Goodbye! =)
Namine held Roxas' shirt a little more tightly, her eyebrows furrowing as she held back tears. She knew she would have to let go in a minute, but she didn't allow herself to get a head start on that. She would hold on as long as possible, since it would be a while since she was able to do this again. Sora's lips separated partway, a pained expression crossing his eyes and then sinking back into the depths. He took Kairi's call as an invitation and he stepped forward to be a bit closer. Then he wrapped his arms around her, one of his hands finding the back of Kairi's head. He gently brought it towards him and he lifted his chin a bit, setting it on top of her red hair.
It's alright. to both things. I'm really tired, anyway. xP Hopefully I'll see you tomorrow!
Namine had a fist around the fabric as she turned her head on his shoulder, her cheek resting on it. I won't cry...I won't....she thought as her eyes became more moist. This was the time for goodbyes--the tears that came along with it would have to wait until she was alone. Sora felt frozen. Paralyzed. At that moment, he wasn't sure if it was possible to leave Kairi behind. He had known this would be hard, but now it seemed absolutely impossible to follow through with this. But he knew at the same time that not only was it possible, but it was necessary. So many people were counting on him, including Kairi. He had to save the other worlds to protect her....Right?
Aww, alright. =/ You think you'll be back?
Namine immediately wrapped an arm around Roxas in resposne this embrace, the girl feeling herself sag slightly in his arms. Of course, though, she wasn't letting any tears fall. Not at this point, anyway. She lifted her other hand up and wrapped it around as well, this hand being lifted so that she could grab the fabric of Roxas' jacket near his shoulder. Her eyes shut as she tried to hold onto him just a moment longer, wanting to never forget what it felt like to be in his arms. Sora held Kairi's gaze, but he didn't have to look into her eyes to know what she was feeling. He knew exactly what she was experiencing, because in his heart he was feeling the same things. Sadness. Concern. Longing. All that he wanted to do was stay with her forever and care for her like she deserved, but at that moment, he couldn't do that.
Hopefully. I have some plans that day, too, but I should be on sometime during the afternoon. Dx Gah, I hate being busy!
Namine felt as if she couldn't breathe. It felt like somebody had taken a hold of her throat and wouldn't let go. But eventually she overcame the sensation and took in a breath. It was a bit shaky, but that didn't surprise her, considering the tension surrounding her and her friends. Though Kairi lowered her gaze, Sora kept his on her. He had thought of what to say a lot over the past few days, but in the end, he hadn't thought of a single good thing. But what was he supposed to do? This was an impossible situation, so he couldn't think up a few words to make it better.
Okie dokie. You can probably expect me on around 2:30 my time. That's just a guess. I'll probably be on in the morning, too.
Namine forced herself onward, slowing down when she was closer to her boyfriend. She stopped herself completely when she was about two feet in front of him. Behind her back, she adjusted the grip her hands had on one another, hoping it would somehow distract her from the horrible situation. Of course, it didn't do anything, because the situation was right in front of her, and it couldn't be avoided. Sora winced faintly, bringing his fist to his heart. He felt what Kairi desired, and he almost shouted out for her to run to him. But he clenched his teeth and held her gaze, staying silent instead. His urge to hold her was so great, because he wanted to make things better. In this case, though, a hug couldn't solve their problems.
I was just wondering because I'm going to be pretty busy tomorrow. =/ We can probably get in some time during the afternoon, but not much.
Sora shut his eyes for a brief moment, the teen taking in a deep breath before releasing it. He had to calm himself down; his raging emotions weren't good for anyone here. One of his hands uncurled as he opened his eyes, but the other stayed in the form of a fist at his side. He kept his eyes on Kairi now, his ocean blue orbs looking directly into her's. Namine lifted her head after a moment, and she nearly stopped when she saw the sight right in front of her. Roxas and Sora were a little bit ahead of them, with Roxas being the nearer of the two. The blond kept her hands behind her back as she headed forward, her gaze staying on Roxas. She didn't want to look away....not now, not ever.
Never Be The Same- Red
How late do you think you'll be on tonight?
Sora looked up at the call, the teen looking to Roxas at first. But then he noticed some other movement that caught his attention. He gazed at that instead and immediately recognized that the girls had arrived. He felt frozen at that moment, his eyes wide with nervousness and sadness. Namine looked down, feeling her feet drag a bit as she walked forward. She didn't want to do this--not at all. But she didn't have a choice, either. So it was in her best interest to put on a brave face and deal with the reality she hated.
Out From Under- Red
Sora lifted a hand and put it on the back of his head, his gaze falling to the ground. He had no clue what to expect with this departure. The last one that he and Kairi had gone through had been much more sudden, and in a way, it was a bit easier. It had taken a while for the emotion to settle in instead of it all impacting him when he left. When Namine felt a light breeze blowing, she instinctively tucked a strand of her long blond hair behind her ear. Once that was done, she clasped her hands behind her back. She desperately just wanted to run the other way and pretend none of this was happening, but her feet led her forward, toward her farewell.
Death Of Me- Red
Okie dokie. Then that's what we'll do. =)
Sora walked over to the side, giving himself a couple yards between himself and Roxas. When the girls arrived, he was sure that both of them would appreciate the privacy. Just the thought of saying goodbye to Kairi made his heart ache, but he did his best to try and ignore that emotion. After all, the pain wouldn't do anyone favors now, would it? Namine finally lifted her eyes, seeing the building right in front of her. She knew that whether she looked it or not, it was time. And she wasn't ready for it. In fact, she never would be. But of course, this situation wasn't easy for anyone. She wouldn't act like she was the only one suffering, because she wasn't.
