Someday

Coz someday, someone's gonna love me

The way, I wanted you to need me

Someday, someone's gonna take your place

One day I'll forget about you

You'll see, I won't even miss you

Someday, someday

"Oh," Namine stared at the cell phone next to the munny Roxas left to pay for their drinks. "He must've left this by accident," she whispered quietly, reaching for the phone. Pressing the send button, her eyes widened slightly at his recent caller.

"Olette!"

The brunette girl lifted her head up to see him running towards her, "Roxas…" she gave him a small smile and ran up to hug him, "You came…"

He wrapped his arms around her softly as he murmured quietly for her to hear, "How…is she?"

She let go of him, rubbing away some of her tears, and began to breathe deeply before answering, "She's still asleep, but the doctors are seeing some improvement." She stared at him, "At least she's not in a deep coma state anymore."

Roxas exhaled as his body began to lean against the hospital wall for support, "That's…a relief," he shook his head with a nervous laugh, "The moment I heard you crying and mentioning her name, I rushed over as fast as I could, I-"

"Roxas." Olette kindly interrupted. She nudged his arm, "Instead of standing out here worrying about her condition, why don't you just step in the room to see her yourself?"

Cerulean colored eyes began to glance over at the doorknob and back at Olette, "But you said-"

"Just because I said she's sleeping, doesn't mean she won't hear you."

He went quiet, as if debating whether or not walking in would be the right thing to do and decided to give in, "Thanks Olette." With the turn of the knob, he stepped into the room where she laid peacefully, sleeping soundly beneath the bed sheets. Breaking the urge to simply stand and watch, he felt his shoes dragging him closer to her side of the bed and take her hand in his. Though she was still asleep, a small squeeze from her hand responded to his surprise, "Xion…"

"Now don't you feel a little bit better after visiting her?" Olette asked once Roxas had opened the door. She stood up from where she was sitting and studied his content face, knowing already the answer to her question. He shut the door behind him with a soft click and started walking side by side with her.

"Yeah, she looks like she's doing better."

Silence came between the two again with the exception of the sounds from their shoes walking on the tile floors in their every step. Olette eyed her friend from her peripheral vision so it didn't seem obvious she was watching and couldn't help but notice something else seemed to occupy his mind, "Were…" she hesitated, "you busy when I called you?"

Roxas shrugged his shoulders as a content smile appeared, "I wouldn't say busy, just more of I had free time to chat with one of our friends."

The brunette stopped walking to think and gasped, "Were you with Namine?" She began to panic, "Why didn't you tell me? I ruined your date with her and who knows where she is now, wait where is she? Did you leave her by herself?! You didn't even walk her home?! How-"

"It's fine, calm down," He patted her shoulder to calm herself, "and I told Namine that I had to leave, so no, I didn't ditch her."

"But…you didn't walk her home did you?" She was giving him a small glare, "It's dangerous for girls to be walking around this time in the evening you know."

"Says the girl who I heard beat Seifer up with her math book after he tried to demonstrate what 1+1 equaled," A punch in the arm came in contact from her fist as he rubbed his arm painfully from the impact, "Hey! Don't deny it, I'm sure Hayner was impressed when he heard that story."

She tried to say something back, but when he mentioned Hayner's name, it made her inner self swoon at the sound of it, as she turned away with light blush marks, "W-What's your point?"

The blond boy chuckled at the sight of her reaction - Roxas: 1 and Olette: 0, he won that mini debate. "I'm not saying that I wouldn't walk a girl home, but if I had to pick that and one of my closest friends suddenly waking up from her coma, I think you'd know what I'd do."

She stuck her tongue out at him, "No, you could've done both either way. First, walk Namine home and THEN come straight over here."

"You know, the fact that Cloud happens to be her older brother, I'm pretty sure that no guy would want to mix any trouble with her."

"Well-" she immediately froze the moment they stepped outside and shivered, "you could've told me that it was snowing!"

"Was it oblivious that we passed by how many windows in this hospital that you never took a quick glance at the weather?" He questioned her in disbelief, "It's winter, what did you expect?"

"Unlike some people, I pay attention to the conversation and the person I'm speaking with," the brunette said in a matter of fact.

