Valentine's Day ~ Chapter 2
Disclaimer- I do not own any of the Kingdom Hearts games, the awesome characters, or the holiday Valentine's Day.
I was walking out of the school, glad the day was finally over and done with. I was about to leave the court yard when a familiar voice called my name and stopped me in my tracks immediately. "Axel! Wait!" Roxas called after me. I turned and smirked at him.
"What's up, Roxy?" I asked, repressing the grin.
Roxas blushed and I'm sure my heart grew wings and flew away. "I-I was w-wondering if I c-could…m-maybe…" he stuttered. I got the picture and finished for him, "You wanted to walk me home. Am I correct?" I asked.
His blush grew darker and he nodded shyly. "Alright then, Roxy. My house is on Night Street south. Where's yours?" I asked, beginning to turn to walk. Roxas did the same, following in step beside me.
"Twilight Street north…" the blond replied. I whistled impressively, "You live in that part of town? Lucky." I remarked, glancing down at him. He was still blushing; and I was lapping it all up.
Roxas shrugged, "It depends on your point of view really. My parents are always at work so we can stay there. I never get to see them." He mumbled, staring down at his sneakers.
I looked away, "Better not seeing them than not having them…" I replied, taking on a gloomy tone. "What do you mean?" Roxas asked, puzzled.
I sighed and looked back at him, seeing his sapphire eyes sadden as he looked into my malachite eyes, "My parents were killed when I was younger by a cereal killer. I've been living off the money they left me since." I explained sadly.
Roxas muttered an "Oh…" before we took a left onto my street.
Once at my house, Roxas' expression saddened. I didn't want to see the boy leave either. "H-Hey, did you want to stay for a bit?" I asked cautiously, afraid he'd say no. My fear was proved wrong within less than a second. "Yeah! I-I mean that'd be cool…" he said, blushing again.
Why did he have to be so beautiful? Why?
I grinned and opened the door, stepping aside to allow him through first. Roxas didn't hesitate to walk into my home. I followed after the blond and we took off our boots and coats, setting the footwear over the heater.
"Would you like to call someone and tell them you're here?" I asked, beginning to worry about Roxas' parents. He nodded and asked where the phone was. "On the coffee table in the living room," I replied, pointing towards the room.
He walked over and flopped on my black leather couch my parents had left behind for me, dialing his number, and putting the device to his ear. It rung for a moment-or-two before he began speaking into it.
"Hey mom." He paused. "I'm at Axel's house." Someone's voice buzzed on the other line. "Axel is a friend of mine." The voice buzzed. "Alright, see you later then." He hung up.
"I can stay until 5:00" he said. I smiled and walked over, dropping on the couch beside the little angel. "Cool. Would you like something to drink?" I asked. Roxas nodded, "Yes please." He replied.
I stood and asked what he wanted. "Water's fine." He said.
I went into the kitchen and opened the cabinet to dig around for a pair of glasses. I found them and closed it, filling them with water before sauntering back into the living room. "Here." I smiled, handing him the glass, carful not to spill it.
He smiled back and thanked me. There was an awkward silence after that, both of us unknowing of what to say.
I wanted to tell him I loved him, but I thought it wasn't the right time yet. Instead I simply stared at his glory. His golden river-like locks, his milky skin, his soft lips, and especially those beautiful sapphire eyes. I could drown in those gorgeous pools of perfect blue.
Simply amazing.
For a while Roxas stared at the floor. I'm guessing he was thinking of something to say. It was nearly time for him to leave when Roxas finally spoke up.
"Hey…c-can I tell you something?" he asked cautiously. "And I want you to promise you won't be angry, or hate me." He added. I nodded hesitantly, curious as to what he had to ask me.
He blushed brightly and didn't speak for a while, for about two minutes. "I…I…" he murmured. I leaned in, putting my hand on his shoulder. "It's okay, you can tell me anything." I comforted him.
His head bent low and he whispered something that I could barely hear or believe. My eyes widened and I tilted his head up to look into his eyes.
"Wh-What…did you say…?" I asked incredulously.
"I love you, Ax-" I cut him off with a kiss, wrapping my arms around his neck. Roxas was surprised at first, but relaxed, tangling his slender fingers in my crimson hair.
I smiled into the kiss, poking my tongue cautiously at his lips. He opened his mouth and my tongue explored every inch of the blonde's mouth. I began twirling mine around his and he moaned into it.
Soon we pulled away for breath, both of us panting. Roxas seemed to be a little afraid, but curious. "I love you to, Roxas…" I said, smiling gently.
This had to be the best day of my life!
Roxas smiled back and I hugged him closer. I felt so warm with him in my arms, so light. Like a weight had been lifted off my back that I'd had for about 9 years. Gawd was he adorable. I couldn't restrain myself for much longer if we stayed that way.
That was when I noticed the time. 4:55. Roxas had to leave me in five minutes. Dammit all! "Hey Rox, you have to go in five." I said solemnly, really not wanting him to leave.
Roxas cursed under his breath before standing. "Walk me home?" He asked. I nodded instantly, standing beside him.
We got our coats and boots on and I lead him out the door, sighing as I locked it. We walked down my street in silence for a minute before I spoke up, "So…Are you okay with all this?" I asked.
Roxas gave me a confused look before realization hit him and he nodded. "Of course, Axel. In truth I've loved you since I met you…" he blushed, not looking away and smiling still.
I smiled to; astounded that he'd always loved me too.
Once we arrived at his house we sadly waved good-bye and I watched him as he entered the house. Once he was inside, I turned and headed back to my house.
Our relationship was only just beginning and I knew that. I just wished it would never end.
