CHAPTER 51

Roxas made an annoyed grunt and thought up another one. "What do you call a boomerang that doesn't come back?"

"A stick."

"Jesus!" Roxas clenched his fists.

Kim laughed, amused by his frustration. Maybe the next four hours wouldn't be so bad after all.

Two hours later and Roxas was still throwing pointless stuff at her. After the riddles, they played the guessing game. When that was boring, Roxas tried to make her laugh with stupid jokes. Then, they fought about this and that non-stop. Kim told him what a retard she thought he was while he called her every name he could think of. With time moving by slower than ever before, they really started to get on each others' nerves, not to mention everyone else's on the plane listening to their insane screaming and yelling.

"Oooooh." Kim had said a while ago. "If it wasn't against the law to kill you..."

Finally, with two hours left until the plane would reach Florida, they faced away from each other with their arms folded over their chest and disgusted looks on their faces. Kim began to wish she'd never called him her friend. What little friendship they did have was on the brink of destruction. But, what would you expect? A five hour trip stuck together was bound to turn out horribly.

"I can't believe you." Kim hissed. "Of a the stupid little, pathetic-"

"Well maybe if you hadn't made fun of me and the stuff I like to do," Roxas started, growling, "I wouldn't have blown up in your face!" It was true. Kim had made a few comments about him and skateboarding, Blitz Ball, ect. She'd hit a few nerves, too. Roxas hadn't been this upset with anyone for years.

"Oh please," Kim scowled, "save it for someone who cares."

"I thought you did!" Roxas turned to her, hate in his eyes. "If you thought skateboards were so pointless and worthless, why did you buy me a new one?! And you've never even played Blitz Ball! How should you know if it's fun or not?!"

"It's a stupid and competitive game!" Kim shot back the same glare. "And why risk your life riding around on a board, just because you think it makes you look cool!?"

"I don't skateboard because I think it makes me look cool!" Roxas yelled louder, leaning in closer to her until their noses were nearly touching.

"Oh, sure." Kim gridded her teeth together and clenched her fists.

"Let's see you try and ride a skateboard! It's harder than it looks." Roxas wanted so bad just to start attacking her. He was about to explode with all the anger rising in his chest.

"No thanks, I'm not a total idiot," Kim started, "Unlike someone I know."

That must've been the 1 millionth time she'd called him an idiot in the past two weeks. It was really started to get under his skin.

He didn't say anything, but just kept staring. Kim did the same, and that's how it stayed for a solid twenty minutes. Nothing but growling and and glares that just screamed 'I hate you.'

After a while, though, it got less intense between them. The lightning and thunder in the background and electricity shotting from eye to eye was clearing up. They still looked pissed off at each other, though. Really pissed off. Finally, the two just turned away from each other and Roxas even got up to go sit next to somebody else instead, even though he wasn't supposed to. Kim didn't even take the time to care. She just stared ahead of her with that same sick look of irritation.

When Roxas sat down next to Hayner, Hayner leaned over to see Roxas's face and wiggled his eyebrows. "You okay?" He asked.

"Shut-up." Roxas said quite harshly.

"Okay, Geez..." Hayner leaned back in his seat, a little surprised. The best thing to do would to just leave Roxas alone until he cooled off. He was a ticking time bomb ready to go off.

000

Roxas had finally calmed down enough a hour and a half later, until he could have a normal conversation with his best friend and not freak out for no reason.

"Sorry about earlier," Roxas sighed.

"Just one of those days?" Hayner tried not to laugh. He wasn't really offended or anything in the first place, so it was all good.

"Sure."

"What happened?" Hayner questioned.

"You didn't hear us?" Roxas made a face. "I thought the whole plane did. We weren't exactly... Thinking about it."

"What? You and Kim? Yeah, I heard that." Hayner told. "Riku almost got up to see what the hell was wrong, but then he just figured it was you and Kim having another fight. Believe it or not, Namine was actually laughing for a while. She loves it when that girl's having a bad day."

