A/N: Wow I guess doing weekly updates is off my list. It’s hard! Junior year really is the hardest! I’m doing my best and thanks for still sticking around to read this next chapter! Enjoy poppets and puppets!

x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x

I stood behind the café counter with a rag in a hand. I was supposedly cleaning…but I was actually contemplating. You know how there’s a point in your life where you just replay things over and over again in your head trying to figure something out, only to fail. That’s what I had spent my day doing. Well if I was to be truthful, I’d have to say week.

But of course over that time, no matter how much it played in my head, I couldn’t figure out what exactly happened. It was…definitely unexpected. No relationship is perfect, but I never expected Roxas and me to be the fighting sort of type. So how and why we got into a fight that day…boggles me.

x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x

The previous week…

“You’ve got to be kidding me.” Roxas said on the other line.

I shook my head regardless if he could see or not. “Nope.”

“Is that…”

“Even possible?” I finished for him. “Yes, it is. I’m living proof of that.” I held back a chuckle.

“I’m going to change that.” He stated.

“No you’re not. Roxas it’s not that big of a deal!” I exclaimed into the phone.

I could hear him let out a sigh. “You’re just saying that because you refuse to wake up early.”

My eyebrow twitched. “Your point?” I asked not amused.

He laughed. “Don’t worry, I’ll take care of it.” And before I got another word in, he hung up.

I sighed at his antics but smiled at them nonetheless. I know he’d go to great lengths to do things for me, but really he didn’t need to do anything this time around. I wonder why it was so hard for him to believe I’ve never seen a sunrise before. I mean not wanting to get up that early was perfectly reasonable. Of course he was the type to be unreasonable.

I flipped through the pages I was working on. Of course seeing a sunrise with him would be great quality time together and an opportune moment for picture taking. I had to fix up my photo portfolio after all. I closed the book.

Ever since the wedding I hadn’t been able to focus on photography. I was thinking of doing some shoots for Kairi’s upcoming show but I haven’t had the chance to ask her about that. She’s been so busy and the poor girl seemed exhausted. I hope Sora was doing well on his end as her husband. So for now, pictures of the sun rising would be good.

I looked around for my camera throughout the apartment but couldn’t find it. It was when I was about to give up that I remembered how Kairi had hid it from me on her wedding day. Which means she was the last person to have it. Oh if something happened to it, I swear she’d be dead.

I grabbed my cell and got her on speed dial. “Oh, Naminé I was just about to call you.” Said Sora’s voice on the other line…on Kairi’s phone.

“Sora? Where’s Kairi?” I asked, although I could’ve asked him about my camera.

I heard him let out a sigh. “I’m outside the waiting room. Doctor’s are running some tests. Kairi’s in the hospital.” I almost dropped the phone.

“D-Did I hear that right?” I started to become frazzled wondering what the reason was. Was she hurt, in an accident, the possibilities seemed endless.

“She fainted. They’re trying to find the reason right now. I was about to call you and-“

“I’m coming over right now.” I hung up before he could say anything about it and grabbed my purse and anything else in sight and dashed out of the door.

I reached the hospital at probably record timing and found Sora waiting. “How is she?” I asked as soon as I was in hearing distance.

Sora got up. “She just woke up. I was going to go in soon to see how she’s doing but I wanted to wait for you a bit.”

I shook my head. “You go! You go in there right this minute and find out what’s wrong.”

Sora chuckled a bit and went inside the room. I sat there waiting. I wanted to know immediately yes, but if I were to join it’d interrupt a moment between the two. I stood close to the door to see if I could hear anything.

Nothing. Silence. Patients walking by in the hallway. More silence. And then a shriek. At that point I really couldn’t refrain myself from bursting into the door. “What happened? Is Kairi ok!?”

The doctor stood there blankly and let out a smile. “Ahem, well I guess I’ll just leave you all alone now.”

I stood there seeing Kairi and Sora grinning like idiots. He was rubbing off on her. “…anyone want to fill me in?” I asked. “Kairi are you ok, what happened?”

Kairi shook her head. “I’m sorry for worrying you. Just a fainting spell.” She said.

I placed my hands on my hips. “Please.” I rolled my eyes. “What on earth did you do?”

Kairi let out a sigh. “Doctor says it’s due to over exhaustion. Probably because of that new line I’m designing. Must’ve overworked myself.” She stated calmly which was creeping me out.

