Enjoy.
Roxas looked outside the living room window, waiting for his best friend to get home. He was like a puppy waiting for his owner. If he had a tail, it'd be wagging. Fast. He and his best friend, Namine, had moved in together about three months ago, and Roxas loved every moment they had together. Namine was like his soul mate, they had a lot in common. He would never forget any of the memories they've had as best friends.
He sighed to himself and went to the kitchen. It was white tile, white counters, white appliances; everything in their kitchen was white. The only thing that had color were the magnets on the white fridge. Each magnet had its own meaning. The one that had the Eiffel tower was when Roxas and Namine had visited Paris and kissed for the first time on the actual tower. One had an orange fish, it represented the goldfish Namine and Roxas had named Goldie. The other magnets were from other places they had visited, and they held up Namine's drawings.
A sound from the living room startled Roxas. He quickly turned around and smiled. It was Namine. She looked beautiful in her plain white dress and her blue eyes looked even bigger with the mascara she would wear once in a while. "I tried to be as quiet as I could. I wanted to surprise you." she spoke quietly. Namine had always been shy and quiet. Even through high school when she and Roxas dated. They broke up after a week or so, claiming it was weird. Roxas still had small feelings for her, so whenever she came back from work, he could just die of excitement. "How was work?" Roxas asked, hugging his best friend and then sitting on the lack leather couch. Namine sat with him. "It was good. I'm going on a business trip in San Diego soon."
Roxas nodded silently. He hated it when she'd go away. Her business trips usually lasted around three days. The longest was a week. Namine worked as a sculptor and a painter for a company. Roxas didn't have a permanent job. He would work as a bartender sometimes. Yes, he was too young to be in a bar, but his cousin would help him out when he needed money. At the moment, Roxas would take some college classes online. Namine was smarter than average and had already gotten a job with her artistic abilities. She was hoping to become a fashion designer.
"Sounds fun." He lied. Namine brought her legs up to the couch and smiled at her best friend, "I have a special guest coming tomorrow." her eyes were showing her joy for this guest. "Who?" Roxas asked, trying not to sound too interested. "It's a secret. You'll see tomorrow." Namine turned on their flat screen TV and changed the channel to Family Guy.
Roxas kept thinking about the guest Namine had invited. He prayed it wouldn't be Kairi again. Last time that burgundy haired woman came over Roxas had to hide in the bathroom most of the day. Kairi would try to flirt with him or touch him inappropriately. He was just really scared of her. Maybe it could be Zexion, Namine's ex boyfriend. Roxas didn't really mind Zexion, even though he had dated Namine. Zexion would usually read and not bug Roxas.
Whoever it was, it had Roxas worried. Especially when the guests are friends with Namine. Her friends were always a little...unique. And it would just mean that Namine would have to pay attention to the guest and not Roxas. He was jealous, but he wouldn't tell Namine that. He didn't wanna ruin her good mood. "Who is it?" Roxas asked again, absently. The young blonde turned to her friend and smiled. She was always smiling. "Don't worry, you'll love him." She stood up from her spot, kissed Roxas on his cheek, and then headed to her room.
A he. Roxas thought to himself, ignoring the fact that Namine had just kissed him on the cheek. "Goodnight." He finally said as she left. The TV stayed on as he thought. Roxas just stared into space, thinking. Had Namine really gotten a boyfriend? Maybe it was her cousin, Demyx.
No... She would have said her cousin was coming.
He looked at the clock above the TV. 9:47. It was a little early for her to be going to sleep. Laughter was heard. It was Namine. She was laughing. Hard. The sandy blonde man walked over to her room quietly, leaving the TV on to make it seem like he was watching it. He stood outside of her room and put an ear to her door. Namine laughed again, she must've been on the cell phone, maybe texting. Then a small chime echoed through the door - Namine's ringtone. "Hi." She answered shyly. Roxas listened even closer to hear the conversation. He even stopped breathing because he thought it helped. Namine was probably doing something with her hands as the phone was put on speaker.
"What you doing?" the stranger said over the phone. It was a guy. Probably the special guest.
"Drawing. Are you excited for tomorrow?" Namine asked. You could tell she was smiling by the way her voice changed.
"I'm always excited when I get to see you, lovely." the stranger replied.
How corny. Roxas thought.
"I was thinking we could all go to dinner after you get more acquainted with Roxas, too." She suggested, ripping a page from her sketchbook.
There was a pause between the conversation. Roxas tried to push his ear closer. He heard his own name, so it must be the guest. "...Yeah, sounds fun. But I gotta go. Goodnight, I love you, Namine." the guy chuckled. Roxas's eyebrows furrowed. Was it really that serious between them two? How long have they been dating? And why am I barely finding out about this? Many thoughts roamed Roxas's mind, and he was to meet the guy tomorrow.
"I love you, too. Goodnight." Namine said softly as she hung up. The phone had beeped, indicating she had turned it off for the night. Roxas stood from his place and went back to the couch. "Stop it Roxas," he spoke to himself, "Namine can date other people. It's not like you're her boyfriend." he sighed and laid his head back, feeling the cold material of the couch on his neck. His eyes closed.
