Chapter Fourteen: Forgiveness
-
((.:Kairi's POV:.))
I was sitting on my window bench, just looking at the sky, it was dusk, and everything just seemed to be glowing. Tokyo tower was completely lit up along with the whole city, even Rainbow Bridge.
I didn't even bother to tell Sora-kun about what had happened. I know it wasn't a big deal, but it was the first time Sakura-chan was never mad at me, we had never had a fight over four years of friendship. I sighed.
"Usa-chan," I heard a voice.
I turned around, to see Sora-kun's eyes clouded with concern. I thought of him with Shigatsu again, which made me almost cry. Though he hadn't gone out with her since two years ago, he still talked to her. "Nani?" I asked.
Sora-kun blinked, "What's the matter, Kai-chan?"
I blushed when he called me that, he really never called me that, but everyone else did, but my heart always soared when he said it, there was just something about the way he says it. I shook my head and looked back out the window.
Sora-kun sighed, "Kairi-chan, please tell me what's the matter."
I took out my small red pigtails, "Sakura-chan is mad at me. That's all."
"That's all!" said Sora-kun sarcastically, "You and her have never been in a fight or have been mad each other EVER!"
I only shrugged.
"What is she mad at you for, Kairi-chan?" Sora-kun asked.
"Because I told Naminé-chan about what she had said about her last year, she claims that I'm lying." I said, with no emotion in my voice.
"Nani? You mean when she said that Naminé-chan was annoying?" he asked raising an eyebrow.
"Hai," I said nodding. I tosseled my crimson hair, it was wavy now because of being in pigtails all day. (A/N they weren't in braids persay cuz she has short hair, but because on them being in her hair all day it kinda left a dent. . )
"Ah," Sora-kun said, "Maybe you should talk to Naminé-chan tomorrow." Sora-kun walked to the middle of my room. "If I was alive, I'd be able to help you."
Tears welled up in my eyes, "Sumimasen, Sora-kun." I whispered.
Sora-kun had his arms behind his head at looked at me confused, "Nani?"
I sniffled, "I'm sorry you died, it was my fault! If I had moved you wouldn't of been crushed."
Sora-kun walked up to me, "No it isn't, I'd rather have me die than you okay." Sora-kun closed his eyes slowly, and turned away from me as if he was disappointed with something.
I just looked at him, I stood up, "Um, I'm going to take a shower and get ready for bed."
Sora-kun looked at me and nodded.
I sighed as I picked out my pajamas. I stopped at the door my hand on the handle, I turned to him, "Sora-kun?"
"Nani," he asked raising his eyebrows.
"Why didn't you be with Shigatsu-san instead of me?" I asked, my dusk colored eyes clouded with pain.
Sora-kun looked at me, "Simply because I don't like her."
I froze, I nodded to him and walked out of the door.

((.:Sora's POV:.))
Kairi-chan had went to bed about an hour or so ago. I've just been watching her. She's real cute when she sleeps. The moonlight from her window that shined down on her seemed to make her glow.
"Kairi-chan," I whispered.
Luckily she didn't hear me, I sighed.
.:Flashback:.
It was around the beginning of sixth grade, also the first year of middle school. I had only two classes with Kairi-chan. One, with my sister, three with Riku-kun, and two with Syaoran-kun. We all shared lunch together because all grades have their own separate times.
I was walking to my history class when I bumped into somebody, "Owie," I heard someone whimper. I looked down to see a girl from my history class, Shigatsu.
I picked up her books, and held a hand out for her, she grabbed it saying thank you. I gave her, her books, "Gomen, Shigatsu-san." I apologized.
"No, it's okay," she said softly, she ran her fingers through her dirty blonde hair, she smiled at me, and I blushed slightly. Her hazel eyes sparkled in the light. "Want to walk to class together?" she asked, a soft blush glowed on her small cheeks.
"Un," I said nodding as we walked to class together.
-
Within a couple of weeks I had a crush on her, and I was pretty sure she had a crush on me too . Oh course I still loved Kairi-chan, but I could never tell what her real feelings were. And also I would never be able to tell her that. So I decided to give a go with Shigatsu-chan. (A/N Well Z- Not going to say his name! I mean I had myself right open to u! Grrr. What about sci. camp! And what do u do? Go out with Julia and April! t(T.Tt) Oh hi! Anywhoz yes Shigatsu let him call her chan as she gets to call him kun okayz!)
So after school, when Sakura-chan and Kairi-chan had cheerleading tryouts I asked Shigatsu-chan to meet me at the park. (A/N yes the one he and kairi almost kissed how mean is that? . )
Though the funny thing was I didn't feel nervous at all, no butterflies in my stomach, just nothing. I leaned up against a tree I looked up to see it was the same one that Kairi-chan and me almost kissed under, I felt a pang of guilt. Did she even like me? Did she ever? She could've been caught in the moment.
"Sora-kun!" I heard a voice call, I looked up Shigatsu-chan she was looking at me curiously.
