Kairi jumped a bit, having been seated on her bed and flipping through pages of the journal. She looked up, saw the shadow of feet outside her door, and breathed deeply for a moment.

Riku...

He really didn't remember her. He didn't know her, nor did he seem to like her now... Hopefully Sora wouldn't be the same way, but by what everyone had been saying, at least he was here. She would still have the both of them, even if she had to earn Riku back. But even though he'd forgotten her voice, her name, her face... She didn't believe anything could take away his memory of her heart.

She stood from the bed, walking over and turning the knob. She waited, then opened it inward, peeking out from behind it to look at him.

And there he was.

He really didn't remember anything. Those impossibly aqua eyes settled on the redheaded girl without so much as a flicker of recognition. Her entire life had been erased from his memory-- everything-- and while some things didn't add up, for the most part he'd just become more attached to Sora.

"Kairi, right?" If he didn't know her, then why did her name fall from his lips so easily? "I'm Ri--" He stopped. She already knew him. There was no need for introductions, then. A hand came up to scratch the back of his head while his eyes fell to the floor. He'd never felt so desperate and foolish in his life until today. "... Can I come in? The castle is under siege from a large population of green terriers," he said seriously.

Kairi nodded at first, then winced when he almost introduced himself. So many years they'd been together with Sora, so many times they'd played on the island, so many days when Sora and Riku would protect her, and tell her they'd always be there...

To have him say that... was heartbreaking beyond comprehension.

She backed away from the door, opening it all the way and stepping over to her bed. She sat back down, her hands on her knees and her eyes sad as she stared at the floor. It was obvious she'd been crying only minutes ago. "Terriers, huh...? This place... really is weird, isn't it...?"

There was something... something so incredibly... he couldn't even put his finger on it, could barely swallow his apprehension as he followed Kairi inside and shut the door behind him. He kept his eyes hidden, knowing full well he was a huge fuckup and that he didn't want Kairi to read his thoughts like the rest of the women around here ( ... )
