Chapter 22- The News In Star City

Dear Diary,

My Valentines Day was the best ever. First of all Sora pretended that we weren't going to celebrate it, but then ended up surprising me. He gave me a promise ring. It was so romantic. I love Sora so much. He's completely unbelievable. I truly think he's a dream turned reality. Spring Break is coming up in a little over a month. I can't wait! Well, Cloud and me decided to go back to Star City and visit everyone. Namine is going to one of the most popular islands (A/N: Kind of like the Hawaii of the Destiny Islands.) Sora is going to visit some family for a few days, while everyone else is sticking around town. Josh still hasn't told any of us why he doesn't like his stepsister, Sarah. I guess we'll find out soon, just like what he said. If it's bad, then I don't really know if I want to know. Hope everything is going to go well, we only have a few more months left, what can go wrong, right?

Love always, Kairi

I closed my diary and ran downstairs with my bag on my back. Everyone was waiting for me. It was the actual Valentines Day; so we all knew school was going to be… well let's say head over heals. We headed to school- talk about couples galore. It was kind of an interesting feeling seeing people being nice and sweet to one another. We headed to our lockers. I opened mine up and looked over at Cloud who had just opened his locker. He stepped back looking down at the ground. I noticed a note fall out of his locker.

"Did you write a note to Cloud?" I looked over at Namine. She looked at me confused.

"No. Why?" she said closing her locker. I looked back at Cloud. Sora, Riku and Amanda walked up to us. Cloud picked up the small paper. He slowly unfolded the note, as Namine walked up to him. I watched his eyes move back and forth across the paper as he read it. I saw Namine's mouth drop open. She snatched it out of his hands. "Who wrote this!" She re-read it.

"What's in it?" I asked. She handed me the paper. I decided to read it out loud, but just enough for the six of us to hear it.

'Cloud. I've been watching you from afar. You know me, but not too well. I have strong feelings for you. I can give you anything you would want, at least way more then Namine could. How could you like a girl like her? I'm way better. I'll continue to watch you, until I think the time is right to show you my identity. Hope its soon, (has a winking face on it) love always your secret admirer.'

"Wow…." I said after reading that. "I can't believe she said that about you Nam." I looked at her. She looked pissed.

"What are you going to do?" Amanda asked. It was quiet between all of us. We all exchanged looks.

"There really isn't anything we can do just yet," Cloud said closing his locker. Namine looked at him. He turned around and looked back at her. "I'm not going to leave you for this 'secret admirer' chick."

"What if it's a dude?" Riku asked. Leave it to Riku to come up with the random creepy ideas.

"Ew. That's really gross," I said giving him a disgusted look. He laughed and so did the rest of us. Namine looked down.

"Namine, don't worry. I love you. You never have to worry about us breaking up. You got that?" Cloud used his hand to lift her face up to look at him. 'Aw, how sweet.' They both looked at each other with pure innocents. Sora hugged me from behind and Riku did the same with Amanda as we watched this awesomely perfect couple in front of us. I saw a half smile appear on Nam's face, causing Cloud to smile. Cloud kissed her, before kissing her forehead and hugging her. She rested her head on his chest.

"Aw, how sweet!" I said out loud after repeating in my head a few more times. Namine and Cloud both smiled at me.

"What's sweet?" Josh asked walking up to the group.

"Namine and Cloud having a moment," I laughed. He laughed too.

"So Josh, do you like anyone?" Cloud asked.

"Yep," he answered plain and simple.

"Who?" I asked curiously.

"Can't tell you," Josh smirked.

"Aw, dude. I can tell you must really have it in for her,." Cloud laughed. Josh smiled wider.

"Well, are you going to tell her?" Sora asked.

"Can't."

"Why not?" Amanda said.

"She doesn't like me in that way."

"How do you know?" Riku decided to join in on this interesting conversation.

"I know."

"It's okay. I'm sure she'll come to her senses," I said patting his back.

"Thank Kai." I smiled at him. The bell rang. We all said our goodbyes like normal and went to class.

School finally let out for spring break. (A/N: yeah I know, spring break already?) We still never found out who Clouds secret admirer was and I never noticed how secretive Josh was about his personal life. I guess it's a good thing so rumors don't go around.

It was the mid afternoon. Sora, Namine, Amanda, Riku, Selphie, Wakka, Tidus, and Josh were helping me and Cloud put everything in the car. Cloud decided he would drive there, and I would drive back. Cloud kissed Namine goodbye and he got in the divers seat. I sat in the passengers seat and rolled down the window. Sora leaned in.

"Drive safe guys," he said leaning against the door. Sora looked at me. "I love you Kairi. See you soon."

"I love you too, Sora." We kissed.

"Ready?" Cloud asked. I nodded. He slowly pulled out of the driveway. When we got onto the street, all of our friends lined up waving at us. We waved back.

"I love you Cloud!" Namine said.

"I love you too," Cloud called out from the window. I unbuckled my seatbelt and leaned out the window on my side looking over the roof of the car.

"I LOVE YOU SORA!" I called out, blowing a kiss to him. He laughed doing the same.

"I LOVE YOU TOO KAIRI!" he called back. I smiled big before sitting back in the car. We all waved and drove down the street.

