So this chapter is a day late, which I am sorry for, but yesterday was a busy day so I had to refrain from working on this chapter. Hope you enjoy!
Sora drove down a few blocks before he realized he had failed to call Riku to ask where they were meeting or even when for that matter. Sora picked up his phone, and dialed Riku's number from his contacts. It took a few dial tones before Riku picked up, and said, "Hey what do you need?"
"I was wondering where we were going to meet, and when," Sora replied.
"Oh I wasn't able to get out into town. I forgot to tell you this morning," Riku responded.
"Oh. Okay I guess. Text me if things change okay?" Sora asked.
"Will do," Riku replied quickly. He hung up before Sora had the chance to say goodbye. Sora looked at the phone, and then set it down between his legs. He turned around to the direction of his apartment.
"Wait, what am I doing? I can still see other friends. I can go check on Namine!" Sora said to himself. He took a turn to the right, and began driving in the direction of Namine's house.
When Sora pulled up he saw Namine was talking to her boyfriend, Lea, out front of her house. He turned off the car, and opened the door to hear the end of their conversation, "What do you mean you think you need a break!" Namine shouted at the red-head.
"I just think that I need to get my priorities straightened out is all," Lea replied, trying to keep the girl calm.
"Well while you're doing that what am I suppose to do? Sit around waiting for you to come back?" Namine asked with venom.
"No, well yes, but…" Lea began. Sora put his hand on Lea's shoulder, and leaned next to the man's head.
"I'd advise leaving," Sora comment as a friendly piece of advice.
"Sora? What do you mean?" Lea asked. The green eyed man looked at the girl to see she was furious at his suggestion earlier. "Right, I'll see you later Sora," Lea replied as he walked away to his car quickly.
"And you better think twice before coming back here!" Namine shouted in fury. Lea quickly pulled out of the driveway, and drove off in a rush.
"You alright?" Sora asked with concern.
"Yeah, I'll be fine," Namine forced out, "He will be back to his senses soon. No worries. So what are you doing here?"
"I was just around town, and felt like stopping by. Can we go inside?" Sora asked.
"Sure," Namine replied as she walked to her front door. The two walked into the girl's home, decked out in white and many of the pictures she had drawn framed along the walls. They walked into her kitchen, and Sora sat down on a stool at the island in the middle of the room. "Want anything to drink?" the girl asked as she pulled a glass out of the cabinet.
"Sure," Sora replied. Namine opened her fridge, and pulled out a pitcher of iced tea. She poured it into two glasses, and quickly put it away. She set down the two glasses on the island when she returned. "Thanks," Sora commented, immediately taking a sip.
"So what have you been up to today? Any plans?" Namine asked.
"Well I was supposed to see Riku today, but that didn't end up happening," Sora replied.
"Riku? What were you two going to do?" Namine asked.
"Just hang out I guess, but he didn't have a ride to town he said," Sora answered.
"What sparked that to happen?" Namine asked with confusion.
"Last night we kind kissed at the game before I came to see you at the doors. We were then going to go to your party, but got distracted," Sora explained.
"Distracted how?" Namine questioned.
"We made out in the back of my car. The only thing that stopped us was Kairi calling me," Sora answered, beginning to blush.
"Really!?" Namine asked with a smile, "That's great! Do you think you two might date?"
"Whoa, wait! We just started something! I'm not sure right now. I'm not opposed to the idea, but I don't know how he feels. I'd have to ask him or his friends," Sora explained.
"Well I approve! You two would be cute together!" Namine commented.
"Thanks!" Sora replied. His phone began to ring and vibrate. He looked down to see it was Yuffie calling him. I wonder what she wants, Sora thought. He answered the phone, and said, "Hello?"
"Sora! Come to the park!" Yuffie shouted into the phone.
"Why?" Sora asked.
"Because Riku is here! Hurry!" Yuffie shouted again. She hung up the phone afterward, leaving Sora looking confused at his phone.
"What was that about?" Namine asked.
"It was Yuffie. I guess Riku is at the park right now," Sora answered.
"I thought he didn't have a way into town?" Namine asked.
"I guess he found one," Sora commented, "I think I'm going to go. Want to come with?"
"No, I have stuff to do around the house. Have fun though!" Namine replied. The two finished their drinks, and walked to the front door. Namine opened the door for Sora, and the boy walked out of the house.
"See you soon Namine!" Sora said as ran to his car. He was determined not to miss Riku a second time. He quickly pulled out of the driveway, and drove to the park, not giving care to why Riku had lied.
Gotta love cliff-hangers huh? I'll keep on posting though! Enjoy!
