Disclaimer: I do not own any of the characters used in this story. I don't think I'd be on if I was the creator of the Hamtaro characters.

I would just like to say that this is my first fic and I probally did something wrong while posting it here for all to read. Like the genres. So just leave a review if I've done anything completely wrong.

Well, here it is!

Slumber

His sight started to blur as hazy forms crowded around him, the sound of their voices not making there way completely to his ears. One word; or was it a name?; continued to echo around him from the beings above him. Roberto.

"Roberto!" a cry came from a figure that came completely into his line of vision, blocking the others from view. "Roberto, hold on. It'll be alright. Robert--"

Blackness was now all that he could see, and immediately afterward even the voices dulled into nothing.

The last thing he heard was a soft sob from a female sounding voice, whimpering "I'm so sorry, this is all my fault. Oh, Roberto..."

Hello, my name is Laura. You probably already know who I am, only now I am in grade eight, three years older than how you most likely remember me.

Well, if you know me from back then, then you don't know me anymore. You see, Travis and I are now dating; Kana and I have grown apart; and sadly, Hamtaro is no longer with us. Hamsters don't live very long in the first place, but I was still heartbroken when one day I woke up, and he didn't.

During that time, Travis comforted me as best as he could, and after I'd gotten over Hamtaro's death, I was ready to get back to my normal life.

The first kiss I shared with Travis was amazing. It was after one of Travis's soccer games, in the middle of grade seven, and he had scored the winning goal. Obviously, Kana and I were there, and I ran immediately up to Travis, going to give him a "Wow Travis! Good game!" or something along those lines, as usual; only, after I had ran to him, he twirled me around and placed a short, warm kiss on my lips, right there in front of all those people. I can sure say that I will never, ever forget it, as with everybody else.

Kana, as I said earlier, is no longer as close to me as we were in the fifth grade. I don't really know what it is that happened, but we each grew up and forgot about each other.

Oh? What was that? Oh... Roberto... well, as the months went by, we each matured and grew out of our bickering habits. Not to say we never bickered, quite the opposite actually.

A while back, I actually did fall for that rosy haired boy, but it was just a silly crush is all; it only lasted for about a week anyways. After Travis had first kissed me though, I caught a glimpse of Roberto, looking awfully dishearted. When I asked him what the matter was, he just pushed me away roughly, with a snide comment of "None of your business, Laura," leaving me very pissed off at him. But I still remember how I had once almost drowned in those eyes of his.

I wish I had given more effort in trying to befriend him. It's too late now... he is trapped in a never endless slumber. No he's not dead, but he might as well be.

Just, let me sit down for a moment. I'm going to tell you about what happened to Roberto; how it was all my fault, and you will see why it is that I will never fully forgive myself for it...

Review please and tell me what I need to fix and such. And just a warning, I'm really bad at updating. Wish me luck!
