Disclaimer: Nothing Kingdom Hearts related belongs to me.
Okay, so here is another chapter as promised. This one is a little on the shorter side, but the good news is that I have some longer ones coming up in the future.
The Fan Club
Riku was the first to get up in the morning. He walked over to see a sleeping Sora, his alarm still had one more minute before going off. Riku turned the alarm off, deciding he would wake Sora up himself. He couldn't stand that thing Sora called an alarm clock. He sat down on the edge of the bed, shaking Sora slightly. "Time to get up. Wouldn't want to miss out on those wonderful drawings of yours in art class."
Sora sat up. "You know, I think you are enjoying this too much. I'll find something you're not good at one day, you just wait." Riku chuckled. "You already have. I will never be as naive as you." Riku grabbed his shower bag and headed out of the room, before Sora could come up with a reply.

In art class the teacher told them to draw a picture of something they did over the summer break. Sora mumbled something about that being an unfair assignment. Riku leaned over to see Sora's paper. "Come on Sora, you have to at least try." "I don't know what to draw." Sora tried to look over at what Riku was drawing, but Riku covered his paper up. "You can see it once you finish yours." Sora gave up and started drawing the outline of the beach. He later drew in what looked like him and Riku fighting with wooden swords. If you scrunched your eyes, you could kind of see it.
Riku patted Sora on the back. "See, that wasn't so bad." The blonde girl from yesterday was busy drawing a picture of the countryside. Sora noticed it to. "Hey that's pretty good. Is that from around here?" Naminé looked up not knowing she had an audience. She had a sweet smile. "It's a place I went to over the summer. It's about two hours from here." Sora scratched the back of his head. "Well it looks like a nice place."
The teacher got up from her desk. "Everyone should make sure their names are on their papers. Everyone should PRINT their names." Sora halfway didn't want to put his name on his paper. Maybe there would be some extra credit in this class? He looked over at Riku's drawing, which looked a whole lot better than his. Riku turned it so Sora could get a better view. It was a drawing of them setting on the Paupu tree. "It's your favorite spot on the island, isn't it?"

Sora was forced to set away from Riku at lunch. There were no tables that had two extra seats. Riku rolled his eyes as he sat down at a table full of giggling girls. Sora recognized Pence who was setting with some other people he didn't know. "It's Pence right?" The boy smiled. "Yea. That was some game huh? I think you and Riku definitely had the best dare." He started laughing while everyone around him just sat with blank stares. Sora had forgotten about that incident until now. "He looked very convincing." Sora tried to concentrate on his food. "Well he has never turned a dare down before."
Pence looked over at Riku's table. "You two have gathered quite a bit of fan girls." Sora looked down at the table. "Yea, I guess so." "So?" Sora was about to say 'so what' when Pence spoke again. "Is there anyone in particular that you like?" At some part in the conversation, Riku walked up behind Sora. "How about it Sora? Is there a girl that you like?" "Well...I don't really know anyone all that well yet. So, I wouldn't really know." Sora heard a few girls giggle. Pence stood up, ignoring the Riku and Sora fan club that gathered around. "I'm sure you will find someone." "What about you?" Pence smiled. "Oh that's easy. Olette."

That night Sora got into bed with images of the past few days racing through his head. "Hey Riku. Is there anyone you like?" Riku turned over on his side so he could face Sora. "Maybe." "So who is it that you might like?" Riku smirked. "I guess you will just have to wait and see." That was a typical answer coming from Riku. He always loved to keep Sora guessing on these sorts of things.
"Those girls in the cafeteria. Do you think they really like us?" "Of course they do. What's not to like." "You don't think it's weird?" "You get used to it. Now get some sleep." "Hey Riku?" "Yes?" "You were right. It is nice being able to hang out with you. We never got to talk like this back on the island." Riku rolled over on his other side. "Go to sleep, Sora."

In the next chapter, Roxas suspects something, and Sora tries to get some answers from Riku.
