Chapter Text
Sora looked over at Kairi. What in the world is she doing? He, Kairi and Riku were sitting on their couch, Kairi in the middle. She was crocheting a quaintly adorable mini Moogle plush. That wasn't the unusual thing though, he and Riku's girlfriend was always crocheting or knitting something, her ADHD not allowing her to keep her hands still. If it wasn't knitting or crocheting, it was absent-mindedly picking at her nail beds or twirling her hair; both endearing but probably unhealthy habits that she was slowly but surely breaking herself of.
No, it wasn't her crocheting a beloved staple of Riku's favorite video game franchise that was weird; it was what she was doing with the rest of her body that was confusing Sora. She had one of her fascinatingly tiny feet pressed up against Riku's leg - who was in the reclining position, replaying Final Fantasy XV for what had to be the fifth time - her other foot underneath her, and she was resting her head on Sora's shoulder while she let her hands do their thing. Which shouldn't be an issue, but she looked like she was practically falling over. There was no way that was even semi-comfortable.
He just had to understand. He decided to put his calculus homework down for a bit. “Kai… Babe… Is that even a comfortable position?” when she looked at him in confusion, he waved dubiously at, well, all of her, raising an eyebrow questioningly.
“Yes, I mean… Not really, but… I'm trying my best to be touching both of you, but I'm short and this darn couch is ridiculously wide, so it's a bit difficult.” she said, pouting slightly.
Riku paused his game and leaned over, giving her a kiss on the cheek. Seeing the blush spread adorably across her cheek gave Sora a heady feeling, like he could take on the world. Like he could fly. “Well,” Riku said, smirking at how easily he could get Kairi to blush, “I think your efforts are admirable, if a bit silly.” She blushed a deeper shade of rouge.
Pretending to pout, she aimed a playful kick at his thigh, but then she broke out into a mischievous grin. “Well, what am I s'posed to do, when I've got hunks on either side of me, not try my darndest to snuggle ‘em both?” She pulled her other foot out from underneath her and shoved both under Riku's knees.
He yelped, tensing up for a second or two. “Damn, woman, where have you been keeping those adorable little feet of yours, the Siberian tundra?” He kissed her again - this time on the lips - and went back to wandering around the world of Eos, killing every monster in his wake on his quest to level up enough to realistically take on Ifrit.
Kairi scooched, nuzzling her head on Sora’s shoulder, putting her amigurumi down for a bit. She closed her eyes and smiled, fully content with her lot in life. And to think, just two months ago I was worried that I’d lose them both with my romantic “greed."
