Me: I'm back!
Xybaile: Dang it...
Me: -_-+ Say the disclaimer.
Xybaile: My stupid Somebody doesn't own Kingdom Hearts. Happy?
Me: Please excuse me while I go kill her. GET BACK HERE XYBAILE!
Roxas: *eats popcorn while watching* A story and a show! Nice!
Me: One more thing! I finally got to double digits! *Ties Xybaile to a chair*
Chapter 10: Day Off
"Xybaile! Wake up already!"
"No..." I groaned.
"Don't make me get Tikal."
"I'm up!" I jumped up on my bed. I looked down at Irmax smirking. "What's that look for?" I crossed my arms and glared at her.
"Tikal already left for her mission."
"I'm so going to kill you when- I slept that late?" I ran out of my room with Irmax laughing behind. I flew past Roxas on the way to Saïx for a mission.
"Hey Xy, where are you going?" Roxas called.
"I slept late and need to get my mission!"
"I thought Irmax told you we had the day off!" I looked at Roxas in confusion.
"IRMAX!" I yelled and ran back to my room. A certain light brown haired nobody with brown eyes was laughing her lying little butt off. "You have three seconds to live..."
She looked up to me and managed to say, "You HAHA wouldn't be able HAHAHA to kill me."
"That's no- that's so true..." I mumbled. "By the way, where is Tikal? I haven't seen that glasses wearing blonde since yesterday."
"I don't know, probably in her room." Irmax shrugged and lied down on my bed.
"Don't make yourself too comfortable." I dragged her off of my bed. "You're worse than Axel."
Just then, a certain red head pyro walked by. "Hey! I heard that!" He ran over and got me in a head lock.
I laughed and said, "I take it back! You're the laziest pyro!"
"Got it memorized?" Axel released me. "Now, I'm off to take a nap."
"Ditto." Irmax said.
I looked at Axel and pointed to Irmax. "I think that's yours. And she's just like you."
Irmax glared at me. "I'll take my cue." I watched them walk out and quickly pulled out my notebook. I found the page that had the names I worked on. I messily ripped it out of the purple notebook just as I heard a voice behind me saying, "What do you think you're doing?"
I jumped at looked at the certain blond haired boy who held my... er... um... I'll get back to you on that. "Nothing."
I swear he rolled his eyes. "Well, Xion and I are going to go out with Demyx, Zexion, Tikal, and the new girl. Wanna come?"
"Sure." I folded the paper and put it in my pocket. I closed my door and followed Roxas to Twilight Town.
"You gonna let me see that paper?" Roxas whispered to me.
I felt my face heat up and mumbled, "In your dreams."
He laughed and said, "Meet up at the clock tower before sunset." I blushed deeper and looked away. I nodded and walked away.
"Hey Xybaile." A quiet voice sounded behind me. I turned around and saw Xelna.
"Sup Xelna?" I nodded, hoping my new tomato face was back to normal.
"So, you like Roxas?" So much for my tomato face turning back to normal.
"Why do you say that?" I tried and failed miserably to fight back a blush.
"No reason." She laughed.
"Great way to make friends and influence enemies." I playfully nudged her.
We walked around my favorite town for a while with her. We walked past a music store and I gasped. "What is it?" Xelna asked.
"There's-there's-there's..." I couldn't get it out in my excitement.
"Don't make me hit you."
"How come all of my friends are violent?" I pointed in the window. "There's a purple guitar in there!" The guitar I pointed to was painted a dark purple. On the lower left side was a picture of a lily beginning to bloom. It was only 500 munny. I quickly checked in my purple wallet... What? Purple's my favorite color. "Yes! Just enough munny!" I ran in.
"Wait for me!" The door closed in Xelna's face. "Ow!"
"Sorry!" I called back. I ran up to the counter and said to the clerk, a teen aged girl with long dark brown hair with blonde highlights and hazel eyes, "Excuse me?" She couldn't hear me with her giant headphones blasting some music. "Hello?" She blew a giant pink bubble. "PERSON!" She jumped and removed her headphones. She started coughing, or more like choking on her bubble gum. "Are you okay?"
"Bailey? I thought you died!" She said, banging on her chest.
"Who's Bailey?" I asked. "I just want to buy that purple guitar in the window."
She seemed to calm down a whole lot. She walked over to the window and took out the guitar. "5-500 munny." 'kay, so she's not totally okay... I gave her the munny and walked out with my new guitar.
Xelna was still rubbing her nose. "Man, you slam the door hard."
I was still looking at my new guitar. "Sorry."
She shook her head. "I see why you're friends with Demyx."