"Fine, fine, I'll give," He pretended to sigh tiredly as he unzipped his jacket and placed it over her shoulders, "there, is that better?"

"Roxas, I was kidding. Kind of, but really you don't-"

"I'm doing this since you're my friend," he paused, "and because I know Hayner would come after me if something happened to you." He grinned at her reddish expression as the two continued walking, leaving a trail of footprints in the snow.

Little did they know, once they were far enough from the hospital building, the blond girl stopped walking, seeing the familiar two from a distance. "Roxas…and…Olette?" She asked herself, remembering the recent caller on his cell phone. Though she was only walking back to the mansion, she wondered if the kind of girl who would make him run that fast would be Olette's type - charming, optimistic, unselfish, and pretty. "I wonder…" she shook her head, "they would've told me if they were together…"

Twilight Academy

-10th grade, Winter-

"Olette, let's walk together!"

That line caught the blond girl's attention, as she paced her sketches in slow tracing motions to pretend she was into her work. She gazed over at her friend's calm composure who smiled and followed after the blond boy. "Those two seemed awfully close lately…" she sighed, setting her drawing pencil down to rest.

"Don't worry about it Namine," Pence reassured her - for once, he didn't have that annoying camera with him. Actually, how long had he been sitting there? She didn't even notice him working in a seat right beside her. "They're visiting a good friend of theirs who came to town."

"Oh," her face flushed pink that she had jumped to conclusions. After what happened over break, she guiltily thought that she kept Olette waiting for Roxas because he left in such a hurry after her phone call. "That makes sense."

Pence grinned, "Oh, I see, is Namine feeling jealous?"

She dropped her drawing pencil and stared at him in disbelief, "W-Wha? No of course not! I…I still like Sora…" she spoke softly, her face went pinkish. To be honest, she didn't know if it was because Pence was right or saying that she still liked Sora.

The dark haired boy laughed, "Alright, whatever…" he got up and slipped his newly developed photos into an envelope, "I'm heading off to turn these in for the Photo Club, don't do anything drastic Namine." He gave a small wave before walking into another room.

"Yeah," she sighed the moment he left the classroom. Her eyes gazed over to the pencil drawing, then shut her sketchbook as she laid her head upon the desk to rest for a moment. She needed time to-

Beep! Beep! Beep!

She blinked to stare at her cell phone light up, debating whether or not to answer it. Sitting up tiredly, she was just about to ignore the text message until the name Leon showed up. "Huh? He never talks to me…probably a forward…" she clicked the ok button to read it. Her face once confused immediately went to concern as her phone fell upon the floor.

Sunset Hill Hospital

"Leon!" Namine exclaimed as she slammed the door open, "How's Cloud? Is he okay?!"

"Oh hello Namine!" She was greeted by a grinning Tifa who was placing a washcloth on Cloud's forehead, "Don't worry, your brother just caught a fever and nearly fainted on the streets if Leon and I weren't around. Talk about good timing, huh?"

Red-faced, she inhaled, exhaled in disbelief, "W-W-What? Y-You mean all t-this time-" she stammered, "He just caught a fever?"

"I know," Tifa chuckled, "Ironic isn't it? Cloud of all people, would suddenly fall weak because of a fever. I told Leon to text you that he was here, but that was before we knew what was going on." She glanced over to the brown haired guy beside her, "Good thing it's not serious."

Leon nodded in agreement, "Sorry for scaring you squirt," he placed a hand on the blond girl's head in sympathy.

"Ah…" she was speechless, she wasn't used to having Cloud's friends treat her so kindly, or moreover acknowledge her existence, "it's okay…I…I'll get us something to drink, you guys must be tired!"

"You don't have to Na-" Tifa was about to say, but the blond girl had already fled out the room, "She's fast…"

"I can't believe I got worked up over nothing…" She scolded herself while waiting for the drink cans to pop out of the machine, "Okay, so it wasn't nothing…it was only a fever…only…" she sighed softly as she gathered up four drink cans and began her way back to the room. When it came to the hospital, even the word, got her enough to panic, she hadn't been in the hospital since her parents-

She jumped at the loud commotion that erupted behind her. "What was that?" Her eyes suddenly spotted a dark haired girl with short hair, collapsed on the floor, "Are you alright?!" she quickly ran over to the girl, ready to call for help if intended.

