Hi everyone, Jasmine here! Cami and I are leaving very early tomorrow morning for a week-long vacation, so lucky you gets to read Saturday's scheduled posting today! Don't worry, Wednesday's chapter should be posted on time, if all goes well.

The adorableness in this chapter is potentially lethal. I advise sitting while reading, and not reading while everyone else is asleep since you might wake them with your squeals of 'awwww'. :D

We don't own KH/FF.

Reno leaned back on the couch, flipping through television channels and mostly just being disappointed in what was on.

"Hey." Riku said, plopping down next to him. "I don't think I told you - I'm spending Sunday at Sora's. Sorry."

Reno glanced over, "Whaaaat? You're ditching me for your boyfriend. Some family loyalty you have." he grumbled.

Riku rolled his eyes. "He's better looking than you. Why don't you invite Namine over?"

Reno glared at his brother grumbling something about impossibilities, and spoke, "That's a good idea. Think she has plans?"

"Doubt it. If she does, I bet you ten bucks she changes them to hang with you, especially when you make yourself sound all pitiful by complaining your brother ditched you." Riku smirked.

"I'm not taking that bet, but only because I'd be hoping that you'd win it." Reno rolled his eyes.

Riku's smile faded and he studied his brother seriously. "What are you doing, Reno?"

Reno raised an eyebrow, "Watching TV?"

"With Namine. What are you doing? She's one of my best friends. Don't mess around with her." Riku said.

"I'm not messing around with anyone, Riku." Reno said, "She came by the bar and we went on a date." he shrugged, "I wouldn't mess around with her."

"You went on a date? So you're actually serious about her? Oh. Well, still. Don't let either of yourselves get hurt - I'm attached to both of you." Riku grinned wryly.

Reno rolled his eyes, "You have a startling lack of faith in me."

"I just said don't let yourself get hurt, and you complain I don't have faith in you. I have faith in you! Otherwise, I'd be moving Namine into the Witness Protection Program to hide her from you. Chill out. You want my support, you have it as long as no one gets hurt. I'd be happy to get drunk with you one night and, you know, actually stay with you instead of barricading my bedroom door." Riku said, laughing.

Reno laughed, "Yeah, that'd be nice."

Riku grinned. "Great. Now call Namine and invite her over on Sunday while I go call Sora."

Reno rolled his eyes, "Alright, alright."

Riku slapped his shoulder and pulled out his cell phone, already talking as he made his way to his bedroom. "Sora? It's Riku..."

Reno leaned back on the couch again, fishing out his cell phone and dialing Namine's number.

"Hello?"

XXXX

"Hey Namine, it's Reno."

Namine smiled, glad she'd slipped out of class to answer her phone. "How are you?"

"Not too horrible, I guess. Riku just informed me that he's ditching me on Halloween, leaving me with no one to hang out with."

Namine laughed. "You poor thing. He's going to spend the day with Sora, then?"

"Yep. Which leads to the reason I called. Whatcha doing on Halloween?"

"Usually, I spend the day watching Halloween movies with my sister, but I don't think she's going to be here this year. Are you inviting me over?" The blonde asked, walking down the hall a little, pacing.

"Yes, I am, if you're interested. If you're not, I'm not, because I'm not sure I could bear the rejection." Namine could practically feel the grin on his face.

"I am half-way interested. What are we going to do? Do you have to work that night?" She asked.

"I have the night off. Tifa has some kind of party for kids in the restaurant every year, and that means no bar." Reno explained. "As for what we do, that's up in the air at the moment."

"All right. I'll bring some movies. But you have to buy candy and popcorn. Since I'm not completely sure of Kairi's plans yet, would you mind picking me up?" Namine asked.

"I don't mind in the slightest, as long as Riku doesn't steal my car again."

"Great! What time should I expect you?" She asked.

"That depends on what time you'd like to be picked up. I've got nothing to do all day."

Namine laughed. "Well, that depends on how long you want to be stuck with me."

"I could pick you up right now, if you'd like."

"That's sweet of you to say, and I wish I could let you, but I still have classes left and you have work tonight. I'd like to spend the whole day with you Sunday, but I'm afraid we'll run out of things to do and get bored of each other." Namine said, leaning against the wall and closing her eyes.

"Oh, I highly doubt that, but I'll take it as a challenge. Forget the movies, I'll pick you up in the morning. I've got a surprise for you."

Her eyes opened in surprise. "Tomorrow morning? What are we going to do all weekend?"

"That, my dear, is a surprise. Just be ready, because I will not be returning you until Sunday night."

"Reno..." Namine said, indecisive.

Completely serious now, Reno spoke, "I promise you'll have fun, Namine."

"Okay. All right. What should I pack? Oh god, I've never done anything like this before, it's too short notice! Kairi is going to be surprised!" Namine said, a bubble of laughter escaping her.

