A/N: Go ahead and hate me all that you want, I won't care. .. I was too lazy to even update this time around, even though I had no excuses. I've just been so busy with my personal life right now that you guys probably wouldn't even understand. But since I felt so guilt this chapter for not updating any sooner when I should have, I added some fluffy just for you guys.

Originally, I had another idea but after the butterfly of guilt came around, I decided to change it. Special Note: I know alot of you don't like the fact that Yuffie and Kairi are being total wenches to eath other, but hey guys, this is how school is. And I talk through experience. If one friend is bitchin' at another friend, than that other friend isn't going to take it; she's going to fight back. But since there has been a couple of complaints, I've decided to lay back on the surliness.

"Picasso was perhaps .." History 101 was the most boring class in school for anybody who had taken it up. And nobody would disagree with that fact. Especially Kairi. As the teacher of the History class ranted on about some famous artist named Picardo or something along those lines, Kairi carefully and gently tapped her pencil against the wooden desk. Maybe I should apologize to Yuffie .. I totally acted like a bitch towards her .. Even though she acted like one towards me ..

BZZZ!

Kairi's thoughts were quickly interrupted as the vibration of her cellphone went off in her pocket. She placed her hand in her jean pocket and slowly pulled out her cellphone. It was most likely Selphie, apologizing for Yuffie's behavior and then asking her to forgive her .. that was how it usually was when the two friends were fighting. However, when Kairi rested the cellphone on her lap after taking it out of her pocket, a smile instantly lit on Kairi's face.

D8 TONITE?

Looking up from her lap to the front of the room, Kairi checked to make sure her teacher was still too occupied with the History of Art to notice that her cellphone was now rested in her lap. Still lecturing on the artist, Kairi chuckled to herself and then returned her eyeballs back to the screen of the cell. She placed her fingers on the keypads and slowly and gently began to reply to the text message. In minutes, Kairi pushed down on the 'send' button and awaited for a response.

sure
...
...
...
BZZ!

GR8. CARNIVAL?
Kairi looked up to the teacher one more, but still he was occupied from talking to notice. What a whack job. Looking back down to her lap, Kairi responded to Sora's text message once again.

K! TIME?

...
...
...
BZZZZZ!

UR HOUZE, 7

Without thinking, Kairi squealed in delight after moments later of turning off the cellphone and placing it down into her pocket. She put her hands in her lap neatly but soon enough started to grab onto her pant's material with her fingers; one of the things she did when she was stressed or nervous. Oh my .. Oh my .. What should I wear? Should I wear a dress? No .. it's the carnival .. Oh god! What am I going to wear .. Gosh, I wonder what Sora is going to wear ...

"Kairi?"

Snapping back into reality, Kairi looked up from the floor and towards the front of the room where the teacher had adressed her.

"W-what! Yes?"

"What was Picasso's most famous piece?"

"I- I don't know .."

"Too busy on your cellphone to listen?"

"..." The class giggled at their own expense of amusement.

"Fine then. Detention on Friday at 3 o' clock."

Kairi looked into the mirror of her closet and did a little pose. She hoped she wasn't overdressing for her date .. A black music tee shirt with 'God Save The Queen', a jean mini skirt, pink leg warmers, Chuck Taylor's, and a dab of lipgloss wasn't too high matienance looking, was it? She hoped not. Sora was probably wearing some baggy shorts and some music shirt, so it wasn't like they'd look mixed and matched. Looking back into the mirror, Kairi tried on a sweet but yet innocent smile. However, before the dimples could appear, she swiped off the smile.

"Kairi, door!"

"Right!"

Turning her back on the mirror, Kairi skipped over to the base of her bed and gently picked up her purse that was decorated in a whole bunch of worn out stickers. Zipping out of the room and down the stairs, it only took a mere second before she had reached the entry way. Quickly coming to the door, she rested her hand on the doorknob and slowly turned it open to find her date at his arrival. And when she did, that sweetly innocent smile came on before a second could quickly pass.

Sora kept his gaze onto the ground below his feet while he awaited for someone to open the door. He couldn't believe he was doing this. Right now, he could have been at home, playing some video game and pigging out on food. But instead, he was intitled to his dare and had to be picking up his "crush" for the date to the carnival. A waste of time, if you asked him. He just didn't hope he'd run into anybody from school that'd he know. Then he'd be ruined for sure ...

Hearing the creaking of the door to the house open, Sora slowly looked up from the ground and towards the doorway. When he did, he tried to keep himself from keeping his jaw drop if that only be it. At the doorway, there was none other than Kairi of course. But rather than looking 'cute' like she normally did, ... she was looking rather attractive. Also known as hot. He felt himself turn red on the cheeks, but did his best to ignore it.

"H-hey."

Kairi giggled.

"Hey."

"Ready to g-go?"

"Mhm!"

When they arrived at the carnival, Kairi stared in awe while her date paid the expenses to get in. "..." It was so hard to believe that it was that beautiful. It was so much like a fairy tale book; there was a roller coaster and in the distance, you could hear the amused screams of those on it, close to the shoreline was the ferris wheel where a sunset was painted in the sky behind it, and all around were those of friends and families walking around and playing games as they enjoyed their sweet, sweet time.

"..."

"It's beautiful, isn't it?" Sora said as he handed Kairi her ticket.

"Mhm .."

"Kind of like you."