"I'm fine," the girl gave her a small smile, "I just tripped that's all, I'm still getting used to walking around after being in a bed for months."

"Thank goodness, you had me worried." Namine paused, "Uh, don't be offended, but would you like me to help walk you back to your room?"

"I'd appreciate it," she grinned, putting an arm around the blonde's shoulders, "One of my friends was supposed to be here, but he told me he wouldn't be able to visit for a while. So I tried walking around to kill time."

Namine smiled as they started walking, "You should be more careful though, you don't want the nurses to worry over you even more that you can't leave your room."

"You're right!" The dark haired girl gasped, "I haven't thought of that, that's even worse." She pointed to the door on their left, "My room's over there, thank you."

"You didn't walk very far…" She murmured, watching the girl sit back on the bed, "How long have you been here?"

The girl glanced at her with a soft smile, "Well, technically, I've been in town for two weeks now, they transferred me over from Destiny Islands to get better treatment. If you're wondering how long I was in the hospital over there, it was about eight months."

"E-Eight m-months?" Namine stuttered, "That's a long time, how did you ever get through the days?"

"Actually, I was in a coma, so it doesn't really feel like I've been gone for that long."

"Oh, I see." She nodded, not knowing what else to add to the conversation. The silence continued on for a couple more moments before she spoke up, "Well, it was nice to meet you, I should probably head back to my brother's room before they wonder what happened to me," she turned the knob, waving a goodbye.

"Wait," The blond stopped in surprise to what else she had to add, "Are you coming back tomorrow?"

Namine paused, "Tomorrow…"

"I'm Xion," The girl added, "It'd be fun to have another friend at the hospital, I mean it gets lonely quickly, and you seem like a good person to get to know. If you don't want to that's okay, since it's out of the blue…"

"Xion?" Namine repeated, she walked over to the patient and held out her hand, "I'm Namine."

"Namine! Look at what I'm making!" She motioned for her friend to come over to see a pile of seashells. After visiting this girl for the past four days, even when Cloud had recovered and gone back home, the blond girl still kept coming to keep her company.

"Wow, I've never seen…" Namine was about to say, but a tug at the back of her mind made her stop and think if she recalled any of this. Didn't that Kairi girl have something similar? "Are these…thalassa seashells?"

"I'm surprised you know, these can only be found on Destiny Islands so not very many people know about them," She held a shell that had a star attached to it, "I made this one especially for you."

"T-Thanks," the blond held it in her hands, "It looks like a shooting star."

"That's because it was made to look like it," she grinned, "hey is that your sketchbook?" she pointed to the spiral bound sticking out of Namine's schoolbag, "Do you have any cool drawings? Can I see them?"

"Uh, sure," she handed her book over to her as she watched her skim through the pages, "Are you an artist too, Xion?"

"Sure, you could say that, but I haven't been able to keep them all in one notebook like yours," Xion replied as she stopped at one of the drawings, "Is this the view from the Clock Tower? My friend told me this is the best view in Twilight Town besides Sunset Hill."

"Yeah it is."

"Oh, this is a picture of the Sandlot! You're very detailed about your drawings."

"T-Thank you…"

"And," Xion flipped to the last page, "a papou fruit?"

"Ah, that!" Namine's face went red, "I used that picture as a reference to make something for someone as a farewell present."

"Someone you like?" An all knowing smile spread on her face seeing that she was right. "I'm sure things will work out for both of you."

Her face went deeper red, "I-I honestly don't know about that…I hadn't confessed to him-"

"What?!" Xion nearly exclaimed, keeping her voice at room level. She leaned against the pillows of her bed, "Well, I guess I'm the one to talk. That's why I'm using these." She was referring back to her pile of seashells, "My twin sister did one and now they're together. I want to try something like this and see if it works."

"This friend of yours is someone you talk about a lot, does he live here?"

She blinked as if she didn't know and smiled, "Yeah, I've loved him since we were little kids." Her face went pink, "It's so embarrassing to admit that."

"It must be nice to have somebody in your life."