"I can imagine why."

"You know," Hayner started, tapping on Roxas's shoulder, "You said some pretty mean things. Namine may have been enjoying it, but I think you should say sorry."

"Well she-"

"Be the better person." Hayner interrupted him. "Maybe she'll learn from you. You two hang out enough anyways. You could teach her a thing or two."

Roxas sighed and took a second to just sit there and stare down at the floor.

You two hang out enough.

Did they really spend that much time together? He'd never really thought about it before.

Hayner nudged him. "Go apologize..." Hayner reminded, pointing to the opposite side of the plane staring at the back of the seat in front of her with her arms folded over her chest, but lightly. She still looked ticked off, but there was something else in her features too. She definitely didn't look guilty, but a little upset (in a sad way), which made Roxas the one who felt guilty, even though Kim had thrown her words around more carelessly than himself. Roxas took a deep breath, and forced his feet forward, until he was standing next to the seat where Kim was. Roxas stood, and leaned over so he could get a somewhat good look at her face. She was still next to the seat he'd been sitting in before, facing Kim. She didn't look at him when he sat down.

Sighing deeply, he leaned over and craned his neck to he'd be looking up at Kim, and then her eyes shifted to look at him. Kim looked annoyed now.

"Hey, I-"

"Can't you just, y'know, shut-up and leave me alone?" Kim scowled.

Roxas sat up straight again. Forget it. Roxas stood again, without looking at Kim once, and began walking back towards Hayner.

"Wait!"

Roxas stopped suddenly, made a face and looked over his shoulder. Kim was staring up at him, her eyes just a little bit desperate looking, which sent chills up his back and made his stomach churn. The things girls could do to him...

"Hn?" Roxas grunted, turning to face her in the middle of the hall when she'd gotten up and followed him.

"I..." Kim paused and looked around at the people staring at them, who actually looked quite frightened, and then grabbed Roxas's arms. "Follow me." She breathed, dragging him to the back of the plane, and then shoved him into a rather large room where all the suitcases, bags, and such were being stored.

She walked in after him and shut the metal doors behind them, her feet making loud clicking noises against the hard floor.

"What?" Roxas asked, a little scared himself. He made sure to keep a far enough distance away from her.

Kim looked like she was trying to say something, but every time she opened her mouth, nothing came out. It was kind of funny to watch. She started to look like a fish when she did it.

She took a deep breath and leaned against the wall next to him, and slid her back down it until she was sitting on the floor next to a large suitcase. Roxas eventually joined her, resting his arms on his knees.

Kim took another deep breath and lightly placed a hand over her cheek for a second before letting it fall next to her again.

"Kim?" Roxas asked suddenly.

"I-" Kim really looked like she was having a hard time trying to say whatever. She faced away from him and folded her arms again, and just forced the words from her mouth. "I'm sorry."

despite how cold she'd made the words sound, it still took Roxas by surprise. He hadn't been prepared for that. Maybe a beating or a few curse words, but not an "I'm sorry." It seriously caught him off guard. Speechless wouldn't even begin to cover it. Since when does Kim say sorry? She was always so 'In-your-face-bitch' that he didn't even really knew if she knew the meaning of the words.

Kim finally seemed to relax, and she leaned into the wall and brushed her hair back with her fingers. It didn't look like she was really expecting him to say anything. She probably just said it to make herself feel better, which kind of made Roxas want to explode. But she was getting better, he guessed.

"Me too." He finally said, and then Kim stood. She gave him a simply 'okay' look and then headed for the door. he got up and followed her, ready to go sit next to Hayner until she looked up at him as he passed by, looking like she expected him to sit back down next to her. So, he did without question. As soon as he sat down, a voice on the speakers came though and told everyone they'd be landing in five.

Roxas felt kind of awkward sitting next to her again. She didn't care though. Oddly, that relaxed him a little.

"So..." He broke the awkward silence and caught her sudden attention. "A boat..."

