Roxas woke up to his muscles aching all over, the surfing must of finally caught up to his body; Roxas was apparently out of shape. Roxas slowly and painfully got out of bed to take a shower, hoping it would calm his muscles at least a bit. Roxas changed into his normal clothes and brushed his teeth, going downstairs after he was done for breakfast. I hope Axel is working today, I want to see him.

"We saw what we saw and if it happens again, you're gone." Roxas stopped at his father's voice coming from the dining room; Roxas hid behind the wall and listened. "You are only to serve us; you will not take him out of this house again." Roxas understood now, his parents must of seen him and Axel walking home and now Axel was in trouble. "Are we clear?"

"Yes sir, it won't happen again." Axel said, but the slight smirk in his voice said contrary. Roxas stepped out from behind the wall and walked into the room, keeping his eyes away from Axel at all costs, and sat down in a chair away from both of his parents.

"Good Morning Roxas." Rin chirped, smiling at him. Roxas gave her a sound of acknowledgment but said nothing.

"Roxas, are you feeling alright? You've been acting weird." Len proclaimed, putting his newspaper down and looking at his son seriously. Does it look like something's wrong? They keep asking me again again and I always tell them I'm fine. Do they even listen?

"I'm fine, seriously, now can you guys stop asking me that everyday?" Roxas grunted, filling his plate with the food that was laid out on the table.

"We're just worried about you honey." Rin pouted and Roxas got up from the table with his food.

"Well if you're really worried you should try listening to me for once." Roxas said and bounded up stairs to his room in record time, he was angry at them for no reason but just they fact they wouldn't listen to him. Roxas always spoke, maybe not with his voice but with his eyes, his attitude, his appearance. If his parents weren't able to pick on something by now… why waste his time?

Roxas stayed in his room for the whole day, he didn't even want to see anyone; the only one he was willing to see was Axel. Roxas knew he could easily have Axel come up to his room but he was afraid, afraid that Axel would get caught and fired. Roxas didn't want to be the cause of that. Suddenly, Roxas heard his phone ringing. Now what does he want? Roxas knew who that ringtone belonged to and sighed as he picked it up. "What?"

"Well gee, you can at least say hello." Sora whined into the receiver and Roxas rolled his eyes.

"Well I didn't, what's up?"

"Are you gonna tell me about the date or what?" Sora practically beamed through the phone.

"Fine, but only if you come over, I don't want to talk on the phone right now."

"What are you talking about? I'm already at your house." Roxas really should have expected that, Sora really did do things of his own free will but Roxas couldn't keep up.

"You… just get up here already." Roxas sighed and hung up his phone. A second later there was a knock at his door; Roxas knew who it was so he told them to come in. "You really need to stop coming over unexpectedly like that." Roxas said not looking towards the door but out the window.

"But I work here, I don't think your parents would like if I just stopped coming." Roxas turned at Axel's voice and gaped. "Surprised?" Roxas slowly nodded, then got up and slammed his door closed as if something just came to mind and he didn't want anyone else to know.

"What are you doing? If you're seen with me you could get in trouble!" Roxas blurted, fearing for Axel.

"I don't mind, I'll find another job. I'd rather be with you anyway." Roxas blushed and he could feel it spread all over his face, he looked down nervously. Axel liked how cute he looked.

"Axel, please leave, don't lose this chance. You're at a good paying job and you still need to get your home. Please don't get in trouble because of me." Roxas begged but Axel didn't budge.

"Then go on another date with me." Roxas looked up at him, a look of shock on his face. D-Date?

"I- I, uh… um." Roxas was thinking of the right words, but he couldn't get them out. "I- I guess, but we have to make sure we aren't seen this time." Roxas knew he was going against himself by going out with Axel again, but how could he refuse the offer? It was like turning down a chance for a million dollars… or something like that.

"Great, I'll come pick you up say this Saturday?" Axel grinned and Roxas nodded, opening the door and shoving the redhead from his room before they were caught. Sora was coming down the hall as Roxas did this and a smirk set on his face, Roxas sighed in defeat: he could never catch a break from these two.

