Six: "I dreamt about you last night."


"I dreamt about you last night," Riku said, speaking slowly — at the same pace that the memories were drifting back to him. "And the night before that, too."

He had sought her out over and over again, as if pulled toward her by some invisible tide... and he'd fought those same waves each time he had to wake up. "I tried so hard to remember, but it was like holding grains of sand. They kept slipping away from me."

She reached out to cup her hand over his and smiled. "It looks like you're holding on to them, now."


Author: WHAT'S THIS? AN UPDATE? AN ACTUAL UPDATE? Yes, yes it is. I found the old file recently and wanted to pick it up again and figured today would be a good day to drop a new chapter. xD

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, AMATUS!

There's a reference to "A Dream Within A Dream" by Poe in this chapter, which is also a very Riku/Xion themed poem...

It also might be worth going back to re-read the old drabbles because I revised them to match my current writing style (no major changes were made, though, just minor wording tweaks.)

Next time: "Have a good day at work!"
