Note: Look forward to Chapter 3.
"Only Naminé can help you with that. Since you and Sora are connected, she can somehow let you communicate from your heart. But it's really dangerous." explained Riku.
"How is it dangerous?"
"It's only dangerous for Nobodies. Sometimes the power is too much, that their minds can't hold. When that happens—"
"That person temporarily loses his memories." Kairi finished.
"Temporarily, what do you mean?"
"It's only temporary because the person is put into a coma-like state. When he or she awakens, he'll regain his memories at an incredibly slow pace."
"Like, he'll know nothing now, and then the next day he'll know his name." explained Kairi.
Sora listened intently.
"But he can regain his memories fully when he is truly happy. But by being truly happy, I mean that his other has to be truly happy as well."

[In The Usual Spot]
"Hey guys, I have to go. I remembered I had something really important to do..." Roxas kept trying to make an excuse because he wanted to stay with Naminé.
"Come on, Roxas. We just got here!" Hayner complained.
"Hayner let Roxas do what he wants." Olette winked at Roxas. Roxas mouthed a "Thank You", and ran out heading toward the Haunted Mansion.
"What do you see in him, Olette?" asked Pence.
"What are you talking about?" she asked innocently.
"Stop playing innocent, I see the way you look at him, and how many times you've tried to help him." Hayner rolled his eyes.
Roxas was still running, though he was still running in Station Heights when time had stopped.
"Naminé!" he scolded playfully, with his hands on his hips, a smile growing on his lips.
He heard a familiar voice giggle behind him, as he spun around, there she was. So beautiful, she took his hand, and led him uphill to the Train Station.
"Where are we going?"
"Sunset Station."
As they arrived from the train, Roxas and Naminé talked animatedly about Sora and Kairi, which then shifted to both of them. Naminé tried to hide the fact that she was trying to get them connected, she was only doing it because Sora wasn't so happy with it.
"I always hear voices in my head. But I can't make out what it's trying to say."
"Maybe you will in a few days time."
Hopefully, it won't hurt. I'm only using a little magic. She thought.
They started going uphill, until they reached a mountain where you could see a beautiful sunset. They both sat on the edge, while Roxas held Naminé's waist, pulling her closer, and he rested his head on hers as they watched the breathtaking sunset.
"I wish... everyday could be... just like this." Roxas said, slowly. Naminé looked up at him and smiled sweetly, and rested her head on his shoulder.
...it's me... Rox...as... So...ra...hear me?
Roxas' eyebrows pulled together, and retracted, and repeated the same over and over.
"What's wrong Roxas?" This can't be the magic! I didn't even use much!
"Nothing," he fought it. "I'm just trying to understand what the voice is trying to tell me."
"Don't." Naminé suddenly held his face in both her hands, gazing right into his eyes.
"If you do that, your head will hurt. Very badly." I think I should help him in the least. I'll just make it more comprehensible.
Roxas, can you hear me? This is Sora. Roxas?
"I can... I can hear Sora!" he cried excitedly, looking at Naminé with awe. Naminé smiled brightly.
Sora? Yeah, I can hear you.
The next day Roxas had dreams of what Sora, Kairi and Riku had been doing. He was happy to at least see his other. When he sat up, Naminé was on the floor drawing in her sketchbook. Roxas smiled at her, and lay on his stomach right beside her. She sketched Roxas while he was sleeping, and drew a small heart on the left of the page. Naminé was still holding the red crayon. Roxas stretched his right hand over her back and held her hand with the red crayon and drew another heart on the right side of the page. Naminé looked at him with a smile.
"Roxas!" his mother called and opened the door. Her eyebrows rose as she saw the scene in front of her.
"Since when did you draw so well? Anyway, your friends are waiting for you downstairs."
Roxas enjoyed staying with his friends, because Naminé joined them secretly, and now that he could contact Sora somehow, and be able to see what he's up to.
"Roxas, here's some ice cream." Olette handed to him.
"Thanks." He said. He raised his ice cream to the side to let Naminé taste it.
"Delicious." She mouthed.
Olette handed the other sea-salt ice creams to Hayner and Pence.

"Sora, you seem to be happy." commented Riku.
"Yeah, 'cause I can finally contact Roxas."
Riku's eyes widened. "And he hasn't lost his memories yet? How could that be?"
"Are you trying to scare me?" Sora raised his eyebrow and put his hands on his hips.
"Sora, this is no joke. I have never heard of a Nobody not losing his memories when he is allowed to contact his other from within."
"Wait and see."
"Y'know. Even though a Nobody loses his memories temporarily, you can't contact him if he doesn't remember you."
"I hope that doesn't happen. Come on, let's go get some fish." And the brown haired boy ran to the water with Riku following after.