Kim raised her eyebrows for a second, and then remembered. "Mmm." She hummed.

"Have... you ever been on a boat before?" He tried to make small talk.

"Yes." Kim nodded. "Lots of times."

Good... He was getting somewhere; the awkwardness was slowly disappearing.

"You?" She asked.

"Nope," Roxas laughed, setting his arm on the arm rest and his feet against the empty chair in front of him, easing up. "Is it fun?"

"It's actually kind of boring." Kim thought for a second. "Relaxing... But boring."

"Wonderful," Roxas shook his head, "Hayner said we'll be on the ship for seven hours."

"I probably should have saved that last chapter..." Kim looked frustrated with herself. It amused Roxas a little.

"You can always hang out with me."

Kim looked up at him suddenly with a questioning gaze.

Oops.

"Uh, I mean-"

"Sure." Kim but him off. "As long as you're not planning on being annoying, or bothersome, whatever."

"Yeah," Roxas shook his head at himself, "I mean -No. I... I won't-"

"I get it." Kim laughed. She actually laughed!

Roxas took a second to let it replay over and over again in his head, like a broken tape recorder. Kim waved a hand in front of his face and snapped her fingers a few times to catch his attention.

"Roxas?"

Suddenly, the plane jerked and started to land, reaching the runway and slowing down smoothly until it came to a complete stop. Roxas and Kim were both back to shoving each other out of the way too look out of the plane window, fighting over who got to see first like little children.

They were back to the normal same-old same-old again. Nor surprise.

At least they got a long for, like, 5 minutes before it was over.

"Bahamas, here I come!" Selphie screamed in the background. Roxas erupted into laughter, letting Kim have the window while he struggled to keep his seat. Bahamas, here I come!

At last.

The ship was huge. Like the one's you'd see on T.V. or in movies. It was really fancy, too. They could hardly wait to get on it and explore, but they had to stop and check in with the coach and a few of the teachers first, and then follow them to where their suitcases and bags were being dropped off. Everyone grabbed their things and then they dragged it onto the boat, following the coach off the deck and inside, past a dining hall and a few large lounges. Everyone "oohed" and "ahhed" as they went. Finally, they reached a row of rooms where they'd be sleeping in, because the boat wouldn't reach the Bahamas until super early in the morning. About 3 a.m. The coach urged most people to start getting some sleep right away, or at least the Blitz Ball team. Not like they were going to listen, though.

As soon as people were in their rooms (two to a room) they were out and about all over the ship. Most people raced for the deck in front of the ship as it started out into the ocean, while others attacked the pastries in the dining hall. Some were even just hanging around in the super luxuriously lounges. They were told that the hotel they were staying at next to the beach in the Bahamas would be even better.

Nothing was more worth their time.

Who could ask for more?

"So..." Olette sighed peacefully, totally ready to just relax for a week. This vacation was just what she needed. Best of all, she wouldn't have to worry about making up a bunch of school work while she was gone. They brought it with them! Olette could see herself now; sitting on the beach with he cool breeze blowing through her hair, peacefully working on homework. It was a heck of a lot better than just doing it at home. "We'll be in Bimini?"

"Yeah," Hayner leaned against her chair, reaching over and stealing food off the table, "That's where they hold all the Blitz Ball stuff every year. It'll be really cool, because we'll be playing in the ocean while everyone watches underwater in this... I don't know. I'm not too sure how it works yet."

"Sounds cool." Olette giggled, reaching out towards the middle of the table for a brownie.

"Mmhm." Hayner hummed with his mouth full, and then sat next to her and swallowed. "We're playing six games total. One every day. And then the last day we're here, we're just going to pack up and kind of hang out."

"Hmmm." Olette Nodded her head slowly, and looked around the room for a second. "Hey," she started, "I want to look around a little. Want to come?"

Hayner shrugged. "Sure."

