Chapter 16 – Meteor Shower pt 5
"Where are we going?" Roxas asked climbing through bushes and palm tree's uphill behind Axel who would help him up some steep steps here and there.
"You'll see!" The flame head said grabbing Roxas' hand and pulling him up. "We're almost there." After making their way a couple more feet uphill they stopped on top of a stone ledge. Axel kneeled down. "Get on." He made a head notion.
Roxas carefully wrapped his arms around Axel's shoulders. Axel grabbed the boy's legs, pulling them to his sides as he stood up.
"Well," He grinned. "Do you see it?"
Roxas brushed Axel's hair away from his face, putting his head closely beside Axel's; cheek to cheek. "You mean the Island?!" Roxas asked, his mouth ajar staring at the sight.
"Yeah," Axel turned his head to the side, Roxas moving his own to face Axel. "You wanna go?"
"Of course. But how?" Roxas frowned.
"Beats me." Axel sighed.
"You could go by boat." A voice came from the bushes. Axel set Roxas down, both of them turning toward the sound. Axel stood in front of Roxas. "Who's there?!" He sternly asked.
"C'mon Ax, you don't remember me?" The boy came out of the bushes, pulling a leaf out of his blue hair.
"Isa!" Axel said excitingly, walking over the boy.
"Who's Isa?" Roxas asked, coming up beside Axel.
"We were like best friends in kindergarten," Axel explained. "What happened to you?!"
"Homeschooling," Isa frowned. "Is he your boyfriend?"
Axel opened his mouth to answer but was cut off by Roxas' unpleasant "No."
"Isn't he something?" Axel grinned, combing his fingers through Roxas' light hair.
"Yeah, I've heard him sing in town," Isa remarked. "But if you want to go to that island, you guys can come with me. The day of the full moon. Bring your friends if you want. I only have two boats though, four's the maximum capacity."
"What are they," Roxas asked. "Row boats?"
"Yep," Isa smiled. "Man made by yours truly!"
"Selphie," Sora looked around. They were walking on the empty side of the beach. "Where are we going?"
"You'll see!" Selphie grabbed Sora's hand and began running. "C'mon, let's hurry!"
"W-wait," Sora halfway stumbled through almost every step. "It's hard to run this fast in sand!"
Selphie brought Sora over to a tiny wooden cabin, built next to the boating dock. "A shed?" Sora put his hands on his hips.
"It's what's inside the shed," Selphie said, putting her hands on the wooden block that held it in place. "Tidus, Wakka! Now!" She yelled quickly pulling the block up, opening the door. Sora felt himself get shoved inside by what seemed to be Wakka from the flash of orange and brown he saw. The door had only closed and locked in milliseconds after Sora was pushed inside.
He banged on the door. "Hey," he yelled. "Let me out!" The inside of the shed was fairly dark, Sora not being able to see anything inside.
"Let's play seven minutes in heaven, Sora!" Selphie yelled back giggling.
"More like an hour in heaven," Sora heard Tidus' muted voice. "Let's get something to eat!"
"Be back late, ya!" Wakka yelled, the three running off.
Sora bent his knees, going low to the floor. "What do they mean seven minutes in heaven?" He sighed. He then jumped feeling someone touch his midsection. "WHO ARE YOU!? GET AWAY!" He squirmed, pushing himself to the other side of the shed.
"Sora calm down," He heard the familiar voice. "It's just me."
"Riku?" Sora reached out his hand, feeling the skin of the other being. Riku grabbed Sora's wrist.
"Yeah." He said, removing the brunettes hand from his face.
"Why am I in here!?" Sora angrily asked.
"I don't know," Riku rolled his eyes. "Not like I wanted to be locked in here with you."
"Hmph," Sora crossed his arms against his chest, leaning against the wall of the shed. "Not like I wanted to be either!"
He heard Riku laugh. "Is that the best you can do?!"
"Well," Sora tried to find something to say. "If I did any worse you'd probably hurt me. Just like what you did to Roxas!"
"You think I did that for fun?" Riku asked.
"No!"
"You're such an idiot!" Riku laughed again.
"At least I don't forget about my friends!" Sora yelled angrily. Riku stopped laughing.
"What do you mean?" He asked, his tone of voice softening.
"Ever since you joined the Blitzball team you've treated everyone else like they're nothing," Sora explained. "I bet if I were to become a 'star' like you, I wouldn't treat anyone any less!"
"Not like you could become anything close to me anyway." Riku responded.
"You know what," Sora stood up. "I will! I'll try out for that spot on the blitzball team like Selphie had wanted me to and I'll become just as good as you or even better!"
"Do you really think you, a boy with two left feet, could make it onto a blitzball team?!" Riku laughed at the thought.
"Yes!" Sora was confident.
"Good luck with that." Riku grinned.
The brunette reached into his pocket and pulled out his phone, the shed lighting blue from the LED screen.
"There's no signal." He heard Riku say. Angrily frowning he flashed the light on Riku's face, seeing Riku put his hand in front of his adjusting eyes.
"We need to get out of here," Sora said. He sat back down, turning on his phones flash light application and placing it in between the two. He hugged his knees. "Or we're going to miss the meteor shower." The brunette began to sniffle, and so he placed his head in between his knees.
"Are you really going to cry over missing a meteor shower?" Riku asked, staring at the helpless looking Sora.
"That's not why I'm crying!" Sora responded.
"Then why ar-"
"I hate you! That's why I'm crying. I hate you, I hate you, I hate you!"
"Okayyy." Riku rolled his eyes again.
"But then I realize that I can't hate you," Sora sniffled. "And that just makes it even worse!"
"And why can't you hate me?" Riku sighed, leaning his head on the wall of the shed.
"Because," Sora began, but went silent when he heard the door creak open.
"You two okay in here?" A cop stood in the doorway, flashing her flashlight in both of their faces.
"Yeah," Riku stood up, grabbing Sora. "Come on, Sora." He put on a fake smile.
"Is he okay?" The policewoman asked.
"He's just sad because he thought he was going to miss the meteors," Riku assured the police officer. "We're okay. Don't worry."
"Well, you'd better hurry!" The officer smiled. Riku smiled back, watching the officer walk away.
"Stop crying, will you," The two began to walk back to the full side of the beach. "People are going to assume something bad."
Sora sniffled and rubbed his eyes. "I'm trying, I'm trying!" They stopped midway to the main area of the beach, waiting for Sora to finish his waterworks.
Riku saw the shower begin to happen, seeing a couple of stars streak through the sky. "Make a wish." He sighed, placing his hands in his pockets.
"The wishes never come true." Sora pouted, still rubbing some of the tears.
"Not with an attitude like that," Riku grinned, closing his eyes. "I wish for Sora to stop crying." He opened his eyes, looking at Sora stare blankly at him. He put his hand to Sora's chin. "See, it worked!"
Sora snapped out of his daze and brushed Riku's hand from off his chin, blushing. "I really hate you." He said looking at the sand as they began to walk once again.
I remember a review of someone saying they don't see how/why Sora would want join the Blitzball team. Well there you go !1!11! ;u;
And most some of the reviews want to see SoRiku happen already. Well, all I can say is: Be patient :'D *shot*
