A longer chapter this time! (Somewhat) Just to get the story kick-started properly ;) after all- they have to get to the great escape at SOME point right? Hope you enjoy- sorry for the wait! I had exams for the last while… and yeah- I had no time to post, but I have lots written! :D
Disclaimer: I don't own kingdom hearts or its characters, setting etc, nor do I own the song 'the great escape' by SNSD :(
The Great Escape
Kairi's POV
I barely saw Sora. Or any of the others for the next week, as me and my parents were busy unpacking, and sorting out our new home. Moving had been worth it though- for so many reasons.
But that isn't to say that I still didn't see Sora.
We met a few times, but were only able to say a few words. But even though I barely saw him, that didn't stop me from looking for him constantly.
It was like an addiction. I saw traces of him everywhere, in other people.
I had to go to the Great Escape.
Sora's POV
I spent the next week helping Riku with his wacky plans for the great escape, but I spent most of it thinking about Kairi. It was insane thinking about her so much. Only Selphie fell in and out of crushes this fast, but I was pretty sure I was beating her record.
I had never really liked anyone so fast or so much. It scared me, but at the same time filled me with fearlessness. I couldn't wait to see Kairi again- even if it meant I was going to the Great Escape.
Kairi's POV
Okay, so here I was.
It had taken a lot to get here, begging, bribery and even some blackmail, not to mention the guilt tripping.
But it was all worth it. I was going to the Great Escape. I couldn't wait. From what I had heard, it was amazing. And now I was about to go. But in my heart- I knew I just wanted to see Sora.
Walking along the sand of the beach, I looked out, looking at all of the tiny islands all lit up with lanterns. My summer dress swished around my thighs as a breeze went along the beach, gently lifting my hair.
"Kairi!"
Turning my head, I saw who yelled my name.
"Come on Kairi! You'll miss the boat!"
I hurried over to Selphie and the others
Sora's POV
I had been on the islands all day, but I was still stunned when I saw it all lit up.
And then I saw a light that blew all the others out of the water.
Kairi
I hadn't seen her properly in a week, but it felt like so much more. It scared me how much I had missed her. She looked like a sylph, in the floaty dress she was wearing, the breeze swishing her hair. I wanted to hold her again and see if she still had that enchanting scent on her. It had haunted me all week. My heart took control, and I found myself walking towards her.
Kairi's POV
It was amazing how just seeing Sora's face could make me smile.
He made everything better somehow- like he was the sun.
The hours passed in a blur- until it was just Sora and I. He had pulled me away from the others so we could be 'alone'. I noticed the smirks of the others. We clambered around the island, until we came to a tiny cove. We sat down beside each other at the edge of the sand, Sora's hand in mine.
I had been looking out when I glanced back at Sora.
His eyes were gazing t me and I felt a blush heat my face.
Before I knew it, he was leaning towards me, his eyes locked on mine. My breath hitched, and his other hand, the only that wasn't holding mine, reached towards me and lightly, a butterfly touch, ever so gently touched my cheek. His hand traced my cheekbone, his eyes still fixated on me. His thumb gently touched my lips. Again I was frozen, but I was far from cold. My face felt like Sora's touch left a gentle burn, a searing touch that reached down into my bones.
Then he leant forward, eyes never leaving mine, only once looking down at my lips, and his lips brushed mine.
He kissed me.
I felt heat flush through my entire body, turning my bones to jelly.
It felt so wonderful, I felt so alive- until reality crashed back, and I was reminded of my memories of Radiant Garden of a guy who had been so similar to Sora. He had been so sweet at first too.
I pulled myself back, out of his addictive kiss and leant back, moving away.
"Sora….i think... It would be better if we remained friends."
The moment things start to change, get out of this place
