"Damn I hate this…" grumbled the red head as he stood in front of Hearts High with a cigarette in his mouth. Several students were giving him irritated looks, and he just repaid them with his gloved finger. Its mid-December and exams are closing in. Everyone was bundled up trying to walk and study at the same time. Some students bumped into others who momentarily stopped and said their apologies. But Axel….he could care less about all this. If it weren't for his older brother Reno, he would've dropped out a long time ago. He always ranted on and on about having a good education and not screwing his life up. But Axel just didn't care. He would rather be out playing his guitar, or riding roller coasters until his face turned green and he was running to the nearest trash bin.
He took one last drag of his cigarette, blowing out a stream of smoke before dropping it and kissing it with his heel. He began making his way to the entrance of the school, chains clanging together causing more eyes to land on him. Axel just shook them off like he always did and opened the door leading to the main hall, the warm air greeted his cold face.
Once he was inside he noticed the main hall was a vast wasteland. Not one soul was around and that made the red head wonder. 'The halls are usually filled with chatter and laughter. What the hell is going on?' he thought. He wandered around until his question was answered when he heard several voices chanting 'Fight! Fight! Fight! ' He ran towards all the commotion and saw a cluster of people surrounding Saix and a blonde boy he has never seen before. The boy was wearing an electric blue jacket along with some black skinnies that were skin tight. There were several holes all over them revealing most of his pale legs. He had on some black high tops that had rainbows and skulls drawn towards the front. Axel looked at the boys face and instantly fell for him. He had some eyeliner on, making his sapphire eyes pop out. He had snake bites and several piercing on his ears including gauges. His hair was blonde, and towards the top it was dyed candy blue. 'He's so….beautiful' thought Axel.
Saix on the other hand didn't look so pretty. He had a black eye and a busted lip that caused blood to trail down his chin to his white shirt. While the blonde didn't have as much as a scratch. A smirk appeared on his face as he began talking, "Come on retard! Is that all you can do?" Saix spat blood onto the silver tiles below before charging towards the blonde man. Blondie just stepped to the side waiting for Saix to turn around to deliver his finishing blow. Saix turned around glaring at the man, but before he could charge again the boy had punched the blue haired boy right into next week. The blonde boy glanced down at Saix and kneeled down beside him. "Next time you start bitching, at least put up a better fight." Saix practically growled as the blonde stood up and walked away with a slight sway on his hips.
As everyone began walking away mumbling about how the new guy beat up the strongest in the school and such. Axel stood there with his mouth open. How could he not stand there in awe? The guy was a complete hottie and he just beat the crap out of Saix without even getting a scratch. "Wow" he mouthed. "That's Roxas Strife, he just transferred here and he's already looking for trouble." Axel jumped at the sound of Demyx's voice and turned around with a smirk on his face. "Dude you should know by now that I like trouble." Demyx couldn't help but put his arm around him and start laughing. "Yea I know dude, I know."
Demyx has been friends with the red head since he first arrived at Hearts High. The punk was the first to glomp the man and tell him he was now his friend. Demyx was always there to help him get out of trouble and he also introduced him to some of his friends like: Riku, Namine, and Zexion. Those four were basically family to the red head and he would do anything for them, no matter the cost.
Axel rolled his eyes and brushed Demyx's arm off. "So Demy do you know anything else about blondie?" He asked. Demyx answered and told him he had an older brother named Sora and that that was all he knew about him at the time. "But don't worry Ax, I'll have more info on him soon." Axel began to laugh. Demyx was the kind of person that knew absolutely everything about everyone. Just when Axel was about to ask him one more question the warning bell rang. "I'll talk to you later Demyx." Was all Axel said as he made his way to his locker; number 8.
He began stuffing some books into his already full locker. When he was finished he looked at his reflection in the mirror. 'I need some more eyeliner.' He thought. He digged into his pocket and pulled out his worn down eyeliner stick. He began applying it on when he heard the locker a few feet down open. 'That's funny, lockers down there are empty…' he thought. When his eyeliner was applied he closed his locker door and looked across from him. Right there standing in front of locker 13 was Roxas. He was putting some items away, and at times he would sweep his bangs to the side. Axel didn't notice he was staring at the blonde boy until Roxas turned and looked at him. The boy smirked and closed his locker and walked away, once again with a soft sway of his hips. "Oh god… well that was embarrassing." He mumbled.
As Axel took his original seat in the back of the classroom, he took out his geometry book and began working on the problems that were assigned on the board. He then heard his teacher telling everyone to stop what they were doing and look up. Axel rolled his eyes and rested his head on the palm of his hand. His eyes widened when he saw Roxas beside his teacher.
