*AXEL*

He's just so damn sexy when he's mad! I was happy he wanted to do swimming. This could be really fun. I rushed and caught up with him. "This is gonna be fun, huh?" I, for sure, was super excited.

"Yea, I guess." There was zero tone to Roxas' voice.

I sigh. "Are your only emotions anger and emo? Or are you just doing that to bug me?"

"No. I have other emotions. I just don't show them." Again, he was toneless.

"Why not?"

A sigh of irritation escapes him. I try not to laugh. "Because."

"Because why?"

"Look, Axel, can you just let it drop? I don't know! I. Just. DON'T!" He glares at me.

"Okay?!" he demands

"Okay, okay! Sheesh. I'm just curious."

"Why?" He looked over at me, very slight interest in his eyes.

I notice the look, and an idea forms. I smirk devilishly. "Because."

He looks over at me, giving me his full attention. I kind of liked it. "Because why?"

Another smirk crosses my face. "Look, Roxas, can you just let it drop? I don't know. I. Just. Don't." I didn't yell at him, like he yelled at me, however.

He glares at me for a few seconds, then cracks a smile. "Guess I cant get mad at you. Cause I said that to you."

"Thanks. And you should smile more."

He blinks confused. Damn, it just made him hotter. "Why?"

I lean in close to him. "Because, you look hot when you smile, Roxy." I flash a smirk. I watch him go a deep crimson, and turn away. I heard a soft "Thanks" come from him. He even looks cute when he blushes. "Yup!" The conversation ended as we sat on the benches in the pool area. Then, Coach droned on and on and on. I leaned my back up against the wall, stretching. *sigh* I feel a poke and look over to see it was Roxas. He waves shyly, then hands me a piece of paper. I hope the note, smirking.

R - This class is boring.

A - Tell me about it. But, sense you're in this class, it just made it funner.

I see him blush out of the corner of my eye.

R - I see... You can be weird.

A - True. But you're weird too.

R - Why?

A - Because you're talking to a weird person. That's why. Sheesh, Roxas, I thought you were smarter then that!

I watch him try to hide back laughter.

R - True. I never thought of that.

A - Because your not smart like me! Duh!

R - *roles eyes* Please. I have more brains then you ever will.

A - We shall see. When I'm saving your ass from drowning.

R - Please, Axel. Ill be saving yours!

A - Oh I think not, my drowning buddy. *smirks*

R - You're an ass, you know that?

A - Ouch. That cuts me deep, Roxas. REAL deep. I'm gonna go emo now.

R - NO! DON'T!

I smirk evilly.

A - Why do you care?

R - Because... Because... Just don't! Please Axel?!?!

A - Of course not, Roxy. Ill do anything you ask me to. But only for you.

R - Okay. Thanks Axel.

A - No problem, Roxy.

I smile over at him, and he smiles back shyly. Damn, I still cant get over his cuteness!

"Okay," Coach says, " everyone knows the rules. Now, choose your swimming buddy. They will be your buddy for this whole unit."

"Hey. Ill take Roxas." Coach nods at me. He then goes down the line of people, taking buddy names. "You okay, Roxas?"

He nods. "Yea. Cause I'm gonna save your drowning ass." He smirks over at me playfully. This was the first time, I think, I've seen him smirk.

I smirk back. "Hmm... We shall see." With that, the bell rang, and we gathered our stuff. I was getting closer and closer to Roxas. In one day!

*ROXAS*

Next was a free period for the both of us. We sat in the very back, which was nothing like me. Or course, something had slightly been bothering me for a while. I just really wanted to know, so I had to finally ask him. We spoke only loud enough for the other to hear. It wasn't that hard sense the teacher was so loud. "Hey Axel?"

"Yea Roxy?" That's what I wanted to know about.

"Why do you call me Roxy?"

He didn't respond at first. But then, "Do you not like it?"

I shake my head. "No, that's not what I meant. Besides, you didn't answer my question!"