"Hey, hey, don't think like that," she frowned seeing the look on Namine's face, "you have to think positive! The boy you like wouldn't like being with someone who's unhappy, you have to keep a happy face on."

"Ha, you're right," she laughed half-heartedly, still doubting that her feelings would really be returned.

Xion crossed her arms, "Well you could've had a little more enthusiasm, but I guess that'll work for now."

Namine laughed at her enthusiastic character - guess she wasn't the type to give up once she's set her goal on something. She tried to change the topic, "Xion, let's go celebrate once you leave the hospital."

"That would be fun," she nodded in agreement, "and if I help you confess to your guy, will you promise to help me?"

"E-Eh?" Namine backed away from the bed, "You can't be serious."

"I am very." She held a longing content gaze, "Please promise? We'll be helping each other!"

Ah…she didn't deal with puppy faces well. "Okay."

"Promise?"

She sighed, "Promise…"

White Mansion

"Namine, you have no new messages." Her computer repeated in her mind for the ninth time. Her last e-mail from Sora was three months ago, and no matter how many she sent without trying to look desperate, he hadn't responded, or even texted some sort of acknowledgement that he saw it.

"Get a grip, Namine," she whispered, her mind thought of excuses as to why he might've not been able to send any replies. Blitzball, homework - she knew him well that he hated doing them, chores - his mom's scary if things weren't done. Since she was outside, she decided that making footprints in the snow would distract her from going on the computer. Epic fail because her mind was STILL thinking of checking her e-mail.

"What's keeping him this busy? The worst that could happen is if he got a girl…friend…" Somehow the word girlfriend seemed foreign to her, she just didn't like the idea of Sora being with a girl who didn't deserve him. Wait, what was she thinking? She wasn't his mother! This was making it sound like she owned him.

"Watch out!" She felt two strong arms around her waist grab her from behind, as she panicked not knowing who it was.

"H-Hey! Wait!"

She could feel herself standing back on the snow, "Sorry to surprise you, you almost slipped on ice if you kept walking."

"Oh, thanks, I-" her eyes realized who she was speaking to, "R-Roxas?"

"Yes, that would be me."

"What are you doing in front of my house?"

"As your friend, I think I'm entitled to visit every once in a while right?" He grinned, "Besides, I haven't been able to talk to you at school during these past weeks."

"Oh is that it," she smiled softly.

"Well, of course I wanted to see you on my part," he sat down on the snowy surface and began to make a mini-snowman, "Have you been keeping touch with my cousin?"

She sighed as she sat beside him, "I've sent him e-mails, but he hasn't replied to any of them, he's probably busy."

"Doubt it, that guy's been hanging out with his-" he quickly stopped himself from blurting out the truth. "Crap, almost told her…" he mentally slapped himself, "his friends! You know, he's had too much time," he laughed nervously hoping she'd fall for it.

"Really?" A soft whisper came from her. Namine stared at him with disappointment upon her face, almost at the verge of crying, "Does Sora hate me?" she blurted out.

Roxas was shocked at her question, "What? No, of course not! Sora doesn't hate you, what…" he wiped her tears away, he hated seeing her like this, especially if his cousin was the sole reason behind it, "made you think that?"

She buried her face into her hands, "I waited…three months and he never replied to any of them. Not even a one word hello!" Great, she was having an emotional breakdown right in front of him. It would've been more comfortable if Olette was there instead of him.

He started to put an arm around her, but hesitated. "We're talking about her feelings here, it might make it awkward…" But in her state, he would have to break the rules. "Sora's a dork like that," he replied, pulling her into a warm hug, "he's forgetful at times because his brain is full of cotton thoughts. He may not have replied back, but I don't doubt that he's happy whenever he reads your e-mails. It just…" he paused, "takes time…besides aren't you the girl who would know him best?"

She didn't respond.

"Namine?" He peered at the girl's face to see, "She's sleeping at a time like this?" He sighed, "You weren't listening to me at all…"

Truthfully, Namine wasn't completely asleep, but she hadn't been able to rest peacefully like this in a while that she couldn't help but…rest her eyes for a moment. And she "was" listening to his every word. She smiled, she didn't mind being with him like this…stop. What was she doing? This is Roxas not Sora.

Though they were together outside, she didn't bother to think that the computer in her room would finally light up, "Namine, you have 1 new message."

