Begin Chapter Ichi

-If I keep watching

Behind this wall of glass

If I keep falling

Patience is departing fast

I. Don't. Want. To. Break.

I. Don't. Want. To. Fall.

So if my pieces shatter

It's all

Because of you

The expressions that you make

Are chains around my neck

And when I see you smile

That's the point where I'm a wreck

The point here I fall in

Is the point where you drown

And I don't want to break

Because of the expressions that you make-

3:30 P.M. Leonhart's Academy of Ballet and Dance, the entrance hall.

Kairi had always been skinny as hell. It wasn't because she was bulimic or anything contrary to popular belief, she just didn't eat much and excercised her ass off.

But for the most part no one really noticed she was skinnier than the average girl or that she even existed for that matter. In fact, Kairi had grown up to 16 with only one single friend, her best friend Sora Harada.

If the children or the teachers are her old school had just looked harder at the pale girl they would have noticed how fit she was for dancing, how different she was from other adolescents.

But no one did and that sent her seething with rage for the average kid and trying hard to appear invisible so she wouldn't have to voice her eccentric opinions. She followed the rules with an almost nonchalant demeanor and kept out of peoples' ways on purpose.

Sometimes this resulted in Sora dubbing her "schizophrenic" but that was her. Kairi knew she was different from the beginning and so decided to go away to a dancing school with rather strict staff. Of course the teacher's never noticed her so they would've put her in a good position but if they had, they'd have seen her amazing potential.

Kairi, if possible, was the best dancer at her school, this much no one knew but her. Albeit she never tried to make anyone see that or how perfect her figure was for ballet. The red-head somehow managed to keep all this information locked up for only the most intelligent to see and once in a while someone would.

Like Yuffie or Riku, perhaps only Yuffie's part comes later on so let's start with Riku Masaki. He was gorgeous in his own way, alright the silver-haired young man was beyond beautiful and flawless in appearances sending females tumbling or collapsing in his presence.

Everyone made sure to say hello or goodbye to Riku at the dancer's academy, male or female, for love interest or friendship. Everyone but Kairi that is.

The young Masaki took note of this and began to watch the young woman a little more and oh did he see her potential. He noticed the beautiful, elegant grace any other person would have if they watched more closely.

Mind you, Riku didn;t hold great interest for girls in a romantic way and Kairi for anyone of any kind. Although she had been intimidated by a lesbian couple once so she figured she liked women if anything.

So one day after practice Riku decided he would talk to the talented, unseen girl for he was curious in a completely platonic way. (All you KairixRiku fangirls/boys get the hell out of here! This is RikuxSora territory, thank you.)

As he strolled over to where the other was packing her stuff he was surprised at how tiny she was. Even though she was tall enough to be a ballerina she was small framed and not quite taller than the average person.

The silver-haired boy cleared his throat noisily, causing the red-head to look up. Kairi had cut her hair as close to a boy's cut at her mother would let a few years back and had kept the unruly style since.

"Yes?" She asked in low, collected voice.

"Sorry to bother you, Kairi is it?" A nod. "But I couldn't help but notice how talented you are in ballet, is there any reason why no one else seems to notice?" The younger girl gave him a sudden smile.

"So you've figured out my secret, eh?" She put a finger to her lips. "Don't count on telling anyone, their the ones who are stupid enough not to see." He laughed and nodded.

'This girl's pretty confident about her dancing skills.' "Want to go out for ice cream?" The words had come out before he could put them to a halt. The girl before him blinked in surprise.

"Sorry but I'm more prone to the other sex." She said blatantly.

"And I really must practice for the show tomorrow." Kairi swung her bag over her shoulder with ease and turned to leave but Riku stopped her.

"Look...I don't swing straight either and I wasn't really asking you out. You're just very intimidating, you leave an impression so I thought you might like to be friends..." A silver eyebrow went up, expecting an answer.

