RP Log #4 // Out & About [ Open, Meant for Sora ]

Jan 02, 2007 19:48

It was far too cold to be walking around out in the snow for the hell of it, so Riku waited inside a cafe at a small table near one of the corners-- furthest from the door. It was well heated inside, but he didn't want to be anywhere near the door and the winter chill outside with it. That seemed to be the popular idea among customers, as most were ( Read more... )

Sora nearly growled when the voice interrupted them making Riku stop the kisses he was giving but his sanity seems to snap back when something on the table explodes. "Wow!" He jumps in surprise taking his hand away looking over his shoulder at the waitress finally realizing she was there and what he was doing. His own face now turning red. "Um... must of been a loose spring...w-we'll... have the check and take that to go now..." He tries, praying the waitress didn't freak out over the napkin holder.

At first she was stunned silent looking a little annoyed. "So sorry boy, those things are just ancient. A spring must of..." She tried to smooth things over and seemed to go with Sora's story but didn't sound opposed to them leaving to take their date else where. "I'll get right on that."

She hurried off taking their food to wrap it and Sora let out a relieved breath. "Riku, you okay? She didn't seem to notice or... maybe we should just leave the money and go." He bite his lower lip catching site of Riku's red ear, the boy was blushing hard. "You're going to pop a blood vessel in your cheeks at this rate." He tried hard not to laugh since they could of gotten into a lot of trouble had the waitress not wanted them to leave so badly.

"Let's just go. I'm not that hungry," Riku said, pulling his wallet from his pocket and quickly setting money at the end of the table before ushering Sora out of the booth so they could get the hell out of there.

Sora slips out of the booth following Riku out and not looking back. He worried Riku was really upset this time, maybe he wasn't ready for to be touched that way? Maybe he was mad Sora set his power off or just mad at Sora for the all around direction things went. "Riku... you okay...?" His own face was still a little flushed from the touching and slight thrill of everything that just happened. Once again he slips in front of the larger boy and stops him from walking. "Want to just go back to the dorm...?" He offers softly, his voice slightly pleading for Riku not to be mad at him.

Riku stopped, but didn't do much else at first. "Yeah," was all he really said before insistingly starting foreward again.

He was frusterated. He knew that much... but at what was a mess of personal and general aggravation in his head. Neither of which he really cared to talk about. There was a dull throb in his head already growing from the still-burning (and not-fading-fast-enough) heat in his face, which he still seemed to be self-conscious about and rubbing at it as if that would make the red go away any faster.

Sora felt his pleas fall on dead ears since Riku was still mad. He moves to reach out and take his arm but stops himself since touching seemed to just get him more trouble. "Okay..." He walks quietly beside Riku looking over now and again looking like he was going to say something but just stopping and looking down at his hands again. Eventually some words slip out of him softly. "I'm sorry I ruined our date...I should of stopped, I'm a jerk." The scolded looking boy slipped his hands into his pockets.

"Don't."

Riku didn't want to hear that, and that was clear in his tone. He really wasn't certain what to say, but he was fairly certain that that may have been a good thing. He didn't much feel like ranting in the middle of the street. And Sora didn't need that either, even if it was only to yell mostly at himself.

So he stayed quiet, lowering his head a bit to peer more at the sidewalk and he walked.

"W-what...? Don't what... I wont..." Sora says not really caring what he's agreeing to but thinking it had something to do with what he'd done at the restaurant. "I wont anymore..." He frowns at Riku glad they were getting closer to campus as his throat started feeling sore again and his heart felt like it dropped to his stomach feeling slightly rejected.

Riku sighed softly, it almost sounded impatient, but he stopped and turned to face Sora. He didn't even know what he was agreeing not to do. "Don't blame yourself!" he said, a little sharper than he'd intended.

He noticed automatically and shut his eyes a bit, forcing a breath through his nose before shaking his head and starting foreward again. 'Way to go. That's going to make him feel better,' he thought.

"R-Riku..." Sora says, the blue eyes widening a bit in surprise when the boy's voice raised at him. This just made Sora believe he was in deeper trouble. "Okay... but..." He decides to stop talking for now, the rest of the way he remained silent. Holding the door open for them when they reached the lobby of their dorm building and makes his way to the elevator.

Riku paused in the doorway, frowning at the ground for a moment. "Um... you just... go on ahead. I'm gonna..." he trailed off, jerking his thumb back behind him, trying to indicate he was just going to find some place to think to himself.

It didn't quite come out so he simply turned to leave instead.

'Sorry,' he thought, though that refused to come out aloud either.

Sora felt a small pain in his chest when Riku started running off. "You don't have to worry about me doing anything..." His hand reached out again but fell to his side thinking Riku would take any contact as a contradiction to his words, didn't want Riku to be scared of him doing anything, he didn't mean to scare Riku off.

Great... He felt something stinging his eyes and shook his head, "Sorry Riku." He says a little shakily as he tries to keep his pitch under control and turns his face away when the doors to elevator open.

Riku stopped in mid-stride after a couple of minutes, letting his arms hang at his side briefly before putting a hand to his forehead. "What am I doing?" he asked himself aloud.

He couldn't just up and leave Sora like that. Not only had he fucked up their first date, he'd thrown his boyfriend's good mood down in the dumps. That's not what a relationship is supposed to be. The least he could do was apologize... at the very least. Decidedly, he turned back 'round and started at a fast-paced walk towards the dorm building before growing into a jog.

When he was inside, he stopped at their door, hoping Sora was in there. He opened the door slowly, quietly...

"Sora...?"

Sora had just made it to the room himself and was sitting on his bed looking down at his shoes, willing himself to at least take them off so he can curl up in bed and stop his eyes from tearing.

His head snapped up when he heard Riku's voice and quietly rubbed his eyes to brush away anything that managed to slip out. "Y-yeah?" He answers, trying to keep his voice level but he heard it crack and the words come out in a whimper. His mind scolding him for it he take a deep breath to calm himself and places his hands back on the bed beside him before looking up at Riku with a forced smile. "That was fast..." He breaths out the words along with his held breath.

Riku snorted almost silently before stepping over to Sora and kneeling infront of him. He hesitated a moment before speaking. "I'm sorry," he said, right out but genuine.

"I didn't mean to go off on you. I was just..." he paused to sigh, "I was just frusterated."

Sora's eyes widened when Riku came closer and knelt before him. Usually he was the one there telling Riku Sora, even when they were kids. Eventually the shock wore off registering what was being told to him. "It's okay..." He said sounding surprised.

"Frustrated... about what? About what I did...?" The smaller boy says in the same gentle he used when he tried to get Riku to tell him what was wrong. Even as kids when Riku'd run away from home and sneak in his window in the dead of night, he'd have to fight to get any information from him. Fight through all the 'I'm fine. It's nothing. Shut up and go back to sleep!' His eyes more determined than his voice looking ready to go threw that fight again.

Riku shook his head. "No... It's not that," he said.

"But don't worry about it, okay?"

Giving him a half-smile, he stood back up, thinking he was going to get away with just that.
