By the end of the movie Sora was holding Riku so tight, that Riku almost lost all feeling in his legs. Riku didn't care however. He just kept rubbing Sora's back. Sora was so scared he was almost in tears. He probably would have been, if it had not been for Riku constantly calming him down. Sora didn't know why but Riku's smell was also keeping his calm. This sent belonged only to Riku; every time Sora could breathe it in it calmed him.

Just as the credits started to roll, Riku looked at the clock. It was almost midnight, and Sora looked tired. "Hey Sora," Riku said looking at Sora. "Why don't we call it a night? You look tired." Sora let out a big yawn in response to his question. Riku laughed. "OK, OK I get the point lets go to bed."

Sora got an idea and decided to voice it. "Riku," Sora said in a shy type voice.

"What is it," Riku asked wondering what Sora could possibly want.

"Well if you want," Sora blushed just thinking about what he wanted to ask.

"Yes?"

"Well I was thinking that maybe," Sora paused thinking of what words to say. "Maybe we could sleep together in my mom's room." Sora looked down at his feet as he said the last part, his face bright red.

When Riku looked at Sora's stance he laughed inwardly. "Sure why not, it'll be better than sleeping on the floor or the couch."

Sora looked up, 'Riku's not mad! Thank God I suggested it!' Sora thought to himself, as he did a happy dance in his mind. "Alright I'm going to get changed; I'll meet you in there Riku." Sora walked upstairs again to his room. He walked in and closed the door behind him. Making sure the door was closed tight he walked over to his closet. "Now, I wonder what I should wear to bed," Sora wondered aloud. "I know I'll were this!" He said pulling out a pair of pants that had cowboys on them.

Sora striped off all his clothes not worrying about were they landed. Lately he had been wearing nothing to bed. So he had to wear something. He pulled up the pants, and walked to the door to open it. After walking down the hall Sora got to his mothers room. The door was closed so he knocked. "Hey Riku can I come in," Sora asked innocently.

"Sure its fine," Riku said. Sora turned the door knob to open the door, and slowly pushed it open. The site of Riku sitting on the edge of the bed in his boxers met Sora's eyes first. Sora blushed, but tried to hide it. Riku laughed slightly at Sora's blush. "What," Riku said. "What this is what I wear when there are too many people around."

"No its fine you just surprised me that's all," Sora said liking just how much skin he could see. "Let's watch a non scary movie as we go to sleep Riku."

Riku wasn't apposed to the idea and shook his head in agreement. Sora walked over to DVD player and looked to see what was in it so he could get the case and put it away. After the disc holding tray came out Sora picked up the DVD and dropped it immediately to the ground in shock. Riku looked over to him and gave him a puzzling look, "what's the matter Sora?"

Sora bent down to pick up the DVD again and handed it to Riku. Riku took the DVD and burst out laughing. "Man Sora your mom's got a wild side." Riku said handing the DVD back to Sora. It was porn, but not just any porn. It was gay porn. The picture on the disc was that of two men having sex.

"I didn't know my mom watched this stuff." Sora said not really wanting to believe it.

"Well I would get over that quick because she obviously does. Hey," Riku thought after that, "what do you say we take a look at it just for fun?" He watched Sora's face blush again, as he walked over to find something better to watch.

"We could…" Sora said hoping that his sarcastic tone caught Riku's attention. "Or, we could watch this," he said as he picked the closest movie on the movie rack.

Riku laughed. "You would rather watch a Care bear movie that is for 5 year-olds," he said raising an eyebrow. He watched as Sora turned the movie around and sighed.

Sora looked at the movie 'why the hell did I pick this up,' he wondered. He put the movie back were he got it and sat on the bed. "OK Riku, you pick what we watch." Sora sighed in defeat. Riku grinned widely.

"OK since you don't wanna watch the porn, let's watch this," he said walking over to were the movies were. Taking a look at what was there he picked up the first horror movie he found. It wasn't that he loved horror movies but he loved the way that it made Sora react. Riku picked it up and smiled, tossing the movie to Sora, "here you go."

Sora looked at the movie, "Dawn of the Dead, Riku!" Sora yelled.

"Hey you said that I could pick whatever I wanted," Riku said with a teasing tone in his voice.