"Class this is Roxas Strife. He's new here and I would like for all of you to give him a great welcoming." That was all Mr. King said before heading back t his desk and taking a seat. Roxas began walking towards the empty seat beside the red head. 'Oh god he's going to sit next to mee?' Roxas sat down and took out a notebook. He looked up at the board then over at Axel. "Um can I share with you?" his voice was quiet and gentle and it caught Axel off guard. It didn't sound like the guy he saw that morning. Axel raised a red brow at him. "Um w-what?" he asked. Roxas chuckled and pointed at the geometry book on his desk. "Can I share the book with you?" Axel was feeling quite stupid until he answered the blue spiked boy. "Sure just scoot your desk over a bit." Roxas smiled and stood up. Several students looked at him with confused stares. One would expect he would try to make no noise at all, but it seemed he wanted to make everyone in the classroom look at them. It seemed he wanted to attract attention. He pushed the desk towards Axel, its legs screeching against the silver tiles as it was being pushed. Several students complained and Roxas just rolled his eyes and sat down next to the red head.
Axels face was now as red as his hair. Everyone in the room was looking at them. 'Damn why can't they just turn around?' he thought. "That's enough everyone! Do your work, and Mr. Strife would you try not to make so much noise next time? People are trying to work." Mr. King exclaimed. In return Roxas rolled his eyes and turned to Axel. "So, what's your name sexy?" The red head's eyes widened. "Sexy?"
"Aww come on now! Tell me your name." Roxas' chuckles were echoing in Axel's head, his face growing even redder. Then the unexpected happened, he felt something on his thigh. When he looked down he found the small pale hand of the blue spiked boy.
Roxas proceeded in moving his hand even higher. "Come on." He was now a few inches away from his neck. Axel could feel his hot breath against his skin. "A-Axel" He breathed. "That's a nice name you have there…Axel." Then Axel moaned and that caused some students to turn around, but luckily enough they had no idea what was going on. Roxas was now toying with the bulge on the red heads pants. Apparently they where at it for a while because the bell rang. Axel stood and scurried away from the blue spiked boy, hearing him chuckle behind him. He leaned against the lockers and looked down at the bulge. "Fuck!"
Axel arrived at his lunch table with a sigh of relief. He sat on his usual spot next to Namine and smiled. "Hey Nami!" The red head gave the small blonde a tight hug, causing the fragile girl to laugh. "Axel! Come on I can't breathe!" Axel chuckled as he let go of the girl, "Sorry I guess I get carried away huh?" Namine nodded and ruffled the red heads hair. "Mind telling me what's bothering you Axel?"
Axel looked at the blonde girl in disbelief. 'How does she always know something's wrong?' he wondered. "Come on Ax.. You know you can't hide things from me." She finished in that gentle smile of hers and he sighed. "Nami, it seems I've fallen for the new boy." Namines eyes sparkled when she let out a smile. "Why Axel there's nothing wrong with that! Why are you so sad? You're usually up and about telling everyone." She placed her hand on his shoulder giving him a questioning look. "I don't know what's going on with me. This guy's different… he makes me feel different than the others." Axel looked down at his boots. Memories of Roxas being inches away, his breath on his neck, his touch crawling up his thigh were rushing back. He felt his face get hot at the memory. He brushed them off and looked up at Namine once again. The blonde had a brilliant smile on her face. "Um, why so happy?" she giggled at his question. "Axel you're in love, this boy has hit you harder than the others."
Now that he thought about it she might be right. All his past relationships never lasted long, and every single one of them revolved around sex. But Roxas…. He just wanted to have a normal relationship with him. He just wanted to have him by his side. "I think you're right Namine, thanks!" Axel smiled, his lip ring twinkling under the light of the Cafeteria. He embraced her in another hug. All the eyes at the table shot them curious glances, but they soon left and returned to their discussion. "You're welcome Ax. Why don't you look around and se if you find him, maybe you guys can talk. By the way… what's his name?"
"His name is Roxas, and he's the most adorable boy I've ever laid my eyes on!" Namine smiled at Axel. It's been a while since she's seen him this happy, she was hoping it'd last. "Well you should find him, we still have an hour for lunch." Axel nodded and thanked her once more. He had no idea where he would be without her. Namine was the one he went to with his problems, though half the time she found out herself. She would gladly help him, giving him advice that always worked.
Axel stood up and began walking towards the door when someone grabbed his arm. He turned and saw that it was Demyx. The red head raised an eyebrow at the boy as he stood up and whispered in his ear. "Roxas Strife is 17, his older brother Sora is 22 and he's a drop out. He gives Roxas a ride home everyday. I hope I got enough information on the boy for you." Axel laughed and patted the punk on the back. "Yea, thanks a lot bud."