"How long is the drive anyways?" I asked as we started to drive through town.

"About five hours," Cloud replied.

"Ugh! That's a long time. I hate long car rides," I said impatiently. Cloud laughed.

"How did you manage to drive here when we moved?"

"I slept," I smiled. He laughed and rolled his eyes. I turned on the radio and we soon drove out of Destiny City. I kept looking at my ring on my hand. I still couldn't believe Sora gave me the ring. I looked out the window, and soon fell asleep.

"Kairi," I heard Cloud call in the distance. I slowly opened my eyes and sat up. I stretched and yawned. "We're here now." I looked around at a familiar sight. We had just entered Star City. Star City was a large city with tall buildings and tons of people and houses, compared to Destiny City, which was more of a casual town with smaller buildings, yet still as popular. "So where do you want to go?"

"Let's go to Frosty," I smiled. He nodded and started to drive off the main road. We started to drive in the part of town where Cloud and me had lived. We pulled into the parking lot for Frosty and got out. We walked into the ice cream parlor. Cloud and I both ordered coffee flavor and sat down at a booth.

"It's good to be back," Cloud said looking out the window. He had lived here his whole life and I knew he missed it just as much as I had missed Destiny City when I lived here.

"Yeah, it sure is," I smiled admiring the same view. The little bell on the door jingled noting that someone had just entered. I looked up to see who it was. Jenna, Kyle, Chris, and Casey, our friends had just entered. "Oh my gosh! Hey guys!" I said standing up getting their attention.

"Kairi! Cloud!" Jenna, a blonde with gray-green eyes, cried out hugging us.

"Holy moley. I thought you guys abandoned us for good," Chris, the calm, laid back blond of the group, said giving Cloud a high five.

"Nah, we had to come back," Cloud said, giving a high five to Kyle too and hugging Jenna and Casey.

"So how have you guys been?" Kyle, the hyper brunet, asked.

"Great. Cloud has a girlfriend and I have a boyfriend," I grinned figuring this was important information.

"Oh! Dude, who's the girl?" Kyle asked suspiciously.

"Her name is Namine," Cloud said with a smirk.

"Hey isn't that the Namine you were best friends with?" Casey, the smart brunette of the group, asked. I nodded. Everyone here knew about everyone back in Destiny City.

"Is she hott?" Chris asked.

"Totally," Cloud grinned. I rolled my eyes. "But there is more to her, she's perfect."

"Aw," I laughed. "Nice cover, Cloud."

"So Kairi, who's the guy?" Jenna asked. I smiled. "It's that Sora guy you were always talking about huh?" She smiled wider.

"Yep."

"Yay!" Jenna hugged me. Jenna actually reminded me of Namine and how we are together.

"Do you have a picture of him?" Casey said. I nodded pulling out my phone and showing a picture of Sora and me "Aw, what a cute couple."

"He's pretty hott," Jenna said looking at the picture. I laughed closing my phone.

"Yeah he is. But he's mine, stay away," I joked. She laughed.

"Hey, did you guys know that Josh moved to where we are?" Cloud asked.

"No, we didn't know he moved there, but we did know he moved," Chris said.

"Is his sister there too?" Casey asked. I nodded. "God, I hate her."

"Why?" I asked.

"Well, Josh had liked this one girl, Samantha. Sarah found out and made a complete mess out of it."

"How so?" Cloud said.

"Well, Sarah said that Josh stalked her everywhere she went, knows everything about her. Sarah had told that to Samantha's boyfriend who is on the football team. Josh never did any of that except that had only liked her, but Sarah lied to everyone. Josh ended up getting beat up by Samantha's boyfriend and a few of his friends. Poor Josh," Jenna said.

"So that's why he doesn't like her," I said looking at Cloud who nodded. "I feel bad for him now." I wanted to hug him and tell him that he never has to worry about something like that happening in Destiny City.

"He would be happy to hear that," Jenna said with a small grin tossing her blonde hair to the side. I looked at her funny wondering what that meant exactly.

"Well, we better get to our hotel. We'll call you tomorrow and we can hang out," Cloud said walking to the door of the parlor. "Good to see you guys." Cloud and I waved at everyone and got back in the car. We started to head towards our hotel. 'What did she mean by that?' I thought over and over in my head.

Soon we arrived to the hotel and we checked in. Cloud and I were sharing a room with two full sized beds. This hotel room was awesome. It had a pretty big TV, a small kitchen and a great view of the ocean. Cloud called up Namine to tell her we had arrived. I decided I would call Sora. I got my cell phone and went out on the balcony. The sun was almost completely set. I looked around the sky, looking for the moon before I decided to call Sora. Finally when I found it, I called him up.

"Hello?" I heard him say through the other side.

"Hey," I said sweetly.

"Hey Kai. I miss you."

"I miss you too. By the way, look at the moon," I stared at the moon as a said that.

"Okay I'm looking at it."

"Now we see the same thing," I heard a small laugh.

"Just make sure you look at that often okay?" Sora said.

"I will."

"Well, I'm sorry I have to cut this short, but we're going to have dinner with the family now. I love you Kairi."

"I love you too Sora. Text me when you can. Bye."

"I will. Bye." We hung up the phone. I smiled one last time at the moon before going inside.
