We Can’t Be Together - Honesty
“I love you.”
Sora couldn’t believe his ears. He just sat there, numb, in Riku’s arms, waiting to be waken from this prefect dream. To be wakened and realize Riku never loved him and that this moment would never happen, but…he didn’t wake up. What was wrong? Did he need to do something more, something to make this moment even more perfect before he had his heart broken again by the morning light?
Sora frowned and closed his eyes as he rested his head on Riku’s chest. And as he rapped his arms around Riku, gripping the back of his shirt, pulling himself as close as he could to him, thought
Please… don’t say anything more…just please… don’t break my heart again…please?
Tears welled behind Sora’s eyelids
Don’t say it isn’t right…don’t tell me we cant be together…don’t say that ever again, please don’t say it…
“Sora?”
Sora hiccupped involuntarily, surprised from Riku’s voice.
Worried, Riku pulled Sora from him by his shoulders to try and get a better look at him, “Sora? What’s wrong?”
Sora looked up to Riku as tears streamed down his face, “We can’t be together…”
“What?”
Sora shook his head and then lowered it as he began to whip away his tears with the side of his hand, “That’s…that’s what you said to me…” Sora looked back up to Riku with a pained expression and tear filled eyes, “When I told you that I loved you.”
Riku just stared at Sora with a saddened expression.
“How can that be?” Sora started, as he desperately searched Riku’s eyes, “How can you say you love me after saying that? How could you love me and say that? Why? How?”
Sora turned his head down as he hid his eyes in his arm and hiccupped. After trembling for a moment he continued, voice thick with tears.
“Is it sympathy? …Did you find it wrong then? …What about now? What changed?”
“Sora…no…I-”
“Then what is it!?” Sora turned back to Riku with angry tear filled eyes but Riku knew he was just hiding behind the anger, to hide his pain… Riku could see right through him.
“Don’t you dare bring up your guilt, Riku! I already told you I forgave you! There’s no reason for it now…and even if that was it--even if it was…!” Sora stopped and covered his eyes with both hands as he cried.
“Even it was guilt… If you felt that much guilt you would have been with me even if you didn’t love me!” Sora cried for a moment more before continuing, “I-I just don’t understand…” his voice lowered to almost a whisper, “What’s so wrong with it…” then he looked back to Riku, eyes clouded, as though he was in a daze, “What wrong with me?” Sora’s voice cracked at the end, eyes threatening to drop more tears.
“No, Sora…” unable to hold back any longer, Riku pulled Sora into his arms and held him as the boy sobbed, “There’s nothing wrong with it…or with you. And you were right, it was my guilt, and I was selfish in the way I dealt with it…”
Sora gripped Riku’s shirt and continued to soak it with his tears.
Riku sighed, “Sora, how can I prove to you that I love you? What do I have to do?”
Not getting a reply, Riku pulled Sora from him again and lifted his chin, “Please, Sora, I’m clueless…”
Sora stared into Riku’s eyes for a moment and then lowered them, as though in thought. Then after a moment Sora blinked away his remaining tears and then lifted his gaze to lock with Riku’s as he replied, “Make me yours.”
Riku stared at Sora, speechless.
“Sora…”
Sora smiled sadly, “Can’t do it, can you?”
Riku continued to gap at Sora. Sora turned his gaze from Riku, his hand dropped from Sora’s chin, as Sora moved to leave. Then as he was barely still in arms reach, Riku grabbed Sora’s wrist.
“No, your wrong.”
“Rik-”
Riku pulled Sora to him, rapping one arm firmly around his small waist, molding him against his body. Then freeing his other hand from Sora’s wrist, he gripped the back of Sora’s neck, lacing his finger’s through his hair as he seized it tightly, pulling Sora into a deep, long, sensual kiss.
There wasn’t a single undiscovered nook within Sora’s mouth by Riku’s tongue by the time they parted.
Sora’s legs were trembling beneath him from earth rattling kiss he and Riku had just shared. Sora believed the only reason his legs hadn’t dropped him was for grip Riku still had on him around his waist, pulling him beyond close to Riku’s hard body. The rest of his body began to tremble from the thought… Oh, how light headed Sora was feeling. His only wish was to lay his spinning head against Riku’s chest -if only Riku wasn’t still gripping his head back so impossibly tight.
