On Saturday (the day after Roxas and Hayner's fight) Naminé and Roxas planned to meet at the library to do some math extra credit together at noon. Naminé arrived exactly at noon, but Roxas wasn't there. She got up and picked a romance book from a shelf and sat back on the couch and started to read.

Naminé had already read through half of the book at her house, in summer vacation and flipped to the 16th chapter. She had gone through one chapter before she looked at the clock. Fifteen minutes had gone by. He stood me up! That little… Naminé's thought was interrupted.

"Hi Naminé." A weak voice said. She looked up, and Roxas looked tired, weak, and well, beat-up. "C'mon let's do some math." He limped to a table. It looked like he was getting weaker each step.

"Okay." She got up and followed him to the table with their textbooks. She reached for her book from the middle of the table and opened it, but Roxas slowly (and painfully) reached for his book and revealed the bruises on his arms. "Oh my gosh!" She grabbed his arm and pulled up his sleeve to reveal another bruise.

"Oww!" Roxas yelped in pain.

"Hold on I'll be right back!" And Naminé bolted out the door and a minute later came back with bags of ice and cooled compresses in her arms. "Who did this to you!" She started putting the bags of ice and compresses on his arms and legs.

"Ouch!" Roxas jolted in pain. "It was nothing, really. Hayner and I got in a fight yesterday. Ow!"

"Deal with the pain… Was it after I left?"

"Yeah."

"Was it because of me in anyway?"

"No." Roxas lied and winced.

"Hold still…Okay I'm done now." She rolled his sleeves back down and smiled at him. Roxas smiled weakly back. He was in a lot of pain right now, but when he was with Naminé, he could hardly feel a thing. (somewhat) "Will you be able to walk back to your dorm? I bet you'd be more comfortable there."

"Let me try." Naminé put one of his arms around her and slowly helped him get up. They walked a few steps before Naminé couldn't hold his weight and collapsed with him on the carpet.

"Ouch." Naminé moaned. She got up immediately. "Uh…Where's a librarian when you need one?"

"I there was a teacher conference the whole day, today." Roxas said as he tried to get up. Naminé help him sit up.

"I help you to the couch." She pulled out a chair so he could lean on it as he walked, kind of like a cane. When he lied down on the couch, Naminé replaced the ice bags and compresses and sat next to Roxas on the carpet.

"You think there's a nurse around?"

"You got a nurse here." She smiled and Roxas smiled back. He yawned. "You know you can sleep. It's Saturday, you should be sleeping anyway."

"Nah…I can make it."

"Well then I'll get you food, you must be hungry."

"You're spoiling me."

"Okay hamburgers it is!" And Naminé left.

"I gotta thank Hayner for beating me up." Roxas yawned again. "I'll just close my eyes for a sec."

A few minutes later, Naminé got back with a couple of hamburgers and sodas, Roxas was fast asleep, snoring slightly. She laughed and put the food on the end table. "Now time for reading." Naminé opened her book and began reading.

When Roxas woke up, it was about 2:00 P.M. and shifted his head a little. He saw (or felt) Naminé was leaning on his shoulder, sleeping, still sitting on the carpet. He wanted to sit up from the couch, but didn't want to wake her. He pushed off the bags and compressesbecause his arms and legs were practically numb. Roxas also noticed a book on Naminé's lap and picked it up and started reading it.

"Olette, do you know where Naminé is?" Kairi asked still staring at her laptop.

"She went to do math extra credit with Roxas, remember?" Olette said putting on her shoes, about to leave.

"Does it really take two hours to do extra credit?"

"Well she must be having fun. Heh. I'm going to go to the cafeteria and eat. You want anything?"

"No." Kairi saw Sora was online.

PrincessofHeart: Is Roxas with you?
KeybladeMaster: No, he's with Naminé at the library.

Kairi sighed.

PrincessofHeart: Does it really take 2 hours to do homework?
KeybladeMaster: Stop worrying Kairi. I thought we were the matchmakers. So let them be.
PrincessofHeart: Fine but if they're not here by 4:00 we're looking for them.
KeybladeMaster: Party pooper.

KeybladeMaster has signed out.

"Sora, you are such a weirdo."

Roxas closed the book and left it on his lap. He closed his eyes again, but didn't feel like sleeping. "Roxas?" Naminé called him name softly. He opened his eyes. She was standing up now. "You want to eat now? The food might be cold now, but…"

"I don't mind." He sat up and she handed him a burger and both ate theirs, (though it was cold)and drank their sodas. It was about 3:30 now. "Can you help me to my dorm now?"

"Yeah." They threw their trash away and Naminé put Roxas' arm around her and helped him get up. She felt he was much stronger now because less weight was on her. They left the library and headed toward the boys' dorm, leaving Naminé's book behind.

"Roxas!" Sora yelled as Roxas and Naminé finally made it back to his dorm. Sora helped Roxas on his other side limp to his bed.

"Where's Hayner?"

"Must be with Olette or something. You okay?"

"Yeah. Naminé's been taking care of me. Thanks."

"Anytime. I gotta go. Give Hayner a punch in the face for me."

"Oh I will. See you." Naminé smiled and left the room.

"So Roxas what took so long?" Sora asked.

"Nothing, Naminé helped me to a couch and I slept and then she slept on my shoulder. Then we ate and she brought me back here."

"Yeah, nothing. Did you even do any math work?"

"…No."

Sykic: Why is Roxas so sore and Hayner not as much? Hayner hit him more. DUH! And math extra credit? Well I couldn't think of anything. And only Sora had homework, remember?... :P
