The Beginning of the Interlude
At that moment, Axel felt his imaginary heart stop.
"R-Roxas..." Axel began to say before the boy in front of him began to sob. Axel gasped and wrapped his arms around Roxas. The boy looked up at him.
"Axel, what are you- mmh!" Roxas' eyes widened at the feeling of Axel's lips pressed against his own. Axel's grip on the boy's shoulders tightened as he deepened their kiss. He pulled away slowly, staring at Roxas' blushing face.
"Axel, you..."
"Yes, Roxas."
Roxas looked down at the ground. He was still blushing deeply. He opened his mouth to speak, but no words came out. He looked up at Axel again, a small, warm tear falling from his eye. Axel cupped his face and wiped the tear away with his thumb.
"Roxas, umm... I need to go..."
"Go wh-where, Axel?"
"Somewhere. I...I think Demyx needs me to join him on a mission. So, bye."
Swiftly, Axel stood up, opened the door, and practically ran down the hall to his room. He closed the door loudly behind himself. He leaned against the door as he slumped down. He had a hand on his mouth as if he was trying to suffocate himself. And, oddly enough, that was something he thought of doing in the trip back to his room.
God, did I really just... he thought to himself. Did I really just make out with Roxas? The Roxas. The Roxas that should be in love with Namine. The Roxas that shouldn't be sitting in his room at this very moment wondering exactly why I just up and left. The Roxas that most likely is, sadly enough, sitting in his room wondering why I just up and left. God, I'm a fool for doing that. I really need to be shot in the face right now...
Axel just sat on the edge of his bed, contemplating on how he would ever be able to face Roxas again.
