Oh and about Ven..I hardly know anything about him besides the fact he looks almost exactly like Roxas..so sorry if he's not anything like he's supposed to be. o.o;
Check out the book Kissed By An Angel by Elizabeth Chandler. Gosh, it's so suspensful..all these twists keep happening! Haha.
Splashing, Truth, Sea Salt Bars.
Her fingers fumbled with yanking the hot blanket off her sprawled body. She was guessing the bright sunlight pouring in and the heavy blanket didn't mix with the sweaty weather.
Finally accomplishing pulling the blanket off, she stretched her arms upward and headed into her shower. Pulling her nightclothes off and turning the faucet to warm she let the water soak her, loosening her tight muscles and she began to clean herself up, shampooing her hair and the other necessites she needed. Turning the faucet off, she wrapped a towel around her body.
Staring at herself in the mirror, she had bright red cheeks - from the heat or last night she didn't know - her eyes were brighter, hair was curled at the ends. Sighing softly she headed into her room and glanced through the clothes she had placed in a small dresser. Looking for a bikini she found a pale pink one, pulling it out she placed it on her bed. Than she took out a loose white T-shirt, and light blue jean shorts.
Heading back into the bathroom with the chosen apparel for the beach, she slipped her bathingsuit on first and then her picked over-clothes. Throwing the towel into the pantry she applied light mascara and alittle eyeliner - not to much to be smeared.
Deciding to let her hair air dry she began to make her small bed, wiping off the dust that had accumulated overnight. When the deed was finished she slipped a pair of white flipflops on her feet and tiptoed downstairs.
Looking through her fridge she pulled out some milk, grabbed a bowl, spoon and some Berry Crunch that she had been given she poured herself a bowl, and placed the milk and cereal box back.
Her fingers traced extract cereal hanging around the insides of the bowl and pushing them in the milk. Taking a spoonful and eating it slowly, she gradually began to eat more not really noticing how famished she was. Finshing the bowl, she rinsed it out and placed it into a dishwasher along with the spoon.
Leaning against the counter she glanced at the clock near the stove and it read '10:00' As she was about to head back upstairs to grab a beach bag the door was knocked upon, the sound radiating off the walls and throughout the small house. Trudging back towards the door she opened it to see a nervous looking Pence and a guy she didn't know behind him. "Hello Pence." She greeted and allowed them in.
Pence leaned against the wall and the guy beside him was staring intently around her house. She rose an ayebrow at his curious behavoir, but shaking it off she said just to Pence "I need to grab a bag, I'll be down."
Pence's eyes followed her till she disappeared from sight up her small stairs. His eyes cast upwards at the boy beside him and he said "Try not to mention Keyblader to Kairi.."
The boy's eyes rolled and his voice rumbled. "No promises squirt." Pence frowned but turned his attention back to Kairi, who had came down.
Her eyes glanced from the flustered Pence to the tall blond haired man beside Pence..who slightly well no looked exactly like Roxas. Momentarilly confused she blurted out "Are you related to er Roxas?"
His chuckle bounced around the room and he said gently "Yes, he's my younger brother." Kairi's mouth turned into a 'o' at the realization.
Linking her arm with Pence's, he leaned to her and whispered "His name's Ven." She nodded and headed out of her house with the two and they headed down towards the Ramen shop. Glancing back at her house, she saw her mailbox flag wasn't raised. That worried her..he always gave letters each morning. Shoving the thought aside they had arrived at the Ramen shop and she made her way through various people to sit beside Olette who was calmly gazing out a window.
Olette smiled and waved hello, she waved back and said "Olette I need to ask you something."
Olette nodded lightly and said "We can talk about it on the beach." Kairi watched as more people filed in some alone, others accompanied in groups.
A slight frown etched itself on her face and she felt someone whisper into her ear "Why the long face beautiful?"
Narrowing her eyes, she inclined her head to the side to see a tall guy with blond hair in his eyes, and bright blue eyes. A black beanie was on his head, shoving his unkept hair in his eyes. "Excuse me?" The noise inside the Ramen shop quieted alittle as people around turned to watch the new girl question this supposively dangerous boy.
