Namine clenched her fists in her side, and furrowed her brows. That did it. "Because you weren't here!" she finally cried, spinning around to face Roxas. Her eyes were defensive now, but they were filled with more pain and sadness then she had shown Roxas since he had gotten home.
Yeah, I'm not sure... But anyway, bear with me for the next few posts. Just have Roxas listen or say one word things, 'cuz Namine's gonna have a...
Oh, really? I recall that V2 was closed with a little over 4K.
Namine finally looked over at Roxas, only to be met with a chilling glare. Her eyes widened slightly in surprise and she rose to her feet without thought, turning her back to him. "Because," she said, giving that one word as her answer.
I'm surprised the thread hasn't been locked yet; it has over 4,000 posts.
Namine shook her head and looked up in front of her, gazing at the wall. "...I can't give you an answer like that," she declared softly. She was beginning to think over the question herself, which she hated. She didn't like thinking over the past two months, especially not the first two weeks when things were completely awful.
You know, it just might. xD This whole thread is pure epicness, if I do say so myself.
Namine tensed, Roxas' tone much colder than any he had ever used against her before. She could understand why; she was responsible for Kairi having a new boyfriend. Not directly, but still, she felt completely responsible. "What kind of answer do you want?" she asked, avoiding his gaze.
Probably Smith as well. We've had a lot of good other ones, but that one will always be on top. ;3
Namine blinked at the question, hearing Roxas' tone. She didn't want to answer that, not to Roxas, and not to herself. "Just because," she said, that being the only answer she could bring herself to give. She felt herself become more tense, the girl somehow knowing that this conversation was far from over.
It sure does. ;D
Namine furrowed her eyebrows in concentration, trying to figure out a way to word this so that she wouldn't feel so much guilt. "...Kairi had wanted to hang out with me, but I said no," she explained quietly, staring at the couch. "If I had said yes, maybe she wouldn't have met him."
True. xD *Sigh* We've had a lot of fun in The Epic Return.
Namine shifted her gaze away from Roxas and back down to the couch. "...But I agree with you; I wish things had turned out differently. If I had..." She trailed off there, not daring to say the words aloud. If she said them verbally, then that would make the situation feel more real. Her flaws would be out in the open, and she didn't want that. She was judging herself harshly enough already.
No, not really. xD
Namine looked up, surprised that Roxas was still pushing that point. He just doesn't understand how hard those two months were, she thought, trying to make sense of Roxas' behavior. "Don't be too hard on her," she said softly. "It's been a rough time." She didn't say it was a rough time just for Kairi, because it had been very rough on Namine too. The difference between them was that Namine pushed herself away from others during that time and Kairi embraced somebody new.
That's what I was thinking. =)
Namine shook her head, avoiding Roxas' gaze. She could tell by his voice that he was upset, and she was too, though she was keeping it to herself. "I don't think it's that," she said softly, gazing at the couch. "I think she just missed him and this guy got her on the rebound." She didn't like thinking that Kairi would jump from guy-to-guy that easily, but it had happened, whether she liked it or not. And she didn't.

Haha, well, I think Johnson was another thug you controlled.