"No problem Ax." Axel nodded and looked over at the lunch table. "Hey Riku, are we still on tomorrow?" Riku's head snapped up at the sound of his name and he waved at Axel. The silver haired boy was wearing the most daring outfit the redhead had ever seen. Sure he himself wore some weird outfits at times. But Riku took it to the next level. The boy was wearing a neon blue shirt along with neon yellow skinnies, his eyes were engulfed in black eyeliner and he had his black snake bites on. The boy was so bright it looked like there was light radiating off him. "Yeah dude!" Axel chuckled and began talking. "Meet me at the usual spot tomorrow!" He heard Riku's Ok and with that he dashed towards the place he thought Roxas would be at.
"Demyx?" the boy turned and faced the blonde girl. "Yes Nami?" "Are you going to tell him?" Demyx looked down and shook his head. "It doesn't matter anymore." But in reality the boy was being eaten alive. He wanted to tell Axel everything but he didn't want to ruin the friendship they had. "Whatever you say Demyx, whatever you say."
Axel was scanning the barren halls looking for the blonde and found nothing. When he reached his locker however he smiled. Right there, right in front of him was Roxas. He was leaning against the lockers looking out the window that took up the whole wall in front of him. He had a slight smiled tugged on his lips and he looked very peaceful.
Axel's heart warmed up at the sight. With that he began walking towards the boy, he tried being quiet but the chains and boots were against him. He sighed when he reached the blonde and mimicked what he was doing. The view was actually really beautiful. There were many trees swaying in the wind, rays of light peeking through the clouds in the sky. It was really relaxing. "What are you doing here?" Axel jumped at the sound of his voice. He turned his head to the side and saw that Roxas didn't bother looking at him. His eyes were fixed at the scenery on front of him. "I um came to talk to you." Axel was now playing with the green disk on his earlobe, a big sign that the redhead was nervous. "About?" Right then emerald clashed with sapphire. It felt like everything around them disappeared and they were alone, all alone. "About this morning." Whispered Axel. Roxas got closer to him and let out a giggle. "Want some more?" Axel felt the blush creep on his cheeks. "Relax Axel.." Roxas got closer to the red head and brushed his fingers over his teardrop tattoos. "These are…nice." Having Roxas touch him, having him so close made the redhead blush even more. "Um…Roxas?" The blonde's eyes met emerald, their faces were now a few inches apart. Roxas hummed as his eyes went from the punks emerald eyes to his pale thin lips. "W-will you go out with me?" Roxas looked up and smiled. "Of course." Axel smiled and leaned down and placed his lips over the blondes. Roxas' lips were so soft against his own. This was what Axel wanted since he laid eyes on the blonde boy, to be with him. Now he had that chance.
Roxas grabbed Axel's shirt and pulled him closer. He licked his lips begging for entrance and Axel gladly gave him full access. Roxas' wet muscle began exploring Axel's wet cavern. There was the slight taste of cigarettes but that taste was soon replaced by the taste of Axel, and the blonde truly loved it. Axel wrapped his arms around the blondes' waist and held him close. Both boys parted lips and began feeding their lungs much needed air. None of them breaking eye contact with each other. "Axel you are so cute!" Roxas laughed and pecked him on the lips. Axel rose his hand up to Roxas' cheek and smiled. "And you're just adorable." Roxas' cheeks began turning a slight shade of pink causing the red head to smile. "Hey Axel?" Axel hummed as he brought his arms down to the blonde's waist. "Do you want to come over to my apartment after school?" Axel could tell he was embarrassed. Roxas was clinging on to his leather jacket not making eye contact. Axel rested his head over Roxas' and smiled. "Of course Roxy."
"Oh gosh, I cant believe I'm actually going to do this!" Demyx was pacing towards Axels locker hoping he might catch him there. But once he turned that corner he wished he had stayed with Zexion and the others. The boy stood there heartbroken. Right there in front of him were Axel and Roxas in embrace laughing and giving each other small pecks on the lips. A small tear went rolling down his cheek and freefalling down to the silver tiled floor. As if the tear had made the sound of an atomic bomb going off both boys looked down the hall but saw no one there. With that they continued what they were doing.
Demyx ran towards the cafeteria wiping away some of his tears every now and then. Ocasionlally he bumped into student but he didn't care, all he wanted to do right now was forget. Forget everything he just saw and wish everything went back to the way it was before. The way everything was…..without Roxas.