Kairi looked over to Sora who was standing at her side. His eyes were closed and he was smiling like there was no worry in the world. Because his smile was so entrancing, Kairi could feel herself blushing. But when Sora opened his eyes, he didn't seem to care or notice. Instead, he took her hand and began to lead her into the carnival. She was now blushing for two reasons. I can't believe I'm walking hand in hand with Sora .. at the carnival, especially! Gosh, I feel like such a love struck fool ..

"Where do you want to go first? The Ferris Wheel?"

"Um .. not right now, there's a line .. and it takes forever to move," Kairi said as she carefully examined the line of where people were waiting to get on.

"Ah, come on, lines aren't bad!"

"Heh, maybe you're just a lazy bum and like standing and waiting..."

"What!"

Kairi started to giggle as she saw from the corner of her eye. Sora look at her with his mouth slightly opened. Even though she knew he was somewhat shocked of her saying such a thing on a date, she began to giggle even more. Though she was trying to stop it, she shook her head slightly and dropped the subject of her new 'pet' name for him. Ignoring the stare from him, she opened her mouth once more, but not to giggle.

"Wanna go on the roller coaster then the Ferris Wheel?" Sora asked.

"Uh, okay .. "

10 minutes later.

"Do you know how fast this thing goes?" Kairi heard Sora ask as the people who worked on the Roller Coaster, buckled them in.

"80 miles per hour."

"What!" Kairi quickly blurted.

"Ha ha!"

Kairi quickly looked over to Sora in their seat as he was laughing at her reaction. She was just about to tell the people to let her off, but then the beeping of the speakers rang, indicating that the ride was now starting. As the carts began to move up the arch of the ride slowly, Sora continued laughing as Kairi stared at him in disbelief. Oh god .. I'm going to throw up .. I know it .. Oh god .. Don't try to though .. Then Sora will never wanna go anywhere with you again...

"Scared?" Sora asked.

"N-no .."

"Ha ha, yes you are"

"No, I'm not!"

"Are too!"

"Are no" Kairi's sentence exploded into a scream before it could be finished. While her and Sora had been arguing one whether she was scared, the Roller Coaster had been slowly reaching the top of the peak where it would drop. Finally in moments, it did and Kairi hadn't noticed until her stomach moved over and up to her throat. Still screaming at the top of her lungs as the ride took its toll, Sora was laughing as if it was a piece a cake.

"Ha ha ha ha ha, wheee! Ha ha ha ha!"

As the carts quickly moved up the next and taller peak, Kairi screamed in fear. .. While Sora laughed at her because of this. Seeing how quickly they were advancing, Kairi decided to distract her attention. Looking away from ahead and down towards the seat where they were sat, she noticed Sora's hand sitting in between them, freely. Just about when they were going to go down again, Kairi quickly held onto his hand and pulled him closer with it. Without any warning given to Sora, Kairi buried her head into his shoulder as she felt them going down. She ceased from throwing up, and instead screamed.

"Sora, when I fall, you'd better catch me!"
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

"I knew you'd scream on that ride."

"Nu uh!"

"Kairi, c'mon."

Kairi looked away from down below as they sat on the slowly esclading Ferris Wheel, and towards Sora who was sat next to her. Like before, he smiling at her. Kairi quickly looked away from embarrasment but then looked back to Sora to find that he smile had faltered into a much softer one. But as this happened, something struck Kairi.

Quickly looking away not from embarrasment , she narrowed her eyes at the ground.

"What's wrong Kairi?"

"... That smile .."

"Is there something in my teeth?"

"..."

Kairi quietly listened as she heard Sora rub his shirt neck line against his teeth, to wipe away if there had been anything stuck or on his pearly whites.

"No, there isn't Sora."
".. Then what is it?"

Turning around once more, she confronted Sora and decided that she wouldn't look away. Normally before she had been an outspoken person and would say what was on her mind. But lately around him she couldn't do that lately. However, after the sudden flashback, Kairi had decided she would speak what was on her mind for that time being.

"Sora, do you remember when we were in eigth grade? ... And I was walking down the hall with Yuffie and Selphie when you suddenly came up to me and stuck your gum in my hair? But as I looked to you mortified, you just smiled at me and then walked away?"

"... Yeah .."

"Do you remember earlier that day when we'd supposedly made a pact to leave each other alone forever and no more, in study hall? .. And that you betrayed me like that just later that day with the gum issue?"

"..."
"Well, that smile you just smiled me at with .. That was just like the same smile you showed off when you'd walked away after sticking the gum in my hair .."

"Kairi, I was stupid then; really immature. I did that because .. well, I don't know, I was stupid! Kairi, I really like you now."

"... How am I supposed to believe that? After all that stuff you did to me?"

x Sora's Point of View x
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

As Sora studied her silently, he could easily tell that she was afraid of getting hurt again. .. And that she was having trouble believing him. For a few minutes there, he really did feel guilty about then. However, not only that. But this too. He couldn't believe he was suddenly developing feelings for her when it was only supposed to be a stupid, childish dare.

Sora slightly shook his head. He didn't know what to do, except for one thing.
"... I don't know what to believe, Sora."

"Then believe this."

Without asking for her permission, he knew it was the right thing to do. Not only because it was going to have to be involved in the dare sooner or later, but he knew she wanted it. And he knew that he wanted it. Never, in a million years, would he have last week even thought about kissing Kairi on a Ferris Wheel or where ever it was.

Leaning in, Sora gently placed his hand upon her cheek and kissed her lips. But rather of her leaning away in disapproval, she kissed him right back. And that, was their first kiss. But certaintly not their last.
