Disclaimer: I do not own Kingdom Hearts or Apple. But I do own my first fanfic. This is the sequel to The Perfect Gift. Liked it? Then you're going to enjoy this one even more… At least, I hope you do! XD
Note: The format is still the same. Naminé's point of view is in normal font, and Roxas's is in italics. But now flashbacks will be in bold. Got it? And Naminé's inner voice is on this one too!
Note2: If you haven't read The Perfect Gift, that's ok, because this can be seen as a completely different story.
Note3: English isn't my mother tongue, so I may make some mistakes. Sorry…

Chapter 1: Thinking and Remembering
I was lying on my bed, thinking... Well, actually remembering… Wow, time really flies. It has been one year since the happiest and most beautiful day of my life…
"It's perfect." He said.
I just smiled and kissed him one more time. We stayed there, kissing each other until a black curtain fell over us. Only then we realized for how long we were there. We had a party to go to right? But we didn't care… We loved just being there, looking at each other, our blond hairs flying, taken over by the wind... We gazed each others eyes… We smiled. We knew that words weren't needed. Actually, they could never say how much we loved each other…
For how long we stayed there, well, I don't know. When I was with him, time didn't matter. Nothing mattered. Only he did… Along with his eyes…
We were there, looking at the stars, his arm around me. I felt so secure. Like nothing could ever hurt me again. He always made me feel like this. When he hugged me, when he made me laugh, when he smiled at me. His smile is the purest thing I've ever seen. He never smiled a fake smile. He's always true in everything he does and says. But my thoughts were interrupted by a beautiful voice.
"We should go…" he looked at me with those unusual big oceanic eyes… I love his eyes so much…
"I don't want to…" I stated.
He smiled. I knew he felt the same way.
"We can stay a little bit more… But after that we really need to go…"
He came closer. His hand ran through my hair… I closed my eyes, appreciating his soft touch, so warm, so wanted… His lips came closer. So remarkable, so sweet, so real… And the best part was… They were all mine.
"I can say that again… Were…" I sighed. It was raining outside. I felt really sad, and the weather wasn't helping at all.
"I feel so lonely… Where are you?... I miss you…"
I entered his house. I feel like I live here already. Since Roxas and I started going out, I pass every single free time I have with him. But today I wasn't here for fun. Roxas phoned me. By his voice I could tell something was terribly wrong. I wondered what happened… I called him.
"Nami? Is that you?" he replied.
I followed his voice and entered his room. His room was such a mess. It was worse than mine! It had dirty clothes all over it. His books were all scattered. One on his bed, one on the floor, others behind his clothes. Same with his CDs, his notebooks, his computer, his school material, and so on, and so on… I looked at the wall. The drawing that I gave him was there, like a painting illuminating his room. Under it he wrote our names in a heart, saying "everlasting love".
He was sitting on his bed, listening to his iPod. But I could see something was wrong. His eyes had a little shade of green. That meant he was sad or worried.
"What's wrong? You sounded concerned on the phone…" I asked.
"Nami…"
He had been crying. I know him too well. His voice trembled when he said my name. He was pale… He couldn't speak… He tried, but all he got was a barely audible word.
"What's wrong?" I asked again. I was starting to feel really anxious. Roxas wasn't the type of person that cried for small things. Something really bad had happened.
Roxas took an eternity to even move again. He then stood up, and walked to me. His lips touched mine on a soft kiss. I felt a salty tear that rolled through his face and died in our lips. He broke apart and moved a few inches back. He gazed my eyes, my questioning, apprehensive eyes. Then, slowly, he said in a voice that didn't feel so beautiful as before.
"I'm moving."
I was starting to feel sadder than before. I wanted to cry… And eventually I did.
Warm tears rolled through my pale face, passed through my cheeks, and died on my bed. I remember well what he said. "I'll never forget you… I'll call you everyday from Destiny Islands… Don't cry Nami… Please don't. I promised I'll never make you cry…"
Well, I am crying now. But I cried even more that day. We were together for four months. Everyone here at Twilight Town knew that we were a couple. And when someone passed through us they always said:
"Aren't they the cutest thing?..."
"Awww… Naminé's so lucky! Roxas is soooo hot!"
"I wish I had a love like theirs…"
I started to sob… It was so painful to think about him… My heart is so broken… Falling apart…
"Naminé, stop! This is going too far… Cheer up!"
How can I? He said he'd never forget me… He'd always call me… Every single day. And he did. He called me every day and said how much he missed me, how much he loved me, how much he wanted to be with me... How what he wanted the most was to kiss me again… And now, look, here I am, for almost one month without hearing from him, talking to him, seeing him, loving him… Without his eyes…
"Naminé…"
Leave me alone please… I need to cry tonight…
------------
I opened my sleepy eyes, blinking at the sunlight. I fell asleep while I was crying. I looked around at my room… I really like my house. It is very pretty, and roomy. I share my bedroom with my twin sister, but it is large enough for both of us. Actually, if any of us wanted to have our own bedrooms, we could, because we have two free rooms at our place. But my sister and I never want to be far from each other. So we decided to stay in the same bedroom. And the best part is… it has two bathrooms! One for me and one for her.
My sister was still sleeping, her red hair appearing through the sheets. I stoop up and awoke her.
"Kai… Wake up. We're going to the mall today remember?"
At the word "mall", Kai opened her eyes as if obeying at a voice control and looking like a robot.
"Mall?" she looked confused. Then she smiled. "Of course, the mall! What are we waiting for?"
I laughed. I knew that "mall" was the main word of Kai's dictionary. Although she is my twin sister, we don't really have anything in common. She's a red-head, I'm blonde. She's hyper-active, I'm very calm. She's always happy and I… well, actually, I was like that. But since Roxas left… Life isn't as fun.
Kai must have seen I was going back to my "Roxas-moved-and-I-don't-hear-anything-from-him-for-a-month-now" mood, so she tried to cheer me up.
"C'mon, the mall's waiting! Let's go change."
"Ok." I nodded.
I entered my bathroom and Kai entered hers. We didn't close the doors. Instead, we popped our heads through them.
"Ok, on my count." Kai started counting and at "Go!" I said:
"Gimme a K!"
"Gimme an N!"
"Gimme an A!"
"Gimme another A!"
"Gimme an I!"
"Gimme an M…"
And then we shouted together:
"What do we have? Nothing!"
We laughed. I was starting to feel better now. We always do this little joke when we wake up together. To start the day with the right foot!
Kai was starting to close her door. But before she had a chance to, I had to say something.
"Kai…"
"Yes?"
"You're the best sister I could ever have…"
Kai smiled.
"I can say the same about you…"
We smiled together, our eyes shining. But inside, I was still thinking about some other's blue eyes…

So, what did you think of the first chap? It's a little angsty at some parts, but I wanted to give the idea that Naminé can't live without Roxas… Just one more word… REVIEW!
