Our True Feelings


Sora watched in pain as he saw Riku turn tail and run away from him. His reflex caused him to follow the delusional boy. His bright blue eyes locked on the figure growing larger and larger as he picked up speed. He could hear the faint voice of Kairi telling him to wait and come back. Sora didn't want to listen to the girl; he was determined to stop the silver haired boy from doing anything stupid and explaining to him what had happened. It was obvious that he had misunderstood what just happened only moments before. The wind was whipping at his face and his eyes watered as small grains of sand blew into them. His muscles ached from playing and building the raft earlier and his back was beginning to feel wet from him perspiring. The brunette didn't care; he didn't care about anything except Riku. Riku…the one he had unintentionally hurt.

Sora's body felt like it was just about to collapse from exhaustion, but he continued to gather all what was left of his strength to run faster. Riku was so close now; the older boy had just reached the pier and his own large shoes made dull footsteps on the chipping wood. Sora's own feet had just barely touched the pier when he knew his energy was about to give out on him and he lunged himself onto the now crouching boy. Both of their bodies made an impact and Sora clasped himself around Riku's waist. Riku immediately let go of the rope he was untying in his hand and he landed on his side on the pier, the younger boy lying on top of him. They stayed there for a moment before Riku pushed Sora off and turned to meet him with fierce eyes.

"Get away from me, Sora! Go back to your new girlfriend!" He pointed an insinuating finger at the smaller boy and raised his voice. His aqua eyes narrowed into slits as he took a few steps back, away from the other. His body was trembling in anger and his muscles were tense. The rubber soles of his shoes grinded into the wood he was standing on, causing it to creak a bit. He was beginning to feel the cool ocean air hitting against his pant legs signaling him to stand his ground if he didn't want to fall off the rickety dock all together and make a fool of himself, anymore than he probably did only earlier.

Sora put his hands up in an innocent manner, his eyebrows furrowing in confusion at the insinuation. He took a few more steps closer with his big yellow shoes, tilting his head to the side with a slight pout of his lips. "Riku…Kairi isn't my girlfriend. You must've not really saw what happened back there, but you are the one I really want to be with-"

The smaller boy was cut off by a scoff escaping Riku's lips. The silver haired boy whipped his head to the side, looking out towards the main island and squeezed his eyes tightly, crushing any tears that were stinging to fall. He bit his lip hard, drawing a bit of blood from the delicate skin to bead up a stain his teeth and petal soft lips. He shook his head delicately and tried to calm himself, refusing to believe anything Sora would say.

"Don't lie to me, Sora. I'm not an idiot. I should've known that what you said last night wasn't true, and you've always wanted to attempt to get with Kairi. You were just using me since it didn't seem like it was going to happen, weren't you?" He turned back and scowled darkly, his sea green eyes glistening with unshed tears and anger. "You were planning this from the beginning." His eyes slid shut and his voice was barely above a whisper.

Sora shook his head after each sentence that Riku spoke. None of what he said was true, but it hurt to hear. His small body began to shake in seething rage; he didn't know what to say or what to do as Riku blamed him for all these false actions. He could feel his eyes stinging and they were probably bloodshot from the run over and from sand blowing in them. He stared at the floor and examined the splintered wood of the docks and the small grains of sand stuck in between the planks. Realization struck him when he thought of what Riku might be truly angry about. He looked back up with his large cerulean eyes; the emotion within them couldn't even be deciphered. "You keep saying that was what I've been planning since the beginning and you seem to know way too much about me doing such things like that! That was probably what you were doing the whole time, Riku! You've been only using me for your own personal gain! While with me, you would try and get together with Kairi and if it didn't work out, you would always have me as back up!"

Small tears escaped Sora eyes as he yelled at the older boy. The hurt was evident in his voice, but he didn't even mean a single thing he said. He just spoke whatever came into his mind so he could get back at Riku for the hurtful things that were yelled at him earlier. He examined the aqua-eyed boy's face and his features softened when he noticed the look plastered on said boy's face. He instantly felt terrible and stepped forward towards the shocked boy. He reached out so he could apologize and explain everything. "Riku…" He called out, gently.

