Sora's eyes flutter lightly, trying to adjust to the light shimmering light. His head gave off a cramped wave of pain as the blur of lights circled around him in a teasing motion. The brunette was utterly confused. He knew he was in the nurse's office in the A wing of the school, but didn't know the reason why. Since my body wouldn't respond, I forcefully take my elbows and prop myself up.
"Whoa, don't rush your self man. You have a lot of damage on your hands," warned a cool husky voice.
Sora turned his neck to see a red lion's mane plaster on a lanky, tall, green eyed teen named Axel. And seemingly unfortunate and fortunate, he's been the brunette's companion since junior high.
Sora rolled my eyes then tossed his sore legs over the bed to get a better balance of myself. But he flinched and grabbed his skull in pain as his head gave off long unbearable shocks of pain, trailing down his body also.
The red head just whistled at Sora's reaction to the pain. "The blond fox got you good." he smirked "I guess the rumors were right." I looked at him quizzed "what rumors? What blond fox?" I asked while rubbing my head. The only thing I remembered was giving Riku a boost to Kairi.
Oh shit.
Sora didn't think of the consequences before he shoved his one and only crush out to Kairi. He only wanted Riku to be happy, that's it. Maybe I need to think of my own happiness once in a while. But I couldn't remember anything else. I looked over to the left to see my crown necklace on the counter. Why is that there? I stretched over to pick and put it above the lighting, so it would gleam with power. I smiled a little I wonder when I'm gonna met the person with this 'X' necklace. But something's telling me he's close, and I bet he's the reason I was here knocked out.
"Hey Axel, what happed exactly?" I asked, still dazzled by my jewelry. He looked at me funny, and then chuckled. "Didn't know you liked recaps from your previous beat downs, Sora." he sighed "but if you must know, the new in town kid kicked you upside your head and hit you on your pressure point." He crossed his arms over his broad chest and shook his head lightly "but I forgot the little fox's name, something with an 'r'" I looked at him with wide eyes, my palms were shaking and my breath came in quick breaths. I found him. I've finally found him.
'Don't youdarefinish that sentence.'
But it's too bad he's a raging manic from hell.
"Roxas. Or what other people prefer to call him, Roxie the Foxy" I said flatly.
Axel raised a singled brow "how did ya know?" He pauses for a minute, and then catches on "oh." so he beat your ass just because you called him by his nick?" I groaned then put on this crown necklace that got me into this mess, hooking it then smoothing out the laps. "Axel, remember when I told you about the necklace and finding that girl with the 'X'?" He nodded "I think I found that person, and I think it's that idiot from this afternoon." I sighed. Axel came and sat beside me on the bed then patted my back. "Well all I gotta say is you got it good, and that little fox's fate will rest in your hand." he chuckled then went to the door. "You should probably go now, the school is gonna lock up soon" I nodded then cautiously got up, and walk down the hall to get my bag out of homeroom.
I opened the door to see the sun's red setting ray beam down on the desks without a care in the world. I reached to my desk and grabbed my bag, but heard footsteps behind me. I turn around to see that little blond again, Roxas. Why is here all of a sudden? He looked baffled and horrified of something. Then he lifted a shaky finger "t-that's not y-your bag…" he said voice cracking a little. I lifted a brow "what are you talking-" He squeezed his eyes shut then raced toward me "I said that's not your bag!" Then he grips the bag and pulls it, but I pull back harder. What in the hell is this kid doing?
We played tug of war for what seemed like for years. Him pulling back with same strength as mine. I decided to let go and see what happens, he only wanted to check if this is my bag right? When I release my grip, he falls back and slides a few steps away from me. I stumbled back a little then looked at him with confused eyes. Well, what is he gonna do now? Then finally he gets up and puts a scowl upon his face, throws the bag back to me (which I catch successfully), then pushes desks out of his way so he can get to the doorway. He stops at the door, and then looks at me. Did I mention he looks pretty mad? "You Jackass!" He yells then slams the door leaving the scattered desk and chairs, and a confused me in the room. And he expects me to clean up his mess?
2:32 AMThat's what the alarm clock on my nightstand said. And I officially could not sleep. I sighed then tossed over to the right side of the bed for the umpteenth time. That stupid boy freaking' ruined my life by welcoming me with a kick straight to my head. And to think I'm destined to help that little fox? I clapped my hands twice to turn on the light. If the brat was fighting me for my bag, I got up and approached the slightly abused Jansport over in the corner then something important must be in here that he didn't want me to see.
I sat down crossed legged, brushed my chocolate bangs out of my eyes, and then looked inside the main pocket in my bag. But there was nothing but text books and mere little pieces of paper. But when I look in the front pocket, there was a small sky-blue envelope inside of it. Bingo I chimed inside of my head. I held it up to the light then read the front as my blue orbs go wide.
To: Axel Wright
From: Roxas Strife
A love letter? I shook my head. I'm not judgmental or anything, but I wouldn't have guessed it was for Axel of all people. Wait, it might not be a love letter for all I know. I flipped the envelope to see a darker shade of blue heart sticker tapped onto the flap. My left brow suddenly twitched with ignorance so that Blondie has a soft side, eh? But something caught my eye that really confused me as the light shun down the paper; the envelope was empty. I exhaled lightly I really underestimated him, this foxy Roxie is stupid, hi- tempered, and clumsy.
Thump, Crash!I flinched. Mom isn't supposed to be here. I felt myself go cold. Maybe it's a burglar?
