Chapter two: Dinner's at Riku's!

 

That day Riku went home, nervous, and excited. Had he just offered to bring a girl home with him? What would his parents say?

 

I can imagine mom `Oh Riku you finally have a girlfriend!' or my dad: `now son, don't do anything wrong with her, and make sure her parents know, I don't want any trouble'. Heh. I'll make it threw.

 

Riku got into his new Silver Mustang he was only so lucky to get from his parents. He drove a bit over the speed limit one handed paying attention to nothing. His music playing `Panic! At the Disco's `London Beckoned songs about money by machines'. He sung along quietly. He had a nice voice. But he rarely actually sung in front of people. Arriving at his home, it was simple. White, Two windows on top; one window on the bottom, and a wooden door.

 

Walking in he continued humming the song as he entered the house.

 

“Riku! Welcome home!”

 

Found Mom

 

“Hey mom” he smiled hugging her.

 

His mom was a good 3 inches shorter then him. She had Stunning sapphire eyes and silver hair.

 

“How was your day?” She asked happily as she walked into the kitchen. Tossing his bag aside he followed, hands in pockets.

 

“It was...good” he hesitated on what word to use.

 

“Sure doesn't sound like it was a good day…OH! Did you meet the new girl? I met her and her parents yesterday” She smiled

 

“Yesterday?”

 

They were here yesterday?

 

“Yes, yesterday. They came around midday, you were in school. They were all very sweet. They have a huge house. And their daughter, what's her name…umm…Kairi?” She guessed her name, wrong or course.

 

“Hikari, Kairi's the girl across the street” He informed as he leaned against the counter.

 

“Oh yes. Well she was very, very sweet. She actually took me threw their house. She looked about your age. Did you meet her at school today?”

 

Asking a lot of questions….

 

“Yes I did. She's in 2 of my classes” Riku sighed.

 

Better now then ever

 

As his mom continued making a cheese cake Riku opened his mouth to speak.

 

“Tomorrow, you know how I and the others are going to the Winter Festival?”

 

“Yes”

 

“Well Hikari was invited, and there wasn't enough room in Leon's Van for all of us, two people had to stay out, I'm the only other who could drive and doesn't have a girlfriend, so I'm stuck taking her with me” He started.

 

His mother, he could already tell, knew what was coming next.

 

“And since it gets dark around an hour after I get home, I offered just to take her home, she didn't want me coming over to her…mansion...to pick her up…” He sighed as he finished.

 

She finished and put the cheese cake in the fridge. “Yeah, that's fine! No one will be home though so—“He cut her off.

 

“Mom I won't do anything, I don't like her that way. It just happened to work like this” he explained.

 

She smiled and nodded. “Your father will be home late tonight so don't expect him” She smiled, oddly, she seemed excited

“Mom…” Riku looked very curious now. “Who's coming over?”?

 

~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~ *~*

 

“So how was school?” a wise voice spoke

 

“Great, No one had suspicions. This one boy, Sora, Heard about the legend and wouldn't stop talking about it, it was cute” Hikari spoke

 

“Hikari, I'm getting that there's someone who caught your eye” this was a motherly voice

 

“Um…” Hikari blushed.

 

“Hikari, you know you can't get with any boy, no matter what.” The Wise voice was more stressful.

 

“I know…but tomorrow night, my new friends invited me to go to the Winter Festival with them. There will be eight people there. And there wasn't enough room in this one guys van for us all, so I am stuck with this boy who can drive, he offered that I just come home with him because within 30 minuets we would be leaving for the festival” She shortened the time period. She was happy they couldn't see threw her lies.

 

Please, please just say ok and let me go

 

“Hikari” he father (the Wise voice) Sighed, “This is the boy you like?”

 

“No, he was just different. I mean yes he's the one taking me with him…I mean”

 

Great

 

“We get it darling, it's ok, you can go with him, but nothing serious.” Her mother's soft voice spoke

 

Her father cleared his throat, he didn't approve, but her mother gave him a glance that he didn't comment. “Hikari if you come home and we hint that—“

 

“Father, I'll be fine”

 

He sighed. “Yes.”

 

“Well dear we have a surprise for you” her mother smiled.

 

Hikari's eyes lit up like a child on Christmas.

 

“Tonight we are going to this boy's home to eat with them. His mother asked us over. So we shall talk about it tonight” Her mother announced happily.

 

Hikari couldn't help but laugh happily. “I'll go get ready” Hikari said leaving the library and going up the stairs to her room

 

“She's so happy, she's found love” her mother said calmly

 

“It's to bad, she won't be able to have him” Her father sighed.

 

Hikari was in her room brushing her hair and making herself look more presentable and put a white rose in her hair and smiled showing the pointed fangs fully now. “I can't wait” She smiled. She had been trained not to smile fully; she rarely showed her fangs at all, because they were always there.

