Riku was glad really that Sora wasn't looking at him right now. He probably wouldn't like the look on Riku's face, and would only make him feel worse. Riku looked at his book, trying to think. He shouldn't have asked. He should have just leaned in as they were about to go to sleep, gentle as can be, and kissed Sora even so softly.
But now that Sora knew and had been asked, Riku couldn't just go ahead now. He'd KNOW that Sora didn't want it.
"Its okay, Sora," Riku said softly, running his finger lightly over the back of Sora's hand twice and then sliding his hands away under Sora's pillow, removing the temptation. "Forget I said anything. Its okay. Its okay."
