Chapter 2: The Dreams Begin

Hours of unpacking later, Naminé dropped on her bed, out of energy. She, along with her two parents and siblings, had managed to unpack nearly everything they had. The only filled boxes downstairs held the winter clothing, Christmas decorations, and the fancy china.

It was 11:30 PM and past the time that the family would usually be asleep. Naminé felt bad for the rest of the family: their beds were bare, and had to move all the furniture into their bedrooms. Apparently Naminé had the only room with furniture included, so while all the rest were putting away their clothes, making their beds, and getting comfortable, Naminé was already finished and could get a good night's sleep.

She closed her eyes and turned onto her side. It was then that she started feeling something poke into her side. She grabbed the object of her discomfort, and realized it was the journal she'd found earlier. So she flipped open to a random page and read from the middle of the page.

It said, "We went to the beach, and Yuna refused to go in the water. Rikki isn't like that, thank goodness! She and I had a water fight. She looked so good in her new yellow bikini. She never took her hair out of her usual style but she did put in a yellow bandanna. She's so beautiful, yet she isn't conceited. It's amazing – no, she's amazing."

"Oh...kay..." Naminé muttered, and put the journal on the night table, next to her alarm clock. It wasn't long after that, still in her clothes and dirty from moving in, when Naminé fell asleep.

It was a sunny summer day. Naminé recognized the setting – the beach on one of Destiny Islands. It was the same one where she and her friends always hung out. She heard two teenagers giggling.

The scene zoomed in and she saw a beautiful brunette with short hair and different colored eyes relaxing on a beach towel, laying on her stomach and reading a magazine. She had on a dark blue one-piece swimsuit that had a white lining. Naminé peeked at the article. It was something about the heartthrobs in the movie premiering early next spring.

"Yunie!" she heard someone yell from behind her. She turned around and saw two girls rushing towards her. She put her hands in front of her face and hoped the girls didn't smash into her. But, surprisingly, they ran right through her, like she wasn't even there. When she realized that she was rather nonexistent in this weird dream of hers, she took time to study the other girls.

The one who had called to the brunette had long, dirty blonde hair, some of it in braids, held together with beads, and the rest just flowing, and a yellow bandanna in her hair. She had emerald-green eyes and a beautiful smile. She wore a yellow bikini, with ties keeping her top together and her bottoms up. (1) She was very beautiful and sexy, and although Naminé didn't believe in the expression "falling for your dream girl," she did start to think of this girl in a way she'd only thought of a few others. Naminé also felt like she had seen or at least imagined this girl somewhere before.

"Yu, are ya comin' inta da water? It's real refreshin'!" (2) Naminé turned to look at the girl who'd just spoke. She had brunette hair, like the one on the towel, but hers was long, with red streaks, and her hair flowed too, although wet from being in the water. Her eyes were a hazel, and she too, had a beautiful smile. Her bathing suit, a lavender two piece, looked heavy from the water. Her stomach was small and she had long legs just like the other two, but Naminé couldn't help but notice that her breasts were less developed than the others', which resulted in Naminé's conclusion she was younger than them. This girl looked around her age, actually – about 14. She too was very beautiful, but didn't seem the least bit familiar to her.

"Nah," the girl on the towel said, smirking. "I like it here. You two go, have your fun!" Her smirk grew. The other brunette blushed at that, but the blonde just giggled and pulled her towards the ocean. The towel girl laughed and said to herself, "Those two are the cutest!" before going back to her magazine. Naminé decided that was boring, so she followed the other two girls. They were splashing water at each other. Naminé watched as they went from that, to diving into the waves, to eventually laying down on the boardwalk.

The two girls were still giggling as they lay there, less than a centimeter away from each other. When they finally calmed down, the blonde spoke. "Vivi?"

"Yeah, Rikki?" the brunette replied

"What are you thinking about?"

"What about you?"

"I asked you first."

"On 3?"

"Okay. 1..."

"2..."

"3!" they said in unison. "I'm thinking about how nice it is, just laying here."(3) Naminé giggled when she heard them both say the same thing. She felt a little guilty, though, because she saw all of this and they didn't even know she was there. But then again, it was her dream.

Just as Naminé did, the two girls laughed at the other's response. The brunette moved closer until she had her arms around the blonde's stomach and her head resting on her chest. The blonde, in response, put her arms around the brunette's shoulders. The brunette looked up at her, and Naminé instantly recognized the look in the girls' eyes. It was the same as the one she always saw Kairi and Selphie give each other – a loving, longing look.

She wasn't sure who started moving first, but soon the girls were getting closer and closer, until their lips met in a soft, caring kiss.

Naminé woke up in a sweat. Her room had become abnormally cold, and she didn't know why.

Naminé had dreams of girls kissing and ... so on, but never before had there been any sort of backstory. It was usually just a bunch of lust.

"That was certainly ... different," she mumbled, and wiped some sweat off her forehead. She looked on her clock. It was 1:38AM.

"Ugh," she groaned, and lay back down. She got under the covers, pulled them up as far as they could go, and fell back asleep, into a normal dreamland where gumdrop people were dancing around in the Candy Cane Forest.

Author's Notes: First, I hope you enjoy. That dream scene was the first ever Yuri I have ever written. Now for the numbers. I find this easier than writing long A/N's in the middle of the story, most of which you probably don't care about.

(1): This is very similar to Rikku's outfit in FFX2, and exactly how she looks, I think... except her bandanna thing is usually blue.

(2): I'm sorry, I love accents like that and I couldn't help but make my OC have it.

(3) I'm sorry this scene was so cheesy, but please don't let that stop you from reviewing!

If there are any questions regarding this, feel free to ask. And again, please tell me what you think.
