I miss him, it hurts to be without him, Terra feels the same. all of us refuse to speak his name. I'm scared to even go over to talk to everyone at the after-funeral. Sora, Kairi, and Riku came, as did Roxas, Xion, Namine, and Axel. Even king Mickey.

I feel someone tap my shoulder, i turn around and see king Mickey looking at me in the same attire he wore when we first met.

"We all miss him Aqua, you should come over and socialize, it might help. Might take your mind off of him."

I can't stop the tears from falling from my face at this point, it's been a week and i miss him so much. I know Mickey sees it but i still try to hide it. I'm scared and alone and i've lost the person i held closest.

I remember the first day after we lost him. Terra stayed away, only because he wanted to give me my time to grieve, i spent all day in the library reading book after book, i read five books by the end of the day without food or drink. I just sat there and read.

The second day wasn't much better, i left the library and went to the kitchen for something to eat, after a whole day of no food or drink i expected to be hungry and somewhat thirsty, but i wasn't. I was barely hungry and only had a sandwhich and a glass of water, i ate silently in the dining room. Master Yen Sid refused to teach us anything until a week after his funeral, but Terra couldn't accept that instead he went to our old star gazing spot to train by himself, it was how he coped. After i ate i walked around the castle grounds, i needed something to keep my mind off of him but it was impossible, every room i went into reminded me of him, there was a memory of him everywhere we had so i decided to go back to the library and continue reading for the rest of the day.

The third day Terra came to see me, said he was worried about me, i told him not to worry about me but he still sat beside me in the library, granted he took a nap and slept almost all day but it was nice to have some sort of company. I had read nine books in total by the end of the third day, Terra was still asleep by the time i decided to call it a day, so i took a nap in the library as well.

By the fourth day it was Yen Sids turn to get worried, he didn't show it but he was worried about us. I remember he woke me up and asked if he could talk to me, we left the library and went into the study to talk. He asked me if i was okay, i remember telling him yes and then him saying i was lying. He was right of course but i didn't want to say anything besides the lie. He let me go with a pat on the head. I went into my room and cried for as long as the tears would flow. Eventually i layed down as the sun was about to start to set.

I slept all of the fifth day, Terra nor Yen Sid bothered to wake me up. I was left to my pain and nightmares.

I woke up the sixth day to Terra sitting next to the bed passed out in the chair, he had a notepad and a pencil on the nightstand next to the bed. I grabbed the notepad and looked at what he had drawn, it was me, Terra, and him stargazing on the mountain top, this had obviously hit Terra harder than he bothered to admit. I looked at the paper again, i looked over it again and again and made sure to commit it to memory. I put his paper down and went to go get food, i was hungry and needed something to eat before i starved to death, i opened the door to the cupboards to almost complete nothingness. We hadn't gone to any kind of store for so long that we had almost nothing left to eat, so i scrounged together anything edible and ate a small snack, i then went back into my room by taking the long way there, i didn't want to pass by his room. As i got back to the room i curled up in my blankets and fell back into my nightmares.

Today being the seventh day is the day of the funeral, the service was nice, or what i saw of it, i couldn't bring myself to go up and speak, or even look at his lifeless body.

Mickey tapped my shoulder again, making sure that i was still paying attention i guess." Hey Aqua?"

"Hm? Yeah, i'm listening." I said

"We'll find who ever did this and make sure they can't do it again." He said calmly. "I promise."

"Thanks Mickey"

Mickey turned around and headed back to the funeral. I just sat there and cried some more. I didn't want to be here anymore, i couldn't take it, everyone was trying to avoid actually saying his name. No one wanted to talk about how he died or what or who could have done it, everyone just avoided the question.

And i was left alone with my Pain...