He sighs softly. "I do like your name. Its just, you're kind of special to me. I usually only give nicknames to people I care for." He shrugs slightly. "I think you're special and different and I care for you." He gives me a sheepish smile.

I blush deeply. "Oh. I didn't... know that." I look up at him. "But its only been one day, Axel. How is that even possible?"

"You just struck me differently." Axel grins darkly at me. "You took my breath away."

Again, I blush. "Oh." Wow, I have such a great vocabulary! Gosh!

"You have such a great vocabulary, Roxy." Axel sneers

I somewhat glare at him. "You're a dumb ass, Axel!"

He laughs softly, yet loud enough for me to hear. "Thank you, thank you!"

I role my eyes, sighing. "You're so odd." I shake my head, smiling. Wow, when was the last time I actually smiled?

"Hmm... I got you to smile." He grins evilly at me. I laugh softly, smiling again. "Sweet! I'm on a role! You keep smiling!" This time, I try to deny smiling. It worked... Sort of. That kind of made him sad.

"See? Now I'm not." I tried not to smirk at him.

"Hmm... True. But that was cheating. By the way, what are you doing after this class, Roxy?"

"Well, nothing. I j-" I was quickly cut off.

"Great! We can do something together then." Axel stared at me eagerly with his blazing emerald eyes.

How could I not resist? But... "My older brother is picking me up. Sorry. I really want to, but I cant." I watched disappointment touch his face. My heart fell, then skipped a beat. He looked so innocent when he was sad, which was kind of odd. I couldn't let him stay broken. "Well... Maybe I can get out of it?" I searched his eyes silently, trying to give him some hope.

It worked. His face lit up quickly. "Great! We can go to my locker, then find your brother. Who's your brother?" Curiosity lit his face, the sadness gone from sight. We'll see if he lets me or not. I don't want to see his face sad again, but that just might happen. I sigh softly, before answering.

"Um... Sora. Do you have any siblings?"

"Sora? Doesn't he have gym with us?"

"Yea. He must of skipped. Do you have any siblings?" He seemed to somewhat dodge the question.

I think he finally gave in, cause Axel lets out a sigh. "Yea, I have an older brother." He stopped there.

I stared at him for a few seconds, trying to not snap angrily. "Okay. What's his name?"

". . ." What? Why won't he give me a response?

"Axel? Come on, tell me!" I looked at him with pleading eyes.

"Marluxia."

He didn't look at me, but I could still see the hatred in his eyes. The one word seemed to be filled with that same hate. I didn't like that in him. When the name finally registered in my brain, I stared at him in disbelief. I think my jaw dropped just a bit. "Marluxia is your older brother?" He sighs, nods, then looks away again. "Wow. He's a Senior now, right? He's pretty famous! He's really liked too!"

"Yea, sure."

There was an odd tone to his voice. "What's wrong?" Curiosity and concern pricked at the inside of me.

Before I get an answer, the bell rings. He gets up quickly, and I stared at the bell crossly. Damn bell. "Okay, you coming?" I nod, then follow him to his locker. We didn't speak the whole way there. But he got his old personality back the farther we got from the classroom. "So, did Sora come to school today?"

I nod. "Yea. We moved here with Mom and Dad. New slate cause Sora gets in trouble at some schools." More like every school. I shake my head. "Anyways, I kind of don't want to leave this school."

"I'm sorry. Is there a reason why he does that?" I just shrug in response. Hell if I knew. "Well, I don't want you to leave either." I look up, and right at that second, he kisses me. He then pulls away and smirks at my pout. "We still have to talk with your brother, remember?" I mumble in irritation, and pats my head. That smirk never left his face. God, I sometimes wanted to kill him. "Don't worry, Roxas. Damn." He smirks at me, yet again. How I wanted to swipe that smirk gone.