Olette smiled and they both stood up and walked out of the large, crowded room together. Most of the hallways were pretty empty. Most everyone was ether on the deck, in the pool, eating in the dinning hall, etc. As they passed the pool in the back of the ship, she spotted Tidus and Wakka laughing at Pence, who supposedly slipped, and Sora and Kairi who too caught up in their conversation to notice Hayner and Olette waving.

They shrugged and moved on, eventually ending up lost deep in the ship. They were completely alone on the level they were on. They could faintly heard the laughter from higher up, though. Olette peaked out a window, and saw nothing but ocean, because the part of the boat they were on was underwater. Hayner joined her and they watched fish swim by for a while. They walked down a few hallways with paintings covering the walls and flickering lights. They peaked in a few of the rooms, which looked like the rooms were guests would stay, but they were all empty.

Feeling just a little confused, they sat against the wall for a while. Their legs were tired and felt kinda like Jell-O. The feeling wasn't very pleasant.

"This thing is huge!" Hayner exclaimed, rubbing his sore legs.

"We should've just stayed where we were," Olette giggled, not really letting any of it get to her. She'd gotten to see more of the ship than most people would anyways, so she was fine with it.

"Probably."

"I wonder what everyone's doing right now..." Olette stared up at the ceiling, frowning at the light that flickered above them.

"Well," Hayner started, pondering a moment, "I can imagine Selphie's eating her heart out right now, and Roxas is probably still fighting with Kim. They've been doing that a lot lately." He laughed.

"You wanna know a secret?" Olette asked, hushing her voice a little.

Hayner leaned over and gave her a goofy grin. "What?"

"Fish scare me," she confessed, "I'm not fond of seaweed ether."

"Really?" Hayner pretended to act surprised.

"Yeah. Anything bigger than a gold fish scares me," Olette told, looking a little embarrassed. "Kind of random, huh?"

"Mmm." Hayner hummed. "I don't mind."

Olette smiled.

"So..." Hayner sarted again, looking down the dark hallway. "We should probably find a way out now..."

"Right..." Olette nodded. Hayner helped her up and smiled at her. They walked for a while longer before finding stairs. They climbed until they reached the next level of the ship, and began searching again for more. After an hour and a half, they finally reached the main level again and sighed in relief when they saw Selphie running down the hall at them, screaming.

"Hey! There you are!" Selphie shrieked. "You'll never guess what happened!"

Olette gave her a quizzical look and tilted her head.

"We saw dolphins. It was really cool!" Selphie was jumping up and down by now. Sugar rush, much?

"Cool." Hayner gave her a thumbs up. With that, Selphie was gone again in an instant and they both laughed, exchanging amused looks.

"Hungry?" Hayner asked.

"Sure." Olette giggled.

000

"Tidus!" Selphie cried, grabbing the boys arm and tugging on it.

"What?" He asked, a little taken back by her sudden presence.

"I wanna take a Titanic picture!" She exclaimed.

"And...?" Tidus got a bad feeling in the pit of his stomach.

"I need your help," she pokes his chest, "stupid!" She grabbed a hold of his hand and forcefully dragged him to the front of the ship. They reached the railing at the front and Selphie peaked over, watching the water hit the front of the ship and run by them. "Kairi!" She called, and Kairi walked up to them, camera already in hand. She looked like she was about to erupt in laughter.

"I'm ready." She told.

Selphie instructed Tidus on what he should do, and Tidus suddenly felt really embarrassed by all the attention they were getting. Selphie squealed, setting both her feet on the edge and letting her toes hang over the edge. Tidus closed his eye, letting his blonde hair cover his face when he grabbed her from behind, getting it over with.

"Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!" Selphie screamed.

Kairi took the picture and there was a short flash before Kairi looked up and winked. "Cute..." She giggled.

"I wanna see it!" Selphie got back down and dashed to Kairi's side, leaning over so she could see it. Her smile grew and she spin in circles, waving at Tidus. "Come see it!" She commanded.

Tidus sighed and Kairi showed him before handing the camera to Selphie.