 

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ *~*~

 

Riku didn't bother about getting read. He just went upstairs and laid on his bed tiredly. His room was the normal size, and square. He had a closet with sliding doors that he somehow got shut. His wood paneled floor was somewhat clean; you could walk across it, only because everything was pushed to the sides. His desk sat against the window in the front, papers every where on it including a desk lamp, the small Paper waste basket overflowed with many objects. Allot of paper. His bed was a full bed. Sheets were white, he only had one loose comforter on it which was blue with dark blue vines on it. His grandmother gave it to him for Christmas. He lay, thinking about Her. Sure she was cute, mesmerizing voice, beautiful eyes, and perfect figure.

 

I don't like her. It's just because it was her first day, I paid more attention. But then again, her walk; so fast, but graceful. And…how did she know who I was before my hand had even moved? She seemed to take some interest in Sora's stories.

 

“Riku?” His mom called up

 

“Yeah?” He answered rolling over, his head in his pillow.

 

“Why don't you call over one of your friends to join us? Then it won't just be you and Hikari, I can imagine that being awkward”

 

Thank you so much mom

 

“ok!” He called down and got up. Leaving his room and back downstairs into the living room which he grabbed his very back-pack and came upstairs. Digging threw he found his cell phone. Normally he keeps it in his pocket but today the silver flip phone was discovered by a teacher and it had to be put away. This was the only reason he knew Sora's number, it was programmed in the phone. Dialing and calling he laid back on his bed.

 

“Sora? Hey you want to come over for dinner? My parents are having Hikari's family over, my mom thinks it would be awkward for me and her so she said I could invite a friend over” He smiled, relived he could bring someone over, and who not then his best friend and rival?

 

He smiled, indicating that Sora indeed could come over.

 

“Cool, see ya” He Spoke flipping the phone shut. Setting it on his night stand next to his bed he yawned, stretched, and got up to see his mother in front of him and he fell back.

 

“Mom?”

 

“Honey you look a bit thrashed, dress in something more…presentable. And, who's coming over?”

Riku sighed. He didn't want to change shirts. “Sora” He answered

 

His mom smiled. “Great! The boy right down the street?”

 

He nodded

 

“Good then you three can show her around.” His mother left the room excited and getting herself ready.

 

Riku got up and rummaged threw his closet looking for a more `presentable' shirt. He just decided to put on a white T shirt and he called it good. Laying back down he felt himself slowly drifting onto a well deserved rest. The last thing on his mind was Hikari and her golden eyes

 

He was running away, he felt scared, but determined. He looked behind him, he saw a pack of wolves. But they all stopped and howled a calling howl; Calling for someone. He stopped and looked at them, then, someone was behind him. He looked to find her perfect figure. Wearing the same outfit she had worn, accompanied by a white flowing cape. She took down her hood. Her eyes were gold, but stared at him in hunger. She looked though like she was trying to control himself.

 

“He's so cute when he's sleeping” this voice was familiar.

 

“He looks confused” this voice was less familiar, but very, very calm, and warm, very mesmerizing. He groaned as he opened his eyes to a pair of cobalt blue, and a pair of gold. “Sora, Hikari?”

 

Hikari smiled as Sora spoke. “Finally, we've been staring at you for the last 10 minuets. You were knocked out” Sora smiled

 

“What were you dreaming?” her curious voice now asked

 

Riku looked a bit confused. “How did you know I was dreaming?” he asked.

 

“Your expressions” She quickly answered, she almost seemed like she had made a mistake.

 

“And I don't remember” he lied sitting up. Hikari caught the lie, she didn't say anything though.

 

“your mother is nice by the way” Hikari smiled as she stood up as Riku did.

 

“Lauren is fun to be around” Sora piped in. Riku stared skeptically at them.

 

“Anyway” He changed the subject as Lauren came up. “Come on kids it's time to eat” She announced and came down the stairs followed by the three teens.

 

Taking seats, Lauren sat across from Mr. and Mrs. Dessier as Hikari sat next to her mother, Riku sat next to his mother, which made him across from Hikari, and Sora sat down now across from Mr. Dessier. For dinner the aroma of baked potatoes and steak, salad and cheese cake filled the air.

 

“Smells lovely Mrs. Land” Hikari smiled as she looked at the food in front of her.

 

“Oh, dear call me Lauren, same with you both” she said indicating to the Dessier parents. They smiled and nodded.

 

“You may call me Serena” Mrs. Dessier spoke. “Call me Evan” Mr. Dessier introduced. Both parents looked very, very young, in their early thirties at least, but Hikari was 15, giving the wrong impression. But no one said anything. They conversed quietly, Sora telling the tale of the `White Vampire' Evan and Serena looked like Hikari did, Mildly interested, and both found it cute. Hikari wasn't talking but watching Riku who was eating pretty fast.