"Fine. Lets just hurry up and find him!" When Axel closed his locker, I grabbed his hand. I pulled him till I saw Sora up ahead. Releasing my grip on Axel, I run up to Sora. Axel stayed a ways back. "Hey Sora. Why weren't you in gym? Did you go to your other classes?" Worry lit my face quickly. I always was the responsible one out of us two.

"Hey Roxas. I went to gym... Sort of." I glared at him, and opened my mouth to speak. He shook his head, quickly cutting me off. "I signed up for weights. And I did go to my other classes. Don't worry." He ruffles my hair, smiling at me. He then gestures forward for us to walk. "Anyways, ready to go?"

I bit my bottom lip, not looking up at him. "Actually, I'm staying after."

I peeked up at Sora, to see him blink in confusion. "Why?"

Looking up fully at him, I grew even more nervous. "Um... I'm getting help on the pieces of homework I missed." We had come in, in the middle of the year.

"What homework?" His eyes narrowed at me dangerously.

"Well, we were assigned homework. I need help to make sure I pass the quiz Thursday." Wow, my words are totally clashing with each other! Dammit!

He just stared at me. He knew what a bad liar I was. "Liar. Tell me the truth." I opened my mouth, but nothing came out. I stood there, dumb founded. "Well?" He was starting to grow impatient.

Right then, Axel showed up. "Ready to study, Roxas?" I was so happy to see him there. I let out a held breath that I didn't even know I was holding. I was even happier when he didn't call me Roxy. That might have been really bad. Sora would be even more pissed then what he was now.

Sora stared at Axel. Well, it was more like he was staring up at him, but whatever. "So, you are studying?"

Axel nods, smirking. "That's right." There was a slight mocking note to his tone. "You want him to fail? Fine. Not my problem." He shrugs nonchalantly, the smirk never fading.

"No! I don't want to fail!" I really didn't, so it sounded real. That, at least, I was able to do just find. Axel had a hard time not laughing at me. That jerk.

Sora glares at Axel. I could already tell they wouldn't get along very well. "Fine." He then looks at me, his eyes hardening. I did my best not to cringe away from his icy glare. "When are you getting home? How are you getting home?"

"Um..." Good questions. I sure as hell didn't have the answers to those.

"He'll get home around 6:00. My mom could drive us." He smirks mockingly. Axel seemed to have an odd glint in his eyes, that I didn't understand. I let it slide. He had all the answers, making it hard for Sora to find an excuse not to let me go. Wow, Axel sure had a way with words. And that's probably how he hooked me in. I shook my head, trying hard to keep my mouth shut. I didn't want to ruin what Axel had done with Sora.

"Fine. Ill see you later, Roxas." Sora gave one final glare to Axel, then stalked away.

When Sora was officially gone, I whipped around to glare at Axel. Now, I could be as mad as I wanted to him. "What the hell?! Did you have to act like that?!"

Axel laughs at first. When he gets a look at how serious I looked, he lets out an irritated sigh. He even rolled his eyes. "Oh come on, Roxy. Its just a little fun and games. Besides, you're still with me. Don't sweat." He leans down and kisses my forehead. "Okay?"

I frown at first, but then nod. It was getting harder for me to stay mad at him. Damn. "Okay."

"Good!" He takes my hand and starts to walk off grounds. We walk till we get to an ice-cream stand in the park. Axel orders us sea salt ice-cream, and we sit under a tree. It was quiet between us for a little bit. The only noise was the wind in the trees, and the sound of us licking out ice-creams. We watched people go by, as well as nature. I decided to finally break this slightly awkward silence.

"Axel?"

"Hmm?" He had already finished his ice-cream. Now, he was lying on the grass with his arms behind his head... Eyes closed. He looked totally relaxed and hot.

"Besides Marluxia," I watched him stiffen slightly, "do you have any other siblings?" I really did want to know. I knew mostly about Marluxia, how he was a star quarter back. How he was captain of the gardening club; he really did love flowers. He was popular among everyone . The teachers loved him and used him as a role model for all the other students. And that he had a younger brother, who I found out was Axel. Everyone loved him, but Axel didn't seem to.