Sunset Hill Hospital

"Aren't you glad that you finally get to leave this room?" Namine smiled cheerfully as she zipped up her friend's bag and slung it over her shoulder, "These are all your belongings right?"

"Hopefully I didn't forget anything," Xion joked, she eyed her surroundings for anything left behind, "looks like we're good."

"Good, we can start heading over to where you said your friend lives."

Xion observed her blond friend's appearance, something was different about her today…"Namine, you seem happy today. Did something happen? Oh, was it with the boy you like?" She began to poke her, "SPILL!"

"Gah! Stop," she was ticklish and hated it when people found out because it would provoke them to keep doing it. "It's nothing! It was just an e-mail saying how he was sorry for not responding sooner, but he told me to let him know if I was planning to visit."

"You visiting him alone?" She grinned, "Sounds suspicious…"

"Xion," she coughed, red-faced, "don't be silly."

"Ah, he came!" Xion pointed to the boy standing in the lobby, "Roxas!" she waved for his attention.

Namine froze, her heart thumping nervously. Did she just say Roxas? As in-

"Xion!" The blond boy greeted her with a happy expression once the girl had pulled him into a hug, "and…Namine?" He didn't know that she would be here too. "You two know each other?"

Xion pointed to the two blonds, "And "you" two know each other?"

"Namine and I are friends," He grinned, putting an arm around Namine's shoulders, surprising her and Xion, "and we go to the same school."

The look on the dark haired girl's face changed, which went unnoticed by Roxas. "I see," she murmured, quickly taking her arm in with the blond boy, "well Roxas can carry that bag for you Namine! Thanks for helping me take it down to the lobby!" she grinned.

"E-Eh?" She was surprised at the change of plans, "You sure you don't need help with-"

Xion took her bag back, "Thanks, but Roxas and I can handle it!"

Hm…Namine didn't like the tone in Xion's voice when she emphasized Roxas and then her.

"I'll call you later to hang out," She added, trying not to sound suspicious in the change of attitude.

"O-Okay…" she stood there stunned as the girl dragged the boy away to the exit. Roxas took one last look at Namine - her face going pink when he gave a friendly wave before disappearing through the doors. She waved in return, uncertain if he saw. That look Xion had on her face earlier made her nervous. Almost like…then it hit her. The boy that Xion liked was Roxas.

Olette's House

"Olette, what should I do?" Namine was panicking about this. Usually she was smart enough to answer these questions herself, but her situation was an exception.

Her brunette friend sat on a comfy sofa beside her with a thoughtful gaze. "Normally I would be squealing about this, but now…I'm not sure what to tell you. It looks like you're falling for Roxas."

Namine's face went red, "I…I…"

Olette grinned, "See? Your stuttering and the fact that you blush at the sound of his name is proof."

She's right as she sighed, "Now that's where I'm confused. I don't know if I like him because he reminds me of Sora. I don't want to fall for him if it's only for that, it would hurt him more than it would hurt me."

"Namine," Olette began, "Whenever you're around Roxas, you feel happy right? Not just because he really looks like Sora."

"Y-Yeah, that's true."

"You like him as a good friend who's helped and cheered you up whenever you needed someone too, correct?"

"Well, yes but what did that have to do with this?"

"Ah," her friend winked, "if you needed a friend to talk to, you would've been e-mailing Sora about these kinds of things."

"Sora hasn't been answering his e-mails in the first place," Namine protested, "He might've been busy to reply back."

Olette sat there with a smile. "What about your new friend Xion?"

A pang went through her chest, "What about her?" Namine asked calmly.

"Were you upset or jealous when she was with Roxas?"

"I…" She leaned against her seat, "don't know, it was uncomfortable seeing them leave together but it was probably because she had this sudden change in personality and then she says she's fine without my help- "

"You're in. Love. With. Roxas." Olette confirmed.

"What?!" She stood up from where she was sitting, "That's not-" she stopped mid sentence in realization that she was wrong, "true…" the word choked out. "No, it can't be true," she repeated, shaking her head in denial.

"Namine, calm down," Now it was Olette's turn to panic as she placed her hands on her friend's shoulders to stop her from an emotional breakdown. "Now breathe with me," she made inhaling and exhaling motions, "there, have we calmed down a little?"

