Disclaimer! I only own the plot.
AN: This was a requested one-shot by a guest reviewer. Takes place post KH3 and the victory over Xehanort.
It's been a few months since the Xehanort war, and a few months since Terra, Aqua and Ventus were reunited. While their reunion was a happy reunion, it didn't come without some traumas.
Terra and Ventus had their nightmares, flashbacks, and their own little things that would set them off. Aqua, however, was a different story.
She was noticeably jumpy in darker areas, and at night. Her emotions were kept on the down low, and she never had any extreme emotions as she had used to.
"Something's up with Aqua," Ven said.
"I agree, Ven. Why don't you say we find out?" Terra had replied.
Both men were extremely worried about her, and the fact that she was distancing herself, concerned them even more. Terra, remembering the last time Aqua had distanced herself, was even more worried.
'Their safer away from me, and my Darkness.' Aqua thought.
"Aqua, what's wrong?" Terra asked, and from Aqua's perspective, seemingly out of nowhere.
Jumping in surprise, Aqua quickly stuttered a response "N-Nothing is wrong, Terra, I'm fine."
Looking at her with disbelief, Terra replied. "I'm not going to believe that for a minute." Aqua looked away, worried that Terra would react poorly to the truth. "Aqua, you realize both me and Ventus are here for you?"
Aqua sighed, but didn't reply.
"Aqua, what's bothering you?"
"I've already said, it's nothing, Terra."
"And I already said I don't believe that."
Aqua sighed in defeat. "Alright, I'm scared, scared Xehanort will take over me again and use me to hurt you and Ven."
Not thinking, Terra embraced Aqua in a tight hug, causing her to gasp in surprise.
"It's Okay Aqua, Xehanort is gone. He can't take over you, or anyone else for that matter."
An: Aaaaaaaack! I'm so sorry for n uploading in so long! Like I said last chapter, I got a puppy (who is now six months old and is testing my patience) got a job and my little sis is participating in the school wide musical in the orchestra.
