Secret Admirer

Chapter 1

The letters started coming quite rapidly after Valentine's Day, the holiday where love starts filling up the air. It was cute at first, with the loving compliments and the scribbled hearts but it soon escalated. His "secret admirer" would send flowers and they were beautiful, absolutely gorgeous with their bright colors. Though, they weren't as lively the next day... or the day after that. By the end of the month, the radiant flowers he would receive weren't even alive anymore. They were dead, burnt-looking and just crispy, crumbling into ashes whenever you touched them.

Along with the flowers, he would receive some odd presents. The ones that had him arching his eyebrow in confusion because it made absolutely no sense. It was as if his secret admirer wanted him to run home crying to his mother. Though, he wasn't bothered by it at first until they kept coming. It made him slightly nervous, as the strange gifts started to develop into something more malicious and cruel.

He also had this weird feeling that he was being watched. Every time he went to his little job, a fast-food restaurant, it was as if there was someone keeping an eye on him. Whenever he walked home, he would turn back with anxiety from the piercing gaze on him. He tried to convince himself that it was only from the uneasiness he felt from those wretched love letters but that never seemed to do the trick.

Needless to say, Roxas was officially creeped out. For the next six months, it was like a never-ending nightmare. He never expected for things to transition from a simple cute love letter to a story filled full of terror.

February 14- Day 1 (Valentine's Day)

It was an ordinary day, except for the fact that people were cuddling in his little workplace a whole lot more now. Valentine's Day was definitely not the day for him, especially with the groping and the tongue wars he has been seeing lately. There were even people handing out their bouquets of roses or expensive chocolates in this smelly fast-food restaurant. Honestly, couldn't people afford a real restaurant for their dates? You know, with something more romantic than flies buzzing around their heads. Unless they're into eating juicy hamburgers and greasy french fries. Whatever, it's his life he should be judging.

Roxas sighed, shuffling his hand through his oily blond hair, only to pull back with revulsion at the gross feeling of his hair. He should've definitely taken a shower this morning. He immediately straightened up when a customer entered the shop, walking straight to the cashier to order.

"Hello ma'am, how may I help you today?" He placed on a polite smile, his usual low voice pitching up slightly to sound friendly and sweet. The lady smiled back at him, placing an order of cheeseburger and fries. He quickly jotted the order down on the cashier, before raising his eyes to the lady. "We'll be right out with your order."

His shift was about to end which made him sigh in relief, exhausted with the long aching day. However, he couldn't rest just yet. He made a promise with his cousin that he was going to hang out with him after he was through with his job. They were heading out to eat at this restaurant in downtown, where Italian food was going to be served. The thought of it made his mouth water, eager to start eating such a delicious meal.

Being surrounded by burgers and fries each day only made him appreciate his cousin's attempts to take him out for dinner. It was torture working here because he was never able to eat or afford luxurious meals. Also, he wasn't earning a high salary working in this dumpy fast-food restaurant. Roxas would feel an ounce of regret, understanding that he made the decision to skip college, which resulted in a shitty job and a run-down apartment complex.

It wasn't long before his cousin stride in with his dreadful, flashy clothes. Roxas raised an eyebrow, unimpressed when his cousin sent a wide grin and a teasing wink his way. His cousin soon strolled over towards him, slamming his hands down on the counter, an enthusiastic smile curving upwards.

"Roxas, are you ready for the best night of your life?" Roxas sighed, tiredly staring at his beaming cousin, who yelled out the words in excitement.

"Sora, you've got to stop screaming everytime you walk in here. You're going to get me fired one day." Sora laughed, shaking his head.

"There's no way that's going to happen. Your boss likes me too much to fire you!" Sora exclaimed, before flickering a flirtatious wink behind the blond. Roxas groaned, realizing that his boss was now standing behind him. An amused laugh rang in the air, as a hand clamped down on his shoulder. He turned his head slightly to meet shining brown eyes. His boss was just a kind young woman who was quite fond of Sora, his loud-mouthed cousin.

"It's fine, Roxas! Just go have fun!" His boss declared, smiling gently at Sora, who had a 'smug' expression on his face. "It's Valentine's Day! Go lighten up and enjoy your time with Sora."

