...What an idiot. :|

[runawayxiiith.livejournal.com]

[There's a quiet shifting on the bed as he opens his eyes. Slowly, one, two, three...

He sees somebody's face next to him. Hmm? Dark hair... It looks familiar, but morning amnesia has decided to take a hold and he lies there, trying to distinguish who it is.

I-is that...

...shadowedxlight?

He pushes up on one arm - for some reason he wasn't lying on his back like he usually does when he sleeps - and tries to remember what happened.]

Mmmm....wh-wha--?

[Avani wakes up slowly when Roxas starts to move, blinking bleary midnight-blue eyes at him.]

Roxas....?

[runawayxiiith.livejournal.com]

O-oh?

Good morning.

...I think.

[What time is it, again?]

[shadowedxlight.livejournal.com]

[According to her clock radio it's about 9:45 in the morning.]

Yeah it's morning...

[Blushes suddenly as she realizes what happened.]

Well..guess last night wasn't all that bad huh?

[Quiet giggle.]

[runawayxiiith.livejournal.com]

[Oh, now he remembers.]

D-did I really do all that?

[shadowedxlight.livejournal.com]

[She nods.]

Yeah...

[At least she's not as awkward as her mother was when this happened to her xD]

I can't say you're wrong about that, ma'am.

[runawayxiiith.livejournal.com]

I really... touched you. Like that.

[He sits there, quite still, trying to work out what exactly he learned last night.

...Actually, did any of that mean anything at all?

Oh, the woes of a Nobody who just performed the most emotional act of all.]

[shadowedxlight.livejournal.com]

[She just looks at her hands in her lap and nods.]

Mmhmm...

[runawayxiiith.livejournal.com]

[He can't think of much right now, only how happy she was... and how happy she is now.

This is only the opinion of a boy with just a little control of light and nothing more, but in his eyes, she's just... glowing.]

A-and you liked it, right? I didn't... didn't hurt you or anything, did I?

[shadowedxlight.livejournal.com]

[She looks up and smiles, giving a small nod.]

I did like it....and no you didn't hurt me, I would have said something if you did.

[She leans forward to give him a kiss on the cheek then sits back, still smiling.]

Crap, we broke him. D:

[runawayxiiith.livejournal.com]

[He freezes up when she kisses him, and then falls back down onto the bed, confused.]

oops?

[shadowedxlight.livejournal.com]

[Blink.]

Roxas....?

[She reaches out and shakes him a little bit.]

Don't worry, he's still alive. Just need staping together.

[runawayxiiith.livejournal.com]

...I just realised this is one of those things that has a lot of serious repercussions, isn't it.

[shadowedxlight.livejournal.com]

Yeah..

[She looks aside and sighs a little.]

[runawayxiiith.livejournal.com]

...

[Okay, now he just lost the will to move. No biggie, though.

Because for some reason he's smiling.]

[shadowedxlight.livejournal.com]

[She smiles and takes his hand.]

You okay?

<---This is the face he made last night... And now you will never rid the image from your head.

[runawayxiiith.livejournal.com]

I-I dunno. I just did something that could turn out to be a huge mistake, but I can't stop smiling.

[shadowedxlight.livejournal.com]

[She grabs her long t-shirt out from the side table drawer and ducks under the blanket long enough to pull it on over her head then sits up.]

I can't either.

[runawayxiiith.livejournal.com]

[He's kinda confused why she dives under the sheets to put a shirt on when he's seen much more than that already. So he just watches her.]

But I have to ask...

What's gonna happen now?

[shadowedxlight.livejournal.com]

[Just a habit when there's boys in the room.]

Well...I don't know...

[She falls silent as she thinks about it, fidgeting with the hem of the blanket.]

We could start dating if you want...maybe?

{She's all for it but she'll only go with it if he wants to.]

[runawayxiiith.livejournal.com]

Dating?

[The smile's not gone, of course; it's just shrunk as an unfamiliar word passes him by.]

[shadowedxlight.livejournal.com]

Well...you know how we're friends right? Dating...is a level above that.

[Best way she could possibly explain it.]

