Good to Be Home
Romance (SoraXKairi)
It was early Saturday morning, and as such there was no school today, it was just a nice weekend that Sora could finally just sit down and enjoy.
"BEEP-BEEP-BEEP!!!" The clock in his bedroom began to wail.Sora woke up with a start, eyes tired and heavy; he then looked at the source of the noise, mouth agape.
"You…woke me up…to tell me it was six in the morning…on SATURDAY? Man…so much for sleeping in…" The spiky brunette began to send hate thoughts towards the little white box, and was sorely tempted to smash it with his Keyblade, being as it continued to beep, annoying the teen. He opted not to though, being as he didn't feel like using munny to buy a new one, so he just pressed the snooze. After a stretch and a yawn, the Keyblade master put on his usual clothes, a navy muscle shirt with a red hand pouch, a hooded black jacket, and black, and poofy pants that had cargo pouches on the sides…he decided not to wear his shoes today, because of where he wanted to go later. He quickly ate breakfast and left, being sure to let his parents know he was leaving first. After a few minutes of walking, he made it to his destination…the beach. He just laid down and plopped in the sand. The brunette didn't care if he got covered with the stuff, he loved the sand. He just sat there, waiting for the sunrise. The boy closed his eyes, figuring he had time to catch up on his sleep that was so annoyingly cut short by his clock. Once again, this didn't last too long, he heard soft footsteps in the sand coming to his right. Judging by how light and dainty each step was, he knew exactly who it was, so he tried to play opossum.
"Sora, you lazy bum, wake up." The familiar voice of the girl he loved rang in the brunette's ears. He continued to fake sleep, but he couldn't help but crack a smile, blowing his cover. He opened his eyes, to see a young lady with shoulder length, vivid auburn hair, wearing a peach halter top with a white t-shirt underneath staring down at him with her pleasantly peaceful cyan eyes. Her head was over his, causing her hair to dangle past her face, allowing the breeze to play with it. Sora just smiled, taking in her radiance.
"Whoa…talk about déjà vu. You might wanna be careful on how you say things; you might send me on another adventure, Kairi." Sora laughed as he remembered that this was pretty much what happened last time. Kairi giggled a little bit herself and sat next to him.
"So, you decided not to wear your shoes today?" Kairi reached for Sora's toes and gave them a quick tickling, causing the boy to playfully jerk his feet away from her.
"Heh-heh, yeah. I figured that it would be nice because it had been so long since I had the feeling of sand between my toes…I missed that feeling. I missed…being home, with you, with Riku." Sora spoke in an as-a-matter-of-fact tone, not really showing too much emotion…just…stating the fact.
"I know what you mean, Sora." Kairi smiled as she pointed to her feet, there were no shoes on them as well, Sora noticed and this caused a grin to form on the young man's face.
"So, what are you doing up so early?" Sora inquired as he passed her a glance, a small, faint blush came across his face.
"Well…I felt like waking up early to see the sunrise. How about you? You're not one to wake up earlier than nine thirty on Saturdays." Kairi giggled.
"Um…let's just say I forgot about my alarm clock." Sora sighed, he wasn't so angry with the clock now, it had allowed him to see Kairi.
"I see…well, that happens." Kairi nodded in understanding. "It's hard to believe how much we've been through over this last year…how much you've been through. Thank you." The auburn gently spoke as she scooted next to Sora, who sat up.
"I'd gladly do it all again, if it meant you'd be safe, Kairi…you're welcome. To be honest, my heart was broken whenever I heard you where in trouble…I wanted to hurt whoever was responsible, but I also wanted to save you and just forget it all…I just wanted to see you…only you. I cared for nothing more than you and Riku's safety, you especially. I…I don't know what I'd do if something happened to you…" Sora's voice was serious, when Kairi looked at him, she saw an expression of pain, but there was also peace, and certainty. The girl just sat quietly, taking in the moment, she didn't know what to say. After a while of silence, the young lady began to shiver, being as the morning breeze was a little on the chilly side.
"Are you cold?" Sora inquired with a look of worry on his face. Without waiting for a response from Kairi, he pulled off his jacket and placed it on the girl's shoulders. She just brought it over her body, soaking in the warmth that it gave off. She blushed at the gesture, it was very sweet of him.
"Thank you, Sora…but…won't you get cold?" Kairi softly spoke as she gave a look of gratitude and slight concern to the young man next to her.
"Nah, I'll be fine…the breeze is actually quite pleasant. Thank you for asking." Sora gave an assuring smile as he placed his hand on top of Kairi's. She actually didn't mind, his hands were comforting to her…she felt safe. There was a period of blissful silence between the two teens as they just enjoyed the scenery…and one another's company. The spiky brunette broke the silence, "Kairi…"
"Yeah, Sora?" The auburn haired princess turned to face him, she noticed that his blue eyes revealed that he was confused and timid, accompanied by a small blush across his face, it wasn't like him and it puzzled her a little bit.
"Um…Kairi, I…I…" Sora began to stumble on his words, but before he could finally put a sentence together, Kairi leaned over and gave him a small kiss.
"I know…I love you too, Sora." She softly whispered as she brushed back one of her loose bangs. She then gave a dainty laugh, "Besides…I think that kiss was a little past due."
"Well…I…guess that went better than I thought. So…does this mean that…" Sora began to question, but Kairi picked up on it.
"Yes, Sora, I'm your girlfriend. Te-he, you're so cute when you're naïve." Kairi smiled as she gave the man of her dreams a hug.
"Say what you want, Kairi, I'm just glad we're together again." Sora chuckled as he returned the hug.
"I am too…oh, Sora, look." Kairi gasped as she felt the water push something up against her feet. It was a Papou fruit. The two teens just stared at one another, understanding what was to come next. Sora then picked up the fruit and broke it in half…the two shared the delicious fruit, watching the sun finally break through the horizon. It was going to be a very happy life for them, a beautiful Princess and her brave Knight.