She exhaled slowly, "Yeah, sorry about that."

"Namine," Worry was etched on the brunette's face, "maybe the first thing you should do is go to Sora."

"Go…to…Destiny Islands?" Namine's eyes widened in shock, "B-but-"

"Look at yourself, you're falling apart because of the guilt you carried since the day he left. As your friend…what else can I do? I could come with you if you want."

She shook her head, "No it's alright, I think you're right," she hugged her friend tightly, "Thank you Olette, I'll be back."

"Take your time to sort things out," Olette nodded, "and-" she was about to add one more thing but the blond had already ran out the door, "good luck…" was what she meant as a smile formed on her face, "of course if you have Roxas behind you, you'll do fine."

"The last trip to Destiny Islands is in fifteen minutes," Namine told herself as she glanced at her watch while running, "Hopefully I can make it in time." She was praying she would, she was definitely not the type to run for no reason. "Sora…I'm coming to find you…" determination ran through her mind, "I can finally…" then an image of another boy interrupted her thoughts, "Roxas…"

Flashback

"Let me know if you're planning on visiting him."

"Eh?" She stood up to take the piece of paper from him, "Just wondering, but why?"

He shrugged, "I want to come with you when you visit him that's all, he's my cousin."

End of Flashback

"I should've told him that I was leaving…" She debated with her inner self, "But this time, it's a personal thing, he wouldn't want to come along-" "Ack!" Her shoe tripped her onto the street's grounds as she moaned in slight pain.

"Namine?" She heard "his" voice from above as her gaze averted to the blond boy at the window. Ah, she forgot that he had lived in this neighborhood.

He saw the whole thing from his apartment window, "You okay?" he asked worriedly, preparing to grab first aid in case if she needed it, "Took a hard dive there. Namine?"

She stared at him in deep thought, "he wouldn't want to come along would he? Up until now, the path that I've walked on, has definitely made me happy." Her heart began to beat nervously to admit this, "I fell in love…and as time went by, all those painful thoughts and happy memories became my best treasures. I can say this for sure…"

"Hey, what's wrong?" If she wasn't going to say another word in the next 30 seconds, he was willing to jump down from his third floor building to see if she needed help.

Just before she was about to reply, another figure appeared beside him as her face fell into a disappointed gaze. Xion. "Did something happen?" She asked him, suddenly spotting the girl below, "Namine! What happened down there?"

The moment Xion appeared, her heart stopped beating nervously. Of course, she forgot about Xion. She liked Roxas since…well it didn't matter, they…looked good together. Her heart was limping when she told herself this, "To everyone…to this person too…I can't let them worry anymore." She stood up from the ground and faked a smile, "I'm alright." "I can't let this person's smile disappear because of me." A nervous laugh came along with it, "Haha, I tripped and somebody saw huh?"

"Oh silly Namine!" Xion grinned.

The blond girl continued to fake a happy expression, staring right at Roxas' direction, "I'll promise to be stronger. Right now, if the path I can't avoid is being tested, the least I can do, is not run away at all…" Uh oh. Her eyes were beginning to water, she could feel it, plus her vision was starting to blur. She turned away so they wouldn't see the tears that escaped, quickly waving a small farewell before running towards the station again.

Xion smiled as she was about to close the windows, noticing Roxas' frozen state, "Roxas, what's wrong?"

Train Station

"Enjoy your trip," the girl at the booth smiled, handing the blond girl her passenger ticket. She muttered a thank you, then quickly stared at the paper to see which number she was boarding on.

"The doors for Destiny Islands are closing, passengers for Destiny Islands must aboard the train immediately." Repeated the intercom and in an instant, travelers from all over appeared as she followed suit.

"I made it…" Namine leaned against the wall of the train and sighed in exhaustion. She was tired of all the wait, the what ifs, she needed an answer from him. She was shaking nervously at the thought of finally being able to get a response.

The beeping from the train doors started to close. That is, until a skateboard intervened making the doors reopen automatically to reveal the familiar blond boy. "R-Roxas?" She stuttered, she was stunned to see him here, now, when the only person she told was Olette. She blinked. Of course…Olette would be the person who'd call him at times like this. "W-What are y-you doing here?"