Reno chuckled, "Don't fret over packing. Just pack what you would if you were going away for a weekend with Kairi, or something."

"Okay. Okay. I've got to go, I should really get back to class. I'll see you tomorrow morning!" Namine said excitedly.

Reno was smiling, even if Namine couldn't see it, "Can't wait. Will you be ready by ten?"

"Yes, definitely. I'll see you then!" Namine smiled.

"Sounds great. Sorry to steal you from class."

"It's fine. I hate my Friday classes, remember? I really really have to go now. Okay, I'm hanging up. See you tomorrow. Bye, Reno." Namine said.

Reno chuckled, "Bye, Nam."

Seifer slammed the door of the apartment unnecessarily, as he actually had no reason to be going around slamming doors. He was mostly just curious to see his roommates' reactions.
Xigbar walked into the living room. "What's his name and what did he do this time?"

"He doesn't have a name and absolutely nothing, I just felt like slamming the door. Where's Leon?" Seifer asked, plopping into a chair.

"He's at the Rusty Wrench since it's his day off but not Cloud's. And he does too have a name, or did you not find out who is stalking you?" Xigbar asked, sitting on the couch.

"Oh, Hayner? Yeah, he apologized." Seifer shrugged, "And then I punched someone, and I'm pretty sure he inadvertently complimented me. How's Kairi?"

"He complimented your punching skills? What? Seif, you need to stop hanging out on campus with all those kids. And she's good, great. Hot." Xigbar said.

Seifer chuckled, "Sure, that's what he complimented." he rolled his eyes, "I see your standards haven't changed."

"Hey, don't start with me, not when Leon's not here to distract you. And for your information, I really really like Kairi. I think, hell Seif, I think she could be the one." Xigbar said with a sigh.

"Your track record is making it hard to believe you." Seifer shrugged.

"That's fine - you'll see how serious I am when we're together for months and months. By the way, she's coming here tomorrow for Halloween." Xigbar said. He didn't care if Seifer believed him, as long as he wasn't like this when Kairi was actually present.

"You invited her over for Halloween?" Seifer asked, a little surprised.

"Yup." Xigbar shrugged. "You gonna be here or hanging out with your ex-stalker Hayner? What a weird name."

Seifer laughed, "I'm staying here, if you don't mind."

"Sure. We're just going to watch movies, anyway. I want you to meet her, besides. I can never keep track, are you single?"

"Currently, yes." Seifer said, rolling his eyes, "We should have a sign in here that's either green or red, depending on my relationship status or something, because you ask me that question way too often."

He was about to continue, possibly to explain exactly how this sign would work, but Xigbar's phone went off, so he decided not to try and talk over his roommate's ringtone.

Xigbar snorted. "Maybe you should." He muttered, before answering his phone. "Yeah, this is Xigbar. Talk to me."

"Did the world explode or something, because Reno just picked up Namine to steal her for the entire weekend. My sister just left with a boy for the whole weekend. She doesn't DO that. What is going on?"

"Whoa, calm down, Red. Maybe she has a hot date with the guy. They been dating a while or something?" Xigbar asked.

"Not at all. I think they went on one date, maybe, and that was just last week. She only MET him when Riku started locking himself in his room, which wasn't that long ago." Pausing to take a deep breath, she spoke in a much calmer voice, "Sorry, I'm rambling. This just isn't like Namine, it's surprising."

"Sass, calm down. She's a big girl, she can handle herself. I have no idea who Riku is or what him being locked in a bedroom has to do with all of this, but I'm sure everything is fine. Did you call me first or did you try calling her?" Xigbar asked, completely ignoring Seifer now.

"I tried getting her to explain before she left, but she either had just as much of an idea of what was going on as me or she didn't care."

"She cares. Remember? Scarier than Sora. For sure. Just calm down, okay? I'm sure she's fine and having a blast. You try calling the guy?" Xigbar said, running out of ways to calm Kairi down if the answers kept turning out to be no.

"I don't have his number. I could probably get it from Sora-oh, Riku is Sora's boyfriend, by the way, and the guy Nami left with is Riku's older brother." Kairi's thoughts were pretty much jumbled, and that's why nothing that was coming out of her mouth made sense.

"Let me make sure I got that - your sister is dating the older brother of your best friend's boyfriend?" Xigbar asked, ignoring Seifer's look. "Damn, Red, how confusing a life you got?"

There was a pause during which a sound that might have been Kairi slamming her head down onto something hard could be heard, before she mumbled, "Sorry for throwing all this on you."

"Hey, I love hearing your voice. You're cute even when you're panicking, babe. Besides, we're dating, right? Red, it's fine." Xigbar reassured her.

"Thanks..." she mumbled, before she took another breath. "Okay. I feel better. Thank you."

"Anytime. Now we can move on to more pressing matters, like how are you so perfect and why are you spending the day alone?" Xigbar said, smirking.

