Sora was woken up by someone shaking him awake. He opened his eyes to see blue eyes looking into his. He sat up with a startled cry. "Sora, did he really do that?" Cloud asked his younger brother. Sora looked at him before his gaze traveled over to Goofy and Donald standing by the door. "You told Cloud? Come on guys!" he said as he groaned and fell back onto his bed. "Sora! Tell me now! Don't get mad at them. I came over for a visit and saw your car outside. Now tell me!" Cloud said as he sat on the bed and looked directly into his eyes. Sora nodded slowly, not breaking contact with Cloud. Cloud stood up immediately and started to walk out. "Cloud! What are you going to do?" Sora said as he scrambled out of his bed and ran after him. "You remember my promise. If he ever hurt you he's dead. Now I need to go carry out my promise. It wasn't just to you but to him and if I don't carry it out he'll think I've gone easy on him." Cloud said not stopping. Sora panicked but didn't stop him. He suddenly calmed down. Riku deserved what was coming to him.
Sora sat up when he heard Cloud's footsteps board the ship. He looked at the door until Cloud finally entered. "Well?" he asked. "Let's just say he won't be going anywhere for awhile." Cloud said before he walked to the small kitchen. Sora couldn't help but be slightly worried about his ex-lover. He quickly shook his head rid of all thought of guilt or sadness. He wouldn't give in to the boy who cheated on him. He lay back down and rolled over on his side. He let sleep take him over for the moment. Later he went to the area where Cloud, Donald, and Goofy were sitting. Cloud looked over at him and motioned for him to sit down. "Sora, I think we need to move." Cloud said. Sora looked at him and frowned. "Nothing big. Just across the island." Cloud continued. Sora sat in thought before nodding slowly. This would be the best way to keep his thought from Riku. He knew it was true. He wouldn't dwell on the past.
It was a week after Cloud made the suggestion that he moved. Cloud would live with Sora for awhile until he figured Sora had officially gotten over Riku. They didn't have any trouble finding a house because of one of Cloud's friends. Sora flopped onto his bed that was just put in a couple of hours ago. "Are we done yet?" he asked. Cloud shook his head. "We can just move the rest of the stuff in tomorrow so we can rest for the rest of the night." He answered the tired Sora. Before long he heard a slight snoring and looked over at his younger brother. He smiled slightly. Sora was always so careless but when he was hurt emotionally it took him forever to get over it. Then something caught his attention. He bolted up and hurriedly went over to his brother's side. He carefully so as not to wake him rolled up the sleeve on his left arm. There it was. The mark of the heartless that ad almost killed him. And it wasn't the scar that was left. The outlining and everything was there. "Shit." He said under his breath. "How are we supposed to get rid of it this time? He doesn't have a love now!" he said quietly to himself. Sora rolled over in his sleep. This was a big problem.
Sora woke up at his usual time and got dressed quickly. His mind was on the events that had happened only a week ago. He shook his head and had the door halfway open when a voice stopped him. "Hello? Unpacking remember?" Cloud said as he came into sight. Sora grinned sheepishly. "Sorry but I got to go to work today. My boss wouldn't give me even two day off." He answered before he walked out and shut the door behind him. When he arrived at the arcade (it's where he works), he went to the back and greeted his friends who worked there. Wakka kept looking at his arm. "What's the matter Wakka?" Sora asked when he noticed this. "Hey dude! You still have that tattoo from two years back! I thought you got it removed." He said. "I did." Sora answered with a questioning look. "Then what's this?" he asked as he pulled up the sleeve to reveal the mark. Sora's eyes went wide when he saw this started to panic inwardly. What would he do? "How did that get there? It's not supposed to be there anymore!" Sora exclaimed. Wakka obviously thought it was a fake act. "Ya brother, like you didn't know that your hair is brown." Was what was responded. Sora looked at him. "No really!" he said. Wakka nodded but his disbelief showed on his face. "Whatever." He said before getting to work. Why was it there?
No comment. I just wanna know what you think.
