"Well, neither do you." Sora began. "You couldn't even keep that one girl for very long."

"Don't talk about her like that." Riku said, narrowing his eyes.

"Well, you didn't!" Sora snapped.

"Well, at least I HAD a girlfriend." Riku articulated. Sora stared at Riku for a long time, and wrinkled his nose slightly. "Oh, please, you're so sensitive, Sora."

ok, so that's where you guys left off right?ok thats what i thought! no just kidding!

After standing there for a while, he walked off back to town. He shook his head at the thought of Kairi always talking to Riku instead of him. He walked further down the barren road, and paused to glance at Kairi's home. Her father being the mayor, it was a large mansion on a hill overlooking the ocean. He wondered if he should stop and confront her about it. But then he thought maybe her parents were home and would think something was going on between them, although Kairi's parents always could tell that Sora liked Kairi, and Kairi liked Sora.

Sora shrugged and walked up to the house, and pressed the doorbell. He had never been inside Kairi's house, yet he had always wondered what it would be like on the inside. Just then, Kairi's mother opened the door.

"Oh, hey, Sora." she smiled warmly at him.

"Hi. Um... is Kairi home?" Sora asked.

"No, but she should be home soon. Do you want to wait for her?" she asked.

"Uhr... yeah I guess."

"Why don't I give you the grand tour?" she inquired. Sora looked around the living room. It was massive compared to his. He was tempted to plop down on one of the large white chairs, but he realized his shoes were sandy.

"Yeah, that'd be nice." Sora answered.

"Um, Sora..." Kairi's mother began. "Could you please not wear your shoes inside the house? We just had it steam-cleaned for the 5th time this month."

"You want me to leave my shoes outside?" Sora exclaimed, and Kairi's mother began to laugh.

"Oh, my dear, Sora, no! Just place them on the mat and I'll show you the grand tour." Kairi's mother replied. Sora beamed, knowing he was amusing her, and put his shoes down on the mat, then stepped inside the house. "As you see, this is the living room."

Sora's tour of Kairi's house seemed to last for an hour, up until Kairi's mother brought him upstairs and opened a door that had to be Kairi's room. It was nearly as big as the living room. and she even had a seat there. "You can wait in Kairi's room, sweets."

"Thanks, Mrs. ." (anybody know their last name? anyone?) Sora said. Mrs. closed the door, and Sora wandered around Kairi's room. it smelled like some type of flowers everywhere. He paused to look at her bookshelf. It was decorated with pictures of Sora, Riku, and her around the island. He looked through her books' spines, until he found a leather bound book. He looked around, as if half-expecting Kairi to be there, and pulled it out. The cover was white, and read in black permanent marker: 'Kairi's Diary. KEEP OUT!' Sora, being naturally curious, opened it. All over the pages read: Kairi + Sora, especially in the margins. When he looked at the back page it was covered with little hearts and little s's in the little hearts. He heard Kairi's front door close, and he put the little diary back in its place, and sat down in the chair. He heard feet running up the stairs, and when the door opened, Kairi and Namine walked in, and Kairi shrieked.

"Omigod, Sora, don't ever do that again!" She said, placing her delicate hand on her chest. She panted for a second, and stared at him as he stood up. She slapped him in the arm, while Namine and Sora laughed.

"Sorry about that. I figured your mom told you I was here!" Sora chuckled.

"Well, she didn't!" Kairi panted. She sat down on her bed. "So, why are you here?" Namine shot a look between them, and stifled a giggle.

"Um, I have to go." she said, and walked down the stairs.

"Um, Riku told me all the stuff that you said about me." Sora bit his lip hard, expecting it to bleed. A flush of reds popped up on Kairi's cheeks, and she smiled nervously.

"Oh, um, everything?" Kairi asked.

"Yeah." Sora replied, and he his cheeks go warm. "You really sulk when I don't talk to you?" Kairi got up and sat next to him on her small couch.

"Yeah, Sora. I-uh- I like you alot." Kairi blurted and stared at him to see his reaction. A silence fell upon the both of them. Sora's eyes trailed around her perfume scented room blurring into pinks and purples. "It's just you seem so interested in Lylleigh now and Namine and you never talk to me anymore. It might sound a little selfish but I guess I want you all to myself." Sora wanted to grin, but he thought he would look stupid if he did.

"Well i guess it feels nice to be loved." Sora joked. Another long silence began. Sora watched Kairi stare around the room as if she had never been inside it before. He leaned in a little, and Kairi turned to look at him but-

DUH NUH NUM!
