Sora's POV
"Yeah! We rocked the house!" Riku shouted, elated.
"Actually, we rocked the pavilion," corrected Roxas.
Axel laughed. "Yeah, Riku, it's a pavilion! Got it memorized?"
"Yeah, whatever," Riku replied sullenly.
We all laughed.
I need to talk to you, I gestured to Roxas. Yeah, we'd worked out our own kind of sign language when we were kids. He nodded and walked towards me. "What's up?" he asked.
"Have you seen Kairi? Oh, and Naminé?"
"Not yet. I think I spotted Naminé in the crowd, and where my angel goes, yours is sure to follow."
I raised my eyebrows at him.
"What?" he protested, an exaggerated look of innocence on his face.
"Do you really think I'm an angel?" a familiar voice said from behind us. Roxas jumped visibly. It was Naminé. She wore a plain white dress, with minimal jewellery. Not that I was paying much attention to what Roxas' "angel" was wearing. I was more focused on Kairi. She wore a dress which was mostly pink, with black designs all over it. At the bottom corner was a white heart with a black outline. She looked ah-MAZING.
"Um…uh…" Roxas floundered.
Naminé giggled and grabbed his arm. "Come on, I wanna hear all about you thinking I'm an angel!"
Roxas had the decency to blush a little.
I grinned at my brother's stricken look. Kairi moved next to me and tapped my arm. "Can we talk?" she asked in that fantastic voice of hers.
"Uh, sure.
"What's up?" I asked Kairi.
"Well, uh…" she began. For the first time since I'd met her, Kairi seemed speechless. "Why'd you pick that song to do tonight?"
"It was Roxas' idea. He really liked the song, and thought it'd be a good song to play."
"Is that the only reason?" Her voice had a strange intensity to it.
"Well…"
Kairi was staring at me.
"Well," I repeated, "Roxas wanted to express his feelings for your sister, and decided to use that song, and…"
"And?"
"And so did I," I blurted.
Kairi looked hurt. "You have feelings for my sister?"
"What? No, no, no!"
"Then what?"
"I wanted to use the song to say how I feel about you," I said quickly. There was a long pause.
"About…me?" She seemed breathless, for some reason.
"Yeah," I replied, glad that the truth was out.
Before I knew it, Kairi was kissing me. Completely out of nowhere. She just leaned in towards me and put her lips on mine.
She released the kiss and looked at me. She giggled.
"What?" I asked.
"Your face!" She pulled a mirror out of her bag and showed it to me.
Sure enough, I had an extremely goofy smile on my face. I stared at the mirror. The smile disappeared.
Kairi continued to laugh, even while she wrapped her arms around my neck. "Now I know why I fell for you."
"Why?" I wanted to know.
"Because you're so unique. There's no-one out there who's like you at all. Every other guy I've met fits into a stereotype. Nerds, jocks, musicians. But you… You're all of them."
"Maybe I'm schizophrenic," I joked.
She smiled and kissed me again.
Roxas' POV
I walked back to where Axel and Riku were play-fighting, holding Naminé's hand. She giggled suddenly.
"What's so funny?" I asked her.
She just pointed to behind Axel and Riku. I followed her finger to where she was pointing. My eyes bulged. It was Sora and Kairi, kissing like they never would again.
I stared at them. So did Naminé. Then we looked at each other. We couldn't hold it in any longer. We just burst out laughing.
Sora and Kairi jumped and let go of each other, looking at us bashfully. Then they spotted our hands. They started laughing too.
"Well, bro," I said to Sora, "I guess dreams really do come true."
He smiled at Kairi. "Yes they do."
