Chapter 3.
I had rushed to the mall moments after Sora gave me the money for helping with the boxes, and I had bought food upon food upon well food. Of curse it all had to be dry stuff cause my refrigerator wasn't working anymore, and I had stuffed myself silly after putting most of it away. I flopped down on the dusty couch in my living room that was stationed on the left of the main hallway with a bag of chips in hand. Okay for those who are wondering about how the hell my house it set up it goes like this.
You walk through the front door and you're in my main hallway on the main floor. You can follow the hallway all the way down to my kitchen and find a table with two chairs and a broken fridge. If you take the first turn in the hallway then you would end up in a small bathroom, and if you took the second turn on the right then you would end up in the living room where I was currently stationed. If you just went straight up the stairs then you would be in the second main hallway and your first turn would end you up in my big bathroom with a working tub and shower and everything (oh wow). If you take the second turn on the right side you would end up in my room where everything was old and creaky but it was comfy as hell. Not that hell would be comfy, but hey you never know, if they had my bed everywhere it would be.
At the end of the main hallway is this big white door with all these cool black and white swirls all over the wood, but the whole time I've lived here I haven't been able to open it. I've found hundreds of keys in places like the bathroom under the tub, and in the basement in some of the pipes, but some of them don't even fit in the strange shaped keyhole. I have tried for years to get in, I can't even get in through the window, it was blocked from the inside by what I figured was a dresser, or a large mirror. God knows I had tried my best to get in, I had some sort of feeling there was something in that room that might have been important to finding out about my past, or why I was here alone.
I turned my attention away form these kinds of thought and lay down on the couch to stare at the ceiling in all of its white glory. I could hear some music playing outside and I heard a few voices. One of which struck my memory like cupids arrow.
" Come on Kairi this is your favorite song isn't?"
I stood up form the couch, after placing the chip bag on the floor and made my way upstairs to my bedroom. I could hear his voice coming form outside my widow. Was he in the side yard If so then I had full write to watch what ever he was doing didn't eye? Sure I did. Shhhh. I moved to the window and gazed down to see Sora and a girl dressed in the latest designer dress. I had seen some of these form a magazine the Professor had been reading. It was pink, that's all you need to know. And it had zippers. If not for the zippers then I would have had great distain for this girl straight away.
As you can tell pink isn't one of my favorite things. But this girl, she was cute. Like teddy bear cute. Red hair down to the shoulders, and a body of a gymnast. I figured out straight away that this girl must have been Kairi the one Sora had just called to. And then, just at the thought of him I noticed where he was. He was leaning against the wall of the house facing into the side yard. Gorgeous as always, he smiled at the girl as she walked over to him. At Sora's feet was a radio blasting a Shakira song, something like my hips. I couldn't remember the title.
" It sure is Sora." The girl said a smile coming to her lips.
She had a pretty voice. I decided then that I liked her then and there, besides a friend of Sora's was a friend of mine. I watched as Sora moved away form the wall and held his hand out to Kairi, as some sort of invite. Were they going inside, aw don't tell me the shows over. Just then, when Kairi took his hand, Sora pulled her to himself and he moved out farther into the yard away from the wall. I felt my jaw drop when Sora suddenly pulled off a dance move and turned Kairi around so that she wasn't acing him anymore. He planted his feet well in the dew soaked grass and let go of Kairi's hand.
I watched as Sora and Kairi danced, grinded, and shook to the beat of the hip-hop song. This, to me, was sheer blasphemy; to dance to something so poppy. And yet I would have killed to take that girls place. Sora was so hot as he danced, his hips grinding up into Kairi's and his hands at her hips, showing her the dance beats, and how to keep up with him. I felt some heat rise up in my face and I was damn happy that Sora hadn't seen it. I watched on as the two danced and I suddenly decided I didn't like that girl anymore.
Finally the song came to its end and Kairi pulled away form Sora. She smiled at him and I felt envy bubble up in my stomach, then suddenly that envy was replaced with shock when I came to a realization. No one would dance with someone like that unless they were dating, that must have meant that Sora was…No I refused to believe such a thing, the way he spoke to me before hand, that shocked but pleasured look on his face when he turned to see me leaning on his fence. But then again, that didn't mean he was well gay. I let my head drop forward and accidentally smashed my forehead into the siding of the smashed up windowpane, and howled in pain.
Both Kairi looked up and saw me fall back from the window in pain. I felt everything go dark as I passed out on the floor of my room.
00000000000000000000
The next thing I know I have this ice-cold pain shooting through my forehead and a voice is speaking my name. I'd never passed out before, and now I could say for sure that I never wanted to do it again.
" Riku?"
I opened my eyes just a crack ad I could already see those sapphire blue eyes in the haze that was my vision.
" S-sora?" I called out weakly.
" Easy." Sora said reassuringly." You smacked you head on the windowpane and I think you broken the glass, you might have a concussion so try not to get up for a little while, but no going back to sleep either alright?"
I nodded gingerly and shut my eyes again.
" Riku!" I heard Sora shout, but he seemed so far away for that single moment, then I felt a pair of lips brush over mine.
My eyes shot open but Sora was still right where he had been before. He hadn't moved at all. He smiled at me and pulled his hand away form my forehead, an ice pack placed in the palm of said hand. He placed the ice pack on his lap and brought his hand back to my forehead, covering my eyes at the same time. I opened my mouth slightly to protest the lose of my sight, but my lips met with Sora's index finger to silence me.
" No talking, I'm just checking up on the cut." I let my eyes flutter against his warm palm as he said this and I felt him chuckle a bit at the touch.
I could hear voices downstairs when Sora pulled his hand away and I instantly brought my own hand up to my forehead. I gingerly poked at it until I found the raw spot under some of my long bangs, and when I checked my fingers they were soaked in blood. I was a moron, how could I have smashed my damn head into the fucking window like that, what had I been doing? I was just beginning to lose my train of thought when a girl dressed in the latest designer dress with soft pink fabric and zippers al over the place. She smiled at me and then at Sora before she walked fully into the room and stood next to Sora.
" How's he doing Sora?" She asked.
Suddenly it all came back to me, her name was Kairi and she was…Sora's girlfriend. I felt my face fall into a glare in her direction but before she could catch me I turned my head away and mumbled about being fine, and that they shouldn't bother that it wasn't necessary. Sora looked at me in a bit of shock, but before I could say I was sorry he stood up and walked out of the room.
