[Truth to tell this isn't something he does all that much either - with family when something really important has happened, that's pretty much it. He's not entirely sure why he did it himself, except she just sounded so lonely and so sad. He remembers when Aqua disappeared, before Terra showed up, and even with Sora and Riku and Kairi around he'd felt all alone... But it's even worse for her, because apparently something had gone on with Sora that probably Sora himself wasn't aware of, something important having to do with her, and now all of a sudden everything else ever is going on for her and he knows she'd prefer Roxas right now but he's what she's got. At least he's someone - he can be there for her.]

Maybe... he might show up. [This is going to be difficult to explain, and he's not letting go of her yet, but it might give her some hope.] Like what happened with you - sometimes people come from in the past and not just the present. That's what happened with Demyx, so it could happen to Axel too, maybe. There's just no way to know for real.
