Disclaimer: I do not own Kingdom Hearts or it's characters.
Axel stared at the ground his fists clenched, he totally forgot about Kairi! He banged his fist on the ground frustrated, "So that's what Xemnas meant when he said not to do anything stupid."
Roxas looked at Axel with a worried expression on his face, "Axel what's going on? What's wrong?"
Axel sighed and stood up, "We screwed up Roxas big time, " He grabbed his hand, "Come on were going to find Kairi and tell her it's all our fault."
"Don't!" Xemnas shouted, "You'll only make the situation worse. Let Kairi and Sora figure things out on their own." He told them calming down a bit from his previous actions.
"Why not!" Axel turned around shouting furious that Xemnas would even suggest such a thing after it was his and Roxas's fault in the first place.
Xemnas stared at him hard, "Do you want to screw things up even more? Your already in enough shit with me so I suggest you stop right now because even Saix won't be even to hold me back this time."
Axel glared at him and gritted his teeth, "Damn you."
Larxene was getting really annoyed with their arguing, Marluxia noticing this spoke up, "How about you both settle down before real blood shed happens. Larxene's getting really annoyed right now, and I don't think I want to spend the next hour cleaning up your blood."
Axel rolled his eyes, "Right she's pregnant, which means she's gonna be even more of a bitch."
"Axel!" Roxas shouted at him.
Axel was even more frustrated then before it seemed like now even his boyfriend was going against him, "Fine whatever." He opened the door and slammed it shut right in Roaxs's face.
Roxas frowned and walked back to sit down near Xemnas and Saix, "So what exactly happened with Kairi?"
Xemnas sighed rubbing his temples, feeling a headache coming on, "Well when we were walking here we Kairi ran into me bawling her eyes out. We saw Sora run after her. Squall came up to us and said something about Riku and Sora, so I figured Kairi must've saw something."
Roxas lowered his head, "It is all our fault. We knew Riku liked Sora so we thought it might be good for him to tell Sora his true feelings. I never thought it would come to this."
-Somewhere in town-
"Kairi! Kairi wait!" Sora shouted finally catching up to her, "It-it's not what you think." He said out of breath.
"Then what? I'm supposed to believe that me seeing you hugging Riku isn't what I think it is! I think you actually like Riku!"
"I-I dunno. But Riku was about to tell me what was wrong with him. Maybe he just needed a little comfort that's all you know from being in the darkness to long."
"Sora, seriously I see the way he looks at you. It's obvious he thinks of you more than just a best friend."
"Kairi, I think he was actually going to tell me that he loved me." He looked away and blushed not wanting Kairi to see.
Kairi gasped softly and her eyes softened, "Aww that's so sweet of him."
Sora's head turned back quickly. He stared at her blinking a couple of times, "Huh?"
Kairi smiled, "It's simple really, Riku loves you a lot and deep down I know you love him too."
"Kairi…….are you sure about this?" He asked her putting his hands on her shoulders and looking at her serious.
Kairi nodded, "Em-hm. Just go to him he needs you more than I do."
Sora smiled and hugged his best friend, "Thanks for understanding Kairi."
Kairi hugged him back, "Your welcome that's what best friends are for right?"
Sora pulled back and nodded smiling brightly, "Yeah."
"Now go get him tiger!"
"Right!" He shouted waving as he ran off back in the direction of the Bailey.
Kairi waved back as well. After Sora was out of sight she brought her hand to her chest and looked down. She smiled and looked back up with newfound confidence, "I'll be okay!" She shouted to the air and ran in the direction of the café.
-Bailey-
Sora towards the Bailey in search of Riku, it had only been a couple of minutes so he figured he couldn't have gotten to far. Sora finally spotted him sitting on the wall looking out towards the sunset. He ran up to Riku breathing heavily from running all that way.
"R-Riku there's something I need to tell you."
Riku kept staring out into the horizon never really acknowledging that he was actually there. He sighed, "What about Kairi?"
Sora half glared at his best friend, "I don't care about Kairi right now all I care about is you!"
Riku's eyes shot open for a second registering what Sora had just said, "You what? But I thought you and Kairi…"
Sora shook his head and looked Riku straight in the eyes, "This has nothing to do with Kairi, Riku."
