Five: "I'll walk you home."
Time passed far too quickly whenever they were together. Before long it was dark out and Riku couldn't stop casting glances into the shadows that lurked around every corner. Xion's hand clasped in his was a small comfort, but the fragile thing building between them made him worry more than he should.
"I'll walk you home." The words slipped out before he could stop them. "I mean, if that's okay with you."
"What about you, Riku?" She asked. He felt her fingers tighten slightly around his.
"I'll be fine. Please, just let me do this."
I can't lose you again.
Next time: "I dreamt of you last night."
