Fast Food Madness: The Epic Return V2

Ty whined before barking at the door and Roxas turned around to see him staring at him expectantly. "Don't worry. She'll be in eventually," he told the dog. He then smirked. "And when she is, she's in trouble." Ty's ears perked and Roxas smiled, ruffling the dog's fur before turning and heading for the living room.

 

Namine walked through the garden, wondering if she should try sneaking in through her bedroom window, which was unlocked. But she decided she had enough of sneaking around, and she just wanted to get warm. She shivered and approached the back door, opening it softly.

 

Roxas was walking through the hallway, but then he heard the creak of Namine's back door. He stopped and turned around slightly, thinking. Could he sneak up on Namine, just like she had sneaked out on him? Roxas's sight darted to the bathroom in the hall and he entered it, hiding in the small room.

 

Namine walked in and then shut the door behind her, eyes wandering the room. Roxas was nowhere in sight, but Ty was here to greet her. "Hey boy," she cooed without thought, smiling as she leaned down and petted him. After a few moments, though, she remembered she still had her coat and boots on. She headed through the room and into the next, heading to the entrance hall so she could take off her outerwear.

 

Roxas heard Namine talk to Ty, but he couldn't hear her footsteps nearby. Oh well, if she didn't walk this way, she would look for him eventually.

 

Namine took her coat off after she finished with her boots, putting it on the hook. Then she noticed her other coat was no longer drying from the snow, so she figured she could put it back in her bedroom closet. She looked down at her faithful companion with a small smile, heading into the living room as she spoke to him. "C'mon, boy."

 

Roxas tapped his fingers against his leg as he waited in the bathroom for Namine. He was planning on scaring her, at the same time tickling her for fun. She knew she was in for it, but he didn't think she would be prepared for this.

 

Namine felt Ty walking near her as she walked out of the other side of the living room and into the hallway, holding her dry coat in her hands as she made her way down the hall. Once she took care of putting her coat away, she'd have to figure out what happened to Roxas. Where was he, anyway?

 

Roxas heard footsteps and prepared himself to launch. He set his footing, hands out slightly at his sides as he stared out the doorway. His breathing calmed and became silent, the boy ready as soon as Namine reached the bathroom.

 

Namine exhaled a silent breath, lifting a hand to tuck back a strand of hair as she took a step forward by the bathroom. Her bedroom was coming up on the left, so she'd be there in just a few more steps.

 

Roxas caught a glimpse of Namine's blonde hair and immediately jumped out of the bathroom. "Rah!" he cried, wrapping his arms around Namine instantly. He heard Ty bark in surprise at the attack.

 

Namine yelped in shock, nearly jumping out of her skin when she heard the cry and then felt a pair of strong arms wrap around her. She dropped her coat without thought, eyes wide with the fright the surprise had caused her to feel.

 

Roxas immediately started running his fingers over Namine's side, holding her close to him with his other arm. "You haven't gotten out of this one, young lady," he taunted, a triumphant smirk on his lips.

 

Namine turned her head the moment she heard Roxas' playful voice, feeling him tickle her sides. A few giggles left her lips, though she was still a bit shocked he had jumped out at her like that. "Roxas," she managed through her laughs. "Y-you nearly gave me a heart-attack!" she shut her eyes, the tickling making her laugh too hard to say anything else.

 

Roxas laughed, both at Namine's words and her chuckles. "Sorry!" he said, though his tickling continued. He ran his fingers along Namine's side, knowing that was where she was most ticklish. She knew he was ticklish as well, but he didn't think she could get out of his hold.

 

Namine giggled uncontrollably, feeling Roxas tickling her at her most vulnerable point. And because of the way he was holding her with her back facing him, there wasn't much of a chance that she could break free and tickle him back. Nevertheless, she tried to get free anyway, though she was breathless and still laughing at his tickling.

 

Roxas felt Namine writhing in his hold, but he tried tightening his arm around her to get her to stay. He knew that she was becoming breathless by what was happening to her, so he was going to let her go in just a minute. Roxas wasn't that mean.

 

Namine lowered her head, feeling Roxas tighten his hold on her. There was no way she could get out of this, so she knew she had no choice but to deal with her "punishment." She laughed at the tickling, also feeling herself nearly out of air. She couldn't even find the breath to tell Roxas this fact, but she wasn't afraid; he would stop the moment she appeared too out of breath.

 

Roxas continued his tickle assault for a little longer before bringing it to a stop. That was enough for now. He brought his other arm forward and wrapped it around Namine as well, chuckling still. "I think you've had enough," he told the girl with a smile.

 

Namine heard a few more breathless laughs leave her even after Roxas stopped tickling her, the girl recovering from the tickle-torture. She turned around slightly in Roxas' arms and faced him, wrapping her own arms around his lower back as she leaned into him, out of breath.
