Jingle and Sway

Sora had mentioned that the new boy looked like a long-lost twin, but Riku hadn't believed him. But now, standing on the other side of the thick and leaded glass window of the old general store in town, Riku had to believe those words. He reached to put a hand to the glass, paying no attention to the shopclerk chiding him as the boy on the other side did the same, eyes wide.

In silence, they stayed nearly connected for just seconds longer before both dashed towards the door, colliding with one another and causing the bells that signaled customers to jingle and sway violently.

And Riku didn't know why the boy was clinging to him, hugging him as though they were lovers as they stood half in shadow, half in light. But without thinking, he reached to stroke soft silver hair and slip a hand against the sun-warmed skin of the boy's back.
