Just Live-

Chapter 3

OH. MY. GAWD!

Sora couldn't think. He couldn't react. He couldn't breath.

Despite the headache causing power of the scent of chlorine still filling the air and the rush of hot water over his head Sora found himself unable to even blink.

He's RIGHT there!

His mouth felt like sand paper as he flicked his tongue out to lick his full and very wet lips. It was the most he could push his body to do at the moment. Eyes wide despite the water pouring into his face.

What am I gonna do? Why did he...--- ACK! OHMIGOWD!

The feel of smooth, soft, wet flesh against his was almost too much and Sora felt his knees buckle. Riku was right behind him, absent mindedly running his hands through his hair and softly humming to himself as he lathered shampoo into it. Really expensive shampoo. The kind only your hairdresser would recommend.

It smelled nice and clean. Like... fresh water and plants with the slightest hint of some kind of flower.

Cringing, out of not having any kind of control over this situation, Sora moved forward a bit, just to give himself some distance in the small space of the shower. His hands felt stable against the blue tile wall but his legs still shook like an earthquake was happening below his feet. Hair hung in his eyes but he didn't move to brush it away. He knew it was the only thing hiding the immense blush covering his entire face.

I can't... believe this is happening!

Sora thought back to the pool. They had all been swimming. Playing childhood games like 'Marco Polo' and 'Ships Across the Ocean'. It had been a lot of fun. Riku was a marine powered juggernaut though. Not once had anyone, not even Wakka and Tidus, both highly skilled Blitzball players, managed to escape his pale clutches. Riku was like a dolphin.

Or rather... A Barracuda.

With his silver hair gleaming just under the surface of the cool fake blue water. His powerful arms stroking through the mass of liquid like a hot knife through frozen butter. Barely making bubbles or splashing. Riku was just a naturally talented swimmer. He was in his element.

He'd come up out of the water, lips full and shiny, mouth slightly open to suck in air, skin glistening as little rivulets of water played down his body. Silver locks would be plastered to his face, hiding his eyes. With a graceful motion Riku had swept back his hair. Those charcoal eyelashes were clumped together, a few droplets of water rolled off of them like tears, finishing the look of some other worldy water being.

Sora had found himself only able to stare.

He probably hadn't been the only one either. Riku just demanded attention like that. Even though when he'd noticed everyone staring at him he'd get slightly shy and raise an eyebrow. Expression curious.

Sora couldn't swim much because of this. Every time Riku put his hands on Sora, during the games, he felt his body just lock up and he'd practically sink. The touches were playful, and innocent, but Sora kept thinking too deeply into things. He was way too hopeful.

This is killing me...

The last round of games had really done it though. Sora had sat out because he'd swallowed far too much water when Tidus had jumped on his back, nearly drowning him.

Sora had been lost in his own mind, staring dazed down at the water as the it ran into his solid form. He could hear laughter behind him, he heard Tidus approaching, but he'd reacted too late. He was getting good at that, reacting late to things. He'd felt a cold chest and little hard nipples press into his back, he'd yelped out of surprise. He'd teetered forward, mouth still wide open, and dunked under the water. He sucked in, he was sure, most of what his lungs could take in water. He heard yelling for a moment but couldn't make out the voice. Only the fact that he felt dizzy and heavy registered in his mind.

Riku had snatched the blonde off of Sora roughly and had practically tossed him to the other side of the pool. Tidus fell in with a startled gasp. Right between Kairi and Selphie who'd been tossing a beach ball back and fourth. Tired of playing the girls then proceeded to hoist Tidus up and hold him for his beating that was soon to come.

Kairi, the stronger of the two, grinned evilly and swept Tidus's feet out from under him under the water. The blonde yelped and fell in backwards, only his arms staying above the surface. Kairi used her foot to hold Tidus under the water for a moment. Selphie giggled gleefully all the while. Tidus squirmed, and kicked, and fought, actually managing to snag the front of Kairi's lavender bikini bra. The girl screamed as the little top was stretched, her breasts squishing together and nearly being exposed. For a moment she released her hold on Tidus, allowing the boy to come up for air.

"YOU SICK TWISTED... SEXUAL HARASSMENT! RAPE! She squealed playfully. Tidus came up coughing and chocking and sucking in air but still managed to get a laugh in between his pained breathes.

"Your boobs saved me from being murdered woman!" Tidus gasped before Kairi jumped on him again, a grin that read "Revenge" spread wide across her face.

