AN:
This chapter isn’t all that long I know, but hopefully the next one will be much longer. Thanks to amane, Ricochet, Ireyon and M.D Sora for reviewing, you guys are awesome!Special thanks to Greyy, who is my co-author. She wrote most of the second part of this chapter, so yay for her! And also thanks to Chocoboshead, you and Greyy are great friends!J
Note: The next chapter is most likely gonna be at least a week late. Greyy is going on vacation, and she won’t have internet access, so I won’t be able to talk to her until she comes back. But I’ve already got about half of chapter 5 done, and I’ll be working on the next couple of chapters as well. So the next two updates should be posted close together.
Chapter 4
Sora flinched away slightly as one of his classmates wandered too close to him. He was sitting alone in his algebra class, Kairi’s seat next to him empty. She hadn’t shown up at school today, and Sora had yet to check his phone for messages. Not that it really mattered about missing class, since there were only two more days until school ended.
In a way he was glad his friend wasn’t there; she would know immediately that something was wrong with him. They’d always been affectionate with each other, but Sora didn’t think he could handle any kind of physical touch from anyone. They were supposed to hang out after school today at the beach, but the brunette couldn’t handle being around a lot of people right now. So he was relieved that Kairi was absent; at least this way he wouldn’t have to explain why he didn’t want to go.
Sora pulled the sleeves of his sweatshirt down over his wrists, hiding the dark bruises; it had been only two days since the attack, and the marks hadn’t even begun to fade. No matter how long he stayed in the shower, or scrubbed his body with as much soap and blistering hot water as he could stand, his body still felt dirty. He hated feeling this way; he just wanted his life, even bullied and ignored as he’d been, back to the way it was.
Clutching his books closer to his chest, as if in protection, Sora only half-listened to the drone of the teacher’s voice. Eying the clock, he waited impatiently for the bell to ring, wanting nothing more than to run and hide from the world.

Riku surreptitiously watched Sora out of the corner of his eye. He knew something was up with the smaller teen; he’d seen how Sora cringed away from anyone coming even minutely close to him, seeming to shrink into himself. He frowned, pondering what could have happened to the brunette to make him so jumpy and distrustful. His aqua eyes strayed to Sora’s arms, noting how the brunette kept pulling the ends of his sleeves over his hands as if trying to hide something.
Keeping his covert surveillance on Sora, Riku felt shame cover him once more. He felt horrible about the way he’d been treating his friend; deep down, he knew that if their roles had been reversed, that Sora wouldn’t have just abandoned him to the wolves, as it were. Sure, he’d been surprised to learn that his best friend had kept such a big secret from him, and he would admit that he’d been a little freaked out about how far Sora’s feelings for him ran, but Sora had always been there for Riku, and when he’d needed Riku the most, he’d let him down.
A voice full of disdain broke the silver-haired teen out of his thoughts. “Hey Riku, looks like your fag friend is all alone without his little bodyguard,” Saix sneered. He hated Kairi almost as much as he hated Sora, as she’d had the audacity to punch him square in the nose once for picking on Sora. Saix had been made fun of for that for weeks.
“Why don‘t you guys leave him alone?” Riku demanded, now furious. He was way too worried about Sora, and listening to Saix and his crude jokes about Sora pissed him off. He hated this feeling, the feeling that something was wrong with the young brunette, but he could do nothing about it. All because he had abandoned Sora at a time where he’d needed support. But he was going to try to fix that, starting now.
“What the hell, Riku! What’s wrong with you, you usually live for these moments,” Saix growled, suspicious.
“Yeah Riku, you’re not feeling bad for the fag, are you?” Demyx teased.
“Shut up!” Riku retorted, glaring at the two boys. “I’m tired of hearing you calling him names and laughing at him; just leave him the fuck alone!” Riku was almost shouting by this time, not caring if everyone turned on him like they had Sora. The silver-haired teen couldn’t remember ever feeling this angry before. To be honest, he didn’t really know what he felt for the petite brunette. His guilt intensified when he noticed the small brunette had silently slipped out of the classroom without him noticing. ‘Damn it!’ he cursed to himself.
Demyx and Saix just raised their eyebrows and looked at each other, now ignoring the silver-haired teen and whispering to each other. Riku knew they were talking about him, but he didn’t care anymore. The teacher came into the room, and Riku absently listened to what she was saying, not really paying attention as he fought not to get up and go search for Sora. Tidus, sitting a few desks away from his twin Demyx, had an eyebrow raised in shock at Riku’s outburst. He pulled his phone out discreetly, and sent a text to his girlfriend Kairi about what had just happened.

