I am. I just had two string cheeses, but that didn't fill me.
Leon turned his head to the side slighlty, seeing the question in Riku's expression. "We'll give him a five minute head start," he said simply. "Anybody wanna go get him after that?" He didn't care if he did it or not; if Riku, Roxas, or even Yuffie wanted to speak to Sora, it was fine with him. Sora was so fired up by his anger and frustration that he hardly noticed his exhaustion as he took a right turn, following the path toward the stairs. His blood was boiling, not only in anger, but in sadness. And rage, there was a lot of rage, too. He wanted to scream out his frustrations. However, he feared he would be overheard, so he kept it inside, silently steaming as he went up the stairs.
Break- Three Days Grace
Bummer! xD Oh well, I will survive.
Leon silently watched Sora for a moment, not really knowing what to say to that. He didn't have to ponder his thoughts for long, though, since Sora was now rising to his feet. When Sora was fully upright, he looked up at Leon. "Sometimes, you have to deal with it by yourself." With those words, Sora took a few steps over and opened the door, walking out of the home. He shut it behind him and just kept walking, not waiting for anybody to come after him. He didn't want anybody to come, but he had a feeling he couldn't get away from them that easily.
I'm jealous. xD Any way you could send some to me over the internet? xP
Sora lowered his gaze to the floor, Leon being correct in his words. Yes, Roxas had gone through something much like this. "If somebody did, I wouldn't want to trouble them," he said softly, the anger momentarily gone from his voice. "I'm sure that they've got enough on their plate without my problems on top of their own."
xD What's he making? Burgers? Hot dogs?
After a few moments of silence, Leon spoke again. "Fine," he started. "I don't know what's going on in your head. Why don't you tell me?" Sora was acting...different. He wasn't the same person he had known before, and though he wasn't sure he liked the change, he wasn't going to say anything about that. "There's no way you could understand it," Sora said, his voice still hard. Leon had never gone though anything like this and hopefully he never would, for it was a very unpleasant situation. Even if Sora was upset with him for pressing this issue so much, he didn't hate his friend. He hated that he was right. Leon arched a brow, leaning on his arms as he sat at the table. "Really?" he asked. "I don't know the situation, but I bet you anything that somebody else in the room has gone through something similar in the past." He said this completely unaware that Roxas had gone through a situation much like Sora's. The man was simply guessing that with all the experience everyone had in the room with life, somebody had to be able to comprehend what Sora was feeling.

Yum! That's a good reason to be excited. =)
Though Leon was technically speaking to Roxas, he kept his eyes on Sora. "You're right," he started. "Except I don't think Sora is thinking over any of this. I think he's running from it. He's got to face it head on instead of being afraid of it." "You don't have the right to say what I'm doing or what I'm not doing," Sora finally snapped, voice tense. "You don't know what's going on inside my head." He ground his teeth together to stop himself from yelling his frustrations, the brunet under enough stress that he just wanted to scream.
Me too. xD I can only see about half the floor. That's good. =)
Leon's gaze hardened at Roxas' tone, the man changing to a defensive tone of voice. "That's only because Sora is being stubborn," he said, his gaze staying on Sora now. "If he would just let us help him, then this wouldn't be so dramatic." Though Sora was surprised at Roxas' tone, he couldn't focus on it for long, since Leon was staring at him again. His words...they really angered him. In a way, he knew that Leon was right, but he could only think of harsh words to say. Like for Leon to mind his own business and let Sora mope if he wanted to mope. To stop acting like he knew everything. To stop speaking about Sora as if he weren't there. But instead of saying those things, he bit down on his tongue and forced himself to be silent.
Another Red Light- David Hodges
It's alright, I was working on a project--cleaning my room. Dx It needed to be done, but now I actually feel sick to my stomach. xD So sitting...
Sora looked up at Roxas, a bit surprised to hear Roxas verbally stick up for him. He was grateful for it; Roxas seemed to be the only person in that room to understand that he didn't need anymore pressure, and he was already under enough stress. Leon was surprised at Roxas' tone of voice. What has him so worked up? he thought to himself. He left that thought alone and spoke to Roxas, his voice still as calm as ever. "Because talking things out will help him sort out his thoughts." Who are you to decide what helps me sort out my thoughts? Sora silently asked Leon, his stare back on the man across the room. I'll deal with them my own way. People need to stop forcing me into doing stuff; it's ticking me off more than they can possibly understand. The anger was boiling inside of Sora, and his friends were lucky that he hadn't had an outburst yet. Soon, though, it would come. It felt like he was going to snap, and he probably wouldn't be able to stop himself from lashing out at those he loved.
Holdin' On- Rascal Flatts
See ya later!
"C'mon, kid, what's eating at you?" Leon pressed, not letting up at Sora's silence. Eventually he would figure it out; it's not like Sora would just get up and leave. That wasn't the Sora he knew. However, he didn't know that Sora wasn't exactly the same person he had been before. Sora furrowed his brows further, still gazing at the ground. "Back off, Leon," he mumbled, though it wasn't loud enough for anybody at the table to hear. Roxas may have heard it, though. At this point, Sora didn't care; he just wanted to get out of this conversation. "Spill it, Sora," Leon said, his voice more forceful now. Sora wasn't doing himself any favors by keeping it bottled up inside. He needed to let go and just share what was going on. He had friends who wanted to help, but he wasn't letting them in. That was a serious problem in Leon's eyes.