"Help! THIS CRAZY CHICK'S TRYING TO KILL--- :gurgle, drown, splash, splash, gasp:-- ME!"

Wakka was helping Riku pull Sora to the side of the pull. The brunette sputtered, coughed, and chocked all the way. Taking in a deep gulp of chlorine scented air Sora laid down and blessed the Gods above that he hadn't drowned. Riku and Wakka sat with him for a moment before Wakka left to go deal with Tidus.

Sora shivered, sure his body was trying to shake off its near death experience, and closed his eyes. He sucked in as much air as he could before he had to sit up quickly and practically puke up more pool water.

"Jesus... Sora are you-- T... take it easy." Riku had said softly, barely restraining a harsh frown, as he placed a cool hand on Sora's shoulder for comfort. The brunette was too preoccupied with trying to breathe normaly to let himself blush or get flustered this time.

"Fucking prick." Riku murmured vehemently. "He could've killed you. He thought that shit was funny too..."

Riku glared bullets in Tidus's direction. The blonde was futilely trying to fight off being dunked under the water over and over again by Wakka. Pleased giggles and squeals were coming from the girls.

"This is what you get!" Kairi chirped merrily. :dunk: "For trying to drown Sora!" Selphie added. Wakka pulled Tidus up by his hair and dragged him to the pool side.

"Karma, ya! Didn't like that too much I bet!" Wakka teased and hefted the blonde drowned rat onto the pools edge were he flopped over like a beached fish. His chest rising and falling fast. He started to laugh after a moment though.

Riku was hissing and spitting like a cat at this. Sora groaned, because he kept burping and it tasted like pool water, and because his chest hurt. Riku turned around quickly, blinking a few times to soften his expression.

"You okay?" he asked concerned. He leaned in and looked Sora over, noticing how pale his best friend was. Sora nodded a few times but wasn't really sure what he was saying yes to. His head was still buzzing.

"I think that's enough swimming for today." Riku said after a moment and he called to the others that they should head back to get dressed and get ready for dinner or something. They'd been swimming for almost two hours anyway. On empty stomachs.

Sora shivered and hugged himself. His hands felt extremely cold.

"Sora...? Christ you really were close to death just now!" Riku gasped and pulled the shivering boy into a warming hug. The sight of Sora struggling to breathe had made his heart ache in more ways then he'd like to admit.

"I...:cough: wasn't about to die..." Sora said, rolling his eyes, they stung, with a slight smile on his face. Although, he wasn't so sure about that himself. "Was just some water. I'm fine:hic:-- really."

Ya know... cause yea... I wasn't about to die. Aheheheheh.

Riku wouldn't let Sora go and his hands started to run up and down in smooth small circles over his back. The heat emanating from the other boy was very soothing. Sora felt himself grow warm.

"Just take your time." Riku pressed his face into Sora's wet hair and took a deep breath before he turned back to the others.

"Hey guys, you go on ahead. Sora still needs a little more time to get his bearings straight, okay."

The others looked at Riku, worried expressions on their faces. Well... all except Tidus. He looked only slightly disgusted. Sora felt slightly taken aback at that.

"Is he gonna be okay?" Selphie asked, her voice bubbling with concern. She started to take a step forward, her pastel yellow bikini sticking to her skin, little bows limp on the straps. She brushed a wet lock of hair out of her face and pursed her lips as Riku nodded and they went on ahead.

Leaving Sora and Riku alone.

It went silent in the pool area. Sora noticed this and felt his body tense.

Oh no...

Looking up finally, Sora saw Riku staring at him with a barely suppressed angry stare. The younger boy flinched, not sure if the mug was directed at him.

Is he... mad at me...?

"Don't ever do that again." Riku hissed after a moment. Sora was kind of shocked and found himself looking around the large room for some kind of explanation.

"What... what did... I...?" Sora started but he wasn't allowed to finish his question. Riku pulled him into a very tight, very warm, hug and just held onto him like he'd suddenly vanish. The feeling of warm skin on skin, so close, so intimate, not to mention Riku's nipples pressing into Sora's, made the brunette nearly melt away.

Riku I'm a slave for yooouuuu--- Oh yea, I'd nearly drown a million times to get this kind of attention again! :yelp:

"Come on." Riku sighed and hefted Sora up by picking him up from beneath his arms. Sora felt extremely light to Riku and the silver haired teen had to hold onto him for a moment, just to be sure he was still there.