A smirk made it's way to his lips and he said "Why so sad sweetheart?" Her fingers dug into her hand roughly as she tried not to react harshly "Stop calling me petnames, please. You don't even know me."
Standing up, she brushed past him roughly and he gripped her arm tightly before whispering into her ear "Watch yourself, I'm warning you beautiful."
She ripped her arm out of his grip and headed outside of the eating space leaning against the wall inhaling and exhaling sharply.
Turning her head to the bright sun she saw a figure sitting near her. Her eyebrow rose alittle as the figure came into view and it was a little girl sobbing. Kneeing down to her level, Kairi lifted her chin up and said "What's wrong?"
The girl sniffled and said "I lost my sissy." Kairi's eyes softened "Where did you last see her?"
The girl glanced up at approaching footsteps, and Kairi looked to see Olette, Hayner, Roxas, Naminé, Pence and Ven coming closer almost running. The girl's voice piped up "Ven-Ven!" She jumped off the bench and into Ven.
Ven's eyes widened and he said "Um, hello." Running his hand through his hair, he looked puzzled.
Kairi heared a woman near her yelling "Marlene! Marlene!" She turned to see a woman with blue hair near her shoulders running towards them. Ven's eyes widened and his face flushed slightly. Kairi heard him faintly murmur Aqua. Kairi giggled softly, placing her hand to her mouth.
The said woman named Aqua hurried towards them, scooping Marlene into her arms and flashing Ven a soft smile. "Thanks Ven.." Ven just nodded absentmindly and stared at Aqua, gawking.
Hayner coughed slightly to break the awkward silence and said "Yo Aqua, would you and Marlene like to come to the beach with us? You can meet us there.."
Aqua nodded, giggling slightly at Marlene's wide smile "Sure, see you soon." Kairi watched Ven stare at her retreating figure until she was out of view.
She watched Roxas bickering with Ven, she couldn't really catch anything but assumed they were talking about Ven's obvious attraction to Aqua.
The group headed towards the train station where they boarded and all bought tickets for the beach, Kairi sat in a seat near the corner and looked out the window, resting her head on her arms. Olette sat beside her, and Hayner sat next to Olette. Pence sat near Hayner closer towards the entrance.
Naminé sat across from Kairi and Roxas happened to sit next to her. Ven sat near the front, staring to see if Aqua and Marlene had changed quickly and were coming aboard this train.
Kairi stared thoughtfully outside the window, letting her mind ramble on about Keyblader. Why couldn't she stop thinking about him? Also..when would she meet him?
The train's whistle blew indicating the train was going to move, and so Kairi slid down in the seat and fumbled with the corners of her bag straps. Inside she had put a plain lavender towel, her music player and some paint along with blank paper. She loved to paint, she wasn't as creative as Naminé but many exclaimed she had talent.
She glanced around the train to see Olette holding hands with Hayner and them talking quietly to eachother. Smiling, she turned her attention towards Ven who was whistling lightly and staring at the passing scenery. Pence was staring at his camera, deep in thought.
Her head turned to face across from her, where she saw Naminé blushing and Roxas chuckling. Raising an eyebrow curiously she was about to speak but the train halted to a complete stop and Kairi - not grabbing onto something like she should've - was flung out of her seat.
Groaning she rubbed the back of her head, and Pence's voice rang through her ears "Kairi, are you alright?" She blinked a couple of times and leaned up lightly.
"Just peachy." Standing up slowly her eyes adjusted to the room and she could see the worried faces of them all around. She smiled nervously and said "I guess I should've held onto something eh?" They all laughed and Kairi smiled softly. The train then picked up speed once more and eventually rested at a station and halted to a stop.
They all boarded off the train, Kairi gripping her bag close to her side and exhaling in relief. That train ride had made her feel woozy since she hadn't clutched to the bar next to her.
Pence was walking next to her, shooting nervous glances to make sure she didnt' just pass out right than and there. She gave him a reasurring smile and he smiled softly growing more confident and staring ahead of him more often.
