Chapter 19: First Day Of Summer (The End)
Disclaimer: I do not own Kingdom Hearts, Final Fantasy or any of it's characters.
Notes: -Gasp- The last chapter. Can you believe it? Well I would give you all a sappy speach, but I will be making one extra capter. (Thank-you and Epilogue) So, you'll get your speech then. I will be starting a new fic called 'Memory' soon, It's another Roxas x Namine fic so keep an eye out for it, Okay?
Namine awoke with a jolt as Kairi shook her awake.
"Come on Namine! Get up!" Kairi pleaded
"What do you want..? Go away!" Namine mumbled sleepily as she swatted at Kairi's face.
"Come on sleepy head, we're all going out for ice cream!"
"Who?" Namine yawned.
"Me, Rikku, Roxas and Sora."
"What's the occasion?"
"It's the first day of summer, remember? We're celebrating." Kairi cheered (A/N: Yes, now it's summer )
"Bring me back a sundae, I'm sleeping in." Namine turned over on her side and snuggled underneath her blanket.
"You're coming wether you like it or not!" Kairi ripped the blankets off Namine's bed and smirked.
"Ugh.." She moaned
"Get up! Get up! Get up!" Kairi said in a sing-song voice.
"Fine! But you're in for it tomorrow morning.. I swear." Namine threatened
"Whatever, now hurry up and get dressed, everyone's waiting outside!"
Namine hopped out of bed and shot Kairi a death glare, But Kairi just smiled.
---
After Namine had gotten dressed she and Kairi walked out the front door to see all their friends waiting patiently.
"Yay! You're up! Come on, Ice cream, hurry!" Rikku said excitedly
"Hello to you to Rikku." Namine laughed.
"Oh sorry, Hi Nami!" Rikku calmed down a bit.
"Hey." Roxas smiled at her.
"Hey Roxas." Namine smiled back.
Roxas gave her a kiss, causing both their faces to turn scarlet afterwards.
Namine looked over at Kairi who looked perfectly cheerful, of course if this were a few months back, she might have ripped Roxas's face off or something.
"Well what's the hold up!" Rikku said impatiently.
She grabbed Namine's hand and began dragging her down the street, everyone else running behind them, struggling to keep up.
"Whoa!" Namine yelled as Rikku skidded to a stop in front of the ice cream parlor.
The same one where she had met Roxas a few months back.
The rest of the gang came slowly behind them, faces bright red, and struggling to catch their breath.
"I..learned..something..today." Kairi huffed
"What's..that?" Sora asked.
"Don't..mess..with..Rikku..when..she..wants..ice-cream.." Kairi managed to say.
They all started to laugh but moaned in pain.
"It hurts to laugh." Roxas moaned.
"Oh, come on you big babies, let's go!" Rikku rushed inside and the others followed.
They all had gotten their ice cream and sat down at a circular table with five chairs.
"This is delicious!" Rikku smiled happily. They had all gotten sea-salt ice-cream, well everyone except for Rikku who wanted to be original and got a hot fudge sundae.
"Yep, thanks for paying Rikku." Namine said.
"No problem." Rikku smiled.
"Hey guys.. Do you think we'll always be friends?" Rikku questioned.
They all looked up at her with their eyebrows quirked.
"What makes you ask that?" Namine asked.
"Well I don't know.. I.."
"Don't worry, of course we will Rikku!" Kairi cut in.
"Yeah." Sora and Roxas chimed in.
"Thanks." Rikku said.
"For what?" Namine asked.
"For being my first real friends."
"Aw, Rikku, you make me feel so bad!" Kairi exclaimed, giving Rikku a hug.
"Don't feel bad! I'm just saying, Thank you, because now I know what friendship is like."
They all smiled and returned to their ice-creams.

Outside the ice-cream parlor.. (After they finished their ice-cream)..
They all stood outside of the ice-cream place and shared ideas.
"Where should we go now?" Kairi asked.
"The mall?" Namine suggested
"No!" Both boys shouted.
Namine giggled. "All right, do you have any ideas Rikku?" She asked.
"The candy store?" Rikku suggested.
"No!" Everyone shouted in unison.
"Sheesh, fine." Rikku grumbled
"I have an idea." Kairi said
"What?" They all asked
"The beach!"
"Yeah! Okay!" Everyone agreed
They all dashed home to change and agreed to meet at the pier on the beach.
---
Later at the pier..
Namine and Kairi stood on the pier and gazed out at the ocean.
"I love the beach.." Namine murmured. "It reminds me of home."
"Yeah, I know what you mean." Kairi reminisced.
"Hey guys we're going in the water, wanna come?" Rikku called, snapping them out of their trance.
"Sure." They said without hesitation, it had been a while since they had been in the ocean, and they missed it.
Both the girls had a lot of fun in the water, not counting when Sora and Roxas chucked them both into the water, and all Rikku did was point and laugh.
---
Later in the sunset..
"It's getting late, look the sun's starting to set." Namine pointed out
"Yeah we should get home before we get in trouble." Kairi said.
"Okay, well let's go." Rikku said.
"I had a lot of fun today, thanks guys." Namine said.
"I had a lot of fun too." Rikku said, everyone nodded.
The five then linked their arms together and began walking off the beach, but the moment was ruined when Sora tripped and took everyone down with him.
They all laughed and brushed them selves off.
"Good going Sora." Kairi joked.
"Sorry." He scratched the back of his head embarrassedly.
"It's okay Sora, you can't help it that you have big feet." Namine joked.
Everyone laughed and walked off the beach, they were headed for Namine and Kairi's house first.
"How about we go to the beach again tomorrow?" Rikku asked as she walked Namine and Kairi to their front door.
"Okay, meet at the pier at 1:00?" Namine asked.
"Yup, sounds good." Rikku said.
"Bye Rikku, Bye Roxas, Bye Sora." Namine and Kairi both said.
They waved good-bye to their friends and closed their front door.
It was hard to believe it was already summer, it seemed like just yesterday they had moved to Twilight Town, Even thought they weren't fond of it at first, now they never wanted to leave.
Even though it would take a little getting used to, Namine and Kairi felt like they could finally call this place, home.