Riku's fingers played across Sora's back, then down his spine, then up to his sides.

"You're so... tiny." Riku concluded after a moment. The corners of his petal pink lips were turned up slightly in a small smile.

"I can carry you around." The older boy added, like an after thought. There was a gleam in his eye and Sora jumped away, holding out his hands.

"Ahheheh, that's okay. I can... walk on my own... Really, I'm o... :hic:... kay."

Sora covered his mouth and blushed.

Riku smirked. "Alright then. Let's get going before the others think we're... making out or something."

Sora's mouth fell open and Riku burst into a fit of giggles, shaking his head. Flecks of water flew every which way and also caught Sora in his left eye. He rubbed at it, mouth still open, as he started to head towards the exit, Riku leading the way.

And that's how Sora was in this pleasurable yet extremely... well not uncomfortable, but unexpected, situation right now.

What should I do... I mean... There's a reason he walked in here right? :cannot compute rational reason:

Oh yeah, to take a shower! DUH!

Sora thumped his head against the wall and closed his eyes. He felt a bit guilty for thinking such a way. But then something dawned on him.

But... he could have seriously just waited for me to get out. I mean... I wasn't going to be that long and what guy gets in the shower with another guy just because?

Sora 'meeped' to himself out of frustration. He was just about to decide to get out of the tub, so he wouldn't mentally torture himself anymore, when the water got really hot suddenly. Sora straightened, wincing, and whipped around to stare at Riku, who was near the Faucet.

"OWW! Why did you... :choke"

Oh... dear...

Riku was standing there, staring at Sora, eyes smoldering, lips pouting and full, hair sticking to his face. He cocked his head to the left and smiled.

"I'll wash your back." He said softly, very casually, like he did this all the time."

Sora was sure his chin hit the floor. He was sure Riku saw his chin hit the floor. Strangely enough he managed to play off his shock in physical form. His heartbeat was pulsating so fast he was certain it could be seen clicking against his ribcage through his skin.

Oh man... what's wrong with me. Is this really... love?

Mere seconds had passed but Sora felt like it took 10 years for his voice to work.

"S... sure... I'll wash yours then." Sora was shaking internally.

WHAT have I done:cries: What should I do!

"Turn around." Came a soft whisper in his ear. Sora felt his lips bubble and almost mechanically he started to turn around. Riku sighed silently behind him. That wasn't so hard. Now, just play it cool, like nothing weird is going on and this might just work.

Sora closed his eyes tight and placed a hand against the warm tile wall to brace himself. He felt... exposed. Vulnerable. And not because he was naked.

Sora stared up at the ceiling without looking up. Waiting. He could feel Riku's eyes on him, on his back. He could FEEL how intense they were. His skin seemed to heat up and a blush rose across his face in a wave of emotional heat. Sora swallowed hard and felt a glob of saliva in his throat.

Oh God... What's he doing...? Go to it already... I'm dying here...!

Riku reached out with his hand, fingers relaxed, barely touching, just tracing. He traced the lines of Sora's back in slow curvy movements. He'd seen this back many times, but never like this. Looking at Sora as 'more' than a friend made Sora look... different.

"God. You are so beautiful." Riku breathed out loud before he could stop himself. Sora shifted but didn't say anything. Riku pursed his lips and frowned.

I said... I'd let Sora admit his feelings first... But I can't take this anymore. Knowing Sora he probably thinks I'd push him away. I have to let him know his feelings are returned ten... NO! 100 fold!

Riku chewed his bottom lip. What's the worse that could really happen if I was... wrong all this time? Sora would still be my friend at least. He told me so himself.

Riku flexed his fingers, the ones frozen over Sora's skin. He glared at the back of his own hand. Fuck it! Just go for it!

Just as he was about to pull Sora to his chest in an embrace he hoped channeled all of his long sealed away desires and thoughts, Sora whipped around, pulled Riku into a hug, hot arms wrapping around Rikus slender waist, looked up, and kissed Riku with all the passion his 18 year old existence could muster.

Riku had to grip the wall to keep from wobbling. His legs... his being felt weak for a moment and he could only stare down in pure surprised, totally thrilled, but surprised none the less, shock.

Well damn!

Sora's lips were soft. Softer than any fruit Riku had ever pressed his lips into to taste. Just as sweet too.

They tasted pure.

