Hello everyone! I am so sorry for not updating so long, I know my other half said I'll update soon, but I'm guilty. The reasons/excuses: My dad accidentally deleted the file after typing the thing, and school started. And for those who guessed RaikimLover as the author of the first chap, then you were right! (She's a better writer, that's how you can tell) Thanks to these kind people who reviewed:

Our Special Star
Roxas' POV
Oh god, I think my legs are going to explode. We've been shopping for hours. If I were a scientist, I'd be thinking, "What goes in the mind of the female species? I wonder, do they think more of their make-up, dolls, or clothes?"
We were in the mall, just following Namine and Kairi wherever they went, while Sora and I are the maids who carry their bags of junk.
"Kairrrrrri!" Sora whined loudly with his shoulders sagging. "Can we stop now? I don't think my everything can take it!"
"Okay fine. Let me just finish with this shop and then we'll go." The four of us entered a small store. It looked like a camera store. Cameras of all kinds and styles were lined up on shelves, they seemed expensive.
"Ooh, let's go buy a camera!"
"Shouldn't we check the price first?" I added.
"Oh. Right, right." Kairi sweatdropped.
"Excuse me, what's the price for the cheapest camera here?" Sora asked. The clerk showed them a digital camera that had a tag saying a hundred dollars.
"It's on sale." The clerk explained. "Okay, we'll take one!" Kairi took the camera in her hands and examined it as we exited the store. She gave it to Namine.
"Hey, why are we letting Namine have it?!" Sora and I said at the same time. Kairi eyed us as if we were idiots who didn't know anything. Namine did the same.
"Because you're BOYS! Irresponsible. Duh!" They yelled in unison.
"Let's all take a photo of us together, and then we can hang it in the picture frame! One for each of us!"
We all agreed to take the picture outside. By the time we went out the mall, it was already sunset time. The perfect time for Destiny Islands, when the water sparkled its brightest, and the sky was the perfect shade of colors. And we ran to the palm tree with the girl's bags. When we got there, we noticed someone there. It was Sarah!
"Oh, hey Namine! Has Roxas given you the thing yet? It has something from me and from him." Namine shook her head. "What is it?" She asked curiously.
"If I didn't tell Roxie boy here, what makes you think I'll tell you, Nami?" We laughed. Sarah was always the type to bring smiles to people.
"Sarah, do you want to be in the picture with us?" Kairi asked. "Sure!"
We asked someone passing by to take a picture of us. Kairi and Sora stood in front of the paopu fruit tree bark that was bending down. Their faces were covered with goofy grins, and they both made a peace sign suiting their cheesy smiles. Sarah sat criss-crossed on the floor in front of Kairi and Sora. While me and Namine sat on the tree, with the paopu fruit in our arms. That's when I noticed Sora and Kairi were awfully close together…
Just about when the person took the picture, Namine and I used our legs to push their shoulders together. But Kairi fell back against Namine and the blond leaned against me. I held her so that she wouldn't fall, and Sora pulled Kairi's waist toward him to keep from falling. Right before the snap, we all ended up smiling and laughing at the same time toward the camera. Sarah just kept sitting there acting as if nothing happened. Though she threw her arms up in the air.
"Okay, here's the picture! And I was surprised with the sudden accident, but the picture turned out much better than the poses. Here." The lady who helped us gave the camera back and we studied the photo.
"Okay, I'll just take it and print out the photos and then place them in frames. Then I'll give you guys them and the camera to Namine, okay?"
"Kay."

The next day…
"Hey guys! I've got the photos!" Sora, Namine, me and Sarah were waiting outside Kairi's house for the photos, and she finally came down in a flashy skirt and tank top.
"Kairi, what's with the suddenly pretty outfit?" Namine pointed at her pink skirt, shoes, and shirt.
"Oh this? I'm always wearing these kinda things, but this one's a bit more special." She winked at Sora. "Sora and I are going to play at the waterfalls and secret cave today! It's going to be SOO romantic." She gave Sora the hint, but unfortunately his mind didn't get it. "Huh?" Kairi sighed, but then placed the smile back up again.
"Well, here!" She gave us the photos, and we all placed them in our backpacks. "Well, see you guys later!" Kairi grabbed Sora's arm and ran. She waved before disappearing.
"Well, I've got to go back to the orphanage. I'll see you again someday Namine. Oh, and Roxas? Remember to give her it." I nodded quickly while blushing brightly. I told Sarah what I planned to give Namine.
"Bye!" Sarah disappeared as well.
"Well, let's go to the park or something, we've got nothing else to do, right?"