Riku gazed at Sora, watching him weakly breath in and out, trying and catch his breath, lightly flushed, eyes glazed over and almost closed…
He’s so beautiful…
Riku thought as he pulled Sora even closer. A small moan escaped Sora’s mouth as he felt something hard press against him. Riku took the opportunity to pull Sora into another longing kiss. He plunged deeper and deeper into Sora’s wet cavern; Sora moaned again, from the pressure of the kiss, as he weakly fought with Riku’s tongue for dominance. Soon he gave in and let Riku take him over.
Without breaking the kiss, Riku slide his hands down Sora’s back and gripped the back of each of Sora’s thighs and lifted him off the ground. In response, Sora rapped his arms around the back of Riku’s neck and continued to kiss him back passionately.
Riku moved to the bed and gently plopped himself and Sora onto it. A small emph escaped Sora’s mouth as he was plopped down onto Riku’s pillow. Riku only smiled at him as he moved to straddle Sora’s lap.
“Now alas what you may think, Sora, I do love you.”
Sora only looked up into Riku’s eyes, blushing, as he felt Riku’s index finger trace a line down his neck to his tie as he slowly undid it.
“And I have no problem making love to you, that is-”
Riku paused to throw Sora’s tie away from them, it landed softly to the floor, where hopefully more clothing would soon join. Then as Riku turned back to his love, cupping his cheek gently, bringing his face close to Sora’s, he continued, “That is…if you’re ready for it.”
Sora couldn’t believe what he was hearing.
Is this really happening? Is Riku really going to make love…make love to me
Sora’s body trembled in response to his thoughts. Then after a moment Sora looked up, when he realized Riku hadn’t advanced any further.
“Riku?”
Then Sora realized Riku had wanted a reply.
if you ready for it…
“Hm?” Riku replied to Sora, titling his head slightly in curiosity, having so much patience with him, it melted Sora’s heart.
Sora shook his head to try and clear his thoughts enough to reply. Was he nervous? Yes. Was he scared? …yeah, he had to admit. Was he ready? …to be honest, Sora wasn’t really sure if he was. No…he wasn’t sure at all but… he wasn’t going to let a little thing like his innocence get in the way of his chance to be with Riku. No matter what Riku said now, Sora couldn’t be sure if he would feel the same tomorrow. No- Sora wouldn’t take the chance, he’s was going to make Riku fall in love with him --all of him, before tonight was over. He wouldn’t lose Riku -couldn’t, his heart couldn’t stand for it. He loved him so much-
Sora’s thoughts were cut from him when Riku’s lips met his in a soft kiss. After a moment he pulled back and looked to Sora, smiling sweetly.
“Hey…I thought I lost you there for a minute.” Riku said as he gently rubbed Sora’s cheek with his thumb.
“N-no, you didn’t I-…” Sora closed his eyes and took in a deep breath to calm himself, “…yes…”
“Yes?”
Sora opened his eyes to meet a confused gaze from Riku, “Yes, I’m ready. Riku, you claim to love me, now show me…take me…please Riku, fill me, I’m so empt-” Sora could say no more as Riku’s lips crashed against his in a very passionate kiss, which Sora felt left words unnecessary at this point, as he began to lose himself in the kiss and in the moment…
They acted as though there was no time to waste, as Sora rushed to undo the buttons at the top of Riku’s shirt and Riku moved quickly to pull Sora’s shirt out of his pants and unbutton it quickly starting from the bottom.
Sora only made it half way down Riku’s shirt, when Riku parted his shirt and began to lick and kiss up from his belly to his chest. Sora whimpered and laced his fingers through Riku’s silk hair. Then as Riku began to lick around Sora’s nipple, Sora thrusted up in response, moaning.
Riku only smirk and slowly wrapped his lips around Sora nipple,
-knock--knock- “Riku? Riku dear, phone for Sora.”
Riku lapped his tongue once more against Sora’s nipple, causing him to shiver in response, before lifting himself into a sitting position on Sora, continuing to straddle him.
“Who is it?” Riku called back to his mother.
