- Chapter Two: Floating in Bliss -

I smelled the ocean air and head the gulls cry as they glided through the air. I opened my eyes and saw her standing there in front of me, as radiant and beautiful as I remembered.

"Namine!" I embraced her so tight. So tight that I swore no one could have torn us apart at that moment. I had waited so long to see her. I had no way to keep track of time, so it could have been years, or maybe just a couple of days.

"Roxas! It's so good to see you!" She nuzzled into my shoulder and I felt her starting to cry, "How long do we have?"

"I'm not sure…"

"Where am I?" I asked out loud to the darkness. I felt lost in myself. I felt so cold and alone all of a sudden. Than it hit me.

All this time, it must have been Roxas. This is where he was now, always deep in the darkness of nonexistence. It must be so lonely down here all by himself; no friends, no family, no one to love. Some how he must have found a way to switch places with me, but would he want to do that? Who could he possibly want to see?

"Let's go do something, Namine!" I stood up and pulled her up with me. I looked around, it was truly a beautiful beach, but this isn't where I wanted to be.

"What should we do?" She held on to my hand tight and also looked around.

"Let's go home!" I knew that the door was here somewhere. I started walking up the beach and searching every nook from where I was.

"Home? Isn't this technically our home?" She looked at me with a worried glance.

"THIS WILL NEVER BE MY HOME!" I shouted at her. She looked startled and I felt a twinge of guilt, "I didn't mean to yell at you Namine, I'm sorry," I brought her close and kissed her softly. I guess she hadn't been expecting it, because she froze up for a quick second before gently kissing back.

"Hey you two! Have you seen Sora and Kairi?" I heard a familiar voice and looked up. There stood Riku, "YOU! What are you doing here? What have you done to Sora?" He stood there in a fighting stance, his very posture demanded answers.

I held Namine's hand tighter, "I haven't done anything with him or to him, honestly. I just wanted to see Namine. I wanted it so bad, and the next thing I knew I was out here."

That's it, he liked that girl Namine, Kairi's Nobody. Suddenly I got it. That's why I had been wanting to see Kairi so much lately. He must have missed her a lot. I understood where he was coming from, being locked away, not being able to be with the one you love, yet knowing they are so very near. It must be pure hell for him, and poor Namine. Maybe that's what was happening! They were on the outside right now, being with each other, like they wanted. Their feelings must have been so strong to force Kairi and I inside, and let them be on the outside.

I was okay with it though, because even Nobody's need love. Than again technically they weren't Nobodies anymore, they were whole, the just hadn't separated themselves yet. Now what would be so powerful as to change someone's destiny? Well maybe not change it, but strengthen it?

"Okay, I understand now," said Riku with a grim look on his face. I had explained to him how much I had wanted to see Namine, because we had promised to see each other again.

"Thank you, we'll go back as soon as we are finished talking about everything," said Namine. I had forgotten how sweet and intelligent her voice sounded. I didn't want to ever forget again.

"No, I don't want to just fade away again. Especially after having spent so much time with you! That would be ten times worse than having none of this happen!" I started to cry again.

"We can't just lock them away forever, Roxas," she frowned at me.

"But…but I still haven't done everything I've wanted too. I haven't seen Pence, Olette, or Hayner. I haven't gone to the tunnel of darkness…I haven't said goodbye to Axel…" I cried even harder. I felt so good to finally be able to cry my own tears.

"Hmmm, this just proves that neither of you are Nobodies," Riku turned his back to us. He seemed to be staring at a small island just off the shore, "Maybe…if we can make fate strong enough, you and Namine can be together, and I could have Sora back."

"Think Sora think, what can change destiny?" I thought as hard as I could , "That's it! The papou fruit!"

"Roxas, Namine, follow me. I want you to have a papou…"

Yay! A solution is at hand! What will happen after they eat it though? Oh who knows? Wait, I do, and I'll tell you guys in the next chapter! Stay tuned!
