Namine looked away from the path in front of her, checking on her pet. He was keeping up just fine, staring straight ahead as the rain came down on top of them. At that moment, Namine was jealous of his natural coat and wished for a bit of that warmth.
Namine tugged gently at Ty's leash, turning to follow Roxas. She didn't find anything strange about him holding her hand; it was starting to rain harder and they both wanted to get inside as quickly as possible. So at least this way they would be at the same pace. Namine picked up her speed, keeping up with Roxas' fast walk.
Namine stopped biting her lip, turning to look in the direction Roxas motioned to. "Right; sorry," she said, having to speak a little more loudly over the rain. She felt goosebumps appear on her arm, but she wasn't sure if it was because of the cold.
Namine met his eyes and nodded, her thoughts stopping dead in their tracks. "Alright," she agreed, liking the idea of not being in the rain any longer than necessary. She picked up her speed, trusting that Roxas would be right beside her to lead them in the right direction. After all, she didn't know where his home was.
Come Home Soon- Shedaisy
Namine bit down on her lip, feeling her teeth begin to chatter. Earlier that day, things had been lovely. The sun was shining and the temperature had been perfect. But now, as the rain fell down on her, Namine realized how quickly things could change. Not only in the physical world, but mentally as well. Just yesterday, she had all her memories...
You should look it up--it's really touching.
Namine's wet bangs came down into her eyes slightly, making her uncomfortable. "Okay," she said, not sure why Roxas had stopped walking. But she had faith that if she started walking again, he would follow. So she turned around and started slowly.
=) Have you ever heard the song "Lucy" by Skillet. It is SO sad.
Namine stopped at the voice, not having really heard what Roxas said. Or at least she didn't understand it. She turned around to look at the teen. "Did you say something?" she asked, sky blue orbs looking directly into Roxas' ocean blue eyes.
So, I was thinking maybe Roxas could invite Namine to his house when it starts pouring. We could say that his house is closer to the park than...
Namine turned to Roxas, giving him a small nod. "Right," she said in agreement. No use standing around. In fact, she didn't know why it took so long for her to start walking. She clicked her tongue once for Ty's sake before starting to walk, guessing Roxas would be close behind.
Namine felt the rain start coming down harder, multiple drops hitting her in less than a second. Great, she thought. Home is blocks away! By the time I get there, I'm going to be soaked... She looked down at her dog, who was anxiously waiting for her command to go home.
Namine nodded to Roxas's question. "Yeah," she said softly, eyes wandering from Roxas to Ty. Ty was just rising to his feet as another lightning bolt lighting the sky. She instinctively gasped and took a step back. But then she was confused. Why was she so afraid of the storm that hadn't even started? A drop of rain fell from the sky, hitting her nose. And then a second and third came down to hit her bare arms.
Namine bit her lip lightly when she heard another loud rumble of thunder. She desperately wanted to just hug her dog and pray things would be alright, but common sense ruled that out. The girl lowered her eyes to the ground, setting a hand on the grass as she rose to her feet.
Tehe, I like the word "smidge." xD
Namine released the dog quickly, her eyes wandering over in the direction of the lightning. Her bright orbs were a bit wider than usual, a sense of discomfort running through her veins. Discomfort...and familiarity. Again. Did she have some kind of bad past with storms or something?
That would probably help. xD
Namine felt one tear run down her cheek, something totally unexpected and unexplainable. She brought up a hand and wiped it away, but Ty had seen it and made an effort to make it go away even after it was gone. He licked her cheek once, and then again to try and please his master. Namine giggled once, wrapping her arms around her dog. She set her head against his, cheek resting lightly on top of his head.
I should pick it up again sometime. xD That is, when I have the patience again. lol I know, me too. Dx