"Fine," Sora said giving up. He got up and put the DVD in the player. After hitting play, he walked over to bed and, laying down next to Riku; got himself in a position in witch he could cling easily if he needed.

The movie started playing and six seconds later Sora was in hiding his face in Riku's chest holding him tight. The first five second picture of a zombie appeared. After about 15 minutes, Sora was sound asleep. Riku took note of this when he felt Sora's grip loosen around him. Grabbing the remote and turning off the TV Riku adjusted himself in bed. He put one arm around Sora, wishing that he could stay like this forever. It wasn't long, however, till he was claimed by sleep himself.

Sora was walking, he wasn't sure were, but it was a dimly lit road. As he walked he noticed that he was being followed by someone or something. Or at least he felt like he was anyway. He turned around to look, but saw nothing. He decided to keep walking and not think about it. Suddenly Sora felt something holding him back. He tried to get away, but he couldn't. Afraid of what it could be he turned his head slowly. As he turned his eyes were closed, but opened one eye in hopes that he wouldn't see anything.

As he slowly opened the one eye Sora screamed, "it's…it's a vam…va… vampire!" Sora tried his hardest to get away. He thrashed around kicking and screaming.

"ra…"

"HELP ME!" Sora screamed.

"Sora…"

Sora knew that voice. "Riku! Were are you?" Sora was starting to cry. He was scared to death, and he didn't know what to do.

"Sora!"

With this last call Sora quickly opened his eyes. He was still crying. "Riku!" Sora sobbed into his chest. "Riku there was this vampire and he was going to kill me!"

"ssshhh, it's OK Sora. I'm here, and it's gone." Riku said trying to comfort the smaller boy. Sora squeezed Riku tight. He didn't want to let him go.

Riku didn't know what else to do for him. He felt sorry now that he made Sora watch all the horror movies. He knew that he got scared, but he didn't know that he had such bad nightmares from them. Not quite thinking straight, Riku pulled Sora closer and kissed his head.

Sora was still scared but feeling Riku do this made him calm down a little bit. "Riku, I'm scared," Sora said quietly.

Riku didn't know what to do. He picked up Sora bridal style off the bed. Walking over to the door, he shifted Sora around in his arm so that he could open the door. Carefully walking down the stairs, Riku held Sora tight. When he got to the living room at the bottom of the stairs, he placed Sora on the couch, reluctantly letting go. Sora didn't want Riku to leave and held on tighter. "Sora you need to calm down a little. I'm going to get you something to drink, I'll be right back," Riku said. He wanted nothing more than to stay and comfort the smaller boy, but he needed to calm down. Sora finally let go, and Riku smiled a little. He hugged Sora again and kissed the side of his neck. "I'll be right back don't worry," Riku smiled, letting go to walk into the kitchen.

Sora had almost stopped crying by this point. He was so shocked that Riku had carried him like that, and even more so at the chaste kiss on his neck. He reached his hand up to the spot were Riku's lips had touched his skin and blushed. "He, he, he kissed me!" Sora said so that only he could hear.

Riku took a glass from the cabinet and poured some milk into it about half way. He walked over to the microwave so that he could take the chill off the milk. He was worried about Sora. He always thought of Sora as more than just a friend. He could still remember the time that he first realized that he was in love with him.

Flash back

It was the last day of their sophomore year of high school. Riku and Sora were always well known in school. They weren't popular but they were well known. Sora would always pull Riku around to show him stuff, or to get him to talk to people. Sora may not have realized it but he was, in a way, more popular than Riku. He was actually the most sought out person in school. Everyone wanted to go out with him.

Riku overheard some of the people talking with intentions of dating Sora.

"Hey Gina, I think I'm going to ask Sora out today."

Gina looked at her, "You sure your not going to chicken out this time Sondra."

"I won't as long as that other guy isn't with him, Riku's cute and all but Sora is just so innocent looking…"

Riku walked away, it wasn't the end of the conversation but it was enough for him. Sondra was a slut, and just about everyone in school knew it. But Sora was too naive to notice. If she actually got to talk to him, who knows what Sora would say. He always had a way of giving in if people wouldn't give up after the first no.

Riku wasn't sure why but after hearing that he felt like something was squeezing his heart. He decided to ignore it and find Sora. When he found Sora he decide to make excuses to stay with him the rest of the day. Sora didn't mind either. Riku was a good friend and he loved spending time with him.

