XD Everyone Sasuke cares about tends to start off as a complete and utter nuisance to him, so this isn't necessarily a bad thing. He only knows Demyx from his ranting about Halloween, and right about now Sasuke has put him down on about the same level as most of his fangirls.

She is one of the first people he met at Route, and somehow she has a way of completely getting under his skin. She gets past his defenses before he knows he even needs to block himself out, and upon realizing it he started to feel really unsure about everything. Backstory time for this to make more sense.
If it weren't for his need for vengeance, Sasuke would have lost the will to live on the night his family was murdered. Before then, Itachi was the person he trusted more than anyone in the entire world. Yes, even more than his own parents. A betrayal from him is not an easy thing to recover from, especially with how that betrayal came about. I know Sasuke's goals are to kill his brother and restore his clan, but honestly? I don't know how the hell he expects to do the latter when his brother/revenge blinders are on almost all the time. For years, it's all he's had to live for.
It was happening too gradually for him to really notice in his own world, but it's been happening much faster because of Kairi and because of the fact that he's taking care of pokémon. Sasuke has started to care about (and trust) things other than himself again since coming to Route, so suddenly there's more to live for than vengeance. There's something to think about after he carries it out. At the tournament, upon realizing that he cares more about the fact that his pokémon were badly hurt and he was powerless to do anything about it rather than the fact that he got his ass handed to him by Riku, he got confused. Part of him is blaming Kairi for this, as he didn't care seemingly until she came into his life. She started turning every perception of his life upside down.
Overall, he does enjoy her company. He started to be able to feel less guarded around her (and, consequently, Riku and Sora too), but now that he's realized it he's trying to push her away more actively. That's why he's telling her that he plans to murder his older brother first, without telling her the why (though as that thread continues I have a feeling that it will spill out eventually). He knows it's going to be painful to separate, but he feels like he has to push now before he gets in much deeper. Otherwise... He doesn't know what will happen. The last person he trusted with everything destroyed his life. Whether it's to protect himself from that happening to him again or to protect his newer relationships from meeting the same fate at his brother's hands, hell he doesn't know. But he thinks he knows that he has to go after Itachi alone, and he can't rely on anyone. Not his pokemon, not Riku or Sora, and definitely not Kairi. Power of friendship doesn't have him convinced since all those lovey dovey bonds ended up hurting him more than anything else could.
Not to mention part of gaining more power... From Itachi's mouth, he heard it as 'to kill your own best friend', and looking over the Uchiha archives it's 'to know the pain of death of the one closest to you'. Either way, it's not pretty and something Sasuke isn't sure he's willing to put himself - or anyone else, especially not someone that important - through.
Again, TL;DR - Kairi is making Sasuke realize that he has squishy feelings and is getting attached, and it's scaring the shit out of him.
