(A/N: I know what you're thinking; "Winter! This is just a way to pair up Naminé and Axel without making Axel a pedo-bear, is it?!" But honestly, that wasn't the initial intention. Honestly speaking, I can't remember the initial intention anymore. xD But I just find the idea of Lea and Naminé quite adorable ^^ I'm quite proud to say that this is the first LeaMine fic on . xD All the little ship needs is a push to get it a-sailin'. R&R please or fave it. =3 Faves are on the same level as reviews to me. Much loves, my readers. ^^)
Title: Glitch
Prologue: Got It Memorised?
A lone girl sat upon the stone edge of the fountain, the loud hissing, gushing and gurgling drowning out the other sounds of the lively park around her. Curiously, she watched the children chase each other around, the old ladies chatting amongst themselves and the occasional awkward teenager attempting to walk ten dogs at one go. Through her large, baby blue eyes, the virtual world of Twilight Town was all a lie. A pleasant lie with many kind people, but a lie all the same. Somewhere, between the tall peach buildings or upon the ledge of the large clocktower, a young boy named Roxas 'lived'. A special Nobody, just like her. But like all Nobodies, destined to fade away. Crestfallen, Naminé hung her head, a curtain of blonde hair shielding her eyes from the passer-bys. Of course, no one in the digital world was able to see her. They were just programmed like that. There was nothing in their programming that told them to react to the little witch, as she was so 'affectionately' dubbed by DiZ. Her delicate hands clenched into small fists on her lap as she realised that she might have to go back to her white room and work again.
"Hey," was a soft murmur somewhere beside her, but Naminé didn't pay any attention to it. "Hey," it became more persistent in tone but the girl continued to ignore it. After all, none of the people in here are able to see her.
"Oi!"
The blonde girl let out a high pitched squeal as something cold was rammed into her arm, causing her to jolt and snap her gaze upwards to the boy that towered over her. A frown clearly formed on her pink lips, as she rubbed at the icy bit of skin and the teenage boy simply laughed at her pout. "Don't laugh at me!" she retorted, glaring at the fiery redhead before realisation sank in.
"Hey, I was just trying to be nice," the teenager said defensively, holding up his hands as if surrendering to the girl but each hand held an ice-cream, the wrapper still on. "You looked pretty glum so why not getcha some ice-cream? It seems to solves lots of problems around these parts," he reasoned before laughing once more, deciding to take a seat next to her. He handed her an ice-cream.
"You can see me?" Naminé murmured softly as she took the cold packet, toying with it between her hands as she awaited an answer.
The redhead gave her a look. "Sure I can see you!" he announced to her with much enthusiasm. "Why would I be talking to you and giving you ice-cream otherwise?" He grinned and Naminé couldn't help but smile as well. There was something… pleasant about this boy.
"Thank you," she murmured softly with a small nod, slowly removing the wrapper whereas the boy already had half of it stuffed into his mouth, sucking on it casually. "My name's Naminé," she introduced herself, excusing the boy as some sort of glitch in the system or a virus of some sort. He'll probably be gone tomorrow, might as well be friendly while she can. "What's yours?"
"Lea," the redhead announced proudly and Naminé smiled. The smile wavered however, as he uttered the next three words.
"Got it memorised?" the boy grinned before proceeding to eat his ice-cream.
