I miss you.
I miss the way you practically skipped when you walked, and the way you always had a smile on your face. You were my sunshine; you were my reason for staying.
What was I to you? Was I just a friend, or was I something more? Or was I a toy, something to play with when you felt like it? Because to me, you were the reason that I stayed on the islands; I only stayed in the hopes that you loved me, too.
Where are you, Naminé? Where's my sunshine?
I miss you.
I miss your smile.
And I still shed a tear,
Every once in a while.
And even though it's different now,
You're still here somehow.
My heart won't let you go,
And I need you to know.
I miss you,
Sha la la la la,
I MISS YOU.
"Sora!"
The spiky-haired brunet looked over his shoulder to see his best friends-his cousins, Roxas and Ven, and his fraternal twin, Vanitas-running over to him. He sighed as he realized that one of three blonds still wasn't there. He'd kind of held onto the hope that she had come back overnight.
"Hey," he sighed, and Ven frowned as Vanitas groaned and Roxas slapped him upside the head.
"You need to forget about her! She's been gone for two years, man," Roxas whisper-yelled at him. No one could yell at Sora; that would only mean trouble.
"Yeah, and that's why the four of us have these," Vanitas said as he gave them each slips of paper. They unfolded them-and the shock kicked in. Sora's jaw went slack, Roxas shook his head in disbelief, and Ven gasped, "Is it…true?"
"Yep. We got into Twilight Town School for the Talented!" Vanitas crowed, throwing his hands up in the air in victory! The four boys whooped in happiness, and Roxas proposed that they go to the Paopu Fruit Café, to which the others adamantly agreed. As they made their way over there, the four boys decided what they were going to do at their new school.
"Well, we obviously have to do Combat," Sora stated after the waiter took their orders. The others nodded in agreement. "But other than that, I think I'll take Music, for...Lead Guitar and Vocals."
"Of course!" Roxas laughed. "Well, I'm going to take Music, too, but for Drums and Vocals."
"Music for Bass Guitar," Vanitas said.
"Music for Rhythm Guitar. Definitely," Ven said. The four laughed and joked until Riku came back. "All right, Sora's Latte, Vanitas' Peppermint Mocha, Roxas' Civet Coffee, and Ven's Strawberry-Banana Smoothie. Let me guess…Sora wants Wakka's famous Chocolate Chip cookies, Vanitas wants Kairi's Triple-Fudge Brownies, Roxas wants Selphie's Snickerdoodles, and Ven wants Tidus' Angel Wings?"
Ven laughed, "Do you even have to ask?" Riku smirked, and turned to Vanitas, saying, "Oh, and Kairi told me to tell you that she hopes you got into that Twilight Town school, because she did."
Vanitas smirked, "Well, she's not going to be disappointed." Riku laughed as he went to go tell his best friend-turned-stepsister the news.
Sora turned to his twin and raised his eyebrows. "You didn't tell Kairi?"
"I was about to when she left to go to work," was the reply. Sora nodded understandingly. Kairi, the best girl friend of her, was Vanitas' longtime girlfriend and one of the dessert artists at the Paopu Café. It was run differently than other cafés, and apparently it had a twin in Twilight Town, called The Sea-Salt Café.
Roxas, Ven, and Vanitas joked for a while after the food came, but Sora merely nibbled on his cookie, deep in thought. Where was Naminé? Why was everybody so determined to make him forget her, when they knew he couldn't. He had been too in love with her.
I know you're in a better place, yeah,
But I wish that I could see your face, oh.
I know you're where you need to be,
Even though it's not here with me.
Out of the fire
And into the fire again.
You make me want to forget,
And start all over.
Here I come,
Straight out of my mind
Or worse.
Another chance to get burned,
And start all over.
I'm gonna start all over.
"Naminé! Xion!"
Naminé looked over her shoulder to see Zexion, Axel, Demyx, and Larxene running towards her. She and Xion slowed to a stop as they waited. She giggled as Larxene tripped Demyx up, but stopped once she realized the reason why she giggled. Damn you, Sora, she cursed silently.
"So, Nami, guess where we're going to school in September," Demyx grinned as he easily stood up. She gasped as she realized why even Zexion looked pleased. "The six of us got in?"
"Yup! We're going to Twilight Town School for the Talented!" Larxene shouted, punching the smaller blonde on the shoulder-hard. Naminé rubbed her shoulder, wincing, but Larxene didn't notice as she gave Xion a noogie, which the ebony haired girl obviously hated. Axel noticed, too, and roughly pulled the older girl off. "Leave the sophomores alone," he chastised. Naminé snorted; of course he didn't fail to mention that she and Xion were the only sophmores, and that the other four were seniors.
"So, when do we leave?" Xion asked as she shifted her fencing bag to her other shoulder.
"We leave on August 30th, so don't worry. It's a month away," Zexion assured her, rummaging around his backpack for his notes. "Now, if you don't mind, I'm going to go help Mr. Vexen with his new experiment."
"Good luck! Hope it doesn't blow up this time!" Naminé said. He flashed her a smile, and practically sprinted down the castle halls.
"One of the few times he ever sprints, and it's so he can help Mr. Vexen with an experiment!" Axel tsked.
"Come on, it's the reason he got into that school. Of course he wants to be there on time," Xion replied, and Naminé nodded in agreement. Zexion got in because of his brains; that was his talent, just like she had art, Xion had fencing, Axel had soccer, Demyx had his sitar-playing skills, and Larxene had karate. It was inevitable that he'd get in because of his brains.
"Whatever," Larxene yawned. "Damn, this orphanage is boring." Axel, Demyx, and Xion murmured an agreement. Naminé, however, didn't say anything. She was thinking about how she missed Roxas, Ven, Vanitas, Kairi…and Sora.
Oh, she missed Sora the most. They had known each other for, like, ever. Over the years, she had developed a crush on him, but never told him. She was sure it had turned into love, but once her parents had died, and she was transferred to The World That Never Was Orphanage, what her parents had founded years before, that love had haunted her. She pushed it down, down, down, until eventually it became a crush-or so she thought. (Of course, Xion didn't believe that. She'd seen the multiple drawings of the spiky haired boy her new friend admired so.) They had talked about trying to get into that school before the accident, so to know that she had got in and he probably didn't…well, it hurt to say the least.
But this was a new chapter in her life. She had to forget all about him.
Naminé shook her head, making the memories fade away, and put on a smile, confusing her friends. Sora? Who was he?
It's so easy,
You disrupt me,
Can't complain.
It's so easy,
You disrupt me,
Can't complain.
It's so easy,
You disrupt me,
Can't complain.
It's so easy…
I'm gonna start all over.
START ALL OVER.
A/N: Wow. That was…longer than most chapters I do.
Hi, guys. I should probably be working on The Truth, but since I haven't gotten reviews since my, er, avoidable absence (I'M SORRY!), I figured I should put this out. It's been an idea I've had for a while, and it's going to follow a pattern. Basically, Sora and Naminé, the two main characters, will each have a song for a chapter. Both songs will be by the same artist; in this case, Miley Cyrus. Italics means Sora, Bolded means Naminé. Does this makes sense? Ok, so…R&R, please!

Oh, and I saw I made a mistake regarding Naminé, Xion, Sora, Roxas, Ven, Vanitas, and Kairi's age. They are all 15, meaning they are sophomores. Sorry bout that.