A feeling of guilt tugged on his insides, how long did he gave to act like nothing was going to happen to Kairi? He feared she would fall in love with Keyblader..but what would happen when she realized that -
"Pence? C'mon! They're getting ahead!" Kairi's soft voice cut through his thoughts. She watched as he trudged on ahead leaving her behind. She frowned, he had looked so caught up in what he was thinking with a worried look on his face. It was saddening.
Sighing, she tossed the thought aside as the beach came into a clearer view and they all stood on the deck watching people jump into the waves, or catch a tan.
She headed down the deck and onto the soft sand, her feet sinking into the warm sand as she watched Roxas pick a random spot in the sand next to a guy hidden with a black hood over his face, his nose buried into his book. Pence was glaring sternly at Roxas, and Roxas just shrugged. As she glanced at where everyone was sitting, she was having to move farther and farther away from this mysterious figure.
Roxas sat next to the guy, and they were conversing together, than Ven made sure two spots were open for Aqua and Marlene. He than sat next to Marlene, Naminé sat next to Roxas. Hayner was farther away from Ven, and Olette sat next to him. Growing frustrated at everyone's odd behavoir she moved to sit behind the guy and Pence sat next to her, albeit he was frightened.
Kairi's expression softened and she said gently "Sorry Pence." He nodded in responce and placed his towel down. Kairi laid her towel out, and slipped her flipflops off, feeling the warm sand squish underneath her feet warming them up, but the sand got colder as she dug her toes in.
She than removed her shorts and shirt and the figure in front of her turned and she met mysterious dark eyes. Her eyes widened and he quickly looked away as soon as their eyes met contact. She placed her bag next to her towel and went to go talk to Olette.
Fate was definitely working against her today. As she was making her way towards Olette, Hayner just happened to want to make-out with her right then and there. A frown tugged on the edge of her lips and she just decided to stand in the water. Her feet sunk into the wet sand that kissed the bottom of her feet, and eventually water made contact with her ankles.
A figure was standing next to her and she glanced to the side to see Aqua smiling down at her with a little Marlene. "Hello Kairi." Kairi smiled back and waved.
Aqua seemed to her a person she could confide things to, sighing she turned to Aqua and said "I'm sure you've heard of a Keyblader? Everytime I ask someone they never tell me..it's frustrating. I don't want to get angry at anyone, but nobody will tell me anything!" She huffed, and Aqua stared at her gently.
"Maybe it's better if you didn't know who he was, they fear you might end up hurt - and yes they're hurting you more by not telling you who he is, but listen, you'll know who he is when the time is right." Aqua commented.
Kairi nodded and ran her fingers through her auburn hair lightly, letting the sun warm up her chilling arms. When she turned to see if Aqua was still there - she wasn't. She was farther into the water giggling at Marlene her sister.
Yawning lightly into her hand, she felt someone tap her shoulder. She turned to see Naminé and Olette smiling with sand in there hands. They flung it at Kairi and she squealed running into the water. "Guys! That isn't nice!" Laughing was the responce. Cold water splashed against her legs as she ran in and turned to see Olette grinning with more sand. Kairi laughed and took her hands to splash water onto the dry Olette.
Olette laughed and said "Your so dead Kairi!" Kairi smiled and turned to the side as flying sand passed her. Naminé was there beside her, giggling and threw wet sand at her stomach. She laughed, and dug her hand into the sand and threw it at Naminé who squealed, and washed off the sand in the water.
She held her hands up to show she was getting out of the chilling water. Olette and Naminé nodded and decided to throw sand at eachother instead. Their laughs sounded into the air, and Kairi giggled softly as she made her way up the sand and towards her towel where she decided to lay down.
Ven was now conversing with the book-reader in black which was odd considering how hot it was outside. Aqua caught my eye and nodded as she knew I wanted to see who this guy was. She seemed to catch Ven's attention because he stood up and Kairi could catch him saying "Ah..stay here for a second." He jogged down towards the water, to see Aqua.
Kairi glanced towards the figure who turned to stare at her again and his voice was deep but held a tone as if he was bored, "It's rude to stare." Her eyes narrowed and she said "I wasn't staring."
