-Chapter 01-
Sora couldn't remember when he'd been more nervous. Today was the day
he was going to propose. He'd been working up his courage to do so all
week, and today, he had decided, was the day he was finally going to
take the plunge.
He gazed at the picture of himself, Kairi, and Riku that he kept in
the corner of his bedroom mirror.
"I love you," he said to it, not seeing Kairi, who was standing in the
doorway, "and today, I'll ask you to marry me."
"Yes."
Sora turned to see Kairi standing there with a huge grin on her
face. "Huh? How long have you been standing there?"
"Just long enough to hear what you were planning to do," Kairi
laughed. "Oh, Sora. Do you mean that? You really want to get married?"
"Well, yeah, but..." Sora hedged, not sure what to say at this point.
"I can't wait to tell Riku," Kairi cheered, throwing her arms around
him. "I bet he'll be so happy for us."
"Um, Kairi, about Riku..."
"What about me?"
Sora spun around in surprise. "Doesn't anyone knock around this
place?!" he asked, sharply.
"Sorry to intrude," Riku whispered, his voice laced with dark
pain. "I'll get out of your lives, then, shall I?" He turned and
departed, leaving Sora looking quite stunned.
"Riku..." Sora began.
Kairi grabbed his hand. "He'll be fine," she told him, "come on, we
have to tell everyone about the wedding."
"But..." Sora tried, again, as Kairi dragged him into the living room.
"Guess what, everyone," she called out, "Sora and I are getting
married!"
"Really," Sora's mother hugged her. "Well, I never thought I'd see my
little Sora settle down. I was afraid he'd go off on some new
adventure. I was so worried while he and Riku were gone. To look at
them, you'd never guess Riku was the younger one, would you?"
"Um, no..." Kairi admitted. "He's always seemed older. Especially..."
"It's okay, dear," Sora's mother smiled. "I have pictures of when Riku
looked older. Quite a striking gentleman, don't you think."
"Yes," Kairi admitted. "I was wondering, were they always...?"
"Rivals," Sora's mother nodded, "When I brought Riku home with me,
Sora was convinced that I was planning to replace him. So he tried all
sorts of things to get Riku into trouble. I must confess that at
first, I did yell at poor Riku. But Riku was always patient, and never
called Sora on it."
"So how did you find out the truth?"
"I caught Sora at it. I told him that he had nothing to fear, and that
I loved them both. Then I told him to apologize to Riku."
"But surely you must have known that a baby couldn't be doing all
those things."
"A baby?" Sora's mother raised an eyebrow. "Didn't they ever tell you?
I found Riku a year before you met them. He was lying on my front
lawn, completely..." she blushed on Riku's behalf, and let the
sentence die in her mouth. "Well, my heart went out to him. And when
he woke up, he latched onto Sora almost immediately. So I decided take
him in until we could find his parents."
"He's adopted, then?" Kairi asked.
"No," Sora's mother replied. "I asked him, but he refused, Though he
never said why. I guess he wanted to keep his parents' last name in
their memory, but so far I've never found out what it is. So he's just
dear Riku."
Kairi smiled thoughtfully at this. "I'll ask him," she decided.

Outside the window, Riku turned from the spot where he'd been
eavesdropping. He remembered the day he'd first come to live with
Sora. He had been playing in the water the day before when he'd seen a
boy who was just a little older than he was playing in the waves. He
had watched him for a little while, and his heart leapt like a
dolphin.