I slowly put down the letter and got up to slide a bat from under my bed. I crept out of the room and into the wooden stairs. My breath came in slow pants as I went into the living room. My hands were in the mist of sweat as I turned on the light. What I saw next wasn't expected. All I saw was shattered pieces of my mother's favorite vase lying on the wooden floor helplessly. Who ever did this is seriously gonna get it. When I got closer to the shatter glass, a wooden sword engraved a hole into the wall next to me. I didn't turn, I didn't blink and I didn't even breathe. "There you are," the all too familiar voice chimed sinfully. I turned my head to see that little fox grinning like an evil menses.
I was right, a raging manic from hell.
He pulled out his sword from the wall and charged at me with full force. But I crawled away just in time to not get pounded by his weapon. I got up and griped the bat in front of me in full stance. He came at me with a right swipe of his sword and I came with equal force with a left. We both collide with our weapons still staying intact with each other. "What the hell are you doing here!" I managed to shout. He squeezed his eyes shut then grunted "T-the letter!" He pushed me back onto the floor with the bat falling from my hands. He came back within his stance.
I propped one elbow. "What letter?" I questioned looking at the panting Roxas. His stance loosened a little, with his cheeks heating up like tomato, body fidgeting and eyes looking down.
He actually looks cute now. Sora mused in his head at the wrong time. "T-t-the l-love letter!" He practically screamed. He came rushing toward me with his sword coming dangerously close. I couldn't grab my bat, so I grabbed the front of the weapon, now barley touching the tip of my nose.
"It was empty!" I yelled, startling the blond into stopping the raging weapon.
He looked up at me with huge blue eyes. "E-eh?" he squeaked, and I sighed. "You forgot to put the letter in envelope." He was shaking now, his face now pale and pasty. "Forgot to put the letter..." He repeated slowly.
Thug!
Then he fainted. I just sat there looking at the passed out blonde. Then I heard a growl come from his stomach. I face palmed myself. He fainted because of starvation, of course.
Right now it was 3:00 in the morning and I was sweeping up the crumbs of the broken vase. And for Roxas, he was eating leftover potato salad I made. I got up and threw the crumbs in trash. "Sorry of the leftovers, didn't want to make anything so late in the night" I said, sitting across from the blond.
He swallowed the remaining salad and shook his head. "It's good enough for right now." He had smudges of potato on his cheek, I smirked "here" I handed him a napkin and he took cautiously. I laid my head onto my folded hands. I never really got the chance examined Roxas, or see where his coming from either. He had blond, sun-kissed hair that flared in a unique direction; his eyes were a sea color but had a different emotional income to it, like he experienced a lot in his past. His body was fit. If he could almost be my ass twice in a day, he has to be fit, Sora grimaced. But he was smaller then me, height wise.
"Hey," I said, catching the boy's attention. "Who was the love letter for?" He looked at the table with a terrified expression, and then it turned into a fidgety, blushing one. Is he bipolar or something? "I-I-it was for A-axel" he stuttered out. I raised an eye brow and shook my head lightly I still can't imagine that. Then he looks up at me with his eyes shimmering with worry, like puppy dog eyes.
"What? Did I rush it? Or maybe I shouldn't have done it? Why did I even put damn letter in the wrong bag!"he yelled at himself, ruffling his hair with his hands. I sighed then put my hand on his shoulder. He looked back up at me and I gave him a reassuring smile "You chose the right thing to do, Roxas." I leaned back in my seat, "I couldn't have done that to my crush." And it was true. Like what I'm doing now, I would have kept my feelings to my self and let the person I loved live on with there lives.
I closed my eyes and rested my neck on the head of the chair.
"Yeah, because Riku isn't gay and you are," the blond said in a matter-of-fact tone.
My eyes flew open and I banged my hands on the table. "How inthe hell do you know about that?" I asked. His face didn't have any expression on it. "Riku and I have been friends for two years now," he replied flatly. "And I saw that look in your eyes that said you liked him." He crossed his arms over his chest and smirked successfully. My brow twitched with fiery as I sat back in my chair, dismissing the matter. I turned my head toward the black clock. 3:48 AM
Aunt comes home at four.
Shit! I jolted from my seat and took Roxas' plate from the table to the sink. I turned to said blond "you have to go" I demanded. He tilted his head to the side "why?" he asked curiously. I rolled my eyes "we have school tomorrow and my aunt is coming soon, so go!" I rushed. He got up, walked toward me and looked up into my eyes. "You have to promise me something first, Sora."
"Anything. Shoot."
"Will you be my dog and help me win Axel's heart?"
"Yeah, yeah sure. Now leave!"
Roxas eyes lit up with pure bliss. He smiles at me and takes my hand. "W-where are you taking me?" I asked a little confused at his action. "You have to walk me to the door, silly dog" he replied.
Oh. Wait, what? When we get to the doorway, he lets go of my hand and puts on his shoes, using the sword to balance himself. "I'll pay for the vase I broke; just tell me how much I should contribute later." He turns and faces me "well, I'll see you later Sora." I smiled "Yeah. See you at school tomorrow." He nods the heads out the door. I lock it and climb up stairs to my room. Once I reach that destination, I plop onto the bed and took in all I experienced today. Then He realized something;
I'm his personal servant?
Ring Ring Ring!
The brunette groaned then slammed his hand onto the snooze button.
Ring Ring Ring!
I rose up and grabbed my cell from the night table. "Hel-"
"Why the hell aren't you here ye-!"
I clicked off the call and slammed the phone back on the table.
Ring Ring Rin-
Sora grabbed it then flipped it open. "What?" growled into the device, showing that I am no mood for mornings and this person on the other line wasn't any happy morning person either. 'Come onto your balcony, now.' He sneered. I got up from my warm bed, slid open the door and stepped out onto the warm, sunny balcony. When I look up, I see a furious Roxas, looking at him from his open window.
And he is nothing, like the boy next door.
