Okay guys. This is my first story. I'll put up more later on so look every now and then.

Best Friends

A flicker in his eyes was the one he would remember forever. He stood on the hill and looked at the boy in front of him. His eyes, the boy's eyes… they both held the sadness and pain that they would have to endure. A tear rolled off his cheek and fell to the ground, the tear forming a droplet on the ground. The boy's red hair swayed in the wind along with his own blonde hair. The silence seemed to welcome the many thoughts that went through his young mind. His friend, his best friend, the one he would ever feel like best friends with, was leaving. He blinked his sapphire eyes and looked into his friends emerald eyes. He opened his mouth to say something but closed it.

"I guess this is goodbye Roxas." The boy said, casting his gaze downward. Roxas snuffled.

"No. It can't be. It won't. Axel, tell me you're staying. Please! I don't want you to go!" Roxas said crying. Axel sighed.

"I have to. You know that the organization wants me to go. There's no other way." Axel said calmly.

"No. If you have to go, then I'm going too. We have to stay together Axel." Roxas replied forcefully. "Huh?" Roxas piped as Axel handed him a phone.

"It's a cell phone. It has my number in it. If you ever need to talk to me, call me. But where I'll be is a secret. You will have to find me." Axel said and the taxi honked. Axel looked at Roxas one more time, it might be the last time he'd ever see that boy's face again.

"Axel please." Roxas pleaded but Axel shook his head. He grabbed Axel in a hug and cried.

"I have to go now." Axel said and let go. He turned to leave and Roxas grabbed his arm. Axel looked gently at the boy and the boy let go. Axel headed to the car followed by Roxas. Axel got into the car and looked at Roxas.

"Aishiteru." Axel said. Roxas smiled and Axel closed the door. The taxi sped off with Roxas in the dust.

Roxas trudged back home, slowly, as if his life had went down the drain. His best friend, his only true friend, had left him with all the "fake" friends back at the organization. Well, he wouldn't get back quite yet. Roxas found a place to sit under a tree. He sat there, back against the tree. He opened the phone and saw the picture. It was a picture him and Axel took a few days ago. The boys were smiling and did bunny ears on each other. It made Roxas content and miserable at the same time. He sniffed and wiped away the tear already forming in his eye. Then he closed the phone and just listened to nature. He and Axel did that a lot when they went on hiking trips. It was one thing that they always liked to do together. He closed his eyes and listened as the peacefulness overwhelmed him into a nap which was miserable when your best friend is never coming back.

Roxas awoke with a blondish brunette with green eyes was sitting in front of him.

"Whoa! What are you doing here?" Roxas demanded. The boy chuckled.

"Came to fetch you to come back home." The boy replied happily. 'Great.' Roxas thought, 'Idiot came to get me. Axel, you should be here to ward away this Demyx from my presence.' Roxas stood up.

"Thanks for the kind offer Demyx, but I can get home by myself. I don't need you taking me home. I'm old enough!" Roxas said his voice rising higher until it became a yell.

"Dude, don't yell at me because Axel left. He didn't have to go you know. He could've stayed." Demyx said slightly annoyed.

"Uh. Yeah. And have to listen to all of you tell him he's better off gone. I can see Demyx, I have eyes. I know how you treated him. Poorly. And now he's gone, probably forever." Roxas said starting to sob. He sat back down and put his face into the tree. Now the boy would have something to talk about. 'Young Roxas cries over heretic friend.' He didn't deserve this. Neither him nor Axel. Everyone should've kept their noses out of their business. Then he wouldn't have to leave. Roxas finally noticed the hands that were upon his shoulders and a voice in his ear.

"Come on Roxas. Time to go home." Demyx said soothingly. Roxas succumbed to the voice. Home. Maybe Axel would be at home. Maybe he only got a ride home. But then why'd he leave Roxas to walk home? Demyx had gotten up and Roxas extended a slightly trembling hand up to him. Demyx pulled him up and Demyx started walking in the direction of the town.

"Hey, aren't we supposed to be heading home?" Roxas asked with a baffled look on his face.
