Spy School
Me: I would like to thank everyone for all the fantastic reviews. I would just like to say a few things to falcon. Now where should I start... your reviews were interesting. I would like to tell you that I know that my Grammar/Spelling are not perfect but I have always been like that. I've had that problem since I was born. I would also like to say that I will not be changing any of my chapter to add stuff. Writing stories, for me, is a learning experience so therefore I will not change them other than for a Spelling/Spelling check after I have finished the whole story. I think it was a bit pointless of you to write four reviews rather than just one big review. Oh and for the whole Squall prefers to be Leon, well, I changed it since it is an AU story and I wanted it that way. Thank you for your constructive criticism but it was unnecessary. I write my stories the way I want them. I'm sorry if any of that sounded rude but I was just putting across my point. Thank you.
Chapter Six
A while later that day, Sephiroth and Riku were left on the swings. Cloud and Aeris had been called into Cid's office. Squall and Yuffie had been elected to do the food shopping for the week. The sun in the sky was beginning its downward descent, and casting a pale glow through the little grey clouds. Sephiroth looked at Riku, who was smiling contently to him self, looking at the ground. "So how you feel, knowing that Sora likes you back?"
Riku looked up at the older youth. "I... I love him. I sort of realized that both you told me he liked me back. But it feels good knowing that he does like me, more than a friend. Even if he doesn't love me back."
Sephiroth smiled at his younger brother. "Why don't you tell him how you feel?"
"I can't. There's no way I can speak to him on his own, Kairi has firmly attached herself to him." Riku let out an exasperated sigh, his mood dropping.
Sephiroth lifted up his arm and pointed at his watch. "You could talk to him via this thing."
Riku immediately cheered up. "I never thought of that." Riku pressed a button on his watch. "Light are you there? Can you speak normal?"
"Riku? Is that you?" Said a young male voice.
Riku's eyes sparkled with delight. "Hey Sora. Yeah, it's me. I was wondering if I could talk to you face-to-face, in private?"
A voice in the background could be heard. Then Kairi's voice came in loud and clear through the watch. "Sorry Riku. Sora and I are busy tonight."
Riku looked at Sephiroth, who just shrugged his shoulders. "What do you mean you're busy?" Asked Riku.
"Sora and I are going to the cinema." Kairi said smugly.
"Like a date?" Asked Riku trying to keep the hurt out of his voice.
"No. Not a date." Said Sora quickly. "It's orders."
Sephiroth decided that he wanted to join the conversation so he pressed a button on his watch. "Cloud." Purred the older silver haired youth.
"Yes, baby?" Cloud purred in response.
"Did you hear their convo?"
"Yes I did. And I know what you're thinking. I would love to go to the cinema with you baby but... I've got orders to go with Aeris." Said Cloud sadly.
"What?" Said Sephiroth staring in shock at his watch. 'Cid has got away with a lot of things but not taking Cloud away from me.' Thought Sephiroth. The two silver haired brother looked at each other. "Well then. Riku, I think we should crash this party. What do you think?" Sephiroth smirked.
Riku smiled back. "I think we should." Riku talked into his watch. "Hey Heartless go you guys want to join us?"
"Yeah! Of course we're coming too." Shouted Yuffie, cheerfully. "This is so cool. The whole gang's together."
Sephiroth shook his head at the ninja's antics. "Well I guess that's settled. We're all going to the cinema." Sephiroth switched off his watch, and Riku did the same. "Now all you have to do his talk to him."
"Yeah." Riku sighed. Like that will be easy.
Riku, Sephiroth, Cloud, Aeris, Squall and Yuffie all stood just inside the cinema door, waiting for Sora and Kairi. When the said two did arrive the whole gang went to get tickets.
"So what are we going to see?" Asked Cloud, as he tried to loosen Aeris's death grip on his arm.
"Sora and I are going to see 'Love Actually'." Said Kairi, happily.
"Cloud and I are going to see that too." Giggled Aeris.
Sora and Cloud looked at each other, disgusted. "You have to be joking, right? That's all girly romance stuff." Cloud said, his voice clearly stating that he didn't want to go.
"Cloud's right." Said Sora. "We need action. A little bit of romance and lovely dovey stuff is fine as long as it's only a little bit."
