Note: This was written because I had another round of Drabble Wars with Saku and she wanted Sora/Axel (for some reason). Her prompt was "Sora/Axel- 'What the heart forgets, the body remembers.'" Hope you enjoy for what it's worth.
Note 2: Also, since I seem to end up writing a lot of KH drabbles because of these challenges with Saku, I'm going to make a drabble collection (similar to my Yu Yu Hakusho and Inuyasha ones) for the KH fandom. I'm sure there will end up being an indefinite number of pieces in the future. You have my dear Saku to thank for that.

"Drabble 1: Axel 1"

Guilt drove Axel forward, but it also held him back. And there was indulgence too. He had to touch Sora. He didn't care if Roxas couldn't remember him anymore. He didn't care that it was Sora he touched…he held…he kissed. Roxas would always be a part of Sora, and Sora would never know the truth. Never see through the lie. Because it was Sora's lie too. It was Roxas Axel loved, would always love, but it was Sora beneath him…

"Ax…el…" Axel's name fell from the man's lips, a half moan, half whisper.

Flesh bare to each other. Heart beats drumming beneath taut skin, beads of sweat adorning their faces, their chests, in places only they would find on and in one another. Palms to palms, hands grasping…both afraid the other would disappear into the shadows. The one left in the light paying the toll.

Alone, they were desperate souls. Together, they could pretend. Pretend they were in love.

Axel wasn't stupid. He knew who Sora's heart belonged to…Riku…and he wished that could bother him. But who was he to cast stones when the man he loved didn't even exist on this plane? Sora's body trapped his most precious treasure, but he would take an imitation.

"Axel?"

"Yeah?"

"I love you," Sora's voice wavered, holding no conviction.

"I know." And it's okay that we lie.
