Namine smiled softly, noticing how Roxas got shy from her words. He always seemed to have that reaction, and Namine thought it was absolutely adorable. "You're welcome," she responded quietly, a gentle smile still on her lips as she gazed up at Roxas.
That could be one way of doing it. I think it could work.
Namine held Roxas' gaze, something she hadn't done in a very long time. She saw some of the heaviness being lifted, probably because she called him her guardian angel. That always made him smile. Now that he did have a smile on his lips, Namine wanted to keep it there. "...Because you're the best guardian angel I could ever hope for," she said softly, a gentle smile on her lips as she added that little tid-bit into the conversation.
I know what you mean; I can't think of anything either. Dx
Namine felt a weak smile appear on her lips, the girl appreciating Roxas' words. She understood that he didn't mind protecting her. But this wasn't just about him...she needed to be a little bit less vulnerable for herself. That would help solve things in her eyes, though she would always call Roxas her guardian angel. "I would like that," Namine said softly, bringing her head off of Roxas' chest slightly as she looked up at him. "But you'll always be my guardian angel," she said with a soft smile, that smile being the first one she wore in a very long time.
Let's just hope it stays that way.
Namine nodded faintly against Roxas' chest, her gaze staying down. Sora and Roxas did have a very strong bond, but the one that Namine and Roxas shared was even more powerful. It really hurt her, knowing how often he put himself in the line of fire for her sake. She wasn't able to defend herself at all lately, and though she knew she could always depend on Roxas, she didn't want him to have that kind of pressure. He shouldn't have to worry about her all the time, but the way things were going, he was worrying about her. Almost all the time.
Me too. D8 I know what you mean...it's so crazy. =/
Namine exhaled silently, taking in Roxas' words. Actually, that was hard to believe. She got into so many bad situations, and she could never get herself out. She couldn't see how she wasn't a burden. But then again...when you loved someone, you always did what you could to help them. Is that how Roxas saw things? That was the only way she could think of. "I'll try to believe that," Namine said softly in response, opening her eyes partway to gaze at the floor. "It just bothers me that you get into so many bad situations because I can't seem to protect myself..." Namine bit her lip lightly, not completing that thought.
Yeah, I guess so. =/
Namine suddenly felt weak, exhausted from everything that happened. Emotionally, she was a little better than before, but she was still in the process of coping with all this. Physically, she was weakend as well; she hadn't done much moving in the past hours, both because of sleep, and before that...being tied to a pole. She remembered now that she had marks on her face, and she was sure her wrists were bruised as well. She shut her eyes a bit more tightly, that thought saddening her.
Yes, but we won't get in much RPing this week. D8
Namine sniffled again, pulling herself closer to Roxas without thought. There was something in his voice that made her go silent, and it took a brief moment for her to figure out what it was: it was hurt. She had hurt Roxas with her words, which she had only said because she was hurt. And in a way, she still was hurt. Yesterday had been a tragedy, and it was going to take a while for her to get over it. She hoped the recovery wouldn't take too long...for either of them.
Well, that works out well. xD My game is in the early afternoon. I don't know when I have to leave for it, though.... =/
Namine swallowed again, her tears starting to slow down as she calmed down. She turned her head again, her cheek resting lightly on Roxas' chest. After a few moments, she spoke again, needing to get this off her chest. "I shouldn't have doubt you, Roxas," Namine said in a soft voice, the words coming out in close to a whisper. "I'm sorry. I won't do it ever again."
I have tomorrow off for break, but I have a game anyway. D8 My break was Thursday (even though I was away) and Friday, and tomorrow.
Namine heard Roxas' words, and they immediatly impacted her heart. He was so forgiving...so loving and gentle. She didn't know how she could ever repay him for loving her. His love meant everything to her; it was what she lived on every day. And if she had lost that, well, she couldn't go on. And that thought frightened her, almost as much as she had been frightened by Smith. "I was just....so scared," Namine said shakily, the girl turning her head halfway through the sentence and burrying her head in Roxas' chest, making the last words sound muffled. Smith took advantage of her vulnerable state, and his words had been so cutting, so cruel and brutilizing.
Yeah, it is. I'll probably see him tomorrow, he's going to try and come to my soccer game. Speaking of which...I have 3 games this week. DDx
Namine exhaled shakily, the tears still flowing. Everything that happened, it just affected her so much. And though she didn't believe Smith's lies anymore, she felt guilt from believing them before. And because of Roxas' silence, she didn't know if he forgave her or not. She had a feeling he did, but she wasn't sure, so she continued speaking. "E-Everything just happened so suddenly," Namine said through her tears, her voice holding a slight tremble because of sadness and fear. "I didn't mean to give in to his lies--It just happened." Namine pulled herself closer to him, letting her cheek rest against Roxas' chest as she kept herself close to him. "Please forgive me," she whispered, tears continuing to flow from her closed eyes.
Not officially, but we pretty much are. =)