"Your orders were to do what we want, and we want to see it. So you have to come with us." Kairi said as she pulled Sora to the ticket booth. Aeris did the same with Cloud who was protesting the whole way. "No way will I be caught dead in some sad girly show. NO WAY!"
Sephiroth looked at Riku and the silver haired brother went after their spiky haired 'friends'. Sephiroth took hold of Cloud's free hand. "Don't worry, babe. I'm coming with you."
Cloud relaxed a bit. "Sephy." Aeris saw what had happened and continued to pull Cloud along, who was in turn pulling Sephiroth, into the cinema room.
Riku saw that Kairi had now attached her self on to poor Sora's arm. Riku also saw the disapproving look on the brunette's face. "Hey Sora."
Sora looked at Riku and smiled. No matter how much Kairi did to him, if Riku was there then everything would be fine. "Hey."
"Would you mind if I came in with you?"
Sora's eyes widened with surprise and shook his head. "No I don't mind. You sure?"
Riku nodded. "Yeah, I'm sure." Riku smiled at his shorter friend. "Anyway if I don't like it then I can just fall asleep. Catch up on some z's."
Sora chuckled and smiled. "True, true."
Kairi, Sora and Riku walked into the show leaving Squall and Yuffie. Squall was standing with his hands on his hips while Yuffie leaned on him.
"Well that was interesting." Stated Yuffie. "What do you want to see?"
Squall put one arm around Yuffie's shoulders. "If you don't mind I would like to see 'Love Actually'."
Yuffie looked up and gave Squall a quizzical look. "Really?"
"Yeah. I'm all out on the action stuff right now." Waving his hand in dismissal.
Yuffie smiled, brightly. "Okay." She ran pulling Squall with her. When they got into the cinema room, the six other members of the gang were arguing, as usual.
"What we say goes. Daddy's orders." Stated Aeris to Sephiroth.
"Cloud's MY boyfriend. Don't forget that you, bimbo." Sephiroth poked Aeris in the chest, forcefully, which made Aeris take a step back.
"Don't you dare touch me you, scumbag."
Sephiroth was glaring dagger at Aeris and she doing the same. Sephiroth was so tempted to just hit her that he completely forgot about the movie, which had just started. No one took HIS Cloud away from him then called HIM a 'scumbag'. Sure he didn't have the same upbringing as Aeris but that didn't make him any lower than her.
Cloud sighed to him self, knowing full well that this argument wasn't going to sort it's self out. He placed a hand on Sephiroth's chest. "Hush baby." Cloud gently tugged on the taller man's long silver locks. Sephiroth leaned down and Cloud whispered into his ear. "Let her get her own way for now, but later on, it will be just you and me." A shiver ran down the silver youth's spine.
Sephiroth straightened up and smirked at Aeris. "Fine then."
Aeris and Kairi started to speak in whispers. "Alright. Aeris first, then Cloud, then Sora then myself." Said Kairi.
"What about the rest of us? You not got a seating plan for us?" Said Yuffie in mock surprise. The Kramer sisters stuck their tongues out at the ninja, who did the same back.
"You can sit where ever you want." Said Kairi as she dismissed then with a wave. She took her seat next to Sora.
Sephiroth, who was standing beside Riku, whispered. "I say we sit behind them, then we could still talk to Cloud and Sora." Riku nodded. The two silver haired youths took their seats.
Yuffie looked at the scene in front of her. "Do you ever feel left out?"
Squall nodded. "All the time." Squall took a seat next to Riku, who was next to Sephiroth.
For Riku and Spehiroth the film felt like it took forever. At first they both tried to talk their spiky haired friend but, every time, just before they could tap them, one of the Kramer sisters would turn around and glared at them, so much to say that the silver haired brothers never paid much attention to the movie.
Sometime during the film Sora rested his head on Cloud's shoulder and fell asleep. Cloud also fell asleep, resting his head on Sora's. Aeris and Kairi had both watched the whole thing happily, 'awing' every so often. Yuffie had sat in her seat hugging her knees with a content smile on her face. Squall had watched it with a look of indifference on his face, so no one could tell if he enjoyed the movie or not.
Kairi and Aeris had to wake up Sora and Cloud. The whole gang walked into the main part of the cinema building. Kairi pulled Sora back and pushed him against the wall.
