A/N: Back to Tane

Knocking at the door woke Tane up again, but this time she was less than grateful. Her sleep had been dreamless, and therefore peaceful. Being awakened from that wasn't nice. Blinking the sleep from her eyes, she pushed herself up and walked towards the door. But she stopped short of the handle and froze, a small frown covering her face. That was probably Riku, sure he'd seen her half asleep and half naked last night, but that didn't mean she was planning to let him see her in that state again.

"One second" she called over her shoulder, running over to her bag and getting clean clothes. The same red top and black shorts are ever. She quickly picked up the hair brush that was sitting on the side of her cupboard, running it through her mass of red hair trying to tame it. She could atleast try to look decent. Giving up, and having no more to do, Tane walked towards the door, pulling it open and offering a small smile to the older boy. Riku was stood lounging carelessly against the back wall. It looked like the wall had been made for him to lean on.

Riku seemed to look her over for a few seconds, before a small smile flickered across his features, disappearing within less than a second and he held out his hand. Tane's mind was screaming at her to ask about last night, but she wasn't sure if she wanted an answer. If he said yes, he liked her, then what? She guessed they'd be 'together', but that wasn't guaranteed, anything could go wrong. Though, that would be better than him saying no. What would happen then? They'd all forget the whole thing? Tane wasn't sure she wanted to forget all this, or whether she could.

But it was clear she wouldn't get an answer yet from how Riku was acting. Sure he'd smiled at her, but that smile wasn't exactly warm and welcoming. So instead, she decided to ask a different question,

"Where are we going?" Riku seemed to think about the question for a minute, before creating a portal infront of them

"Agrabah" He said as he held out his hand to her. Tane was getting used to the idea of portals, but it was still strange to hold Riku's hand. And where the hell was 'Agrabah'?

"Agra-what?" She frowned, taking a hold of his hand. The feel of his fingers against hers was starting to become familiar, and she couldn't help but smile slightly. Where was Agra-thingy though? It wasn't somewhere she'd ever heard of. It didn't sound very romant- No way was she just thinking about wanting to go somewhere romantic with Riku. Luckily the boy in question's voice snapped her back to reality.

"Agrabah, I've got something to do there" She wanted to question him further on what that something was and why she was needed, but it didn't seem like a good idea. He really wasn't in the question-answering mood right now apparently. Though he didn't seem in a bad mood either. Infact, Tane was sure he flashed her a brief smile before stepping through the portal, pulling her behind him.

She had to admit she hadn't expected the sand, and judging by the look on Riku's face, neither had he. But if he was going to drag her somewhere that reminded her of a beach, she was going to have fun. Sitting down Tane attempted to build a sandcastle, feeling like a five-year-old again, though because the sand was so fine it appeared more like a miniature hill.

"Baby" She heard the older boy tease, though there was no cruelness in his voice

"Can you honestly say you don't want to play in the sand?" The blonde shook his head, making her frown. How could someone not want to play with sand, it's just something you never grow out of. Though maybe Riku never grew into it. Maybe he just needed some encouragement. Tane scooped up a handful of sand and stood up, moving onto her toes and reaching over his head before letting go of the sand.

"Oops" She grinned looking at the unamused expression that was crossing his features, "Slipped" But within 5 seconds she was lying on the floor, her feet kicked from underneath her and a heavy weight ontop of her chest. Luckily Riku's firm hand had steadied her back to stop her from falling straight down, but she had still ended up on the sand. A frown covered her face as she looked up at him,

"Slipped" He said leaning over the redhead. Somehow she was sure he hadn't slipped, but what good would arguing about that do. Instead she continued to frown up at the older boy. He didn't appear unamused anymore, Infact it was quite the opposite.

"Riku?" She questioned, after several seconds past and his weight on her chest was starting to affect her breathing.

"Hmm?" Was all she got for a reply, along with his hand lightly brushing a strand of red hair from her face, though it lingered on her hair slightly longer than necessary.

"I uhm- we should, Agrabah?" She stammered, still not used to this new version of the boy she'd grown up with. Riku gave a small nod, standing up off of her chest, and Tane took a deep breath in finally able to breathe properly. Moving into a sitting position, she glanced up at him, taking his now outstretched hand and letting him pull her up. Though she hadn't expected for him to pull her right up close to him, and her expression must have shown such, as he had a smug look on his own features. But as the smug look faded from the blonde and he turned serious, the hairs on Tane's neck stood up- despite the heat of the sun beating down on their heads. And as he bent down to lightly press his lips to hers in a sweet kiss, a tingling sensation filled her whole body, like she'd just stepped out of a bath that was slightly too hot. A small smile was on both teens' faces as the older took a step back, linking his fingers into the youngers and heading towards one of the buildings. Riku might have seemed calm and collected as usual now, but Tane's head was reeling. Did that mean he wanted them to be together? But he hadn't said it, not in so many words. Infact he hadn't said any words. But that kiss.. that sweet, innocent, loving kiss. That must have meant something, right?

She'd been so wrapped up in her own thoughts, the redhead hadn't even realised they'd entered one of the sand buildings until the sound someone screaming snapped her back to reality. What the hell was going on. Looking around the room, Tane realised Riku had let go of her hand and was now holding another girl around the waist, one hand covering her mouth to stop any more screams. He may have been holding her, but it definitely wasn't kindly. Tane couldn't help feeling slightly smug about that.

"What are you doing?" She half shouted, true she should've known better than to question him as all it seemed to do was make him angry, but when he was suddenly grabbing some random girl that clearly didn't want to be grabbed, she couldn't help it.

"Do you want Kairi back or not?" She didn't bother to answer that. Ofcourse she wanted her sister back, but still how was taking this girl going to do that? Rather than asking another question she decided to just walk through the new portal that had appeared, Riku not far behind carrying the girl.
