Fatefully yours
Chapter 3
Respond
A dreary Friday afternoon. Two days from the first time they had exchanged words. According to Axel, he had found his mistake in the phone number and finally gotten a hold of his friend. They got to hang at a "rockin' club".
At those words, Roxas, who happened to be passing by his brother and Riku, burst out laughing. Both teens looked back at Roxas from the couch. The blonde blushed, not realizing anybody was home. His face grew darker when Sora turned, leaning on the back of the couch with his elbows. His little brown spikes bobbing as he shifted from arm to arm.
"What's so funny, Rox?"
"Nothing." He grinned, trying not to laugh again.
By that time even Riku had turned around to sit backwards on the couch. "Sane people don't just burst out laughing. Last time I checked, you were the sanest person here." He said coldly.
Having known Riku for years, Roxas interpreted his message more like, "There has to be a valid reason you're laughing and I want to know what it is."
"It's really nothing. Sorry to disturb your guys'... what were you guys doing?"
Sora stood from the couch eyeing the black phone in his younger brother's hand. "Oh was it Hayner? He must have said something really funny. I wanna be in the loop!" He swiped Roxas' phone away.
"H-hey. Give that back." Roxas yelled.
Sora scanned the message and laughed as he backed away fro his brother. "Ooo Roxas, I didn't know you liked older guy. Their so mature."
"The opposite of you! Give me back my cell." Roxas hissed at the older one.
"Roxas likes them older. Can you believe that Riku?" Sora looked over his shoulder. Riku, with a small grin, nodded.
"I do not. Give it back!" The blonde reached for his phone, but Sora just danced away keeping the phone just out of reach.
"His old is he?"
"Why do you assume it's a guy?" The latter asked, still trying with all his might to close the distance between him and his technology.
Sora smiled, flipping open his brothers phone to reveal the message before texting the number. "I'll find out then. And Rox, Axel is totally a guys name."
Roxas looked to Riku for help, but the silver haired teen, was more interested in the movie selection on the wooden table in front of him. Texting from his brother brought his attention back to the brunette.
"Sora don't text him. You'll probably bother the poor guy!"
After a few more buttons being pressed Sora threw the phone back to it's rightful owner. He then skipped back to the couch to argue over what movie he and Riku should watch.
Roxas, forgetting what he even needed from down stairs decided to go back up before Sora could pull anything else. As he ascended the stairs he glance at his messages, noticing Axel had answered.
'21.'
If Axel hadn't been lying that would make him five soon to be four years older than Roxas. That was about, his oldest brother, Cloud's age. Knowing how rude it was to ask someone's age, he replied.
'Sorry I know it was rude of me to ask. '
'Lol Np. But since you know my age, I'd like to know yours.'
Roxas smiled to himself as he eased his door open and walked to his desk. He turned on his computer and sat before responding.
'17 in a week.'
'So close to freedom!' Axel texted back. 'GTG have to work early tomorrow.'
Roxas looked at the clock. It was only around 6:56. There was no way he was going to bed that early. Was there?
Roxas stayed on his computer until around 10 typing up his creative story for his English class. He had his grey notebook in his lap as he flipped through pages of his story. He hated it. His story didn't feel real enough to him. The main character wasn't someone you could feel empathy or sympathy for. He was trying his hardest to make it a romance story, but love was hard to write when the author had never felt it. Or at least that's how Roxas felt.
He tapped his pencil against his cheek. Although he had the perfect plot and experience with it, he could find the words. It was mainly based off of Sora and Riku, with different names. Childhood friends turn lovers. Still he didn't like it.
Upset, he shoved the gray notebook back into it's place and grabbed a new one. Mostly he just doddled o it when he had writers block. But now he had finally thought of a story to put in it. This one, though, would not be shown to anyone. Not even Sora, although he knew that it was Roxas' doddle book.
"Roxas?" Sora said from outside the door. "Are you mad at me?"
"No. Why don't you come in?"
Sora's brown spikes bobbed into view. "How did you meet him anyways?"
"I don't remember." The blonde lied going back to his book. He needed a title.
Sora sat on Roxas' bed. "Was he a friend of cloud? I wonder if he's coming back for our party or jut waiting till this summer? He said something about Leon coming with him as well. He mumbled half to himself.
"Dunno." Roxas frowned thinking hard. He really wanted to concentrate but with Sora in his room , it was nearly an impossible feat. How did Riku deal with him sometimes? Sure Roxas had always been there for Sora and vis versa, but he clung to Riku. Anybody would have to be blind to not know they were dating.
"What do you mean 'dunno'? Don't tell me your talking to a stranger."
"No he is a friend of cloud's. One day I called and he answered." Yet another lie.
"Oh, then maybe it's fate you guys met." The brunette flopped down on the soft pillows.
Roxas smiled and said a quiet "maybe", as he wrote on the inside of his notebook the title for his new story.
