After school, Leon had driven home happy from all the comments that DiZ had showered him with. Once home, He made it known that no one were to bother him while he was in his room. Too bad Riku decided to shout to the whole world that Sora was in the hospital. Then Tifa came in and told him. Leon at first panicked, and then happily thanked the gods. He had to avoid homework as it was.

Making his way to the hospital in his old, sacred Chevrolet, Leon thought of all the dreadful things that could happen to him while he was at the hospital, and then all the dreadful things that would happen to Cloud that might need his attention. It was amazing what a little chocolate could do to his mind.

Upon entering the hospital, he saw his younger brother and Cloud talking in hushed tones in the lobby.

"Yo," he greeted when he saw them. Riku looked up and smiled from his position.

"So you made it?" he asked. Leon nodded.

"It was kind of scary the way you went through the house and yelled that Sora was here, then Tifa had to come and tell me, even though we live in the same house which you yelled through. And finally Yuffie and Aerith both stopped me upon my exit and warned me that you were on your way here." Leon sighed once he finished explaining his ride to the hospital.

"Sorry," Riku mumbled.

"So, what happened to Sora?" Leon asked.

"He was trying to run from a few girls that were out to kill him when he came upon a small child playing in the street. He was very close to getting hit by the oncoming car when Sora jumped out and save him."

"And then he died and the guide to the underworld told him that the child would have been okay because his ball would have deflected the hit," Leon finished.

"What?" Cloud asked, confused.

"Never mind," Leon said as he saw Riku snicker at the joke.

"Was it supposed to be funny?" Cloud asked.

"It's a fanboy thing," Riku explained.

" 'Fan-boy'?" Cloud sounded out the word as if it were a different language.

"Just pretend you never heard this whole conversation and you'll live a happy life," Leon said as he sighed again. "So is he going to live?" Leon asked. Both Riku and Cloud nodded.

"He just threw himself in front of a car, nothing major," Cloud said helpfully. Leon and Riku stared at him.

"You mean to tell us that he had done something worse?" Riku asked with a worried look on his face. Cloud shrugged.

"Something like that," he said. Leon rolled his eyes and promised to pray for the poor soul.

"So can we see him?" the brunette asked. Cloud shook his head.

"We haven't been told yet, so we don't know."

"Then how do you know that he's alive?" Leon asked questioningly.

"I've known Sora for a long time, believe it or not, we live together. I know him well enough to know that what he faced was nothing compared to a near death experience." Leon rolled his eyes again.

"Such a great brother you have, Sora," he muttered. Riku also rolled his eyes and then elbowed him when he saw the doctor walking towards them.

"Ah, I'm guessing friends of Sora Aramano?" the doctor asked. The three nodded. "Okay, well good news is that, Sora's gonna live, the bad news is, he has exactly twelve broken bones in his body, and he slightly fractured his arm, he's going to be in a cast for a while." Cloud nodded looking only mildly surprised.

"So can we see him?" he asked. The doctor nodded. They followed him until they reached a room with a single bed in it. On the bed was a pale Sora-mummy.

"Sora!" Riku cried out as he went to sit next to the said boy. "Are you alive?"

"No, Riku, I'm dead. Hard to tell you, but yeah, I died." Riku smiled as he attempted to try and hug the mummified boy, but instead went for a kiss instead. Leon twitched as he watched the event.

"Did I miss something?" he asked the blonde angel.

"If you did," he said. "Then so did I." The quickly stepped out of the room to leave the two to there own troubles and fantasies.

"So," Leon said, breaking the silence. "Awkward moment."

"Yep."

"How's life been threatening—I mean treating ya?" Leon asked. Cloud looked at the other boy skeptically.

"Who ever asks that anymore?" he asked. Leon rolled his eyes.

"Watch me attempt to try and start a conversation." Cloud chuckled at the comment, and then quickly hid his smile and blush by coughing.

"I've, uh, got to go, um, prepare dinner at home," he said before flying down the hallway, cheeks red.

"Oka-ay," he said as he poked his head into Sora's hospital room again. "You guys gonna stop soon?" he asked. The two boys on the bed blushed before untangling themselves from each other. "Thank you."

"Uh, h-hey, Leon," Sora stuttered out.

"And when did this," he motioned with his hands at the two. "Start?"

"L-last night." It was Riku's turn to start to stutter.

"Did it now?" Leon asked. He then grinned like a wild maniac. "And I thought it was me you guys you were trying to help." The three laughed. "So, do either of you guys know what stage of the plan we're in?" he asked. Sora shook his head but Tifa nodded. Wait, Tifa?

"Where'd you come from?" Sora and Riku asked simultaneously. Tifa hid a smile and shrugged.

"My mom, is what I've been hearing, but I disagree with the men in white." The three laughed at her joke. "We are in stage two and will be until the night of the prom." Leon sighed.

"So, am I free for the rest of the week?" he asked. Tifa nodded.

"But you really only have three more days, more like two, actually." And true to her word, Leon realized that it was indeed Wednesday.

