The truth is out there and it hurts

[Namine was just hiding out in the library, curled up in a chair in a more hidden area, reading a book, when the rooms suddenly filled with smoke.

She drops the book into her lap as she's reduced to coughing into her hand.]

W-what?

[And she hugs him back, crying onto his shoulder.]

[he hushes softly and runs his fingers through her hair.]

[saphire-wave.livejournal.com]

[And she just hugs him a little tighter at that.]

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

[he rests his cheek against the top of her head, sighing shakily.]

[saphire-wave.livejournal.com]

[And eventually, she begins to calm down again. The crying stops. But she doesn't move away from him.]

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

[he's okay with that. see? he can stand touching people again!]

[saphire-wave.livejournal.com]

[Yay! Cause she's missed this.]

...Roxas?

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

[tenses. not another question...]

Yes, Namine?

[saphire-wave.livejournal.com]

[She looks up at him.]

I'm...I'm sorry. About earlier. I'm sorry.

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

...it's okay. I don't like that you pushed it so hard, but I was wrong to keep stuff from you... and I'm sorry that I...

[he doesn't even know how to say it, even under the influence of the smoke. he hadn't cheated because he hadn't done anything, and he'd thought she didn't need to know since he'd never intended to do anything either.]

[saphire-wave.livejournal.com]

It's just. Some of the stuff that your Gemini said. It really got to me. I'm sorry.

[Looks away again.]

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

...what did he say?

[saphire-wave.livejournal.com]

[Oh, why did he ask that?]

H-he said, that you only ch-chose to be with me, and not someone else, b-because you were sure that I was available.
And that you were d-disgusted by me, after what happened, with my Gemini.

And, that you h-hated me, for being weak...And, th-that you'd found someone else, who you c-could rely on. Someone who could actually h-help...

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

[...he hugs her a bit tighter.]

My gemini is a liar, Namine.

[saphire-wave.livejournal.com]

......He told the truth about some things...

[She should really learn to shut up.]

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

[damn, and he thought he'd managed to avoid the issue using a truthful but a bit too general statement.]

...Why am I thinking about bringing a new Namine into the dressing room? ^^;

[saphire-wave.livejournal.com]

[She'll drop the subject if he really wants her to.

Just, glances away. She really wishes that she'd just stayed in her room. She's upset Roxas and herself by all this.]

because that would be cool? :3

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

[he sort of wishes that she would have too. or that he would have.]

^^; I'll bring her in once I've figured out a good Username. But it should be tonight.

[saphire-wave.livejournal.com]

[Well, at least Roxas knows that she isn't using him as a replacement? That's good. Right?]

^_^

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

[that is great... and hey, maybe this smoke thing wasn't so bad. he only wished it hadn't have to be so... forceful.]

Just be warned. While she's not exactly bad, you still may want to be careful around her. ^^;

[saphire-wave.livejournal.com]

[Yeah. The forcefulness wasn't so great.]

*takes notes*

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

[...sighs. might as well go all out.]

Namine... can I ask you something? I don't want to make you answer, so just say if it isn't okay and then I won't ask now.

Good. XD

[saphire-wave.livejournal.com]

[Blink.]

I...

[...It wouldn't be fair to not let him ask his question after what she asked him...Still, she's kinda nervous about this.]

...You can ask. I guess.

[roxasreplica.livejournal.com]

...will you be angry if I keep hanging out with my friends?

[saphire-wave.livejournal.com]

[Blink blink.]

No. Of course not.
