Disclaimer: I do not own anything of Kingdom Hearts.

A/N: I have to post this up before I loss my guts. So, This is a drabble I wrote during my exam. Yeah, that's true that I had half an hour left aftering checking the paper twice, I suddenly got this scene in my mind so I tried to capture it, scribbling it on the question paper. I'm just starting to play Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days and I'm still not very familiar with the characters yet I hope I had caught the feel of writing stories about them... This is nothing big, I know, but hope you would pay a quick read! :)

It was sunset again.

I was sitting at the edge of the tower in Twilight Town as usual.

Xion, sitting next to me, seized the tip end of the Popsicle I handed to her and whispered 'Thanks' rather softly.

I wondered if I had the same expression as Xion's when Axel did the same to me.

Idly my eyes wandered from the sky-blue icestick to the vermilion retreating sun.

How I wished to see the vibrant flame of red again.

"Roxas," called Xion, pulling the edge of my cloak gently. I turned to her and she smiled mildly. " Your ice's melting."

I followed her gaze to the melting ice in my hand.

Gelatinous liquid slowly flew along the wooden stick to my fingers, feeling freezy cool.

" Yeah, maybe..." I whispered, rather to myself. I felt the questioning look of Xion but I silently ignored it. My eyes leveled at the melting ice which was held high by myself. Orange flames from the sun seemed like licking and melting it.

I realized my shield of ice would melt only when Axel was beside me.

Please come back... Axel.