"What. Happened?" Sora immediately asked as he flung himself onto Roxas's bed.

"He just wanted to see me." Roxas lied and Sora shook his head, Roxas knew it wouldn't be that easy.

"No way, you expect me to believe that?" Sora crossed his arms across his chest. "Now, what happened?" Roxas paced for a while before stopping in front of Sora.

"He asked me out on another date." Roxas could see Sora about to scream so he quickly covered the brunette's mouth. "Hush! Don't you dare make some girly squealing noise!"

"But Roxas… this means he really likes you." Sora stated after pulling Roxas's hand from his mouth.

"I know but my parents yelled at him this morning. They probably saw us when we were walking home or something because they told him to stay away from me. I knew they wouldn't approve and I don't want to hurt Axel's chance of getting a new future." Roxas's voice wavered and cracked, he felt like he was about to cry. He didn't know why but he cared so much but he did.

"Oh Roxas…." Sora got up and did something Roxas never thought he would do, he hugged him. "You shouldn't worry too much about it; evidently Axel isn't worried about it so you shouldn't be either. As for your parents, I say we look for a way for them to approve." Roxas smiled a bit.

"Thanks Sora, your right. I shouldn't worry about it, Axel isn't worried – he just wants to be with me and I want to be with him." Sora let go of Roxas and nodded.

"That's right and that's what's most important. You two are perfect for each other." Roxas blushed again. "Now, before we worry more about your next date… let's talk about the first." Sora grabbed Roxas's hand and pulled him over to the bed.

"I swear you're like a girl sometimes."

"Funny… Riku says that too." Roxas chuckled. "Never mind that, tell me! I've waited long enough."

"Alright, alright." Roxas told Sora every detail about what happened between him and Axel on their date. Roxas even told Sora about how his stomach would fill with butterflies when he had to share a board with Axel, Axel was so close to him then and Roxas wanted to stay that way for all eternity.

Sora ended up sleeping over again, but Roxas couldn't keep his eyes closed for two seconds. He was too busy thinking about his next date with Axel. I wonder where he'll take me… what will we do? I can't wait. Oh god, I'm sounded like Sora. As if on cue, Sora snored loudly and mumbled something before flipping over and going back to a silent sleep.

Roxas chuckled softly and tried for the millionth time to sleep that night, when he heard a soft clinking sound. Roxas got up and listened carefully for it, he realized it was coming from his window. He opened his window and ducked as a pebble came flying towards his face. "What the-?"

"Sorry!" Came a soft voice from outside, a very familiar voice…too familiar.

"Axel? Is that you?" Roxas practically freaked as he shot his head out the window and looked down to see none other than the redhead waving up at him. "What are you doing? Do you want to be fired that badly?"

"I just wanted to see your face before I went home." Axel said, smirking up at him and Roxas was lucky the darkness could hide his beet red face.

"Well, you saw me… now please go before you're caught."

"Do you want me gone that badly?"

"NO! Of course not… but my parents…."

"Roxy, does it look like I care if your parents catch me or not? Either way, I'll be with you no matter what. Nothing and nobody will separate me from you." Roxas felt he was going to cry, Sora was right, Axel truly did care for him.

"Axel, I know that but my parents won't approve… your just a servant to them."

"Am I a servant to you?"

"No!"

"Then I'm fine the way I am. Goodnight Roxas." Axel turned around and waved behind him as he strolled home, Roxas watched him until he couldn't see him anymore.

My heart hurts… I can't take this… it hurts, I love him too much. Roxas clutched his aching chest and closed his window. He climbed slowly back into bed and knew he wasn't going to sleep tonight.

A/N: OH MY GOODNESS, AN UPDATE! :O

Sorry it took long, plus this wasn't even that good... I definitely could of ended it better but I digress.

I'm currently working extra hard on Saved to be Slaved... even writing during school and having a few of my friends edit it for me... it's halfway done and should be done in good time. I hope you guys aren't about to throw virtual pitchforks and such at me. T.T I realize my failure.

Aw, I do love the Axel and Roxas in this though... just sayin'. -.-'
