I've been having these weird thoughts lately, like is any of this for real or not?

Namine had woken up early that morning, before Roxas. She sat in her chair with her sketchpad in her lap. She was quietly sketching Roxas. She had almost finished when he began to wake up.

" Don't move, I'm sketching you."

" Oh, good morning to you too." He said with a playful smile.

" I'm almost done."

Roxas starred at Namine. He couldn't believe how beautiful she was. He watched as her sapphire eyes glanced from him back to her drawing. She continued to do this until she finally announced she was done. She got up and showed him her picture. He admired how wells he could draw.

" It's very good, I like it a lot."

Namine smiled and closed her book. She was glad he liked it. She decided she wanted to put it into a frame. She rummaged through her things until she found one. She framed then set it on top of her dresser. She admired it for awhile then crawled into bed with Roxas.

" I don't want to get up." He said as she nuzzled his neck.

" We have to, we promised we would meet Cybella and Zarek at the beach, remember?"

" Oh, I forgot about that. Well, we better get up then."

They got up and got dressed. They quickly ate and started towards the beach. It seemed to Namine that it was going to rain.

" Maybe the beach wasn't such a good idea." She said as she scanned the sky.

"Who cares? It's more fun to swim in the rain anyway."

He grabbed Namine's hand and dragged her over to Cybella and Zarek. They all greeted each other casually. The boys went off into the water while the girls sat on the beach talking.

" Well, I think you're really lucky, Roxas is a great guy. I wish that Zarek was more like Roxas."

" I know it's just, well you and Zarek are normal. Roxas and I….we're just different."

Namine got up and joined the boys in the water. She thought it was a little chilly to be swimming.

" It's freezing in here." She said as Roxas made his way to her.

" Oh, I'm sorry, would you like me to warm you up?" He said with a playful smile.

He wrapped his arms around Namine and rested his chin in between her shoulder and neck.

" If you want we can go back to the house a snuggled up on the couch."

Namine liked this idea. She agreed and said good bye to their friends. Roxas offered Namine a piggyback ride to the house. As they were on their way back to the house she noticed and boy who resembled Roxas wearing a black hooded coat.

" Roxas, put me down."

He set her down and she ran after the boy. By the time she got to where she had saw him, nobody was there. She searched the sight for any clues where he had gone to but finally gave up and went back to Roxas.

" What was that about?" He asked curiously.

" Oh, nothing, just thought I saw somebody."

They reached the house and Roxas grabbed Namine and pulled her onto the couch. He kissed her avidly. He began to kiss down her neck causing her to get chills up and down her back. She ran her fingers through his hair and gentle nibbled on his ear. He stopped for a moment and looked deep into her eyes, as if he was searching for something. They just sat there like that, not blinking, not moving. He finally reached foreword and kissed her gently on the forehead. She smiled and laid her head on his chest and listened to him breath. She smiled and closed her eyes as he played with her hair.

" Namine?"

" Yeah?"

" I love you."

" I love you too"

" No, I mean, not any kind of love that the world has ever known. When you look at me, I can feel a fire inside me. Sometimes I just stare at you, thinking about how lucky I am. I mean….it's a feeling I can't put into words."

Namine nodded. She knew what he was talking about. She felt the same way. He kissed her on the head and leaned back, one arm behind his head and one arm around Namine. Namine felt so comfortable; soon she fell asleep and was dreaming.

She was in an all black room. She couldn't see anything, suddenly she heard a voice.

" Welcome Namine, good to see you decided to join us."

" Who are you?" Namine said trying to hide the panic in her voice.

" It doesn't matter who we are, what matters is what we came to show you. Go ahead look through that window.

Namine walked slowly to the window. She gasped at what she saw. Sora and Kairi were lying lifeless on the ground in a small room. She began to pound on the glass screaming their names.

" No use, they can't hear you."

" What have you done to them?"

" Don't worry, they won't remember once they wake up safe on Destiny Island."

Namine woke up in a cold sweat. She was still on her couch with Roxas. She looked around the room. Nothing seemed to had change. It must have been a bad dream. She shook it off and looked for her sketchpad. She quickly sketched out what she had seen. Even if it wasn't real, she wanted to remember it. She woke up Roxas and told him about her dream. He listened carefully then stopped her in the middle.

" Look Namine, don't stress over you dreams, I'm sure everything is fine with them. I think you're making a big deal out of nothing."

She was about to protest when she decided it wasn't worth it. No matter what she said, he was never going to understand it. It felt so real, but she didn't want to believe it.

She got up and fixed her and Roxas something to eat. They ate quietly and didn't look at each other. They knew exactly when silence was needed. Namine couldn't believe Roxas wasn't taking this seriously. Roxas couldn't believe Namine was taking it seriously. They both cleaned up their stuff and Roxas went back to the couch while Namine began to draw again. Things continued this way for a while until Namine broke the silence.

" Roxas why don't you believe me?"

" I do believe you, I just don't think it's serious."

Namine closed her sketchbook and made her way to the bedroom. Roxas soon followed her. He climbed into bed with her and said, " Look I'm sorry, maybe you're right about this, but how are we ever going to know?"

Namine didn't answer him she just closed her eyes and went to sleep.

No matter how fast light travels it finds the darkness has always got there first, and is waiting for it.
