Merry Christmas

Kairi sat on her bed looking at all the presents she had gotten for Christmas: all the clothes she had gotten were in her dresser or her closet, her new Nintendo DS was on her bed, as was her new sketchbook, sketching pencils, and oil pastels. There were other things as well, all strewn across the floor and her desk, dresser, and vanity. She had gotten everything she wanted.  Well, almost everything… she looked at her bedside table with the picture of her and her two best friends, Riku and Sora.  She also had a picture of Sora sitting alone on the beach.  She had taken the picture on her birthday, in the middle of summer.  She giggled at the surprised look on his face and felt tears burn her eyes.  He had left for Paris the day after she took that picture.  She remembered the day exactly.  She had been standing with Sora and Riku at the train station.  As the train pulled up she had felt tears burn her eyes as Sora had hugged Riku then her.  He had hugged her tight then turned and walked toward the train before dropping his bags, turning around and running back for a moment. In that moment, he had wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her, quick and hard, on the cheek.  She knew how Sora felt about her, she just wasn’t sure: did she feel the same way?? Or did she not? And now that it was Christmas, there was only one thing that she wanted, and she wanted it more than anything in the world at that moment.  And that one thing was Sora.  Just then, the doorbell rang.  Kairi’s mother opened the door and said, “Oh, Hello, Riku.”
“Hi, Mrs. Vishoroe, Merry Christmas.” said Riku, “Is Kairi home?”
“Yes, she’s in her room.”
“Thanks.”
There was a knock on Kairi’s door. “Come in.” said Kairi quietly.  
“Hey, Kais.” Said Riku as he opened her door.
“Hey Riku.” Said Kairi.
“Merry Christmas” said Riku
“Yeah, same to you,” said Kairi sadly.
Riku tossed a box onto Kairi’s bed.  Kairi unwrapped the present and smiled sadly.  It was a teddy bear with a Santa outfit on, and when she squeezed its ear, it sang ‘Santa Claus is Comin’ to Town’ Kairi smiled sadly.  Riku sat down at the foot of her bed.
“I miss him too, Kais.” Said Riku gently.
“I know, I know.  Everybody does.  But the thing is…” Kairi’s voice cracked “…I don’t think anyone misses him as much as I do, Riku.” Tears burned Kairi’s eyes as she and Riku walked into the kitchen to make some Hot Chocolate.  The doorbell rang again and this time Riku answered it. “Hey, Selph.” He said as he opened the door.
“Hey Riku, Kairi.” Said Selphie, “Wassup?”  
“Nothing much, just having some hot chocolate.” Said Kairi, tears burning her eyes again as Mariah Carey’s ‘All I Want for Christmas is you’ came on the radio.
“Uh-oh…” said Selphie she walked over to Kairi and hugged her tight as Kairi began crying. Riku stood there awkwardly.  Then doorbell rang again.  “Kairi!” called her mother, “could you get that, please?”
“Sure, mom.” Said Kairi, wiping her eyes.  She turned and walked towards the door as her mother, father, Riku, and Selphie gathered around in the kitchen.  Riku wrapped his arm around Selphie’s shoulders and smiled down at her mischievously.  She looked up at him and smiled at him with the same expression. Riku and Selphie looked at Mr. and Mrs. Vishoroe and smiled.  Kairi’s parents smiled back.
When Kairi reached the door, she heard Selphie giggle and she turned around to see her mother, father, Riku and Selphie standing in the kitchen.  She stared at them for a moment then turned around as Selphie nodded and Riku gestured that she should open the door.  Kairi shrugged, thinking how weird her parents and friends were.  She put her hand on the doorknob and turned it.  She opened the door and took in the figure that stood there in the snow, with the grey button-down shirt, black slacks, and light and dark blue diamond print tie.  She didn’t recognize the boy until she looked at his face, and took in his intense blue eyes, his wonderful smile, and his brown, spiky hair.
“Merry Christmas.” Said the boy, smiling at her.
“SORA!” she screamed, as she threw herself into his waiting arms.  It was wonderful to feel their strength fold around her.  Sora picked her up off the ground and spun her around, laughing joyfully.  When he stopped spinning her around, he put her on the ground and hugged her tight.  Kairi’s eyes burned with tears of joy.  She looked up at him and he smiled down at her.  He had grown taller since he had left for Paris.  
“How long are you here for?” she asked him quietly, not wanting him to leave again.
“The rest of my life.” He replied happily.
“What?” Kairi asked, confused.
“I was in Paris for one semester, to see if I liked it there.”
“Did you?” asked Kairi, “I mean...did you like it in Paris?”
“No, I didn’t.”
“Why not?”
“Because,”
“Because why?” Kairi persisted.
“Because you weren’t there with me…” Sora whispered in Kairi’s ear.
Kairi looked up at him, confused.  Then she rested her head on Sora’s shoulder again.  
“Kairi…” Sora whispered in her ear.
“Yes?” Kairi whispered back.
“Kairi… I love you…so much.” Sora whispered.
Kairi looked up at him, her eyes full of emotion. “Really?” she whispered.
“Yes.” Sora whispered back. He smiled down at Kairi.  His head was dipping towards hers now, his lips growing ever closer to hers.  And then their lips met gently.  The kiss was over in a matter of seconds, but in those seconds, Kairi knew exactly how she felt about Sora.  
“Sora,” she whispered, “I love you too.”
Sora picked her up again, but instead of spinning her around, this time he kissed her, long and hard.

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!
