Namine tried to tighten her grip on Roxas' hand, her legs swinging beneath her. She could feel his slackened hold on her palm through their hands been wet. Looking down Namine felt the fear flood through her at the realisation she might fall, and the consequences weren't one's to think about happily. Roxas quietly begged for someone such as Axel to come along and help, knowing he couldn't keep his grip for much longer. If Namine fell because of him...How was Roxas going to cope with that?
"Namine...I..." He meant to say the words so they'd sound slightly comforting, but instead they sounded were more like his final words to her.
He watched a tear trickle from the corner of her azure eye as she realised the awful fate about to fall upon her. Roxas bit down hard on his lip and tried one last time to pull her up, but his fingers only slipped and their grip lessened even more.
"I'm sorry," called Roxas trying to shake away the tears
Guilt was about to become his companion, as Namine fell from his grip and plummeted into the heavy mist.
Roxas lay there for a minute, his arm dangling over the edge of the cliff, tears staining his cheeks with dirty marks. He'd let Namine down, the only one who seemed to care about him...
"Roxas..."
...The sound of bird's singing was heavy to Namine's ears. Her eyes struggled open, everything falling into a blur. Where was she? Namine wiggled her fingers in front of her face. She was real enough...Hadn't she fallen off that cliff though? She should be dead now...Namine sat up, her blonde bed head hair tumbled round her shoulders. The room she was in was familiar...A place she never thought she'd see again.
"I'm, home," she whispered to herself, a smile pinching her lips.
But what was that all about? The whole thing with 'Roxas'...and 'Axel'. Surely it couldn't have been just a dream, it felt way too real to be only a simple imaginative dream. Namine swung her legs out of bed and pushed the quilt off her lap. Standing up she glanced back over her shoulder and out of the window. The tops of the buildings in Twilight Town grazed the orange, dusk coloured sky outside. A bang on the door broke Namine from her thoughts.
"Namine, are you awake?"
Now this had to be real if her mother was here. Namine grinned with delight, she never thought she'd see home again. Strange how that wierd dream gave her so much doubt.
"Yeah, I'm up mom," she replied happily
"Well don't forget you have school soon, don't need to be late on your first day back," came the voice from the other side of the door
Namine sat back onto her bed, a beaming smile lighting up her features. Just a stupid dream...
"Ok, I'll be ready soon..."
Namine stepped up to the gates of Twilight Academy. It felt like she hadn't seen this place for ages or any of the people rushing past her and into the grounds.
"Hey Nam!"
Namine wipped round, the voice bringing another huge grin to her face.
"Olette!"
The girl in the bright orange top threw her arms round Namine's neck, hugging her extremly tight. Again, to Namine it felt like they had been apart for ages. Her other friends Hayner and Pence walked up to them, Namine felt suddenly reunited with something she had left behind. As if she had been away from her friends and was now back with them. Not that that was possible.
"Hey Olette..." started Namine as the four of them made their way into the school "I had this really wierd dream last night."
Olette looked at her with a smile.
"I was...part of this wierd group. I had to go on this mission with this boy and his friend..."
Namine tried to think of the two boy's names, and only found she couldn't recall them.
"Anyway, I fell off this cliff, and...it felt so real..."
Hayner stuck his head over Namine's shoulder.
"You mean you woke up this morning feeling as if you'd fallen off a cliff?" he said with a sarcastic grin
Olette hit away his face.
"It was only a dream though Nam. You're here and alive aren't you."
Namine nodded vaguely. She felt strangely dissapointed she couldn't remeber the two guy's names. But it was only a dream, not like it was real. Not like she needed to remember them.
"Come on," spoke Olette lacing her arm through Namine's "They're just from a dream, forget about it."
"Yeah," agreed the blonde haired girl "So like, what you been up to these holidays Olette?"
The first day back at school dragged along. She'd only been back one day and Namine already wished it was the holidays again. Walking home with Olette who was chatting about something to do with school work, Namine found herself blatantly staring round at everything like it was new to her. A boy stood leant against the wall talking to some people, Namine found herself staring right at him, even stopping her and Olette in their tracks.
"Namine what is it?" questioned Olette
The boy arched a red eyebrow upwards upon spotting Namine looking at him. His brilliant green eyes flashed and he mouthed 'what' at her. For some reason Namine recognised him. His bright red, spiky hair, his tall, skinny body...Namine was still staring, hardly noticing him walking over to her.
"Yeah, I don't really appreciate chicks staring at me unless they're about to come ask me on a date..."
The boy quite literally towered over Namine and Olette, a slender hand rested on his hip.
"Oh," Namine snapped out of her mini trance "Sorry...I, thought I recognised you."
The guy looked even more bewildered "Well I certainly don't know you-"
One of the people he had been talking to called to him.
"Axel come on we gotta go!"
'Axel', turned his head back "Yeah I'm coming, keep what's left of your hair on."
He turned back to Namine "Just don't stare, ok."
Walking off Olette peered at Namine with a worried look.
"Are you alright? Why did you think you recognised him?"
"He looked like one of the guy's from my dream, that's all," Namine answered
Olette sighed "You're really hooked up on this dream aren't you. Namine it wasn't real, those guy's aren't real. Seriously just forget it or you're gunna get yourself into trouble with staring."
Namine forced a giggle "Sorry. Ok, I won't think about it again, or mention it."
