Namine bit her lip lightly, seeing that Roxas was distressed. The fact that he had even asked the question meant that he had the same thoughts as her; he didn't know what would happen while he was gone. That thought scared both of them, especially Namine. She leaned over slightly and wrapped both of her arms around Roxas' arm that was closest to her, feeling like he needed a bit of comfort.
That's good. x3
"I hope not," Namine added quickly, seeing Roxas' saddened expression. She was completely honest with her answer; she and Roxas had never been apart for too long, so it was impossible to know how things would work out. But she did hope that things would be alright between them, she really did.
During the question, Namine was aware that she was holding her breath. She didn't know how, but she had guessed Roxas would ask something serious along those lines. But what was the answer? So much could change so quickly, and both of them knew that. Between them, though? They had always been strong when they were able to be together, but what about when they were apart? "...I don't know," Namine confessed softly, saddened by her answer.
Namine looked up at the calling of her name, turning her head to face Roxas without thought. "Hm?" she hummed, her soft gaze staying on him. Judging by his tone of voice, it seemed like he had something that he wanted to say.
Okay, so I'll see you about an hour. (=
"I know," Namine admitted quietly, looking down at the carpet. This situation was being fair to either of them, and no matter how badly they wanted to change things around to suite them better, it just wasn't possible.
Okay. Will you be back?
"Me too," Namine confessed softly, her tired blue eyes falling shut. That was going to be really hard, knowing that he was gone and not knowing when he would return. How would she know he was alright? She hated to think of it, but...Would she ever see him again?
May I- Trading Yesterday
Awake And Alive- Skillet
xD That was quite silly. Okay, bye!
Sora's weak smile vanished after a few moments, but he still held Kairi's gaze. He didn't want to look away...He wanted to be able to remember her eyes for a long time, since he wouldn't see the real things for a while. Namine sat there in the silence, not having anything to say. Nothing that registered to her, anyway. But if Roxas had something to say, she would gladly listen. Now she pretty much just wanted to hear his voice and remember it as clearly as possible.
Yeah, that's not really a lighter note. xP But it is going well, even if it's terrible sad.
"Hopefully I'll be able to change that over the next few days," Sora said, a weak smile appearing on his lips. If he had to leave, then he would at least help Kairi prepare for that reality. He wouldn't abandon her completely...He would make sure she was as alright as possible before he was gone. "I know," Namine said softly in acknowledgment. Roxas always did feel the need to apologize when he didn't need too. Actually, she was a lot like that, too. At that moment, she wanted to apologize for her crying a few minutes ago, but she knew that was a subject neither of them wanted to think about.
Yuppers. =/
Sora nodded slightly, locking his jaw. He was hoping for a different answer, but he couldn't expect her to rebound from the news that quickly. He was having a hard time himself, after all. He was already worried about her and he hadn't even left yet. Namine shook her head softly, looking down at the ground. "There's nothing to apologize for," she stated softly. This was beyond any of their control, and she accepted that.
Hold My Heart- Tenth Avenue North
Thinking about it now, I still can't think of how I feel. I guess it'll be bittersweet. I'm looking forward to college and a new start, but I'll...
"...Will you be okay?" Sora finally asked, the words leaving him without much thought. He knew that things weren't alright now, but once he was gone, would things get worse? Or would Kairi be strong enough to handle life on her own for an unknown period of time? He needed to know. Namine nodded faintly her eyes lowering from Roxas' for a moment. "Of course," she said softly, knowing that would be his answer. She exhaled a soft breath and moved back to her position from much earlier, sitting by Roxas' side without clinging to him.