That night, when Riku got home he wondered what it was that he was feeling earlier. Why did he care so much that Sora was going to be used by that bitch Sondra. Sure, Sora was his best friend, but why did he feel like his heart was being squeezed. Riku decided to sleep on it for the night. But that night his dreams answered all his questions.

dream (still flash back)

Riku was sitting on his couch watching something, and Sora had been over for dinner. Sora walked over and sat next to him. Without so much as a warning Sora leaned over and hugged him. Riku was surprised, Sora never did this without a reason, but he didn't complain, he just returned the hug. Before he knew what was going on Sora had moved his head from Riku's chest to look him in the eyes, as if he was searching for something. Apparently he found his answer and planted his lips on Riku's for a chaste kiss. Riku was shocked, his mouth opened a bit in the surprise and Sora took the opportunity to enter his tongue into Riku's mouth.

Riku didn't know what was going on, but he did know that Sora was in a VERRY seductive mood, and he like it for some reason. Riku let Sora explore his mouth for a while, every so often playfully moving his tongue to entice Sora a bit more. Not too long after this however the kiss was broken, both boys panting for air. Sora was the first to recover and started trailing kisses down his neck, to the collar of his shirt. Moving back up to the pulse point, Sora licked and bit playfully. Riku was just about in heaven at the attention, but his eye's widened even more as Sora's hands found their way to the bottom of his shirt. Sora slipped his hands underneath feeling Riku's bare skin; soon however, the shirt was up and over his head. Sora moved slowly down to Riku's nipples. When his tongue made contact with the hard nubs, Riku gasped calling Sora's name. Sora pushed the taller boy down on the couch, and continued to play with his nipples, always making sure that both were getting attention.

Sora then moved downward still farther. He dipped his tongue into Riku's navel, earning him another moan from Riku. As Sora did this again his hands moved the rim of Riku's pants, slowly unbuttoning them. With a grin on his face Sora pulled the pants down. Soon all Riku had left on was his boxers and he had a feeling they would soon be off as well.

He watched as Sora moved down to lick playfully at his swollen member through the fabric. Riku moaned, "Un, Sora," he said. Sora took the hint and bit the rim of the boxers playfully pulling them down, slowly. It was too slowly for Riku. He reached down and was going to aid Sora, when he woke with a start.

end dream

Riku looked around him panting from the effects of the dream. He saw that his door was open, and his mother was standing in the door way. "Honey," she said half smiling. "If you don't get out of bed now you're going to be late for school."

Riku grabbed his pillow and threw it in the general direction of the door, missing his mother by a mile. "There is no school mom," Riku groaned. "Yesterday was the last day of the year."

She looked kind of embarrassed about this. "Well," she said thinking, "get up anyway."

"Fine mom!" Riku moved in his bed, thinking about the dream he had just had. He remembered reading once that dreams were the unconscious desires of the heart. If that were true, that would explain a lot. "I love him, I always have, and I always will," Riku said softly.

end flash back

Riku grabbed the now warm milk out of the microwave smiling. He wanted that scene to be played out again, but not until he knew that Sora wanted him the same way. He had two week to find out with out any interruptions. He walked back out to the living room to find Sora curled up in the fetal position.

As Sora heard Riku's footsteps drawing closer, he moved to sit up, giving Riku room to sit down. Riku handed him the cup before he sat down saying, "here, Sora dink this and it will help you calm down."

Sora reached his hand around the cup but didn't take it. Instead he held the hand holding it. Then with out warning, Sora leaned in for a soft kiss. It was short and simple but a kiss was a kiss. Sora then blushed hard and took the offered cup. "Riku," Sora said quietly, "thank you." Not too long after Sora finished the milk, he fell asleep on the couch.

Riku smiled, that may not have been a real kiss, but it was a kiss. Sora did care for him as more than just a friend. Now he just had to get the smaller boy to make it clear. But that was a task for another day. Now it was time for sleep. Riku picked Sora up bridal style again ready to carry him back upstairs. But before he did, he leaned down and kissed the sleeping boys lips with a hard but simple kiss. He wanted to do more but Sora needed his sleep, and he would be there if any other things happened during the night.