Roxas sent a strained smile at his boss, nodding slightly before slipping his apron off, along with his hat. He placed it in the rack, where he usually placed his uniform at. As soon as he walked around the counter, Sora had placed his arm around his shoulders, studying the kissing couples in the booths. Roxas only regarded them with a disgusted glance. They exited the fast-food restaurant, cold air immediately blasting their faces. Roxas took a deep breath of fresh air, glad to leave the stuffy environment.

"Man, did you see the amount of people smooching in there? How can you stand seeing that all day? Holy shoot, I hope we don't see any of that tonight." Sora had scrunched his face in repulsion, a disgusted sound escaping out of him. Roxas shivered, the frozen weather chilling his bones.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah.. I'm freezing my butt out here, Sora. Where the hell did you park your car?" Roxas gritted out, his teeth chattering. Sora glanced at him, taking note of the simple short-sleeved shirt and cargo pants Roxas was wearing. Roxas was never the one to dress appropriately for the weather, especially with his lifestyle.

"It's nearby, just next to that red car over there." Sora pointed towards his own car. Roxas quickly ran ahead, pulling the handle only to find it locked. Roxas glared at Sora, who grinned sheepishly and with a press of a button, the doors unlocked with a beep. Roxas stuffed himself in, rubbing his arms as an attempt to warm himself. Sora entered after him shortly, starting the car, inserting his key into the ignition. "You know, it's going to take some time before the car warms up.."

"I know, let's just drive to the restaurant already. I'm craving some Italian food." Sora blinked, flickering his shocked eyes to Roxas, who frowned in confusion.

"Wait what? You want to head to one of the most expensive restaurants in town dressed like that?" Sora cried out, throwing his hands up in exasperation. Roxas glanced down at his own clothes, frowning at the ketchup-stained shirt, before placing on a weak grin. Oh yeah, he was still dressed in the foul uniform he was required to wear. He really never bothered to buy a new, clean shirt nor did he ever worried about the stains on his uniform, mostly because an apron usually covered his whole body.

"Well, we wouldn't want to be late to the reservations you placed.." Roxas muttered, wincing slightly at the hysterical laugh that escaped the brunet. Sora scrutinized each and every detail on Roxas with disbelief.

"Well then, I guess it was a good idea to pick you up two hours earlier than the time I booked." Sora croaked out, before focusing on exiting the parking lot. "Let's just go to your complex to clean you up."

"But isn't the restaurant an hour away from my place?" Roxas complained, narrowing his eyes until Sora interrupted with a repulsed groan. Keeping a hand on the wheel, he pointed harshly at Roxas with a horrified expression, mouth clenched tight in a moan.

"Roxas, you look like one of those homeless people in the streets! Your clothes are covered in gross substances and your hair isn't even in the usual messy style you like it to be in! It's a freaking bird's nest with it's tangles and it's so greasy! Your face is oily too! Oh gross, you're seriously going to break into pimples.. Plus, that smell!" Sora sniffed the air, gagging in horror. "Oh god, when was the last time you took a shower? You smell putrid!" Roxas frowned, deeply offended, before pushing his nose into his stained shirt, taking a huge whiff. He choked, pulling his nose away from his smelly shirt.

"I don't smell that bad!" Roxas gasped out, rolling down the windows. He stuck his head out, breathing in the cold clean air. He quickly glanced back at Sora, who raised an eyebrow.

"Sure, of course you don't." Sarcasm was clear in his voice. Roxas snorted, leaning back as he rolled the windows back up.

"Then, I guess you should've invited Riku or Kairi instead of my stinky self." Roxas stated, watching as Sora speeded down the streets, a frenzied expression on his face.

Sora laughed loudly. "No way, you seriously don't know how conceited Riku becomes on Valentine's Day! Just 'cause all the girls give him about ten to twenty love letters each year doesn't mean he can shove them in my face, bragging with that cocky smirk of his."

Roxas glanced at Sora, face devoid of any expression, before dully saying. "But.. don't you receive the same amount of cards as Riku each year?"