He looked up from his book and said "I'm sure you were, unless you'd like to tell me why else I'd have eyes behind me boring into my back?" She resisted the urge to roll her eyes.
"Well, you are wearing a heavy black cloak and it's blazing out here." Her eyes glanced to his attire and he buried his nose back into his book "Ah, but I don't feel the heat." A puzzled look crossed her face, and she saw Roxas calling her over to come into the water.
She stood up, nodding to him and said "Well it was a pleasure to meet you book-reader." She smiled softly and headed down towards the ocean, small specks of sand flying up as her feet lifted to take the next step.
The hooded-figure mumbled quietly to himself "Keyblader sure picked the right one.." His eyes stayed glued to his book, and he kept on reading as if nothing ever happened.
Kairi walked into the chilling water, shivering as she came up to Roxas and smiled softly "Yeah?" A guilty looked crossed his face as he cleared his throat and said in a serious tone "Don't get to involved with them." His eyes glanced over at the hooded figure and her face grew puzzled but she mumbled "Alright.."
Roxas nodded and turned to Naminé who was laughing softly at a joke Hayner had told. Roxas rolled his eyes and said "Hayner that wasn't even funny!"
Hayner's cocky reply made Kairi giggle, but than her laugh died down "How would you know 'chickenwuss'? You were to busy sending glares at Seifer, talking to Kairi, and staring at Ze-" Olette clamped her fingers over his mouth and the assumed name wasn't spoked.
Kairi threw her hands up and felt her anger that she held in build up "What's with everyone? Why won't any of you tell me anything!" Pence caught her eye, and guilt was written all over his face. She immediately felt sad, and walked towards Pence hugging him tightly.
"I'm sorry Pence, I get it..that you all can't tell me.." Pence's arms wrapped around her and he said "And it's frustrating, I know." She sighed and he released her a happy smile on his face.
"Well I can tell you something, come with me." He asked politely, walking through the water and towards his towel. Kairi followed suit and sat down on her towel glancing at Pence who made sure nobody could hear.
"To tell you the truth, Keyblader is a friend of ours..and he is Roxas's cousin. We can't tell you anything else, for instance his name or anything about him. It's sort of risky..and we don't want to hurt you - any of us. Sorry we can't tell you anything else but this." His eyes lowered to the soft sand.
Her eyes glanced at Pence and she smiled gently "It's fine, atleast I know alittle something. Thank you Pence." Pence looked up a huge smile on his face, and he nodded.
She glanced towards the ocean to see Aqua, Marlene and Ven walking up, and they sat down. Ven turned to Kairi and Pence and said "We're getting food for everyone, whatcha want?"
Kairi debated with what she wanted, but since she was new she figured she didn't know what they had "Can I come with you?"
Aqua laughed softly and said "Yes, sorry. We all forget your new, you fit in so well."
Kairi smiled in responce and slipped her flipflops on, so her feet wouldn't burn by the hot sand as they walked up. Aqua pulled her shorts on, and Kairi just decided to do the same. Marlene put on a light blue coverup. The four of them headed up the sand, but Kairi turned to give Pence a small wave.
She took in the landscape as her feet trudged on through the sand, and a small store was seen. It almost looked like a shack, a pool was off to the side and they even had a volleyball net. Ven grinned like a child and said "Hey Marlene, lets play some volleyball while they get the food."
Aqua rolled her eyes and playfully smacked Ven while Marlene jumped up and down happily, nodding her consent. The pair ran towards the net where a group of people were already there, seperating into two teams.
Kairi giggled softly, as she watched the teams divide up and Ven and Marlene were on the same team. The match was getting interesting but Aqua's voice rang through her head saying "Well let's go get the food for everyone."
She followed Aqua inside the small place, where small tables and chairs were surrounding the area. An icecream machine was towards the door and on the other side was the kitchen, a soda machine to the right and counters across the front.
Aqua went to the counter and ordered whatever, Kairi skimmed the menu and decided to get a small salad and medium Coke. Her fingers traced the dust off on a nearby table and she sat down on the chair.
