Alright! So here's the next chapter. I know most of you were probably expecting it like this morning or earlier today...Sorry! I had to finish things up and work on my midterm essay and such before I could update. But! It's here! And it's still Friday so yeah! I'd also like to thank my reviewers for supporting me and leaving me reviews that make me really excited to write and update! I hope you like this next chapter!
As soon as Sayomi was done cleaning the house, she went up to Riku's room to see what he was doing.
"I'm done." Sayomi stated.
"Good timing." Riku replied while still keeping an eye on his game.
"Why? What do you want me to do now, oh master of mine." Sayomi joked.
"Well, let me inspect how you did on the cleaning first." Riku said as he shut off his PS2 and led her out the room and down the stairs.
"Is this what you call clean? Look at the windows, you can't even see out of them!" Riku complained, he was obviously trying to get Sayomi mad and unleash that cute little temper of hers. He had always liked to do that to people. Especially to Sayomi and Sora.
"Well first, they're supposed to be your chores! And second, all I had was a freaking duster! I don't know where all your other 'cleaning materials' are!"
"Ugh, fine here." Riku said as he shoved a cloth and some windex towards her. "Get done before my mom comes home."
"Rikuuu! I can't get done within that time! She gets home in like 10 minutes!" Sayomi complained.
"Fine, then I guess I'll have to help."
"Have to?! Of course you have to! They're your chores!"
"Ok, ok. Jesus Christ Sayo! Calm down."
Riku grabbed another cloth and started helping Sayomi clean the big glass doors that led out to the porch.
"This is sooo boring!"
"Then do you want to race to see who can clean the windows the fastest?" Riku suggested.
"Sora's right, you do always have to do something that involves competition."
"So?"
"Nevermind. Sure why not."
"Alright, ready, set , GO!" Sayomi and Riku took off and ran as fast as they could, trying to clean the windows. Up til now, they had been tied, and each had their last window to clean. Thought this one was very tall. Sayomi got in the lead, until she had to clean the top of it. While she was figuring out how to reach it, Riku had already finished.
"Ha! I win!" Riku exclaimed excitedly.
"Riku...I can't reach this part." Sayomi explained pointing to the top part of the window.
"Well then, I guess I'll have to help you with that." Riku walked over to where Sayomi was standing and went up very close to her, making her blush slightly. Then, he pinned her to the window by reaching above her and putting his body up against hers as he cleaned the top of the window. By this point, Sayomi's face was a bright shade of red. Riku saw this and smirked.
"What?" Riku asked innocently, but still smirking a bit.
"n-nothing. hehe, nothing at all." The two heard the garage door open and quickly made a dash for the stairs, so Riku's mom didn't know that they had procrastinated and just had finished cleaning up the house. Riku was standing on the steps waiting for Sayomi to catch up. But...there was one problem. Sayomi, being the clumsy self she usually is, tripped on the bottem step falling, and also pulling Riku down with her. Which resulted in the current position: Riku lay on his back on the stairs, while Sayomi was sprawled out on top of him, groaning in pain. Then, the two heard footsteps, and lifted their heads to see Riku's mom grinning at them.
"Oh, did I interupt something?" She asked.
"..Uh, uh n-no! Nothing. ehehe, just um..." Sayomi tried to explain frantically.
"We uh, were just playing a game and Sayo fell and pulled me down too and...yeah." Riku stated.
"Uh-huh..."
"Ok then, have fun you two!" Riku's mom excalimed.
"Oh wait, and mom? Sayomi's gonna stay at our house for a week, cause her mom's on business somewhere." Riku explained.
"Oh, ok! It's always nice to have Sayomi over at our house, isn't it Riku?"
"Yeah, I guess it is." Sayomi got off of Riku and headed upstairs to his room, while Riku followed.
"Awkward." Sayomi laughed as she plopped down on Riku's beanbag.
"Aw come on Sayo. You know you liked it. No one can resist me." Riku said mockingly.
"Oh yes, I really enjoyed it." Sayo answered sarcastically, although in reality, she really did. But she wouldn't ever admit that. At least, not yet.
"Oh, I'll make you enjoy it." Riku said as he started tickling Sayomi mercilessly.
"A-ah! Ri-ahaha-ku! ahaha st-hahaha-stop-hahahaha-it!" Sayomi managed to get out.
"No, admit you liked it. Admit it!" Riku said while continuing to tickle her and grin like crazy.
"O-haha-ok ahahaha I haha, like ahaha it."
"Alright. I'll repeat it. No one can resist me." Riku said while Sayomi just rolled her eyes.
