This is my first story and it's about a dream that I had a while ago.

Also this chapter was edited by SimpleNClean92. Without further ado, here's the long chapter!

POV: Roxas

I awoke to find Aerith cleaning up the broken vase from last night. I noticed a single beautiful pink rose behind her ear.

"Did Cloud give you that?" I asked, pointing to the rose.

First she jumped in surprise. Then she replied back with blush, saying, "Don't do that! And yes, as a matter of fact, he did give it to me. Kairi also got something, a huge bouquet of Firaga Lilies that were from-"

"Let me guess, Sora," I answered.

"Why yes, as a matter of fact, they were," Kairi said as she walked into the healing area.

"It's good to see that Mr. Romeo is feeling a lot better, especially from his little trip last night," Aerith said as a comeback to my rose remark, as she giggled with Kairi.

I felt my face turn a very deep crimson. I quickly changed the subject, "So, today's the final day right? I'll be able to leave?"

Both of the girls stopped giggling at me. Aerith answered, "Yes you'll be able to leave. But, you need to take it easy the first couple days." Then she said good bye and told Kairi to come and help her get the rest of my gear.

When they finally left I thought, Maybe I should get Naminé something. I tried to recall from our trip to this town what she did and said she liked to do.

Flashback

"Sir Roxas, isn't that the most beautiful sunset you've ever seen?" Naminé said as she pointed toward the setting sun.

Instead of looking at the sunset I was looking at Naminé. I responded with, "Yeah, beautiful."

"I wish I could draw this in my sketch book, but it's filled with other drawings, there's no room."

End of flashback

That's it! I thought in my mind, I can get her a sketch book!

Before I could expand on the idea, Aerith and Kairi came in with my gear. Aerith spoke to me first as both she and Kairi gave me my gear,"If you plan on leaving to go get the Heart Blossom, take at least one person with you. The journey will be very dangerous, and besides, I'm pretty sure that your friends don't want to find you dead."

"And since we've done so much for you, you have to do something for us," Kairi said. With a smirk upon both her and Aerith's faces, Kairi continued,
"We want you to give Sora and Cloud these."

Kairi held out what appeared to be a charm that was shaped like a star made out of thalassa shells, and Aerith held out a red ribbon.

"Hmm, I think I know someone who can help you better than I can," I said.

"And just who would that be?" asked Aerith.

"Yuffie, open the door! I have some people here who are in need of your expertise," I said as I banged on the door to Yuffie's room.

"Who is it?" I heard Yuffie ask in one of her 'Let's play a game!' voices.

"It's the guy who'll tell Leon that it was a certain female ninja that gave him that horrible haircut," I said in a playfully threatening voice. I could hear Aerith and Kairi giggling behind me.

The door opened slowly to Yuffie. She was wearing a black vest over a black tank top, a black headband, some really short tan shorts, and tan boots. She had a bored look on her face when she said to me,

"Roxas, you take the fun out of everything."

"And then I keep it for myself," I replied with a smirk.

All of the girls giggled at that. Then Yuffie asked, "So, anyway, what do you need?"

"It's not what I need, it's what they need." I replied as I gestured to both Kairi and Aerith.

"Well, step right into my office, and we'll work out the details." Yuffie opened the door to allow Kairi and Aerith to enter. Then, Yuffie just slammed the door in my face.

"This is girl stuff that we're going to be talking about, so go do something else."

That was when I left; deciding to go talk to the rest of the group about what was going to happen next.

"What?!" yelled Sora in shock.

"I said, I'm going to go get the cure for Naminé, and I can only bring one person," I said with a nonchalant tone.

"This is crazy! You can't expect two people to stroll through the desert and then march into a forest, looking for an oasis with some stupid flower!" Riku exclaimed in outrage.

"It's funny you should say that, because I was actually going to have you accompany me," I said smugly.

Leon spoke up saying, "I hate to say it but, Riku's right. This is a very dangerous mission for just two people to go on."

Cloud then interjected by saying, " Leon's right. You should at least take someone else with you incase you both get yourselves in trouble."

"Everyone, just shut up!" yelled Yuffie.

"Thank you, Yuffie. Now, I'm not taking anyone else. First of all, who'll defend the town if there aren't enough fighters? Second, there's a small city where Riku and I can rest and restock on supplies. This isn't about my safety; it's about Naminé! It's about getting the cure before she gets any worse! So the answer is no and that's final!" I replied angrily. Everyone just sat there in silence. I took a look around the table. Everyone was avoiding my gaze.

"We leave tomorrow at sunrise. Be ready, or I leave alone."

With that everyone got up and left without saying good bye. Yuffie was the last to leave. Before she left she said to me, "You really like her, don't you?"

I knew exactly who she was talking about. I looked away.

"Just like my mentor said, 'Duty is as heavy as a mountain, but
death is lighter than a feather.' Don't do this alone Roxas, not for your safety but for Naminé."

"I'm sorry, but I'm not bringing anyone else."

Then she finally left. I just sighed in frustration, thinking, What am I going to do?

"Roxas, be careful."

I looked up, looking for the voice that had spoken. I didn't see anybody, so I said with a firm voice, "Come out and show yourself, you coward!"

I was answered with silence.

I must be going crazy! I thought to myself, shaking my head.

Then I left to go pack. It was going to be a big day tomorrow.

That was one long chapter wasn't it? I must thank SimpleNClean92 for editing this chapter. See you readers soon : )