She watched various people walk in, sit down at the tables, converse with staff, and walk out. Ven walked in, a cheerful Marlene at his side. Aqua come to the table Kairi was sitting at, and shoved food into Ven's arm, and Kairi's. Marlene was told to hold most of the drinks.
Heading down towards the beach once more, they arrived at their towels, and put everyone's chosen foods and drinks on their towels.
Kairi sat down on her towel to notice the hooded-figure was gone, and Roxas had an expression of pure worry. "Roxas!" she called out, and his head turned blond bangs slightly obscuring his light blue eyes.
"Yes?" His voice also held his worry, and Kairi's eyebrow rose curiously.
"Are you alright?" The only responce she got was a small nod of his head.
Deciding to just let him be, she opened the container to her small salad and began to eat it, happily. She enjoyed salads. They were somewhat good for you, and if you ate a huge porportion it was filling.
Pence beside her, was eating a hot dog, he had ordered two, and a medium Coke also.
Giggling softly she said "Pence! You have mustard all over your face." She kept on laughing as he frantically tried rubbing it off his face with a napkin.
After finishing her salad, she demolished her drink and stood up to toss it away. Walking slowly down the beach, she glanced around at the scenery. The sun overhead was bright, and very hot. Kids were running around, chasing eachother or playing games. Teenagers around her age or in their twentys were playing football or volleyball.
Reaching the trashcan, she tossed her trash inside and glanced outwards towards the ocean. The waves were slightly rough, but no rip tide was present. Children were jumping wives, or diving. Couples were kissing as the water splashed against them, creating a more romantic scene.
Putting her fingers to her mouth, she giggled softly at how one couple argued about what seemed more romantic; a kiss in the water, or an evening picnic at sunset here at the beach. Kairi personally thought the picnic was more romantic so she walked towards them and said "Excuse me..but the picnic sounds more romantic."
The woman glanced up at her sternly and said "You see! Even this child agrees with me! All you like to do is make-" Her rambling seemed to go, on and on. The boyfriend, or husband nodded at Kairi in consent and she smiled lightly as she made her way back towards the group.
Yawning lightly she turned her attention to Aqua who was talking about them all meeting somewhere later tonight to go out for dinner somewhere. That sounded like a good idea, Kairi thought. But..she thought of returning to the beach later that night to watch the waves and do a painting.
Well, she could come back later after eating dinner and such. Yes, she would try that. Smiling softly she directed her attention back towards the group, who were talking with eachother about where they should eat.
Olette's voice drifted towards her as she said "We should dine out at that new place..umm what's it called? Pierre's?"
Hayners snorted and said "I'm not eating fancy crap that costs us all our money, that we've worked hard to gain. Let's just go to the usual place, around the markets and all. Kairi would love it."
Pence nodded in agreement, and Roxas mumbled something to Naminé, who glanced over at Kairi and frowned slightly.
Ven's voice broke the tension building up in the air silently, "Alright, well it's settled. Let's all meet at the Ramen shop around 4, sound good?" They all nodded.
Kairi collected her things, placing the, towel in her bag. She slipped her shirt on, and swung her bag over her shoulder. Glancing at Pence, her eyes softened as she saw him helping everyone get their things together.
Heading back together towards the train, Pence walked next to Kairi and said "Hi Kairi, you like the day so far..besides the..incident?"
She smiled softly at Pence and replied "Sure did! It was alot of fun actually." Pence smiled in responce and nodded his head.
Boarding onto the train, after shaking the sand from their shoes or sandals they chose the same seats as before, but Marlene squeezed inbetween Ven and Aqua.
The train rumbled on, and Kairi leaned her head against the seat cushion behind her head. Thoughts slipped through her head at a constant speed, letting the real world become oblivious to her. Maybe..just maybe Keyblader might've replied to her previous letter? She hoped, but hoping didn't get you anywhere all the time.
Crossing her fingers, and wishing silently the train halted to a stop, and her hand flashed out to grab the railing beside her before she lunged forward like previously in the morning.
After getting off the train, she waved goodbye to everyone, telling them she'd be there later that evening and headed down towards her house. Her eyes drifted along the various shops that were open, and the drifting smells of the night.
