Hidden Passion-Chapter 5

by creativepassion

We are approaching somewhat of a finale, keep reading and reviewing the chapters. I love feedback more than anything to writing these, so please, write away. If you would like to further contact me for other stories or notes on this one, just ask me. As you can see from my poem in Chapter 3 and Riku's words, I have a passion for writing and the characters of Kingdom Hearts. And now...action!

Riku did not know how to feel by this attempt to stop his suicide. He waited for a reply, but none came. Kairi's tears were running down her face and she kept shaking her head. "Please Riku," she finally sputtered. "Don't do this…I know it's hard, but you would've made Sora mad were he here. And…please Riku….I can't stand to lose two friends all in one day. I don't have a crush on you or anything else, but when you are around, you remind me of the times I've had with Sora. Please…Riku….anything..."

"Kairi," Riku swallowed and continued. "I very much appreciate your concern, but listen to me. I have always loved you as a friend too, but Sora...well…you know." Riku's eyes began to glisten and water up like Kairi's. "Sora was….everything to me. I always thought you were the destined soul mates, so I was fine with that. I always wanted Sora, but I would've been happy if he was…because I loved him, with all my heart. To know that I can't be with him, let alone even watch him grow over the years…well…it really hurts. The pain is so excessive, I don't know if living is worth it. Sora WAS my reason for living; through him I was able to sustain life. Without him, I feel like a part of me is gone. I can't eat, walk, or even breathe right without my thoughts returning to him. And when I think of him, the pain returns. A life of pain isn't worth living…you don't understand…" The moment of silence was filled by the rumbling of the sky above, a storm was coming.

"Riku….I know it hurts…but please reconsider and….." Kairi stopped and then turned her head and peered down starting hard as if to try and identify something." OH MY GOSH…LOOK RIKU..."

The thoughts of his life all went away and he looked down. His heart and enthusiasm shot into the sky. "HE'S ALIVE!" Kairi couldn't tell, but Riku could tell his lover from anyone else. Running faster and faster than he had ever in his life, he raced down the island top to the shore. His legs were hurting, but he didn't stop. It's as if his body was nothing more than a carrier, and all that mattered to him was that he got to his destination. Like a cheetah, he never knew he could run this fast. Kairi was trying hard to keep up, but couldn't compare to that of Riku's passion. The rain began to drizzle and get heavier and heavier. Not even the weather could prevent him this time.

He approached Sora's body, all bruised and tattered. His shirt was gone, and his pants were ripped. Yet to Riku's eyes, the sight of his beloved was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen. He dove down beside Sora and flipped his body over. Sora opened his eyes and cracked a smile. "Hey sexy….thought I wouldn't see you again. Oh, thanks for the poem…it was beautiful." Sora handed Riku the bottle with the poem he wrote. Riku started to just weep and laugh at the same time. His emotions were going crazy because of the way today had turned out. He went from almost ending his life to now about to leap out of his skin.

He placed a kiss on Sora's lips and then stood up. The one kiss turned into many kisses. Soon, with the little strength he had, Sora rose up and put full effort back into the kissing. And there they both sat, two soul mates exchanging passion in the rain. Their bodies were soaking wet and cold, yet the heat between the two was extreme. Suddenly, the piece that Sora was to Riku finally fit into the puzzle. The two lovers were cuddled together, now heavily kissing. Riku then stopped in concern for Sora's health. Kairi just grinned from behind.

Sora said, "I'm fine Riku, just take me home, I'm just tired. I think my kissing just proved that."

"Anything you say my love, I will do. I thought I had lost my only precious thing in the entire universe, and I was about to end my life. You mean that much to me Sora….there is no substitute for love. And I can't have that same love without you." Riku put Sora on his back, and walked to his house.

After the doctor examined Sora and all his family talked to him. To his wishes, they left him at Riku's house. Riku slid Sora into bed and put the covers around him. Then, as Riku began to leave Sora said, "Wait Riku….would you please sleep with me tonight? I've spent my entire life in love with you, and didn't learn you loved me until I got your note. Now that we are together again…I don't wanna waste another moment of my life without you in it."

"Sora…if you weren't so damn cute when you said that, I'd say get your rest. However, being parted from you for what seemed like years, I would have to agree with what you just said more than anything ever in my life. Living and existing in this crazy world is like trying to eat without food. In other words, you are the only thing that can fill my appetite. I would be honored to join you tonight in rest." With that said Riku climbed into bed next to Sora and lay right by him. He set his hand on Sora's thighs scooted as close as he could. They nudged each other's head and cuddled before setting off into sleep. He never wanted to be away from his love again…never….

Well, that would make one hell of an ending. Except, well...it's not. There's still more to come. Once again, stay tuned. Remember those lemons I was talking about..:P
