Eh, okay, I know I said this was going to be a one-shot thingy. But well, it's not. HA!

Chapter Two: A Really Weird, Cold Day

Sora was COLD.

This was an odd thing, to be sure, because he lived on a tropical island.

But it was snowing, and there was nothing he could do about the cold because island homes do not have heating systems. So he put on the set of mittens his Aunt Ruth had given him (one on each hand and one on the nose) and went downstairs to bug his mother.

Sora's motherwas freezing. The reason she had moved from Canada to Destiny Islands was because she DESPISED cold and never wanted to see snow again. Unless it was in a snowcone or a snowglobe or something like that. But anyways, now it was snowing HERE, so it must be the Apocalypse or something.

Then her son walked down the stairs with a mitten on his nose and she knew that everything was normal. Because only Sora would or could wear a mitten on his nose.

"Sora, how are you doing that?"

"Eh?" Sora stared at his mother, wrapped up in all of the blankets they owned. "You mean my mitten?"

"Yes…"

"Um…I'm not really sure." Sora wiggled his nose to see if the mitten would fall off. It didn't.

"Oh, nevermind. Come here and snuggle with your mother. I'm freezing."

"WHAT?" Sora flinched away in disgust. "EW, Mom. No."

Shepouted. "What, my own son wouldn't give his body heat to keep his mother alive?"

Sora wrinkled his nose, and the mitten fell off this time. "You're not dying, Mom." He picked up the mitten and placed it back on his nose.

His momsighed. "Oh well. Just go play with your little friends then and leave me alone to freeze."

Sora felt pangs of guilt.

Sheburied herself deeper in her blankets. "You know, I bet Riku would snuggle with me."

The guilt was gone.

"EEEEEEWWW! MOM, THAT'S DISGUSTING!" Sora shrieked, running out of the front door straight into Riku and Kairi.

"Hey, nice job Sora!" Riku said. "You banged the door open. I couldn't get it..it was frozen shut."

"Sora…" Kairi started. "Why do you have a mitten on your nose?"

"I'm cold!" Sora yelled. "Do you not see the snow coming down?"

"Of course I do!" Kairi huffed. "Why do you think we're dressed so warmly?"

"Oh, yeah I forgot to ask. Kairi, why DO you have warm clothes?" Riku questioned.

"I used to live in Hollow Bastion, remember? It always snows there."

Riku narrowed his eyes. "But you were five then. How do your clothes still fit?"

Kairi ignored this and chose to thwack him instead.

"OW! Hey Kairi, I was just curious! I didn't mean anything by it! You look good even when you're not wearing a swimsuit! OW!"

It was at times like these when Sora wished he still had his megaphone. But his mom had 'accidentally' dropped it in the ocean off of a cliff after five mornings of being woken up with it in her ear.

"HEY!"Sora's momshrieked. "CLOSE THE DOOR! I'M FREEZING IN HERE!"

Sora coughed nervously and went to close the door. "Bye Mom."

Shestuck her tongue out at him.

Once the door was safely closed, Riku decided to bring something up.

"Sora, you and your mom seem a little on edge today. Did you two have a fight?"

Sora flushed.

Kairi poked him. "Sora, why are you all pink?"

"I'm NOT!" Sora squealed in a high-pitched voice.

Riku decided to pointedly ignore this discussion. He had a strange, uncomfortable feeling that it had something to do with him.

The three friends were walking up the hill to the cliff that overlooked the beach when Riku's dad skipped by.

Riku would have made a face like this -- O.O -- if that were possible.

"Wow, your dad really likes his construction job, doesn't he Riku?" Kairi commented.

Riku buried his face in his hands. "No, it's the snow. He was so giddy this morning!"

"Ugh. My mom was the exact opposite. She hates the cold! She wanted me to snuggle with her!"

Kairi raised an eyebrow. "And that's what you're so upset about?"

Sora huffed. "Not exactly."

"Then what? Tell me!" Kairi jumped up and down, managing to get snow in everyone's shoes.

"Well.." Sora said in a low voice. "It was more like a comment she made. When she was upset that I wouldn't snuggle with her, she said, 'I bet Riku would snuggle with me.'"

Kairi would have made a face like this --O.O-- if that were possible.

Riku did make a face like this -- O.o --.

"Oh—the horror!" Kairi shivered.

Riku fainted.

Meanwhile, Tidus was trying to build a snow castle on the beach. However, since snow doesn't stick to sand, he was having quite a time of it carrying snow to the beach fast enough to make a castle before it melted.

Selphie watched him in fascination that someone could be that stupid.

Wakka sighed. "Tidus, give it up, ya?"