"That guy knows how to play!" Xelna gave me a weird look. "What?" It took me a second. "Not like that!"
"You said it!" Xelna laughed. I saw a card store and the time. "Hey Xel, it's almost sunset. I'll meet you at the clock tower." I checked my wallet and I had just enough munny for a card. One card for one someone. I walked in and picked out a special card meant for some Valentine's Day thing. I'll ask Axel about it later. The cashier looked at me in shock and I said, "Before you say anything, I already heard it. I'm not Bailey." He semi-calmed down, though looked a little freaked that I knew what I was going to say. I bought the card and wrote a message in it.
I walked happily to the clock tower. I looked up and saw only two people up there. I ran up to see who. Yeah, I would've been able to see from down there, but that's no fun. Besides, if it's Roxas, I want to give him the card. I peaked around the corner and saw it. I felt where my heart was crack again. I saw them... Kissing. It looked like it was a way to connect them forever. I held back the water threatening to overflow out of my eyes and made a Dark Corridor back to the Castle. I walked to one of the few places I felt calmer: Marluxia's garden. I hid under a tree next to a patch of purple flowers that haven't bloomed.
Some time later, I heard, "Xybaile? Are you here?"
My head shot up. I quickly snuck over to the wall by the pond and hid there, my card still clutched in my hand and my knees hugged to my chest. 'Go away Roxas... Please leave me alone...' I silently begged.
"Xybaile? Where'd you go?" I heard desperation in his voice. I took a quick peak, to see those same purple flowers in full bloom. I looked right next to me and saw another one of those flowers in full bloom.
"Come on, she might just need some time to herself." I heard a voice that sounded like Demyx.
"I'll right Demyx." I heard Roxas sigh. I looked down next to me and saw a red hand made heart card with the words "Roxas + Xion" on it. I left it alone and began to let my tears flow again.
"Thought you'd be here." Demyx's voice surprised me. I looked up to him and he handed me my guitar. "I think you forgot this."
"Thanks Demyx." I sniffed.
He looked at me with sympathy. "Take care little musician." He patted my back.
"Thanks Demyx, for everything." I said. He nodded and got up. I stood up and gave him a hug.
"No problem Xy."
I picked up my guitar, I'm calling it my nickname, Violet Eclipse and walked into my room. As I sat down on my bed, I picked up my journal and began to write. I never let my card out of my hand.
Roxas heard the music coming out of Xybaile's room cut off. 'Wait, when did she get back?' He got a weird feeling in his chest. "Go and check on her." A voice in the back of his head told him.
"Why?" He whispered.
"Just go." It replied. He got up and walked quietly over to Xybaile's room. He found her on her bed with the purple guitar Demyx had been carrying. She had a red card in her hand that said "For Roxas" with a heart on it. He slowly took it out of her hand and opened it.
Dear Roxas,
I know that you're with Xion, but I don't want to lose you. You are more important to me than any one else that I know. Seeing you with her, my second best friend compared to you, it breaks what would be my heart. You were the first one in the Organization that was nice to me. Before the Organization, it was just me, Tikal, and Irmax; three unnamed Nobodies in a world of mourning Some bodies. I felt lonely inside, if even possible. I hope you feel the same. Well, then again, if you... love... Xion you should feel the same, that us Nobodies can feel emotions like love and loneliness.
I guess what I'm trying to say is, I love you, but I know I'll never have you. I just wanted you to know that. I don't think I'll ever feel any different. So, be happy with Xion. If she ever does anything, you know who to call on. I'll have your back, as long as I love you.
Love,
Xybaile
Roxas looked at the card for a while. Then, he looked at the girl he always thought of as a friend who wrote it. He smiled at her peacefully in her sleep. He leaned down and kissed her on the cheek and said, "Sleep well Xy." He walked out with a clearer mind then he's had since he began to date Xion.
Me: I was in one of my romantic/heartbreak moods when I wrote this. So now it's longer than usual. Oh, and now Xelna's in more! Time to join the fun XxninjafangirlxX on youtube.
Xybaile: I feel better now. I baked cookies!
Me: You're in a better mood... Oh my god, *Looks at cookie Xybaile gave me* WHAT DID YOU DO TO THIS COOKIE?
Xybaile: Nothing.
Me: Then I'm going to give this to Roxas.
Xybaile: 0.0 You wouldn't.
Me: Actually I can't... He's one of my favorite characters. *Idea lightbulb* Let's go give it to Saïx!
Me and Xybaile: OH, SAÏX!
Saïx: Oh no...
10 minutes later...
Me: And that is how Saïx really died. *High fives Xybaile* :D
