Riku. He was my light. He was my best friend. He was more than that. He was my love. I loved him more than anything. He was mine. My Riku. I loved him and he loved me back. We were each other's light.
I wanted to kiss Riku again. So, so much. That would be kind of weird though, just bursting out kissing Riku for no apparent reason. But, I wanted to! Did he want to kiss me? My brain had to shut up, Cid was speaking...
"I am going to go back to the shop. You two play nice now!" Riku and I looked at each other and blushed. Cid walked out the door. Man, I really owe Leon this time! He saved my ass! Just dark intentions sensed by the room shoot them out and zap them! No way Maleficent could get close to this room!
"Mikaila, I am tired. I'm going to take a nap," Riku said. I nodded.
"Me too." I wasn't tired; I just was asleep in the gummi ship, but if riku is sleeping, I'll sleep, too.
Riku looked around for some blankets. He looked in a dresser and saw a huge, puffy, inviting blanket. He also pulled out some fluffy, soft pillows. Looking at those made a nap sound so good right now! Riku layed down on the floor. He left a little space for me to lay down next to him. I filled in the space.
"Riku?" I asked.
"Yeah?"
"Before you fall asleep, there's something I want to tell you."
"What?"
"You are my light." I could tell Riku didn't know what to say. He just blushed and looked down. Riku may be good at a lot of things, but when it comes to love, he doesn't know much. I'm the same way. I know how he feels. I got a little closer to him. He wrapped his arms around me. My eyes shut. Next thing I know, I'm dreaming.
"Do you remember your true name?"
"Take care of her."
"If the world is made of light and darkness, we'll be the darkness."
"Number 13. Roxas. The keyblade's chosen one."
"Hayner! Pence! Olette!"
"Let's see. We defeated Ansem, restored peace to the worlds, found Kairi, oh yeah! Then we went to look for Riku!"
"It's the keyblade!"
"Kingdom Hearts."
"I know now, without a doubt, Kingdom Heart is light!"
"We'll go together."
I shot up from my bed. Somehow, my dream felt like some weird deja-vu. Along with every quote came a scene. A scene that I have never seen before, but recognized. Most of the people speaking I knew, Sora, Riku, Donald. Some people I didn't. It was a strange feeling. As if I've been there, but don't remember. I guess that's what dreams are all about.
Riku was asleep next to me. His sweet face half-into a pillow. I just decided to lay back down. Not go back to sleep, but just lie down until Riku woke up. I hummed the melody to Hikari. A couple minutes later, Riku's eyes slipped open. I stared at them. His aqua-blue eyes. His beautiful eyes. The only eyes I longed to see. The only face I needed. The heart that held mine together, but made it feel like pudding. Riku. His eyes. His face. His heart. My light.
Riku.
