A/N: Omgz, thanks to the people who reviewed :) and I can't believe it took me so long to update! I'm sooooooo sorry, guys!!!! Hope you like this next chapter!

Chapter 3:

"Nami!" Rikku screamed. Apparently Tidus didn't tell her I was coming. What a jerk. I should slap him. She hugged me so tightly I couldn't breathe.

"Um, Rikku?" I struggled against the bear hug. She grinned sheepishly and let go.

"Oops. Sorry. But it's so great to see you! I haven't heard from you in, like, forever!"

I giggled a bit. "Yep. So, uh, who else lives here?"

"Oh yeah! I'm supposed to introduce you to my best friends in, like, FOREVER!" I sighed. Rikku was still hyperactive and very, erm...peppy. But I just let her drag me through the apartment, which was actually a decent size, or at least it was big enough to have four bedrooms.

First she brought me to a room that was decorated pure black and red. There was a rather...um...interesting-looking person intensely playing video games. "This is my BEST friend, Paine!" The girl called Paine just grunted and nodded in the general direction of the sisters.

Rikku tugged on my arm again before I could even wave and she dragged me to a pretty room that was decorated with flower designs all over the place. On the bed, there was a girl crying. I rushed to her.

"Yuna!" I cried. Rikku smiled slightly at my reaction to the brunette. Yuna was our cousin, and she and I had been very close. Closer, at least, than Rikku or Kai had been. She looked up and her distressed face broke into a wide grin as she wrapped her arms around me.

"Nami...Oh, I missed you!" My sister sat down beside us on the bed, and I knew what was coming next.

"So, where's Kairi?"

All I heard when I walked in the door to my apartment was a blood-curdling scream. I dropped Nami's stuff and ran like hell to Yuna's bedroom, where I found Rikku, sobbing on Yuna's shoulder. I blinked. Well, that was a switch. Normally it's Yuna crying her eyes out. I could only come to one conclusion.

Namine had told her about Kairi.

I ran up and hugged Rikku tightly; she always was like a sister to me. She threw her arms around my neck and collasped in sobs. I picked her up with ease and brought her to the main room(kitchen/dining room/living room) and put her down gently on the sofa. I turned back to see that Nami and Yuna had followed me, tears threatening to fall from their wide eyes.

After all, Rikku never cried.

Slowly, her sobs began to quiet, and her breathing became slow and even. She had fallen asleep. I kissed her forehead and we all trooped back into Yuna's room, which we decided Nami would be sharing and shut the door.

Everyone was quiet for a moment. I had never seen Rikku lose it like that, and I'll admit it, it frightened me to no end how much that girl could cry.

Little did I know that in about a week, she would cry even more, about something even more important.

If only I would've known. I could've stopped her from going to the island.

Ha! I've finally got a trail on Namine! She's in Destiny Islands, staying with Yuna, Rikku, Paine and Tidus. Oh, and we can't forget my amazing brother, now can we?

Once Wakka told me that Namine was staying with him, along with the other Numari sister, I told him to, you know, invite me over sometime. Oh, and Roxas. My brother says he can definatly come.

The only catch to this plan is that he wants me to find a way to break him and Tidus up. Wakka isn't gay, he swears. He just doesn't want to hurt Tidus's feelings. So he asked me to do it for him, 'cause I have no heart.

Oh, there's Roxas. I should catch up to him. After all, we've grown quite close, haven't we? He even told me he loved me last night, right after we had sex.

Ha, I'll be destroying Namine Numari in more ways than one!

"Roxas!" I heard a voice call. I spun around an smiled, hugging the girl who was running up to me.

"Hey, Babe." I kissed her passionately. I think she may work. You know, to get over Namine. We even did it last night. It was awesome.

"I think..." she started to say, and eyed me suspiciously. "I think I trust you enough now." I looked at her, confused. I didn't get what she was getting at, and I was about to say so, but then she began whispering her plans into my ear. I grinned maniacally. Yes, this would work. Perfectly.

Namine Numari, you are going to regret choosing Hayner over me!

A/N: ZOMG ROXAS TURNED EVIL!!! -cries- NOOOOO! Ok I'm over it now xD RnR plz