The longhaired boy snapped out of his delusional state and jerked his arm away from Sora. "Don't touch me!" He hissed, icily. He stepped away from the edge of the edge of the small pier. "I don't want to be with a whore who just plays with peoples' emotions!" His voice was low and menacing, dripping in false hatred.

Riku's eyes widened when what he said finally registered in his head. He looked into Sora's face and noted how the boy was just as shocked as he was. "Sora, I-"

A sharp stinging sensation slashed at Riku's right cheek and a loud slapping resonated around them, echoing about the small island. His eyes went wide, his face was shot over towards the left and the feeling stayed there. He could feel the pain just below his eye and he could feel it pulsating, almost. He almost lost his balance at the strength of the strike.

Out of reflex, Riku's right hand shot up and held onto the most likely red area as he looked into the piercing blue eyes of the person who slapped him. Sora's face was scrunched to form a rather ugly look on his usually innocent and naïve looking face. His nose was wrinkled and his upper lip was lifted a bit to meet with it. His eyes looked almost as though they were closed completely. He drew his hand back and planted it firmly at his side as he shot his head towards the floor, shaking and sniffling.

Riku's lower lip began to tremble, watching the wreck of emotions that seemed to burn within Sora's tiny body. He was shaking so violently out of confusion, hurt, depression, and anger. He began shaking his head again, at almost a mind-blowing rate, his hair probably giving him whiplash, but he didn't care. He shot his head up with many tears running down his face and stomped his foot to make his point. "I lost interest in Kairi as soon as you showed me that you had feelings for me…"

His head turned slightly to the side as he stared into the darkening water surrounding one of the small boats and furrowed his eyebrows, slightly. "…but it looks like I was wrong about you." He whispered.

Riku stared at the boy for a moment before deciding that he had enough with the insinuations. He balled his fists and felt his shoes sliding a bit on the old wood, spreading them to set himself firmly to stand his ground. His face ducked a bit as he gathered his courage to admit to Sora that he never had any feelings for Kairi whatsoever. He took a deep breath and raised his voice rather loudly.

"You are the only person I ever loved, Sora! It was never Kairi!" He could hear it echo around them and his voice felt a bit more parched than it did before. A sharp gasp shook him out of his solemn state. His face shot up to meet the surprised and blushing one of the brunette.

Sora brought a hand to cover his mouth as he blushed furiously at that loud declaration. 'Riku…loves me…?' The thought bounced around his head, seemingly repeating itself over and over again. He noticed how the longer Riku stared at him, the more his face morphed into realization to where his jaw began to drop and his exotic eyes widened more and more. They both stood there for only the gods knew how long, but it felt like an eternity. Pupils seemed to dilate with fear and anticipation. However, a small feminine voice from behind snapped the two boys out of their reverie.

"Sora! Riku! Wait up!" Kairi ran awkwardly towards the two frozen boys, her hands repeatedly pulling on her short skirt to keep it down as her face distorted at the feeling of sand kicking up and landing in her slip-ons.

Both boys turned their attention to her before the older one snorted something inaudible and walked off into the direction of the Secret Place. He kicked up sand occasionally as his large shoes were lifted from the sand, the small girl stopping for a moment to look in his direction before continuing her way towards the pier and plopping down on her behind.

She slipped off one of her shoes and let the tiny grains of sand slide out and fall in between one of the random gaps between the wood and into the sloshing seawater below. She looked up at Sora with large lavender eyes and titled her head in concern when he did not acknowledge her presence. Glancing back in the direction where Riku walked off, she screwed her full lips into an unrecognizable expression, as if a mixed between a smile and a frown. "What happened between you and Riku?" She asked quietly.

