A oneshot drabble; very short.

It was that time of year again and once again, Sora found himself all alone on the holidays; sure he had his friends, but what he really wanted, he could never have.
He wanted to spend Christmas all alone with his best friend Riku. Riku Awayuki was Sora’s first real crush; yes crush.
Sora started to get feelings for him at the tender age of ten. Sora didn’t understand his feelings at first, but as he grew older he realized the feelings he was having was love.
Love for his best friend, who just happened to be a guy.

“Perdy please, with Christmas cookies on top!” Selphie begged.
The girl was dressed from head to toe in a green elf costume.
“Selphie, no way, no how.” Riku said, backing away from the girl.
Selphie’s big blue eyes started to water and her lips trembled.
Riku sighed, “Fine.”

Sora blushed, but let the girls push him towards the Santa at the mall. He giggled, seeing Selphie dressed as an elf.
“Come on, Sora,” Yuffie said, “sit on his lap.”
“I’m too big to sit on Santa’s lap,” Sora grumbled.
“Nobody is ever too big,” Kairi said.
In the end Sora lost that battle and the next thing he knew, he was sitting on Santa’s lap.
“What would you like this year?” Santa asked, his voice strangely familiar.
Sora looked at Santa, his eyes wide and sad, “the only think I want, I can never have.”
“W-what do you mean?” Santa asked, concerned for the young teen on his lap.
Sora shrugged, “I guess I can tell you. I’m in love with my best friend and I just want to… be loved back.”
Santa suddenly coughed, his face becoming more red then it had been before, “you mean that girl with red hair?” Santa asked, pointing to Kairi.
Sora shook his head, “no, my other best friend.”
“Sora…?” Santa whispered, his voice suddenly much more recognizable.
Sora’s eyes went wide; he looked at Santa’s eyes; he started to panic. “Riku?” he whispered.
“You’ll get what you want this year.”
Sora gasped, his whole body shaking.
“This isn’t the place for me to express what I’m feeling right now, Sora… may I come over after my shift is over?”
Tears fell down Sora’s cheeks, “yes, o-of course.” he said, nodding.

Selphie smirked. “My plans always work.”
With a soft smile on her face, the teen started to formulate another plan.
