Chapter 12- Sick, Puppy, Love
I was in the in between stage of half awake and half asleep. Sounds of seagulls calling out to one another were heard above me. I stretched, feeling the sand shift under me. My eyes slowly opened. Sora was still fast asleep next to me. I pulled myself up, using my arm to keep me in an upright position. That's when I realized Sora and I had fallen asleep on the beach. My heart skipped a beat, 'What will my parents think?' I looked at Sora and bit my bottom lip. I was about to stand up when it hit me, 'Wait, my parents aren't home.' I let out a small laugh, and leaned over to Sora. I kissed his cheek gently. His eyes slowly opened. A small smile appeared on his face.
"G'morning," he said sleepily as he sat up and stretched. "What time is it?"
"I don't know, I left my cell phone and watch at home," I said looking out at the ocean.
"But by the looks of it, it's still morning since the sun isn't too high up." Sora looked out to the ocean too, shielding his eyes from the suns rays. I looked at him. "So are you feeling any better?"
"Tons," Sora replied kissing me. He still sounded kind of sick, but it didn't seem to bother him.
"That's good to hear," I said smiling after the kiss. We sat there looking at each other, when something interrupted us. Sora's stomach growled. I laughed. "Well, I can tell you're hungry." He nodded patting his rumbling tummy. I stood up wiping the sand off of me.
"So where do you want to go eat?" Sora asked as he stood up to do the same.
"How about we go to my house, and I'll cook you breakfast," I suggested.
"Wow, being your boyfriend is great, you'll cook for me and cater to all my needs," Sora laughed. I hit him gently in the arm.
"Hey, if that's what you think this relationship is all about, then I'm calling it quits," I said, jokingly of course. I could never break up with Sora.
He hugged me. "I'm just kidding. I wouldn't let you do all that for me, this relationship is all fifty-fifty. We work together from now on," Sora said. I smiled up at him. "Let's go." When we got to my house, he sat down at the counter, while I made pancakes. "Mmm, they smell good."
"They are good, you could ask my family, well that is if they were home," I said. "But then again, if they were home, you wouldn't be here." We both laughed.
"Good thing they're not home then," he said. I nodded and went back to making the pancakes. After they were done, I handed him a plate, and took mine over to sit by him. We both ate all that we could manage. After, he agreed to do the dishes for me. He was by the sink with his hands in the running water, wiping the syrup off of the plate. I leaned over his shoulder.
"Good job," I said patting his head as if he were a little puppy. Sora turned to face me; he dipped his hand under the water and flicked his fingers, splashing me with water. My mouth dropped open. I gave him a smirk; I leaned against him, causing his back to lean against the sink. I trapped him in a kiss. While he was caught under my spell, I put my hand under the running water and quickly back away from Sora. I splashed him back. Water dripped from his face giving me the same dumbfounded look I had given him. I knew it was war. Sora turned around cupping his hands under the water. I turned around looking for a squirt bottle and remembered it was under the sink. When I turned back, Sora splashed me. We both laughed as the water dripped from my face onto the floor.
"You better run for it," Sora said cupping his hands under the water again. My eyes widened and I let out a small scream before running out of the kitchen. I stopped when I got into the hallway. "Run Kairi!" I heard him say, his voice getting closer. I ran up the stairs, noticing Sora right behind me.
"You can't catch me!" I called back to him as I ran into my room. What a stupid mistake, there wasn't anyway out of my room except for the way that I had just entered, but Sora was too close behind for me to run the other way. I turned to face Sora who ran up next to me, he grabbed a hold of me, causing us to fall back onto my bed. He started to tickle me. I couldn't stop laughing. "Sora… stop…. Okay, okay…. You… win…" I said through my laughter.
"What was that, I couldn't understand you," he said continuing to tickle my sides.
"I… said… you win!" I laughed some more. I saw him smiling.
"Sorry, still didn't catch that," Sora said with a small laugh.
"YOU WIN!" I yelled. My cheeks and stomach hurt so bad from laughing and smiling so much. Sora stopped tickling me. I sat up holding my sides.
"That's what I thought," he said with a successful smile. I didn't want to argue since I knew the price would be him tickling me again. I kissed him instead. He stood up, looking down at me. "Well, thanks for last night, and the great breakfast."
"You're leaving?" I pouted. He nodded.
"I got to get home, remember, my mom thinks I'm at Riku's," Sora said pulling me up. "Don't worry, when I get better officially, then we can be together all you want."
"Hum, alright. I hope you get better soon then!" I said with a big smile.
"Thanks," he laughed. "I'll see to you later. I love you."
"I love you, too." We walked downstairs and I kissed him goodbye at the door.
My parents came home a couple days later. I was happy they were; it got pretty lonely being home alone. I sat up in my bed, letting out a yawn. I was so tired and cold. I pulled the blankets over me. My mom came in.
"Come on Kairi, you need to get ready for school," she said. I just looked at her with my heavy eyes. She came closer to me feeling my head. "You don't look so good. You're head is kind of warm. Maybe you should stay home."
"I got to get to school, there is a test in Math. My grade will be a 'C' if I get a good grade. I actually know the stuff," I said standing up. My mom gave me that concerned look.
"You could always make it up," my mom said.
