Deep blue eyes peered out the window pane, blond bangs hanging loosely in the girls face. She rested a pale hand on the window sill, smiling. It was mid morning, rain clouds gathering in the distance, threatening showers. She wore a simple white dress, sketch pad close by. The room was white, and the furniture was a mere light pastel purple, that almost blending completely in with the white. It was a mix of beauty, simplicity, and eeriness. Her eyes were fixed on the forest that lead to the hole in the wall. She shook her head as rain pelted the ground. Nothing interesting really happened on rainy days.

Usually, Roxas wouldn't even go outside when it rained, but he wanted to. He got all his clothes on and swung his jacket around to place it on his back. He ran out the door, trying as hard as he could to get to the mansion before his best friend caught up and saw him. He just felt like being left alone today, and he was hoping to find that a bit past the forest.
In the Market place, he started fot the hole in the wall, it was just large enough to fit through. He jumped inside the forest, and that's when it started raining. He put his hood over his head as he started for the back. As he edged near the back, a mansion started to tower over him. He looked up at it, and for a brief second, thought he saw a girl, but decided it was just the curtains.
"There must be a draft inside..." He assured himself. He put the thought behind him as he got to the plain infront of the mansion. He walked over to the gate, and tried to open it, "Locked.. Ofcourse, when it rains!" Roxas muttered to himself. He flung the hood off his head and looked up at the second story window.

Namine looked down apon the boy, shaking the gate in frustration. "The lock must have been blown over..." she thought aloud, scurrying down the stairs. She at least owed it to the boy to let him inside... after all it was raining. Cautiosly opening the front door to the mansion, she stepped outside, the downpour immediately making her hair stick to the fram of her face. She walked slowly towards the gate, not wanting to run and end up slipping. Namine didn't know how to really explain her existance here... but the nobody didn't think twice as she laid her hand on the latch. She moved quickly, the lock dropping to the floor. She said nothing to the boy, but instead stepped back so he could open the large iron doors that blocked off the forest from the mansion. The rain grew heavier, and thunder echoed as lighting cracked across the sky. Namine's blue eyes remained steady, not wavering, even with the loudest burst.

Roxas blinked when he saw the girl stepping out of the mansion. He looked down at the lock on the ground, wondering what to do now. He could just run away, but he knew he would be back to figure out who this girl was. Why not find out a chapter faster? He let his hand rise up to touch the cold, soaked metal. He slowly budged it oped. It made a creaking sound, like from those horror movies. He didn't know if that was an omen, or just the rusting of the metal. He guessed it was the metal as he stepped closer to the girl. His hair was no longer in his usual spikes, but they were down and long. His bangs went over his left eye, but he didn't mind. He closed the gate behind him and looked over to the girl, waiting for some explination as to why she was here at a locked mansion in the rain. Was she like a type of ghost, or was she just like him, a girl who wanted to be alone on rainy days. Whoever she was, he hadn't seen her face around Twilight Town before.

Namine watched his hands reach up and grasp the metal, which by now would probably be ice cold. She heard the gentle creak of the rusting hinges as he pushed it open. She waited until he was fully situated past the gate, before speaking, "Hello..." she smiled softly, her own hair a darker shade now that it was wet. "Ah... would you like to come in?" she offered, feeling it only right considering she was letting him soak there. It would be rude to open the gate then ditch him. Without waiting for his answer, Namine walked off towards the front door, hoping he'd follow.

Roxas gave her a strange look as he tentatively followed her. He was still iffy about this girl. His hair was now thoroughly soaked, and his jacket was starting to let some water get into his clothes. He placed one foot in the mansion. He was now freezing. His teeth were chattering, and he was vibrating fiercly. He shook his head to get some of the water out of his hair, but it didn't work that well. His hair was still straight, and infront of his eye. He shrugged and looked up at the girl. Her bright blue eyes were mistifying, and her straight blonde hair completely pwned Ollette's. ((Yes, I just used the word pwned in an RP!)) He blinked a few times, to make sure this was real. He looked around the mansion to get his eyes off the girl. He was inside of the largest room he had ever seen. This musta been as big as the sandlot! 'wait till the guys see this...' he thought to himself.

