Disclaimer: I don't own Kingdom Hearts
Note: Made in Software Apps (smiles) How many stories HAVE I made in this class? This was made for Kingdom Hearts, 'cause I've recently played the game after beating it and leaving it for more than a year. I hope you enjoy it!

Pairing: I don't know. Probably yaoi. There aren't any hints at the pairing though. It may just be a one-shot… I have yet to decide…

Bleed Me Dry
By: Lost-Remembrance (Red Tail)

'Riku'. Another slash was added to the bleeding wrists.

Yet another added with his mind whispering a name, 'Kairi.'

The razor was held in shaking hands. Slowly, the young teen clenched his shaking fists. He tried to control the sudden bursts of emotion flooding rapidly through his veins like a drug. All he could do was close his eyes and picture their faces.

There was a slash on his wrist for every time that he had failed his two friends. He cared about them—more than anyone else. And he failed them. He was the Keyblade Master, yet he couldn't even protect his own friends.

A pounding on the door interrupted his thoughts. The razor was quickly hidden with expertise. This wasn't the first time that this had happened. Scars laced his wrists in a criss-cross manner. He was never so bold as to dare going to his inner forearm or to his elbows. God, he wanted to—but they would find out and keep him from the only thing that kept the stress away and saved his sanity.

His heart ached as he slid the blade cover over it and slipped it into his pocket. The ship rocked a bit. Currently, they were traveling in the Gummi ship, making their way to the next destination.

"Sora! We're almost there!" was said in between the pounding on the door.

He got up and looked at the mirror, slipping his mask back into place. He took some gauze and wrapped it around his wrists tightly and slipped his gloves, which went up past his wrists with gauntlets. Taking a deep breath, he controlled the shaking.

Goofy spoke this time, more concerned than Donald. "Gawsh Sora, are you okay?"

Sora opened the door, smile that was flawless on his face. "Yeah, I'm okay, Goofy." This time the smile was more sincere, "Thanks for worrying."

"No problem, Sora!" The dog happily replied, making his way in big awkward strides back to where the seats for the ship were.

The mask fell for a brief second—"Riku…" He clenched his fist, worrying over the silver-haired teen was almost natural for him now that he left Destiny Islands where there wasn't a care. "I'll save you and Kairi."

The promise couldn't be broken. After all, it was carved into his wrists.

OWARI?