"Konnichiwa," I said quietly.
Shigatsu-chan rubbed one of her hazel eyes, "So what was it you wanted to talk to me about, Sora-kun?" She looked at me giving me a cute smile.
I blushed slightly, not like I did when Kairi-chan smiled. "Um, I wanted to tell you that I like you."
Shigatsu-chan chan smiled widened as she blushed furiously, "Me too! I like you a lot Sora-kun!"
I smiled, "So will you go out with me, Shigatsu-chan?"
"Hai!" she said happily. She practically tackled me as she hugged me.
-
Next day at school was interesting… I had invited Shigatsu-chan to eat lunch with me and the others.
Shigatsu-chan and I walked up to the table, everybody wa already there, I sat down next to Syaoran-kun, I was across from Kairi-chan as Shigatsu-chan was across from my sister, "Sora-kun, who's you're new friend?" asked Kairi-chan who was looking at Shigatsu-chan.
I gave a fake smile, "This is my girlfriend, Shigatsu Aya, my girlfriend."
Kairi-chan and Sakura-chan's eyes widened, "As of when?" asked my twin sister.
I looked down, "As of yesterday." Shigatsu-chan was just simply smiling.
Riku-kun, just looked at me as Syaoran-kun congratulated me. Kairi-chan stood up, she extended her hand out to my girlfriend, "Well Shigatsu-san it was very nice to meet you. But sorry to say I must leave, I forgot one of my books for my next class in my locker."
Shigatsu-chan smiled, "Nice to meet you too,…" she said trailing off not knowing her name.
"Kairi," Usa-chan said.
"Kairi-san," Shigatsu-chan said smiling as they let go of each other's hands. Kairi-chan walked pretty fast from the lunch area. Sakura-chan continued to 'talk' to my girlfriend as well as Riku and Syaoran-kun.
(A/N Wow harsh… Never happened to me thank Gawd. But the guy I knew was still just as bad. Damn him)
.:End of Flashback:.
I sighed, I hated those days, and we had continued to go out for a month, just only a few days after Sakura-chan and my birthday, December second. (A/N I remember I had said their b-day was in that month correct day? Wait I made it the same as that ignorant fool I used to like oh well dammit)
Shigatsu-chan took it pretty hard but seemed to under stand, she knew I had feelings for Kairi-chan, and she still wanted to be friends which made me feel so much better about breaking up with her.
I looked at Kairi-chan again, I walked towards her, and leaned down to her face, and tried to kiss her, but then again, I went right through her, I sighed as I brought my face back up, "Aisheteru, Kairi-chan…"

Next Day, Morning
((.:Kairi's POV:.))
I woke up to morning sun shining on my ivory face, I let my dusk colored eyes flutter open slowly, I saw Sora-kun standing in front of my window, arms crossed, just staring. He looked at me, "Ohayo,"
"Ohayo," I said with sleepily.
My eyes widened when it hit me, I had the strangest dream, I thought I heard, Sora-kun tell me that he loved me, I blushed. But the thing was, I only had liked him not full blown love him… (A/N No it wasn't a dream…. Just for sum of ya dense ppl lolz j/k)
Sora-kun looked at me funny, "Kairi-chan, are you feeling okay?" he raised an eyebrow at me.
"N-nani? "Hai, why wouldn't I be?" I asked , bringing my covers closer to me, it always seemed like very morning that I was cold.
"You seem a little flushed that's all." He said shaking his head.
I smiled sheepishly, I knew he was referring to my blush, though he was too dense to know that it was actually blush, "Aww, is Oreo-kun worried about Usa-chan?" I said in a babyish cutesy-wutesy kind of voice.
Sora-kun just raised an eyebrow and shook his head chuckled. I giggled. "What's the matter?" I asked noticing how different he was acting.
He looked at me and shook his head, "Nothing, "
"Ah,"
Knock Knock
Someone was at my door, "Hai!"
My father, Katsuro, came in, his indigo eyes scanning my room, he turned his head a couple of times making what was left of his red hair move. "Otou-san, what ever is the matter?"
He looked at me, "I thought I heard you talking to someone,"
"Uhhh, Daddy are you losing your mind, who could I possibly be talking to?" I asked in English.
My father sighed walked up to me and ruffled my hair, "Well okay, sweetie, I must am be losing it of old age." He replied also in English.
"You're not that old," I said.
"Thanks for thinking so," he said as he kissed my head. "See you later," he told me as he walked out the door.
Sora-kun just seemed relieved when he left for some reason, Sora-kun never liked my father even though he never had even said anything. "Nani?" he asked looking at me, his electric blue orbs, showing so much wonder.
"Well I need to get dressed, so could you not look at me." I said rubbing the back of my neck.
Sora-kun pouted, "Aww Kairi-chan, c'mon I died a virgin! Can't you let me see a little somethin' somethin'?"
I just looked at him I know he was kidding, or at least I hope he was, "No! You hentai!" I said giggling. (A/N LiLi-sama I'm sure ur laughing at this… . )
Sora-kun pouted and turned around which made me giggle even harder, "Arigatou."