"I'll be okay, don't worry."
"I have to worry, I'm your mother." I rolled my eyes and went into my bathroom. I checked my reflection. My cheeks were pinker then normal. I placed my hand over my forehead. It was kind of warm. I shook my head, and took a warm shower. I got dressed and ate breakfast. Since it was towards the end of November, it was kind of cold. I grabbed Sora's jacket, and a scarf. Sora, Namine and Cloud met me downstairs.
"Bye mom," I said closing the door and walking out into the crisp autumn air.
"Kairi, you don't look too good," Cloud said.
I looked at him. "Don't worry about me, I'm okay. Really I am," I said trying to reassure everyone I was fine. I didn't feel too good, but I didn't want to miss this math test.
"Cloud's right, you don't look good," Namine said to me putting the back of her hand against my forehead.
"Nam, I'm okay, trust me," Sora wrapped his arm around me as I shook her hand a way from me.
"I think I gave you my fever," he said nervously.
"You guys didn't kiss while you were sick did you?" Cloud asked Sora, who nodded. "Yeah, then Kairi probably got it." I shook my head. We walked to school in silence. Our first two classes went by semi-fast. 3rd period math was up next. I sat in my seat that was next to the window. Sora sat next to me, Namine sat behind me and Cloud sat behind Sora.
"Kairi, you don't look so good," Cid said who was sitting in front of me.
"I've heard," I said getting a little annoyed of hearing it.
"Well, maybe you should go to the nurse because I mean you don't look good at all," he said. Sora looked at me.
"He's right," Sora agreed tilting his head.
"I'll be alright, don't worry!" The bell rang, and our teacher, Mr. Johnson gathered our attention.
"Okay, clear your desks except for a pencil," Mr. Johnson said. We all did what we were told. He passed out the papers row-by-row starting with mine first. Cid handed me three tests. I passed two of them back to Namine. Once everyone had their test, Mr. Johnson spoke up again. "No talking, and good luck. You may begin."
I wrote my name, period and the date at the top of the page. I looked at the first question. My vision became blurry. I rubbed my eyes and the question came into focus again. 'Solve by factoring. 9x(squared) -15x + 6 0' (A/N: I really had to do that problem on a test, and it sucked!) I looked up from my paper and looked at everyone who were all busily writing their answers down. I did this on a review, but nothing was coming in clear. I took off my jacket and scarf. It was getting pretty warm. Sora looked sideways at me.
"What are you doing?" he mouthed to me. I fanned my face with my hand showing him I was warm. He gave me a half nod and went back to work. I looked back at my paper. I got the chills and got cold again, so I put the jacket and scarf back on. Sora looked at me again. I gave him a half smile. My tested awaited me, so I looked at my paper once again. I still hadn't written a single answer down. I was starting to panic. My vision once again went blurry and I got dizzy. I placed my hand over my head and closed my eyes. I didn't feel good at all. I slowly opened my eyes and raised my hand.
"Yes Kairi?" Mr. Johnson said from the head of the class.
"Can I got the nurse, I don't feel too good," I said.
"You don't look good. I think you do need to go to the nurse, you're excused," he said. I stood up, almost falling back down. I caught myself by placing my hand on the desk. I shook my head as everything went fuzzy and back to normal. I was getting awfully light headed. Everyone had their eyes on me. I kept my hand to my forehead as I walked towards the door. I reached out for the handle but everything went black before I reached it.
I woke up to something licking my face and a wet nose rubbing against my cheek. I opened my eyes noticing I was in my bed. Sora was sitting next to me on my bed petting the cutest little golden retriever puppy. It continued to lick my face happily wagging its tail.
"Aw, Sora, it's so cute!" I exclaimed hugging the little puppy.
"Guess what," he said.
I looked up at him. "What?" I asked, as the little puppy jumped into Sora's lap trying to lick him.
"She's yours," Sora said with a smile petting the dog. My mouth dropped open. "After you passed out in school, I waited in the nurses office with you for your mom to come pick you up, and I mentioned seeing an ad in the paper selling puppies. I asked if it would be okay if I bought you one and waited in your room with it after school. She said that it would be okay with her." I looked at the puppy that had the cutest big brown eyes and perfectly gold fur.
"I can keep her?" I asked in disbelief. Sora nodded. I smiled wide. "THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!" I exclaimed hugging Sora and then the puppy. He laughed at how upbeat I was for being sick. "I would kiss you but I don't want to get you sick again."
"You better make up for it then when you do get better," Sora said winking. I laughed. We both focused our attention to the hyper little puppy. "So what are you going to name her?"
"Hum…" I said thinking about it. "I know! Her new name will be Princess." I smiled holding Princess. "Remember when you said that I was a princess and I needed to be treated like one by my future boyfriend?" Sora nodded. "Well you're my future boyfriend, but I'll just take the roll of queen and you'll be the king, and this little puppy right here, is our princess." I said with a small laughed as Princess had her mouth open and her tongue hanging out of her mouth shaking her butt because her tail swayed back and forth very fast.
"Sounds good, my queen," Sora laughed. We both kissed Princess who returned it with a kiss of her own.
A/N: I hope you all liked it! I can't wait to hear your reviews!