"I'm putting this in my locker when we get back home." She squealed, hugging the camera against her chest.

Before she dashed off in the crowd to go show everyone, though, she stood up on the tips of her toes and pecked Tidus on the cheek.

Tidus watch her run away, his face heating up where she'd kissed him. He just stood there for a while, speechless.

"Are you okay?" Kairi asked, looking concerned. Lovestruck boys always looked so ill.

000

"Wow..." Namine leaned against the railing, taking in the sunset. It was even more beautiful when you were actually on the sea. Riku stood next to her, resting his folded arms on the rail. They both stared in awe for a while before they both looked at each other at the same time and laughed. "I'm so excited." Namine cooed.

"Me too." Riku said, brushing stay hair from her face and tucking it behind her ear for her. He smiled warmly at her before looking back into the ocean. He arched his back a little and sighed, closing his eyes for a second. He took a deep breath and let the cool, afternoon air fill his lungs. He opened his eyes again and faced her again, still smiling. "I have this feeling we're going to have a good time."

Namine giggled, feeling totally relaxed. After going through a month of being locked up in her grandmas house alone, having to listen to the screaming coming from the streets of New York, she was glad this was where she was. She suddenly felt a little sad when Riku looked away from her to gaze out into the sea again.

Namine and Riku were pretty much alone out on this part on the deck. A large part of the crowd was already inside eating dinner or sleeping, and the other part of the crowd was ether still at the pool or in the front on the boat. They were finally, almost 100 alone and Riku suddenly seemed distant.

Namine shook her head and joined him again. She sighed peacfully when a breeze pushed her hair back and caressed her cheeks. She smiled when she felt Riku's hand reach over and grab hers, lacing their fingers together. His hand was warm against hers, making her whole body seem to heat up. He rubbed her fingers with his thumb, pausing for a second over her ring finger and then moving on.

Namine bit her bottom lip, a wave of the lonlieness from New York she'd felt wash over her. She hated the feeling. She was confused as to why she was suddenly feeling it again. She sighed and found herself staring at Rikua again. Even though he was standing right in front of her... She wanted more. She needed more.

Riku seemed to feel the same way, too, because as soon as he was sure nobody was around to watch (avoiding another public display of affection would be smart) he let go of her hand and grabbed a hold of her, wrapping his arms around her with so much force that it was hard for Namine to breath. She hugged him back with just as much force, though.

"I love you..." Riku whispered in her ear, burrying his face in her hair.

Namine took in the smell of TAG and coffee coming from his shirt. She nuzzled her head in his neck and suddenly felt comfortable again, there in his arms. "I love you too."

There was a silence. A sweet one.

Riku pulled away a little, and moved his hands to her hips, and held onto them firmly while he leaned his forehead against Namine's. Namine cupped Riku's left cheek with the palm of her hand while her free arm was wrapped around his neck tightly. She smiled and bit her bottom lip softly when Riku leaned in closer. Namine always loved the short moment before their lips would touch, when her stomach did back flips. It was almost as great as the kissing itself.

Namine closed her eyes and leaning into his chest, kissing him back when he pushed her back against the railing gently, tightening his grip on her hips. Namine giggled against his lips and pulled away for a second, her eyes glowing with happiness. Everything about her radiated. Namine let go of his face and Riku lifted both his hands to her cheeks, pulling her face into his again sweetly, pressing his lips against hers with this passion. Namine knew he'd been waiting all day for this, too.

Her heart pounded against her chest. If it were possible to be any more in love with Riku, she might explode.

Life at this very moment seemed amazing.

Riku pulled back only a little bit, letting his lips brush softly against hers when he spoke. "Tired?" He asked, suddenly realizing that nearly everyone on the boat was probably sleeping right now.

"Hmmm." Namine hummed when Riku made a small trail of kisses down her neck.

Riku looked up again, and their eyes locked.

"Are you tired?"

"I asked first."

