Milly: STOP FIGHTING!!!
Namine's POV
I had skipped lunch to go out with Sora the next day and didin't notice hunger growing. All I could think about was Roxas' pained face as I was pulled away. Do I love Sora? The thoughts went on endlessly. I crept back to my dorm and opened the door. And there sat Roxas, sitting at his desk writing something. I felt horrible about earlier and I couldn't help but think that he was writing another hate letter to me.
"Roxas...?" I whispered touching his shoulder gently. I tried not to giggle when he jumped and almost fell off of his chair.
"What the-?" He started and then turned around, "Namine?"
"What're you writing?" I asked wonderingly. I tried to sneak a peek at it but he snatched it away and hid it behind his back.
"N-nothing." he blushed making me wonder more.
"I'm sorry about earlier..." I apologized and hung my head.
"Look! It's fine I didn't mind at all!"
"You're lying to me Roxas."
Roxas' POV
Go on Roxas! Ask her to the dance! I screamed mentally. I openedmy mouth to speak, but instead I hung my head also letting her read me like a book.
"Roxas? Are you ok?" her crystal blue eyes caught mine, and I nodded.
"Hey Namine?"
"Hm?"
"A-are you going to the dance Friday?" I asked after I mustered up enough strength.
"Yeah, and Olette told me you and the band are going to perform?"
"Yep. I was wondering...are you going with anyone?" my face grew redder.
"I'm going with Sora. Why do you ask?"
My heart began to tremble again with sadness. The smile spread across my face instantly disapeared and she noticed, "Roxas? Are you ok?" she asked again, this time her voice filled with concern and sadness as well.
"Nevermind." I said as I stood up and left the dorm and out the school doors. I didn't stop. why does Sora have to ruin everything for me?!
Namine's POV
I watched him leave not making any attempt to stop him, because I knew nothing would right now. Tears fell freely from my face. Everyone hates me don't they? Except for Sora. Everyone hates me since Sora and I started dating. I know why everyone hates me, but now Roxas?! I snuggled my face into my pillow trying to comfort myself, and I glanced at the clock in misery. 11:31 PM...5th hour should be starting.(Milly: Yes they do have nighttime school, that's why they have dorm rooms! Namine: then shouldn't lunch be dinner? Milly:...I don't know!) I texted Selphie.
(Namine)Hey Selph
(Selphie)Hey Nami! Where are you? Class started 10 minutes ago!
Tell Ms. Torra that i'm calling in sick, I don't feel so well.
Aw. Okay. Hope you feel better.
Bye I shut my phone and stared up at the celing thoughtlessly. I curled up in my blankets and set my phone on my leg. I yelped as it vibrated, and I opened my phone, Hey Namine. It read. I smiled feeling a little better.
Hey Roxas!
I'm sorry I ran out like that.
Why did you?
Because I wanted to ask you to the dance
Oh, I'm sorry I didn't realize that.
It's alright
You still haven't told me what you WERE going to tell me after Art!
I'm sorry Namine, I can't tell you yet.
Now why's that?
Because you and Sora are dating
That doesn't matter
"I just can't tell you yet."There stood Roxas, flipping his phone shut and smiling at me.
"Roxas! I'm sorry that I hurt you! I didn't mean to..." I ran to him and hugged him tightly. I jerked back realizing he was soaking wet.
"I just told you it's fine." he mumbled.
"What happened to you?!"
"Oh, Seifer pushed me into the fountain right outside, "He growled fuming.
"Oh...him!" I scowled.
"You know him?"
"He keeps asking me out! He's disgusting!" I made a face and Roxas laughed, "Are you sure you're okay?" I asked my eyes pleading.
"Yeah, "He smiled softly.
"I called Selphie and told her to call me in sick for me. I gonna head to bed then!" I yawned and he nodded.
"I am too." he replied heading into the bathroom to change, before jumping onto his own bed.
I leaped into my covers and smiled at him, "Goodnight Namine." he whispered.
"Goodnight Roxas." I said back before turning the lights off.