“Then you should stop working right away!” I demanded.

Now it was her turn to roll her eyes. “Because yes, that’s how life works. Let’s stop doing our jobs because it makes us tired.”

Sora laughed at our exchange. “You both have a point. Kairi does need to work.” He turned towards his wife. “But you definitely can’t pull something like this again. If you exhaust yourself, that won’t be good for our son.”

Kairi looked at him. “Our son? No way, we are having a girl. And she’s going to be a fashionista just like her mother.”

Sora looked back at her. “There’s enough of that from you. We need someone to play sports with me.”

Watching them bicker about a girl or a boy back and forth was like watching a tennis match. Might I add that tennis bored me to death? “Hello, I’m still here!”

They stopped their exchanges and looked at me and smiled. “Sorry.” Kairi said. “The doctors also said I shouldn’t overwork myself because it’d be straining to not only me, but the baby.”

I nodded. “Makes sense.”

“Naminé, did you hear me?” Kairi asked.

“Yes, you don’t want to strain yourself or the baby…” It’s funny how reality sunk in after awhile of the initial hit. “Oh my…Kairi you’re pregnant!”

Kairi laughed. “Yeah…can you believe it? Sora’s going to be a father!”

Sora looked at Kairi. “Hey, what do you mean by that?”

Kairi laughed. “I’m carrying the baby. Those motherly instincts are natural. You however won’t get the full blown effect until our baby girl comes.”

Sora rolled his eyes. “Way to instill confidence in me. I’m sure I’ll be a great father once our son is born.”

Oh boy, here they go again. I slipped out of the room unnoticed. I think it’d be best to let them have that little moment, if you could call it one, to themselves. When I closed the door I looked up to see Olette.

“Is Kairi ok? Can we go in to see her now?” She asked frantically like I had before.

I smiled. “She’s fine. Fainted from exhaustion.”

Olette look horrified. “Oh and she is the one who insisted on being my wedding planner before. Good thing she didn’t.”

I nodded. “Yes. It’d be problematic if her child had problems because of you.”

Olette nodded. “Yeah wouldn’t want that on the poor kid…wait…” I love how Olette and I could be so alike. “You mean…?” I nodded. She let out a squeal. “Oh that’s great! Our very own Kairi!”

I walked with her down the hall so we wouldn’t create such a commotion in front of their room.

“I was so worried when I got your message, Naminé.” Olette started. “But after hearing that our friend is pregnant, I definitely agree today is a day full of good news. It’s too bad Selphie couldn’t get away to hear this news for herself.”

I nodded. “I’m sure she’ll declare a cake emergency and make us give up every single detail. But what other good news have you gotten?” We stopped in front of a coffee dispenser.

Olette grabbed a cup and smiled. “I got a job.”

“Really? But Roxas didn’t have a clue…” I dismissed it though because I was beaming with happiness. “Ah who cares? That’s great! See that means the wedding can go on! Hayner never found out right?”

Olette shook her head but the brightness on her face seemed to fall a bit. “No he never found out. He might soon though…I don’t think I’m going to take the job.”

I looked at her incredulously. “You’re kidding right? Why not? You need a job don’t you? So why…”

“That’s just the thing. I heard that you tried to get a job offer for me from Roxas. Thank you for that, but I wasn’t hired by him. Didn’t even get an interview.”

“Then who-“ I was interrupted as I saw Olette look past me as I was talking. I turned around to see a figure with her back turned to us. However it was easy to recognize who it was by the ocean blue shade of hair color.

She turned around and looked just as surprised to see us. “Oh, good afternoon.” It felt more directed to Olette than me. Of course Olette was her client. “Goodness I hope you’re just here visiting and not for yourself. Wouldn’t want you to be injured on the first day of work now would we?”

I looked over at Olette who smiled at Aqua. Her eyes of course were telling me she’d explain later. I had a feeling the next cake emergency would be a long one.

She shook her head. “That’s right. I’m here for a friend. And you?” She asked Aqua.

Aqua looked at me and then back to Olette. “Just a checkup. Well I guess I should be going. I’ll call you for some of the things we’ve been discussing for the wedding.” Olette nodded and it looked like Aqua was in a rush. It was finally after Olette gave her some more information that I wish Aqua had left earlier. Coming up behind her was her husband. Roxas’s brother. My hated ex. Whatever you labeled him, it was Ven no matter what.