Riku knew, this kiss had been his long before Sora had even been born. Without hesitation Riku placed a hand on Sora's sharp hip and his other in those silky cinnamon tresses and put his all right back into their first kiss.

I did it! Sora was practically doing back flips in his mind. His tummy felt fluttery and his legs a bit weak, but Riku was holding him up, just like back at the pool. He felt himself smile into the kiss and tightened his grip on Riku's waist. Riku smiled back. This caused Sora to giggle.

Yay!

Riku only pulled back slightly to lick tenderly at Sora's lips. He hadn't closed his eyes once and watched Sora lap gently back at his tongue like a kitten did to milk. Not only that, Sora was practically purring, his fingers kneading Riku's skin gently.

THAT is too hot! "God you are so sexy" Riku breathed, pulling Sora into a lewd embrace. Gripping a firm behind in his hands quite easily. Sora mewled, lust creeping into his throat. Every part of his body touching a part of Riku's.

Every part.

Riku pushed his tongue all the way into Sora's eagerly waiting mouth. He explored with abandon, letting his tongue slick over the roof of Sora's mouth, to each side of his jaws, and even over his teeth.

Hmm, strawberry Riku noted absently. Sora suddenly did something Riku wasn't expecting and Riku couldn't hide a startled expression this time.

"Riku! I want you. NOW! Please, make love to me. I can't wait anymore. I want you so bad!" Sora's hands where suddenly everywhere. In Riku's hair, rubbing over his neck, down his back, across his chest and nipples, down his abdomen, then they were expertly running over his very obvious erection. Sora licked his lips and looked so horribly fuck-able at that moment that Riku almost grabbed him and had his way. Something clicked in his mind however.

NO! This isn't how this is supposed to be!

"WHOA!... OMGIGOD like, whoa!" Riku swallowed hard, lowered his head to hide his blush ,and held out his hands to hold Sora at bay. Sora looked ready to pounce again. Too much like a naughty kitten.

"Wait... :shudder: wait..." Riku turned felt around blindly with his left hand to turn off the shower, his right hand still held out in defense. When the faucet squeaked off he whipped back around to Sora and took a long deep breathe.

"That... :shudders harder: That was amazing."

"It can be better." Sora added giggling and started to come forward again. Riku gaped at this sudden change in his friend and grabbed Sora by his shoulders.

"You... are a total sex demon aren't you. WHERE did my timid little blushing Sora go?" Riku chided and tried to calm his screwed up nerves. Oh how he was failing. He felt his arousal calm slightly though. As hot as Sora was right now, he did NOT want to rush this.

"I... thought you'd like me like this." Sora looked confused. His mouth angled down in a frown and his eyes shining brightly.

"I mean I'm ALWAYS all timid and super shy. Don't... you want me...?" Sora looked up at Riku at that moment and his face was marred by an expression that read so much hurt that it made Riku's throat tighten.

"YES! God yes I want you. You have NO Idea how badly I want you right now. But... I mean, come on! Like this? Now? Sora... This isn't... us... This isn't how we do things."

Sora still looked confused but at his pained expression was only slightly upset now.

"I've been waiting for so long..." Sora whispered to himself and pulled away from Riku. "I hope... Oh no... I ruined everything didn't I?" Sora started to pull at the shower curtain and make a quick escape but Riku snatched him back into a tight hug.

"Nooo...! Sora, I've been waiting for this too! You didn't ruin anything. I'm so glad you told... er showed me how you feel."

Sora went limp in Riku's arms and let his head lull back on Riku's shoulder. "I love you." He said easily, certainly, surely. Riku could only blink. Well damn again...

"I've always loved you." Sora rubbed a hand across Riku's arm and kissed the firm skin there. "I've wanted to tell you that for a long time." He smiled happily to himself.

That was so easy to say. It's easy to say things you feel with all your heart I guess.

Riku grinned. "SO you finally admit it!" He chirped and snuggled into Sora's neck. He couldn't resist kissing at the clean soapy scented skin there. Sora giggled, a sound Riku was more than used to, but it seemed different this time.

I can make him giggle like that! Just me. Ohmigod this rocks so hard. Riku kissed Sora's neck again and Sora wiggled.

"Mmm, Riii-kuuu. That tickles! Stooop... :whimper: ... NO FAIR. I didn't mean stop for rea- HEY! Riku?" Sora blinked a few times.