"Yes master." She said in a mocking tone. And then soon blushed for about the 3rd time this day because of yet another awkward position she had gotten herself into. Riku was on top of her, and her shirt was kind of coming off because of her struggle. "Hey um...as much as I love this position...heh, could you get off?" Sayomi asked timidly.
"O-oh yeah. Sorry."
As soon as Sayomi was done straightening up her clothes, Riku's mom called them done for dinner. When they were finished, the two pondered what to do next.
"So, have any more things you want me to do?" Sayomi asked.
"Nah. You get a break." Riku answered.
"Ok then, what should we do?"
"Hmm. Wanna watch a movie?" Riku suggested.
"Ok! Let's go to the video rental store!" Sayomi got excited and grabbed her coat and Riku. They rushed out the door, leaving Riku's mom dumbfounded.
"Woah, woah. Wait Sayomi. I have to go get my keys." Riku rushed into the house, grabbed his keys, told his mom where they were going, and rushed right back out. Only to find Sayomi wasn't there.
"Hey, Sayomi? Sayo?! Where are you?!" Riku called out Riku decided to turn on his car lights so he could look better. So he opened the door and went inside.
"Boo!"
"AAAAAAAHHH!!!!!!! Shit Sayo!" Sayomi emerged from the back seat laughing histerically. "God dammit Sayo! How did you even get in my car anyways?"
"I have an extra set of your keys remember? baka, you gave them to me last year when you got your car because you wanted me to save your extra keys." Sayomi explained.
"Oh yeah...Sayomi I'm gonna kill you!" Sayomi kept laughing as they drove to the video store.
When they walked in, they could smell the faint smell of buttery popcorn, packaged candy, and geeky gemmu otakus who came to check out the latest games to rent. As they browsed the aisles of videos, they heard someone following them.
"Welcome to Hollywood Video, may I help you with selecting a film?" Someone asked in a nasaly voice.
"Uh no, we're--Selphie?" Riku recognized the green-eyed girl as he turned around.
"Hey guys! I just got a job here!"
"So um...what's up with this 'film selection' shpeal?" Sayomi asked while giggling.
"Oh, corporate wants every employee to say that. Some kind of 'friendliness and helpfulness' thing they're working on." Selphie explained.
"I see." Riku answered.
"So what are you two doing here? And did you like switch boyfriends and girlfriends or something? Cause Riku, aren't you going out with Kairi, and Sayo aren't you going out with Sora?"
"What? No. Can't friends that knew each other since they were born come here?" Riku asked.
"Well, yeah. But you two looked all romantic standing real close to eachother. And you do realize you're in the 'romantic comedy' section, don't you?" Riku and Sayomi surveyed their surroundings, realizing indeed it was.
"AAAAAHHHH!!!!!!! gag, romantic comedies! Too, wheeze, mushy, cough." Sayomi joked as she pretended she was choking.
"Oh no! Come on Sayo, you can make it! Let's hurry up and retreat to the action movies!" Riku joked along. The two ran off as Selphie just stood there and laughed.
"Few, we made it." Sayomi stated as she giggled.
"I know. So, which movie should we watch?"
"I don't know..."
"Hey, I know!" Riku ran to the horror movie section and pulled out a the ring 2.
"No! Riku, you know I hate scary movies!" Sayomi complained.
"Hey, this is payback for the car incident."
"But that was like 2 minutes of terror, not 2 hours."
"Sayomi, who's the master here?"
"Ugh, not this again. You are."
"Uh-huh. So I get to decide."
"Fine..." Sayomi sighed in defeat. After they rented the movie, which they got for free from Selphie, they headed home to watch it.
Sayomi and Riku were currently situated in Riku's room, leaning against the side of his bed with 2 big blankets across the floor where they sat. They also were sharing a blanket on them. Within 5 minutes of the movie, Sayomi had jumped into Riku's strong, protective arms. Which she stayed in. Sayomi started feeling sleepy and dozed off with her head leaning against Riku's shoulder. When Sayomi woke up after about 15 minutes, she saw that the movie was almost over. But she had no intention of letting Riku know she was up, or getting up from this position. Sayomi wanted to stay like this forever.
She could feel Riku's warm breath, and feel his silky hair on her face. Then, he looked down at her, and she immediately closed her eyes.
"You look so cute when you're sleeping." Riku whispered quietly, thinking Sayomi was asleep. He sighed. "Sayo, I love you...There, I said it. I don't know why I just can't tell you that when you're awake." Sayomi gasped in her mind, but she didn't have time to think because the next thing she knew, Riku was kissing her. And she just knew, that this time, it was for real.
Woooo!!!! Riku makes his move! I love this chapter! Please review! They make me excited to write, and make me update faster!
