Our song-
Namine had always thought that couples having a song that they referred to as, "our song", was the cutest thing ever. Being able to belt it out together at the top of your lungs when it came on the radio in the car, or dancing to it at your wedding, or even just appreciating what the message of song symbolized for the two of you. It was downright thrilling to her.
Roxas had never really seen the idea as anything earth-shattering, but as soon as Namine had brought it up, he was determined to help them find a song that they could label as "theirs".
It proved to be much harder than he had first expected, each song that he thought could work for them dissapointing him in the end for not being emotional enough or perhaps too emotional.
Roxas was currently sitting at his computer, headphones hanging lazily around his neck and he sighed and flopped back in his seat in despair.
"How can it be this hard to find the perfect song?" He muttered, Hayner replying with a shrug of his shoulders as he read through one of Roxas's mechanic magazines.
"At this point you might as well write your own song!" Pence added jokingly, Hayner joining in on the laughter and high-fiving his friend's wit.
Roxas startled both teenagers as he stood from his seat with a squeak of the casters, slamming his hands on his desk.
"Pence," Roxas whispered, the brunette now afraid he had gone too far with his joke.
"You're a genius!" Roxas turned towards the pair with a wide grin, before he bolted towards his book shelves, searching frantically for an empty notebook.

"To this day, I don't think that Roxas ever actually completed that song!" The laughter in the room caused a blush to bloom across the groom's face at his groomsman's words.
"Anyway, to Roxas and Namine! Even though you never got to have your own song, I certainly hope you can discover your own happily ever after!" Hayner said, raising his glass towards the happy couple.
As Hayner sat, he passed the microphone to an irked looking Roxas, smirking as he did so.
"You know Hayner, I love how you always have such a talent for ruining my surprises! I don't think you even really try! It's just a gift!"
The crowd laughed and Hayner let out an indignant, "Hey!" Before an expression of confusion crossed his features.
"Wait, what?"
Roxas smirked as he nodded towards the DJ, a soft melody starting to play over the speaker system. Namine's hand shot to her mouth as she watched her new husband walk towards the middle of the room, words that he written just for her ,sung through his lips.
[Listen to Because You Live by Jesse McCartney for the full effect.]
Tears welled up in her eyes as she listened to the beautiful masterpiece that Roxas, her husband, was singing as if she were the only person in the room. No, the only person in the world!
As he finished the song and made his way back to the wedding party table, Namine rose from her seat and embraced him fiercely, planting an affectionate kiss upon his lips. Roxas was only shocked momentarily before he returned her kiss with just as much vigor, only encouraged by the riotous applause of their guests.
"How's that for 'our song'?" He asked her once he could find his voice.
Tears sprang back to Namine's eyes and she smiled sweetly.
"It's the best thing I've ever heard," and that she planted another kiss on his lips, her gratitude expressed in the best way she knew how.
It would have been absolutely perfect if Haynes's words didn't interrupt them.
"You mean it took you six years to write that?"
