A/N: here's my second chapter. I probably won't be posting frequently because I only write when I randomly feel inspired so there might be some time between chapters. I'll try to write as often as I can though.

Chapter II

First mission as a couple

Roxas and Xion had just gotten back to the castle before breaking curfew and were headed to their rooms. The two of them had decided on the clock tower that they would keep what happened a secret from the rest of the Organization, except of course Axel since he was their best friend and they had complete trust in him not to tell anyone.

Wanting to spend a little more time together, Roxas walked Xion to her room. Luckily it was already pretty late so the other members were already in their own rooms. After they got to her room they said their good nights and Xion reluctantly closed the door. A second later, Roxas did a "yes" motion with his right arm, obviously happy with the event that had transpired earlier.

As he was turning, ready to walk to his room, he saw Axel across from Xion's room leaning his back on the wall, arms crossed and a grin on his face.

"A-Axel! How long have you been there?" Asked Roxas, surprised by Axel's sudden appearance.

"Since you got here. I saw you two holding hands when you got back and followed you here. You two were so into each other you didn't notice me. Good job Roxas, you two finally told each other, huh."

"Axel did you know?"

"Of course I knew. You think I wouldn't notice the way you two would act around each other? I'm not blind, it was pretty obvious."

Roxas started to feel embarrassed. He didn't know Axel could tell the way they felt about each other. Then he remembered what he and Xion had agreed on.

"Axel. Keep this a secret, alright? We don't want anyone else to know about this."

Axel went up to Roxas and ruffled his hair, irritating him. "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone. You're secret's safe with me. Got it memorized?" He then turned and started walking towards his room leaving Roxas in front of Xion's door.

Roxas then heard Xion's door open and saw her there staring at him. She seemed to have been listening in on the conversation the whole time.

"So Axel knew all along huh?"

"Yeah, I guess he did"

"Well, at least this saves us the trouble of telling him ourselves, and at least he agreed to keep it a secret." She said with a smile, her face a little red from imagining how embarrassing it would have been to tell Axel what happened between her and Roxas.

"Yeah, good thing. Well, it's getting late I'm going to bed. Good night."

"Good night."

The next morning, Roxas went to get his mission from Saïx who, as usual, was giving Roxas one of his menacing stares before giving him his mission.

"Roxas, your mission is heart collection in Twilight Town with Xion. You are to head out there immediately."

Roxas was thrilled to have a mission with Xion. He went to go tell her and get their stuff ready. They decided to work hard during the mission in order to have a lot of free time afterwards.

After a few hours of fighting every heartless they saw they were nearing their mission quota and decided to take a break on a bench in the sandlot before finishing up.

They each drank a potion so as to ready themselves for the rest of the heartless. Roxas watched as Xion drank her potion, not able to take his eyes off her and her beauty. Just as she finished her potion Roxas couldn't hold it any longer and decided to kiss her while her guard was down. Xion was surprised at the sudden sneak attack at first but then started to kiss back. All of a sudden they could hear someone cheering.

"Woo! Go Roxas!"

They quickly separated to see Axel staring at them with a huge grin on his face while clapping his hands.

"Axel!? What are you doing here? Didn't Saïx send you on a long mission?" Asked Roxas, his face red from being seen kissing Xion. Xion had her head down, also embarrassed from being seen kissing.

"I finished my mission earlier than expected and got some time off, so I came to buy some ice cream before heading to our spot to surprise you. Imagine my own surprise seeing you two here kissing in broad daylight." Said Axel. "So are you two coming with me or not?"

"We can't yet, we still haven't finished our mission." Said Xion, feeling a little calmer.

"That's no good, you can't be taking a break during a mission just to make-out." Said Axel, shaking his head at the two.

"We weren't taking a break just for that. We were getting ready to finish up and I just sorta kissed her on impulse." Said Roxas, his face turning red from saying something so embarrassing out loud.

"Even so, you can't be dropping your guard during a mission. What if a heartless had attacked you while you were kissing? What would you have done then?"

Roxas and Xion both knew he was right, they should have waited until they were finished with their mission before doing anything.

"All right. How about I join you guys then? That way you can finish your mission earlier and have more time to do what you want. What do you think?"

"Yeah. That would be great. Right Xion?"

"Of course! Thanks a lot Axel."

"Heh. Don't mention it. Just be sure to be careful from now on. Got it memorized?"

With the help of Axel, Roxas and Xion were able finish their mission much faster and easier. After which they all went to the clock tower to eat their sea salt ice cream. They joked around for a while about nothing in particular. Everything was the same as usual, except of course that Xion was practically on Roxas's lap with how close she was to him.

"Well, I'm heading back now." Said Axel getting up and stretching.

"Already? Asked Roxas. "It's still pretty early."

"Yeah well, I worked pretty hard to finish up my mission plus helping you guys out on your mission as well. I'm about ready to collapse from exhaustion."

"Well you should rest up then, and thanks again for helping us out on our mission today." Said Xion.

"Don't sweat it. Besides, I wouldn't want to keep you two love birds from doing anything you want just because I'm here." He said while looking at how the two Nobodies were trying hard not to do anything embarrassing in front of him.

As soon as Axel left Roxas got Xion and sat her on his lap facing him knowing she's been wanting to do that for a while. For a while they just stared at each other's eyes. Roxas was about to kiss her when she stopped him.

"Wait." She said while putting her finger on his lips.

"Why?" Asked a disappointed Roxas.

"You're the one who started the kiss and got us in trouble with Axel in the first place." She said with a stern look on her face. "So as punishment there won't be any kissing for a while."

"What!? But you were enjoying the kiss just as much as I was." Said Roxas.

"True. Which is why I'm also punishing myself by doing this."

"Fine." Said Roxas with a sigh.

"Bu~~t." Started Xion while turning her body so it faced the sky. "I will allow you to hold on to me as long as you want."

Roxas smiled at this. "Are you sure? You might get sick of it?"

"Hehe. I'm sure. There's no way I'll ever get sick of you."

Roxas was thrilled to hear this, so he did as she told him and held onto her the rest of the day before finally having to let go so as to head home and sleep. In the time it took him to fall asleep all he could think of was Xion and how he was lucky to have someone so sweet, funny, cute, and soft as her.

A/N: Sooooooooooooooo? What do you think? Any ideas on how to make it better are greatly appreciated.
