-HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY!-

-LovelessRitsuka


Sora plopped on the sofa, hearing the buzzing noise of water hitting tile as Riku took a shower in the hall bathroom.

After eating hotdogs and goofing around on the beach, they'd walked back to Riku's abode.

Of course, by then they were both sandy and sweaty. The elder boy, being a gentleman, allowed Sora to use his bedroom bathroom while Riku used the one in the hall.

The brunette had grabbed some spare clothes of his he usually kept around for instances like this, and took a shower in under five minutes.

The younger boy was now impatiently waiting for the silver haired boy to come out…and considering how hygienic Riku was, he probably wouldn't be out for awhile.

Sora loved Riku's house, it smelled like him. The brunette considered Riku's scent to be that of the ocean….and it just so happened he was a big fan of water.

The Hanazono home was very cozy, small and simple. It had a grandmother's touch to it, the china plates, grandfather clock, and wooden antique table simply made it more comfortable.

The walls were a pale butterscotch color, making the room feel happy and alive.

Sora liked that, it was better then his own home…a haunted house.

The Kasami family had bought a Victorian style home when they came to the island. It was already fully furnished; just a bit dusty is all.

Kids had often liked to go play by the huge home, daring each other to knock the bronze handle that resembled a lion or play on the creaky steps that seemed like they would fall off into oblivion if you weren't careful.

That's how Sora met Riku, a dare.

Strange huh?


A little blonde haired girl with innocent blue eyes and an angelic appearance was one of the boy's playmates before he met Sora.

Namine had dared her brave older friend to reach the handle of the 'haunted' house and knock on it.

Riku Hanazono, who was the bravest of them of them all at age eight, agreed.

The silver haired boy was known never to refuse a dare.

Never.

So putting as brave a front as an eight year old who was scared out of hit wits could, Riku bravely knocked on the door of the haunted house, watched by the wide eyes of an eight year old Tidus, and Wakka.

A seven year old Selphie held her breath in as Namine clung to her friend, Riku was too daring for his own good.

Then…the door opened.

The kids panicked immediately, thinking they'd called the undead as they hurried away, taking care not to stumble over each other.

But not Riku.

Riku stared in shock at the little boy in front of him.

The brunette was just about a head smaller than him, with spiky hair and wide blue eyes which gazed curiously at him.

The silver haired boy sweat dropped, he was NOT scared of this.

About to pick on the naïve brunette, he stopped as the kids looked up at him and smiled.

And that was how their friendship began with a smile.


The brunette considered listening to the shower UNTIL he began wondering what the boy could possibly be doing in there for so long?

Sora groaned, bad question.

He lifted himself off the sofa with ease and began walking to Riku's room.

When…the phone rang.

Sora halted as he heard the phone ring yet again. The shower stopped as the phone rang for the third time.

"Sora! Can you get that!" A voice shouted from the direction of the bathroom.

"Sure Ri-chan!" Sora yelled back, a slight smirk on his face as he heard the elder boy groan in annoyance.

He passed the bathroom, making sure to get a whiff of Riku's peach scented shampoo.

Godamit that was sexy!

Sora felt himself skipping over to the kitchen, feeling giddy inside as he reached the kitchen entrance.

The boy picked up the phone, "Hello, Hanazono residence, Sora speaking."

"Hiya there! Are you Riku-san's brother?" A high pitched overly cheery voice could be heard over the phone.

Sora opened his mouth to respond when he realized something; this girl didn't sound like any of his or Riku's friends…and why was SHE on a first name basis with his Ri-chan anyway!

Blue eyes narrowed as anger rose in his throat.

"Who might this be?" A cold voice replied to the girl on the other end, who flinched at the hatred in the person's voice.

"Uhhh…this is Kairi, Kairi Kusunagi. I'm Riku-san's pen pal, is he home?" The nervous female replied.

Sora glanced towards the shower door; the blow dryer was on considerably loud…

A little white lie wouldn't hurt.

"Sorry, he isn't home at this time. Good-bye." A click was heard as Sora placed the phone back on the receiver, a small smile on his face.


On the other end, Kairi was left mouth agape.

Wow, Riku's brother must be over protective, the red head thought as he placed her cell phone in her Gucci purse.

She hadn't even been able to tell Riku she was staying in Destiny Islands for spring break.

Oh well, she'd just call tomorrow.

With a frown on her face at being denied her silver haired friend, she walked down the street and in to her hotel, the most expensive in the entire island, Feria Azure.

This was gonna be a fun spring break.

Or at least, that's what a smiling red head though as she checked in under her parent's credit card.


"Sora, who was that?"

The startled brunette jumped as he turned to find Riku combing his long silver hair, which was no longer ridden with sand.

Riku gazed at him, and frowned.

Something was off.

His younger friend wasn't smiling his usual smile…but a different one instead. A small one, that made the ones he normally wore look forced and strange.

Sora snapped out of it and gave Riku his usual smile, "Huh? Oh! Wrong number." The brunette replied in a sweet voice laced with innocence.

The elder one raised an eyebrow at the younger one, when he saw the smiling brunette twitch.

Twitch?

Ok, something was wrong here.

So then, why did Riku simply shrug it off?

Replying with an "Ok," the silver haired boy led his younger friend to the couch.

Not missing the look in his eyes, a gleam of an emotion Riku thought Sora didn't know existed.

An emotion called…but Riku didn't finish that thought.

Sora had grabbed his attention once more as he turned on the T.V and pointed excitedly at a favorite music video of his began playing.

And that was the first of many to come…
