Seducing a Demon
(Riku's P.O.V.)
I watched Cloud leave the kitchen, and sighed gently. My chest felt tight and my lunges felt as though they could no longer draw breath. 'Had I said something wrong? Is that why he left?' I shook my head as Hashiro crawled up my shoulder. 'I'm being paranoid... Aren't I?' I thought to myself as I rubbed Hashiro's head absent mindedly. He bounced and gently rolled into my palm again. "Come on." I whispered as I too, exited the kitchen. He was laid out on the coach now, a book open. His eyes were closed again; a small smile graced his lips. I licked my own, and swallowed with some difficulty. 'Must-restrain-impulse-to pounce!' I thought desperately. I sat on one end of our coffee table, placing Hashiro on the other. I pulled out my crayons and color books (Hey, I've gotta keep my self entertained some how, right?) And set them in front of us. Although I could see Cloud visually becoming annoyed with our chatter, I couldn't stop talking. It's as though I wanted him to drop what he was doing, and pay attention to me. I wanted all of his attention. I was being greedy, and selfish for it. 'Look at me! Talk to me! Want me!' I silently prayed as my brow furrowed in concentration. 'Why won't you want me...?' I asked, as I let all of my tension go. '...And why am I worrying? There is no hope, so why bother...?' His book snapped shut, bringing me out of my trance. As he slid down off of the couch, I saw all nervous tension melt away. He lifted a book off the top of the stack, a handful of colors, and began to color. I grinned at Hashiro, and him at me. We sat and chatted, all three of us, until the afternoon ebbed into evening.
I later stood, and merely stated "I should start dinner." Hashiro stretched, and formed the words
'No, I'll do it. You two should kick back a while,' He shifted 'You seem to really need it. Have you two been getting enough sleep?' Cloud shrugged, and replied while yawning.
"Nah, we've been exterminating some Heartless that have been terrorizing Kingdom Hearts recently."
"You really don't have to, Hashiro. It's your first night out of that moldy old cupboard. You should look around here for a while. Besides, I doubt you could reach the cabinets." Hashiro looked offended.
'Nonsense! That cupboard is not moldy, I keep it as clean as can be expected. And I most certainly can reach those cabinets; Watch!' He stretched and bounced this way and that, until he was sitting in the form of a young girl. "See? Perfect height!" Hashiro's voice was high, but rough around the edges, giving him, er, her a tough sort of air.
"Ha-Hashiro? Wha-What did you do?" I stammered. Hashiro tilted her head to the side, and asked
"Hm? What do you mean?" Her hair swept past her shoulders, and was such a mixture of colors, it's impossible to duplicate. Blue, red, green, and yellow all twined together, and spread out until the color was in describable. Her hair as like a freaking Kaleidoscope! Two little black cat ears peeked out from beneath her hair, and a sleek black tail curved this way and that. Her eyes were now black, and hid whatever thoughts roamed inside of her head. Hashiro was no spectacular beauty, but had a sort of attractive aura about her now. She suddenly pouted.
"What is it?" Cloud asked, his face mildly flushed.
"That wasn't very nice, Riku!"
"What? What did I do?"
"No spectacular beauty, indeed! I'd much rather be cute and mildly interesting and be liked because of my smarts then be beautiful and only wanted for my body! Meanies..." Cloud and I exchanged glances. I turned toward her again.
"How did you-?"
"Know?" She interrupted. "I know everything going on in your heads, and everything you'll say and do. I'm just cool and 'enchanted' like that." Hashiro grinned with pride as she puffed out her chest. She then looked down, and quickly let out all of the air in her lunges. She blushed furiously as she wrapped herself in a blanket hanging off of the sofa.
"Hmm?" Cloud and I looked over the table, and blushed as well. Even with the blanket, we could see the problem. She wasn't wearing any clothes.
"I seem to have forgotten," Hashiro giggled nervously "I can't generate my own clothing..."
"Well, that's no problem, is it?" I asked "You can just turn back, can't you?" Hashiro stared at her feet. "Hashiro?" She shook her head.
"I can change certain shapes easily and remain in that state for days or weeks, but only in simple or complex shapes. This is a full-blown transformation, and takes any where from days, to hours, to weeks to gather enough energy to transfer back..."She shifted under the boy's stunned glances. "And besides, this is the first time I've been in my normal form in centuries. I'm in no hurry to transfer anytime soon; I don't...have to, anymore..." Cloud sighed and pushed me gently over to Hashiro's side.
"Take her up stairs, and get her into some clothes; I'll get dinner made."
"How come I've got to-"
"Because," He said flatly. "She's closer to your size then me, and besides," He continued cooly "She's your pet, and your responsibility."