Ohh Sora could feel how hard they both were through the thin fabric of their school pants, that separated them. Sora wished whoever was on the phone would just hang up so he and Riku could continue…
Sora moved his hands back up to Riku’s shirt and continued to unbutton it. Riku felt the tugging at his shit and when he looked to Sora and noticed what he was doing, only smiled, as he stroked one of Sora’s arms, waiting for his mother to reply.
“It’s Sora’s mother.”
Both Sora and Riku froze as they shared a knowing look of what would happen next, or…more so, what wouldn’t…
Riku sighed and took each of Sora’s frozen hands from his shirt and kissed each of them lovingly before placing them gently to Sora’s chest and slowly moving to get off the bed and go to the door.
Riku only cracked the door enough for his mother to see his not-so-thrilled face as he reached to receive the phone.
“Oh Rikuu.” Riku’s mom starting, lowering her voice so the phone wouldn’t pick her up, “I know Sora has only just gotten here and, knowing his mother, she probably wants him home but don’t look so down hun, you can just bring him over tomorrow or this weekend, for that matter….okay?” His mother asked, stroking his face gently with the side of her finger. Riku only nodded and with receiving the phone from his mother, closed his door gently and moved to the bed, where Sora was now sitting up with his feet dangling from the bed looking up to Riku with his beautiful sapphire eyes, shirt still completely unbutton with the exception of the very top one, which Riku had left earlier with the desire to move on…
Riku shook his head to clear away the memory and gave Sora a reassuring smile as he handed him the phone, “Here…”
Sora kept his eye’s locked with Riku’s as he took the phone and brought it to his ear, “H-hello…?”
“Sora?”
“Yeah, mom, it’s me.”
“Sora, honey, why didn‘t you tell me you were going to Riku‘s today? I was so worried, thank goodness Kairi mentioned you might have been there.”
“Sorry mom, it wasn‘t really planed, it just…sort of happened… ”
“It’s alright hun but I’m coming to pick you up.”
Sora’s eyes widened and he broke the lock of eyes with Riku, as he gripped the phone with both hands, “Huh? Wha-Why!?”
“Your grandparents have come over to see you, plus dinners almost ready.”
“B-but mom I--I already told Riku‘s mom I was staying for dinner and-and I just got here…”
“Sora Your grandparents came all the way done here to see you-”
They only live downtown…I don’t get what the big deal is… Sora thought with a frown as his mother went on,
“Now your coming home and that’s that! …I’ll be down in 5 minutes.”
Sora sighed, “Alright…see you then.” and with that Sora ended the call and placed the phone on the bed as he covered his face with both hands.
“Sora?”
“She‘ll be here in five minutes to pick me up…” Sora mumbled through his hands. Sora sighed and dropped his hands, looking up to Riku added, “My grandparents apparently want to see me and-” Sora sighed again in frustration as he put his head down and roughly laced his fingers through his own hair, gripping tightly, “I have no choice…”
Sora felt a hand touch his leg, “Hey…”
Sora looked ahead of him, lowering his hands, and found Riku kneeling in front of him, gazing up to him. It felt almost like de sha vu…
No…not de sha vu…that dream
Sora’s eyes widened
No-no I don’t want to wake up!
“Sor-”
Riku was cut off as Sora grabbed him by the back of his hair, pulling him into a desperate kiss. As Sora rapped his free arm around the back of Riku’s neck, he wonder briefly what would have been more disappointing; Waking up to find this had all been a dream? Or the fact that he had fallen for it…
As Riku’s arms began to drape around Sora’s waist, Sora began to feel more secure and the kiss grew more loving than desperate.
-Beep-Beep-
“Sora! Your mom’s here!” They heard Riku’s mom call from down the hall.
“That was no five minutes!” Sora called frustratedly as the kiss broke.
Riku laughed slightly as he stood up and pulled Sora to his feet by the arms that where, a moment ago, rapped around him.
Riku began to button down Sora’s shirt as he replied, “Yeah, that may have been the shortest five minutes in history but it does matter.” Riku looked back to Sora when he finish and ruffled his hair lovingly as he added, “Doesn’t matter, cuz we still need to get you ready.”
