Stories I write to cope with my sadness.

A Peaceful Twilight

Ship: RokuNami
I have invested myself in this cute little underrated hetero ship.

Tick tock goes the clock as two youngsters sat quietly on the edge of the famous clock tower that rests in Twilight Town, both enjoying each other's presence in silence whilst staring at the setting sun. Ice creams melting from being untouched after one bite, and fingers intertwined just loving the warmness of each other's hand this was the life they wished, hoped, and they were finally living it.

"Can we always be like this?" questioned the orange head, which came out as a whisper, his hands tightening the grip on the other's hand. Albeit he wasn't looking the blondie, he was fully aware it brought a frown to her face.

Turning her head to the side, Namine forced a smile in an attempt to comfort the other. "Maybe, maybe not, we may not have a grasp on our destinies, but we can make it happen," came Namine's response before acknowledging what's left of her melting ignored ice cream.

Roxas quickly shifted his head to look at Namine before breaking into laughter and commenting, 'cheesy'. Namine puffed his cheeks and gently nudged the other to show she was displeased to which Roxas laughed at, "I would trade anything for a day with you." 

"Who's being cheesy now?" giggled Namine as she rested his head at Roxas' shoulder, their tangled hands tightening around each other and just enjoying the coldness of the wind as they feel it through their skin. 

Roxas couldn't do anything but roll his eyes at the comment as an unconscious smile found its way up to his face. Every little word that came from Namine's mouth just never fails to make his flutter.

The blondie brought up her lick-cleaned popsicle stick, with her lips curving into an irresistible smile, and a text embedded on the said stick that stated 'WINNER.' "I got lucky."

After pondering over it for quite some time, Roxas finally spoke up, "Of course, you're lucky to have me--and the others, of course!" avoiding eye contact with the lady, he searched for ways to occupy himself. To which ended up with him dropping his ice cream and scratching the back of his nape.

Namine quickly noticed the blush, to which she immediately mirrored after getting flustered over Roxas' words. "I was talking about the stick, but...," she trailed off, wanting to eat her words back as she now finds herself in an awkward position.

Oof. "O-Oh...? Oh, I'm just...," stumbling on his own words, Roxas immediately picked himself up, hesitantly letting go of Namine's hand, as the blush on his face only grew redder with time passing. 'This didn't happen when I searched up how to flirt on Moogle!!!' he thought, internally screaming inside as he did. As he was about to run away, Namine grabbed his wrist, stopping him from yeeting away.

"Well, I truly am lucky to have you, Roxas...--"

"Augh, I wanna barf!"
"Shut it, Vanitas! Why are you even here?"
"I wanna see him get dumped."
"As if he will!"
"Shh, be quiet, you two!"

The two dumbfounded stayed still, faces red as it can be Namine retracted her hand and covered her face whilst Roxas stomped his way to the source of voices. "I know you're there! Vanitas, Ven, and Sora come out!"

"Geez, do you need to call our names out?" spoke Ventus scratching his head as he stepped out of their hiding spot, which Vanitas, who rolled his eyes and hit Ven, and Sora, who was scratching his cheek, soon followed.

 "I told you two to keep it down!" puffing his cheeks, Sora growled at the two, as he endlessly bickered about the two fighting and messing up their plan of eavesdropping.

 "Don't act like you're innocent, you started this, Pussy!" retorted Vanitas as he aggressively pointed a finger on the brunet in annoyance, which earned him a smack on the head by Ventus.

 "You can't call Sora like that, Vanitas!"

The three started bickering non-stop with Sora on the verge of crying and the two trying to kill each other. It gave Roxas a 'major headache' as Axel like to call, but it soon disappeared when Namine grabbed him by the arm and pulled him down, delivering a small peck on the cheeks before whispering something onto his ear.

"I love you."

She then sprinted away, leaving a blushing mess Roxas to handle the three.
