chapter 5 Catching Up
Sora and Kairi walked to the beach in silence, they both thought the other saw them starring, and they both suddenly became very shy. "So…uh… Sora you…uh… didn't tell me about where you've the last three years" she felt stupid trying to change the subject off her starring, she could almost hear him thinking about how stupid she was. Sora felt glad that she changed the subject, but he knew it was only to save him from embarrassment, she must have thought he was a dork or something, just starring like that, why was he so damn stupid? He ruined everything! "well" he said "I've been fighting those heartless everywhere. They just don't stop coming you know" "Sounds really scary you must be really brave Sora." Damn it she thought why did I have to say it like that, now he must think I'm a crazy little girl, who's completely immature. What in the hell is wrong with me? Sora took her bravery remark as pity, and thought she's making fun of me, why did I make fighting heartless as a big deal uuhhgg she thinks I'm stupid. Now they both walked quietly some more, the sea was really calm, Sora seemed to enjoy it, but Kairi just couldn't. she looked at the little crab near there feet, she thought it was beautiful, however she was real envious that the crab didn't have to deal with love. Right now love was making her miserable. "So what did you do while I was gone?" Sora said trying to get a response from her. "Oh a little of this, a little of that" she said "I really haven't done anything, just couldn't wait for you to come ho…" she tried to stop in the middle of her words but it was to late "…home" she finished. Idiot! Why do I keep saying stuff like that! Sora however felt a million pounds lifted off his chest with those words. "Kairi I couldn't wait to get home to you either." Just like Sora did, Kairi felt the same million pounds lifted off her chest. They both loosened up and told each other there stories. After a long walk, they came up to their "secret place" by accident, but neither minded. "Hey!! here's a place I haven't been to in a while!! Lets go in!!" Sora said. Kairi nodded, just happy that the awkwardness was long forgotten. As they got in there they looked at all the old pictures they used to draw, but one simultaneously caught both of their attention, the one they drew for each other. When Kairi remembered the poupu fruit she drew for him yesterday, before he returned, she blushed deeply. When Sora remembered the one he drew for her before he left, he too blushed really red. Then he noticed her picture, he blushed so brightly he thought he would melt. When he saw her blushing, he realized what was happening. "Kai… did you draw this for me?" he asked shyly. "Well I…Uh… I…drew it but…uh…only because I love…" OH CRAP WHAT DID I BACK MY SELF INTO she thought "…love… drawing! Yeah that's it drawing!" "Are you sure Kai…this is a picture of a poupu fruit!" Sora said. "UH…NO… I MEAN…YES…I MEAN…NO…no…no Sora I'm not sure I think I…uh…love you. Kairi almost immediately started streaming with tears. Sora completely in shock, not quite registering what she just said, just stood there, dumbfounded. Oh my God he doesn't love me back that's why he's so silent! the thought made her crying turn to sobbing. Suddenly the woman he loved tears, snapped him out of it, he grabbed her in his arms by instinct just to comfort her, and reassure her, she grabbed him back and just cried, finally her tears subsided, and they just stayed there in each others arms for what seemed like hours to them both. When they finally let go Kairi said "you think I'm pathetic don't you" she let out a little sniff, and waited for his answer. The thought of her thinking he thought she was pathetic, nearly made him cry also "Of course not Kai sniff I love you too, I love you so, so much, I was just scared to tell you sniff because I thought you didn't feel the same" he broke down in tears, and Kairi held on to him just as he did for her. They stayed like that only for a moment though, then they embraced in a deep hard kiss, they tickled each other with their tongues, and when it was over both of them were panting for breath. Neither could believe the amazing make out session they just had.
