As Sora and Riku lie aimlessly atop their sleeping bags, the tent slowly tilts from side to side in the slight breeze of the night. With all lanterns out, 'cept from one, the two Year 10s rest in almost complete darkness. The dim light from the soon-to-blow bulb, which can only be described as a syrup colour, lazily washes over the hazel tips of the younger teen's hair now illuminating an almost gold shade. Said light drips onto Riku's own silver locks and turns it a duller yellow as the strands are blown out of his tiring eyes and lost into the darkness that swallows most of the tent.

On the other hand, Sora's eyes are busy skimming over Riku's facial features, watching as his breath clouds into the air around them in cold, musty puffs. Blinking slowly, he lets a sigh escape his lips in pure boredom as he flips himself onto his stomach, two arms folded and placed beneath his chin as his eyelids give in and begin to droop.

"Bored?"

"And tired…" Comes a pathetic reply from the smaller of the two, his head now tilted to meet the gaze of his older friend as he attempts a smile to match his words, the lack of one seems to fit nicely.

"Same," mutters Riku, raising his knees and swiping off some dust which had partially settled on his jean covered knee caps.

"Why don't we do something?"

"Is there anything we can do? It's almost midnight…we're all supposed to be asleep, everyone else is…" Riku's reply is joined by another short sigh as he's far too awake to sleep.

"Um, how about eye spy!" Laughs Sora, attempting to brighten the mood with one of his outdated but favourite childhood games.

"…You're serious aren't you?" Replies the silver haired teen after witnessing Sora's enthusiasm, "Fine…whatever floats your boat…"

With a quick laugh and a roll of the eyes from Riku, Sora begins as his eyes scan the room for an object to pick.

"Aha! I spy with my little eye…something beginning wiiith…R!"
"Is it Riku?"

"…"

"It's Riku isn't it…" With only the cheesiest grin from Sora, his taller friend laughs and nudges his shoulder, "try something a bit more tricky next time. Ok, I spy with my little eye something beginning with –"

"You reckon Kairi's thinking of me right now?"

Sora's sudden interruption causes Riku to sit up slightly, blink and ruffle his brow.

"Um Sora, it was my turn…"

"I know but…d'ya think she is?" Sora sits up, his hands resting in his lap as his body faces Riku's.

"Uhhh…sure, why not."

"Riku…"

"What?" The brunette raises an eyebrow at his friend as Riku holds his hands up in oblivious honesty, before repeating: "What?"

"You're jealous aren't you," Giggles Sora as his silver haired friend screws up his face in disagreement.

"No! Why would I be jealous of you?" Props himself up on his elbows with knees raised, still with eyes fixed up his friend in the barely lit tent.

"I meant you'd be jealous of Kairi…"

"What – hey!" With a laugh, Riku snatches Sora up in a headlock and rubs his knuckles between his smaller friend's hazel spikes.

"I'm only kiddin' Riku!"

"Yeah, I know…"

"But then again, you don't have a girlfriend…" With a glare jokily thrown from Riku to Sora, the brunette sniggers and sits back down on his backside leaning forward slightly towards his friend as the silver haired teen only rolls his eyes and lies back down with arms folded behind his head.

"There's a ton of guys that don't have girlfriends that aren't gay, like Hayner, Pence and…Axel?"

Sora only shrugs and begins to sway from side to side slightly, before venturing with a question.

"Have you ever had a girlfriend?"

Riku shakes his head in response, ruffling his nose to shoo away the fireflies attracted to the syrupy light.

"Then, how do you know all that stuff about…y'know…"

"…Huh?" Seeing the expression on Sora's face, and watching that slight shade of pink flush across his cheeks, he laughs and turns his gaze back up to the tent's ceiling, "You mean sex, Sora."

Said blush only increases and is joined by that predictable and awkward laugh of his as he eventually nods in agreement.

"You're waaay too shy y'know," Laughs the older of the two, not even seeing his friend's reaction but knowing it nevertheless.

"Well…how do you know all that stuff?"

Riku seriously couldn't believe Sora's innocence sometimes. Of course he knows about sex, he was a 16 year old boy and had almost finished High School. Obviously he didn't parade his knowledge, or how he found it in the first place, but to him it just seemed as though these things are to be known by round about that age. Either that or they wouldn't survive High School. With a sympathetic sigh he once again props himself up on his elbows and turns his gaze onto his curious little friend.

"Sora, I just…everyone knows these things, the question is – how do you not?" With only a shrug for a reply, he rolls his eyes and shakes his head in slight aggravation. "Well, you know how to kiss someone right?"

"Uhhh, kinda I guess…"

"'Kinda' isn't really an answer."

"Well, I've only ever kissed Kairi that day at school, and then in the caves…and it was only one of those pecks," Even though his last comment was to dial down the seriousness of his feelings for Kairi, that blush once again become evident over his slightly tanned skin.

"So, you've basically never made out with someone you're saying?"
"…Made out?"

"Oh Jeeze…" Riku sighs, but lets out a slight smirk as he situates himself besides Sora on the opposite side of the tent, "making out with someone is when you basically kiss but it's not exactly a peck, it's more…and after a while tongues are involved and stuff like that…"

"Ohhh…bleurgh," The brunette screws up his face as his friend only laughs and pats him reassuringly on the back.

"Don't worry, once you start – you'll really enjoy it."

"How would you know? You've never had a girlfriend…"

"So? I still know that eventually it's a good thing," Shrugs the silver haired teen as he watches Sora's head slowly tilt to the floor to view his fingers tracing around the creases in the sheets below him.

"…Riku?"

"Yeah?"

"Could you…could you show me?" Riku blinks, his face remaining in the same place as his eyes just flicker over Sora's.

"Show you…?"

"How to…y'know…"

"Kiss?" Ventures the older teen, leaning closer slightly so his face is level besides Sora's, a slight smile playing around his lips as the smaller one nods slightly and turns to see his best friend before letting out an innocent smile.

"Just for practice anyway…"

"Uh, sure…for practice, right?"

"Right," Nods Sora in approval as his friend laughs and nods, flicking his head to the side to rid his view of rebellious silver hair.

"Ok, close your eyes and part your lips slightly," Riku positions himself closer to Sora as the brunette turns his body to face his older friend's, his legs folded and hands in lap as he leans his head out ever so slightly before closing his eyes and letting his bottom lip gently slide out of contact with his top lip.
