KH- Fast Food Madness!

Sora smiled weakly and moved the icepack a little bit, to another section of his arm. He winced when it landed on a soft spot.

 

Kairi bit her lip and looked down at her lap. She hoped things would get better.

 

Sora silently stared at his arm. He grimaced when he already saw a bruise forming. He didn't know if it was broken or not, so he probably should check on that...

 

Kairi closed her eyes and tried to calm herself. She was really upset, but she needed to hold herself together.

 

Sora slowly set the icepack down beside him and ran his hand over his arm, feeling for anything strange. Even though he felt pain everywhere, he was pretty sure that nothing was broken. At least he had one thing to be thankful for.

 

Kairi was really angry that someone hadn't salted down the sidewalks. Didn't anybody know that people would actually walk around today? She didn't understand how someone could've missed that. She didn't understand how she could've missed that. And then look what happened. "Stupid," she murmered quietly, her eyes still closed as her head stayed lowered.

 

"What's the matter?" Sora asked as he put the icepack back on his arm.

OOC: Gotta get off for a bit, I'll probably be back later!

 

Kairi opened her eyes, staring at her lap. She shook her head. "Nothing."

OOC: Okay. I have to get off in about 15 minutes, so I might not be here when you get back.

 

Sora shook his head. "That wasn't a "nothing". That was something." He looked at Kairi. "Kai, talk to me." His voice was soft and gentle.

OOC: Back for 1 second. Can't stay on though, and I won't be back tonight. D:

 

Kairi nibbled on her lip as she closed her eyes again. She was upset, and if she started getting wound up, she'd probably lose it. She didn't want to accidentally take it out on Sora, though. He had enough going on, and she didn't want to make it worse for him.

 

"Kairi," Sora said softly, putting down the icepack as he reached for her hand.

 

Kairi looked up, her eyes flitting to him. She bit down on her lip, blinking, her eyes having a trace of tears in them. She just didn't understand why this had to happen today, just when things were starting to get better.

 

"Kairi, please don't be sad." Sora plead, his bright blue eyes searching hers. "It's just pain; it'll go away. Everything's all right."

 

Kairi stopped biting her lip. She turned her head away. "I shouldn't have let you come with me, though. This wouldn't have happened if you stayed here." She should've known better than to let him come with her, especially because of the weather. Hadn't she realized that since they'd gotten so much snow that there'd be ice as well?

 

Sora shook his head and continued to stare at her with gentle eyes. "Kairi, please don't blame yourself for something you couldn't control. I was planning on going over to Roxas' house anyway, even if we didn't go together."

 

Kairi took in a breath. She could understand why Sora would've wanted to see Roxas, like before; they hadn't seen each other in a while, and they were practically brothers. "I just wish somebody would've salted down the sidewalks. I don't understand how someone could be so oblivious to the fact that some people actually do walk around today." She bit her lip to stop herself; she was going to start ranting if she didn't stop.

 

Sora coughed softly, preparing to break the news to Kairi. "I fell when we were on my sidewalk, so it was my responsibility to salt it." He recognized the fact that the other sidewalks shouldn't have been so icy, but he had fallen on his own property, so technically, it wasn't anyone else's fault.

 

Kairi looked up, and then started laughing, bringing a hand to her head in embarrassment. She felt really stupid now.

 

Sora smiled softly, surprised at Kairi's sudden laughter. He really wondered what she was thinking now.

 

Kairi bit her lip and stopped her soft laughter when she realized something. "...That doesn't excuse the public sidewalks. You could've slipped on those too, and I did last night. I could've easily re-lived that moment earlier." She looked down at her lap, thinking.