Riku had pulled back and was studying Sora slightly. "Hmm..." He breathed and turned to get out of the shower. Sora balked and scrambled out behind him. "What?" He said, his voice almost pleading. Riku flashed him a grin and threw him a big soft drying towel.

"I love you to by the way."

Sora brightened. "I know:blush: Can... can I dry off with you?" He asked timidly, all signs of 'Super Horny Sora' gone now. He scratched at his wet hair absently, causing it to stick up at crazy angles even while wet.

That's my kitten. Riku thought pleased and opened his towel for Sora. The smaller boy came over easily and Riku wrapped his, their, towel around Sora's shoulders as well as his own.

"So." Riku started, and leaned in to kiss Sora's nose tenderly. Sora poked out his lips, asking for a kiss there instead. Riku obliged with many kisses and soft pats and rubs of the towel.

"Now that we've admitted our undying love to each other. What are we? I can't be your friend anymore." Riku rubbed the towel vigorously over Sora's hair. Sora snickered at so much attention.

"Well, I guess this makes us... :BLUSH: I guess... your my b... b... boyfriend now."

I SO hadn't thought about any of this. Yarg! How weird. Omigod! I LIKE that. Riku's gonna be MY boyfriend.

Riku laughed good naturedly at Sora's overly flustered reaction to such a simple question.

"Well, I guess I can be your 'b... b... boyfriend'. 'Sides, I like how that sounds. I'm Sora's boyfriend." Riku clicked his tongue and let the words play on it a bit. "Sora is my boyfriend."

Riku grinned, his tongue sticking through his teeth. "Yea. I'm already used to that. I was practically your boyfriend before now anyway. At least... in Sei's mind. Heheheheheh!"

Sora snickered, agreeing whole heartedly. He went quiet though and looked up at Riku, studying him. Riku gave him a curious look, eyes sparkling.

"I still want you, ya know." Sora added in a matter of fact tone and smirked.

"Likewise." Riku breathed quickly, his pulse fluttering nicely.. Sora poked out his lips, grinned, sighed in a dreamy manner, smirked, then snuggled into Riku's chest.

"What was that about?" Riku asked while wrapping an arm around Sora's waist. He was lost but intrigued and very sure he should be slightly worried. A good worried.

I think he just mentally molested me.

Nothing but good things can come of this. Sora closed his eyes and breathed in Riku's scent. A scent he was more than familiar with but that was now different.

This is love.

I finally said it. And everything worked out! What was I so worried about anyway? I can be so weird sometimes. YAY! Riku is finally mine

Sora lovingly ran his fingers over the area where Riku's heart would be and felt the steady beat of it thumping from within. He focused for a moment and felt his own heartbeat soon match it's rhythmic pace.

This is love

Our love.

This is good.

Sora and Riku held each other for a very long time. More than happy to just be with each other like this. They would let things go slowly and come along naturally. They both wanted this and it would work out. Nothing and no one could ruin their happiness.

No one.

They'd been in the bathroom for a while and hadn't really thought about the others waiting in the next room across the hall. Riku hadn't locked the door. Selphie, Wakka, Kairi, and Tidus were getting kind of anxious waiting around to eat but no one wanted to interrupt the two best friends. They were talking, they remembered. Finally an hour had passed.

"I'll get them."

"Knock first!" Kairi had called out after the boy. He padded softly on bear feet across the hall and noticed the door was cracked open. Shrugging, he went in. Riku and Sora weren't in the main room.

"..."

There was a slight clenching feeling in his belly as he creeped towards the bathroom door. He had a feeling he'd see something he didn't want to see. Something private. This angered him on many levels. He was quiet and realized he was holding his breath. The bathroom door was barely closed and he could see into it from several feet in the bedroom.

His mouth fell open.

There was Riku and Sora holding each other, very OBVIOUSLY naked under one towel. Several thoughts and betrayed feelings raced through him but only one ideas seemed to stand out clearly.

Traitor. He clenched his eyes shut and balled his fist.

Traitor!

Tidus pursed his lips, clenched his jaw, turned and left the room, slightly pushed the door closed, before putting on the biggest grin he could force.

"YO! What the fuck ya'll! We're STARVING! Hurry the hell up!" He bellowed.

Tidus heard a gasp and some shuffling in the bathroom and he barely fought the vicious glare he wanted to express. His mouth twitched and he bared his teeth despite himself but as soon as Riku poked his head out of the bathroom door the grin was back in full fake glory.

