Chapter 1: THE MOVIES
Disclaimer: Otaku Teme DOES NOT own Kingdom Hearts…as much as she would wish too.
Hi, my name is Axel Kasai. I am eighteen years old right now and in my final year of high school. I have a pretty normal life, good friends, interesting job, and as always, an infatuation with somebody at school. The only bad thing? It was another guy…and he was straight. You see, I wasn't the average male high school student. No, I had to be gay. Not only did I have to be gay, I had to fall in love with my very straight best friend; Roxas.
Roxas…he was the epitome of perfection. Baby-soft tan skin, the brightest blue eyes I have ever seen and his sunshine blonde hair stood up in perfect spikes on the side of his head. To me it made him look completely adorable. Half the female population and probably a good portion of the male population at the school wanted to get into his baggy jeans.
It was a miracle I had survived this long without jumping the kid. I was even more surprised with my endurance now that I was seated in a dark theatre with nobody around me and the blonde god. We were seeing an older movie so the theatre was pretty empty. It was some thriller that I hadn't bothered to learn the name of, too excited at the prospect of going with the blue eyed angel to a public place.
The movie started shortly after we had sat down and I felt Roxas shove his small bag of candy in my lap.
"Axel, can you hold that?"
"Yeah, sure, Roxy"
He flashed me a quick smile before turning his attention to the huge screen in front of him. I looked down at my lap and chuckled lowly in my throat. This kid loved sweets. Inside of the clear plastic bag were thousands of tiny chocolates. I felt my teeth ache just thinking about the damage it could do. I ran my hand over my rough red spikes and turned my attention to the screen again.
Halfway through the movie I had grown bored. The main character was a ditz, even I had figured out the murderer by now. I looked around the theatre bored out of my mind. I suppose that was why I didn't notice the outstretched hand that belonged to Roxas, who was calling for his candy that sat in my lap.
I jumped out of my seat when I felt the small hand that could only belong to my best friend hit my inner thigh.
"R-Roxas?"
"Axel…where's the candy?"
I blushed furiously and was glad the dark theatre hid my flushed face.
"Axeeeeel, give me the damn candy!"
I let out a groan as Roxy's hand hit dangerously close to a certain part of my anatomy that would be all too willing for Roxas's touch. I shuddered before I realized what was going on and shoved the candy into his hands. I jumped out of my seat and looked down at Roxas who was staring at me curiously.
"Ax? What's the matter…and um…can I tell you something?"
"U-Um…I have to pee!"
I yelled out as I bolted out of the dark room and into the brightly lit hallways. I looked around before spotting a washroom. I walked over to it briskly and slammed my hands down onto the cold cement counter. I ran some cold water and looked at my flushed face in the mirror. I shook my head and let out a deep breath. I reached in and splashed some of the refreshing water onto my burning hot face. I smoothed my hair out on top of my head and turned my head in different angles to inspect the normality of my face. When I was satisfied with how I looked I took one last deep breath before exiting the bathroom.
When I came back into the bathroom Roxas was happily munching away on the bag of assorted candies. I blushed lightly at the memory of his hand and shook my head to clear my thoughts of unwanted images. I slowly made my way up the stairs to the seat where my love was sitting. I reached my chair quickly and relaxed as Roxas flashed me a smile before looking back towards the movie screen. I sighed and then perked up as I remembered that he had something to ask me before.
"Hey Roxy"
"Yeah"
"What were you going to ask me before?"
I turned to face him and in the dim light I could see his cheeks flush a small showing on his pale cheeks. I raised one brow before smirking internally at how cute he looked blushing. I shook my head lightly and turned my full attention back to him. I saw him bite his lip from the light that came from the large screen in front of us.
"Roxy…?"
He blushed deeper and started playing with the candy in his fingers.
"W-Well…um…"
I furrowed my eyebrows and went to place a hand on his shoulder.
"Roxy? Are you okay?"
I saw him look down and his face flamed before he threw my hand off of his shoulder.
"I-I HAVE TO PEE!"
He bolted up from his seat and ran down the stairs to the exit of the small theatre room. I saw him trip a few times and was sorely tempted to follow him and find out the cause of his outburst. I looked down around me and noticed all the suspicious looks and the scattered candy on the floor. What the hell?