The Masaki charm always worked. "Oh! In that case, sure. I can postpone practicing for later. But you have to pay, Sora stole all of my money.." Riku smiled a bit. "Sora?" He asked with a quirk of his lips.

She gave an exasperated sigh.

"Yeah, my best friend since preschool who drives me absolutely mad." The boy laughed in return as they walked down the path to his favorite ice cream place. "So do you have any interest in this Sora girl?"

(I know! I know! Silly Riku!)

With the look he received Riku put his hands out in front of him. "Sorry! Sorry! You were just so open about your sexuality, you know I though that..." Kairi started to guffaw suddenly. Something Riku hadn't seen her do before.

For most boys it would have been a pretty sight. "No, no it's just Sora-" Giggle. "-Is a boy!" She said finally. "A male boy?" Was Riku's surprised reply, green eyes blinking softly.

"Mmmmm.." The silver boy's face lit up, eyes getting a strange gleam. "How nice. And what a girly name he has." Kairi couldn't help but laugh a little again at this statement. It was so true.

"And I constantly tease him about it." They entered the ice cream parlor satisfied with one another as friends. And they really were from then on, the dancing duo. Wealthy, gorgeous, famous Riku and the unseen yet talented Kairi.

As they sat down to eat Riku gave into a wicked smile.

"So when do I get to meet this Sora?"

4:00 P.M. The Harada Residence, Sora's bedroom.

Sora Harada could be extremely lazy if he wanted to be. And since that bright Friday school had ended early, the brunet was sleeping soundly in his bedroom.

Funny, how large the bed looked around him even though it was only a full bed and he had peeked 16 already. Sky blue covers were thrown carelessly over Sora's tiny, tanned body.

His room was painted blue as his eyes, with a book shelf towering in one corner, a bed, a dresser, a keyboard and a sketching desk were positioned about his room.

Clothes scattered carelessly here and there, on top of things and under things. He was adorable beyond reason to say the least, not causing many people to act seriously around him.

Girls thought him cute but never really thought he was "hot" or "sexy".

Not that the feminine majority mattered.

But the males he knew simply forgot he was there for the most part or looked at him as a younger brother. So if someone were to ask Sora Harada about his love life he would simply tell them he was free.

The short boy had never really grown close to anyone but his mother, Kairi and maybe his cousin Cloud but they were all great exceptions as one was his mother, the other his best friend and last something of a role model.

A smile clouded over Sora's face as he sunk deeper into his little dream. Dream---People had finally noticed his artistic ability and decided to take him seriously.

The people of Destiny Isles made him king and let him pick from all the princes of the world.---End Dream. "Ring! Ring!" The cinnamon haired boy groaned and rolled off his bed, landing on the floor in a heap. "Ring! Ring!" A tanned hand clasped over his spongebob decorated phone.

"H'Lo?" He asked with a yawn. "Don't 'H'Lo' me, Sora Harada!" As soon as the stiff voice reached his ears, the blue eyes boy sat up straighter. Ugh, it was Kairi.

"Well, why not?" Sora questioned in an irritated voice. "You were supposed to pick me up from school today!" And the brunet remembered, 'Oh yeah, I have a car with which I promised to pick Kairi up with every wednesday and Friday.

"But your stupid school's all the way in Traverse Town, Kai!" He protested with lowering eyelids. "Stop complaining, you promised me! But anyway I'm out having ice cream with Riku, here so I can sort of thank you as the ice cream's free."

"Uh huh.." Wait-Kairi was having ice cream with a guy! A guy who wasn;t him. How odd. 'But you like females, well..at least..I thought.." The tiny boy had confused himself even more to the point that he managed to trip down the stairs and into his kitchen with the cordless phone.

He waved to his mom with a yawn who was bent over the table reading her horoscope. "No! Riku's my friend." Oh, that explained it ignoring the fact that Kairi never made friends. Sora shrugged to himself.