 

“Are you ok?” She asked as she ate savoring each bite like her last

 

Riku looked up. “Huh? Oh, yeah I'm fine. Just thinking” He continued eating though now glancing at her as she continued to watch then drank some of the refreshing milk.

 

“What's on your mind?” She asked as she heard Sora explaining tomorrow night to both parents. Riku apparently heard the conversation to, because his answer was a lie.

 

“Tomorrow night, at the festival” he smiled reassuringly.

 

“I'm excited for it. I have never been to anything like that. “She smiled as she became half way done with her dinner

 

Riku finished. “Oh you should love it, it's fun there's karaoke, Rides, games, and I also hear it's suppose to snow” He smiled getting up with his plate. To his surprise, Hikari's plate was empty, had she eaten it all?

 

“Umm…” he started surprised. “I'll take your plate” He said out of Manners. She shook her head.

 

“I'll come with” She smiled getting up and following him into the nice sized kitchen, white tiled, white cabinets, light blue walls, lace covering the small windows. Riku set his plate in the sink as Hikari copied.

 

“Ok how did you do that?”

 

“Do what?”

 

“Eat so fast, you were eating so slow then all of a sudden everything was gone”

 

Hikari looked confused. “I...have no clue what your talking about” she acted dumbfounded. Riku bought it, because now her expressions were on his face

 

“ok…” He gave up.

 

“Hey, Riku! Your gonna' love this come on!” Sora's voice sounded teasing. Hikari laughed and followed Sora into the living room. Lauren held a remote and was sitting in one chair; Evan and Serena were sitting on the two person couch, leaving the three-person-couch open to Sora, Riku, and Hikari. They all sat together as Lauren turned on the video…….To a 5 year old, singing Riku.

 

Riku went scarlet immediately. Hikari put her hand to her mouth chuckling. “Aww isn't he so cute!” Sora teased with a smirk.

 

“Mom!” Riku yelled. She was explaining to Hikari's parents what this was about. Riku got up but hit the coffee table on the corner, his knee started bleeding. Hikari immediately stood up. As her Parents soon looked to Riku, who was sitting on the couch cursing quietly holding his knee.

 

“I'm sorry, but we must go. Thank you for dinner. Hope to do it again!” Her parents let themselves out and were gone.

 

“uh, see you at school Riku1” Hikari left quickly, her eyes on the dripping blood the entire time.

 

“Whoa…” Sora muttered. “I told you! She's the White vampire! You see how they stared at the blood!” Sora was excited. Riku groaned in pain. Lauren looked confused but then looked to her son. “Riku it's just a cut hang on. Sora, dear, could you go into the bathroom and get the bandages? “She asked. Sora nodded and agreed.

 

When both were back, Riku got a stinging sensation form the Stinging cleaning stuff (A.N.~I have forgotten the name, bear with me). Soon he had though a Band-Aid covering the bloody cut. He couldn't help but remember Hikari's gaze, so familiar, so threatening, something in that look, told him she had been thirsty. He shivered.

 

“Hey Riku, My Parents are at my grandparents house, remember them?” Sora asked

“yes”

“they asked, if you were up to it if you could drive me there, if not, just drop me off at home. They would rather though you drive me” Sora said, a little nervous

Riku wasn't looking forward to it, last time he met Sora's grandparents, they gave him a lolly pop, a teddy bear, pinched his cheeks and told him he was cute

“of course he can” this was his mother.

 

As if she can't have ruined my night any worse

 

“I'm not going in” Riku warned getting up and grabbing his cell phone and keys and opened the door.

 

“Agreed, I was even embarrassed of what they did to you” Sora admitted. “thank you for dinner Lauren! See you later!”

 

“Bye Dear! Stop by whenever you like!” Was Laurens last words before the door shut.

 

Sora took the front seat in the silver mustang as Riku started the engine and backed out. He drove the speed limit now completely in his own world. Sora fumbled threw the collection of CDs Riku owned in his car, switching the `Panic! At the Disco' Album to `Bon Jovi'. They exchanged small talk, Riku didn't contribute much, he was lost in his own world, occasionally asking which way to turn. Sora sang along, his voice was ok, but not nearly as good as Riku's, he didn't sing at all.

 

Reaching the house they waved bye and Riku drove off again before the Grandparents could get a hold of him. As he drove, not paying any attention, something caught it. He stopped, In front of him, was no one other then Hikari. Looking a bit…horrified. Tears were in her eyes. Only then did Riku notice they were in the woods. Sora's grandparents lived a good 30 minuets away. Which lead into the woods. Looking at where Hikari had come from, there he saw the tops of a mansion, the Dessier residence. Looking back to Hikari he got out of the car.

 

“Hikari?” he asked.

She came to him silently.

“What happened?” the look in her eyes was of sorrow.
