Disclaimer: I do not own Kingdom Hearts in anyway. That means I do not own Axel or Roxas.
I remember the first time I met him; it was a cold snowy day in Twilight Town. I was taking a walk since I had nothing better to do, and we walked into each other. I remember him babbling his apologies. I just stood there, thinking he was cute. He had a grey and black snow cap caressing his head as I could see the hint of blonde hair escaping the front. He had blue eyes and I couldn't help but stare into them after he asked me to forgive him. And I said, "Of course." His eyes seemed to lighten up as if he was a kid who finally got that candy he was begging his parents for. I couldn't help but smile at the sight. I politely asked if I could walk him home and he agreed. When we got to his house I asked, "What's your name?" He just smiled and answered me with the sweetest voice. His name was Roxas. He invited me in for a while and I decided why not. We became friends right away and I was glad. I needed a friend, I felt so lonely for so long.
I used to go see Roxas all the time. We borrowed each others videogames, movies, cards- you name it. We used to laugh at the most inappropriate moments. We became inspirable through time. We did everything together; like going shopping, going to the movies, took walks together, slept over at each other's house, and even camped out at the beach a few times. I couldn't remember ever being happier. It's like someone out there new I needed a friend and granted me with this amazing angel called Roxas. I couldn't remember a time being without him. He was apart of me; my life, my body, my soul. He had a place in my heart that know one else could replace.
Then one day, he changed. I asked him what was wrong, and he said, "Nothing." He looked torn; like someone took a valuable item from him. I told him that he could tell me anything and I would listen. And that was the truth; I'd listen with open ears, I'd hold him if he needed to be held, anything, I would do it. I pestered him enough because he told me that I was annoying and he didn't need someone bugging him for all eternity. That's when he told me to leave. I begged him not to tear away from me, but he wouldn't listen so I left. My heart was broken; it felt like someone ran over it with a truck. I remember crying for days and I wouldn't leave my room. My dad asked me what was wrong but I wouldn't answer. He tried getting me to go see a therapist, but I wouldn't budge. After a few days it finally hit him. He asked me where Roxas was; that made me cry even harder.
Ever since that day, I haven't been the same. I stayed isolated from groups of people. I'd go to school and right back home, up to my room. I didn't care about anyone anymore. I was emotionless. I wouldn't cry, I wouldn't get angry, and I can't remember the last time I laughed. I was the "loner" was what people called me. I stayed in the back of the classrooms in school, I sat by myself at lunch, and I walked home by myself. I didn't want to get close to anyone ever again. I especially didn't want anyone trying taking that place in my heart that I have for Roxas. My memories with him will never fade; no matter how much they hurt. I needed some kind of happy memory to hold on to.
I still see Roxas in the halls, the office, pretty much everywhere at school. He's always laughing with his group of friends. He's one of those popular students. The girls are all over him and a few guys too. I heard that someone asked him out before. He told them that he didn't date which seemed pretty weird to me.
As happy as he seems, sometimes I see some kind of haunted look in his eyes when he looks at me-well more right through me. He doesn't even acknowledge my presence. It's like I never existed to him; that day we first met, all those times we spent together, the laughter and happiness, never existed.
I always wondered what happened that day. I wish I haven't pressured him in trying to tell me. I just wanted to know what was wrong with my best friend. I wish I had just stayed quiet. Maybe then he would have told me what was wrong. But I'll never blame him for destroying my happiness. I've never knew what that was until I met him. He showed me true happiness, so I won't ever blame him. It's because I love him. I love him with all my heart.
Oh Ra…I was crying when I was typing this. As sad as this is, I like the ending, but I have ideas for this to go further into a story. I'm not sure what I'm going to do yet, but I'm pretty sure I'll make this into a story. And I just don't want to leave Axel all depressed…It would make me feel like I had no heart. xD
Review and tell me what you think I should do.