"Pftt, I usually only receive about five less letters than him on Valentine's Day but it doesn't do anything at all! He still loves to brag about how all the ladies want him.." Roxas sighed tiredly, rubbing his temples in aggravation. Ah yes, Sora was definitely a well-known charmer... So, it must've strained his ego when he saw Riku gain more love letters than him.

"Then, how 'bout Kairi?" Roxas suggested, scratching his greasy hair in thought.

"Meh, she's on a date with her girlfriends tonight..." Sora mumbled, before glancing at him with a big smile. "Besides, I wanted to spend time with you, not them..

Roxas sighed, rubbing his eyes tiredly. He felt exhausted and fatigued, his muscles aching from the long day at work. All he wanted to do was go home, eat and take a long, relaxing nap but he promised Sora to spend the night with him and his fancy Italian restaurant. Roxas felt his stomach growl in hunger, the taste buds on his tongue craving for a delicious, warm meal.

It wasn't long before they pulled up in front of his apartment complex twenty minutes later. Sora quickly grabbed his keys from the ignition, before rushing out of the car. Roxas slowly moved out, shivering when his warm body contacted with the cold once again. Sora gripped his arm with a frantic look, hastily tugging him through the parking lot and up a couple flights of stairs. Soon, they were in front of Roxas's door, gasping for breath in the freezing weather.

"Come on, open the door!" Sora blurted out. Roxas shot him a look, before taking out his keys from his pocket. Sora was tapping his foot, anxiously waiting. Shortly after grabbing his keys, Roxas had the door swung open widely. Immediately, Sora dragged him inside into his tiny apartment. The moment Sora walked inside, his face slowly started to freeze, his eyes widening, appalled. His nose scrunched up in repulsion, the horrified expression from when he described Roxas's appearance was back on his face.

His place was a horrible mess. Dirty dishes were still piled in the sink, paperwork and clothes was scattered all over the floor while decaying food was lying around the place. The smell was just as revolting as the stench of crap. Bugs such as cockroaches, spiders and ants were everywhere, dead, legs pointing upwards. It was a pig's den...

"Uhh, Roxas?" Sora asked, an eyebrow raising, giving a small shudder of disgust at the cockroach crawling around in an abandoned bowl of chips.

"What?" Roxas mumbled, trudging to his bedroom, avoiding the papers that were on the floor.

"Did someone break into your place or something? Your apartment looks as terrifying as your-umm-fashion style." Sora bluntly interjected, glancing around the untidy residence. "Don't you know how to clean?"

"Oh shut it, Sora. I just don't have the time to clean. I'm too busy with work to do anything around here." Roxas muttered. "And besides, I want to relax on the days I'm off my crummy job." Roxas entered his room, walking straight to his closet, searching for any decent clothes to wear. Sora also followed him into his room, staring into the closet. Roxas was about to grab one of his favorite outfits when Sora yelled into his ear.

"I think you should wear that!" Sora pointed at an awfully bright orange shirt. Roxas sent him a strange glance, nose wrinkling with distaste. Sora smiled sheepishly at the baffled look. "Well, it looks like the cleanest shirt in this closet."

"Sora, look.." Roxas spitted out, irritation building up. "Just 'cause I'm a slob doesn't mean I don't have a good taste in style." Sora raised an eyebrow, about to reply when Roxas interrupted. "I'm not about to start wearing the same morbid clothes as you. I think you should be the one changing as well into something more...decent."

Sora raised his hands defensively, insulted. "Hey, my clothes are fantastic the way they are!" Roxas scoffed, digging through his clothes once again. "Fine, I guess I won't ever give out any of my lovely advice to you ever again."

In his opinion, Sora never handed out the greatest suggestions.

Roxas finally decided to grab an outfit, the colors neutral and the clothes clean, nothing like Sora's flashy style. Sora whistled appreciatively, eyeballing the clothes in Roxas's hands, whispering the words "nice choice." Roxas, satisfied with his pick, promptly proceeded to shove the brunet out of his room, pushing hard at Sora's back. Sora let out some sort of whine, scrunching his face up when he was crammed into the revolting living room.