"Damn," he muttered under his breath. "Where did Monday and Tuesday go off to?" he asked himself.

"Well, Lord Arthur had defeated both them and also Wednesday through Friday," Sora explained.

"What?" Leon asked. Sora shook his head.

"Never mind, it's a book nerd thing."

"Oka-ay."

"So, still two days, that allows me to manipulate Cloud's schedule to my liking," Tifa muttered. Soon, she was on the phone with Aerith talking up a storm about the color blue and shrimp.

((I ran out of ideas here, so I stopped writing that scene /the Soriku fluff!!!/ and wrote the bottom.))

"So, Squall, had second thoughts on killing yourself after that?" a long silver haired boy asked.

"It's Leon," the said boy muttered. The elder just ignored him and laughed. "And yes, I don't like to attempt suicide. It's just for my reputation."

"You're emo for your rep?" Sephiroth asked. Leon rolled his eyes.

"No, but then again, someone like you wouldn't understand. Your status is still not high enough to under stand, so don't try."

"All hail the Great and Almighty Squall!" the silver haired boy yelled. The room erupted with laughter. "Oh, milord, what may I do for you, milord? Tea? Is that what you would like? Or maybe—." He was cut off by a comment by Leon.

"Drama queen."

"Hey," Sephiroth said as he stood up. "Hey, I take that name with pride and joy, unlike you, the Emo Kid of the Century!" The class again erupted into laughter. "The people!" He pretended to wipe away a tear. "They love me!" Leon rolled his eyes.

"But oh, the irony!" he yelled. Here it came, the Seph and Squall drama act. He stood up and covered his eyes with the back of his hand. "I'm only condemned to live the worst possible life, even the Almighty Me has no chance standing up against love!" the class broke out in cheers.

"But, milord!" Sephiroth yelled. "Who may have you fallen in love with that has condemned our All Powerful Squall?"

"But woe, it is the princess from the neighboring kingdom, the heaven's own child, that I have fallen in love with." Sephiroth dramatically gasped.

"No! She is the worst, she'll rip out your heart once she knows that you have fallen for her!" Leon gasped dramatically.

"But, but, I have already poured my love out in front of her!" he exclaimed.

"Oh my!" Sephiroth said. "What did she do?"

"She rejected me, telling me that she could never love some one like me!" Leon faked a sob.

"Oh, but my dear Squall, you are the best this world has to give!" Sephiroth made it a show to hug the brunette. "If it wasn't for my pesky wife now, I would have swept you off your feet!"

"Sephiroth! Leon!" came the yell from the teacher. The class quickly settled down, a few still laughing from the act that was shown.

"Hey, Seph," Leon whispered to the silver haired boy. "I bet anything that Kadaj will hate you after what he heard." The turned around and faced a boy with short silver hair. He stuck his tongue out at the two. People laughed as they saw the affection of love pass between the silver haired boys.

"Oh, pooh!" Sephiroth muttered. "He still loves me."

Leon walked into the house, back from his day at school. His little sister, Yuffie, followed close behind. As the door closed, Riku ran down the stairs from his room where he had been sick that day.

"Have you heard from Sora or Cloud?" he asked. The brunette shook his head.

"Why, still worried about him?" Leon asked. Riku nodded.

"Well," came Aerith's voice. "I saw Cloud today and he told me about Sora." Riku turned to face to the small brunette and smiled. "He says that he's still in the hospital, but will get out in a week or two."

"Okay," Riku said with a sigh. But then his face fell. Then lifted again. "I guess I won't be able to help you at the prom, Leon," he said. "I'll be at the hospital with my boyfriend."

Leon twitched at the use of the word and it's meaning.

"No way!" came Tifa's voice. "No!" she said to Riku, pointing a finger. "You have to go!" Riku shook his head.

"The things I do for love," he replied. The group, exclude Tifa, laughed.

"Oh, hey Aerith!" Cloud said excitedly as he picked up the phone. "Umm, yeah, I do like shrimp, why?" he then nodded. "Okay! Yeah, I tried it on and it fits. I like your sense of fashion, the colors to match with my hair. So when shall I pick you up? Six it is, then." He closed the phone and smiled to himself in the mirror. It was going to be the perfect prom ever and nothing was going to change that, he knew that for a fact.

"Cloud!" Roxas yelled from outside his door. "Dinner's ready." It was only a day away, and he was positively excited and nervous. But his heart thumped even faster when he thought about Leon and his date. Aerith had said she was from another school and that she was gorgeous.

Wait. Was he jealous of her or Leon?

A/N: I'm estimating about, say, two or three more chapters. Sorry for all the mistakes, really. And thank you for my ((koff four koff)) reviewers. I have my mom watching over my back constantly. She thinks that this is some extra credit for my Lit class that I am on the verge of failing. Gladly, she is foreign to this country and doesn't know at all about the character names and all.

Disc: I don't own kh, ffVII, YuYuHakusho, or the keys to the kingdom series.

I'm going to start a new story soon. It will be a zemyx called Twilight Drift. And yes, it does have to do with drifting. I hope you'll read it once I start it.