"Pet?! I am no one's pet! I am very capable of dressing and caring for myself, thank you very much!" Cloud turned to her, his eyes telling her differently.
"Maybe. But he found you, named you, and you are now living in his house, therefore, although you are not his pet so to speak, he still has responsibility over you. Go." He finished sternly, and pointed up the stair case. Hashiro pouted again, and sulked as she walked up the steps, muttering to herself.
"...just like Onii-chan..." She continued to mutter as I followed reluctantly behind. At the top of the stairs, I turned, and looked back at Cloud, who was now massaging his forehead, and muttered
"Just like Tifa..." He then turned, and walked into the kitchen.
*~*~*~*
(Riku's P.O.V.)
"How about this one?"
"No, It's too big."
"This one?"
"No, THAT is too skimpy."
"Then why can you wear it?"
"Because, I won't be bursting, and hanging out of it."
"...Shut up..." Hashiro turned, and showed me another outfit (She'd slipped into an overly large shirt that reached down to her knees.). "Then how about his one?"
"Um...Pants yes; top no." I answered, referring to my largest pair of jeans. It fit her well, only hanging slightly to the side (Yes, her waist is bigger then mine, but she's also been locked up in that cupboard for over a century, far away from an exercise bike). They were black, and silver dragons and emblems wound around the fabric. They rolled up half way down her calves. She let out an annoyed sigh, and dove into my closet again. She fished out a spaghetti-strapped silver top with a black Dragon and shiny green Kanji surrounding it reading: Earth, Wind, Water, Fire, Ice, Electricity, Light, and Darkness. "This one?" I stared at it a moment, and nodded. Hashiro grinned, and tossed it on my bed. I covered my eyes slightly as she twirled across the room. Although she now had clothes, Hashiro still didn't have any undergarments to speak of.
"Hey!" Hashiro suddenly pulled out a white bra with lace and a small cloth rose in the middle, and a pair of pink panties with cherry blossoms strewn across them. "Look it!" I flushed heavily.
"How did- when did those...?" I honestly don't know where those came from! They look like the ones Selphie used to wear... Eep! 'Did I bring Selphie's clothes with me? I was wondering how that top had gotten into my closet....' Yeah, yeah, I'd go over to Selphie's and we'd...dress up...So?! I know of worse things that took place on that island... Had those been Kairi's, they'd have been burned. I'd rather have Hashiro wear nothing under her clothes then Kairi's underwear. I shudder at the thought, and so does Hashiro, apparently.
"Hold on. Hoe- I mean, How many boys did she..."
"Ugh, I don't remember, but the thought makes me sick, that's for damn sure." Hashiro wrinkled her nose.
"And what of Selphie?" I smiled, and looked toward the shirt tossed next to me.
"She was the best girl-who's-a-friend any guy could have."
"She was sweet, then?" I nodded. Hashiro grinned "She looks really nice. I'd like to meet her someday." I looked at her quizzically. 'Hmm? I don't have a picture of Selphie in here...' Hashiro shook her head, and knocked on the top of my head. "In here, simpleton! Your pictures are in here!"
"Oh, go get dressed you hooker, you."
"Not even in your dreams, babe. I wouldn't sell this virgin body of mine for anything." I fell off of my bed.
"You? A virgin? After half a dozen centuries? Wow, sucks for you!" She puffed up again, and answered sharply.
"So? You're one, too. And you can, but won't give it up to the guy you love because you are afraid to love him." I fell off my bed again, and looked up at her with wide eyes.
"Eh?! What was that you, you glob of multicolored gelatine you?!" Hashiro had slid into her undergarments, and was pulling the top on. I blushed, and looked at the carpet.
"I said - ugh - that you - umf - are afraid to - erg - love - mf - and be screwed by - ick- Cloud." I blushed even harder then previously mentioned. The thought of what she had just proposed made my pants seem a *little* too tight. I fidgeted, and bit my lip gently. 'Stop those thoughts now, Riku. No, no, no! No thinky Cloudy in such ways! Stop it!' But this, of course made me think of him like that. When I forced my eyes open, I saw a spaced out glare on Hashiro's face. An idiotic grin was plastered to her face.
"Hashiro? What are you staring at?" She shook out of her trance, and smiled at me.
"Wow; you sure do have an active imagination, Riku! Ooh, Cloud looked hot..." She grinned, and laughed as she danced out of my reach as I lunged for her. "See you down stairs, I smell your 'honey' cooking, and I just can't wait to eat! So hungry, so hungry..." Hashiro 's voice faded as she strolled down the hall.