"Stay out here while I take a quick shower." Roxas demanded, before walking straight to his bathroom that was placed down the hall.

"Wait! What am I suppose to do out here?" Sora shouted out. Roxas glanced back to find his cousin waving his arms frantically, an exaggerated expression on his face. He flickered his eyes around his living room, thinking.

"Well," Roxas muttered. "Why don't you sit down on the couch and sit there patiently while I take a shower?" Sora examined the filthy leather couch, splattered with papers, food and crawling bugs.

"Ugh, you want me to sit on that?" Sora gagged, hands wrapping around his stomach as he pretended to throw up. Roxas rolled his eyes, unimpressed by the display of bad acting.

"Yes," Roxas replied. "I want you to sit down on the couch and shut your mouth while you're at it. I need to go to take a shower." It wasn't soon before Sora obtained this frantic glint in his eyes, glancing down at his watch.

"Oh gosh! What are you waiting for?! You only got twenty minutes to shower! Hurry up!" Sora said, urgently shooing him away.

Roxas walked straight to his bathroom, shutting it loudly, before locking it. He placed the disheveled clothes on his dusty counter, walking to the shower, twisting the knob to the right for the warm water. After water started bursting out of the faucet, he stumbled back next to the counter, staring at himself more closely at the dirty mirror.

Roxas was never the one to obsessively gaze at himself in the mirror and he was glad he never did. Sora was right on point about his appearance, everything about him screamed unhygienic and icky. Compared to Sora's clean self, Roxas was a complete slob in everything he did. His hair wasn't even the way he liked it! There was once a time where he always combed his hair into that messy, unkempt style he just adored. It was perfect and it felt so right! But now, it was just a tousled mop of knotted, blond hair. Roxas hated it, especially the way it gleamed with grease, bright blond hair now muddy with dirt.

Everything about him was shitty; his life, his apartment, his crappy job and his gross appearance. It all went down-hill after high school, when Roxas decided to ditch college because it just wasn't worth the time or money. He couldn't even make the right decisions for himself! Now, all he had was a job that paid a low wage. Roxas sighed bitterly, before lifting his stinky shirt off his chest, along with his other pieces of clothing.

Roxas stepped into his shower, groaning when the warm water pelted his body. It was relaxing, as the heat warmed his slightly chilly body. Roxas grabbed his shampoo, squirting it out into his hand, before rubbing furiously at his scalp. Along with his hair, he scrubbed his body down, determined to make it squeaky clean. It had been nice, showering in the warm water for at least five minutes, until the water suddenly went cold, making him step back with a shudder. Groaning, he quickly finished up, mumbling about how bad his living conditions were.

Roxas grabbed his towel, leaving the shower, shivering when his wet body met the cold air. He rubbed himself dry, firmly dragging his towel all over his body until he felt clean. Then, he placed his clothes on, smoothing out the wrinkles with his hands slowly. After that, he glanced at the foggy mirror, wiping his hand over the mirror to find a better view on himself. However, the fogginess kept returning so he opened the door slightly, allowing for the humid air to escape the stuffy bathroom.

He cleaned the mirror once again, frowning at the wet hair before grabbing his towel and scrubbing his hair wildly. After a few minutes, he released the towel from his head, discovering his hair was now a fluffy, dry mess. But it didn't mattered, because there was definitely a time where all Roxas did was style his hair after it was a messy state such as this. Roxas scavenged his drawers, before finding an unused, old hair gel. Then, after applying some gel and combing through his hair... Voila! It was the same, nice style he loved back in high school. Good old memories...

Roxas walked out and for once in a decade, he was dressed in the nicest clothes he ever worn. However, Sora wasn't on the bug-infested couch like he was supposed to. Roxas found Sora standing near his dining table, rummaging through the pile of mail he grabbed in the morning.

"Sora, why the hell are you going through my stuff?" Roxas shouted, stomping over to his cousin. Sora flinched, flickering his eyes to the blond.