Namine giggled. Namine kissed him again, giving him her answer. Riku caressed her cheeks and smiled, kissing every inch of her face. The corners of her eyes, her nose, her cheeks, her forehead, all of it. Namine drew a small heart on his back when their lips met a fourth time, and locked. Absolutely wrapped up in the moment, nothing could be more perfect.

000

Roxas and Kim were playing, like, their 50th game of pool in the arcade, located in a room pretty close to the pool. Out of all the games they'd played, Roxas lost everything miserably. Was there no end tot he torture? Why the hell was Kim so good at everything?

"I win." Kim threw back her head and laughed. "Again."

Roxas mumbled something under his breath and set the pool table up for another game. "Yeah, Yeah..."

Kim leaned against the wall and watched him, tapping her foot on the ground. If she had to play another easy game of pool, she might go insane. "We should do something else."

"Not until I win!" Roxas said stubbornly.

Kim rolled her eyes and thought about all the other things she could be doing right now; reading, swimming, eating, star gazing, sleeping. "Don't be such a kid."

Roxas scowled and stepped aside, ready for her to break. Kim sighed and pushed off the wall, but refused to play again.

"No thanks." She hissed, walking right past him and headed for the dock.

"Hey, wait!" Roxas ran after her. Once he caught up, he followed her up to the front of the boat (where only a few people were at this time of night) and sat next to her in one of the dark blue chairs, the long kind you'd find next to pools of on the beach.

Kim took a long, deep breath and relaxed, glad Roxas wasn't complaining like a two year old. If he wanted to hang around her, they were going to do what she wanted.

000

"Oh My-" Selphie was cut off.

"Freaking GOD!" Kairi finished her sentence. The hotel they were staying at was probably the most fancy they'd ever seen. Not even the hotel they'd stayed at in Vegas could beat it. Heck, the Davenport hotel couldn't beat it and that place was almost literally an f'ing palace! This was definitely not your typical one-week-in-the-Ramada.

Selphie danced, spinning on her toes. "This is so cool!"

Olette stared in awe, clasping both her hands together. "I can't even imagine what it's like inside..."

They were standing just outside of the hotel. The hotel, they were told, was in walking distance from the beach. And for a good reason; they were here for Blitz Ball. The beach is usually where the team practiced, anyways.

Namine held tightly onto Riku's hand, excitement and eagerness building up in her chest. Just thinking about staying here with Riku almost made her melt into a puddle of sappy Namine'ness. Yeah, they wouldn't be around each other 24/7 like in Hawaii, but who cares? Look at this place! Something told her she'd get along just fine without her boyfriend for an hour or two a day.

Riku squeezed her hand back, giving her an excited, bright smile. He looked just as enthused as she did.

"Oh man," Wakka gawked, "We're gonna have a great time here, ya?"

"Blitz Ball and Royal hotels," Tidus smiled, showing off his teeth, "doesn't get much better than this..."

"Come on," The coach urged for the teenagers to move it, "we don't have all day!"

Once they were in, they admired everything about the hotel until they were up to floor 13, where they stepped into a decorated hallway with a row of large rooms.

"Four to a room." The coach directed, not really caring who was in what room with whoever. He could care less. As long as his team was ready to beat the crap out of this competition.

Namine and Riku froze. Four?

They followed Sora and Kairi into a room, just to see what they looked like. Jaws immediately dropped to the floor. The rooms were VERY large and lavish. Most everything int he room was colored ether gold, silver, white, grey, or black. Plain colors, but they mixed brilliantly together. There were two beds; both king sized. One of the beds was colored with gold and white, while the other was black, grey, and silver. The carpet was a simple but elegant white, and the cheer curtains hanging over the windows were gold, and had ruffles all along the inside. there was a small fridge in one of the cabinets under the plasma T.V, that was built into the wall. The view from the window was breathtaking and everything in the room was put together perfectly. They could definitely live here comfortably for the next week.

"You can room with us." Sora suggested, turning around to see them still gawking at everything.

