To Sora, affection came naturally.

He was constantly surrounded by friends and allies, and always had someone to motivate him, be it through a quick ruffle of his hair (met with much protest) or just a few encouraging words.

To Riku, affection was hard.

He deeply regretted the time he had spent lost in the darkness, no matter how many times he reminded himself that it had been to save those he cared about. He would wake up in the middle of the night, heart pounding, covered in a thin sheet of cold sweat, chest heaving as he tried to convince himself that nothing was going to come after him anymore. That the razor-claws and deep gold eyes couldn't touch him while he was awake.

This was why the two of them meshed so wonderfully.
Sora brought Riku out of his shell, and Riku was there when Sora needed an escape from the hustle and bustle of his regular life.

So when one day, while they were just laying there on Sora's bed after a quick round of sparring, Sora declared that he would kiss Riku, and it was met with wide eyes and a mouth that refused to close, Riku's face heating up at an alarming speed.

Sure, it was a fairly natural progression, what with the two of them being so close, and so open, and so comfortable with each other. Riku just hadn't been expecting it so out of the blue like that.

And when he felt Sora tucking into his side, head resting on his shoulder just as they always did when he was feeling drained, Riku felt a surge of electricity course through his veins, making him feel tingly.

Sora took Riku's hand in his own, holding it close, squeezing their fingers together, and leaned up, brushing his lips gently against Riku's cheek, drawing back with a smile, thumb rubbing over the other's hand soothingly.

"I can wait."
I rather like the idea of Sora being the one to actually make the first move in their relationship.
Sooo, this came about :)
