Chapter two: Namine's POV
It had gone a month since I had started here at destiny high. I was doing well on my subjects but irony had leaded me to hate every single one of them.
With my fear of the opposite sex growing, I have grown scared of the social world that is which my school.
Who am I kidding? Sounding like Shakespeare.
"Hey, Namine right?" I turned to find a familiar girl in front of me, her hair was a reddish brown, and dead straight and just brushed past her shoulders.
"Yeah..." I answered with a smile.
"Hey, I'm Kairi. I always see you on your own and I was wondering if you would like to hang out with us?"
That was the beginning of my first friendship in Destiny High School.
Weeks past after that. Having a friend to help the days go by seemed to make school life more bearable. I felt like I could talk to someone for the first time in two months. It almost made me feel... Happy.
By the end of the first term in Destiny High, I had already become best friends with Kairi. She introduced me to her group (two other girls named Selphie and Rikku) well, the only girls in the group. The rest are guys but kairi sensed my fear of males and decided to not rush me into things.
A week into the next term and Kairi was back to her usual self.
"SLEEP OVER MY PLACE TONIGHT! GIRLIES YOU HAVE TO COME!" Kairi wrapped her arms around me and Rikku, who were on our way to gym class. Rikku's eyes lit up.
"Totally going. You're not leaving me out again!" she smiled before Selphie piped up in a high pitched squeal.
"YEAAAAAAAAH" Where as I had to think about it.
"Awww come on Nami-Chan tonight's going to be awesome!"
After hours of persuading, I was dragged to Kairi's sleep over.
And before I could say anything. The subject had already turned to the worst.
"Who would you Snog? Marry? And Kill?" Kairi threw the question to me.
"Uhh.... I would..." I was in trouble but there was only one way out of it.
"I would kill Roxas!" Selphie, Rikku and Kairi gasped in horror.
"How come? He's cute!" Selphie spoke before being interrupted by Rikku.
"He has the whole badass image. That's soo.... HOT... no SEXY!" Kairi tutted, waving a finger at her.
"Sure, maybe he's sexy, sure maybe he's cute, BUT your right he has GOT the badass image, but his vibe is totally opposite to Naminé. He doesn't do anything without a good reason, he's cunning and deceitful and extremely vein. He thinks life is boring and also, he scores the highest on papers EVERY EXAM, where as Nami-Chan is shy, timid and fears guys so she has a total right to want to kill him. Plus it's just a game!" The girls chuckled, except me.
"Who would you marry?" Rikku asked curiously.
"Uhh... I think I'd rather marry my father, rather than any guy in the school!" I said while, playing with her straw like hair.
"What about Snog?" Selphie asked.
"I rather Snog a girl. Not that I'm a lesbian but hey!" The three girls stared wide eyed in silence at me
"Namine?" Kairi spoke softly, breaking the silence. Once she had my attention, she asked.
"Why do you fear guys so much?" That was a question I had been hoping to avoid. But I really had to tell someone. I couldn't tell my father or my mother.
"Back in Twilight Town, I was... attacked. Attacked by two men. One of which I thought was my friend" They gasped.
"What happened to you?" Selphie asked.
"It's obvious in away. They beat me up on the way home after I sold some paintings I had done. I was walking in the woods by my house and they ... violated me"
"They... Raped you?" Kairi put her hand over her mouth in shock.
"Yeah. Luckily enough, I'm not pregnant. But I've been feeling so ... dirty ever since" Rikku and Selphie where hugging each other.
"Oh... Nami-Chan, I'm so sorry" Kairi pulled me into an embrace. For a second she hugged me I felt almost free from the weight lifted from my shoulders. I could walk tall again.
"Soo... Nami? Is there any particular reason you don't like Roxas?" Kairi let go of me so I could look at Rikku.
"He looks exactly like the guy who betrayed me. Who had his way with me first? Who killed my trust" I sighed.
His gravity defying blonde hair, spiked to one side. His piercing cobalt blue eyes. His curious expression.
...I'm Sorry Namine...