"So come pick us both up!" Sora nodded even if Kairi couldn't see and hung up. "Gotta go get Kai, mom." He received a ruffling of his hair.

Time to get going.

4:20 P.M. Outside of the ice cream parlor we saw Kairi and Riku go into earlier.

The small red car slid down the road and over to the front of 'Leonhart's Dancing Academy'. Then over the way to blue ice cream parlor called 'Peaches.' Which really didn't make sense.

It was comfortable looking though a tad old fashioned. Sora put his foot to the brake and whined as he scrambled out of his car. He was wearing a soft, green sweatshirt that was almost larger than he, himself with baggy blue shorts, high, ruffled socks and fat sneakers.

Of course the large clothes only made him look smaller and cuter than he already was. His light feet padded the concrete as he rushed over to 'Peaches'' door, it swung open revealing a giggling Kairi next to what Sora would like to call the most gorgeous creature he had ever seen.

A sex god for all eyes to see was Riku Masaki through the young Harada's eyes. Icy, pale skin that ran smoothly over a perfect nose, azure eyes and beautiful lips. Lips that curved into a smirk after the eyes of the same person landed on Sora.

Something in Riku's mind screamed, 'Delicious! Delightful!' as he feast his eyes over the adorable boy standing int he doorway. "Oh hello Sora! This is Riku. Say hello."

Sora sighed, "'Lo Kai," He blushed a bit after wavering his glance back to the silver haired angel. "Ah.." Riku grabbed the younger boy's silk-skinned hand with his own soft one and held it with a sly smile.

"Hey Sora." He said letting go of the hand and turning to walk towards the red car. Sora sent Kairi a distressful look.

'Oh his voice.'

4:55 P.M. On the road to yet another destination in Sora's red car

After the brunet had dropped Kairi off at her house, Riku had chose to sit next to him in the front seats. "So..Um you live on Destiny Isles, then?" Sora asked trying to make conversation.

The angel blinked. "Mmmm.." He replied pressing his lips together. "Oh." The younger boy's cheeks were stained pink, this Riku took note of. He seemed to be a fairly smart boy for his age but Riku didn't know much about him.

It was strange, that the silver-haired boy had never been really attracted to anyone before and suddenly he wanted this boy. Badly. Very badly. That wasn't exactly a good thing. Lord no. Odd really. "Your face is pink."

He teased before he could stop himself. This was normally how he acted around people, except his heart wasn't beating unusually out of pace when he bormally teased. "Ah..um.." Sora's face now turned bright red.

"Aw, now your a cherry." Young Masaki drawled his eyelids drooping with confidence. Not the shorter one had bubbled up rage. "Now it's redder than a tomato." Riku had to stop himself from poking the soft cheek.

That was it.

"What the hell if your problem? My face is red because I'm getting annoyed!" Sora yelled, staring at the road ahead. The older boy was taken aback. He blinked stupidly before laughing and twisting in his chair.

"Y-you're laughing at me? Sora huffed with an embarrassed glare. 'you are so immature!" He added. Riku laughed even harder at the adorable fluff ball that was Sora. "Me?" He said finally.

"Are you really allowed to drive this car? What are you 12?" Sora's cheeks puffed out. "For your information I am 16 years old!" Riku flashed a grin before shaking his head. "Hard to believe, you could be a midget."

Sora was like a puffer fish now. "That's it! Get out of my car!' He shooed Masaki with his hands, waving them at him angrily. "Get out-"

But the silver-haired prodigy cut him off by kissing him gently on the cheek with soft, warm lips.

"Bye shortie." Riku whispered into his ear before swinging the car door open and jogging down the block to what actually was his house.

Sora Harada was left in shock.

-If I keep smiling

Will you go away?

If I keep crying

Will you leave today?

'Cause at the same time I'm on my knees

Begging you not to leave me, please

I see you laugh

I want to try

The wall is to high

It just won't break
