Chapter Two The Friendship Grows

When we finally got back to our street Kairi showed me her house, which I was just seeing for the first time. I probably didn't notice it the first time since I was a little too preoccupied with feeling depressed about moving here. It was a medium-sized light blue house with a nice big porch and several large plants sitting on it. It had a homey feeling to say the least.

"Come on I want to show you my room. It's really cool my mom and I redecorated it just last week." Kairi said as she grabbed me by the hand a started to drag me into her house. "Hurry up!"

"I don't know my mom might get upset if I'm late," I sheepishly replied.

"It wont take too long besides won't your mom be happy that you were hanging out with your knew friend and neighbor?" Kairi got me in to her house and began pulling my up the stairs to her room. Geez for a girl she sure is strong. Boy do I feel bad for anyone who tries to pick a fight with her. We got about halfway up the stairs before a woman with short dark brown hair and emerald green eyes appeared at the top.

"Oh, Kairi you're home. And who is this handsome young man." I could feel my face heat up when she said that, and I was sure that it had turned red by now.

"Hi mom." Kairi went up and kissed her mother on the cheek, "This is Sora he just moved into the house across the street."

"Hello Sora it's nice to meet you. I'm Kairi's mom but you can just call me May." She started to walk away but then she turned around, "Oh and before I forget I met your mom earlier today and invited her an you over for dinner."

"Thank you very much, just got in today so there isn't any food in the house yet. Mom was going to spend all day tomorrow shopping."

"It really wasn't any trouble dear. I like having company over." And with that May went back to doing whatever it was she was doing before we got there.

"Yay, you get to stay for dinner. You'll really like it Sora my mom is a really good cook." Kairi said as we continued to head to her room. "Riku is also going to have dinner here. He eats with us almost everyday. I don't know what it is, maybe aunt Sarah doesn't like to cook." She laughed softly. I liked her laugh it was soft and warm, and when you heard it you just had to laugh too.

"That's cool but won't your mom mind cooking for so many people, and when your dad gets' home." t

Kairi seemed to go silent. This was the first time I had seem her with a serious look on her face. "My dad won't be coming to dinner, Sora. He died in a car crash when I was two."

Wow good going Sora could you be anymore inconsiderate. "I'm sorry I didn't know. Are you ok?"

"Ya. I'm fine. It's ok… So you want to see my room know?" Well that was a fast change in her mood. I took it as a hint that she didn't want to talk about it.

"Sure let's go."

--------------------------------------------------------------- -------------

After Kairi had finished with giving me the grand tour of her bedroom we went downstairs to the living room, where May and my mom were sitting on the couch talking about something that I probably couldn't care less about. And Riku was sitting on the lazy-boy watching something on TV. He turned away from the TV when he saw us come in.

"Finally, what the hell took you guys so long up there, I'm starving," I wasn't sure but I think Riku just winked at me.

Hey it wasn't my fault Kairi just had to show me everything in her room. And boy does she have a lot of stuff." Riku and I exchanged glances that said Lots of boring girl stuff. That was the first time that I really looked into Riku's eyes. They were deep aquamarine eyes. And staring into them was like staring into the ocean calm and cool but with something hidden deep inside. He looks kinda cute sitting there like that. Did I just think that? I tried to put that thought off into some corner of my mind.

"Kairi you shouldn't torture the poor guy you just met him. I thought you were annoying only to people you liked." Riku gave Kairi that same sexy smirk that he had given to me earlier that day. What is it about Riku that makes me keep having these thoughts in my head?

"Shut up Riku! I don't like him I just met the guy besides we're just friends." I could tell that she was getting a little annoyed with her cousin.

Riku got up and walked over to me and quietly just so that only I could hear him, "Fine, then I'll take him." He gave me a little wink after that and headed into the kitchen.

Something about what he just said seemed to stir something up inside me. I could feel myself going red. What was it about him? I had just met the guy a few hours ago and now he was making me blush. Does that mean I like him. God it's just so confusing. He was probably kidding or he just wanted to see how I'd react.

"Ok how about we sit down to eat." May got up from the couch and headed to the kitchen, with my mom right behind her.

"Mmmm, whatever it is it smells delightful,'" Mom said softly sniffing the air.

Meanwhile I was left there standing in the living room still thinking about Riku's comment. Until Kairi grabbed my arm and pulled me into the kitchen and bringing me back to consciousness.

"Come one you lazy bum stop spacing out and come eat." She almost dislocated my shoulder. Damn I knew she was strong. Ouch!

--------------------------------------------------------------- -----------

Dinner was great Riku's foot seemed to "accidentally" rub against mine very slowly several times. I dismissed it as nothing but I couldn't help but wonder whether it really was an accident or if he was really trying to hit on me. Oh well. After dinner mom went back to our house with May. They said that they would straighten out the house a little more, so we just hung out at Kairi's for while they were working. Kairi was sitting on the couch read one of her manga books Fushigi something or other. Meanwhile Riku and I were in the back yard sitting on the lawn staring up at the sky. Well actually I was staring at the sky and Riku was staring at me.

I turned to him, "What? Do I have something on my face?" Giving him a bewildered look.

"No your face is just perfect." His voice had softened and it seemed more dare I say it loving. "Boy it's hot out here tonight." He said as he took off his shirt.

I was boiling up too so without thinking I took my shirt off too. "Ya, the temperature must be well over ninety." I looked over at Riku and for the first time noticed how well built he looked, six-pack and all. Not that I have a bad built but I don't have a six-pack. It's more of a four-pack but whatever. He was also a little bit tanner than I was. Once again it seemed that he had his eyes glued to me.

"What are you staring at?" Looking at him questioningly.

"You." He replied, as he looked me straight in the eye. Then he did something that I totally hadn't anticipated. He put his hand on my cheek and slowly he leaned in and pressed his lips to mine. Surprisingly I didn't pull away instead I lead into the kiss too. His were a little rough and a bit chapped but that didn't matter. Riku now put his other hand around my neck and pulled me closer. What was I doing I wasn't gay? I wasn't even sure of what I was doing at the time. I was just lost in the moment.