“All right everything taken care of. Ready to go-“ He noticed the two of us standing near Aqua. “Oh…hello.” A nervous looking couple weren’t they?

“I’m going to go check up on Kairi and Sora.” I told Olette and walked off. After all the tension in the air was more than likely caused by me.

I sat down in one of the waiting rooms since I wasn’t actually going to go to Kairi like I had told Olette. I’m sure ten minutes was not enough for her and Sora to talk things out over the news they received. Then of course there was Olette who had good news herself but she was busy talking with her new employer. Whether it was Aqua or Ven I didn’t know. But I think at this point I didn’t care. I was just glad Olette was going to be ok.

I took out my phone to look like I was preoccupied but in reality I just didn’t want people coming up to me asking if I was waiting for someone or asking if I needed assistance. Of course I was delighted to see I had a text from Roxas. I noticed it wasn’t exactly a couple of minutes ago and I guess I never heard or felt my phone go off. I opened it to read the message.

“Meet me outside of the hospital.”

Should I be glad or creeped out that he was waiting outside the hospital? I smiled and sent a quick text to Olette saying something came up. I can’t believe I had become one of those who would make up tiny little lies for their boyfriends.

But of course after walking out and seeing him, I didn’t regret it too much I must say. I came up to him and he held his arms out embracing me as I found my way into them. “How’d you know?”

“I have my ways.” He said slyly. He then chuckled totally blowing his cover. “That and your friend Selphie sure was bent on knowing exactly what was going on. I’m guessing you failed to tell her so she sent me.”

I chuckled nervously on the fact that he was right. Seems like Olette and I did fail to send a quick text saying our friend was ok. But of course that text wasn’t going to come any sooner considering she got my boyfriend to fetch the news personally.

“So, is everything ok?” He asked. I nodded and he smiled. “Good. Then shall we be going?” He held my hand and started to pull me over to parking lot.

“Wh-where are we going?” He looked at me and smiled a ‘you’ll see’ kind of smile. Might I add, I hated and loved that smile? I mean sure I didn’t need to stick around but I’d like to know what was going on. Of course with Roxas that seemed pretty much impossible.

We got into his car and we drove. Any question I asked pertaining to this secret location went unanswered and it looked like it would remain that way until we reached our destination.

But luckily it wasn’t too much of a drive away. I looked out the window to see the serene view of the beach. The secluded one he had taken to me before. I stepped out of the car once he was parked. I inhaled the salt-scented air. “So what brings us here?” I asked.

He stepped out as well. “We are spending time here until early morning.” He said it so casually that he must’ve found it amusing when I had that dumbfounded look on my face. I didn’t need to ask for him to answer my next question. “I’ll make sure you see that sunrise one way or another. If it involves making you stay up all night, then so be it.”

For a boyfriend I so loved, he sure was rotten making me go through this when he knew how dear sleep was to me.

We headed towards the sand with a blanket in hand. There’s something about feeling the sand beneath your feet that calms you down. I enjoyed it until we found a spot that wasn’t too close to the waters. He set the blanket down and we sat down on it.

“The whole night huh?” I asked.

“That’s the plan.” He said lying down.

“But it could get boring you know. Just sitting here the whole time.” I looked over at him.

“Well we should pass the time then, shouldn’t we?” He smiled and sat back up. “So any suggestions?”

I laughed at how unprepared he was. “Hmm…I might.” I said remembering what was in my bag. “I’ll be right back.” I headed towards the car and rummaged through the bag.

“Ah found it!” I held up my camera in triumph. I brought it down to eye level to examine it to make sure things were ok with it. It was fine, but it might’ve totally been destroyed if I didn’t realize I almost dropped it.

It was my camera alright. But not the one I was so used to using. It was the camera that I had gotten from Ventus. I remembered how I went around looking for it after that dinner night with Roxas. I guess I didn’t hide it and ended up grabbing it as I left the house. Since before the whole Kairi thing, I was looking for the other. I guess my thoughts just cris-crossed with one another.

I was just staring at it. Not moving, thinking, nothing. Just staring.

“Hey something wrong?” I snapped out of another daze thanks to Roxas. I looked up to see him coming back towards the car. I quickly threw the camera back into the bag and shut the door.

