Roxas sat on the bench at Tram Common anxiously. I've gotta ask her if she knows me the way I seem to know her. He saw her behind the Moogle Shop and walked up to her. "Hey, Namine," he greeted.

Namine jumped a bit at the sudden sound of his voice and turned around. "Oh," she breathed, "Hello, Roxas."

"S-sorry," Roxas apologized, "Did I scare you? I didn't mean to."

"Just a little, but you don't need to apologize. I was looking the wrong way." She blushed a bit and giggled. "Should we start on the tour? Or would you rather wait?"

"Uh...no. Lets start. So as you may know, this is Tram Common. That's the Moogle Shop, Accessory Shop, and Armory Shop." Roxas pointed each one out as he introduced them to Namine. "You can mostly buy everything you need here. As long as you have enough munny that is."

"Sounds cool," Namine commented. She looked up at him and flashed a sweet smile. "I heard of a place called Station Heights. Do you know where that is? I'd really like to check it out."

"Know it? I live there!" Roxas lead the way. Ask her, ask her, ask her already dangit! He looked down at Namine and asked, "Hey, Namine? Have we met before? I mean like...before yesterday."

"Why do you ask that?" Namine asked back.

"When I first saw you, I felt as if I knew you. And, I know this might sound weird and all but, I've also seen you in my dreams." When he saw her confused expression, his heart started beating rapidly. "Just asking if you felt that way when you first saw me."

"I guess so," Namine replied, looking thoughtful, "Maybe that's why I talked to you like you were an old friend. And, to tell the truth, you were also in most of my dreams. But I rarely sleep, so I don't see you often. All I know is that you look like him."

"Who?"

"I can't remember his name. My memories are foggy. He had spiky brown hair, deep blue eyes...a brave heart..." Her expression softened. "And a keyblade."

"A keyblade?" Roxas looked at her. "Is it that silver thing Sora holds and beats up things with?" He stopped. "Huh? Where'd Sora come from? I don't know anyone by that name."

"He's that boy!" Namine squeaked, sounding excited, "The boy I was just talking about. That's his name! And yes, that's a keyblade. HIS keyblade!" She calmed down. "It's strange. We know these things, yet, we don't know what we're talking about. They just come to us."

"That is strange." Roxas found that they were at Station Heights and said, "Well, time to get back to the tour, alright? then we can talk about everything afterwards."

Namine was taken back at the sudden change of subjects, but then smiled. "Alright."

Half an hour passed with Roxas showing Namine around. The two even bought some things during the small tour.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"So this is your room?" Namine asked as she and Roxas entered his small room. She smiled at the memory. "I remember this place in my dream. I saw you wake up and I was standing beside you. When you looked my way, I disappeared." She laughed. "I pretty much know what you're thinking. That I'm wierd, huh?"

Roxas shook his head. "No. It's just that I had the same dream as you. What are the odds?"

Namine sat down on his small bed and looked down at the floor shyly. "So, how do you explain all of the recent similarities in our memories and dreams? They all connect." All of a sudden, there was loud bang that came out from outside. Namine let out a small "Eek!" and planced her hands on her ears, trembling helpessly.

Roxas' eyes widened. He had never seen someone so scared in their life. "Are you okay?" he asked, approaching her cautiously, "Hey..." He placed a hand on her shoulder and became worried at how bad she was shaking. "Namine?"

Namine opened her eyes and looked into his sadly. "W-what was that?" she asked him, "That loud noise?"

Roxas looked outside and found two very angry drivers yelling at each other. He found that they had crashed their cars and sighed. "Just a car crash." He closed his windows and asked, "Are you okay? You looked really bad when the crash came."

Namine loosened herself and sighed in relief. "I'm just scared of loud noises, that's all." She tried her best to regain her composure and put on her best smile. "What were we talking about again?"

Roxas looked at her. Though she's smiling, I can still feel her fear. He smiled back. "We were talking about our similarities and stuff," he replied. "Anyways, does Sora really look like me?"

"Nearly anyone can confuse you two with the other." Namine glanced out of the window and enjoyed the orange color of the skies. "This place is called Twilight Town because of the atmosphere, right? The sun always appears to be setting and the color of the skies appear like the color of dusk. Twilight." She giggled. "It's a beautiful town. And the people here are nice, too."