Seifer snorted and took that as his cue to leave the room, shutting his bedroom door behind him.

"I'm spending my day with a costume, actually, so I wouldn't consider myself alone, but you're welcome to come keep me company if you'd like."

"Hmm... Won't that get you in trouble with the dessert god if I see what it is he had to sneak out of his own house? Don't wanna make even more stress for you, Sass." Xigbar said.

Kairi laughed, "Nah, as long as you don't comment on it, he won't care, really. I was more afraid of you commenting on it and him hearing you in his house. As long as Sora never finds out, I think Roxas will be fine."

"All right. I'll be there soon - don't do anything drastic without me!" Xigbar said.

"I promise not to stab myself with my sewing needle."

"What a relief! I'm leaving now, Red. See you in a few." Xigbar hung up his phone and went into his room to grab his keys. "Seif! I'm going to Kairi's!" He yelled.

"Yeah, whatever!" Seifer called back.

Shaking his head, he yelled, "You need to get laid!" before leaving and heading for his favorite redhead's house.

Namine sighed contentedly, smiling at Reno. "This is the craziest thing I've ever done."

Reno glanced over at her before refocusing on the road, "Running away with a guy you met a couple weeks ago for a weekend?" he asked, "Kind of high on my list too, but I promise I'm not going to murder you or anything." He took his eyes off the road to grin at her before going back to driving.

Namine laughed. "I sure hope not. Still won't tell me where we're going?"

"Nope." Reno smiled at her, "Sorry. You'll find out soon."

"It actually doesn't matter. You could be just driving around in circles and it would still be the most adventurous thing I've ever done. But I am curious as to what you have planned. What are we going to do tonight? Hotel? Sleep in the car?" Namine said in a rush.

"We have a hotel room." Reno said, "Pulled in a favor from a friend." he smiled at her.

"We have a room? Now I have to ask, one bed or two?" Namine asked a little nervously.

Reno stopped at a red light and turned to smile at her, "There are two. Don't worry. I have no intentions of making you uncomfortable this weekend."

Namine smiled. "A completely no worry, fun weekend getaway, just the two of us. Is this as big a deal to you as it is to me? Because I'm excited and terrified. This is such a huge gesture, Reno!"

Reno smiled again, "Well, I've never done this for anyone else before, so I guess it's a pretty big deal." he smiled. "I want you to enjoy this weekend."

Namile shook her head, smiling. "We barely know each other! We went on one date. This is insane! Is it wrong of me to love it anyway?"

Reno laughed, "Of course not!"

Namine shifted in her seat. "Are we almost there?"

"Yep." Reno said, "Ten minutes or so."

"I'm a little nervous." Namine confessed with a grin.

"Don't be." Reno smiled, the car starting to move again as the light turned green, "I know you'll have fun."

"My sister thinks I'm crazy. I should probably call her later to assure her I'm okay. Did you tell Riku what you have planned?" Namine asked.

"Nope." Reno grinned, "He has no idea. Only person with a semblance of an idea of what's going on is Tifa, and that's because I was planning everything out at work last night."

"I completely forgot about your job! Oh, I hope you didn't in trouble for taking tonight off..." Namine said worriedly.

"Did you memorize my work schedule or something?" Reno asked, smirking at her.

Namine blushed lightly. "There's nothing to do in your apartment! There's never anything good on television and when I went looking for a magazine or book, I found your schedule and read it... I'm sorry."

Reno laughed, "Don't apologize. I think it's cute."

Namine put her hands on her cheeks, willing her blush to go away but Reno's comment was not helping.

Reno smiled at her, before turning off the highway they'd been on and onto what seemed almost like a long driveway. As they approached a large gate leading in to massive parking lots, he absentmindedly wondered if he could blindfold Namine with something to surprise her. Oh well, too late now.

Namine's eyes widened and she turned to Reno. "Reno...?"

Reno turned and smiled at her, "Yes?" he asked, trying to find a good parking spot.

"Reno. Are we really here? How did you plan this in one night - it takes weeks to get in! We're staying here?" Namine asked, still in shock.

"Like I said, I called in a favor." Reno grinned, pulling into a parking spot.

Namine grinned and hastily unbuckled, launching herself at Reno, hugging him. "Thank you thank you thank you! I haven't been to Disneyplace since I was little! This is so amazing, you're the best!" She kissed his cheek, pulling back to show him her grin.

Reno laughed, hugging her and readjusting her position so she wasn't awkwardly leaning on the center console of his car, "You're very welcome. I'm glad you're happy."

"This is amazing." She repeated. "And we're really staying here for the whole weekend?" She asked excitedly.

"Yep." Reno answered, smiling at her.

She pulled back completely and reached for the car door, quickly opening it and stepping out the car, Reno getting out as well and grabbing their bags out of the back before locking it. She walked around and grabbed his hand. "Let's go!"

Reno chuckled, squeezing her hand and leading her towards the park.
