Author's note: This is how I would see a relationship between Roxas and Axel being, violent of course, as opposed to how others think it would kind and sweet. Also this is my first fan-fiction so I encourage constructive criticism. On to the story. :)


"Roxas came to visit me one day and the next thing I knew, I was breaking his boyfriend's chain of memories and I manipulated Roxas' memories as well." She looked up from the floor to the chocolate haired boy. He smiled, a big goofy one, reassuring her.

"Go on." He encouraged.

"Roxas may be gay, but that doesn't mean he deserves to be abused." She frowned. "He's my twin. I had to protect him."

"I know Namine," The chocolate boy placed a hand on Namine's shoulder. "He was my best friend and his boyfriend, Axel, was good underneath it all."

"Yeah, Sora." Namine scoffed at the mention of Axel's name. "It all started with a late night visit."


Namine was out with Kairi, trying to get her mind off her brother's visit a few days ago.

"Just relax, Namine. We are going to have fun tonight." Kairi insisted as they were driving to her favorite club.

"Yeah, Kai. I'm trying. It's just..." Namine sighed. She really had no desire to go, as Kairi had called it, "partying".

"Nami. Roxy can take care of himself." Kairi replied. "I don't know the whole story but whatever's going on, he'll be okay. He's smart, he'll get out if he needs to." She smiled.

"Okay..." Namine replied, not convincing.

"Okay!" Kairi's grin grew. "Party!" She exclaimed, turning up the radio!

"Party!" Namine agreed, halfheartedly.

Kairi's attempts at comforting Namine had fallen short, and her mind drifted to when Roxas had dropped by her house unexpectedly.


Roxas showed up at Namine's house in the middle of the night. Namine wasn't exactly sure when, all she knew was, it was LATE, and she was trying to sleep. She made her way to the door and opened, surprised to see her twin on the other side.

"Roxas?" She yawned.

"I need a place to stay for the night Nami." He begged, panting slightly, as if he had been in a rush. Roxas looked over his shoulder every few moments. "Please, just let me in." He pleaded. Namine looked at him for a moment, still half asleep, before realizing what her twin was saying. Then, without delay, Namine cleared the doorway, Roxas scurried in, and she closed and locked the door behind him.

He made his way to the couch and sat down, frazzled. Namine noticed this and went to the kitchen, making some instant coffee and brought a cup to Roxas. Only now had she really observed Roxas' appearance. He was quite disheveled. His arms were covered with purple splotches and hands were shaking as he held the cup of coffee. His lower lip was cut and swollen. Her twin's cheeks were red as if they were to bruise and his right eye was puffy and becoming purple.

"What happened?" she asked, placing her own coffee down and taking a seat by him. She cradled the right side of his face in her hand. They were close, no matter how bad something was, they always told one another.

"It's usually not this bad." He let out in a whisper. "He's only a little rough most times." He exhaled deeply, trying to keep from crying. "I probably did something wrong and he found out." Roxas had avoided eye contact until he said this next phrase. "I deserved it."

Namine fought back her own tears as horror overtook her. "Roxas, how long has this been going on?" She asked, trying to control her breathing.

"Six months," he closed his eyes and exhaled deeply. "on and off," He added. "One day Axel came home murmuring something about Lea and took me." His cheeks flushed a bit.

Namine's eyes widened as she realized what he meant. "Oh." She said and bit her lip.

"He was always a bit rough." Roxas continued his story. "but now…" His voiced faltered a bit. "I could feel the darkness in his heart. The rage, agony, and hate." He put his coffee down, having not taken a sip. "Can I..?" He was still shaking. "Just sleep now?"

"Yeah." She said, patting his hair. "I'll be here all night. Just sleep."