"Ha! Sorry bout that. Got... caught up primping. Ya know it takes time to look this good." Riku grinned, looking totally nonchalant.

Tidus made a strange expression but Riku didn't see it. "Yea, whatever. Come on! Just throw on something and move your ass." Tidus started to turn and leave the room but something inside him clicked and he bitterly asked. "Where's Sora? He alright after I owned his ass in the pool?"

Riku came out of the bathroom, a pair of black and white trimmed sweat pants covering his lower half now. His chest was still slightly wet. Tidus grimaced at the slight nudity.

"He's fine. Changing. He'll be right out." There was ice in Riku's voice. Fucker really thought what he did back there was funny.

"I see. I guess you took good care of him then." Tidus turned around, a smirk on his face.

"Next time it'll be YOU I own. Watch your back man, WATCH your back!" Tidus laughed deeply, hands on his hips. Bastard. Fucking bastard. Liar!

Riku frowned. He... something's off about him... "Anyway, we'll be out in a sec."

"I'm sure Sora can find the room, RIGHT across the hall, on his own. What are you, his boyfriend? Why do you wait for him and shit all the time?" Tidus's joking attitude was gone. Replaced with something close to a seething deep disgust.

Riku glared despite himself. "You act like this is new. Chill the fuck out with your attitude. What's with you lately? If I didn't know any better I'd say you were jealous of our relationship. Sora and I, I mean."

Tidus scowled. "What-ever-the-hell! I don't feel like getting into this with you again... Do--"

"--Then shut the fuck up about WHAT I do with my best friend." Riku crossed his arms and yes, looked very intimidating standing there like that. Tidus knew, with no doubt, he was no match for Riku. Be it verbally OR physically.

"Whatever." Tidus whispered, his energy drained. He felt suddenly sad.

"Yea whatever." Riku added and turned back to his towel to fold it up and toss it on the bed again. Sora peeked out of the bathroom a moment later.

"Hey, Tidus." He said smiling, pulling on a baggy red t-shirt. Tidus looked away from him. Sora didn't know how to take that.

He and Riku were arguing again... about me. Oh no... What should I do...?

The room was silent for a moment.

"Shall we eat then." Sora chirped eventually. He felt like he was suffocating in the now stale air. I hate when they fight... Especially about me. They... were friends before I even knew them.

Riku looked over at him and smiled slightly. Sora's like an air purifier. I feel better now just because he walked into the room. God Tidus pisses me off. Riku sent a mad stare at the blonde, who's head was hung in something akin to shame.

"Yea, lets go get some grub." Riku said and waggled his fingers for Sora to come along. Tidus practically fled the room and disappeared into the hall. Sora hesitated.

"Ignore him." Riku said sternly and took Sora's hand. Sora almost pulled away.

"Let's..." Sora started, looking afraid or Riku's reaction.

"I know. Keep in secret for now. We'll tell them later." Riku finished for him, looking none to bothered by the idea of keeping their new found love hidden.

"All that matters is we know. Right?" Riku added and grinned at Sora. Sora nodded enthusiastically and followed Riku out of their room. Riku closed the door behind him, along with any knowledge of their relationship. As they entered the room where the others sat around waiting for them, they were 'friends' again.

Tidus watched him come in for a brief moment before turning back to the TV. He didn't feel like even looking at them right now.

Traitor.

"So what should we eat? Pizza, chicken, fish? I'll call room service." Riku piped in and the next half was spent debating on what to eat for dinner.


To be continued- Review please.

Author's Notes-

Yea, only took me 20 years but I cranked out a new chapter. Writing doesn't come easily to me. I'm an artist. LOL. I usually write when I get too overwhelmed with drawing or feel kinda art blocky. That's not the case this time. I just really felt like writing. I'm sorry this is updated on a whim. I wish I could keep a better schedule but well, the life of a comic artist is a BUSY one! But yes, chapter 3. Does Tidus feel "homophobic"? I have an idea of what I want to do with him but I'm going to try to really build up to it. It's a big part of the story. I know Kairi, Wakka, and Selphie feel like 'extras' which they are so far, but they get important roles too :D. What else, yea, Riku x Sora. Shower scene, ohhh. It's hard keeping things 'Innocent' with them. Sora is a bit different in here than most 'Sora's' I've seen written. You'll see.

Hope you all liked it.
