there's never enough.

[quiet, and he's staring at the wall of books for a few minutes before flopping down on a large couch. ah, the Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. now this is a book he could get into, and he's just. oh, wait, he's listening to it on tape. yup, just so he knows no one's sneaking up on... him. although the voice might drain anyone else out.]

I've never gone to see it before. What do you like about it?

[chosen-key.livejournal.com]

[slight shrug.]

I l-like rivers.

[dominatingly.livejournal.com]

Any reason in particular, or you just do?

[chosen-key.livejournal.com]

J-just d-d-do!

[dominatingly.livejournal.com]

[nods]

Nice to just like something. Who's your favorite character?

[chosen-key.livejournal.com]

... y-you're asking a l-lot of q-q-questions.

[dominatingly.livejournal.com]

Better than me asking why you look down, right?

[chosen-key.livejournal.com]

W-We b-broke up.

[blurts it out, looking at his feet.]

[dominatingly.livejournal.com]

[blink, staaaare]

You and Sunshine?

[chosen-key.livejournal.com]

[short nod, and he's not looking at him.]

[dominatingly.livejournal.com]

That doesn't make sense...

[says that more to himself than to Sora, frowning]

Why?

[chosen-key.livejournal.com]

F-fell in l-love with s-s-someone who n-needed h-h-him.

[nod. and now he's looking up. too calm.]

[dominatingly.livejournal.com]

After all that...

[oh someone's mad now]

That's not right.

[chosen-key.livejournal.com]

[he's grabbing his hand, panic rising in his throat.]

It's fine, really! I'm glad I could spend even a little bit of time with him, I'm glad I could have been a little happy with someone, even I don't deserve it--...

[... shit. he just said that out loud.]

[dominatingly.livejournal.com]

[has to remind himself not to clench fists because that'd hurt poor Sora's hand]

The only thing you don't deserve is to get tossed aside the moment something else happens along.

[chosen-key.livejournal.com]

[squeezes his eyes shut tight.]

... it's not his fault. Everyone falls in and out of love.

[dominatingly.livejournal.com]

I don't think that excuses it.

[chosen-key.livejournal.com]

[slight groan.]

[dominatingly.livejournal.com]

[tries to force some calmness]

...I'm sorry that happened, Sora. You don't deserve that.

[chosen-key.livejournal.com]

[glad when he's calmed, shoulders slumping.]

... it happens. I'm glad he's happy now, though.

[dominatingly.livejournal.com]

It shouldn't happen to someone like you. If anything you should get to be happy.

[chosen-key.livejournal.com]

[a sigh.]

... I will be, just. Not now.

[dominatingly.livejournal.com]

Still...

[hates that a Sora of all people is the one hurt here]

Just let me know if you need anything.

[chosen-key.livejournal.com]

[he nods, with a quiet sigh.]

I... I will.
