[hm... he'll have to wake her up to figure out what's wrong... he shakes her lightly.]

Namine?

[Murmurs softly, tensing a little, before slowly opening her eyes, looking up at him. Yeah, she's a light sleeper.]

...Roxas?

[he smiles in relief.]

You're okay. I'm glad.

[Blinks and sits up, looking around. What happened? Oh right, she was training. Dammit, she passed out. Nods.]

Yeah, I'm fine.

[Just little tired.]

[nods and stands up again.]

That's good.

[Stands up as well, just a little shakily. Glances at him.]

...Are you, feeling any better now?

[Cause she's still worried about him.]

[nods and s-smiles as cheerfully as he can manage.]

Yes, much better.

[Gives a small smile in return.]

I'm glad.

[Hmm...Looks through the ninja tool pouch she brought. Where is that stupid...Ah, there it is! Holds out a small jar.]

Here, this will help with any pain.

...thank you.

[accepts it, smiling more sincerely.]

[Nods and smiles a little wider. He's not the Roxas from her world. But she still feels comfortable around him. Roxas and Shinra were always looking out for her. It's only fair that she do the same.]

You're welcome.

[...hugs her because he's really grateful that she's still thinking about him like this. and because she sort of looks like she needs it sometimes.]

[Woah! Hadn't expected that! Also blushes cause she's not so good with close contact. Still, she's not rejecting the hug. She just didn't expect it.]

[he lets her go quickly enough, looking a bit embarrassed himself. partly because even though this isn't his Namine it's a Namine, and partly because he's felt awkward around people since...

well, nevermind. he didn't want to think about that.]

[Glances away, still blushing a little.]

I'm sorry.

[Why cant she be like Kairi or Olette? You know, confident?]

Sorry for what?

Cause...I'm not good at, hugs.

[Cause she's so insecure it's almost laughable...]

...you can't be bad at hugs. Don't worry about that.

I always get nervous when someone gives me a hug. That's not exactly good.

[Not that she gets hugs often.]

You don't have to be nervous.

[unless you're hugged by one of the crazy Saïxes, of course. but he won't say that.]

Just r-relax.

[Or if you're hugged by your crush. But that hasn't happened to her...yet...She might end up passing out again. Might have said something about that stutter. But she wont, cause she doesn't want to risk upsetting him.]

It's not that easy for me to relax.

I understand. Just remember to breathe... and don't worry if you can't relax. It's okay.

[Smiles a little. She nods.]

[s-smiles back, subconsciously keeping his hands against his chest.]

[Notices that. Bites her lip a little.]

D-do you, want t-to use some of that ointment now?

[looks confused for a second before realizing what she's talking about.]

Oh. No, they're not hurting. I just... you know.