Smiling happily, she began to hum a soft tune she had been sung to as a little girl by her mother. Thoughts of her mother washed over her, and she frowned.
Letting the thought subside she walked down her driveway path and noticed that her mailbox flag was up, giggling excitedly she reached into her mailbox pulling out a bag, small little box and envelope. Closing the mailbox and pushing the flag down, she rushed to her door, slipping the key inside and placed the various items onto her coffee table.
Glancing at the clock it was around 3 o'clock. She could have enough time to read the Keyblader's letter, reply and get ready..but she decided to just reply to it later. Rushing up the stairs she rummaged through her closet for a dress, placed it onto her bed, and headed into her bathroom.
Slipping out of her bathingsuit, she turned the faucet of her shower towards the red 'H' mark and jumped in, pulling the curtain to the left.
Washing off the earlier scents of the beach, she hummed lightly and than soon began to shampoo and condition her auburn locks.
Lather, Rinse, Repeat. Her concious chided her, and she rolled her eyes. Of course her opposite side would make a snarky comment.
Finishing her shower, moments later she headed into her room with a lavender towel wrapped around her body and she dropped the towel to slip on a pale lavender dress, that was just simple, like a sundress. On her feet, she placed white sandals with spiral straps that reached to her ankles.
On her wrist she placed a lavender and white circular bracelet. Heading back into the bathroom, she blow dried her hair and pulled a few strands to the back to tie up in a white butterfly clip. Silver hoop earrings were put into her ears, and she applied alittle mascara and eyeliner. She didn't cake it on.
Heading out of the bathroom she reached for a small black purse and shoved the items from Keyblader inside, along with paint and a pencil. She grabbed a blank canvas and hurried to her car, placing her purse and canvas inside.
Sitting in the drivers seat, she turned her car on and then remembered she forgot to lock her door. Giggling softly, and chastising herself, she jumped out of her car, running up to her door, and locking it swiftly. Heading back into her car she drove out of the driveway and towards the Ramen shop.
Parking her car, and grabbing her purse, she turned the exhaust off, and slipped out of her car, locking the doors. Walking slowly into the Ramen shop she glanced around to see Olette with a simple orange and yellow sundress sitting near a window seat conversing with Naminé who wore a yellow sundress.
Naminé looked up, and smiled brightly to Kairi, waving. Kairi walked towards them and sat across from the pair.
Olette said "Kairi hi! You look so beautiful." Naminé nodded in agreement.
Kairi smiled gently and said "Aw, thanks. You two look beautiful too."
Naminé blushed shyly and Olette smiled softly. They conversed with eachother about how fun this morning was with the group.
Voices were heard coming towards the entrance and the girls looked up to see Roxas walk inside with Hayner. Hayner was wearing a dark green camo shirt with a black dress jacket, with khaki pants. Olette's face immediately reddened as she gawked at Hayner. Hayner, of course being the oblivious guy he was didn't notice until Roxas cleared his throat and nodded his head towards Olette.
Hayner's eyes widened and his eyes glanced at Olette up and down, and her blush worsened. Hayner walked over towards Olette, and Naminé moved to sit next to Kairi.
Roxas was wearing a yellow tie accompanied with a black dress shirt, and black dress pants. Naminé smiled softly, her cheeks tinted a pink color. Roxas's face was red too.
Kairi giggled at their shyness and she whispered to Naminé "Go talk to him, silly!" Naminé nodded and slipped out of the seat walking towards Roxas, and they talked to eachother.
Eventually everyone was gathered, Aqua wearing a pretty strapless blue dress with silver sparkles near the bottom edges of the dress.
Ven wore a black suit accompanied with a blue tie, Kairi giggled thinking he arranged to do that. Marlene wasn't there, which Kairi asked where she was. Aqua had replied "We left her with her babysitter for the night."
Pence was wearing a white dress shirt with purple tie, and khaki pants. Kairi smiled at him and said "You look handsome Pence." He smiled and said "You do to Kairi! Well..not handsome, beautiful" He had a camera in his hands and snapped a photograph of Kairi.
