I open my eyes to be greeted by the warm, early summer sun. My eyes are puffy from crying all night, but I feel chill now. I stretch and I get a text on my phone. I look down and it's from Riku.
"Why do I put myself through this?" I say. The text message reads: Lets hang at the pool today. It's beautiful outside." I reply "Ok. What time?" but out loud I say "Why? So you can fuck Edward in the changing room?". I sigh and change into real clothes and walk downstairs.
My mom is sitting at the table, and theres a big plate of waffles in the center. "Morning." I mumble and take my seat, I cant really specify a place because the table is round. "Yaaah grrrrgggg!" Sophie, my little sister gurgled at me.
I smiled and took two waffles, smothering them with syrup. "So. Hows your summer so far? You haven't been out much." my mom said. "Eh, theres not really nothing to do." I said. "Not really anything to do." My mom corrected me. I glared up at her "You know. Grammar nazis don't get waffles." I said.
She laughed. "Riku and I are going to the pool later, if thats ok?" I added with a mouthful of food. "Sure. But if you come home sun burnt, I get to skin you alive." she threatened. I smiled and swallowed the last bit of waffle.
"Thanks for breakfast. Now I'm going to try to find something to do...if that is at all possible." I informed. "How about that paper thats due in english next year?"she said. "Ugh, summer homework. Not my thing." I retorted.
"Yeah, well it is when your mother is the english teacher!" she shot back with a grin. "Touche Professor Quistis..." I said with an eye roll.
4 hours later
"So Sora? Why did you leave yesterday?" Riku asked as we walked to the public pool. "It was an emergency. Mom needed me to watch Sophie for a little while." I lied. "Mmmm...What for?" Riku asked again. "I dont know. She just had something to do." once again, I lied.
We stepped through the walkway into the pool and paid out fee, and got a stamp. Why do we need stamps? It will just wash off in the pool. I yelped when I stepped into the water and the coolness of it touched my...region. "Haha. Watch out!" Riku giggled and pushed me in. I spit water at him and grabbed the waist of his trunks and pulled him in after me.
After hours of splashing and swimming the sun was setting and people were leaving the pool. Me and Riku sat floating in the corner. "Have you ever kissed a guy, Sora?" Riku asked.
"You know I haven't...and neither have you!" I said, blushing. "Thats just it. Do you think we should kiss? Just to know what it's like?" I said. "I...don't know?" I said, I know I was blushing now, so I looked to my side.
Riku put his hand on my cheek and pulled my lips to his. I was shocked, but my body was acting on it's own. I wrapped my arms around his neck and slid my tongue into his mouth. He was guiding the kiss, and I let him. This was my dream moment, if it only meant something.
All to short it seemed, we stopped kissing and parted. "We should do that more often. That was fun!" Riku said. "Y-yeah. We should. Hahahah!" I stuttered a little.
Riku and I rose out of the pool and left the public pool place. We arrived at my house and said our goodbyes. I walked straight to my room feeling...unfulfilled. "Oh, if only he were mine." I said to myself and tried to go to sleep.