We spent the day eating sea-salt ice cream and playing in the waves. It was quite fun, besides the fact I was too slow and I got dragged into the water from a giant wave. My mouth tasted like salt, and not from the popsicle.
It was night time now. The stars weren't visible yet, and there wasn't a trace of the moon tonight. Namine and I sat on the sand with our heads laid back.
"Hey Roxas?" She whispered. "Look at that! There's the first star in the night." Namine pointed one finger to a little star in the sky. It was the smallest star I've ever seen.
"Yeah, it is." I replied. Then I remembered a memory. "Namine, do you remember when we used to wish on stars? On the smallest?" Namine nodded. "Why don't we do that now?" She shook her head and turned to me, I did the same. I could see stars twinkling in her eyes.
"I don't need to wish on stars anymore. I have everything, thanks to you! As long as I can see a star in the sky, I can always think of you. And if I do that, then I'll be happy." I blushed. Then I started back at the star. "Yeah… that'll be the star. Our special little star. And when we both look at it, we'll always be able to think of each other, no matter how far apart. Wherever we go, we'll always be together"

Namine's POV
That night, Roxas gave me the 'thing' Sarah was talking about. Right after the other stars began to appear in the sky.
Kairi offered to let me stay at her house until I could get a home for myself. She said she didn't mind me living here, but I refused. Kairi told me we were like sisters, like twins, but I really didn't want to be a burden.
"Okay Namine, are you sure you want to? I told you, you can stay." I shook my head. "I'll see you tomorrow Kairi."
"Okay, tell me if you have any problems with the couch." She yawned. "Good night." And Kairi lumbered up the wooden staircase leading to her entirely pink room.
I sat on the lavender-colored couch in my pajamas. It was really comfortable for a couch.
Right before my eyelids were about to close and my brain was going to shut off for the night; I remembered I never opened the 'thing' that Roxas gave me. I slid back down from the warm blanket and tore the blue and golden-star wrapping paper apart carefully.
There were two boxes, both were small. But one of them caught my eye first. It was white with shooting stars that were coated in gold glitter. It was wrapped in a pale blue ribbon. I opened it to find a gold star. Not like a toy, but a flat hand-woven star. Little tiny yellow balls were also placed in each point. It was crudely made, but I loved it all the same.
There was a folded piece of paper too. I peeked at it.
Namine
I know that my sewing sucks and the star isn't much, but I hope you like it. I wanted the gift for you to be special, not one that's bought but made. I know how much we both loved stars, the way they're all magical and special in a way. So I thought this would be perfect. I'll always be your friend, no matter what happens, remember that. We'll be friends... forever and ever.
Roxas
My heart started beating fast. Why was it doing that? Maybe because I'm happy. I placed the star into my little white backpack. Then I walked around Kairi's living room looking for some golden thread. I finally found some in a cabinet and began to sow a replica of the star. Then I took five balls I had myself and stitched it together, it looked better than Roxas, considering I practiced all the time in the orphanage. I would give him this star tomorrow, yep.
I moved on to the second box. Which was red and orange, tinted with yellow. This time, I read the letter first.
Hey Namine! I gave you something called a gummi ship. You always said you wanted to travel to different worlds since you were a kid. So I saved up my munny for the thing. It took me a while to find it, but it's worth it. Love you lots! And send me letters and souvenirs; you know how I collect all that useless junk! See you soon…
Sarah
I placed the letter aside and fiddled with a tiny red, yellow, and orange spaceship, then with a tiny blue crystal. I took both outside to try to find out how to make it bigger, but it wouldn't go in my favor.
"Oh, work you little spaceship thing, work!" I whispered. There was a little slot I noticed in the side of the gummi. It seemed to fit the crystal pretty well, so I stuck it in. Then I stepped back to see what would happen. The gummi grew bigger and bigger until it was 10 times the size of me, or maybe even more! I looked inside to see everything so clean… I definitely have to use it to travel!
So I ran back into the house and packed my things and changed into my white dress. But what I was worried about was that I wasn't going to tell anyone. I wrote a two letters: One to Kairi and one to Roxas. For Roxas, I put the letter and the star inside a tiny envelope. I just wrote a short note to Kairi saying I'm leaving to travel other worlds.
Once everything was done, I looked back at Destiny Islands one final time, then I entered the gummi ship.
All the controls were so new…
"How am I going to work this thing? I don't know a thing about piloting!" I panicked.
"I can help you." A voice said.

Kairi's POV
"Namine?" It was morning, and I walked down the stairs to find Namine gone. All her things were gone as well. I was beginning to think someone kidnapped her, but I noticed two folded pieces of paper on the couch where Namine slept.
One said Roxas while the other said my name. I decided to leave the Roxas one, since it wasn't my business. I skimmed the note hurriedly.
"No…" I whispered quietly. Then I dashed off to Roxas' house, where Sora was sleeping over. I clutched Roxas' envelope tightly in my hand. I had to get there before it was too late…

Okay, so um, that was the second chapter. I hope it was good. And you'll find out who the person who talked to Namine is. And I was a bit too lazy to read this thing over, so I hope it's good! Oh, and I just need help to get a name for another OC. Which name sounds better: Ray or Felix?
Roxas: Like I care.
Namine: You're just jealous because the OC is a boy!
Roxas: Am not!
Namine: Am too!
Roxas: AM NOT!
Sora: while those two are bickering
Roxas and Namine: WE'RE NOT BICKERING!
Kairi: we'll just have to wait for RaikimLover updates!
KtD: Please review!