Kairi smiled softly and everyone eventually began to walk around, and reached various stalls, where the night rambled on. They ate food at different places, laughing. Pence took photographs of everyone every minute, to have the moments last longer.
Reaching the clocktower, Ven and Aqua bid goodbye saying they wanted to take a sunset stroll. Kairi giggled and said "Have fun you two!" Aqua gave Kairi a tight hug and said "Hang out tomorrow?" Kairi nodded.
Hayner and Roxas grinned at eachother and pulled a large bag out from behind them.
Inside, Kairi glanced and saw various Sea Salt Bars. Smiling she said "Planning on having a contest to see who can eat the most?"
Hayner faked surprise and said "How did you know!?" Laughing together, Kairi took a seat on the grass, Naminé and Olette sitting beside her. Pence smiled sheepishly and declined at the eating contest, claiming he was full from dinner earlier.
Kairi watched the two boys shove their face with the cold icecream, their faces twisting from the major amount, and tears springing in their eyes, the girls laughed and watched them intently.
Hayner won the contest and smirked, dancing cheesily around the road chanting loudly "I beat Roxas! I beat Roxas!"
Roxas rolled his eyes and handed a bar to Kairi, Olette and Naminé to which he planted a seat next too. Hayner sat next to Olette, and Kairi felt like she was suddenly intruding on their sunset romance. Eyes widening she said "Hey I was planning on going to the beach to paint for abit..see you all tomorrow?" Olette frowned sadly and begged her to stay, while Naminé nodded in agreement.
Roxas glanced at her and nodded gently saying "Sure thing Kairi." Hayner nodded in goodbye and returned his attention towards Olette.
Kairi's feet traveled along the pavement as she headed away from the clocktower, but suddenly didn't feel like painting the beach. Suddenly her thoughts attracted herself towards Sunset Hill..walking swiftly she arrived in mere minutes, and jogged up the hill. Plopping herself down on the grass she reached into her purse and grabbed the things from her mailbox out.
Opening the letter first, her eyes wandered along the words, taking them in.
Dear Kairi,
Well to describe our childhood, our mothers were the best of friends. My mother, Aerith would always take me to the playground where I would see you playing in the sandbox. Being a gentleman like my mother taught me to be, I came up to you and said hello.
You had sand in your hair, and I still can remember that cute blush that appeared on your cheeks. You smiled and said hello back and I flashed you my trademark smile.
We played in the sandbox for a few weeks until my mom said we were moving, I didn't really understand at the time just noticed that we couldn't bring you. From then when I grew up I vowed that I would try and meet you again.
Never fallen in love?
Neither have I, that little boy sounds exactly like me huh? If you think he's breathtaking, you should try and talk to him. Say hello or something.
Oh, Pence? Yes he does have an appetite. He's a good friend..always there for you.
Don't down yourself. Yes, your not pretty. Your beautiful..very beautiful.
My name, is Sora.
Sincerely,
Keyblader, now known as Sora.
Her eyes blinked rapidly..as she tried to remember the past, but his name kept running through her head. Sora, Sora, Sora. She constantly thought as she opened the bag and it revealed a piece of paper inside. Pulling it out, it read:
Someday we shall meet, but until than - I'll wait for you. Please, wait for me.
Placing the paper inside the bag, she placed the bag and the now folded letter inside her purse, and finally opened the small box to see another necklace, it was silver with a blue Sea Salt Bar dangling on the end. Giggling she placed the necklace around her neck, and pulled the silver crown necklace out too, placing that on also.
Smiling happily, she placed the box inside her bag and began to head down the hill and walk towards her car.
The minutes passed quickly and she was in her car, pulling into her driveway. Yawning lightly, she locked her car keeping the canvas inside. Unlocking her door she walked in, closing the door and locking it.
Traveling upstairs she dropped her bag onto her floor, along with her shoes, and bracelets. She pulled off her dress and put on a loose white T-shirt and black mesh shorts.
Slipping under her covers a slight smile was tugging on her lips before she fell unconcious.
Sora..
Just who was he..?
