I Want to be a Hero (Chp. 21)

            "Can we PLEASE stop getting distracted by people and just go see my sister, please?" I tug on Sora's arm, trying to pull him away from the next stranger he's going to drag me over to.

            "Hey, Cloud!" I growl and look to the perpetrator, feeling my body shiver as I spot the tall spiky haired blond leaning against a wall.

            "Nevermind. Let's go talk." I feel my insides melt as the blond opens his eyes.

            "Whatcha doin?" Donald aks, and I look over to Blair, who's wide eyes also turn to see mine. We share a silent 'oh my gooood' and turn back to Cloud.

            "I'll get him. This time we settle it. Me, and the one who embodies all the darkness in me."

            "DAMMIT" Blair and I turn away and comfort each other. I whisper and pat her on the back "I know he's cute, baby... He's just to emo for us, it'll never work out.."

            "ABOUT TIME YOU TWO ARE DATING." Mikoto huffs with her hands on her hips. I let out a small laugh and hold up my hands.

            "In his defense, I'm pretty creepy until you get to know me.. Plus Blair made him believe I already was dating someone for a while, and he had another love interest, a-and i'm not the prettiest blossom on the sakura tree...and yeah." Mikoto stares blankly at me.

            "Shut the hell up, dude. I have to try EXTRA hard to be cute around you because you're so down to earth it's adorable. GRAH. Modesty. Great, another thing I'll have to try out." Mikoto shakes me "stop being so perrrrrfecctt!" I roll my eyes, used to her doting on me to raise my self esteem. Hana used to do the same thing, pointing out things that she thought were nice and true about us to make us feel better. Though honestly, I'm not one for compliments. I do appreciate them, but really only from the people I love, and definitely not every second of the day or in bunches to the point where I'm being suffocated by them.

            "Just thought I would fill you in Mikoto, since it's hard for us to see each other right now." I pull my sister in a hug. "I should probably head over to Leon's now, though, catch up with the rest of the group. I love you sis, see you again soon, okay?" She squeezes tightly and smiles as she lets go.

            "Bye Rea!~" I grin and head out the door, starting through the Bailey. I hum to myself while also keeping an eye out for heartless, which is actually a lot harder than it sounds. I look down and reach into my pocket, trying to pull out my ipod, but accidentally getting it entangled with one of my hi-potions.

            "Fuck." I mumble as I feel my face collide with someone's back.

            "Hey! Watch where you're going, loser~" For a split second, I thought I might've bumped into Yuffie, but much to my surprise, standing in front of me was Cali.

            "Woah.. Cali! I-I'm glad to see you're doing alright on your own." The brunette smiles at me.

            "If you want to call it being alone.." She clutches her necklace tightly. I go to question but she shoves her hand in her pocket and holds out her fist. I stare at it for a second before curiously reaching my hand up and holding it underneath.

            "I saw this the other day, and I thought you might like to utilize it." I stare at the necklace in my hands, it was shaped like and orb and it almost seemed like it glowed.

            "Woah.. This is the same type or crystal Sora used to transform into his valor mode.. Where'd you get this?" She smiles at me.