Sora continued to stare in the direction the other boy went and pouted. He was still extremely confused, but he didn't want to give off any signs to Kairi, so he decided to immediately change the subject. But to what? He looked around and noted how the clouds were growing dark and the sky was turning a deep blue gray, signaling it was going to rain sometime soon. Really soon. The clean smell of rain rose to his nostrils and then he moved his gaze towards the route they normally took to get back to the main island. The weather didn't seem as though it had affected it, yet. Which was fortunate, but they would have to get back quickly before the winds picked up. He glanced back in the direction of the Secret Place and then down to Kairi, who had finished putting her shoes back on and was now straightening out her skirt. He figured Kairi and he should get back, but what about Riku? He couldn't just leave him here.

Sighing softly, Sora directed his attention fully towards the delicate redhead. "Kairi, it looks like it's going to rain really soon. It'll be a good idea if you go back home before the tide gets too high and it's too dangerous to row back." He smiled gently at her and placed a hand on one of her slim shoulders.

Her eyes widened and began looking at the sky, herself. A worried look graced her usually perky face and she placed a hand to rest softly on her breast. "But…what about you, Sora? And Riku?" She asked in almost a panicking manner.

The brunette shook his head slowly with a small smile on his lips. "Don't worry, I'm going to try and get him, but I don't want anything to happen to you, either."

"But…I don't want you to go alone!" She raised her voice a little higher and she clasped her hands together on her chest to plead. Her knees buckled and her heels began to spread far apart while her toes stayed anchored together.

Sora crossed his arms and gave her a mock scolding look. "I'll be fine, Kairi! Just please, go back before it gets too dangerous." He answered reassuringly, tapping one of his large sun-colored sneakers on the ground.

Giving the boy one last pleading look, the small girl shrugged with a passive "all right". She hopped into her boat, blushing when she felt her skirt being uplifted by the wind that seemed to be picking up a bit and she shot her hands to push it down as she sat. Sora rolled his eyes, wondering why she keeps insisting on wearing such short clothes whenever she goes out to play and run. Letting out a nervous giggle, Kairi grab hold of her oars and gave Sora another sad look. "See ya, Sora." She said softly before rowing towards the large island.

The ocean-eyed boy just waved and watched the girl leave, making sure she would be okay and the winds didn't pick up too much while she was there. She was almost of out of sight when a small raindrop landed on Sora's nose. He wrinkled it in surprise and looked up at the sky. More rain began to fall. He reached a hand out to catch a few raindrops. A small puddle began to fill in his palm and another drop of water smacked him on his forehead. He pouted and looked out in the distance to see where Kairi was, he couldn't see the girl any longer. Letting out a breath he didn't know he was holding, Sora turned and stalked off towards the dark cave next to the waterfall.

During his short little journey, the winds and rain had picked up quickly. He wasn't even halfway towards the Secret Place when his clothes had gotten so wet that they were clinging to his lithe frame and sending shivers up his spine. He pressed his arms close to his chest for warmth, but that only made his arms and body colder due to the icy rainwater that soaked his red outfit. His spiky hair had fallen in his face, drenched in water and clung to his cheeks and the back of his neck. He cringed whenever he took a step for he heard and felt the squish of his soaked shoes. He finally made it to the small cavern by the time a loud crash of thunder rumbled behind him. Sniffling a little and rubbing his nose, Sora lifted up some stray vines that covered the entrance and crouched down to enter. Silently thanking that the inside of the cave was warm, but still a bit moist, he tried his best to not get too close to the ground otherwise the dry sand would stick to his wet clothes.

He continued to walk through the small corridor, pushing away the random vines falling down and swatting bugs that flew into his face. He mentally cursed how annoying one fly was has he pushed aside the last remaining garland-like plant and entered the main area of the cave. He looked around, smiling at the drawings on the wall and let his gaze stop on the silver haired boy crouching in front of one. He traced the shaky lines with one of his gloved hands as he examined the childish drawings of Kairi and Sora. He had to squint to make out the rougher drawing of Kairi. Her hair looked more like Riku's than hers when she was younger. It was hard to distinguish who the drawing was of. He was easily able to tell it was Sora's work anyway, the boy couldn't draw very well when he was younger, and still sort of can't. He allowed a smile stretch across his tear stained face when he thought of this. He was so deep in thought that Riku didn't even her the dragging footsteps behind him.

