College Members
"Can you stop playing your sitar for at least 30 minutes!" yelled Axel, walking into Demyx's room which had papers all over.
The sitar-player laughed and commented, "You really think its that annoying? To me it is soothing.."
The red-head college student shook his head and said, "I am trying to get ready while reading for the major exam in stupid Kolkey's class."
"Whatever.." sighed Demyx, putting his sitar in his case and picking up the scattered papers.
Ever since Roxas had suggested that Demyx should stay in the same apartment as them it has been terrible. First of all Axel barely knew Demyx other than that he had two classes with him. Roxas knew the sitar-player from classes and working with him at Cappichino's, a coffee place. The red-head didn't dare want to work there since Larxene was the manager, Larxene was just plainly a cruel person. Axel watched as Demyx picked up his papers and put them into his backpack. Behind him Roxas stood, all set for his 12:00 History Class with Axel.
"Axel, you've got to get ready, class starts in an hour." said the blonde, "I'm going to stop by Capphicino's ok? If you get ready soon than maybe I will buy you some coffee." the red-head nodded as Roxas ran out the door.
"Hey..," commented Demyx, desperately trying to recall something, "Haven't you studied at all for Kolkey's test?"
To tell you the truth Axel didn't know how Demyx passed any of his classes, "No dur, stupid. Why am I studying in the morning then?"
The sitar-player smirked, obviously not taking Axel's comment to heart. The red-head turned and walked towards his room, forcing himself to concentrate.Axel put on a red t-shirt, black pants and red-striped shoes. Hopefully he had studied enough 10 minutes later, when he was all ready he took his backpack and ran out the door towards his car. Ever since he had turned 16 Axel wanted this type of car, a Red Lincoln. The red-head got into his car and turned it on, the car purred as it started up, backing out of his parking lot he looked at the clock, 11:37. Time to visit Larxene.
"Hey beautiful, how are you today?" teased Axel, as he walked into Cappichino's.
Larxene scowled and replied, "Why dont you shove it, Axel?"
The red-head laughed, "My, I see that your in a not so good mood."
"I was just fine until you came." grumbled Larxene, as she got a customer a cappuchino. In the back Axel could see Roxas and Demyx working, probably sorting all the ingredients back there. Axel strolled and stood in back of Lexeaus, a strong built man who the red-head had seen around campus sometimes. Once he had asked Roxas about who he was and the blonde said he supposibly just got out of prison. If he just got out of the slammer it was probably a good idea to stay away from him. Lexeaus grabbed his cappuchino and drank it, walking over to a table for one.
"Can I have some Decaffeinated coffee?" asked Axel, smirking that Larxene had to carry out his orders.
Larxene sighed and without saying another word, got Axel his coffee and said, "4.99."
The red-head took out his wallet from his back-pocket and grabbed out a 5 dollar bill. Larxene took the money and put it in the cash register, Axel stood there waiting for his change to come. After about a minute the red-head realized that she wasn't going to give him the change back.
"Can I have my penny?" said Axel.
Larxene smiled and replied, "Sorry, your donation will go towards my rent."
"Is that even legal?" asked the red-head.
"Probably not." smirked Larxene, turning and going into the back room.
Axel walked over to a table for one and stared out the window, looking out at his History Class building. Hopefully the exam wouldn't be that hard, maybe what the other College Grads said wasn't true, maybe it was easy. The red-head looked at his watch and saw that it was time to start heading towards that fateful building, out of the corner of his eye he saw Roxas get off his shift and walk out the door.
Running to catch up Axel said to Roxas, "Do you know if that exam is that hard?"
Roxas shrugged and said, "I'm sure you'll do fine Axel."
"I know your just saying that." muttered the red-head as they entered the room sitting in the front.
Mrs.Kolkey passed out the exam paper to Roxas and Axel. Quickly Axel analyzed the question.
Where did Marco Polo lay his great expedition?
What does "Sieg Heil" actually mean?
When did World War 2 offcially end?
