She is so, so afraid. He can tell by the way she carries herself, the way her eyes stay fixed for just a split second longer than usual. And in reality, why shouldn’t she be? Despite that, he knows she’s brave enough and he admires her still.

Watching her step into the light is… difficult to say the least. He forces his hands to remain at his sides, clenching despite his best efforts. He realizes this may be the last time he sees her. That Nobody is coming for him and it makes him want to take her by the hand and say sorry because who knows if he’ll ever get the chance otherwise. He clenches his jaw instead.

She turns around and startles him, her face bleaching as she disappears. He could swear she catches his eyes, the yellow orbs he trapped himself behind for redemption, for Sora, and for her, and despite his best effort to turn away he cannot. He can do nothing but watch her worried face fade away, until he is alone again and regains control over his heartbeat.

He has to remind himself twice that it’s for the best.

To me, this is that scene in KHII right after Axel shows up on DI to kidnap Kairi. And Riku opens the doors and guides her via Pluto. I love how fragile the 'he' is, so trapped by indecision, even when he knows what choice he's going to make in the end. And the phrase 'her face bleaching as she disappears' is lovelovelove. :)
