I WISH I HAD A 3DS!
*Le epic sad face*
KHDDD had been out for a while now and I still don't have the game, NOR a 3DS to even play it. I'm trying to sell my DS for a while, and I haven't got a chance to trade it in at GameStop or whatnot. There's also a bunch of other games I want to get, so I guess I'll just have to save up…boohoo.
Anyway, let's get on with another chapter! I'm in the middle of writing the prologue for my new fanfic, so I'll be switching gears a bit. Also, I just started a new year at middle school, so don't expect me to update every single day. Many of you have been saying I say sorry too much. I agree with all of you.
Maybe I'm just a socially awkward penguin.
I'm getting off topic! Let's get this chapter STARTED! And by the way, the next two chapters will be written in third person omniscient, just to emphasize the reactions towards Xion and Riku's relationship.

Faking It
Roxas blankly stared at the wall, listening to Namine's tranquil snores beside him. He heard a pair of feet shuffling out the front door earlier, as well as another pair too. He assumed it was just Xion and Riku, taking one last look at the ocean. Something seemed to trouble him, though.
He gradually began to get concerned. This concern turned to trepidation, and the young man sat up on the futon, stood up abruptly and raced to the bedroom. He felt the need to know what was going on outside that front door of the hut.
Namine was quickly roused from Roxas' behavior and got up as well, not sure what was going on exactly. She followed him outside their bedroom and into the front room where Roxas opened the door to the beach.
They ventured outside the hut, Namine tugging lightly on his nightshirt. The sun was beginning to rise, lighting the path for the couple. They walked the whole stretch of the beach, until they came across the curved paopu tree, where they found Xion and Riku, sleeping contently under the faint rays of the sun.
Roxas couldn't exactly describe what he felt right then. Namine thought it was adorable, as her main goal that weekend was for the pair to hook up.
Suddenly a smile curved upon Roxas' lips. He was glad his best friend found the one for her.
He and Namine walked back to the hut. There was no point in going back to bed; they planned on making a breakfast for all of them to eat.
Roxas gazed out the extensive window before him, listening to the silent patter of the rain. The group didn't expect it to rain on the day of departure; they didn't prepare themselves with umbrellas, raincoats, nothing.
Namine was beside him on the rain ride home, only the entire time she was asleep. Riku and Xion were reading over a book, periodically whispering in each other's ears and laughing. Roxas wasn't exactly envious of their newfound relationship. In fact, he was probably happier than ever to see his childhood friend come to love someone. But there was this certain aura that sort of descended upon the couple, you know? Like they would be together forever.
Of course, Roxas was completely oblivious to the fact that they shared a paopu fruit together. Even if they did break up, they'd still be good friends.
The group had finally arrived back at Twilight Town in moments. They exchanged farewells, and they parted ways.
On the car ride home Xion came to tell Aqua about how romantic the getaway was. Aqua, being the caring person she is, listened to every word of Xion's babbling, nodding and asking questions. She was always the ideal person to talk to, and that's why Xion was glad to even have her as a relative alone.
Riku was pretty much the same as Xion when it came to telling his parents about the trip. His father, Sousuke Shinami, was the least bit skeptical about his son dating a girl they've never met, but once Riku told him that she had got the highest testing scores in the eighth grade, he relaxed a bit.
Namine was giddy and overall satisfied about the trip, and she eventually reimbursed her father with the leftover money. She told her parents (and her enormous amount of siblings) how she missed the islands.
Roxas' car ride was much more discreet and unobtrusive than the others. Roxas had put up the enthusiastic act for Namine, just so he didn't seem like a jerk. Truthfully, he never actually wanted to go on the trip in the first place. When he was out of Namine's sight, however, he could truly express how he felt.
Sometimes he felt as if his relationship with Namine was a tad bit flaky. She wasn't the overly-attached-girlfriend (A/N: I really wanted to add that in there, hehe.), but she did seem like she exaggerated their relationship to the max. He did love her though.
When Roxas got home, the first thing did wasn't unpack. It was answering a call from Namine.
"Hey Roxy!" She shouted through the phone.
"Uh…hi Namine. What's up?"
"I've been wondering…how about we meet up for a Christmas Eve together? Like maybe dinner, or a movie-"
Roxas interrupted her brusquely and told her, "Look Nami, we already spent a whole four days together. Let's just take a break for a while, alright?"
Silence.
"If that's what you want, I understand. I'm pretty tired myself."
"Let's make a date for our anniversary coming up, is that okay?"
"Sure Roxas. I'll see you later."
"Bye…"
He awkwardly hung up and slid his cell back in his pocket. He was starting to rethink that Namine was the overly-attached-girlfriend.
If only he knew that Namine was planning on breaking up.
Oooh, cliffhanger! It's a short chapter, I know, but it's an important one. The RokuNami-ness ends here…
Time for answers!
OmegaStarShooter14: Namine IS crazy. She's a psychotic evil witch. Jk, but I do sort of hate her. RIKUSHI IS AWESOME!
Ractay14: Maybe Xion does, maybe she doesn't. I think all of her feelings are completely eradicated, and she full-on loves Riku.
13NeverForget14: I think the TerQua won't be so one-sided later in the story. And by the way, I'm wrapping up the story soon; it may have about three or four more chapters. I'm writing a new fanfic now and it may get it in the way.
Tinge: Are you serious?! You check it REGULARLY? I'm honored! Yeah, I'm gradually starting to love RikuShi as well, but RokuShi will ALWAYS be the best. Always.
rokushi-lover: I understand how you feel. Well, mainly because of your username. Actually, my feelings aren't hurt at all, and I don't take it personally. You may stop reading this fic for as long as you want. Trust me, the RokuShi is coming pretty soon.
HeartsMockingjay: I know! They're ADORABLE together! By the way, I can tell you're new to the fanfiction community, so welcome! And thanks for the feedback!
TheKHZeldaFinalFantasyGirl24 : I ASSURE YOU ROKUSHI WILL COME UP, I PROMISE! (Sorry for the annoying caps lock, lol) Yeah, I'm officially a socially awkward penguin, so I'll say sorry A LOT. Even my parents tell me to give it a rest.
Thanks for reading! Next chapter will be longer and better, and not as boring as this one. Sayonara!