"I foun-" Sora stilled, eyes widening with bewilderment, as he examined Roxas from the top of his head to the bottom. "Wow, you sure know how to clean yourself up. You look exactly the same from our high school days.." Sora gasped, amazed. Roxas gave a proud smirk as he took in the fascinated look adorned on the brunet's face.

"Yeah, I know." Roxas's smile soon died down to a frown. "Sora, why were you going through my mail?" Sora blinked, before a huge grin curved upwards, a few mischievous laughs escaping him. He shoved his hand under the stack of mail, until he gripped one of the letters. Then, he pulled his hand out of the pile and started waving a pink, frilly letter teasingly in front of him. Roxas just stared at Sora, puzzlement etched all over his face.

"I was just trying clean this place a little and look at what I found! It's a love letter! Why didn't you tell me someone sent you a Valentine's letter!?" Roxas only blinked, confusion clear in his cerulean orbs. What, a love letter?

"Huh?" Roxas uttered, scratching his stiff blond hair. "I don't remember having that when I grabbed my mail this morning..." Sora frowned disappointedly, before shrugging.

"I guess you must've missed it then."

Roxas reached for the pink letter, curious to learn who sent the mail. However, Sora pulled it away from him, hiding it behind his back, wagging his finger with his other hand. Roxas's hand was still suspended in midair, before it was slowly dropped back besides him. Roxas frowned irritably, eyebrows furrowed, sending an exasperated look at the brunet. Sora had broken into another huge grin, eyes glinting with amusement and joy.

"Let's open it at the restaurant after we finish our meals since I brought all of my love letters too! We can open yours last, Roxas!" Sora plunged the pink letter inside his coats jacket, crumpling it a little. "By the way, all my lovely letters are in the car!" Roxas frowned, sending a slight suspicious glare towards Sora.

"Sora." He started. "Did you bring those letters just to brag?" Sora only replied with a sheepish grin, a nervous chuckle escaping his throat, as he rubbed the back of his head slowly. Roxas just groaned loudly, gripping his head in annoyance. Of course he would bring his letters, he always loved showing off.

"Hey! That's not the reason why!" Sora tried to reason, anxious smile still placed on his face. "The only reason I brought them was to show you how funny the content is! It's hilarious and flattering! We can laugh at my letters together!" Roxas only glared at his cousin, who nervously laughed.

"Whatever.. Let's just leave." Roxas muttered, shaking his head, a flat expression on his face. The blond trudged to his room, trying to find the comfiest coat in his closet. Once he placed his warm coat on, he left the room, only to find Sora still standing there. "Well, why aren't you in the car? You should've tried to warm the car up while I was busy." Sora flashed an embarrassed smile, before zipping out of his messy apartment, racing down the stairs. Roxas sighed tiredly, rubbing his exhausted eyes, before slowly trudging to grip his keys he placed on the counter. Then, he was out the place, shuddering from the cold. Roxas soon entered Sora's car with a loud yawn.

"You ready?" Sora exclaimed, excitement was found in his voice as he placed his car into drive. Roxas only clicked his seatbelt on, before leaning back into the chair, relaxing as his eyes fluttered closed.

"You know what?" Roxas mumbled slowly, the effects of fatigue finally catching up to him after a long day at work. "I think we should've crashed at your place for the night. Then, we could've ordered a bazillion pizzas..."

"But a nice dinner on Valentine's Day sounds better than some sleepover we can arrange at any time." Sora argued, as his car left the awful apartment complex. Roxas nodded sluggishly.

"I guess you're right.."

His words were slurred together, heavily laced with exhaustion. Roxas leaned his head against the cool window, finding the rocking of the car to be strangely relaxing. After a while, the car heated up, making Roxas curl up in satisfaction. Soon, he dozed off, listening to the radio Sora had turned on during the pleasant silence. The slow, indie music was whispering into his ear sweetly as he drifted off to dreamland, darkness surrounding the streets as they drove down the never-ending path.

Roxas was in a lovely state of unconsciousness for the next hour, small snores escaping him as the car jumped around.

"Roxas, wake up! We're at the restaurant!" Sora's whispers sounded harsh against his eardrums, making him groan. He was waking up quite nicely until someone decided to shake him awake, rocking him back in forth. "Roxas, we're here! Wake up!" The blond grumpily slapped the hand away, grunting, as his eyes flickered open in annoyance.

