They stare at me withcareful concern,
As I sit and watch the love notes burn.
The ink and promises twist up with smoke.
if you're drowning in love,
Not too long till you
Choke.

"Roxas that's enough beer for you," Axel said grabbing the bottle from his best friend. Who attempted to bit Axel for stealing his comfort, the only thing that brought him joy. Axel pulled his hand of the way just in the nick of time, Roxas' teeth snap together, the boy growled.
"Riku give me another fucking bottle, you douche."
"Hey, just because Kai dumped you –"
The bottle Roxas was holding smashed against the wall, the wall that was seconds away from Riku's head. Axel grabbed his friend's shoulders, he tried to shake Axel off – failing miserably. "Let the fuck go of me you fucking man whore!"
Axel laughed, pulling his friend out the door, biding his farewells. "My drunk friend and I will see you tomorrow Riku," he pushed Roxas out the door. Not hard enough to make a sober man fall, but enough to make a drunk Roxas fall. He fell with an oomph, followed by a slur of curses then followed with vomit, lot's of vomit. "So maybe taking you out to drink wasn't the best idea." Axel said sitting down next to Roxas, he was lying on his stomach.
Roxas whipped his mouth. "Fuck off, Axel."
"I would be Roxy, honest to god, but your tramp of an ex-girlfriend –"
"Don't talk about Kairi like that! She just needs her time…that's all," Roxas pouted and yelled at the same time.
"Broke up with you." Axel lit up a cigarette, ignoring his blonde friend's protests, he sighed laying down on his back. "Denial."
"What?" Roxas looked up at him, in drunken confusion.
"That's what stage you're in, the-my-slut-broke-up-with-me stages, see being a man whore I don't need to worry about those." He laughed, it filled the abandoned street, echoing. Roxas laughed too, because it was true Axel didn't ever have to worry about a girl breaking up with him. Unless she was mental or something, Axel was nachos and Roxas was the cheese – you could always eat nachos alone, but eating cheese alone was gross. Axel had the looks, the lines and the indifference he would never fall in love, not with anyone.
"Hey Axel, you ever fall in love?"
Axel smirked. "Love is for chumps," he flicked his cigarette in the street.
"Yeah I guess I'm just another chump," Roxas sighed planting his forehead into the sidewalk.
"Nah Roxy, you're my best friend, you can't be a chump."
Axel and Roxas were like nachos and cheese, just better together. It didn't matter what hells Roxas went through, as long as he had Axel – it'd be okay.
"Kairi is a fucking slut."
"Bad mouthing the girl, we have entered the second stage, acceptance." He stood up, holding out his hand for Roxas."C'mon blondie, let's go home."
He grabbed it, and Axel helped him up – yeah, it'd be okay.