Roxas laughed a bit. "I wouldn't say that Seifer's nice." She's so cute when she smiles. Hey-What? No! Stop thinking like that Roxas! She's Namine! Just a friend! A friend! A friend who's not your girlfriend or would even be interested in you! She's just a friend who's a girl that's in your room talking to- He awoke from his trance when he found Namine waving her hand at his face. He stared at her blankly.

"Roxas?" Namine called softly, "Earth to Roxas! Are you awake? I asked you who Seifer is."

Roxas remembered their conversation and stuttered, "Oh...right..um, Seifer. He's this blonde guy who hangs out at the Sandlot most of the time. He picks on me a lot. And Hayner, too."

"He sounds like he's the boss of things around here," Namine chimed, her bright blue eyes twinkling energetically. She spotted a sketchpad on the desk and asked, "Do you draw?"

Roxas saw what she was looking at and said, "No. I just bought that for some reason I don't know. Do you want it?"

"Can I really have it?" Namine asked, getting excited.

Roxas nodded. "Yeah. I'll even throw in the free pencils it came with. I'm not a very creative person." He laughed at his own comment. "Huh?" he grunted when he felt a bit of weight land on him. He found that it was Namine hugging him and blushed furiously. Nevertheless, he returned her embrace. She's hugging me?

"Thank you so much, Roxas!" she squealed as she slightly pulled way from him, "I just love to draw! It's one of my favorite hobbies ever!" She gave him a quick, friendly kiss on the corner of his mouth and blushed a bit. "I'm sorry. I just get so affectionate when people give me presents." She giggled. She just loved to giggle.

Roxas was stunned, but quickly replied, "N-no, it's okay...really. No need to apologize." His face was as red as a ripe tomato now. I can't believe it! She kissed me! Not on the lips, but it was still a kiss! He managed to smile a bit and give her the pencils without shaking. "Have fun."

"Oh, I will!" Namine remarked enthustiastically, "Thanks, again, Roxas. You have no idea how much this means to me!" She took the sketchpad and brought it up to her chest. "Maybe I'll even let you see one of my drawings." She looked at the clock. "Uh-oh. I'm sorry, Roxas. But I have to go. I still haven't finished unpacking." She stood up and looked at him expectantly.

"I understand," Roxas nodded, "I'll see you around then. Where do you live by the way?"

"Oh, you really don't need to know that right now," Namine replied hastily, "I-I've gotta go. See ya." She bit her lip and ran out of the door with the sketchpad and pencils in her strongest hold.

Roxas closed the door and fell on his bed. He took a breath in and mentally shouted at the top of his lungs, "She kissed me! Yeah! NAMINE kissed me!" He exhaled and looked up at the ceiling. "But I wonder why she answered me so quickly?" he asked himself. He shrugged and got off of his bed to head for the Back Alley.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Roxas!" Hayner scolded his friend, "What took you so long? We were all angry!"

Roxas didn't even get a chance to pass the curtain and he was already yelled at. He looked at Olette. "You were?"

"Of couse not!" Olette laughed, but then shot a death glare at Hayner. "What Hayner meant was that we were all WORRIED about you. Isn't that right...HAYNER?" She could tell that he was going to deny her statement and secretly pinched his back. "Right?"

Hayner held back a painful squeak and nodded. "Y-yeah," he hissed, "That's what I meant." He felt Olette's fingers leave him and sighed. Man that hurt!

"Oh," Roxas hummed.

"Where were you, anyway?" Pence asked, handing Roxas a bar of Sea-salt Ice Cream which he gladly took.

"I was showing Namine around," Roxas simply answered, hiding a small blush. "She just moved here so it's only polite, right?"

"You?" Hayner teased, "Polite? Ha! You must be in love with that girl! You're hardly even polite to us!"

"Look who's talking," Roxas pointed out. He smirked.

"Knock it off you two!" Olette chastised the teens, "Namine's just a new girl who moved in. Lets not make fun of her OR Roxas so early. And yes, Roxas IS polite." She glared at Hayner again. "So don't go accusing people of not being polite when they are."

"I'm staying out of this," Pence groaned.

"Who the heck are you?" Seifer's voice asked and was heard from the Sandlot, "I've never seen you around here before!"

"That's a stupid white dress, y'know!" Rai spat.

Roxas' eyes widened and his heartbeat quickened. Namine! He dropped his ice cream and quickly ran off to the Sandlot. "Stop it, Seifer!" he shouted as he ran.

"What was that all about?" Pence asked his two friends. They shrugged. "Lets go check it out. Just to make sure Roxas is safe." The trio both ran after their friend.