"I heard you the first time. No need to repeat.." Roxas grumbled, stretching his arms out. Sora clutched his keys before slipping out into the icy, frozen night. The blond was smoothing out the hair he had slept against. Deeming it fine, he left the car, walking besides Sora into the elegant restaurant. When they first entered the place, Roxas gaped with amazement, goggling the place down.

It was clean..

Cleaner than any place he ever been to.

They were soon able to pass the busy line, guided by the waiter to their table. Roxas was flickering his eyes all over the place, mouth wide open, staring down the entire place. Sora only placed on a all-knowing smirk, as if he knew this would bedazzle the blond in such a way. Opening their menus only made Roxas popped his eyes out even more. It was clear he had no idea what those Italian words meant scribbled all over his menu. The food that was shown on the menu only made his stomach growl, mouth drooling in hunger.

"So, do you know what you want to order?" Sora questioned, closing his menu after he decided his meal for the night.

"I don't know..." Roxas mumbled, feeling conflicted on what to choose. Sora sighed, before taking the menu from Roxas's hands. Then, he showed all the best food options Roxas should pick from, pointing to his favorite. Roxas agreed with the second option he was presented with, his stomach growling even louder. Later, the waiter passed by, jotting down their orders before trudging away.

Their dinner was later placed on their table, the delicious aroma sliding down Roxas's nose. He gripped his fork, ready to plunge it down and ravage all the food when Sora gave him this "look." Roxas only blinked, before an understanding came over him. So, he grasped his fork and knife more gently before neatly eating his meal, cutting the meat and plopping it into his mouth. Sora flashed him a satisfied glance at that before digging into his meal as well. If Roxas had to describe his meal, it would've had the word "heaven" in it. The food was glorious and was definitely the tastiest meal Roxas ever indulged in.

After their meal, Sora slammed a few letters on the table, making Roxas flicker his eyes over to the grinning brunet in confusion. It took Roxas only a few seconds to comprehend what the letters were. A dull look was soon directed towards his gleeful cousin.

"Really?" Roxas questioned, an eyebrow arched, not amused. Sora laughed loudly, his playful blue eyes lighting up with happiness.

"Yes, really!" Sora yelled out, a wicked grin slowly growing wider. He tore the first one out of the seven he placed on the table, reading over it quickly, before shoving it towards Roxas. "Read this one!" Tentatively, Roxas picked the love note from Sora's hand.

Dear Sora,

You're so hot and sexy! I loved the way you winked at me during classes! I love your crazy brown hair, electrifying blue eyes and fantastic fine body. We should hook up sometime! Then maybe, I'll blow your whistle! ;D

Love and Kisses,

Ariel :)

After reading the small message, Roxas sent a dry look towards his cousin. Sora responded with a flattering wink, making the blond groan in disgust. Roxas dropped the letter on the table, before clutching another one from the table. He ripped it open from the mail letter it was contained in, reading over the context. Once again, Roxas groaned, slapping the card back down on the table.

"Sora, these love letters aren't romantic at all.." Roxas declared, rubbing his temples in aggravation. The blond wasn't sure whether to laugh or snort at Sora's broad smile. Like Sora said, the cards were hilarious but they were a bit silly and indecent. "I feel like the people who sent you these cards weren't trying to be serious at all.." Sora gave a slight pout, crossing his arms in disagreement.

"Well, at least I receive love letters!" Roxas scowled, narrowing his eyes at Sora, before a slight gasp of realization escaped him. Didn't Sora mentioned that there was a card sent to him?

"But I did receive a letter! The one you took from me!" Sora blinked, his mouth opening wide. Without a single word, Sora reached for the inside of his coat and handed the card to him, curious eyes peering intently at the letter. Roxas stared down at the letter, engraving every detail into his head. Then, he slowly opened it.

It was...

