shiner980: yes, I think roses are used too much these days… so I decided… TULIPS! Tulips are pretty… ive never seen an actual one before… :

Read and Review!

"Roxas, are you okay?" I quietly ask as we slowly ate our ice cream.

"Yeah, just kind of surprised Namine would do that to me… I mean, I've treated her so well." He replied, the spark still gone from his dull eyes.

"If it makes you feel better, Sora cheated on me as well with Namine, so at least we know how the other feels like." I gave a small smile.

"But HE did that to you? You're so pretty and cute and—" Roxas clapped his hand over his mouth, realizing what he just said while I just blushed madly.

An uncomfortable silence followed after.

"So… um, how did you break your leg anyways? I see it's getting better." Roxas asked.

"Well… Sora was pulling me along since it was pouring like hell, and then a car came along the corner and hit me instead of Sora." I explained.

"So… it was his entire fault because he never looked back to check if you were okay." Roxas nodded, understanding.

"Wow. You're creepy. You understand me?" I asked incredulously.

"Well, that's what smart people do. They understand. It's called logic, Kairi." Roxas grinned, the spark back in his shining eyes. Roxas and I chatted for a few more hours until Roxas asks…

"Are you… um…"

"Am I a… retard?" I laugh at his sad attempt to ask me out.

Roxas glared at me playfully and replied, "Yes, are you a retard that has nothing to do Saturday night?"

"Yes, I am a retard that agrees to go on your so-called retarded date that you asked me on." I smirk.

"The only thing that makes a retarded date is you." He grins back at me.

"At least I'm not going around asking people if they're a retard!" I jokingly shot back.

"Fine, you win Kairi." He sighs in defeat.

"And as a winner, I should get a prize!" I tell him cockily.

"Saturday night at 8 P.M. will be your prize." He smiles and leans in on me.

I lean forward, and Roxas and I are just about to kiss when…

He leans back. At this sad moment, I was puckering my lips and falling.

AGAIN.

Luckily, I don't hit the ground but Roxas catches my arms and I kiss… his six-pack. Which is totally hot by the way. But not the place you want your lips to touch.

"Someone's a bit too eager to get their prize." Roxas laughed, ego swelling up by the second. I rolled my eyes and punched him in the arm.

"Not eager. Just ready to accept it." I retorted.

"Whatever, Kairi. My six-pack says thank you, by the way." He said, with a twinkle in his eye.

"Let's just go." I giggled as I shut the door in Roxas' face. The last thing I heard was a muffled,

"Oka—!"

At the park—

"Roxas!" I shrieked as I ran away from him. "Stop it!"

"But it's fun!" he yelled back, gaining on me."

"Tickling me is NOT FUN!" I yelled back and I stopped for breath. Man, I better start working out. Ben and Jerry are making me heavy…

"Ahhhh!" I shriek again as I feel someone's hands tickle me in my side.

"Alright, alright. I'll stop." I turn around to see Roxas' smirk in victory. We both sat down on a park bench, looking up at the stars. The memories of Sora and I flooded back, and I remembered the wish.

Screw the wish.

This was Roxas. He understood what I went through.

"Roxas?" I ask him.

"Yeah, what's up? What do you need?" he asked as he looked at me.

"Ever wonder how stars are formed?" I say as I look up and see the lovely stars.

"Well…" Roxas pondered. "First, the star is part of a nebula, which is a cloud of gas and dust. Then, the nebula contracts to form a protostar. After that, it grows to be a giant or super giant star. Then, the star explodes in an explosion called a supernova. After, it can form a black hole, white dwarf or black dwarf, or a neutron star." He said to me.

"No not that way. The other way." I laugh.

"You could have told me that before I gave my explanation." He sighed.

"It's called imagination." I explain slowly.

"But why use your imagination when you know the facts already?" he asked me.

"Because number one, facts are super boring and dull. And number two, imagination is more fun and creative. Plus, how do you know how a star is born?" I argued. "It's not lie you really did go up into space and saw that a star was born!"

"True, but just because you had a GPA of 4.0 and higher your whole life doesn't mean you're smarter than a team of scientists!" He said back.

"The team of scientists could be better liars than I am." I shot back.

"You are one stubborn person, Kairi." Roxas pouted and then laughed. I smile and look back up at the stars.

"I think I star is formed when two shooting stars intertwine with each other."

"Uhh… then how is a shooting star formed?" he laughed at me when I hit him instead of replying.

"We should go." I tell Roxas.

"Alright, let's go then."

At Kairi's house (Roxas has gone home too)—

I was so fantastically excited for my date Saturday. So excited, that on Saturday, I called my old friend, Selphie Tilmitt.

"Hey Selph… I've got a date Saturday night and no clothes to wear!"

"Be right there, Kai."

A/N: Yes I know, completely pointless chapter. I just needed something between the 'fight' and the 'date' thingy. I died. I'm starting to have a majorwriter's block, I can't think of anything. And yesterday I tried to upload my story butit wouldn't let me, so I had to wait untiltoday. :( Please review though!