He walked over to her, with a face of concern and slight annoyance, "Olette called my house and told me. Who did you think I came all the way here for?"

"I was going to come back," She protested, but the look on his face meant more than that. Before either of them could make a move, they could feel the train departing from the station just when the doors shut tight.

"I'm going with you, Namine."

Oh, how she prayed that this trip wouldn't take long.

A/N: I apologize for the very long delay in updating. I would like to thank those that wished me well when I was in the hospital :) Oh and writing up this chapter was a very long process for me :P There were many scenes I wanted to write up, but I also didn't want to get off topic. It may seem sudden that Namine's meeting all these characters at once, but this was a story that I intended to keep at a minimum of 5-6 chapters. I wouldn't blame you if you thought this chapter was rushed.

I hoped you guys enjoyed reading this, you don't know how many times I had to listen to Nina's "Someday" song and pocky boxes to brainstorm this chapter - this was the hardest to write up. You know those moments when you know what you want to happen but writing it seems different from what you've planned? Yeah, that was me.

Ever since the recent Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days came out, I've seen many stories that involve Xion, haha. I wanted to add her into this and keep her as an optimistic type. No, she is not going to be a mean girl in this story. Kind of. This chapter is odd. I will admit that. Namine is still trying to figure out how to put her happiness together in her life, so it sorta seems like she's in denial. Poor girl.

Chapter 2 Reviewers to Thank: Fanfiction Fanatiction: Ahaha, yes that was long. :P Too bad I couldn't update AS SOON, but hopefully, this longer chappie was enough to make it up! Inspiration of Imagination: Thank you, I've been trying to write up stories that had some sort of uniqueness (if that's even a word) from others. ATOMIC ORANGE: Yay! I'm happy that you're happy! I'm glad you understand Sora's situation, love is a very difficult battle. Especially ones that are left unsaid. Poor Namine. Ramen and Chopsticks: I'm glad my efforts of creating a long chapter is appreciated. You'll figure out what happens? Next chapter will be an even bigger twist. First Day High: Yes, what Sora did was hurtful, let's find out how the ending will be with our hero/heroine :) Automatic Code Red 123: Yep, many reviewers would agree, glad to see that it was worth writing up. Hahaha, we needed a comical moment - Cloud was perfect for the part. chococrepes: Thanks! I have to admit, trying to get the start of the story going is very difficult. It seems like with Xion around, there's going to be another pairing developing after Namine and Roxas - I still love them of course. Competition! Gogglelicious: It made you laugh? Hahahahaha yes if it's the Cloud and Tifa scene, I can agree. Ah, good point, Roxas almost seems like a ladies' man without trying to act like one. We need more boys like that in our world, lol. U.W.A.H Squad: The one and only comical moment worth reading huh? :) Haha that was a funny mini convo. Pandapple: It was also the cheesiest thing I thought of, but hey it works. Kiome-Yasha: Oh my, a VERY WONDERFUL long review. Thank you!!! =] Ahaha, I'm a Cloti fan too so don't worry. Yes! That Sora is the messy type, thankfully we have Roxas around to help clean up, haha. Only problem is another girl who happens to join our story - Xion. Gasp! I'm worried for Namine's future...Kingdom~sky: I love how you wrote you were arrowed by cupid, what a wonderful comment. Yes, these tangled feelings must be rearranged to their correct orders! I hoped you enjoyed this chapter. DreemKii: :) I thought the clipboard scene would be an uncliche way to get these two to get together, don't you think so? storycreater: The Philippines is a busy place, but I loved shopping around. Nina's singing voice is very much different from other Philippine singers, especially her "Someday" song. I guess that's what attracted me to listen to it. Hopefully you're starting to catch on the lyrics' purpose to the story. And don't worry, these complications will all be settled by the end of the story. If only they could just be honest with each other! Haha.

Coming up! Chapter 4: Namine doesn't have a choice but to take Roxas with her. Though her mind is made up and ready to confess to her first love, she'll discover more of what's been happening behind her back. Not only that, Xion decides to follow them and ruin their EVERY moment. This is going to be tougher than a love triangle...