“Nothing!” I ran up to him. He noticed I came to him empty handed. “I guess I didn’t have what I was looking for. Sorry didn’t mean to get your hopes up.” I teased.

He shook his head. “We’ll be fine.” He said. We walked back to the blanket and I couldn’t help but hate myself for glancing back over his shoulder. It’s like I was treating the camera as a person who was stalking me. It really did seem that way though.

But despite that, things were fine. We passed hours talking. Playing in the water and messing with each other in the sand. It was something I needed to relieve the stress.

We sat back down and it was much darker out then it had been when we first got there. “How much longer I asked?” I loved how devoted he was to getting me to see a simple sunset, but in all honesty I was about to collapse over.

He looked at his watch then at me. He didn’t tell me the time but had a playful smile on him. “What tired already?” He leaned back on his arms.

I rested my head on his knees. “You have no idea. Why does it seem like you have so much energy?” I asked looking up at him hoping to stay awake with that method.

He laughed and grinned. “How can anyone be asleep with you around?”

I blushed. I hope he was being cheesy and not teasing me. “Should we go take a nap in the car?” He suggested. I nodded liking that idea. “Don’t worry I’ll set an alarm to wake you up in time.” I rolled my eyes. Oh joy.

We walked into the car and sat in the backseat. He sat up and I rested my head again on his thighs. I must say it was pleasant falling asleep with him being the last person I saw…

x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x

I woke up startled and looked around. I saw Roxas fast asleep. I felt cramped. Then I remembered we were taking a ‘nap’ in his car. I found the source of the noise that woke me up. It was his cell phone with an alarm set. It read 4 o’clock AM.

It finally shut off. Thank goodness. I rested back down on Roxas. It was his turn to wake up startled. So the guy doesn’t open his eyes to an annoying alarm but to someone who, carefully mind you, rested on him.

“What did I miss?” He looked around like I had. I chuckled a bit. “Nothing. Sleep ok?” I teased noting his hair looking messier than usual.

He chuckled. “Eh, I don’t know. My back kind of hurts.” He moved around to try and sit in a better position. I remained where I was, too tired to move. He reached his hand behind his back. I closed my eyes still hearing him moving around to get comfortable.

“Don’t tell me this is the reason?” I looked up to see he had my bag in his hand.

“What?” I said. “You didn’t see my bag there when you sat down?” I asked.

“I did. But what could you possibly be carrying that makes it so hard and lumpy?” He looked through it as I shrugged my shoulders.

“Just basic stuff. Wallet, sunglasses and my camera…” I stopped and shot back up. “Roxas give that back!” I demanded.

He looked at me. “Why what’s wrong?” He laughed. “What are you hiding?” He asked in a joking manner.

And there it was. He pulled out my camera. “So this is what’s been killing my back?” He laughed and looked at it. “You should’ve brought it out earlier. We could’ve taken pictures.”

I didn’t say anything and just nodded. It’s not like he knew where I got it.

He looked through the lens as if to take a picture of me. He smiled and then looked at it. I think this was where things started to go downhill a bit.

“This is an old camera.” It was more of a statement then a question. “I’ll get you a new one.” He offered.

I shook my head. “No, it’s fine. You don’t need to.”

His expression didn’t change and it did make me feel a bit worried. “I want to. Then get rid of this one.”

“No!” I automatically replied. He looked shocked by my reaction. He wasn’t the only one. “That is…that camera, it’s probably a family heirloom or something. I shouldn’t throw it out just in case.” Why did I want to keep that thing? I was complaining about it enough when I saw it before.

“Don’t lie to me Naminé.” I don’t think I ever saw him act like this. “Tell me. Who gave you this?” He held it up shaking it a bit and staring right at me. “Tell me who gave you this?”

I didn’t look at him. “I, I don’t know.”

“Naminé!”

“Ventus, ok!? Ventus!” I shouted back. “Your brother gave it to me while we were dating and I’m sorry I have it but are you really going to get jealous over it?” I wanted to know why he was acting like this.

“You think I’m jealous?” He asked incredulously.

“Well why else are you acting like this!?” I shot back.

“I’m not acting like anything!”

“Roxas don’t lie to me!”

He looked away from me. “I’m not lying.”