"Kairi, what are you doing?" Asked Sora, confused.
Kairi looked behind herself and saw Riku walking towards her and Sora. She pushed herself closer to Sora and kissed him. Stood on his and as he was about to scream she dived her tongue into his mouth. Sora couldn't really understand what was happening, he had never been kissed before. He did the only thing he thought would work, which happened to being to push Kairi's tongue out with his own and closed his eyes in concentration.
Riku stopped walking when he saw Sora and Kairi together. He quickly turned on his heels and ran out the way he had just come. Sora opened his eyes and saw Riku's retreating back. 'Oh no he must have saw.' Thought Sora as he pushed Kairi away. He took off after Riku. "Riku!" Sora shouted.
Riku stopped running when he got halfway through the main area of the cinema. He turned around just as Sora flung his arms around Riku waist, hugging him tightly. Riku narrowed his eyes at the shorter boy. "Sora, get off me." Riku said as he struggled to pull the brunette off, he held Sora's arms at the brunette's sides.
"I'm sorry, Riku." Said Sora lowering his gaze.
"Sorry for what? What were you expecting?" Asked Riku. Sora raised his head, slightly confused. "What? You thought I would be upset seeing you kissing Kairi?" Riku faked a chuckled. "You're my friend, Sora, that's all."
"But I thought..."
"Well whatever you thought. You thought wrong." Riku stated as he let go of Sora.
Sora gave Riku a strange look. He changed his tactics. "So you won't mind if I ask Kairi out?"
Riku shrugged his shoulders. "Nope. Go ahead." Said Riku, his voice wasn't giving anything away about how he felt but his eyes gave away everything. All the pain that this was really doing to him seemed to shine out through his emerald green eyes. But he wouldn't admit it to anyone. No one.
Sora turned and walked up to Kairi, who had just walked into the room. 'He won't go through with this. He can't.' Thought Sora. "Kairi?"
"Yes Sora." Kairi replied sweetly. She giggled her little girly way, smiling brightly at Sora.
"Would you be my girlfriend?" Sora asked. Kairi nodded and giggled again. Sora took her hand pair walked out of the building. 'Please stop me.' Thought Sora as he left Riku in the middle of the building.
The silver haired youth clenched his hands and turned on his heels and started to walk towards the other exit. Sephiroth, Cloud, Aeris, Yuffie and Squall had all witnessed the scene in front of them. Sephiroth ran from Cloud's side and stood in front of Riku, his hands on the younger boys shoulders. "Aren't you going to get him back?" Asked Sephiroth.
Riku glared at the floor. "Why should I?"
"You love him. You should go after him."
"Why? He would never accept me."
"Why?"
"He doesn't like me. I saw him kissing Kairi."
"Maybe she forced him."
Riku looked up, everything Sephiroth was saying was making his inside tear apart. He glared hatefully at Sephiroth. "You can't force someone to use their tongue!" Yelled Riku. Sephiroth looked shocked and didn't reply but he did let Riku go.
Riku pushed pass Sephiroth and headed out of the building. "Where are going?" Sephiroth asked concerned.
"I'm going for a walk." Riku replied, without turning around. "I'll be back later."
Sephiroth nodded. "Okay."
Riku exited the building and was walking not really caring where he went. 'I don't love him. I don't love him.' Riku thought, repeating it to himself like a mantra. He did finally look around. He found himself at the pier. He walked to the end and sat down, his legs hanging off the end. "I don't love him." Riku said to himself, as tears built up in his eyes. 'Then why do you hurt so much?' His mind questioned as tears ran down his cheeks. 'And why are you crying?' "I'm not crying." Riku wiped away the tears, furiously. 'Yes, you are.' "I'm not." Riku pulled his legs up and wrapped his arms around them. He lowered his head to his knees, crying freely.
"I'm not." He whispered.
Me: ::hides behind Riku:: Please don't kill me. I know you all want Aeris and Kairi dead.
Sora: I want Kairi dead too.
Riku: Me three.
Me: If you be nice I'll kill her. ::comes out of hiding:: Review please. She'll die sooner.
Sora: Does that mean she'll die next chapter?
Me: No but she will die soon. ::Peace sign:: Promise!
