Chapter 10

Bittersweet situations

I wanted to be like you! I wanted everything
&& so i tried to be like you, and i got swept awayy
--Michelle Branch:; All you wanted.

"No for you its just fun and games right? You disgust me" His words still rang threw her head.

She hadn't realized it but she had collapsed on her knees as the rest of the boys just stared at her in concern.

"Dude What happened?!" Axel shouted. She couldn't understand what anyone was saying to her, she didn't know why she felt this strange pang of guilt and sorrowness now that Roxas had said all those things to her.

Riku stood there quietly, his green eyes brimming with questions.

"Honestly you wouldn't understand what it feels like to have a crush on someone for this long, to dream of all the possibilities you could have when you get together with them"

"I do understand what it feels like, I've dreamt of the many different possibilities already" she said under her breathe.

"Man…he's getting like delusional, I really think we need to get him to the nurse or something" Sora whispered to the guys.

Namine knew she had to get out of this state of shock and had to get a grip of her emotions. After all she didn't come here to make friends. She came here to mess up Tidus's emotions and basically his lifenot the other way around.

"I'm okay guys" She said giving them a reassuring look.

"Then what the hell was all that bullshit about?" Riku asked with a tone of anger surrounding his voice.

"Nothing" She mumbled. "Me and Roxas just got in a little argument"

The boys really didn't know what else to say then. They tried to brush this whole incident off and go back to normal, but even though. The tensions in the room still rose up high.

"Look. Nam…errr Nick." Riku started. Namine gave him a death glare for almost calling her, her real name. "Just tell us what happened, we could try to fix it. Roxas is a little hard-headed, and his temper usually goes up for the smallest reasons"

Namine knew he was right, it was better to tell them and get advice than to just sit around and mope about it, even though Roxas would probably never want to talk to her again.

"I don't know how she got my number. But apparently she had fallen in love with me and Roxas read the text she sent. That's where it went all haywire" She said quietly.

It took all of them a couple of minutes to actually figure out who she was talking about.

"Oh…Olette" They all said at the same time.

She gave them a look of sarcasm as of saying "duh..who else?"

"What did the text message actually say?" Riku asked. Namine whipped out her phone and opened the message, putting the phone close to Riku's face. He turned his eyes away when he finished reading it and understood everything from then on.

"So Roxas…" Sora started off.

"Look…this is stupid let's just forget about it. If Roxas doesn't want to believe me then he doesn't have to, but I honestly did not try to take Olette away from him or whatever he thinks I tried to do" She fumed.

Before the boys could say anything else, Roxas barged in threw the door with a bitter look displayed on his face.

"I'm going to bed, it'd be nice if the rest of you guys would do the same thing" He said.

Without any questions, Riku and Axel left while Sora and Namine got into their beds. Even though both of the boys had fallen asleep Namine still hadn't. She didn't know why this was affecting her so much. She turned over so she could stare up at the dark ceiling above her.

"I just want to go home" She whispered.

She started to make mental notes of how she should hurry up and finish this and head home, and try to forget everything. Try to forget Riku, Sora, Axel… and Roxas.

"Now I am assigning you guys a new assignment that I actually expect to be done" Namine had realized that she really hated having English First period even if Mr. Lionhart was a really good looking man.

"A one and a half page essay of someone that is important to you, or someone that you've looked up to or admired. Something in that category. Nothing to sappy…..your original writing--"

Namine felt her eyes closing as Mr. Lionhart droned on. She tried all her might to keep them open but they wouldn't budge.

"Mr. Crystals"

"Yes I want peanuts with that!" she yelled, and then realizing she was still in her first period English class she sulked even lower in her seat this time.

The class burst out in a roar of laughter. Mr. Lionhart just rolled his eyes and then said "Do you understand the assignment Mr. Crystals?"

"Yeah….one and a half page essay got it" She slurred.

"Good enough. Now class turn to page 450 in your lit books"

---

Namine didn't feel good the rest of the day. A lump had formed in her throat and became bigger every time she was greeted by the cold glare of Roxas.

Her mood was so bad that she didn't even have the usual spark to take Tidus's poor scored papers in Pre-Cal.

She decided she would skip art since she really couldn't face a whole class period of Roxas's silence. It was as deafening as a chain saw or even a motorcycle.

When the bell had rung she zoomed out of the school hoping none of the administrators or teachers saw her. When she reached the outside of the school she couldn't help but smile at the beautiful weather.

The cloudless sky complemented the bright sun, with a slight breeze going by.

She was glad she didn't miss this great weather. She seated herself on one of the stone steps and took out her phone. Automatically she dialed the number she was all too familiar with.

"Yello?"

"Demyx I want to go home!!!" Namine whined.

"Nami? Why What's wrong…Wait hold on I'm at my salon. Brad could you take this for me? Yeah she wants it all layered, straight oh and then colored, hm.. burgundy would be good" Demyx ordered someone.

"Sometimes I wonder about your orientation" Namine muttered.

"What was that?" Demyx asked.

"Nothing, nothing at all." She said sweetly.

"Anyways what's wrong?…I thought everything was going smoothly..oh no don't tell me, Tidus found out about everything?" Demyx asked.

"No…it's not that" She said. She explained the whole Roxas story to Demyx all the way from the beginning.

Demyx gave a small chuckle. "Wow Namine, I'd never expect you to fall in love, with a soccer ball yes, but not with an actual guy"

"Are you stating that I'm gay or something?" Namine asked.

"No no its not that, It's just wow" Demyx said awed.

"Oh and by the way I'm not in love with him" Namine replied.

"Yes you are"

"No I'm Not

"Yes you are"

"No I'm Not"

They argued like this for about another 5 minutes or so until Namine said. "How the hell am I in love with him?"