It was quiet. I felt disheartened. I had no idea what was going on or what we were even fighting about. “Roxas…”

He shoved the camera back into the bag. “It looks like it’s going to rain. I don’t think we can see the sunset.” He got out and went into the driver’s seat.

He adjusted his seat and mirrors and started the car. He turned around. “Are you coming up here?”

I looked at my bag with the camera in it just tossed aside on the seat. “…No.” I muttered.

From the corner of my eye I could see he was going to say something but decided against it. He started to drive off.

x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x

I hung my head down at the cashier. No matter how many times I ran that through my head I still couldn’t get any other answer but jealousy. But why?

Why would he be jealous of Ven? Did he think I would dump him and run off to his brother? No, his married brother? I’m not a home wrecker! But Roxas wouldn’t make that kind of conclusion. He’s certainly no me. So I really don’t know what was going on unless he talked to me.

Of course that hadn’t happened this whole week. My head sunk lower. “What am I going to do?”

“About what?” I hadn’t hurt the bell over the door chime since I must’ve been too deep in thought. I looked up ready to slap a smile on my face to greet the customer.

I ended up nearly slipping from surprise. Roxas just walked up to the cashier and looked me right in the eye. It was startling without a doubt. But I was curious as to just exactly what he was doing here. Aren’t guys usually too stubborn to make the first move in apologizing?

“I…I’d like to order a coffee.” He dropped his head down. “No, what I’m trying to say is…” Oh it really was too funny to see him fumble around with his words. I mean I knew the guy couldn’t be absolutely perfect.

I rested my hands on the palm of my hands and smiled at him. “Hold on just a minute.” I quickly whipped up two coffees and came back to him. “Let’s talk over coffee?” He smiled and nodded.

We sat down and didn’t really say anything. He spoke first. “Last week…I…shouldn’t have reacted the way I did.”

Before it seemed so cute but I didn’t find it that way anymore. He was gripping his cup tightly and I noticed circles were starting to form under his eyes. I wondered if it was just over that fight that caused him like this.

I reached out and grabbed his hand. “I’m sorry. I’ll get rid of the camera if it means that much to you. I didn’t mean to-“

Roxas shook his head. “No, it’s fine. I want you to keep it. It’s fine. I’m sorry. I really am. I…don’t know why I reacted that way.” He took my hand and held it tightly. “I don’t want to fight with you Naminé.”

I gave his hand a squeeze. “Roxas…don’t worry. It’s fine. Really…besides, I can’t stay mad at you.” I smiled.

He let out a chuckle. “You sure about that?”

I nodded. “Maybe…” I smiled and we both laughed. I thought that were things would be good again.

I thought. I heard the bell this time and got up to greet the customer. Nothing came out of my mouth.

Roxas turned around to see what I was staring at. He got and in front of me. “What do you want?” He asked.

Xion came towards the two of us totally unfazed by Roxas being over-protective. “Well, I didn’t expect you here, but I guess it saves me the trouble.”

“Are you talking to me or Naminé?” I took a step up but Roxas put his arm out a bit to stop me.

Xion raised her eyebrows. “Isn’t it obvious? I came here to ask Naminé where you were since you seem to be avoiding me. I need to talk to you Roxas.”

He crossed his arms. “Alright. Talk.”

Xion let out a small laugh. “I’m sorry. Let me rephrase. I need to talk to you Roxas, alone.” Xion turned around. “I’ll be at my office until seven tonight. If you don’t come I can’t assure I won’t be here again.” She left the café just as fast as she came.

I looked down to see Roxas’s hands clenched. It seemed lately, he had a lot to deal with. Me not talking to him about our fight…only made things worse. I came up to him and hugged him from behind. “It seems important. You should go.” He turned around and looked at me as if I had turned crazy.

I feigned a smile. “Go. I’ll be fine.”

Roxas let out a sigh. “She’ll be there until seven huh? I think we have time for another cup of coffee.” He smiled and sat back down. I went to go grab the coffee.

x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x

Roxas opened the doors to the office. Inside Xion was sitting at her desk typing away. She didn’t look up as he entered.

“I thought you weren’t going to show up.” She looked up at him as walked to her desk.

He crossed his arms. “Looks like we thought the same thing.” He let out a sigh. “Let’s just cut to the chase. What do you want Xion.”

Xion played with a pen in her hand. “Do you remember when your mother cancelled my scholarships in college and I had to work my ass off to pay for my education? And do you remember when you found out, how furious you were and said you would make it up to me?”

