Trusting A Stranger (Soriku)

Part Nine: KAIRI!

     My eyes fluttered open slowly. I sleepily look up at Riku, whom of which was sleeping peacefully. I yawned and cuddled up closer to him. I smiled and fell back to sleep.

      "Sora?" Riku's soft voice sounded frightened. I opened my eyes quickly and met my eyes with his. They were full of tears begging to fall, and they showed me that Riku was afraid. "What's the matter? Are you okay?" I wiped a tear off his face carefully. "I-I had a nightmare..I know it's kinda pathetic to cry over a nightmare but, I am." He sobbed softly. "It's not pathetic, to be honest, I cry when I have a nightmare sometimes too." I smiled, trying to cheer him up. "I didn't know what got to me..I'm sorry for waking you." Riku apologized while wiping tears off his face. "Don't be sorry. I understand. Trust me, I have a lot of nightmares." I giggled and Riku softly giggled along. I stood up with Riku and walked along the ocean with him.

     Riku suddenly looked up at the stars. "Let me tell you something about the stars, they are all other worlds, looking down on us, making sure all the others are safe." Riku smiles and puts his hand on my cheek. I reached up and held his hand. Riku leans in and kisses me. "I'm glad you and I met." I blushed while hugging him close. "Me too." Riku moved my hair out of my face to look at my eyes. Suddenly, we hear a loud frightened scream, and we recognized who screamed. "KAIRI!!" Riku yells and runs towards where he heard her. I ran right next to him, worrying about Kairi.
