"Well that's... uh... good," Riku said in approval, hooking his thumbs in the loops on his pants and shrugging his shoulders up slightly, resisting the urge to fidget more than that as he stared out into the kitchen, dutifully keeping from meeting Sora's eyes. At least his blush wasn't spreading though, it was still just a slightly dignified flush to his normally pale face... it wasn't flooding up to his hairline and down to his chest.. at least, not yet. However, when he spared a tentative glance at Sora and saw him dutifully avoiding looking at him as well, it made him feel a little better that the brunet was probably a few shades redder than he was at the moment.

As Sora tried to further the conversation, however, Riku could feel his flush spread across his face at the implications of... 'the talk'. Coughing lightly and then running a hand through his hair nervously, he tried for a dismissive chuckle, and only got an obviously nervous and panicked one. "Eheh, right, talk," running a hand down his face in aggrivation, Riku tried to remind his panicked mind and his racing heart that he was supposed to be the one in charge, that he was the elder one, the one that had always been the 'leader'...

It kind of helped, actually. Gave him a real confidence boost.

"Sora, listen," Riku said with a sigh. "I'm sorry for you finding out like that, I wasn't ready and you probably weren't ready to even... think about it. But yeah... I like you," finally, Riku looked from where his gaze had been glued to the floor and looked at Sora, ignoring his own embarrassment for a minute to try and gauge Sora's reaction. It wasn't like he was expecting anything. Hell no, Sora was probably still shell shocked. He was just checking to make sure that... well... that Sora wasn't completely weirded out or anything. "A lot," he amended, resisting the urge to chew on his bottom lip to calm his nerves. Was this how Kairi had felt back in the museum? Crap, he had new respect for that girl.