Sora kept his face averted away from the rest of his classmates. Tears welled up in his eyes at the hurtful words. Saix and Demyx knew he’d overheard them; then again, it’s not like they were trying to talk quietly, either. Sora got up and simply walked out of the classroom, heading straight for the entry doors of the school.
Stepping out into the bright afternoon sunlight, the brunette began walking home. He never heard how Riku actually defended him.

Entering his house almost half an hour later, Sora made sure the door was locked behind him and walked hurriedly past the den on his left; he’d not been able to even look at the room. He didn’t think he could ever go near that room again. Making his way upstairs, he went into his bedroom at the end of the hallway, slinging his book bag onto the computer chair in the corner.
Grabbing his laptop from the top of the desk, Sora turned it on and began a search of medical clinics. Even though he didn’t want to even think about what Xemnas had done to him, a fear nagged at the back of his mind due to a topic in his book for health class, something that hadn‘t even entered his mind at first. What if he’d gotten some type of sexually transmitted disease, or worse, HIV or AIDS?
Sora had never known anyone who’d been raped, but he had heard plenty. He’s never believed anything like that could happen to him. For one, he’s a male. No guy ever believes that something horrible like that could happen to them. He’d always thought rape happened to girls. And he’d lived a sheltered life, no true violence had ever been inflicted on him, even as alone and bullied as he was. He shuddered as he remembered the sight of Xemnas’ face twisted in sick pleasure. Closing his eyes against the unwelcome sight, he forced the memories of that day out of his mind.
Sora knew that Xemnas was no virgin, so who knew what kind of ungodly diseases that man was carrying around? If Xemnas did have any kind of STD then Sora needed to find out if he’d contracted anything. Which brought him back to his fear of having gotten something from that bastard. He didn’t want to get sick or die, not now; he was too young. There was still so much he would love to do in life. A brief flash of Riku’s face popped in his head, but Sora quickly shook it away. All of that was beside the point; he was going to get tested because there was no way in hell he was going to live with the worry and doubt of whether or not he was infected with some disease because of what Xemnas had done to him.
After doing his search, he came across a clinic only a short way from his home. The information stated that they did free blood tests for teens as well as adults; he was a bit relieved at that, as he wasn’t about to ask for money to pay for a test and have to tell his father of this. Max would most likely either not believe a word Sora said, or blame his son for what had happened.
Writing down the address of the clinic, Sora folded the paper and laid it on his dresser, shutting the laptop off and setting it aside. He would go in the morning; since tomorrow was only a half-day of school, and the last day, he’d just skip it altogether.
Dragging a straight-backed chair and wedging it under his doorknob so the door couldn’t be opened -- he had the fear that Xemnas would be back, and so had begun locking his door and blocking it so no one could enter -- Sora lay down on his bed and simply let his mind go blank, not wanting to think about what he might find out at the doctor’s tomorrow. He heard his phone ring but made no move to answer it, letting his voicemail pick up as he tried to go to sleep.
**Ok, I wanted to add in the part about Sora going to get tested for any STD’s. I’ve had two friends who were raped, and one of them told me she never even thought about anything like this. Luckily she never got anything, since she didn’t even get tested for HIV until she got married. And personally, if something like this happened to me I’d want to find out as soon as possible.**