"I was thinking of you when I drew that." A shivery voice snapped Riku out of his daydreaming. His face rose a bit at hearing the random comment. Sora was leaning over his shoulder, small drops of water falling from his drenched locks fell onto the sand surround them, and he smiled when Riku made a motion to turn around and look at him.

Riku suddenly stood and turned sharply to meet the boy. His eyes had a cold shimmer in them causing Sora's smile to melt away and step back in nervous confusion. But Sora wasn't going to turn tail and run because it seemed like Riku was still made at him. He was going to resolve this fight, it hurt whenever the older boy was angry with him. He gritted his teeth, but then something unexpected happened.

Without any warning, strong arms wound themselves around Sora's small body and held him close to Riku's larger one. It wasn't a crushing embrace, but a loving and protective one. Riku hid his face within the crook of the younger boy's shoulder and neck, breathing almost silent words of apology. Sora almost shuddered at the warm breath and meekly wrapped his own arms around the paler boy's slim waist. He rested his chin upon one of his broad shoulders, slowly allowing his eyes to slide closed. "Riku…" He breathed out.

"I'm sorry, Sora. For everything I said and for running off. Gods, I'm sorry." Riku whispered against his neck, brushing a hand apologetically in his wet hair.

"Riku…" Sora breathed again and attempted to look into the older teen's eyes, but was held in place by his hand. He smiled softly and rested his chin again on his shoulder. "I'm sorry, too…" He said in a low, breathless voice.

They stood there for a few moments before realization struck both of them that the smaller brunette boy was dripping wet and the front of Riku's yellow shirt was beginning to match him. Riku pulled them out of their embrace and held Sora at arm's length, his hands resting on his shoulders, rubbing up and down, the friction causing him to warm up. He looked at the boy in a concerned manner, kneeling down slightly to look in to his face with his piercing aqua eyes. "Sora, why are you so wet?" He asked.

"Oh…heh!" Sora pulled one of his arms away from Riku's and threw it behind his head to scratch at his neck. "It started raining earlier and I didn't want to leave you here, by yourself."

Riku raised an eyebrow and took another look at his now shivering body, noting how his lips were beginning to get a definite blue tinge. "You better get out of those clothes before you get really sick, Sora." His voice was firm, but soft to show his concern as he began to peel off the drenched hoodie.

Sora pulled away and shook his head with a goofy grin painted on his face.

"No! It's okay! Besides, it'll be weird if I'm not wearing anything and you are!" He laughed with childlike nervousness at the thought of getting undressed while the older boy could just watch and probably laugh.

The silver haired boy looked up at a random direction before busting up into fits of laughter. He threw a hand to rest on his forehead, pressing at his temples, as if to stifle himself. Sora pouted. "What's so funny?" He whined.

"You! It's not as though we haven't been in that sort of situation, anyway! What makes it so strange now?" He said, placing his free hand over his mouth in an attempt to stop his laughter.

The brunette huffed and put his hands firmly on his slim hips, blushing as he tried to think of how to word his answer properly. "W-well, those times it was different! We w-were doing st-stuff." He ran a hand through his hair, blinking his eyes as a few drops of water fell in his face.

Riku sighed, crossing his arms across his broad chest and stared at Sora expectantly. He tapped one of his index fingers on his bicep, giving the younger boy a look that said: "We're not moving until you get undressed."

Sora gulped loudly and began to take off his hoodie, extremely slowly. He leveled his gaze back with the stare of the older boy's exotic stare. "F-fine! But you better not laugh or anything!" He pointed an accusing finger towards the now smirking boy and blushed.