"Nah. I kind of wish, but I don't." He shrugs lightly, as if he wasn't really a big deal.

"Besides Sora, any other siblings?" He opens his eyes to look up at me.

"Um... I also have a sister."

"Oh?" He sits up and stares at me with more curiosity.

"Yea, she's a few minutes older."

Axel roles his eyes, sighing. "Can I have a name, Roxas?"

I sigh. "Her name is..." I didn't really finish the sentence. I just stared forward, kind of blankly.

Out of the corner of my eye, I could see Axel rolling his eyes again. "Come on, Roxy!" His tone had a whine to it. "I tell you stuff!"

That's what broke my irritation nerve. I glared at him with venom in my eyes. "That's a lie! You wouldn't tell me what's wrong when I brought up Marluxia!" My voice sounded like I was kind of growling. It was good. It suited the anger in my voice quite well.

He flinches, then looks away. "That's different. I only asked for a name."

I couldn't believe it. I just shook my head, glaring forward again. "Fine. Her name is Namine, okay?"

He doesn't respond at first. He was silent between us for a few seconds, before he finally broke that painful silence. "Okay..."

I could tell I hit him deep, and that I had hurt him. Made me feel terrible. "Axel?"

". . ."

"Tell me. Why do you hate him, but everyone else doesn't?" I knew he knew who I meant... Marluxia.

". . ."

Still no answer. I felt like he was giving me the silent treatment, and I hated it.

"Axel?" He finally looked down at the ground. "Axel? Look at me!" He looked up, forcefully of course. "What's wrong?"

He stared at me for a few seconds, letting out a sigh. He stared forward, then looked back over at me. Before he can answer, a voice calls to us. "Yo!" I felt irritation boil in me again, as I recognized that voice.

Demyx. I'm gonna kill him!

*AXEL*

Thank you, Demyx! I look over to see Roxas frowning and irritated. I laugh softly, then a bit harder as he shoots a death glare at me. I then look over at Demyx to see some one behind him. "Yo, Demyx! Who's he?" The guy looked really emo, no joke. Kind of weird to see an emo person with Demyx.

"Oh. This is Zexion. Zexion, this is Axel and his buddy Roxas!" Demyx smiles happily at Zexion. Zexion just waved. That's exactly what Roxas did. Wow, they are both so enthusiastic. Demyx and I both role our eyes. "So Axel, how's it going?"

"Oh its going, Demyx." I grin at him, then shake my head. "Nah, its fine. You?"

Demyx sat down, pulling Zexion down as well. Zexion sighs, then stares off into space. Roxas looks down at the ground, plucking at grass blades. "Great, Axel! Thanks! So, whys Roxas with you?" Curiosity pricked in his eyes.

"We're just... Hanging out." I smirk at Demyx. Then I mouthed so only Demyx sees, 'Your boyfriend?' Demyx blushes, then nods. I chuckle. I knew it. Demyx and I have been friends for a looong time. I knew him very well by now.

Soon, I felt a soft poke in my side. "What's funny, Axel?"

Ah, Roxas. My sweet, innocent Roxas. "Nothing Roxy." I grin slyly over at him.

"You're confusing." he mutters, glaring

"Okay. Cause you aren't!" I chuckle darkly, then wink at him.

"Well, you're more..." He slightly went red at my wink.

I chuckle even harder. "Anyways, why are you two here?"

"Demyx saw you, and wanted to say 'Hi.'." Roxas and I glance at each other for a split second. We were both thinking the same thing. "How is energetic Demyx, with an emo guy named Zexion?"

"Yup! We said our 'Hi's.'. Now its good-bye! See ya later, Axel. Roxas." Demyx took Zexion's hand, and they both wave. Then, they walked away together. Demyx was chattering happily, and Zexion just listened in silently. What an odd couple.

"Wow, I never imaged Demyx with a guy like Zexion." Roxas shook his head.

