As he led me to his car I finally realized what I was doing. I was letting a complete stranger drive me home. Damn it! What the hell was I thinking? Did I never pay attention when people said not to talk to strangers, let alone allow them to drive you home?

GOD I WAS SO STUPID!

"u-umm excuse me Axel" I stammered "why exactly did you offer to drive me home, for all I know you could be a crazy axe murderer".

"Who says I'm not?"

I paled.

"Relax I'm joking, no need to be so serious, lighten up" he chided " I offered you a ride home simply because I wanted to, and because I saw you get yelled at by Mr. Valentine. You looked like you wanted to get out of this hell hole as soon as possible"

Well I couldn't argue with that last statement, but I guess school wasn't that bad. Just Mr. Valentine.

"I think he just needs to get laid" Axel joked

I couldn't help but let out a small laugh. As he led me to his car, I noticed how happy his demeanor was from his positive attitude to the slight bounce in his step. I suddenly found myself smiling, as if his positive energy was contagious.

"So you wanna do something first kid?" He asked.

"no and who you calling kid, you're only like what, 2 years older than me" I retorted.

"Three" he corrected.

"How do you even know how old I am?" I asked.

"Your brother's girlfriend is my cousin and we are very close, almost like brother and sister" He explained.

"Oh okay, I thought you were stalking me or something for a second" I said.

"And what if I am?"

"Then I'm walking back to that curb and waiting for my dad" I said as I stopped walking.

"I'm joking I promise! You gotta learn to lighten up, stop taking things so serious, and live a little" He said.

"Okay" I said kinda quietly as we finally got to his car (Which was a shitty red Toyota corolla).

"Hop in!"

As I got into the car, I couldn't help but notice it had quite a unique scent, like cinnamon and cigarettes mixed with subtle cologne.

"Do you smoke?" I inquired.

"Only when I'm nervous" he replied lighting up a cigarette "Why does it bother you?"

"No I was just curious" I stated "Does this mean you're nervous right now?" I said in regards to the cigarette.

"Pssh no this is an exception"

I didn't believe it for a second but I wasn't going to push the issue.

"So tell me about yourself Roxas."

Shit! What do I say? If I tell him about myself he's gonna think I'm super boring and he will probably never talk to me again. Wait? Why did I care what he thought of me? I would only care what a friend thought of me. Was I already seeing him as a friend?! GAH! What was happening to me? He probably just felt obligated to talk to me because of Kairi.

"You okay?" he asked "You're breathing a little funny."

"I'm perfectly fine I promise"

Damn it! He probably thinks I'm a freak that hyperventilates or something.

"How about we play the question game?" he suggested.

"Umm okay, what's your favorite color?" I asked.

"Contrary to popular belief, it is not red; it is in fact blue, like a pretty sky blue. What's your favorite food?

"Steak I would have to say. I love meat in general." I answered.

"That's what she said!" Axel exclaimed.

"What are you five?"

"No seventeen actually but at this point there really isn't a difference"

I laughed. By this time I realized we were sitting in his car in front of my house, and this fact freaked me the fuck out.

"HOW THE HELL DO YOU KNOW WHERE I LIVE!?" I screamed.

"Relax I drove Kairi here one time to see your brother, and I remembered how to get here. I have a photographic memory." He explained.

"Sure I'll believe that when pigs fly" I said as I started getting out of the car.

"Wanna hang out tomorrow?" He asked.

"If it gets me out of this car faster than sure"

"Great I'll see you tomorrow at School!" he said and he sped off.

Shit. What have I got myself into?
