Jeff's eyes widened slightly at Roxas' words, knowing that his brother had just been threatened. "I said I don't know where he is," Jeff said tensly, his hands clenching into light fists by his sides. It wasn't because he was going to take Roxas on, but because he felt frustrated. "He was supposed to meet me here about 15 minutes ago, but he obviously isn't here." Namine's eyes widened at Brian's words, some anger coming into her eyes as well as fear. She stayed silent for a moment, thinking that it would be better not to speak again. "When will he be back?" Brian questioned, his eyes staring fiercely at Namine. Namine shrugged slightly, not saying a word.
Alrighty, sounds good. =)
"I honestly don't know," Jeff said, lifting his head at Roxas' stern voice. Namine's eyes widened slightly at the response, her eyes staying locked on Brian. "You really don't want to mess with him, Brian. You're making a big mistake." "No." Brian snapped, his eyes staring daggers at Namine. "No, Roxas made the mistake of beating up Jeff. That's a mistake he'll never make again..." "Roxas doesn't want to beat up your brother," Namine stated, her eyebrows furrowing slightly. "What's done is done. You should just get out while you can." "Shut up!" He yelled in anger, taking a step closer to Namine. "I'll do what I want to do, and I don't need some little princess to tell me otherwise."
Okay. It's not like I'll be controlling Jeff throughout the whole thing, anyway. I'll probably have him leave sometime before or during the Brian...
Jeff hesitated for a moment, not sure that he wanted to rat out his brother. But then again, Brian hadn't exactly been himself lately; he had changed for the worse. And he was sure that Roxas was going to get an answer out of him anyway. Since he didn't want to get beat up, he just decided to answer the question. "Brian," he said finally, his eyes going to the ground. "Brian, my brother." "What do you want?" Namine asked again, her voice stern and demanding an answer. "What do I want?" Brian repeated in a slightly mocking tone, not fond of being bossed around by a tiny little blond girl. "I want revenge for my brother, of course."
Well, it's my idea, so I really don't mind having 3 characters. I actually feel kinda bad with you only having one...but since I already have...
"Where's Roxas?" Brian asked again, taking a few steps into the living room and coming over towards Namine. "He's not here," Namine answered honestly, covering the tremble in her voice the best she could. "Why?" Brian didn't respond, his eyes going toward the open window. He couldn't wait forever, or Jeff would wonder where he was. He was already running late and he hadn't even beat up Roxas yet. Roxas had hurt his brother, shaming him with the black eye. So he had to restore his brother's honor by beating up the punk who gave him that look. Jeff stood himself upright more, his hands coming out of his pockets and hanging at his sides. He really didn't know what to expect from Roxas, but he definitly didn't want to get hit again.
Let's hope I don't get kicked off now; that would be horrible. D8
Jeff raised his head at the sound of the voice, not immediatly recognizing it. He turned to face direction and saw Roxas coming towards him, surprising him. What did Roxas want? It wasn't like he had asked for any more trouble... "Hello Namine," Brian stood in the doorway, looking at the girl seriously. "Where's Roxas?" Namine moved her hands to her side slightly and turned her body so she could see Brian better, surprise still shining in her eyes. "What're you doing here?" She asked him, fright, surprise, and frustration in her voice.
Yes it is. ;D
Jeff casually leaned himself against the side of the store building, his head down slightly as he gazed at the ground. He was waiting for his brother to show up, but he was running late for some reason. Where was Brian...? Namine started to bite her lip again, though she wasn't sure why. There was just something that didn't quite feel right...A loud noise brought her out of her thoughts, and she heard the front door slam open and then shut again. Roxas? No; that couldn't have been Roxas. Why would he walk in so loudly? Namine flitted her eyes to the doorway between the living room and the entrance hall, waiting for something else to happen. Her eyes widened when she saw the person enter the living room. It was the one who had kicked her a few days ago, with blonde hair almost identical to his brother's. Brian.
Namine looked over at the window when she thought she saw some movement out of the corner of her eye, but there was nothing there. She exhaled softly, mentally scolding herself for her small amount of nervousness. Of course there's movement outside, it's a city, she told herself, her eyes falling to the floor again.
Namine bit her lip subconciously, her gaze staying lowered to the floor. The faint noises continued outside, but she wasn't too worried about it, since it was only the wind.
Namine exhaled slowly, her eyes lowering to the ground when she heard the soft sound of thunder. And then after that, the wind started to blow again. Along with that noise, there was also the light sound of tapping, which Namine assumed was caused by the wind.
Namine heard the wind blowing outside, sounding as if it were getting stronger. It would probably start to rain soon, so she hoped that Roxas would be home soon.
Namine gently wrapped her arms around her stomach as she sat on the couch, starting to get a little more comfortable.
Namine finished sitting herself up, feeling some pain in her stomach from the bruising. She shut her eyes and inhaled slowly, trying to get that feeling to go away. It definitly hurt, but at least it wasn't as bad as it had been.
Namine exhaled softly, setting one hand down in front of her. She slowly started to push herself into a sitting position, a little uncomfortable from lying down for so long.
Namine smiled softly as her eyes followed Roxas, watching the boy until he disapeared. She heard him close the door behind him after he left, leaving her by herself.
Namine nodded softly at Roxas, knowing that he would be back before the rain started. "Okay." OOC: Sorry about the delay, the computer was taken for a little bit. =/