I was laid across my bed on my stomach when I seriously thought about what Hashiro had said. Maybe I was afraid to love Cloud. He seemed so far out of my reach, and it scared me. I didn't want to be alone again, not here, not in this place, and especially not after Sora. I was afraid that if he knew, he'd leave. He'd pack up, and high-tail it out of here at the first sign of my feelings for him. 'But maybe...I shouldn't be. Maybe, just maybe...He could love me too. I'll do it. I'll get him, and tell him tonight. I have to.' And with this last thought, I too walked silently down the stairs into the kitchen.
*~*~*~*
I adjusted my Navy blue T-shirt, and took the hood off of my head. There were no sleeves, it being the middle of spring, and a zipper in the front. I slipped my hands into my denim pockets. As I walked into the kitchen, I noticed it was unusually dark. "Cloud? Hashiro?" I had my hands stretched out in front of me, so I didn't run into any thing. "Where did everyone go?" A small glimmer of light glittered on the table. "A candle?" Just as I reached out to touch it, another lit up. A small vase with two red roses in it stood in the center of the table.
"For a moment there, I wasn't sure if you'd join me, Riku." I didn't even have to turn around to tell who was speaking to me. I closed my eyes, and breathed deeply. I could smell his sweet scent.
"Cloud..." I murmured gently, sighing slightly as I felt my body go light. I could hear him smirk from behind me. As I felt his chin rest on my shoulder, I tensed.
"Hungry?" He asked quietly; His breath warm against my skin. I sighed again, and nodded.
"A little, I guess..."
"Good." With that last word, he drew away from me, and held my chair out for me. I sat at one end of the table, and Cloud on the other. We sat in silence, small talk passed between us, but nothing extraordinary or scandalous passed in our words or voices. Only our eyes, which never left the others, betrayed our deepest thoughts and desires, and even then the betrayal was momentary.
"So..." I looked at my now empty plate and Cloud fidgeted in his chair. He seemed nervous.
"So." He replied with a sigh. I looked around the dining room, and noticed for the first time that night that Hashiro was not with us.
"Where's Hashiro?" Cloud shrugged and replied
"She just made a sandwich, said she'd be back in a few hours, and left."
"Oh." I stared into, and through, the flickering flames atop the waxy candles at Cloud. I noted the way he glowed faintly in the candle light, and how the flames made him seem all the more beautiful. He suddenly stood, and took both his dish and mine. As I looked up at him, Cloud smiled anxiously. He then hurried into the kitchen. I waited but a few minutes for his return, but each second seemed an eternity he was away. At last, he returned with a smaller saucer, and nodded toward the door, indicating we should go outside. Cloud's cape flowed behind him like an endless river of blood, much like that which would flow from the wound in my heart that was certain to arise, should he not love me as well.
The sky was clear and lovely. The moonlight streamed down in endless curtains. The large garden had been kept by me (along with a few lesser Heartless Cloud and I'd captured in Kingdom Hearts). Everything was in full bloom, even the stony walls themselves were in color. The normally over bold colors of the garden by day had now faded with the silvery sheen of the moon's elegant radiance.
We settled on an elaborately decorated stone bench, (which, coincidently, had soft comforters and throw pillows...) and Cloud silently handed the tray to me. I looked at the pastry on the small dish, and grinned wickedly inside. I dipped my finger into the creamy filling. As I gently licked my fingers clean, I watched Cloud out of the corner of my eye. I saw his eyes glaze over slightly, and smiled around my index finger. I moaned slightly as I finished, and took great pleasure in seeing his eyes widen, and then slip into a look of adoration and worship.
"Mind if I have a taste?" He asked quietly. I smiled sheepishly, and shook my head. He lent in closer, and not another word passed between us as his lips touched mine gently.

Animage: ok..so it didn't have Riku and Cloud's POV in there, but it's an extra long Riku chapter! AND it has the beginning of seduction and smut! Next one will be just Cloud and will be kind of short, but it's smutty and nice.
Anime_Boi: 'Smutty and Nice?' How do you get 'Smutty AND nice?'
Animage: Oh! Did I say smutty and nice? I meant it's NICE AND SMUTTY!!!! XD Yeah! Lemony-ness (ness-ness-ness)!!!!!!!! Yay!!!!!
Anime_Boi: -_-! Yeah.ok..Please review! There's gonna be some crazy stuff happening from here on out, so bring some extra sanity for the unfortunates that have none.*Points to Animage*
Animage: Sanity? Who wants sanity? All it does is make you dull and, well, sane! (Not to mention oodles of fun to mock and make fun of XD) Come see the next chapter soon! I don't own KH or Star Ocean. Enix and.someone else does[Hehe, they can't sue me now! D]