Sora fidgeted at first from the sign of affection but then frowned and closed the distance between him and Riku with a hug, “I…” what did he want to say?:
I love you
Do you love me?
What are we?
What’ll happen tomorrow? …is it just another day? Will you still love me?
-Beeep!-Beeeep!-
“Ohhh-I com’n already, okay?!” Sora yelled to no one as he pulled away from Riku and began to gather his things. Riku noticed a slight glistening in Sora’s eyes when he had pulled away from him and called him, “Hey, Sora?”
Sora turned as he pulled his bag onto his back, “Yeah?”
“Riku smiled at him, “I love you, and even though I can‘t prove it to you right now, by making love to you-” Sora blushed, as Riku went on, “You still believe me though…right?”
Sora stared at Riku for a moment and then lowered his head, shuffling g his feet, still blushing replied, “…Yeah” then he stopped shuffling his feet, feeling more confident, he lifted his head and added with a bright smile on his face, “Yeah, I do. I-”
Wait where they anything more than two friends in love?
Sora wanted to ask but…
“Love you too.” Riku finished with a smile.
He couldn’t…
Sora gave Riku a small wave from the doorway and left.
--
Sora fell onto his bed after his grandparents left.
Finally…they’re gone… Sora sighed now what…
Sora turned to his side and noticed his cell phone resting next to him. Sora’s eyes brightened, I know! I’ll call Kairi
Sora scurried into a sitting position, dialed the number, and waited. Kairi pick up on the third ring, “Hello?”
“Hey Kai, it’s me.”
“Oh, hey Sora Wait- hey tell me what happened today between you and Riku? You went over his house right? Did he change his mind? Did you-”
“Alright, Kairi! Chill with the 20 questions!”
They both laughed, and Sora went on, “Now I’ll tell you everything that happened today, all you have to do is sit there looking pretty and listen.”
“Sora you can’t even see-That doesn’t matter.” They giggled
“Alright, Sora, I get it, I’ll be quiet just-Tell Me What Happened Already!”
Sora laughed and proceeded to tell her everything that had happened today, starting from the kiss and ending where his mom had brought him home.
“I was really disappointed though…Why did you have to tell her where I was, Kai?” Sora said in a whinny tone, Kairi laughed
“Well for one, Sora, I really didn’t think you two would have been off doing that, and two, if I didn’t tell her, she would have sent the army looking for you on top of calling everyone in town. So all I did was save her time and you from embarrassment.”
“True…”
“But still, I don’t know, Sora. I was joking about the sleepover thing before but now-You really want it, don’t you?”
“Kairi!”
“Sora wants to get in Riku’s pants Sora wants to get in Riku’s-”
“Kairi Cut-It-Out!”
She giggled, he laughed. They continued to joke but then towards the end, when their laughter had faded Kairi asked, “Hey…Sora?”
“Yeah, Kairi?”
“Well…” Sora could see in his mind, Kairi biting her lip.
“What is it?”
“It’s just, you really haven’t said it…”
“Said what?”
Kairi hesitated before she replied, “Are you two dating now?”
“I…” Sora thought back through the days events. Riku never said it and Sora never asked…
“I don’t know…”
--
Riku stood in his room, looking out his window at the black night. It was almost midnight, but he still felt so restless.
There was so much left unsaid. When he had asked Sora to come over, he really did mean to talk to him, to tell him everything, but…”
“Make me yours.”
…but things turned out differently.
Riku sighed and shifted his fingers through his hair in frustration. He wanted to tell him, again, he was sorry for his betrayal. He wanted to let him now how, when, why he had fallen for him. How much it hurt…how good it felt. How much he didn’t deserve him, or have his affection returned. How none of that mattered now because Sora had forgiven him and Sora wanted him…Nothing mattered, nothing but Sora…
Riku looked to his cell, sitting on his nightstand, seeming to call to him.
I wonder if he’s fallen asleep yet…
Riku lifted and opened his phone. He hesitated but then dialed the familiar number.
He needed to hear his voice, he needed to talk to him, he needed-
“Hello?”
Sora…
“Hey…did I wake you?”
“No…no I was awake.”
Riku smiled, “Good.”