"Then what does it have to deal with?"
"It has to deal with you and me. What were you going to say to me before Kairi showed up?"
Riku looked at him for a minute and turned his head feeling a faint blush creeping upon his cheeks. He stared at the ground his words coming out in a stuttering motion, "Sora I…..I l-love you."
Sora smiled, so Kairi had been right after all. Riku looked back out towards the setting sun, "You probably think I'm weird or twisted don't you?"
Sora shook his head at his naïve friend. He took Riku's face in both of his hands, "Well then I guess you can say I'm a bit weird and twisted myself."
Riku's eyes widened, "Sora…what are you trying to say?"
"That I love you too Riku." He smiled brightly.
Silent tears seemed to stream down the older teens face. But unlike last time when they were tears of sadness these were tears of happiness. He pulled Sora into a strong hug, afraid of letting go in fear that this might be all a dream and nothing more. But it wasn't a dream this was real.
Riku leaned down and placed a soft kiss on the younger boys lips. He pulled away to look at a very embarrassed Sora. He laughed slightly and put his forehead to his, "So you think we should go tell the others?"
Sora smiled mischievously, "I think they can wait till tomorrow." He said and before Riku could say anything else the younger boy already had his lips sealed over his.
-Two days later-
Xemnas, Saix, and Demyx were walking through the streets of Radiant Garden. Demyx was forced to tag along with them because Zexion had a surprise for him at home so he couldn't be around him. Things seemed to be going just fine. That is until Saix suddenly felt dizzy. He fell to his knees and coughed up a little blood.
Xemnas's eyes widened as he dropped down to Saix's height, "Saix, what's wrong!"
Luckily Aerith had been walking in on the street from the other direction and saw Saix fall. She ran over to them, "Xemnas what happened?"
Xemnas was literally freaking out, "I don't know he seemed fine just a second ago and then he collapsed and coughed up blood!"
Aerith's eyes narrowed as she looked Saix over, "I've seen these symptoms before. Demyx! I need you to go tell the others Saix has influenza!"
"Yes ma'm!" Demyx yelled as he ran down the street to tell the others at the café. He saw Riku and Sora walking towards him hand in hand. He stopped right in front of them.
Riku and Sora stared at him, "Demyx what's wrong where are you going in such a hurry?" Sora asked worried.
Demyx breathed hard as he tried to get the words out, "It's Saix….he has." Demyx turned his head from side to side and leaned into them whispering, "Influenza."
Riku blinked at him a few times. He was in a really good mood today and he couldn't help but snort trying not to laugh. Sora jabbed him in his side, "Riku! Influenza isn't something to laugh about you can die from it!"
Riku tried to calm down but it wasn't working, "Yes I know b-but….influenza." He burst out laughing this time.
Demyx sighed and went on ahead seeing as he wasn't going to get anywhere with these two. He ran into the café out of breath. Everyone stopped what they were doing and stared at him.
"Demyx what's going on?" Axel asked from his seat in one of the booths, his arm around Roxas since they made up the day before.
"Saix he has influenza." Demyx whispered.
"You mean the one that can kill you?" Marluxia asked.
"Yeah that one!"
Axel smirked he never liked Saix to begin with, "Cool…"
"Axel!" Roxas shouted.
"What! That guy is a total jackass!"
They heard the door opened someone with long spiky hair that had the color of a chocobo's feathers walked through the door. His large boots making a loud clanking sound as they hit the floor.
Yuffie smiled and ran up to him, "Hiya Cloud! Aerith's not back yet."
Cloud nodded, "There's something I came to tell you guys."
Squall's eyes narrowed. He knew that look on Cloud's face after all they were fighting partners. He stood up and walked over standing next to Yuffie, "Cloud what is it?"
Cloud sighed heavily and rubbed the back of his head, "Well it's the heartless. We haven't seen any around in two years and now they're starting to come back. I have this to prove it." He pulled up his sleeve of the shirt he wore to show a long cut covered in cloth still bleeding through.
This made things even worse Saix was down with influenza and now Cloud comes bearing bad news what more could go wrong?
A/N: Well that was chapter four I hope you all enjoyed it! So you'll just have to wait for chp 5 until then!
