Hey everyone! I'm alive! :D I'm sure you're all glad to hear that, and I am terribly sorry I am only posting this. However, this was originally for my English class; the assignment was to include fifteen selected words from The Great Gatsby in a two-page story. Therefore, this will be incredibly short compared to my other works, and being the otaku I am, this was birthed. Anyways, I will try to have more up soon.

As always, dedicated to my lovely flaming bond.
Without you, the importance of my life would be infinitesimal.
I couldn't do it. How could I? After all those dear memories, it would be near impossible for me to feign hate towards the youngest member. Not that I can truly feel anyways. As Xemnas keeps drilling into our heads, we have no hearts; we are only apathetic creatures, unfit of the worlds upon which we walk.
However, that hadn't made sense to me after I met him. Clad in our black coats, relaxing on the clock tower made me feel real. Complacency settled over me while we chatted, my muscles no longer tense but languid, realizing for once that I didn't have to be on guard, nothing there would hurt me. The constant sensation of fighting left me as soon as the blond boy sat contiguous to me, nibbling that delicious blue ice cream. Everything was perfect.
Maybe I was supercilious for believing that. Too soon did our peaceful happiness come to a strident halt. She interposed us, quickly destroying our joy so deftly that I almost admire it. It was her doing, I'm sure of it. I read from Roxas's diary about all the intimations she gave him. How were we so blind? All that time we believed her to be our friend. Looking back, she must have felt as little as Zexion's infinitesimal heart could.
I was stupid to think his feelings were reciprocal to mine. I have always ended up alone; nothing good lasts forever. Knowing this, I should have avoided the attractive boy. We were magnets though, it was impossible to fight the pull. So we came together, feeling alive on the facet of a clock tower.
Now, my life is wan again. He will never remember me. And I can't bear that heartbreak. I run a hand through my red hair before I pull the hood of my cloak up, accompanied by a whispered, "Goodbye Roxas. I love you."
I walk into the portal in front of me, the swirling darkness showing the turmoil of my non-existent heart. I know this encounter will be our last; it can only end in death. At least it will be from the hands of a lover.
~-~
Hope you guys enjoyed that. Whether it was Axel or Roxas that died is up to you. ^w^
Anyways please review, favorite, etc., etc.
May every day of the rest of your lives be filled with the happiness felt upon that clock tower, and none of the sadness.