I got dressed, in a baby pink tank top with a light yellow cami under it, with denim shorts that had a pink ribbon as a belt. I turned to Sora-kun who was still looking the other way, "So what do you think?" I said modeling my outfit.
"Oh why Usa-chan I've never seen you so sexy." Said Sora-kun laughing.
I laughed, "Oh stop it, you're flattering me."
We both laughed. "So, why don't you go to Naminé-chan's?" Sora-kun asked.
I bit my pinky nervously, "I dunno, she could be mad at me too."
Sora-kun looked at me, "Just go, If she is mad at you, you don't want her to stay that way do you?"
"No," I said shaking my head, "Okay, I'll go. Ja!" I said going out the door.
"Ja," he said smiling.
I ran down the stairs, "Okaa-san," I called as I went into the kitchen, "I'll be at Naminé-chan's,"
Okaa-san looked at me, "Kairi-chan, what about breakfast?" she asked.
"I'm not that hungry."
"Okay, sweetie, have fun," she said waving.
"Un!" I said as I ran out the door.
I just ran to her street as much as fast my short legs could take me. I was finally in front of her house. I rang the doorbell, my Uncle Kenta answered it, "Oh Kairi how nice it is to see you." He greeted me in English.
"Hello, Uncle Kenta." I greeted smiling, "Is Naminé here?"
My uncle shook his head, his red hair bopping up and down, "Thanks!" I said heading up the stairs.
I knocked on my cousin's door, "Yes" she answered in English.
I opened the door, and closed it, Naminé looked at me and rolled her light angelic blue eyes. She was painting her light blue room clouds. All of her furniture had plastic covers on it.
"Naminé I'm sorry." I said.
"I know you are." She said still concentrating on her wall.
That surprised me. "Y-you are?" I asked.
She looked at me and slightly smiled, "Well yea, I mean everybody had to think of me as annoying last time I was here, that's when I didn't take my medication. And now I do, and I'm not as hyper as I was." A/N yes she has ADD or w/e it is…)
I didn't say anything and let her continue, she was wearing a pear of old torn up jeans with a large light denim button up, it had tons of paint spots on it, Naminé had always loved to do anything artistic, and she was good at it too. That's why Uncle Kenta and Aunt Annette were letting her paint her own room.
"I know Sakura had said that about me, and really it doesn't bother me, and I could see why she was denying that she said that. Because she didn't want to hurt my feelings." She looked at me and smiled sympathetically. "So I hope everything works out for you two."
"I'm sure it will," I said.
"She's probably going to be here soon," she looked back at her wall, "She's going to help me with painting," she looked at me, "While you're here wanna help?"
"Yeah I said," walking towards her.
"Great!" she said tossing me an over sized tee shirt, I put it on and picked up a brush.
Knock Knock
"Hai," said Naminé-chan reverting back to Japanese, she knew it was Sakura-chan.
Sakura-chan walked in, she froze when she saw me, "Ohayo," I said.
She ignored me and picked up an over sized shirt and slipped it on, and also picked up a brush.
Sakura-chan talked to Naminé-chan a couple times, of course not saying one word to me. I sighed and put down my brush, "Sakura-chan, I'm sorry,"
Sakura-chan just shrugged.
Naminé-chan shook her head, "Sakura-chan, I know you thought I was annoying last time, everybody thought so, and it doesn't bother me anymore, just please make up with Kairi-chan."
Sakura-chan looked at me, "I accept you're apology." She said.
"So, friends?" I asked.
"Hai."
"Kami, arigatou." Said Naminé-chan we all laughed.
Sakura-chan's emerald orbs lit up, "Guess what!" she asked.
"Nani?" Naminé-chan and I asked.
"Yesterday we found out that Selphie-chan has a crush on Tidus-san, Yuna-chan's boyfriend!"
"Ohmigosh!" I said giggling.
And we gossiped throughout the day.
-
We had finally finished painting Naminé-chan's walls, the day was pretty fun. I was happy. I walked out of my cousin's house, stretching. I looked at the sky, it was already sunset, almost dinnertime! I started walking down the street.
Someone caught my eye, dirty blonde, hair and hazel eyes. It was Shigatsu-san! "Oh, Kairi-san," she said when she noticed me.
I had forgotten, that she lived on this street. I sighed, "Konnichiwa, Shigatsu-san."
"I just wanted to say, sorry about what had happened to Sora-kun," she said.
I was surprised, "Why are you apologizing? I mean you went out with him." I said.
"Yea, I know but that was over two years ago." She said rolling her eyes. "But he really cared for you, he used to always talk about you."
I blushed.
"Well I gotta go, maybe we'll see eachother around?" she said heading towards her house.
"Un, sure." I said waving.
I looked at her and smiled, I guess this was the day of forgiveness, my cousin and my bestfriend forgave me, and I forgave Shigatsu-san forever going out with Sora-kun.
