Notes: A Sora/Riku friendship fic. I'm still new at this drabble stuff. It's harder than a full story. -_-

 

There are times in your life when you feel defeated. You feel depressed, lonely, and hurt. The days seem to go in circles, weeks lasting forever. You wake up and do your daily routine without bothering to question it; just waiting for the day you wake up.

 

Then there are times in your life when you feel on top of the world. You feel like the whole world is in your hands and there’s nothing you can’t conquer, like there isn’t anything you can’t handle. Those are the days when you can’t stop smiling, when you’re happy to wake up in the morning, when you take everything in stride and smile.

 

For Sora, this was one of those days. He stood proudly with his trademark goofy grin, his wooden sword at his side.

 

Riku scowled up at him from the sandy ground. "Damn it Sora." He grumbled, rubbing his head.

 

"Guess the score is one to –"

 

"Six million."

 

"Is not!" Sora stuck his tongue out at his friend.

 

Riku smirked. "Whatever, just help me up." Sora took his outstretched hand and hoisted the older boy up, awkwardly as Riku was heavier than he seemed. Riku stumbled to his feet, sighing.

 

"I beat you." Sora said joyfully, his grin widening.

 

"Yeah yeah. Once." Riku muttered, casting Sora a dirty look. The boy didn’t seem to mind, his grin never faultering. Riku secretly smiled as he ruffled the fourteen-year-old’s hair.

 

This was absolutely the last time he was ever going to let Sora win again.
