'It feels so empty…' Roxas thinks as he walks through the new hotel. The strange lighting in the tunnel like hallway casts light circles a bit larger then the size of a quarter.
The blond walks on the freshly vacuumed hallway in the very dim lighting. 'It's weird that this fancy place reminds me of a subway…I don't know why…maybe the shape of the hallway…aw well, at least Sora was nice enough to pay for my room.' Roxas thinks.
Roxas walks in the hotel's shiny, new elevator with his squeaky clean black shoes. 'I so don't want to go to Sora's dinner party. I mean really, does he want to rub it in my face more that he is happily engaged to Riku? Ugh I feel so lame.' Roxas thinks in his empty mind.
The elevator door closes in a swift movement. Roxas feels like an emo James Bond in his suit. The blond presses the button and it lights up in a bright orange colour. Roxas's sleeve goes up a little and exposes the slits on his wrist.
Even though no one else is in the elevator, the blond feels self conscious and tugs down his white sleeve. Roxas hugs himself tightly for protection as tears well up in his eyes. 'I'll be lonely. No angel is going to save me. No one will ever come for me…I'll be alone.' Roxas thinks to himself and makes himself feel worse inside.
His heartbeats but everytime a pulse surges through, he feels like it's sharp glass spikes ripping through his veins. The elevator beeps as the floors go down. 12….11……10….9…8 The elevator abruptly stops at the 8th floor.
Roxas quickly wipes the tears from his eyes and prepares for whatever annoying tourist couple to walk in the elevator. 'Ugh I hope it isn't going to be those loud talking tourists from Idaho that were at breakfast…' Roxas thinks.
The doors slides open and unveil a tall teen with a wild mane of red hair and striking shamrock gem eyes. '…….am I hallucinating?' Roxas thinks to himself but remains with a strict poker face.
The red head walks in and the doors swoosh closed behind him. He seems uninterested about this moment like it is a boring Monday at work. The claustrophobic elevator fills with a scent of spicy cinnamon.
His green jewels for eyes glance at the buttons and see that the ground floor is lit. The silent teen leans against the reflective chrome elevator wall and stares at himself on the wall across from him.
Roxas doesn't look at the other teen but instead gazes at the mirror like wall in front of the mysterious teen. 'He looks so….empty. The way he stares at himself is like he is a ghost and nothing is there.' Roxas thinks.
The elevator bumps a little and jolts down with dangerous speed. The blond loses his footing and knocks into the red head. "Hey! Watch it, shortie!" The teen snaps with extremely high anger in his voice.
'He seems nice.' Roxas sarcastically thinks and the doors open to the lobby. The red teen walks out quickly as if Roxas isn't even there. He hits Roxas's shoulder with his hard elbow and vanishes in the crowd of tourists.
"Jerk." Roxas whispers as automatic hate for the red head flares through his body. The blond strides out of the elevator and the doors close. The elevator's doors slam on Roxas's shoulders then retract.
The blue eyed teen grumbles and makes his way out of the hotel. It's raining. 'Perfect…' Roxas thinks with a sharp bitter tone. The rain soaks him and he stands in it purposely.
The streetlights glitter on the sidewalk in the dark night. Roxas's eyes wander then catch the fiery mane of the pissed off teen. 'Him…' Roxas thinks and he narrows his eyes to a death glare. Suddenly the red teen meets Roxas's eyes and talks to a policeman.
'What?! What is he doing?!' Roxas thinks as the policeman looks shocked at the red head's story. "Shit." Roxas says as the policeman stomps through the puddles on the black sidewalk.
"Don't move." The policeman demands. Roxas's mouth drops open. Speechless. The red head is snickering behind him. "Is this him?" The policeman asks the teen. "Yeah. That's the guy." The devilish teen says with an odd tone.
"I'm going to have to arrest you, sir." The policeman says and takes out his handcuffs. Roxas's mouth hangs open like a fish without air. "For what!?" Roxas exclaims. "For possession of an unauthorized weapon in this county." The policeman says in his 'I-am-an-official' voice.
"What?! This is ridiculous!" Roxas exclaims and the red head grins. 'Fucker…Why does he hate me!?' Roxas thinks. The red head watches the policeman grab Roxas's wrists and his grin seems like he is hiding something then he lowly chuckles at the blond.
