Chapter Five
The Necklace
By: Gatorgirl1999
"Hey… Roxas?" I said after finishing my bowel of rice.
"Yeah?" He looked up from the manga he was reading and looked me in the eyes.
"I…" I looked down. "I was just wondering if…" I bit my lip.
"Yeah?"
"Uhhh…. Never mind!" I laughed weakly. He gave me a weird look as I walked away. No way could I ask him something like that. I can't ask if he was the one who kissed me…
"What are you doing on the floor?" Axel asked, lifting an eyebrow.
"Nothing." I replied, getting up quickly and wiping the back of my white dress.
"Hey." He grabbed me shoulder and turned me around.
"Hmm?"
He grabbed my wrist and yanked me towards him.
"A-axel?" I stammered.
"Shush."
"What are you…?" I whispered, only to be interrupted by him putting his hand over my mouth.
"I said shut up."
"You don't have to be so-!" I stopped mid-sentence as he brought his face towards mine. Before I could say anything else he brought his mouth down on the hand over my mouth. What the-
He stayed there for about fifth teen seconds and let go. He then looked at Roxas and stuck out his tongue playfully and walked away. Heat rose to my face and I looked away flustered. What the heck was that about? Roxas just looked at me in shock and I ran to my room.
~Kingdom Hearts~
I slid to the floor after entering my room. Why would he do that? I mean, he did put his hand over… but still… I blushed again at the thought. Was it possible? Was Axel the one who kissed me while I was sleeping? My back was to the door when I heard a quiet knock.
"Y-yeah?" I asked.
"Can I come in?"
Roxas.
"Uhh… sure." I gulped. He saw it! What do I say?
"Umm, the door…"
"Oh! Yeah sorry!" I said, moving out of the way. I scratched the back of my head in embarrassment. "Did you need something?" I asked nervously.
"More like…" He said moving past me. "Needing to show you something. Right about…now."
"What is… whoa!" I gasped when I looked in Roxas's direction. He was by the window and a huge burst of fireworks exploded nearby.
"Best view on the ship." He grinned. I walked over to the window and gazed up at the sky.
"It's so pretty…" I whispered.
"Yeah…" He replied, looking at me. "Beautiful." I looked away awkwardly, covering my face with my long blonde hair.
"Naminé-"
"Good night Roxas!" I interrupted, staring at my feet.
"Naminé…" He took my face and I shut my eyes and flinched. "Good night." He whispered in my ear.
He let go of me, but I pulled him back. Why do I feel so weird? I've never felt this way before… I don't want him to leave. I don't want him to go away…
"Don't go." I whispered. He opened his mouth to say something. "Please?"
Hurt flicked threw his eyes for a second and then a face I didn't quite understand showed up.
"Why don't you ask Axel instead?"
"W-what?" I was completely taken back by his question… it hurt.
"Doesn't matter who it is right?" He went on.
What? No! That's not true! I'm… I'm asking you because-
"Roxas-"
"You'll just take any one who throws affection your way." He interrupted coldly. His voice was hard. "Good night." He slammed the door behind him, leaving me lost, confused… and most of all… hurt.
That's not true. THAT'S NOT TRUE!
"ROXAS!" I called his name, running to the door immediately after him. I pulled continuously at knob, but Roxas had locked the door behind him, leaving me trapped in my room. "Roxas! That's not it! That's not it!" I cried out, furiously banging on the door; it stayed locked no matter how much I yanked it. "Open the door you idiot…" I sobbed, sliding to the floor. "Open the door…"
~Kingdom Hearts~
I woke up to the tears still sticking to my face. I slowly stretched my hand to try and open the door, but it wouldn't open. It was still locked. My throat hurt from all the screaming I did last night. I stood up and wobbled to my bed, wiping away what tears were left. I brought my hand to the back of my neck and gasped.
My necklace! No no no! Where is it!
I ripped all the sheets off my bed and the pillows, frantically searching for my precious necklace. I pulled up the mattress and looked under the bed. Nothing.
Where is it? I start to panic and I flipped everything in the room upside down. I looked in the bathroom that was connected to my room; I looked in the small nightstand and I looked to see if it was caught in my hair. It wasn't.
The window! I walked over to the one and only small window in my room. I saw a shining light come from just below it on the other side. I see it! The necklace was dangling on a bent piece of medal and I climbed up through the window, stretching my arm as far as possible to try and reach it.
