Chapter 2: Who The Hell Are You?!
With November gone and Christmas slowly approaching, Roxas still wasn't finding school to be any easier. Especially now with Christmas shopping invading almost everything. Roxas didn't really hate Christmas, he just felt that it wasn't about shopping and buying gifts people were just going to return anyway. Plus he wasn't one for the Christmas spirit either; since he spent most of his Christmases alone or with friends. Downside to having rich business owning parents. So this lead to Roxas directing most of his glares from other people to all things Christmas related.
He was back in physics class staring out the window. He did this just about every class. A while back Mr. Brocton, or the Ice Queen as everyone called him, tried to catch him not paying attention by asking him to answer a question at random. Roxas just gave him a harsh glare and easily answered the question correctly. When he saw the shocked look on the Ice Queen's face he rolled his eyes and went back to staring outside. He left Roxas alone after that.
Lately he had been paying more attention to the outside. He had been seeing these strange flashes of red around. Once he thought it was someone's hair but he couldn't be sure; they're called glances for a reason. It would've bugged him more if he even knew what the red was. So until he figured it out, he stopped and stared.

Axel was bored out of his skull! Apparently there had been disturbances of the monster variety all over this place but every time he showed up there, there was nothing but that blond kid, Roxas. Xemnas said that the kid may be a new recruit and the monsters could be drawn to him, but at the same time he wasn't allowed to make contact with him. Axel was complying, for now. It was kind of fun watching Roxas, his scowls were entertaining. He almost caught Axel a few times but he was too sly to get caught for real. But besides those two things he was still just waiting. Roxas' daily routine wasn't exactly a daytime soap opera. He slept, went to school, ate, hung out with friends, worked a crappy fast food job, slept then repeated. No wonder this kid scowled all the time; Axel would too if his life was that boring.
After three weeks of monitoring Roxas, Axel was determining how he should pop into Roxas' life. he could pose as a sub, maybe a customer at his job, or even a fellow skateboarder! So many options! Axel let out a playful chuckle as he thought of all the fun he could have.
There was just one small snag. Roxas hadn't shown his element; at least not in an obvious way. There was a person out there for every element and The Organization already had several, some obvious and some abstract. Fire, nothingness, lightning, space, water, the list goes on. But what element does that little ball of spunk have? All this wondering made Axel want to confront Roxas even more. The thing about people with elements was that their elements had a better chance of reacting and showing up around other people with elements. With that in mind, Xemnas created The Organization; or at least that's what Xemnas said. But Axel didn't really listen to him if he didn't have to. And then Axel was back to showing up in Roxas' life. As Axel started to walk away from the school, the loud final bell went off. Time for action!

Roxas took his time taking his skateboard over to his shit job. He banked most of his money and spent very little during the week. He didn't need much and he wanted to put a lot away for his savings. Tonight he was working the grill flipping burgers. Over and over again. some job, huh? Anyway his break finally came so the first thing he did was went out for a smoke. yeah he smoked but no one dared say anything about it. Roxas wasn't the friendliest of people and he only smoked to calm himself down so no one said anything. That was how Roxas liked it. but what he didn't expect was a giant red-head to appear out of nowhere next to him.
The first thing he recognized was the wild red hair. So that's what I've been seeing?! How the hell did I miss that spiky mess?! Next thing he noticed? He was over a foot taller than Roxas. That made him scowl a bit. He hated being short. Next came the cat-like eyes with purple triangle tattoos underneath them. He was definitely a strange looking guy. He wore a short sleeve green button up and blue skinny jeans. While Roxas was looking the guy over he didn't notice the stranger reach his hand out to Roxas. "Got an extra smoke?"
Roxas didn't say anything; he just slowly offered the stranger a smoke. As the stranger lit up Roxas just kept staring at him waiting for the stranger to say something. But he didn't. Roxas' patience wore out fast. "Who the hell are you?! I know you've been watching me. what's your deal?!" As he was yelling he felt a slight pulse flow through him but was too angry to worry about it. what he didn't know was that his eyes were glowing but Axel saw. Oh this could be bad, Axel thought as he put his hands up defensively. "Listen kid I mean no harm"
"I'm not a kid. If you were a good stalker you'd know that."
Axel smirked. Oh I really like this kid. He slowly backed Roxas into a corner. "You're right. But it's not too wise to taunt a stalker, right kid?"
Roxas met Axel's smirk with a tough scowl. "I'm due back on the floor in less than 20 minutes. They'll notice me missing. Besides a proper stalker doesn't want to hurt who he stalks. They just want to possess them." The glow slowly died down. Axel felt relief but didn't show it. he was actually having fun. "Oh yeah?" Axel moved his face real close; close enough to whisper into his ear. "What do you think I want from you?" Axel found a red tint making its way onto Roxas' face. God he's adorable. Axel slowly backed off, chuckling. "Don't worry kid, I don't want anything from you. actually the complete opposite. I want to show you something. My boss has me keeping an eye on you and I'm gonna show you why." Axel pulled out his phone and put it in Roxas' face. It was big and nice enough to act as a mirror. "Now don't look up when I talk to you, just focus on the mirror."
Roxas just looked at the mirror and nodded. "Wish I had a nice phone like this."
"Well if you finally put on your big boy shoes, grow a foot, and stop acting like a kid you'll earn one." Roxas whipped his head at Axel and gave him one of his dirtiest looks. "Hey. Hey! The phone!" Roxas aimed his glare at the phone. His eyes were glowing! His glare turned into a look of shock and his eyes stop glowing. He looked up at Axel who had a knowing smile on his face. "The name's Axel Utadi. Figured I'd give you my full name since I'm going to get to know you very well the next couple weeks."
Roxas had is scowl back on. "Oh yeah? What makes you think that?"
"Because" Axel re-lit Roxas' smoke by putting a flame on his finger. "I'm in the same boat you are. Plus you're element won't manifest much unless I'm around." Roxas' look of shock was back but it didn't stay for long. He put on his scowl again, scribbled something down on a piece of paper and shoved it into Axel's hands. "No more stalking me hot head." Before Axel could respond Roxas quickly walked away, tossing his smoke into a gutter. Axel just laughed after the teen left. Oh this will be a lot of fun.
So was that better? hope so! Hey did I mention this is a gay story? Cuz it is. Yeah haha funny thing is I usually mention this at the very beginning of my stories. Ah well.
Chapter three up in minutes! See ya guys then!