Cute, he guessed... There were hearts scrambled all over the letter in pink, red and purple crayons. The handwriting was a bit sloppy, appeared a bit rushed but the content wasn't long. Roxas heard a couple, muffled giggles escape his cousin, a hand pressed against his mouth, his eyes twinkling with amusement. The blond only sent a little harsh glare at the brunet, who smiled innocently. Feeling his face reddening, he started to read the letter.

Roxas,

When I first laid my eyes on you, I want you to be mine and mines only. I'm infatuated with your smile, eyes, mouth, nose, body, laugh, hands, everything... The dazzling ocean is no match for your brilliant, bright, blue eyes. Your gorgeous smile is brighter than any existing star in the vast space. Your body surpasses even God's most perfect creation. Everything about you is perfection. I love you and only you..

Will you be my Valentine?

Love,

Secret Admirer

Sora started laughing loudly, making Roxas blush in embarrassment. The blond scowled, his face warm, as he stared daggers into his cousin. Roxas couldn't help but feel flattered, his chest beating quickly. He was a bit relieved as well when he found no suggestions of anything sexual like Sora's letters. Plus, it's not like he ever received a letter before..

"This looks like something Namine would draw." Sora was pointing at the awfully drawn hearts, snickering a bit. "Maybe Namine wrote this to you.."

"Namine does not draw like that!" Roxas said a bit defensively, narrowing his eyes at Sora. "Plus, why would she even want to send me a letter? I don't even talk to her that much!" Sora stopped laughed, his lips still curved up.

"You're right! Why would she give you a letter when she already gave me this one?!" Sora placed on a huge grin, snatching one of the delicate-looking letters off the table, wagging it around. Roxas went wide-eyed, shocked.

"She sent you a letter!" Roxas spluttered, mouth gaped open. "B-But she wouldn't write anything like that!" Roxas was referring to the implied promises of sex in the letters he have read so far. Sora sent him another damned wink, his face pleased.

"I have my ways.." Sora purred, his face frozen in a huge grin before it toned down into a small smile. "Just kidding, she would never ever send me anything like that. We started this thing in high school where we would send letters on Valentine's Day. We would just compliment each other, nothing too big." Roxas sighed in ease, his face relaxing from the horrified expression that was previously placed on his face.

"Ugh, of course she wouldn't do that.." Roxas groaned, planting his face in his hands. Namine was an elegant girl, not some slut Sora would associate with.

"You know, maybe some twelve year old girl wrote that letter to you! She's probably crushing on you!" Sora declared, clasping his hands together tightly, a few laughs escaping him. Roxas glowered at his cousin, a scowl placed on his face.

"It was a cute letter..." Roxas stated awkwardly, his face turning pink. Sora chuckled at him, before standing up, stretching his stiff limbs out. It was late at night and most of the customers had already left the fancy restaurant.

"Ready to go?" Sora questioned. Roxas nodded, lifting himself up from the comfy chair.

They were soon out of the heated restaurant, walking straight to the car, shivering from the cool night. Roxas was feeling quite satisfied by the end of the day. His stomach was full, purring in content. While his ego stood tall, triumph about the lovely letter he received. He was satisfied, along with a small flicker of curiosity. However, his fulfilling night will shortly end. After tonight, he would be back at his job, taking orders for customers all day, living his boring life.

Sometimes, Roxas just wanted a change from the usual routine that devoured his life. If anything, he wished for it deeply.

A/N: Is it obvious I got lazy at the end? I really want to slap myself for writing another story idea. So, this will probably be the last multi-chaptered story idea I'll post until I finish one of my other stories. I was just in a mood to write something dark like this. But we haven't really went anywhere with this chapter yet.. But, it'll get darker later on.. I'm just so ughh. I need to write a story with more romance next time.. Actually, I promise the next multi-chaptered story idea I'll ever post next will be romantic.

I was actually a bit conflicted on whether to make this with some other character but I was like never mind, might as well use my favorite characters. i am so tired and bored... I think I'll look over it tomorrow ;D

Plus, I'm not good at writing love letters so it's a bit weirdly written. LOL, I was gonna write a love poem but then I realized I sucked at writing poems... :D

Sorry if this chapter was a bit boring, I'm not sure if I liked it since it's not that interesting. I'm going to work on my other stories after this..
