Chapter Seven: Squall Leonhart

Riku led Sora next door, "I guess I should have warned you about those two." He said, glancing at the young brown headed boy.

Sora blinked, "Why do you say that?"

Riku chuckled, "They have no shame..." He paused, "Well, Cloud does...but, not Leon."

Sora raised an eyebrow, "What is that suppose to mean?" He asked, glancing at Riku.

Riku blinked, looking as though he were choosing his words carefully, with a sigh he threw caution to the wind, "You'll see." He said, knocking on the door.

There was a moments pause...just a moment.

Sora continued to gaze at Riku out of the corner of his eye, 'He really is attractive...' Sora's eyes widened as he quickly looked away, 'No...no...I have Kairi...she's really attractive!'

Just at that precise moment the door flew open, a very naked, very mean looking individual standing behind it, not really caring that he was naked and scaring the living hell out of Sora.

"What." Was the only greeting they got from the brunet teenager.

Riku rubbed his forehead, "Just wanted to introduce Sora to you." He said, nodding to the smaller brunet.

Steel gray eyes turned to Sora as an eyebrow arched in question, "Hi." He said simply before turning back to Riku, "I was kind of busy, is that all?"

Riku nodded, grinning widely, "Pretty much! You can get back to fucking Cloud now!" He said waving as the door was slammed in his face, "See? And, you though I was bad."

Sora snorted, "I wouldn't be surprised if you answered your door naked." He mumbled, turning to walk back into his dorm.

Riku turned to look at him, a thin silver eyebrow arched in amusement. Without so much as saying a word, he grabbed the boy and shoved him against the nearest wall. His lips soon followed, clashing with the other's.

Only one conscience thought passed through Sora's mind...

...Not again!

...Then all thought was swept from his mind as he fell into the kiss.

It didn't take much to get Sora to open his mouth to his searching tongue, just a simple swipe against his plump lips and the boy's mouth fell open.

Hell, Sora was even kissing back this time. Just as exuberantly as Riku was.

Neither boy noticed the short brown haired, green eyed girl smirking at them with her arms crossed. "Ahem." She coughed, getting their attention.

Sora harshly pushed Riku off of him, "Selphie!" He squeaked, "What are you doing here?"

The girl smiled devilish, looking from one boy to the other, "Just helping Aerith with dorm checks." She said before raising an eyebrow, "What are you doing?"

Riku's eyes narrowed, 'I would be doing him right now...' He thought, "Nothing, Selphie, go away." He said, glaring at the girl.

The girl shook her head, "I don't think it's safe to leave poor Sora alone with you." She said, grinning widely, "You might steal his virginity."

Riku twitched before walking back into their dorm, slamming the door behind him.

Selphie smiled brightly, grabbing Sora's arm, "I needed to talk to you anyway about Riku." She said, her voice soft, "Come on."

--- --- ---

He did not just hear Riku and innocent in the same sentence, did he?

"Whoa, wait!" Sora said, holding up his hand, "Say that again."

Selphie blinked, "When Riku came here, he was almost as innocent as you."

Sora gave her a disbelieving look.

"Hey! I said almost!" Selphie pouted, crossing her arms, "Either ways. There's a story to why he is the way he is."

Sora sat down on the couch, "Well?"

Selphie rolled her eyes, "First things first." She said holding up her hand.

Sora blinked, "What?"

"You like him."

Sora's eyes widened as he shook his head frantically, "No way!" He said, holding up his hands in defense, "I can't stand him."

Selphie snorted, "Psh, I've seen it a dozen times." She said waving her hand dismissively, "The quicker you admit it, the quicker you can do something about it."

Sora frowned. He didn't like Riku that way...did he? His mind drifted off.

He remembered the first time they met...how the elder boy had made him blush so easily when his own girlfriend couldn't even do it anymore.

Riku smiled slightly, "You have a nice laugh." He mentioned, titling his head to the side as he surveyed Sora.

Sora blushed softly, "Uh, thanks...I think." He said, turning away from Riku.

Riku smirked, "Your bedroom is right over there." He said pointing to said room.

Sora nodded quickly, "T-thanks." He said.

And, when he kissed him...

Sora grinned widely, his eyes slipping closed.

Okay, maybe he did have the smallest crush on Riku.

"See!" Selphie cried, "You like him! Admit it!"

Sora snapped out of his trance, "Yeah...okay, maybe I do." He said, frowning, "But, only a little!"