Silently Axel cursed at himself for not studying the following night. He had no idea what any of these questions meant. He didn't even know who Marco Polo was. 10 minutes later and the red-head still couldn't think of any answers, so he just guessed. After his handful of guessed answers he turned it into the teacher who looked at it and put it on her desk to look at later. Axel slumped into his seat and took the notes that were on the board, looking over at Roxas to get a signal of whether or not he thought he did good on the exam. When class was finally done Axel told Roxas, "I'm going to the bar, I totally bombed that test."
"I'll come with you." offered Roxas, putting on his backpack, "But can I bring a friend?"
"Like who?" asked the red-head, looking around at the people that might be coming with him and Roxas.
"Zexion." said the blonde, waiting for Axel's answer.
"Who? That grey-haired loser? Are you sure he actually drinks?"
Roxas shrugged and replied, "I think so."
"Fine." said the red-head, watching Roxas run over to Zexion and ask him if he wants to go to the bar. Axel saw the man nod so he came to join the two, "You guys can go in my car, ok?"
Zexion and Roxas nodded and they all headed towards Axel's car.
The car-ride was uneventful as Zexion was constantly reading and Roxas looking out the car window. Axel pulled into the bar and took off his seat-belt, the other two taking off their seat-belts as well. Thankfully the red-head noticed Zexion leave his book as they walked into the bar. Today it was pretty full, it was only usually full when it was singing Thursday, the day where drunks can sing their heads off. The disco balls spun around in the dark, as it reflected off any other lights in there. Inside the bar it was pitch dark, even though it was light outside, the bar's windows had black shades so any light that came in was only from the people who walked through the door. The three walked over to the seats where Axel ordered for them, "3 beers please."
The bartender stifled a nod and got their drinks, the red-head slided him a 5 dollar bill in doing so.
"So, Zexion. Come to get a drink often?" asked Axel, as he slided the beers to Zexion and Roxas.
The gray-haired man shook his head and replied, "No. My second time here actually."
The red-head expected as much to come out of that man's mouth. The guy never goes to the bar, man did Roxas pick a dud this time. Axel took a
gulp of his beer and saw Zexion slur it around in its cup probably checking if its poisinous. "Come on live a little Zexion."
Zexion seemed to hear Axel because at that moment he took a drink of his beer. While Roxas and Zexion talked Axel got himself another drink, and another, and another, until he got up to 5 beers and 3 shots of tequila. Dizzly the red-head got out of his chair and walked towards the singing stage. Roxas stood up and yelled, "Axel what are you doing!"
"I'm.. ngh. Going to sing!" yelled Axel at the blonde, wobbling to the stage. Once he was on it he said, "Blue by Eiffel 65, please.."
"Crap." cursed Roxas, looking over at Zexion who seemed to be occupied by watching Axel try to move with the sound of the music.
"This song is dedicated to- hic. My buddy's buddy, Zexion! Now whenever I say 'I' I actually mean, Zexion, ok?
Yo listen up here's a story
About a little guy that lives in a blue world, thats you Zexion!
And all day and all night and everything he sees
Is just blue like him inside and outside
Blue his house with a blue little window
And a blue corvette
And everything is blue for him and hisself
And everybody around
Cos he ain't got nobody to listen to
I'm blue da ba dee da ba die...
I have a blue house with a blue window.
Blue is the colour of all that I wear.
Blue are the streets and all the trees are too.
I have a girlfriend and she is so blue.
Blue are the people here that walk around,
Blue like my corvette, it's standing outside.
Blue are the words I say and what I think.
Blue are the feelings that live inside me.
I'm blue da ba dee da ba die...
I have a blue house with a blue window.
Blue is the colour of all that I wear.
Blue are the streets and all the trees are too.
I have a girlfriend and she is so blue.
Blue are the people here that walk around,
Blue like my corvette, it's standing outside.
Blue are the words I say and what I think.
Blue are the feelings that live inside me.
I'm blue da ba dee da ba die...
Inside and outside blue his house
With the blue little window and a blue corvette
And everything is blue for him and hisself
And everybody around cause he aint got
Nobody to listen to
I'm blue da ba dee da ba die...
I'm blue."
at the end of his song, Axel was fighting to stay concious but failed as he fell off stage.
