My Angel
"Get off of me!"
Sora's eyes wrenched open and he sat up on the cold, hard concrete . . . utterly alone. "W-what happened . . . ?" he looked around. There was no one in sight, just another feather resting on his lap. The 14 year old rubbed his head and shut his eyes. "Argh!" He cried out in frustration, "Why can't I remember you?!"
"I assure you . . ."
The keyblade wielder jumped up and looked around. "W-who are you?! Where are you?!" Still, there was no one in sight, but he could see no one. The voice was most likely a boy's, and it was smoother than ice.
"You ask too many questions, Sora. . ."
"I . . ." his sky blue eyes lit up, looking around some more. He couldn't point out which direction the person was at, because it seemed like he was everywhere. "Why can't I know you? Do I know you?"
"In a sense, you do . . . But enough talk for now . . . You'd better get home."
"Where are you?" Sora whined, spinning around to look behind him.
"I'm . . . just always with you."
"H-hey! I wanna know your name! Who are you? How do you know me? Why are you always with me?!" he called different questions to the sky, hearing them echo.
But no reply came back this time. Sora knew that he wasn't going to be answered, but he didn't feel alone. He knew that someone was there. He knew . . . someone was always going to be there. The 14 year old let out a sigh, hanging his head. "I wonder what Riku's going to think about this . . ." he smiled slightly, and then finished his walk home.
"Sora! Where were you?! I was worried sick! And is that a bruise on your cheek?!" Sora just sighed, walking past his mother towards his room. "And why are you always in your room?" He continued walking. "And what are all those feathers?!" He ran this time, and shut his door quickly.
"No one understands . . ." Sora whispered breathlessly. "Not even Riku . . ." he pursed his lips and walked over towards his bed, looking out the window, which was now always opened. Black birds appeared to be swimming in the now-darkened sapphire sky, drenched in pale moonlight. As Sora watched them, he spotted one bird in the back of the group.
It was white.
Immediately, he shot straight up in his bed. "What if . . ."
"If angels really exist?"
"AH!" Sora's gaze tore behind him, seeing Riku. "Riku . . ." he began, blue optics looking longingly at his friend. "I'm sorry about earlier. I just took off and—"
"It's okay."
"Really?"
"Yeah, it's all good and well. Your mom says something's wrong with you. Is there?" the older boy asked, sitting down on the bed next to his friend.
"O-of course not!" Sora lied, looking away from Riku. He knew that by one look in the eye, Riku would be able to know everything.
"Sounds like fib to me!" Riku grinned, placing a hand firmly on Sora's shoulder. "Are you okay? I heard you got jumped? Or is it angels again?"
Sora winced slightly when Riku said 'angels', but regained his posture and forced a smile. "I just hope those guys left," was all he said, pointing to the bruise on his cheek.
"I should walk home with you."
Sora would've usually said 'yes', but he didn't this time. Walking home from school was the easiest time for him to try to figure out who his "angel" was. And if Riku was there, he'd think he was crazy. But he could also prove that there really was an angel, but it's like his angel's presence disappeared when Riku came around. But either way, he was safe—with both Riku and by himself . . . er, with his "angel".
"No, I'm fine," he said instead, forcing yet another smile.
"That's okay. I'll walk home with you tomorrow, anyway. Your mom wants me to, so I guess I have to," Riku shrugged, getting up.
"But—"
"Later!"
And with that, Riku was gone, and Sora could sense his angel's presence once again. "I guess . . . that's it for now . . ." he looked out the window. The skies were clear, neither bird nor beast in sight. There was just . . . the sky. And that was all . . .
For now . . .

Author Notes: Bwahaha. More suspense. XD Anyway, hope you liked it. xX; I tried to make it longer, but I like putting you in suspense. And I ran out of ideas. XD Sorry. But who is this angel? And why does it appear that he doesn't like Riku? Why are Sora and I asking so many damn questions? Tune in to the next chapter of "My Angel"!
. . . Whoa. It's like a t.v. series. Oo; Anyway, review!