Riku shrugged. "How about I get undressed with you? Would that make you feel better?"

Sora's blush grew tenfold as he imagined Riku being naked with him. Well, almost naked, but close enough. "I-if you want." He muttered as he tossed the wet article of clothing on the floor with squelch.

The brunette looked up to see if Riku was actually going to get dressed, but his jaw dropped as soon as the taller boy came into view. He already had taken off his tight yellow shirt and was already working on getting his shoes off. He didn't even notice how he had paused in removing his clothes as he continued to watch Riku kick off his boots and begin taking off his pants.

By the time both the puffy outer layer and the jeans were taken off and the paler boy was left in his boxers, Sora probably would've fainted from a nosebleed. For some reason, it was different seeing Riku without any clothes on now than it was before. It also felt like it stirred something in Sora's nether regions as he saw each muscle moving fluidly under his pale skin. He was shaken from his musings when he heard the object of his staring clear his throat loudly. He looked up and grinned stupidly at the scolding look he received.

"C'mon, Sora! If you don't get undressed, quickly, you might not even be able to avoid getting sick." Riku said in a manner that sounded like a mother scolding her child. He crossed his arms as he saw the tan boy nod and begin to remove his large shoes.

He fiddled around with the shoes laces much longer than needed out of embarrassment of being caught ogling Riku. He knew he'd blush even brighter than he probably already was when he looked into those sea green eyes again. After about a good five minutes, he tossed his insanely huge shoes to meet up with Riku's and he stood up to unzip his red jumpsuit. Apparently, he took too long, because Riku just grunted and began doing it for him.

"R-riku! What are you doing?"

"You're taking too long, Sora. It'll be faster if I do it for you." Riku said coolly and dragged the zipper down in one swift moment. He slid the sleeves down Sora's narrow shoulders and pulled the entire garment in an almost lightning fast speed.

Sora was now matching Riku, wearing only his boxers, and pressed his hands to his chest to keep warm.

"There we go, you shouldn't have to worry about getting sick now." Riku sighed and sat down against a rock. He allowed his hands to flop down and rest on the sandy ground, limply.

An almost content smile spread on his face until he opened his eyes and saw Sora shivering not too far away from him. Looking back at the boy's clothes, there would be no doubt he would be freezing even without them on. He stretched out his hand for the other to grab on to. "Why don't you sit with me, Sora? Heh, we can share body heat." He chuckled a bit at his clever idea.

Without any hesitation, Sora practically lunged at the seated boy and clasped his hands around his waist. He curled his legs under his body to meet with Riku's lower abdomen, sighing at the warmth radiating off.

Riku laughed and wrapped his own arms around the smaller boy's frame. His lips pressed against the soft skin of Sora's now exposed neck, and began to nibble softly as he tightened his embrace. Sora made a noise and pulled back away from the warm body and looked at Riku with a look of curiosity. "Riku, what're you doing?"

"I know of a way to warm both of us up in no time." Riku spoke seductively with a naughty smirk hinting at what he meant.

Bright blue eyes widened and if it were possible, Sora's head would've done a complete 360 when he finally caught onto what Riku was meaning. "What? N-no, we can't! Not here, Riku…"

"Why not? It's not like there's anybody on the island, so no one can walk in on us." Riku pulled the boy back towards his body, nipping at his shoulder. Sometimes, sucking on the area to make the already red area even more noticeable, as to mark his territory. One of his hands began to travel down Sora's back, in a massaging movement, causing the brunette to let out a few involuntary purrs.

"Nnnh…R-riku…" Sora mewed, pressing his body closer. He uncurled his legs, allowing them to fall on each side of Riku's hips, almost straddling him. His arms moving to wrap around his neck and rested his face on his shoulder, screwing his eyes shut.

Riku began to shift his body, gently beginning to lower forward onto the ground for Sora to be on his back. His knees tucked under and slowly fell onto the ground in a sudden movement, Sora yelping loudly at the sudden contact.

