Warning: Ummm, there is a small amount of blood and stuff lol.


"Save your strength."

"Kairi, I don't know if I am going to live through this wound… So if I don't-" He pulled something out of his pocket and smiled.

A hint of silver caught Kairi's eye and she gasped.

"I was going to propose to you, here on the island. We didn't have to get married now, but in a few years I wanted too." He smiled and pushed the ring into her hand. "So take it anyway."

Kairi leaned down to his lips and they kissed, then Roxas closed his eyes and slumped downward.

"Roxas." Kairi clenched her teeth. "Roxas," She tightened her fist with the ring within it and felt more hot tears fall on her face. "ROXAS!"

--Can't Catch Tomorrow…--

The storm had finally hit the island, and rain was pouring onto the beach. Kairi had her face buried into Roxas's motionless chest and was sobbing deeply.

"I can't lose you too…" She whispered into his ear. "I-I can't live without you…"

Kairi looked down at the ring Roxas had given her and read the inscription within it. 'Hold On A Little Tighter, Have No Regrets, Love Forever, Never Want Time To End.' She rubbed her fingers over the inscription and stared up into the rainy sky.

"I've lost the two people in the world I most cared about. What more is there for me to live-" She felt someone clasp her shoulder and she turned around quickly.

Her eyes widened and she gasped. "Sora!"

"Kairi, I've missed you so much," He wrapped his arms around her.

Kairi squeezed her arms around Sora tightly. 'His hair, his body, his face… He's really here!'

"Kairi I'm sorry about Roxas's injury…"

"He's dead Sora, just like you." She started to cry again.

Sora wiped the tears from her face and smiled. "You might want to take a look again."

She let go of him and turned around. Roxas was breathing. She lifted his head up and set it on her lap the she caressed his cheek lightly.

"You're alive!"

"Kairi, I-I have to tell you-" He closed his eyes again and his head fell back.

She checked for a pulse and found it, then let out a sigh of relief.

"He's only passed out." She turned back around to tell the news to Sora, but he was gone. "Was he ever really there?"

--Three Days Later--

Roxas was hospitalized because of the deep wound in his back. Kairi had been visiting him everyday and pampering him to make sure he got back up to full health. The doctors had told them that Roxas would be let out in a few weeks because the wound in his back had to be healed before they could let him go.

"Roxas, Today is the first day of summer vacation. You know what? I'm still spending it with you." She smiled and held his hand lightly.

"Kairi go have fun with Selphie and the others. I mean just because I'm here doesn't mean you have to be." Roxas said rubbing her hand with his thumb.

"I know." She smiled again.

"Kairi, Sora brought me back. Somehow…" He closed his eyes remembering the scene that filled his mind the day he was wounded.

'So take it anyway.'

Kairi leaned down to his lips and they kissed, then Roxas closed his eyes and slumped downward.

Everything went dark and Roxas couldn't feel anything anymore. The pain has disappeared and clearly so had everything else.

'Is anyone there?' He asked out into the darkness.

'Well now, this isn't the first time you've been here Roxie.' He turned and came face to face with Sora.

'Where am I Sora? Where's the island? Where's Kairi?'

Sora pointed above him and let out a soft chuckle. 'You're dead Roxas.'

'What? That wound killed me?' He looked down at his clothes and saw no blood. 'I want to go back! I don't care about the pain! I can't leave Kairi!'

Sora patted his arm and chuckled again. 'So be it.'

A golden light emitted from Sora's hand and surrounded Roxas's body. He felt a sharp searing pain in his back and felt blood trickle down it. Looking down at his clothes he saw that once more they were bloodstained.

'Keep her safe. That's all I ask of you.' Sora said before disappearing.

'Will do.'

Then Roxas's eyes shot open and he saw Kairi hugging Sora. A warm tear fell down his cheek as he watched Kairi pull away and run over to him.

'You're alive!'

Roxas sighed as he opened his eyes once more and stared deeply into Kairi's violet ones. She put her arms around him and hugged him lightly.

"We'll be out of here soon Roxas."

"I don't care when I get out of here. As long as I'm with you." Roxas kissed her cheek and she waved good bye for the night.

--The Next Morning--

When Kairi arrived at the hospital the next morning she was shocked to see Roxas walking towards her. He was dressed in the clothes he had been attacked in, but seemed to be fine.

"Hey Kairi! I've been let out early. My wound healed quick enough to where I can leave." Kairi's mouth dropped but she said nothing. "Let's go swim at the beach."

"Oh, Okay? Are you sure that's a good idea?" Roxas nodded. "Let me run home and-"

Roxas shook his head. "We're going in our clothes."

"What? Not my skirt and-" She smiled and shook her head. "Fine."

As they walked towards the beach, they were joined by two other teens.

"Riku! Selphie!" Kairi squealed.

"Hey Kairi. Haven't seen you much." Riku muttered, glaring over at Roxas.

"Well, silly, you did move. But I'm glad you came to visit!" Kairi pulled Selphie into a hug. "Would you two like to come swimming with us?"

Selphie looked up at Riku and he shrugged. "Alright. We'll come."

When the four of them reached the beach, they all got prepared to swim. Roxas and Riku removed their shirts and shorts and jumped right in, boxers and all. Kairi and Selphie began exchanging slight whispers.

"Should we?"

"Of course, they won't expect it!"

The girls turned around and both of them removed their shirts revealing bathing suit tops. Then they peeled their skirts down and showed the bottom half of their bikini's. Kairi's was a light blue with pink splotches while Selphie's was a bright orange with green stripes on it.

"We ended up putting our swimsuits on earlier." Kairi whispered.

"Yeah we were coming swimming anyway." Selphie leapt into the water and splashed Riku in the face.

Riku was paying more attention to Kairi as she stepped into the water, and watched her dip under and come back up. Roxas looked over at him and nudged him in the ribs. Riku looked away from her and blushed. He hadn't realized what he was doing.

"I love the feel of the water," Kairi said before she dunked under once more.

Riku watched her, then quickly dunked under himself. When under he came face to face with Kairi and she smiled at him. He turned his head and soon pressed his lips against hers. She stared at him for a moment then pushed him away. Kairi quickly kicked up to the surface and was followed by Riku.

"What the hell was that?" She asked angrily.

"Spur of the moment?" He muttered.

"You kissed me!"

Selphie stared over at Riku in anger then threw something golden at him.

"Take your damn bracelet back you cheating bastard!" Then she stormed out of the water in anger.

"Selphie wait-" Riku followed her, leaving Roxas and Kairi to swim themselves.

"That was interesting?" Roxas winked.

Then the two of them dunked under the water into the murky mist below. Sharing kisses and the feel of each other's skin as they brushed apart.
