Chapter 5 of Fayth
"Kairi….." A hand gently touches her back. Another, same size, just as warm, embraces her arm, softly, but enough to pull her slim body back. She looks up, to see Riku, sitting on the ground behind her. "Hey, whoa, stay down til we know your okay…" He softly says. Kairi realized soon that the entire class was crowding around her. Karu and Selphie stood before her. "Huh…?" She breathes.
Selphie cries out in relief. "OH KAIRI!!" she shrieks, jumping in front of Kairi on the floor of the auditorium. "I thought you were a goner!! There you were, arranging for MY funeral!! I thought it was gonna change to the other way around! OOOohhh!! I was so scared!!!" She gives a huge sigh of relief. Then, she threw her body at Kairi, and holds her in a tight hug.
"Oh! Karu was worried too!! But he was brave! He went to get Riku from the chem Lab! He ran fast!" she giggles, blushing.
Kairi, who was still a little dazed, smiled at Karu. He shrugs. She then turned to Riku. The look on his face seems serious. "Sorry……" Kairi whispers, remembering the look on his face as she saw him die… It made her frown…
Riku shakes his head. He was about to say something, but the auditorium door flew open again, and in came that little nurse woman again, Mrs Webber trailing after her. "My, my, my, my, oh my, Deary! Didn't you tell me you were better and could go to class?!" Kairi smiles. The door opens again, and in comes Humphre……
Kairi, a fast thinker, and dreading his next course of actions, collapses back onto the ground, falling into Riku's lap. "Hm?" He looks down suddenly to see her on his knees. "OH NO!" Shrieks the nurse, causing a reaction to fly from Selphie. Kairi's right eye opens. She gives Riku a look, letting him know not to blow her cover. Selphie begins to runs in circles. "Oh my gosh! Oh Gosh! Ahh!!! She's dead!!!!" She screams. Karu grabs her arms though, and she grows silent, she face looks googly, and she leans into his chest, relaxing. He just grins. This makes Kairi smile…The smile died, however, when Humphre soon approached and the auditorium grew quiet….