"Uh…sorry." The silver haired boy said after leaving a series of butterfly soft kisses along his shoulder and reaching up to his ear. He began to nip and suckle on Sora's earlobe, gaining shudders from the body below him.

Sora pulled away to meet Riku's face and shook his head in understanding. "It's okay." He whispered, panting softly.

Riku smiled, a soft breathy sound escaping him that sounded almost like a laugh. He then claimed the brunette's lips, while his hands run down Sora's sides and resting on his hips. His fingers played with the rim of the boy's boxers, pushing them down slightly and pulling them back up. Riku's eyes almost widened when he felt Sora's tongue peak out of his lips and try and push itself through his own.

Riku obliged him and opened his mouth, letting his own tongue meet up with the intruding one. They both intermingled with one another, in almost an erotic dance within the depths of the older boy's mouth.

They both pulled away, breathless and flushed, and stared into each other's eyes while they attempted to calm their ragged breathing and rapidly beating hearts. Riku's hands were now grasped onto Sora's boxers and pulling them down inch by inch. He motioned with his silvery eyebrows for permission to continue. Sora glanced down and blushed. His eyes looked up, but his face stayed put, in a pleading manner.

"You too." He squeaked and squirmed around to keep his body firmly on the ground. He looked back down and turned his chin as far as he could to hide the expected vibrant blush.

He felt the warm body leave him with an amused laugh coming from Riku. He looked back up to catch a view of the older boy swiftly pulling down his own boxers and tossing them in his pile of clothes. Sora's bright cerulean eyes widened and he blushed further. Exotic sea green eyes looked back at him and Riku smirked. He walked back over and climbed back on top of the blushing boy. His hands traveled back down his body and clasped onto the offending material that blocked their bodies from meeting skin against skin. Their eyes locked and he pulled Sora into a deep tantalizing kiss as he pulled down the garment.

A small muffled moan was heard and Sora lifted his buttocks off of the ground when the piece of clothing wouldn't go down any further. Riku broke the kiss and moved away so he could remove the material fully off of the small body. He tossed it off in a random direction before settling himself back on top of Sora, who groaned when he felt the contact of bother of their burning skin upon the other and their erections brushed against one another.

A devious smile stretched across Riku's face as an idea struck him and he aligned their hips as perfectly as he could. He grinded down, tearing a long moan from Sora's throat and he, himself, groaned at the feeling. Small ragged breaths escaped Sora's lips as he whispered Riku's name over and over, begging for more.

Riku rewarded him by grinding his body down again, both receiving long hard moans from the other. Sora looked up at Riku with his innocent eyes hazed over with lust and pleaded. "Please, Riku…more."

Nodding, the silver haired boy continued to let their erections grind against one another. The pleasure was almost mind blowing for them, not only from the treatment Riku was giving, but from the thought of this being their first time having their skin meet against one another in such an intimate way. Riku reached down between their bodies and fondle both himself and Sora whenever he allowed his hips to lift before falling back down into another frenzy of rubbing and almost crushing against one another.

A loud scream came from Sora at the same time as Riku threw this head back in climax and both of them erupted between their sweaty heated bodies. Their bodies went rigged as Riku almost collapsed on top of the panting body beneath him. He turned his body just barely to the side so he can lie next to Sora and pull him into his arms.

Sora turned into the embrace allowing his head to rest on his chest, snuggling. He began closing his eyes and mumbling softly into Riku's heaving chest. Riku buried his face in the mess of still damp brown locks; he began closing his own eyes. "I…love you, Sora." He said softly, yet in an uneasy matter.

Sora nodded sleepily. "Me, too."

Riku smiled and planted a soft kiss in his hair before drifting off to sleep. He felt secure, and warm, just holding the younger boy. Despite being in such a dank and dark place, nothing mattered to him anymore. He felt like he could do anything, just being with Sora. He never felt such a feeling being with anyone, yet he didn't know what it meant.