Selphie grinned widely, "But, there's nothing I can do about it!" Sora said, shaking his head, "I have someone already and I don't want to end up like Roxas!"

Selphie nodded in understanding, "What she won't know won't hurt her." She pointed out, smiling brightly, "No one said you had to date him, but what's the harm in just sleeping with him?"

Sora's eyes widened, "No! I can't do that! Not to Kairi and not to myself." He said, sighing, "Either ways, tell me about Riku."

Selphie pouted, "Okay, fine!" She said, crossing her arms, "When Riku first got here last year, he wasn't really interested in anybody."

Sora raised an eyebrow, "Seriously?"

Selphie nodded, "Yeah. But, that was before he met Squall...well, Leon now." She said, "You see, before Squall met Cloud, he was a little man whore." She giggled lightly at that, "And well, Riku became one of his victims."

Sora shook his head, "That still doesn't explain why Riku acts the way he does." He pointed out, frowning lightly.

Selphie rolled her eyes, "Well, I'm not finished yet, Mister!" She said, wagging her finger at him, "He actually loved Squall and he took the breakup hard, well you would too if you walked in and found the person you loved sleeping with someone else, namely Cloud." She paused, "But, if it was me, I'd ask to join in 'cause Cloud's just yummy!"

Sora blinked, "I get it..." He said softly, leaning back into the couch.

Riku was afraid to fall in love again. When he felt like he was growing too attached to the person, he'd do anything and everything to end the relationship, making sure the other hated him.

So...maybe he had loved Roxas...and all the others. He just didn't want to expose himself to the pain he had felt when he had let himself fall in love.

"That and every school needs a heartbreaker."

Sora blinked, looking up, "Hey, Aerith!" He said grinning.

She waved, "And, there Riku was, ready made." She said as she sat down, cupping her cheek, "The question is, Sora, what are you going to do about it?"

Sora blinked, looking away. Did he really like that boy enough to destroy his relationship with Kairi?

He laughed softly, "I need to call my girlfriend..." He said standing up, a light grin on his face.

--- --- ---

Kairi was sitting in front of her vanity, brushing her shoulder length hair before bed. She was humming softly, a small frown on her face.

It had been a few weeks since Sora had left for his new school, in those few weeks he hadn't called once.

She tried not to worry, after all, Sora wasn't gay and he was attending an all boys school, so what girl could get him there?

But...what if she was wrong?

What if her Sora did like boys...? Maybe he had found one that liked him back.

She slammed her brush on the table, her eyes cloudy.

God damnit! She was his girlfriend! Not chopped liver, she wouldn't be ignored so easily!

But...damn...she didn't have his number or anything...

She sighed, picking back up her brush.

"Kairi! Phone!"

The girl dived over her bed for her phone, "Thanks mom!" She replied before pressing the 'speak' button on the phone, "Hello?"

"Hey, Kairi. It's Sora."

The girl grinned widely. Damn straight she wouldn't be ignored, "Why haven't you called!" She demanded.

"I've been really really busy. I'm taking all honors classes this term and that doesn't leave much time for me to do much of anything else, much less call anyone."

"Oh..." She replied softly, flipping over to her back.

"There's something I wanted to talk to you about, Kai."

The girl blinked, her body freezing, "Yeah?"

"It's not fair, Kairi. That I'm so far away. We can't see each other and I can't call much."

"Go on." Her voice was low.

"I think we should see other people until I come home for the summer. It'd be best for us."

Tears welled up in her eyes, "Why?" She asked, her voice trembling.

"I'm sure you're not happy there. Find someone who can make you happy."

"What if I fall in love and forget about you?" She asked, her voice cold.

"Then we weren't meant to be."

"Whatever!" She snapped, hanging up on him.

She sat on her bed, tears running down her face as she clutched the hem of her night shirt.

"Damnit, damnit, damnit!" She cried.

--- --- ---

Sora sighed heavily, staring at the phone before he hung it back up, "Well, that went well."

Selphie giggled, "Do we have another playboy in training, here, Sora?" She asked teasingly.

Sora grinned, "Not by a long shot!"

Aerith smiled, "More like a match maker!"

Sora blushed slightly, "I suppose so." He said, grinning at the two girl, "I got to go. I'll talk to Roxas tomorrow about the whole plan, ok? It's too late to bug him now."

Sora walked to the door, turning around, waving at the two girls, "G'night!" He said brightly.