Namine stood towards the middle of the room, wringing her hair out with her hands. She turned back to look at him, that grin still on her face. She couldn't help but giggle at the fact that his hair was now almost as long as hers. She grinned still, wandering into a room, then returning, with a hand towel. "For your hair." she said, her eyes holding amusement. But not the kind that would make fun of someone, but the kind that lit up her eyes. The nobody was still unsure... how would she explain her sudden appearance out of the mansion? Or the White Room she called home? This boy would probably think her a basket case. Still, he was shivering, and needed to be inside. So Namine brushed away her worry, using her own towel to extract water from her hair.

Roxas let his lips curl into a kind smile. He took the towel, and started working it through his hair. He didn't miss that look in her eyes. They seemed glad he was there. For some reason, he liked that look in her eyes. When he pulled the towel away from his hair, he knew it was no use. His hair was still straight. He sighed and smiled at Namine. "My hair isn't usually like this..." He stated simply, laughing a bit. Instead of trying to do anything with his hair without any gel, he just ran his fingers through, trying to get out a few knots.
"So, for lack of any other question, who are you?"

She smiled, realizing even still his hair would not cooperate. He had asked her a question. Who was she. Gently running a hand through her hair, almost simultaneously with the boy, she spoke, "Namine... you?" she asked shivering a bit with the sudden chill of the dampness. It was indeed could out today, not to mention the rain added bonus degrees.

"Please to meet you Namine... You can call me Roxas," He answered. He still wondered why she was here, but that could wait a bit longer. He started pacing around the large room, he would call this the Sandlot Room. "So, you come here often? I mean, you know places around in here?" He asked, smiling as he stared at the girl again. Her hair seemed a bit lighter and her skin very pale. She was wearing a white dress, that clashed with the dark room of the mansion. She stood very still, but she seemed happy all the same. The nobody in denial((xD)) slowly walked over to the back of the room, stealing gazes at the girl every once in a while. He let his eyes roll over the furniture and the walls.

Namine smiled, Roxas. What a nice name for a boy like him. Even though she barely knew anything at all about this stranger, she could already tell she would end up liking him. Perhaps it was the way he carried himself, or how curagous he was... or maybe the fact that the Mansion didn't scare him one bit. "Yes... I... I stay upstairs." she replied, a bit nervous. She turned now as he walked past her, in order to not appear rude. She smiled again, folding her hands before her casually. It was almost habit.

"Stay? You mean you live here?" He questioned even more. He turned to look at her with a skeptical look. He started walking closer to her. She seemed nervous to say this to him. It made him a bit sad that she would be nervous around him, but he didn't really care either way. He looked at the two stair cases going up. He looked back over to her, "Which upstairs?" He added, laughing a bit.

Namine watched him walk closer, she knew it would seem odd that she lived here. But there was really no way to explain it. She laughed at his stairs comment, pointing to the left case. "Left, then left again." she replied, half smiling. "You're from Twilight Town aren't you? I see you and your friends come in here sometimes." she added.

"Egh, We never really go in, I guess that's why I've never seen you before. They keep saying this place is 'Haunted'. I guess they don't know you live here..." He stated, not affected as much as he thought by the fact she lived here. He started to move to the left stairs, to find her room. He pretty much skipped up the stairs, looking back to be sure she was following him. When he saw her just standing there, stiff as a stone, he laughed. He gestured for her to come on, and started going up the stairs some more. It was a long flight of stairs, but he was soon at the top. He abruply made a turn left and accendenty ran into a wall. He fell straight on his butt. He made a soft groaning sound as he lifted himself up off the ground. He sighed as he rubbed his head, "O..... Ouch..." He muttered, looking back at Namine.

Namine placed her hand before her mouth, laughing, her eyes like crecents. "A-Are.." you was interupted by echoes.
"Roxas!" "Oh no maybe he was eaten!" "Shaddup Ollette, he was NOT eaten..."
Namine reached down to help him up, then gazed down the steps. "Someones coming... and the rain seems to have stopped." she noted, hearing footsteps approach.
