Disclaimer: Um...own nothing

Namine's POV

I sat meditatively on my bed, thinking of what to draw. Beside me, Kairi read a book I got her for Christmas. Finally, I drew Kairi, book included. When I was done, I swept my long hair up into a ponytail, and hair-whapped Kairi.

"Huh? What the…NAMINE! I was just at the part where the knight saves the princess."

I rolled my blue eyes.

"C'mon Kai-Kai, you've read that story millions of times."

Kairi shook her head in mock disbelief.

"As you must know Nami, the classics are old, but they are classic, so you can never get sick of them."

"I don't suppose you could give me the regular English version, Miss Literature?"

"It's a classic. You don't get sick of them."

"Good girl. You actually listened to me!" She playfully swatted me, and then noticed something shiny that had fallen into view at my neck.

"Namine, what's this?" She asked, examining the beautiful golden necklace with an engraved swan on it. I snatched it out of her hand, and hid it under my shirt again.

"Nothing. I…got it when I was born."

"By Riku?" She wiggled her eyebrows at me.

I blushed tomato red.

"Possibly."

"Ooh…"

"Oh, stop it Kairi." I snapped, and gave her my drawing. She appraised it.

"Wow, very detailed Namine. Are you ever going to draw a picture of yourself?"

I shook my head. I couldn't…somehow, the details were messed up.

"That's a shame."

"Mm, it's something about the details that I get messed up." We were silent for a bit, before Kairi broke it with a smug,

"You're leaving in two weeks, are you excited?"

"TWO WEEKS?!" I shrieked, and bolted over to the calendar over on my wall.

It was May, and…14 days to June. Two weeks?! Great, now the rest of my spring was going to be ruined.

"Thanks Kai, you officially ruined the rest of my spring."

She shrugged,

"Better than springing it on you ten minutes before the boat left." She said. I took a trip down the memory lane at that.

FLASHBACK

"Namine! It's time to go!" Kairi called,

"Time to go where?" I asked idly, standing on my balcony, my white skirt blowing behind me. I thought that maybe we had agreed to go on a walk through the city or something like that…it wouldn't have been the first time I had forgotten.

"Namine, you're heading for Destiny Isles in ten minutes, didn't you know?"

"NO ONE TOLD ME THAT!!" I screamed, and tugged on my hair in horror.

"Well then, I suppose it's a good thing that I packed your bag already." She said, pulling a suitcase out of the closet.

"Thanks Kai." I said, smoothing my shirt. I grabbed the suitcase, and waved goodbye. I would not tell my father I had forgotten…no way.

END OF FLASHBACK

"Nah, I would rather leave it right before." I decided. Best not to ruin my spring.

She rolled her eyes,

"Whatever girl, but you might want to get ready.

Approximately 14 Days Later

I tugged my suitcase down the stairs with Kairi's help. When we finally made it to the boat, we almost collapsed.

"Come now Namine, on the boat!"

"Yes Father!" I called, and lugged my bag onto the ship. I waved to Kairi, who waved back, and I leaned against the boat, and drew.

TWO DAYS LATER

They had to pull me off of the carriage that brought us to Riku's place. I saw Sora, and also saw that he was armed with a slingshot and tomato. Hmm, sudden deja-vu right there. I dodged it expertly, and it hit Axel on the head. Sora looked mortified.

"Riku, Sora. Very nice to see you." I said, smiling. I wonder if they saw the threat under it.

Riku's POV

WOW. Threat alert!

She looks pretty…

WHOA! WHERE THE HECK DID THAT COME FROM?? Okay Riku, get a grip. You never thought that. NO. You were thinking about the threat. If anybody asks, you were thinking about the threat.

Phew.

Sora's POV

…threat?

Namine's POV

They looked confused, and was there panic in Riku's eyes? Weird…

TWO DAYS LATER

Namine's POV

"Hi Riku," I said sitting next to him, and played with his silver hair, "are you up for a game of cards?" He froze

Riku's POV

Is she playing with my hair…? Wow, it actually felt pretty good…Ahem, lost myself there. All right, I'd play; I was really good at cards anyway.

Sora stayed behind Namine's chair so that if she DID get ahead, he could tip me off.

I looked at my hand. Okay. This was over before it began.

"An ace and three Kings." I said smugly,

Why didn't she look worried?!

"Three Aces and a King." She smiled sweetly

Okay… next round.

ROUND TWO

ME: "Two aces and a queen?"

Namine: "Two aces and a queen."

ROUND THREE

I signaled to Sora to give me info on what she had. He peered over her shoulder and held up four fingers.

A four? I could deal with that.

"Four sevens and a ten." I said, laying my cards down.

"I think I won again." She said happily, laying down four aces.

Sora's POV

I MEANT FOUR ACES!!

Riku's POV

After the game, she shot me a satisfied look, and walked away.

"Every time she's won!" I complained.

"Lighten up Riku," Sora advised.

"There are some girls in the world that you can't win with." I agreed.

TWO MOTHS LATER

Riku's POV

Okay, I've never committed murder, but if I did, it would be to murder Axel. He had had a little genius idea of his to send Namine and I out on a ride through town. This was going to be a torturous ride.

No one spoke as we got into the carriage, and I glared at Axel. I bet if I turned around, Namine would be too.

Namine was being Perfect Little Princess, waving a smiling to people around us. I stuck bunny ears up at the back of her head, and quickly sat whistling innocently when she turned back at me.

"Leave it Feather Hair." She growled.

Feather Hair?? ME?? Oh yeah…she liked my hair.

TWO HOURS LATER

Namine practically ran off of the carriage when we got off.

"Did you have fun?" Mom asked.

"About as much fun as being bitten by a cobra." I said angrily, and I 'accidentally' stepped in Axel's foot. Namine shook her head.

ONE HOUR LATER

Namine's POV

It was time to go. I felt a weird feeling, like relief and sadness at the same time. I'm not going to look too far into the latter. Oh well. Riku and I nodded our goodbyes, and I curtsied to the queen, and Axel. Finally, I was going home.

The kid part is over!SOB! Review!
