A/N: Hello readers! Another update, woohoo~! Any update is a happy update! So, thanks and enjoy~!
I opened my eyes to the dawn of morning. I sighed, closing my eyes and snuggling to the soft thing I was holding in my arms. Wait...what? I opened my eyes again and took better attention to my surroundings. I wasn't in my home. I was in someone else's.
As I looked down, into my arms I was shocked to find a cute, sleeping brunette resided there. He looked content, snuggled to my chest. Sora. That's right. Sora took me home from the park last night...
I stared at the sleeping eyes of the boy held in my arms, bringing up one hand to brush a few locks out of his face. He looks so peaceful, like this. It was interesting. From what I've seen, when he's awake he's spontaneous and loud, but looking at how he looks now you'd never have guessed that.
I slowly opened my eyes, gazing around my room silently. From the arms around my waist, I could tell Riku was still there, holding me. I blushed. So it wasn't a dream... I turned my head slightly to see his face and noted that he was already awake, looking back at me.
Today, his eyes weren't so clouded with sadness and worry. They were filled with new possibilities and slight contentedness. I smiled at him brightly, putting one of my hands on top of his with out thinking about it.
He smiled softly back at me, taking the hand I put on his in his instead and linked our fingers. I gasped, looking at our clasped hands.
I got slightly worried at Sora's shocked face, but I didn't let it bother me. If he'd let me cuddle with him the whole night, I doubt he'd mind me holding his hand...I hope. I really liked Sora, and I'd like to get to know him better.
I really hoped it wouldn't be the kind of thing where you meet, get along really well, and then stop talking regardless of what happened before. Please...don't let that be the case..
"Go back to sleep Sora..." I trailed, looking at him tiredly. He quickly looked up at the mention of his name. I squeezed his hand in mine. "We already slept in anyways..." I trailed off again quietly. He just looked into my eyes and nodded.
I yawned, turning over to face Riku. Riku gave me a confused look. I simply shook my head and pushed him down so he was laying on his back. I slowly let my head drift down to rest on his chest as I snuggled closer to him, our intertwined hands resting beside my head.
At this point, I didn't care that I'd missed school, or that I was cuddling with an almost stranger. This was Riku. When I was around him, nothing mattered anymore. So, with that, I fell back into a deep sleep, a smile present on my face.
I looked down and checked to make sure Sora was asleep. He was. I carefully crept out from under him and stood slowly. We didn't really oversleep. I could tell I'd gotten him sick last night from cuddling and sharing food with him, he'd had a fever. I opened his door quietly, closing it behind me before walking down the stairs to the kitchen. I wasn't leaving, it would be rude to do that after Sora helped me like he did.
As I entered the kitchen, the question in my mind that had gone unanswered until now, was now answered. There, sitting at the table was my friend Axel, his boyfriend Roxas cooking eggs over at the stove. I pushed away my nerves and walked through the doorway, taking a seat across for Axel.
By this point both the blonde and the firetruck were staring at me. I looked up just as Axel was opening his mouth.
"Riku? What're you doing here bro?" Axel asked, his bitch nodding as if approving the question. I sighed, looking into his eyes.
"Sora brought me here." I stated. I lowered my voice slightly so only Axel could hear, "That bastard kicked me out again and Sora found me at the park, took me here..." I trailed off slowly. Axel nodded slowly. Roxas looked at me accusingly.
"What do you mean he brought you here? He doesn't even know you!" Roxas fumed, crossing his arms across his chest. I looked down at the table, no excuse that would fit coming to mind. I was surprised when Axel spoke up for me.
"Leave it alone, Rox. Sor had his reasons. You know he isn't as naive as you think." Axel scolded the blonde lightly, though he looked at him seriously, as if reassuring that his words should be believed. Roxas sighed but nodded.
"Alright, but don't think you'll get off so easy next time, Riku." Roxas stuck out his tongue at me. I smiled slightly and nodded. "But, speaking of that brunette brat, where is he?" Roxas asked me, flipping his eggs. I shook my head.
"He had a fever when he woke up so I just told him we overslept anyways and to go back to sleep. After he fell back asleep I snuck down here." I didn't think Roxas needed to know how or why Sora got sick, as long as he knew he was. Roxas gave me a worried look but nodded.
When I opened my eyes again, it was cold. I was cold. It didn't feel right... When I looked around, I realized Riku wasn't here... He must've went home... For some reason, thinking that he just left while I was sleeping made me want to cry. I...I didn't want him to go...
I swallowed down the tears before standing slowly and walking steadily towards the door. I was feeling dizzy and I wasn't sure why..
Eventually, had met doorknob and I turned the round object, pushing it outward gently, walking out and closing the door soon after. After leaving the room, I found myself walking cautiously down the stairs to the kitchen. Overslept or not, I was hungry.
I was just sitting back down after getting a cup of coffee (made by Roxas) when I heard footsteps nearing the kitchen. Within a moment, in walked a completely flushed and dazed looking Sora, his left arm holding his right.
"Rrriiikuuuu..." He whined, not noticing the blonde and the pyro in the other half of the kitchen that had suddenly gone quiet. "I'm hungryyyy..." He padded over to me, wrapping his arms around my neck and leaning his head on my shoulder.
To be polite, I hugged the cute brunette back, rubbing small circles on his back. I smiled at him as he looked at me through clouded eyes.
"Well, what do you want to eat Sora?" I asked as softly as I could. His eyes widened slightly, probably at my tone and he smiled a smile I'd never seen on him before. A serious smile, not a goofy nor a laughing smile. He whispered a response as I stared into his eyes.
"Chocolate chip waffles? Can you make me chocolate chip waffles?" Sora asked innocently. I smiled brightly.
"Sure, Sora.
