A/N: I had the second chapter already written so I just decided to put it up. xD I don't know how long it will take me to write the next chapter, probably not very long, but I'll try to make it longer if I can. I realize that most of this is dialogue. Hah. Oh well. Sorry if it's boring, I try. I'll try to do better.

Reviews, please? If you review I'll love you! P Contructive critism is always welcome. Notice the word contructive. Hah.

Well, on with the story!

Chapter Two: Consulting Doctor Riku

It was the next day. Sora didn't sleep the night before; he couldn't. The only thing on his mind was Kairi and how horrible he felt. He thought keeping his little secret from her would help. Well, obviously it hadn't. It had just made it worse.

Sora was desperate. What was he to do now? He was sure if he tried to talk to Kairi she wouldn't listen. Sometimes it was best to let her calm down for a while, think things out, and then talk. Usually Kairi was an extremely sweet, funny, sensitive girl; but when she was angry or upset she could be deadly.

Sora sighed. He needed help. He walked around the island aimlessly, looking for his friend. No, not Kairi. Riku. When he finally spotted him leaning against a tree he ran up to him. Riku gave him a light smile, well, actually it was more like a smirk, when he spotted him. "Hey, Sora."

"Hey, Riku." There was silence for a while before Sora obviously couldn't take it anymore. "Riku, I need help! See, there's something I've been wanting to tell Kairi since, well, forever and now when I finally think I should tell her I can't tell her! It's so messed up and now she's all mad at me and last night she yelled and ran home and now I feel so bad for it and I don't know what to do! Riku, help me!" He said quickly and then took a deep breath. Riku laughed. He didn't say anything for a while. Sora sighed. "Well?"

"Well, I caught about two seconds of that. Slow down and repeat yourself and maybe I can help," he said, smirking. Sora sighed in frustration but nonetheless repeated himself slower than before. When he was done he looked at Riku expectantly. "Well, I think there's only one thing you can do right now, Sora."

"And that would be…?"

"Well, tell her. Obviously she wants to know. Not telling her will only make her angrier."

"But, it's not that easy, you know!" Riku smirked.

"Well, if it were easy you would have told her already." Sora sighed. "Listen, Sora, you need to decide here. What's more important; keeping this secret or keeping Kairi as your best friend?" Sora's face took on a look of distress.

"But Riku!" he said, hiding his face in his hands. "What if the secret breaks us apart? Then I'll lose her as a friend anyways!"

"But if you don't tell her you'll use her as a friend, too. It's a risk you need to be willing to take," he grinned, "anyways, Kairi's pretty understanding. Don't you think she'll take it okay?"

"But not like this. I mean, well, Kairi told me, and I quote, 'Sora, don't ever change'. Riku, if I told her this it would change everything! And then…well, then…I don't know. But I'm sure she wouldn't just accept it." Riku sighed but his face still had a grin spread across it.

"Well, it's your decision, Sora." He smirked. "So, what is your secret?" When Sora looked away he chuckled a little. "Oh, c'mon! I'm one of your best friends, aren't I? Your secret's safe with me." Sora sighed, eyeing Riku.

"How can I be so sure I can trust you?" Riku took on a mock look of hurt.

"Sora! How dare you! I thought you trusted me!" he joked, grinning.

"Ugh. Fine, I'll tell you. But if you tell anyone, especially Kairi and I found out…you're dead, Riku." Riku nodded, still grinning, and Sora leaned in and whispered in his ear, cautiously looking around. Riku laughed.

"That's what I thought." Sora was surprised.

"How could you tell?" Riku laughed again.

"Sora, you might as well write it on a piece of paper and stick it on your back. But, yet…Kairi doesn't seem to pick it up." He shrugged, smirking. "Odd."

"Maybe you're just good at this stuff," Sora suggested, grinning. Riku shrugged, grinning.

"Maybe. Doubt it. It's more likely she's just clueless." Sora hit Riku playfully on the arm.

"Don't talk about her like that!" Riku laughed.

"Okay, okay, chill. I was just kidding. Wow, you really like her." Sora blushed, hitting Riku again and he just continued to laugh lightly.

"Well, I need to go," Riku said, grinning. "I need to give you time to think. Anyways, I have more people to consult with. After all, I do specialize in advice and 'this stuff', as you put it." He chuckled a little. "If you need any more help, call me. After all, Doctor Riku is always there to help, seeing as how generous as he is," he joked.

"Doctor Riku? Hah! That's so lame," Sora said, rolling his eyes.

"Well, hey," he said, laughing again, "don't be so mean, Sora. One day you might hurt someone's feelings. Oh, wait, too late. You already hurt Kairi's." He smirked, knowing just how to annoy Sora and just how far he could go. This was Sora's limit and he knew it. He was going to explode in 5..4..3...2...1.

"SHUT UP! GET OUT OF HERE, RIKU!"

'Yep, right on time.' Riku laughed.

"Okay, okay, I'm outta here." He looked back at Sora, but had a serious expression on his face. "Just try to listen what I said, okay? Not telling Kairi will eventually just make everything ten times worse." He smiled, a real smile this time. "See you, Sora. Good luck. If you need help I'm not too far." He chuckled. "After all, where do I have to go?" He walked away, leaving Sora to think. Sora sighed, sitting on the ground and thinking about his conversation with Riku.

'I can't figure out if 'Doctor Riku' helped me or made this even more confusing.' He sighed. 'Well, at least I told someone…now all I gotta do is tell Kairi and I'm set…'