I shrug. "Yea well, I have no idea. But he seems happy. And that Zexion guy sort of seemed happy." I grin, as I watched them disappear out of my line of sight.

Roxas laughs. "Yea, it was kind of hard to tell!" He grins over at me, and I smile back happily.

"Would your family get mad if I brought you home late?"

Roxas bit his lower lip in thought. Damn he's hot. "Well, maybe. You said 6:00, but I kind of wish you asked for later."

"Ahahahaha! And you say I'm bad?" I shake my head, trying to stop laughing.

He blushes and smiles sheepishly. "Well..." He was at a lost for words. It only made him more adorable as he tried to come up with something to say.

"Don't worry, Roxas." I chuckle out I grab him and pull him closer to me. "Maybe we can push time..." I smirk down at him. He blushes deep crimson. He wraps his arms around me neck; then leans up and kisses me. His tongue pressed, demanding to enter my mouth. I parted my lips, allowing him entrance. His tongue examined the inside of my mouth eagerly. I chuckle and pull back. His face went from happy to pouting. I laugh a little harder. "Damn, Roxas, so demanding. Eager as well." I smirk as he blushes again.

"S-sorry!" He looks down, redder.

"Nah. Don't worry about it, Roxy." I tilt his head up so he's looking at me. "I didn't mind." I kiss him softly on the lips, moving down to his neck. He shivers in pleasure, running his fingers through my hair. I smirk, biting his ear playfully. He seemed to like that.

"Nnnn... Axel... D-don't stop..." Roxas whines.

I pull back slightly, then kiss him. With that, I pull back again, and smirk. His face was completely priceless. It went from blissful, to pure pouting. He even had slight annoyance in his eyes.

"Hey!" he whines.

*heh* "That's enough for now, Roxas."

"No, its not!" He glares at me, the pout deepening.

I could resist chuckling at him. I then grin evilly at him. "Sorry, Roxas. That's a no."

"But why?!" he demands

I had to think about it for a moment, but only to piss him off further. I lift my hand, so he could see it in front of his face. Holding up my pointer finger, I started to list off. Each time I said something, another finger would go up. "One, because we're in a public place. Two, I still have to get you home on time so we can hang out more. And three..." I lean in close and smirk, whiling holding his chin in my hand, "I pleasure you too much."

Roxas huffs angrily. Apparently, he didn't agree or even like my reasons. "Liar. You don't pleasure me enough." he growls He crosses his arms over his chest, glaring down.

I pull him close, and lift up his face so I could kiss him. He took it willingly. I force my tongue into his mouth, exploring. My right hand ran through his soft, blonde hair. My left hand went under his shirt. I ran my finger tips up and down his spine, making him shiver in more pleasure. I pulled back, kissing him up and down the neck.

"Nnnn... Oh Axel... Please... don't s-stop... Axel..." Roxas tilts his head back slightly, running his hands through my hair. He tried to pull as close as he could to me. I smirk against his skin, then bite him playfully. Roxas groans in pure bliss. I had him right where I wanted him, but I had other plans.

I smirk, then pull back. "Okay. You got what you wanted, Roxy. Pleasure time was over." We were both breathing a little heavy.

Roxas frowns, then opens his mouth. "But Ax-"

I put my hand over his mouth, sighing. "Hey, I have you more. You'll live for now, Roxy." I smirk, then remove my hand. Then I leaned down at kissed him tenderly. "Okay?"

He growls for a second, but nods. "Yes, okay."

I smiles, patting his head. "Good boy. Now, what time is it?"

Roxas pulls out the Gravity cell phone. "Its... 2:00 right now." He looked up at me as he put the phone away.

"Sweet. We still have time." I grab his hand, pulling him up. "Where do you want to go?" I grin at him happily.

Roxas blushes slightly, staring at the ground. "Can we... Go to your place?"

"Um..." Okay, Marluxia shouldn't be home. And Mom will be out with her friends. I nod and smile. "Okay, lets go!"