[runawayxiiith.livejournal.com]

[You mean he was right about this kind of thing? Take that, Axel! He attempts to lean closer to her... and lands on his face. Whoops. He pushes himself up again.]

Okay. What's dating like?

[shadowedxlight.livejournal.com]

{Okay she can't help but giggle when he lands on his face. Helping him sit up as she tries to explain.]

Well, it's like...we go do stuff together a lot. Like...hang out together and stuff.

[runawayxiiith.livejournal.com]

...Okay. That sounds alright.

And... what do we do right now?

[shadowedxlight.livejournal.com]

We could...just hang out and talk, I've got some training to do later though.

[runawayxiiith.livejournal.com]

Oh? Training?

[shadowedxlight.livejournal.com]

Oh I didn't tell you, right.

[She holds a hand out in front of her, this (http://pics.livejournal.com/shadowedxlight/pic/000011qb) appearing after a moment's concentration.]

[runawayxiiith.livejournal.com]

[...Oh, my God. Have a face that looks just like the icon, amusingly.]

...

[This is the point where any guy who hasn't been told he can't would say, "Holy crap, I so totally love you right now."

[shadowedxlight.livejournal.com]

[She dismisses her keyblade with a flick of her wrist then looks at him, trying not to giggle.]

What?

[runawayxiiith.livejournal.com]

I didn't - you ju- wait, wh-wh- o-oh my.

...

[He stops.]

...We should probably get dressed.

[He thinks he smells a bit funny, too.]

Aww Roxas *hugs him*

[shadowedxlight.livejournal.com]

Um..yeah...that sounds good...

[She rolls out of bed and goes to her closet, picking up and handing Rxas his clothes along the way. Once at her closet she starts digging through, coming up with a black t-shirt with a silver wolf printed on it, jeans and socks.]

Roxas hugs you back.

[runawayxiiith.livejournal.com]

[Hmm. On go the boxers, then the trousers. Right glove, left glove.

He slips his coat on. He doesn't know if he's ever actually just unzipped the thing or not, but he can get in and out of it without having to, anyway.]

[shadowedxlight.livejournal.com]

[And while he does that, Avani quickly pulls her jeans on, then takes off her night shirt and replaces it with her t-shirt. Then she moves to sit on the couch and put her socks on.]

[runawayxiiith.livejournal.com]

[He's just gonna stick on the bed here.]

...Hey, didn't that book say something on-

[He scratches his head.]

-I dunno, reaper-duction or something like that?

[shadowedxlight.livejournal.com]

Yeah...

[She pauses when he realizes what he means.]

Oh! If you're worried I'm gonna get pregnant from that, it doesn't happen every time, so...

[But if he insists she will make sure later on.]

[runawayxiiith.livejournal.com]

Oh. Okay.

[Wait a second.]

What happens when you get pregnant?

[shadowedxlight.livejournal.com]

[Oh Roxas, is she going to have to teacch you everything? Not that she minds.]

Um...it explains on page 203 of that book I showed you last night, that coul explain better than I could.

[And while he does that she's going to put her shoes on.]

[runawayxiiith.livejournal.com]

O-oh, right.

[So the book's sitting over there... He takes it, and opens it up.

...Oh. That's interesting.]

[shadowedxlight.livejournal.com]

[She just waits while Roxas is reading, fidgeting on the couch.]

[runawayxiiith.livejournal.com]

[He can see that you're fidgeting, Avani. It's a bit irritating at the edge of his vision. He closes the book and just watches intently.]

[shadowedxlight.livejournal.com]

[She notices the look and stops, rubbing the side of her head.]

Sorry.

[All she knew was that it was going to be a while before she ever ate chocolate of any kind again.]

[runawayxiiith.livejournal.com]

N-no, it's fine.

[He was just thinking how strangely... captivating it was.]

[shadowedxlight.livejournal.com]

[She stands up and goes to sit back beside him on the bed.]

You like just watching me don't you?

{She reaches up to comb her fingers through his hair as she says that.]

[runawayxiiith.livejournal.com]

Well... yeah.

[He's watched people since the day he was born.]
