Xion
The water was soothing – well as soothing as hot water could be on fresh bruises – on my skin. The heat relaxing away the tension and a little bit of pain from the tender whelps on my arms and back.
Gingerly I touched my cheek, hissing at the small lump that had began to form there.
Turning off the water I snatched a towel off the bar, not really caring who it belonged to and began to dry myself off. Wrapping the towel around myself I stepped over to the sink and looked in the mirror.
I look like shit.
I did, dark rings had formed under dead blue eyes. The color all but faded from my skin. From looking at me you would think I was the dead one and not...
~o~
It's not fair! Why does it have to be you?! You've never done anything wrong! So why do you have to die? I asked tears streaming down my cheeks.
"I guess this is just how it is." Roxas replied looking out the hospital rooms window.
"What about the surgery? The doctors say there's a chance it could save you!" I told him, more pleading than anything.
"It's only a small chance, there's no guarantee I would live." He responded sullenly.
We sat there in mostly silence, him quietly consoling me as I cried.
~o~
Shooting one last glare at the mirror I snatched the door open and padded down the hallway to my room, shutting the door behind me.
I opened my dresser grabbed some underwear a pair of socks. Pulling each on I stepped over to the closet, sliding it open grabbing a pair of faded black jeans and a blue and gray t shirt. After sliding the shirt over my head, I yanked the pants snatching my phone off my bed and sliding it into my back pocket.
Where the hell are my shoes..?
Opening the closet again I searched for them, deciding to check under the bed instead after only finding discarded toys that had long been forgotten about. After a few minutes of shuffling and moving random things around under my bed I managed to find my tattered black converse; smiling when I saw the little fireballs Lea had drawn on the white part that covered the toes. Pulling them on I grabbing my jacket and bounding down the stairs.
"Where are you going?" Vexen's voice echoed from his office. Frozen in place I debated running back up stairs before answering him.
"Just..out." I responded rather meekly, heart pounding in my chest.
"Fine. Keep your phone on and don't travel too far, I may need you for something." He called sounding preoccupied. Letting out a sigh of relief I shrugged my coat on and darted outside, hoping he wouldn't change his mind.
Where am I going to go? What was I thinking?
Pulling out my phone from it's resting spot in my pocket I flicked through the contacts hoping to find one person I could talk to that could help.
Roxas
My finger frozen to above the 'call contact' button. It was just like before. Just like last time I mouthed off to Vexen and he 'corrected' my mistake. I had tried to run away with Roxas, we had gotten all the way down to Hollow Bastion and where planning to go all the way to Traverse Town, maybe even Destiny Islands. We didn't know, but even so I was happy, but Life sure fixed that in a hurry. Roxas had been having breathing problems for a while and he had a major attack, we had to go back to get him medicine. Lea was so angry with us when he heard he was in the hospital.
Furiously wiping tears from my eyes I shoved my phone back in to my pocket and started walking.
Axel...we haven't talked since the funeral...
I shivered, pulling the hood over my head, more to keep anyone from seeing me cry than of any real want to protect my self from the cold.

Standing in front of Lea's large brick house I wasn't sure what to do, who knew if he wanted to see me again, he hadn't spoken to me in two months...what if he hated me.
There's only one way to find out you know.
Taking a deep breath I knocked on the door.
