"Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life...You give them a piece of you. They didn't ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like 'maybe we should be just friends' turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love."
"Yay! Now we have the houses to ourselves!" I cheered running into the
other room and stealing some of Zexion's text books. "Where were you in
school?" He finished his pancakes and responded "The just starting
trigonometry." I smiled and took out the math text book flipping pages and
explaining it to you. (I would explain it but I hate math. :D) After a while you
moved to social studies talking about how The Nile was very fertile and what
not. Then I got the long as could be lecture on correct grammar. All though I
have to admit this was better than sitting in a class room. After three hours
we took a lunch break. Demyx made my favorite, grilled cheese and tomato
soup. "So Roxas…how do you feel about your parents and all? You haven't
really acted sad and it's not good to hide your feelings." Demyx looked up
with innocent eyes. I looked down and picked at the yummy grilled cheese.
"I have scary dreams sometimes, but most of the time I keep them on my
mind and I can talk to them as if they are here, so I'm fine. My sister thinks
you're funny. Her name is Seiko." Demyx made a face that reminded me of a
kitten. "Really what's she like?" I smiled and tilted my head back. "Her hair
is a ice blue and goes past her shoulder blades. It's a bit wavy too. Her eyes
are a bright yellow and she is about seven. She acted a lot like you too."
Demyx smiled an even bigger smile as I finished my sandwich and soup. We
then went into a discussion about capitalism and communism, I was
communism and Demyx was capitalism. When we finished it was 1:52 and
Zexion was to be home any minute. When he arrived he put down his
suitcase and loosened his tie rubbing his temples again. "What's up?" He
looked up and stated "Some one hacked the system and is stealing thousands
of dollars. My boss is firing people. I'm next to getting fired."
I was running after a drug dealer when he turned a sharp corner and took
out my friend Ryotsu he was stabbed in the stomach. That's it. I snapped
running faster than I ever have in my life. Seeing that he assaulted an officer I
was allowed to beat the shit outta him. So I took the pleasure, I tackled that
son of a bitch and beat him with my stick thingy. And belive me I enjoyed it.
Once he passed out I picked him up and rammed him to a wall while cuffing
him and taking him back to the car. I drove to the station and dropped him
off. Gil Grissom walked up to me and asked if I knew where Roxas was. I
shook my head and told me that my house needed to be searched along with
Demyx's and Zexion's. I played it cool until I was out of sight. I took out my
phone and called Zexion. Ringggggg.
"Hello?"
"Zex get Roxas outta there the cops are coming!"
"Okay thanks Axel, bye."
"Bye." I hung up and prayed he would be smart enough to get him out of the
house and not just under a bed or something. Right then an emergency
meeting was being held and attendance was mandatory. So I strutted to the
meeting room like my normal self. When we got there Warrick was telling us
more on the Roxas/Hayner case. He was an awesome forensic scientist but his
facts today were bullshit! He has been standing by one to many rotting pigs.
(I love CSI: Las Vegas) The seminar lasted until 5:00 so I was able to go
straight home after that. I got in the silver shiny truck and drove home almost
to fast. I slammed the truck door and ran into the house. Luckily I saw Zexion
reading a book while Rox and Dem lay sprawled on the ground. Zexion
looked up from his book and called him over quietly into another room and
closed the door. "Everything went fine. Roxas hid in the wine cellar and
Demyx played cool. Why were you so worried? Your voice was very tense on
the phone." I looked around before saying "Bad day." He then walked out
and went to the store for some food. I sat on the end of the couch that didn't
have Roxas all over it. And I watched him sleep. He looked so happy and
peaceful. Not anything like an orphan should look of. But then he flinched a
bit and tightened his fists. "Don't…bad…" He mumbled turning back and
forth. I put my hand on his cheek and whispered "Don't worry Roxy.
Everything will work out all right." Roxas's face got back to the soft look as
he clutched on to my hand. Without even noticing I smiled. Just then Demyx
woke up and shot you a confused look. But seeing you were distracted by the
cute you didn't see him grin and go back to sleep. After a while I got my hand
free and helped Zexion with the groceries, still somehow not waking them
up.
"Axxxeeeellll! " I called grinning. I blew some of my blond hair out of my
face. "I saw how you looked at Roxas." My grin got bigger. His eyes widened
before he hit me on the back of my head. "Quiet down Romeo!" He scolded
before walking over to the boy and waking him. Roxas yawned and rubbed
his eyes. "Hey…" He was still half asleep. I still had the huge grin and I was
starting to scare Roxas. "Demyx you okay? He was staring at me as if I was a
mad man. I nodded yes still grinning at the now very pissed Axel. I then
walked over and pulled out some pasta, angel hair spaghetti too. I got a pot
of water and got it to a boil before dropping the thin hard noodles in. I
watched Axel carefully though as if I took my eyes off for a minute I'd miss
out. While the noodles boiled I snuck out Prego pasta sauce. I hope they can't
tell I day dreamed putting it in a pot to warm it up. Zexion ended up walking
in and getting a glass of water spotting the jar. "Cheater…" He whispered
into my ear. I shook a bit as he left and I stood there like an idiot. I shook it off
and stirred the noodles. (Zexion OOC: I wanna see your noodle!;D) After
about twenty minutes I put the noodles into a strainer and the sauce into a
bowl hiding the evidence. I set all of the bowls and plates, forks, and what
not. "Zex, Axel, Roxas dinner!" I called breaking Axel and Roxas away from
Cops on T.V. They all took their plates and shoveled on the food as I laughed
"Geez don't eat it all!" I play wined. As I got some for myself and got the
'Cheater's sauce' sitting down between Roxas and Zexion. Axel took the
liberty of slurping every noodle and Zexion smacking him for his bad
manners in front of a guest. I laughed harder right before then I was pretty
dang close to being mauled myself! Axel put down his plate and tackled me.
"Yeah pretty funny hu blondie?" Axel started to tickle me and my eyes teared
up. "H-h-HELP!" I yelled begging for mercy but of course Zexion just
watched and laughed. After a minute Roxas got up and started to pry Axel
off of me and he got himself pinned down.