The policeman slams Roxas against the police car as he searches Roxas's body for a weapon. The devil smiles as the policeman takes a gun out of Roxas's inner coat pocket. The blond struggles as the policeman handcuffs him but Roxas gives up the fight against the policeman as he shoves Roxas in the backseat of the police car.
The flustered blond stares with his hard cold ice eyes at the devious red head through the rain-stained window. The policeman thanks the teen then gets in the car. 'So what if I was going to shoot Riku. If I have a shitty life then Sora needs to have one too.' Roxas thinks to himself. His eyes slowly close as the police car speeds over the slick black streets.
Roxas wakes up in a jail cell and the florescent lights are beating down on his sleepy eyes. "Please I need to talk to him." Someone says from down the hall. Roxas gets up and peaks through the bars. It's his sister, Naminé, and she is begging the policeman. She is dressed in a dark blue glittery dress that goes down to her feet but there is a large slit going up to the top of her leg.
She pays the bail charge and the policeman unlocks Roxas's jail cell. He glares at Roxas as he unlocks the handcuffs. Naminé thanks the policeman and grabs Roxas's hand. "C'mon Roxas. We are already 30 minutes late." Naminé says and Roxas grumbles something incoherent.
Roxas gets in the passenger seat of her Volkswagen beetle. It looks just like a bumblebee with the yellow and black stripes and the two antennas. She smiles and talks on and on about how happy she is for Sora. Roxas presses his face against the window as he stares out at the wet blurry buildings.
It seemed so fast how he was walking with Naminé into the grand restaurant with someone playing the piano with smooth excellence in the corner. Riku is declaring a toast and Naminé quickly saunters over to the table to admire the couple. Selphie greets her and whispers something in Naminé's ear.
Roxas walks over to the table and sits down next to Demyx. He stares down and eventually the waiter brings him a plate of food. The water teen chatted away to Roxas and Roxas nodded every now and then to Demyx. Riku and Sora completely ignored the blond as they share a large sundae.
Soon enough Roxas gets Naminé to take him to the hotel and she drops him off in front of the hotel. The rain is fiercer and Roxas quickly skips over puddles into the hotel. He gets in the elevator and he traces his fingers over the slits on his wrist. The elevator goes up then stops at the fourth floor. Roxas tugs his sleeve down and the doors open.
The red head makes his appearance again and Roxas makes fists behind him. He stands next to Roxas and the doors close. The fire teen presses the button for the 8th floor and Roxas impatiently waits as the elevator crawls up. He stares at the light button for the 13th floor and the red head turns his face to look at Roxas.
"You got out fast, criminal." He tells Roxas and he grins darkly. Roxas clenches his teeth together. "You better watch out before you get caught again." He jokes to Roxas and Roxas snaps. "What the FUCK is your deal anyway?! Why do you hate me?! I did nothing to you." Roxas yells.
He shakes his head and Roxas as he grins like a Cheshire cat again. "On the contrary, you did everything without realizing it." He says poetically. Roxas looks at the red head with confused eyes. "The name is Axel. Got it memorized?" He says and Roxas watches as the elevator slowly goes to the 6th floor. Roxas notices the strange upsidedown triangles under Axel's eyes.
Axel watches the blond with his cat like emerald eyes. "I'm Roxas." The blond mutters with a pissed off tone in his sweet voice. Axel looks up and he presses the red button on the elevator and it stops. Roxas's eyes widened.
"Hey! You are going to get us in trouble!" Roxas exclaims. Axel smiles and puts his hand to Roxas's smooth skin on his face. "I love troublemakers." Axel says with his singer voice. He presses his maddening sweet lips to Roxas's.
Roxas pushes Axel against the wall and kisses him back roughly. The blond takes off Axel's jacket and finds a gun in Axel's coat pocket. He points it to Axel's head. "Back off, bitch. Unless you really do love trouble, hun." Roxas says viciously. The red head gulps as Roxas keeps the gun to the pyro's head. Axel grins then meows innocently and Roxas puts his finger on the trigger. "Don't fuck with me, fire crotch." Roxas snaps.