When Roxas came back he mumbled a small sorry and the movie ended shortly after. I shrugged off his odd behaviour and looked at his downcast expression. I bit my lip; I didn't like to see Roxas down. I racked my brain for possibly ways to cheer him up. We were walking out to my car when I saw a young boy begging his mother for Ice cream. That's it!
"Hey Roxy."
"Yeah?"
"You want to get a sea-salt ice cream?"
I looked down at him to see his response. I wasn't surprised to a big smile stretch across his face. His eyes twinkled with glee.
"Could we really?"
I chuckled but nodded,
"Why not?"
I shrugged and smiled. He let out a gleeful noise and scanned the area for ice cream. I used the excuse of directing him into the direction of his favourite treat to grab his tiny hand and pull him towards the vendor.
When I glanced down to see his reaction he was humming happily, completely oblivious to my ulterior motives. I bit the inside of my cheek. Now I felt guilty. I looked down at our conjoined hands; my hand completely enveloped his small tan hand. I sighed mentally and let go of the tiny blonde but continued walking with his towards his beloved ice cream.
"Hey. What'll it be?"
The young woman working had a dollop of strawberry ice cream on her apron. She had clear blue eyes and short dark blue hair. Her name tag read AQUA. As I pondered the uniqueness of the name Roxas was ordering.
"Hi. I'll have sea-salt ice cream please!"
I smiled at the grin he was wearing
"How many there?"
The girl flashed Roxas a flirty smile and I frowned. I knew Roxas didn't notice it…he never did.
"Two!"
"Ah, are you ordering for me too, Roxy?"
He turned to look at me if I had just arrived
"Oh…was I supposed to?"
I couldn't help it. I barked out a laugh at the innocent look on his face. He was going to eat two…by himself? He huffed and puffed his cheeks out.
"Heeey! Don't make fun of me Axel!"
I slowed my laughter down to a chuckle and looked at the girl who was holding out two Ice-creams.
"Here you go."
She gave Roxas a sweet smile. She turned to look at me.
"What are you having?"
Her tone completely changed. She turned bitter and rude.
"Just one."
"Sea-salt?"
"Yes."
Our conversation was really short. Roxas didn't notice…he was too busy molesting his ice-cream. Im not joking…I swear he was giving the damn thing the time of its life. Apparently it wasn't too shabby either, by the sounds he was making anyways.
I turned back to the girl and she shoved my order at me. I took it firmly and reached back for my wallet.
"$9.40"
I grabbed the appropriate change and slammed it onto the metal counter. Roxas still didn't notice. That Ice-cream must have been damn right orgasmic for him not to hear that slam.
The girl looked offended but I shrugged her off. Bitches get stiches.
I finally turned to look at Roxas, he had already ate the first one, and was sucking on the second. I felt my face flame as I saw him take the whole damn stick into his mouth. He was so innocent. So naïve.
I slapped myself on the cheek lighty. Stop thinking like that! I sighed deeply and tapped him on the shoulder. He peered up at me…ice cream still in mouth…and blinked curiously.
"Wanna go home?"
He nodded and grabbed the end of the stick and pulled the froze treat from his mouth.
"Sounds like a plan."
I smiled slightly in relief…until he started sucking on the damn ice cream again! I resigned myself to an awkward car ride with high sexual tension.
We drove down the highway at a moderate speed. It wasn't rush hour. The roads weren't deserted either though. I had both hands on the steering wheel. I had devoured my ice-cream a long time ago. Roxas…was another story. He was just finishing his treat. He sucked on the little bit of blue that was on the end. I had to look away. I knew I would do something drastic and stupid if I didn't.
Once we got off the highway, I had calmed down and Roxas was finally done his ice-cream. We were just pulling up to the blonde's house. That he shared with his 4 brothers, his oldest brother's boyfriend, and his sister. He still had the stick in his mouth but he wasn't doing anything…thank god.
I put the car into park and idled in the drive while roxas's unbuckled his seat belt and stepped out.
"Thanks Axe. See you at School?"
I nodded.
"Of course. Who could resist me?"
He laughed before waving and walking to the door. I stayed to make sure he got in. He did and then I pulled away, beaming from the day.
I had it bad.
Aha! First chapter is done! :D So, Please leave a review! Thanks!