"You drew a whole portrait of him" Demyx stated.

"Wait how do you know that?!" She asked surprised.

"Don't you remember calling me Kairi, and Yuffie up the day you had finished shading in his left eye. You were so proud." He said.

"Oh yeah…damn it. I gotta stop calling you guys for every little thing" She mumbled.

"Namine I think you should go confront Olette" Demyx interrupted.

"Why should I confront her?"

"So…she could set the record straight" Demyx explained.

"How is she going to do that?"

"Hm….good question, she could--"

"Crap Demyx I have soccer practice I'll talk to you later ok bye love ya!"

She quickly hung up the phone and sprinted to the boys' locker room. She had gotten there just in time too.

"Where are you coming from?" Riku asked.

"Um…my 6th period duh!"

Riku nodded his head and smirked at her, while he finished lacing up his shoes.

She really was one of a kind. Just hopefully Roxas wouldn't be too blind to see that.

---

The sun had gotten more intense than when Namine had felt it earlier. Warm ups started the same way. Excruciatingly painful and sweaty.

Warm ups were followed by conditioning exercises. The team was split up in groups of 2. Sora and Riku were on the opposing team of Axel, Roxas and Namine.

Namine stole glances at the impassive face of Roxas who would pass the ball to everyone except for Namine. She didn't really mind, it's not like she wanted to be in contact with him anyway.

The 2 teams were tied.

When Roxas had gotten the ball he tried all his might not to pass it to Namine.

"Roxas you must pass the ball, don't be such a ball hog!" Coach Strife shouted.

With a look of contempt, Roxas ignored the coach's statement and kept on going. Namine caught up with Roxas since the rest of the players either couldn't catch up or were knocked out, as in tripped or blocked by other players.

Roxas was blocked in all directions he couldn't maneuver out of it this time, but even though he looked for an alternative instead of passing it to Namine.

With a sudden burst of anger Namine shouted "Roxas just pass me the damn ball or we're going to lose!"

Roxas looked up at her for a brief moment, and then just completely ignoring her tried to kick the ball from under one of the player's legs.

It went through, but it wasn't a hard enough kick to where it could pass the goalie.

The other team shouted in praise for there goalie as he had caught the ball. While Namine's team shook there head in disappointment.

"Roxas you need to learn team work, I was very disappointed in you today…okay shower boys" Cloud strife said.

Roxas didn't care; he had other things to think about like the betrayal of a friend.

"Look Roxas can't we talk about this?" Namine confronted.

"There's nothing to talk about" Roxas tried to go past her.

"Please just listen, I don't like Olette! I don't! Honestly I don't even know how she got my number." Namine explained.

Barley listening to anything she said Roxas grunted in reply and quickly walked to the showers leaving Namine standing there alone.

---

"I think you've been a little to hard on Nick dude" Riku said locking eyes with Roxas.

"Why shouldn't I be?" Roxas asked.

"Cause he doesn't like Olette, and he had no intentions on stealing her from you" Sora added in.

"Yeah, then why didn't he just tell me beforehand whenever she first started to supposedly like him or whatever" Roxas asked.

"Cause he was afraid that you would completely go berserk on him" Riku stated.

"Which you kind of did bro" Axel said.

Roxas rolled his eyes at them. Maybe he was acting like a selfish jerk but he couldn't help it. He had really liked Olette and He had really become close to Nick. He didn't know what to do at that moment.

Sighing, he walked away from the boys without saying anything and in return the boys didn't even try to stop him once.

---

"So…did he listen to ya'll's reasoning?" Namine asked.

"I don't really know…His response wasn't that…what's the word sufficient enough for us."

Riku and Namine sat out in the courtyard. The sun was going down and Namine still felt horrible. A whole day without talking to Roxas really did stuff to a person, or well to her that is.

"I don't know how much I can stand it, not talking to Roxas, or not being able to show off who I really am. I just want to go home" Namine said more to herself than Riku.

Riku just nodded, he really didn't know what else to say to her.

"I'm so mad!" She spontaneously burst out.

"I'm not a freaking boy trying to steal your girl Roxas! I'm a freaking girl trapped in this obnoxious boy infested school!" She wailed.

Suddenly they both heard a gasp from behind them. A pair of wild blue eyes stared back at them in shock and surprise, as Namine's mouth opened slightly. She had done it again hadn't she? She really needed to stop blurting the truth out.

"N-nick's a girl?!" You're a girl?!" Sora sputtered.

"What's the use of hiding it now" Riku shrugged in amusement. He finally didn't have to be the only one who knew of Namine's little secret.

"Yes Sora I'm a girl" Namine said in a exasperated tone. As Riku had said before there was no use in hiding it now.

"Prove it!" knowing Sora he would say something like that. "Want me to lift up my shirt?!" Namine suggested.

A tinge of pink spread across Riku's face. "No you don't need to do that!" He said flatly.

"Sora trust me, she's a girl…I'll explain everything to you later. Right now we just need your brother to forgive her..since she's kind of uh…whats the word 'distraught' without him"

"I am not distraught jerk!" Namine spat.

"Oh…I see." Sora said a little mischievous grin forming on lips.

"You like my brother don't you?" He asked.

She didn't answer him but just responded with a stern glare. "I won't tell I promise." Sora said.

"Good….now might as well get Axel and tell him that I'm a girl too" Namine said.

"I don't think that'd be such a good idea" Sora said seating himself next to her.

"Why not?" Namine asked.

"He has the biggest mouth in the whole entire world!"

They all burst out in laughter at this. Something Namine hadn't done the whole day. It was good to finally let something out in the open.