Roxas bit his lip and nodded. “Are you going somewhere with this?”

Xion smiled. “I simply wanted to know if by saying you owe me if that involved breaking up with me.” Roxas was about to say something but Xion held up her hand. “Save it. I know. It was for my own good, blah, blah, blah. I understand that, but does Naminé?”

Roxas looked taken aback at the direction she was moving the conversation in. “What are you getting at.” He seemed impatient.

“You owe me Roxas. You know it. It would be easy to say that all your guilt and debt with me would go away if you would just marry me. Me, your fiancé. But life isn’t that easy, and that’s not how I want to marry you. But no matter what you say we will get married. Unless…I cancel it out of my own volition.”

Roxas looked up, eye to eye, at Xion for the first time since he entered the office. “What did you say…?”

“It’s not fair for me to marry a man with so many lies. It’s not fair for me to let a man go to someone he’s lying to. So the only way to solve that is if that man tells the truth. So I’m offering you this once in a lifetime opportunity. If you don’t go through with it, you can bet we will get married at the next possible date. But if you agree, it can buy you some time. But not much.”

Roxas looked at Xion trying to figure her out. “Let’s hear it.”

“I will cancel the wedding, our wedding. I’ll cancel it all.” Xion said.

Roxas didn’t look like he believed her but she continued on. “I’ll cancel that, the engagement, and I’ll personally make sure our company deal will go through successfully despite the lack of marriage.”

“You would really do all of that? Just like that? What are you conditions?” He still seemed cautious of all of her words.

Xion smiled. “Conditions? No, Roxas not conditions. Just one condition. You fulfill it and if everything plays in your favor I will null everything.”

“Go on…”

“You have until the end of this year to tell Naminé everything. Tell her the truth of how all this time it was you she dated. You who hurt her, you who came back and entered her life through lies.”

Roxas looked at her not believing her proposition. “What did…what did you say?”

“Save the questions until the end now.” She playfully said. “Tell her everything and if she can forgive you our relationship, engagement, and marriage will be called off and gone forever. I promise you that. Now…can you promise me that you’ll tell her nothing but the truth?”

Roxas stared at the floor. “That’s ridiculous. You expect me to agree to your idea? Our past is ours. It has nothing to do with you nor do you have a right to bring it up again!” His voice rose higher and higher.

Xion looked unfazed by his outburst. “It’s like I said. I can’t marry a man who carries lies with him. If you don’t tell Naminé, I’ll tell her everything, Roxas. Everything.”

“You little-“

“How would you rather have it Roxas? She’s going to find out either way. She should hear it from someone she loves not someone she now sees as her enemy. Why do you look so scared? You have nothing to lose right? If Naminé loves you like truly says she does then this is a bet you can’t turn down. You’ll win and the engagement will be null. You two could finally be alone. Isn’t that what you want?”

Roxas’s anger began to subside. “More…more than anything.”

“Then will you promise me? Promise you’ll go through with our little bet?”

“I…I promise.”

A smile slowly emerged from Xion’s face. “I knew you’d see it my way.”

Roxas turned around. “Anything else?” He said through gritted teeth.

“Nope.”

Roxas left the office slamming the door. Xion let out a sigh when he left the room. Luxord entered the room as soon as Roxas left. “Miss?”

She looked up and gave him a meek smile. “Everything’s arranged Luxord?”

“Yes, everything is set up for you. And we’re still keeping an eye on her.” He added in.

Xion closed her eyes and rubbed her temples. “Well she won’t be running the show anymore. It’s time to cut the strings Luxord. Everything is now into play. All we need is-“

“Luck?” He chuckled.

Xion smiled in amusement. “Perhaps. Only time will tell. Of course the end of the year can come by in a flash. I’m interested to see how the situation develops.”

“How did you find out?”

“I…I’ll marry her.”

“Has he made any progress?”

“I think I may have an idea, Naminé.”

“If I apologized, would you forgive me?”

A/N: So I’m exhausted guys! Sorry that I don’t have time or energy to write chapter 17 analysis up. It’ll be by Monday night though! So drop off a review and let me hear your thoughts on why you think Roxas acted ‘jealous.’ Then you can find out if you were right or not when I get the analysis up. Please and thank you!
