"Okay," Namine said softly, shutting her eyes again. She wasn't going to go against Roxas; He would have been honest if the television would have kept him awake.
Let's find a better stopping point and then we can jump ahead. =)
Namine opened her eyes more, still looking right in front of her. "Won't that keep you up, though?" she asked. "Just because I can't sleep doesn't mean that you have to stay awake, too," she said softly. It would be unfair to expect him to be sleep deprived because of her, and she definitely didn't want that to happen.
Well, at least we have a bit of time to think about it. x3
Namine opened her eyes partway, gazing downward. "I'm not that sleepy," she told him softly. "And besides, I don't think I could fall asleep again that easily." It was hard to say those words, but they were the absolute truth. In times of trouble, she often had a hard time falling asleep unless there was something around that put her mind at ease. Sometimes it was Roxas' simple presence, but other times, it had required more to allow her to fall asleep.
Sounds good. =) Yeah, we'd have to do it someplace like that, but where...?
Namine exhaled a breath, her eyes staying shut at the gesture. She didn't know how to describe the silence surrounding them. That was just it; It was...silent. Nothing more to it.
You can control Riku. =) I've already controlled 10 gagillion other people, so it's your turn. xP I doubt he'd end up permanently in the RP,...
Namine bit her lip lightly, lifting her free hand without thought. She lightly set it on the lower part of Roxas' arm, the one that she was leaning her head against. She couldn't say why she did that; She just wanted to feel a bit closer to him than she already was.
Ah, I see. xD That would be awesome, but who would control Riku? And Leon, for that matter? Actually, I think King Mickey would be the most...
Namine shut her eyes, a soft breath leaving her. It seemed like it was going to be a process to get rid of her fear, so what would she do until then? The nightmares would probably return, and get worse, if that was possible.
Brief glances? Like what, for example? You can come up with it; It's your idea. xP
Namine held Roxas' gaze for a few moments before she lowered her head, going into the position she had been in before. She didn't want to think too deeply, but at the same time, it was probably necessary. She didn't know what she could do to conquer the fear except be more bold with her living. Don't be paranoid when walking alone on the streets; Don't feel nervous in her own house when nighttime comes. Maybe it was little steps like those that would help.
Ah, that stinks. Dx Let me know if you remember it.
Namine opened her eyes at Roxas' soft-spoken words, the phrase making her feel a bit better. She tilted her head upward slightly and looked up at Roxas, giving him a weak smile that showed her appreciation. They'd be together, so things would be alright. They had always made it through hardships before, so they would make it through this one as well.
Alrighty, let's do it. x3 You have anything more specific in mind than what you told me last night?
Namine stayed silent, not knowing what to say. She knew that Roxas felt bad, and he wanted to help, but there wasn't much he could do in this situation. She didn't expect him to make everything better, because that would be unfair to expect that out of him. He was her guardian angel, but he couldn't solve every problem that came her way. She accepted that without holding a grudge--After all, how could she put her loved one in an unreasonable position like that? There was no way she could do that to anyone, let alone Roxas.
Tehe, yup. xDD
Namine shut her eyes to keep the newly formed tears locked inside. Now that she had confessed her fear of Smith, she wondered what would happen. Would things get worse? She had a feeling that they would, unless she took control of her fear. But like she had told Roxas a few moments ago, she had no clue how to do that.
We could probably get more out of your situation; It's a bit more complex. It's up to you what we do...Good luck figuring it out! xDD