I was so close! But my short arms weren't enough to reach it. I went farther through the window to try and reach it but still it was out of reach. I know! I'll get Axel to unlock the door and he can get it! I quickly calmed down at the thought of the idea. I would get it back. But my hopes were crushed as I tried to make my way back out the tiny window.
"Ack!" I… I'm stuck! "Axel!" I called his name.
"What's wrong?" Axel sighed from the next room over. Yes! He was nearby! But… how do I explain this!
"My butt's stuck, er… in the window…" I muttered in embarrassment.
"What?"
"My butt's stuck!" I blushed.
"What?"
"I said my ASS IS FUCKIN STUCK IN THE WINDOW!" I cried out in frustration. I tried to wiggle out my there was no space.
"A widow. Whoa… I mean their wife just died and you-"
"I said window not widower you dumbass!" I yelled. I had to get the necklace. Quick! It was slipping… I heard footsteps and Axel entered the room. I kicked my feet, trying to escape.
"Stay still stupid." He grunted, walking over to me; after looking at me for a few seconds he let out a laugh. "Wow. How the hell did this happen?" I balled up my fists.
"S-shut up! Just help me get out!" I steamed, kicking my legs back and forth.
"OW! Watch where you kick!"
"I can't see! My head's on the other side remember!" I hissed.
Axel just muttered. "Maybe I should just leave you here. Might teach you a lesson."
"Don't!" I cried.
"Then shut up and let me help you."
I went quiet. There was nothing for a moment and then I felt two hands on my ass.
"What the hell are you doing?" I screamed, kicking him in the face.
"Trying to get you out!"
"Don't touch my butt!" I huffed.
"Do you want to get out or not?" He yelled in replied. I bit my lip in frustration.
"Hurry up!" I said, looking away. I don't know why I looked away; it wasn't like he could see my face…
"I'll try the feet." He yanked hard at my feet and I screamed in pain.
"OW!"
"Stay still!" He demanded.
"I am staying still! You're the one yanking at my feet!" I groaned.
"Do you want to get out or not?"
"Well you're hurting me!" I suddenly got an idea. "Axel! Push me!"
"W-whaaa?" He replied in confusion.
"Do it! Quick!" I commanded. He put his hands on me and pushed me out the window. "Not so fast! I'll fall! Ah-!" Axel yanked at my feet and stopped me from failing. "Holy shit Axel! I said be careful!"
"Well if you weren't so fat it'd be way easier!" He hissed.
I froze.
"I'm not fat!" I whimpered.
"What are you trying to do anyway?"
"Just keep pushing and don't go!" I told him. He let me down slowly and I was close enough to reach the necklace. "I got it! Just-" I instantly grabbed the necklace, but as I did, Axel's hands slipped from me and I crashed into something.
"What the-" A voice shouted as I feel on top of them.
I looked up in shock. "R-roxas?" I got up immediately and looked away embarrassed.
"What. Are. You. Doing?"
"I… I just dropped my necklace but I have it now so sorry!" I yelled quickly, trying to run away, but he yanked on to my arm forcing me to come back. He glanced at the window and locked eyes with Axel.
"What were you doing?" He asked me again.
"My necklace-" I started.
"I mean with Axel." He cut me off and then turned to me.
"Stufffff…." Axel grinned from behind the window. We both turned our heads towards him.
Roxas let go of my hand which surprised me because I forgot he was holding it.
"What?" Roxas's voice was calm and cool, completely unlike how it was last night.
"It's none of your business. Axel was just helping me anyway." I said in his place. Axel didn't say anything for a moment. Then he shrugged.
"What she said. Just helpin' her out."
Roxas was quiet.
"Umm… anyways Axel, can you help me put my necklace back on?" I asked, breaking the awkward silence.
"Sure."
I started to walk over to him but Roxas grabbed my arm once more.
"I'll do it." He told us both, bringing me to him and turning me around. "Hold up your hair."
I used one arm to hold up my hair and I glanced to see Axel grinning at me. I blushed and looked away.
"Necklace." I passed back the necklace and he unclipped it and wrapped it around my neck. "Move your arm but keep your hair up." I did as he said and he re-clipped the necklace.
"Niceeeee…" Axel smiled, clicking his tongue. Roxas didn't respond, he just looked at me and said, "Breakfast time."
A/N: As you can see, this chapter is a little longer than what I usually have which is quite strange because I hadn't planned it too at all it just kind happened O.o XD You can start to see Roxas getting a little jealous tee hee. I don't know when I will be updating this again BUT I will be writing and typing chapter 26 first so that should be up sooner or later. Well thanks for read haha and I hope that you enjoyed! Review :3 ?
