At this point, I thought I had schizophrenia when I started to see black smoke-like stuff coming from the side. What if he's a rapist? I didn't want to end up chopped into little pieces lying in a box in his basement. Like my life was important to me anymore. Right now, the only thing worth living for was my love, Namine. I didn't even know if she loved me anymore. She acted like she loved Roxas, or Sora, or even Kairi. I quivered at the thought. Namine didn't even act like she liked me anymore. When I tried to flirt with her in school, she just turned the other way and said, " That's enough, Olette."
My legs begin to stroll towards the side of the building, like I was being sucked in with a magnet. I really am stupid, aren't I? Only five feet, four feet, two feet, take a turn, and.. He was gone. I was disappointed, too. I wanted to see who the mysterious man was. He didn't look like anyone that went to school.
" Heh, looking for me, weren't ya?" The man in a black cloak was behind me. Talk about fucking impossible!
" The name's Axel. A-X-E-L. Got it memorized?", he smirked. There was a long silence between us as I carefully studied Axel's features. Long, red hair, lengthy black cloak, emerald eyes like mine, except they had strange, perfect purple triangles under them. He looked like..
" Ahem. Hello? You gotta name?" He finally broke the silence.
"Oh, sorry I forgot. I'm Olette, nice to meet you." I extended my arm towards him. Graciously, he replied back.
"Trust me, it can be a living Hell knowing me; flames and everything," he chuckled," literally."
Time to go for it. " Say, Axel. You remind me of someone."
"Hmm, does he have red hair and puts it back in a ponytail?" He was contemplating with me. I didn't feel so much like an idiot.
"Yeah, yeah. Do you know him?" I was hopeful, thinking he knew the missing link to my chain of memories.
" He's- Never mind. I'll tell you all about him when you remember his name. I can promise you that. If you ever see him, tell him I said I still hate his guts." He started walking away, back into the familiar black hole of smoke, or at least that's what I called it.
"Oh, and by the way, you'll see me more often now that I've found what I needed."
"Alright, Axel." I sat there for a moment, thinking about him, trying to remember him. I was frozen in my tracks for a moment, forgetting where I was. What did he mean by I've found what I needed? As far as I knew, the guy's a nutjob, but I didn't really get to know him. He just seemed like the kind of guy I didn't want to be with in a dark alley, let alone the side of a building with people around us.
I started going back towards Namine and Roxas when I saw Pence jumping up and down excitedly. Everyone else was circled around something, but I couldn't see who. Wonder what kind of drama was happening now?
" Olette! Olette! Guess what? Guess what!" Pence's face looked like that child you can't trust with a secret because you know he'll tell everyone else.
" Huh? What happened?" I stared at Roxas. He shook his head, refusing to answer. He had the look of a man with a dirty little secret. Something was up, but no one was telling me what. Did it have to do with me? I hope not. It would've been bad, really bad. Maybe Namine told Kairi that I hated her like shit.
" Just see for yourself," Hayner pointed me towards the direction of Namine and Kairi. At least he was giving me the least bit of information. Maybe it would help me in my confusion.
"If it had anything to do with Kairi, I really don't want to know.." I told him calmly. As the idiot I am, I slowly turned my head towards her direction. I immediately frowned as I saw the horror ahead.
" Woah.." we all said simultaneously. Kairi and Namine were kissing. Talk about a middle finger to the face. Kairi's eyes were closed, her smile revealed underneath. She had Namine's tie twirled around her fingers. Namine was in shock, eyes wide open, a horrified expression slapped across her face. Was this why Namine didn't talk to me anymore? Was this why she talked to Kairi so much? Whatever happened to Namine's feelings on PDA? Did that not matter anymore since it was Kairi that was surrounding her? Nothing made sense anymore. Now I understood how Namine felt when she had to witness Hayner and I embrace after I told her that I loved her. It felt like a knife being jabbed into your throat slowly, twisting your vocal cords and such. I wanted to throw up at the sight. I didn't want Kairi and Namine to be together. I wanted to be the one holding Namine. I wanted to love her like no other. I wanted to show her that nothing in the world mattered to me but her. She threw that all away.
" No matter. Namine and I aren't in love anymore, anyways," I calmly lied. I grinned at Hayner, Roxas and Pence, all very confused, yet I felt like they knew I was lying.
" Huh. Well, I just thought you wanted to know. Anyways, let's go get some sea salt ice cream!" Pence suggested.
" Hell yeah! I don't even remember the last time we all went out and had that!" Hayner exclaimed.
" Sea salt ice cream it is. You in this, Olette?" Roxas asked.
" Oh, come on! You think I would pass up an offer of sea salt ice cream?" I smiled at them as we all raced down the street.
" Pence is buying!" Hayner joked.
" What! Who said that!" he protested.
" Chill, you two. I'm buying, don't worry," I offered.
I suddenly remembered the good old days with the four of us. We all used to run around Twilight Town, go to the beach, argue with Seifer and his gang, pig out on ice cream, and stay the night at each other's houses trying to scare the other for fun. What happened to those days? Oh, right.
Namine happened.
