There I was again, sitting on my roof, wolfing down a chili cheese dog, watching the movie playing at the drive-in from a distance. As a fighting scene started, I began to notice a bright flashing of a light from somewhere across the street.

I finished the rest of my hot dog, then laid down on my stomach. I peered over the edge of my roof, looking across the street. There was Sora, clad in baggy pants, on his balcony. He was flashing a large flashlight that could serve as the sun if you simply shined it at the sky for an hour.

No need to say that this pissed me off.

"Can't you see I'm trying to watch something here!" I shouted, but not too loud. Sora didn't reply, but he just walked off of the balcony into what must have been his new room.

I nearly pissed my pants when I heard a loud crunch near me, and when I saw a head poke over the edge of my roof.

"And who the hell said you could come up here?" I whispered, glaring at the face of poor little innocent Sora. He shrugged, and plopped down next to me.

"Whatcha watching?" he asked, looking over at me. I simply continued glaring at him, waiting for some sort of explanation as to why he thought he could just climb my roof like it was his own.

"Fine. Guess you don't want me here." Sora stood up and began to hoist himself down from my roof.

I felt sort of bad for how I was treating him.

"It's Elektra. My favorite movie."

Sora smiled, and climbed back up on the roof. He sat down next to me, pulling a bag of Goldfish from one of his large pockets. He offered me some.

"Yeah. No thanks, I don't know where that's been."

"Suit yourself."

As the movie neared the ending, I started laughing hysterically. Sora's eyes tore themselves away from the screen, and gazed at me.

"Um-"

AHAHAHA.

"Sorry. I tend to laugh at when there's a sad part in the movie, so I don't look like a wuss and cry," I explained. "It does make a great distraction."

"'Kay. You're acting as strange as me, now."

I looked over at Sora. He was already watching the end of the movie, chin resting in his palm. I took that moment to admire his oh-so-good looks, before watching the movie myself.

I began to smile to myself, whether the scene was sad or not.

I don't know why.

-!-

After the movie had ended, Sora and I jumped off of my roof, and went inside my house. We went to the kitchen, picking up a few root beers.

"D-does this mean that we're friends?" Sora stuttered, hope shining within his blue eyes.

I nearly spit my root beer out. Luckily my parents weren't home, or else they would have freaked out from the amount of noise it took to keep that root beer within my mouth.

How could he think that after just watching a movie, sitting on the same roof as me and in the same kitchen as me that we're-

"Yeah." I said.

Yuffie Kisaragi gave in again.

What is it about this kid that makes me want to give in all the time?

Sora smiled, the first real, non-annoying smile I had ever seen from him.

I noticed, it kind of made him even more attractive when he smiled like that.

As we headed out of my house, I smiled.

Sora and I walked down the sidewalk, only to the corner or Gains and Harrison street. Then we walked back to our houses.

And then back to the corner.

And then back to our houses.

You get the picture.

After about an hour of pacing back and forth, Sora and I stopped in front of our homes.

"Well, uh. Guess this is goodnight."

"Yeah," I said. "See you at school tomorrow."

I never knew that those words could make me feel so good.

-!-

Well, I never did see him at school Monday.

Or the day after that.

Or the day after that.

He had returned as if nothing happened on Thursday, and he simply told everyone that he had a bad cold, and was over it.

That filthy liar. Everyone else believed him, but not me. I was determined to find out why he wasn't at school those three days. He showed absolutely no signs of a previous cold.

-!-

Friday night, there I was, sitting on my roof again. Tonight's special was Date Movie, a movie that I had remarkably never seen before.

Only a couple of minutes into the movie, I saw the bright flashlight across the street again.

I never knew that one night, I would welcome that flashlight.

Tonight was a lucky pick.

Sora slumped down next to me, carrying two peanut butter and banana sandwiches, a creation he had showed me on Thursday after school.

I smiled, taking one sandwich and biting into it as if my life depended on it.

Yuffie Kisaragi loves peanut butter an banana sandwiches, yes she does.

Only a few minutes into the movie, we were both in hysterics, choking on bits of our sandwiches.

As the laughter died down, we started laughing again.

This continued for the full length of the movie.

When the credits were ending, the screen turning blank, I turned to Sora, determined.

"What was the real reason you were out of school for three days?"

Sora jumped, and looked at me with wide eyes.

"Wha-what do you mean, real r-reason? I had a cold, I really did and-"

"Alright. Then explain to me why you were just talking a million miles a minute."

"I told everyone that because, well, none were my real friends. Its something I don't really want to broadcast to the public." Sora said, scratching his head nervously.

"It's okay... You don't have to tell me."

"Yuff, I will one day."

That night, when Sora left, it was the first time I let my curiousity get the better of me.

I barely slept at all that night.

-!-

Finally, there was snow. It felt like three years had passed since I'd seen the fluffy substance, but I welcomed it, nonetheless.

It also felt like three years since my parents were home to be in the snow with me.

Of course, that was actually three years.

They were always out with friends, or out on business trips. They were as busy with social life as me. At night, they were alays at parties for whoever at whatever manor it was to attend that week.

I was really lucky I had my friends, or I'd be totally lost.

While I was pondering, I heard a loud knock on my front door. I hopped off of my kitchen barstool, and walked to the front of the house, yanking the door open.

There was Sora, covered in head to toe in snow.

Ohmuhgawd. Adorable.

Behind him was Rikku, Roxas, and Selphie, clad in what could serve as ski suits. They all waved happily.

"C'mon, Yuff, get dressed for crying out loud!" Rikku whined.

I smiled, nodded, and closed the door.

Pulling my large ski jacket, pants, and other layers of clothing out of my closet, I quickly got dressed, and finished the rest of my yummy peanut butter and banana sandwich.

-!-

I was laying down on my roof, this time not even watching a movie. People must have thought me crazy, as it was so cold out, but Sora didn't.

He climbed up on to the roof next to me, laying down and gazing at the night sky.

We barely even talked, we just looked at eachother occasionally, turning away when our gazes met.

I decided to sit up after about an hour, and Sora did the same.

Only three more minutes passed when it had happened.

"Um. Yuff?"

I turned to Sora slowly, smiling a little. "Yeah?"

He just kept staring at me.

He leaned forward, his hand over mine, his face growing closer and closer to mine. He reached behind me, and touched the back of my neck with his index finger. I slowly closed my eyes, anticipating the moment.

He jammed snow down my back.

I screamed, hell yes.

A/N: Yeah. Sorry to do that to you guys, its too early in the story for Yuffums and Sora to do anything about eachother.

Review, kthnx. :DDD