"Yeah," Namine shrugged, looking up at Riku. Why not? It was four to a room anyways, why not share it with her best friend? And she was sure Riku wouldn't mind Sora being there two. Riku'd told her before how close the two of them were. "Sure."

Riku nodded his head. "Sounds good."

Namine and Riku took the bed with the thick, black and white blanket and silver pillows while Sora and Kairi took the other, which looked the same only different colors. There were two walk-in closets on each end of the room that were completely empty. They unpacked and within the hour, everything was set and perfect. The alarm was set for the guys on 9:00 A.m, because that's how early they had to get up every day for more training.

The T.V. was already on and Namine and Kairi explored the shelves, cabinets, and counters on the opposite side of the room, close to the door. They were loaded with food, and not just a bunch of crap. Good food. And there was still a buffet on the lower level anyways. This place had everything.

Kairi peeked inside the bathroom, which was almost as big as the bedroom. The bathtub was just a little bigger than the average hot tub and had jets and bubble switches, all the good stuff. Towels hung from the wall next to the long marble topped counter, with a sink and soap and all that stuff on it.

Riku had been looking through a book that was set on an end table next to the bed, and started telling Sora about how they could order a Playstation 3 or Xbox 360, any of that stuff, for the week for free since they were from the Blitz Ball team. Even room service was free. So were all the movies you could order on T.V, and some of the stuff wasn't even in theaters yet!

Sora laid flat on his bed, lacing his fingers behind his head. "I feel like a rock star already," he commented.

Suddenly, the coach walked into the room and told Riku and Sora they had a meeting on the 5th floor in the lounge in 10 minutes. They nodded and the coach left.

"How long do you think you'll be gone?" Namine asked. "Because I was kind of thinking-"

"I know, I'll be back soon." Riku assured. "And after that we can go wherever you want."

Namine smiled and waved as the two boys left. Kairi gave Sora a quick hug and with that they were gone.

"Hey," Sora started, tapping Riku on the shoulder as they waited for the elevator to reach floor number five, "I thought you were broke. How're you going to take Namine anywhere?" Sora didn't looked concerned at all, just kind of amused.

"Oh yeah," Riku laughed, "I forgot to tell you. Before I left my parents house after I helped Kyle move in, he gave me a whole bunch of money. I didn't want to take it but he made me, saying 'if you don't spend it on yourself, I'm most likely going to spend it on beer, and that wouldn't be good, would it?"

"How much?" Sora asked.

"A lot," Riku shook his head, "i didn't count yet."

"Oh." Sora folded his arms. "It's too bad he didn't give you the money sooner."

"Yeah."

They were walking into the lounge now, and the meeting began once everyone else and the coach arrived. It wasn't anything serious, they were just going over things and reviewing stuff.

It took a little bit longer then they thought it would, though...

000

Namine was just hanging around in the hallway next to her room, staring at paintings on the wall and large amounts of flowers in vases. Everything about this place was amazing. There wasn't a single thing out of place.

Interrupting her thoughts, though, was Kim marching down the hall way; right at her. Her blood froze for a second when she turned around to see Kim still approaching her.

"Kim?" She asked, making a face. Kim's long, blackish/brownish hair fell all over the place and partially in front of her eyes. Her fists were clenched and her entire body was soaking wet. This couldn't be good news.

"I'm going to kill that lame excuse for an athlete," Kim mumbled, thankfully, marching right past Namine without even noticing her existance. Namine sighed; the last thing she wanted was a fight.

I went to a meeting at Applebees the other day, and our boss let everyone try all the new stuff we were putting on the menu. It was actually a pretty fun meeting, too. We played a game about all the new stuff (jeprody), and he showed us a funny video that, somehow, had something to do with what the meeting was about.

Oh, and I just remembered. I'll be away at camp again next week, so don't kill me bacuse the update will take just a little longer than a week. Just so you know :D and i made this chapter a bit longer to make up for it (I hope it did).