Friday Of That Week
Still Namine's POV
I jumped out of bed and read the clock as the alarm clock shook me from my slumber. I growled at it, and got ready, and met outside with Roxas, Sora, Hayner, Olette, and Selphie. We started disscusing about our costumes for tonight.
"I'm going to be a vampire queen!" Selphie cheered.
"Selph, you always choose the strangest costumes." Sora said.
"Me and Hayner are going as a Prince and Princess!"
"I'm dressing up as an Angel and Sora's a devil." I blinked.
"Hmmm. I might cosplay as Jesse Mc Cartney. "Roxas said, "Kairi said she would help me with my hair."
The whole group gasped and glared at Roxas, who covered his mouth, "oops sorry Namine!"
"It's alright guys!" I answered.
Axel ran up to us excited as could be, "Hey! School's been cancelled because of preparations for tonight!"
"It is?! Awsome! So you want to come with us to get some ice cream?"
"No thanks. I promised I'd meet Larxene in a few minutes."
"Oh okay, let's go guys!" I said grabbing Sora and Roxas' hands and pulled them along. I saw Roxas blush and I laughed. I pulled them along to the ice cream shop and let go of them, "Man...Namine." Roxas and Sora panted, "We...didn't know...you...could...run like that!" They paused in between every other word to catch their breath.
Amazingly, Hayner, Olette, and Selphie all caught up in a matter of seconds not tired a bit. Sora stared at them with disbelief.
"So? What flavor?" Olette asked.
"Sea Salt!" they are yelled, except for me and I cocked my head and gave them all a quizzical stare.
"Namine? Don't tell me you've never had Sea Salt ice cream!" Selphie commented.
I shook my head.
"Here. I'll get you one." Roxas said paying for two. He handed me one of them and I gave him a peck on the cheek.
"Thanks Roxas!" I cheered as I ran to sit down with the girls at a seperate table. They stared at me like I was crazy for doing that in front of Sora, but I just shrugged. I casted a glance at Roxas who was getting death glares from Sora, but his face was still flushed red, and I laughed out loud. Lost in my thoughts I took a bite of the blue ice cream and my face contorted with disgust.
"Ew! It's salty!" I complained.
"Well, duh. That's why it's called Sea SALT ice cream!" Olette said smirking at Hayner.
I kept eating it and the sudden saltiness had changed to sweet and I gulped it down in a couple minutes.
"Hey guys!" Selphie called out to Roxas, Sora, and Hayner, "We're going to get ready for the dance! See ya later!" We all ran off leaving the boys alone, back to my dorm room. They all began working being the bubbly girls that they were.
No One's POV
"Olette?" Namine asked completely bored out of her mind, "I finished my costume, do you need help?"
"Yeah sure, I need you to glue the 'diamonds' onto my crown for me." She handed her the gold plastic crown and she obeyed.
A little longer (maybe about 4 hours later) Selphie asked randomly, "Do you think that you and Kairi will ever make up?" She asked Namine.
Namine huffed putting down everything and searching for her clock, "O my gosh! It's 9! We have an hour to get ready!"
Olette and Selphie frantically panicked to get their costumes done, "Namine, you go ahead and get yours on! We'll be done in a few!" Olette said.
Namine grabbed her costume and rushed into the bathroom to change.
Roxas limped down the hallway, with Sora and Hayner, his face beet red.
"C'mon man! I didn't trip you on purpose!" Hayner apologized patting Roxas' back.
"Dude! You tripped me into Seifer! Do you know how bad that could have been?!" Roxas fumed.
"How bad?" Sora asked.
"Like me laying in my bed with all of my bones pulled out of my sockets bad!" He exaggerated.
"Nah! You could've taken him!" Sora said, "So anyways, you guys want to practice for tonight? Party starts in an hour!"
Hayner and Roxas exchanged looks, "Um, Sora? You're not in the band..."
"True. But I can help you look for Axel!" He crossed him arms and pouted childishly.
"Fine! Let's go then!" Roxas said punching Hayner right in the middle of his back, before half running and half limping away.
