I was surprised you were on that long. xD See you later!
"No!" Sora said aloud, sounding a bit more harsh than he meant. Even if this wasn't for real, he was having a hard time inflicting the damage. "It's not you, it's me," he said softly. "I'm being watched, and you could be too," he said. "You have to go to Roxas and Namine. When you're with them, safe and alone, I'll explain to all of you."
Sora swallowed hard, forcing his eyes closed. "We have to break up," he said softly, his voice sounding defeated. "I'm being forced to do this," he silently told her. "Please, just act like it's for real, but know that it's not."
The sound of happiness in Kairi's voice made Sora hesitate for a second. But he pushed through that fear and forced the words to leave his lips. "Kairi? We need to talk," he said, having a hard time starting the conversation. "Don't take anything I'm saying verbally to heart," he told her through his heart. "Please...just follow my lead, even if you don't understand."
Sora selected Kairi's name on the list and called her, putting the phone up to his ear. They needed to do this convincingly if Riku was going to make it out of this alive. The man had no clue that they could communicate silently, so he was definitely going to use that to his advantage.
Sora sighed and shook his head, furrowing his eyebrows tightly. For now, he had no choice but to obey the mysterious man. Riku's life was on the line; he couldn't take chances by not following orders. If he could make Kairi understand somehow...An idea suddenly came to mind and he picked up his phone, scrolling through his contacts.
Awesome. xD
"You must break up with your girlfriend." "What?!" Sora hissed in surprise, clenching his free hand into a fist. He couldn't do that--it would break both his and Kairi's hearts. Especially hers, because she wouldn't know what was going on... "You heard me," he said coolly. "Call her up and do it now; you have to separate yourself from those around you." "I..." Sora trailed off, his whine silencing. Anything he said could have been used as an excuse to hurt Riku, and he couldn't do that. But, Kairi... "Do it now or he dies. Call her." "W-wait!" Sora cried, but he was answered by a beeping on the other side. The man had hung up on him. The brunet threw his phone down on the couch beside him and curled his hands into light fists. I need to think this through before I can do anything...
Yeah, hopefully I'll be back around then.
At that moment, Sora felt his cell phone vibrate in his pocket. He pulled it out and flipped it open, not recognizing the phone number. He shrugged and put it to his ear anyway, figuring he'd know who was calling in a few moments. "Hello?" "Do you want to see Riku?" Sora blinked in surprise, both at the name and the creepy voice on the other side of the line. "Excuse me?" he asked in confusion. "I'm holding him hostage," the raspy voice responded. "I know who he is, and I know he's a Keyblade master of the Realm of Darkness." He paused, as if expecting Sora to say something. But when he didn't, he continued. "If you want to see him alive, you'll do what I say." Sora swallowed hard, all his joy from earlier forgotten. Riku...That man must have had him, because nobody else would know who he was or about the errands he was doing across the worlds. "What do you want?" Sora asked somberly, the teen gazing blankly in front of him.
Yup, we will. xD
Sora smiled gently at Kairi, catching the look in her eye. "Let's get started." A few days later... A few days after the food fight, Sora was just returning home from a fun day with Kairi, Roxas, and Namine. They had spent the day in the park, throwing Frisbee and having piggy-back ride races (which ended up tied this time). Sora sat himself down on the couch and looked out the window at the setting sun, a few chuckles leaving his lips. It had been such a fun day...
Then I'll get it started, but we won't get deep into it at all. xD
Sora smiled softly and gently released Kairi, the brunet lightly withdrawing from the hug. Of course he didn't want to let go, but it was something that needed to be done. After all, he doubt that Kairi's parents would want to come home and see that this had occurred in their house.
How much longer do you think you can be on? I was going to start it in like, one or two posts. xD
Sora smiled softly and took his hand off the back of Kairi's head, lightly setting it against her upper back. "We should really clean up," he insisted gently, now feeling like the responsible one. He was the one who had created the most mess, so he wouldn't feel right until it was all clean again.
That may be what I'll have to do, since I have no other ideas. xD
Sora chuckled softly, shaking his head. "No way," he repeated. Adorable or not, he definitely didn't want something like that being shown around to a lot of people, especially not Roxas, who would have found a way to get his hands on it.
Okie dokie. =) Now I just gotta think of a way to start it...
"I'm just glad you didn't have a camera on you," Sora confessed, a few chuckles leaving his lips. He knew that, like his embarrassing picture of Roxas, the picture of him on the floor covered in cookie dough would have always haunted him.
