王国 心: 人々

Chapter: 4 +~Dearly Beloved~+

"Please don't leave me, Axel," I begged still gripping his arm. All the people walking past us were like a blur to me. I wanted them to vanish. To be gone. So I can be alone with him. "Roxas…" he said finally. The way he said my name made me grip even harder. I looked at him trying to see those beautiful emerald eyes of his. He turned around and hugged me. His warm arms wrapped around…Oh how I messed that. "I missed you," Axel said burying his face in my neck. That made more tears fall down. "I-I missed you too, Axel," I hugged him tighter. We stood there. Hugging. Until he broke it and smiled at me. "So what brings you here to the fair?" he asked wiping away my tears. "Actually I forgot," I said. Really I don't know why I'm here. Was I with someone? All I remember was eating cotton candy then I saw Axel. Oh well don't matter to me. I laughed. "Still acting like a zombie I see," he joked. I smiled. "Oh shut up."

We both laughed. "Why are you at the fair, Axel?" I asked cuddling into his chest. "Well I just wanted to come here actually. Good thing I 'died' now or I would never get to see you again. Unless my plan worked," he said looking up at the sky. Plan? To see me? "What plan?" I looked up at him to meet his shiny eyes. "Well I was planning to make Sora into a heartless then you would pop up and…I could see you again," the last thing he said made him blush and look away. I giggled wrapping my arms around his thin fit body. "Axel I want to go on the Fairs Wheel," I said in my little child voice. He chuckled and ruffled my hair. "Sure thing."

It was a long way to get to the Fairs Wheel, but we made it. We got in a light blue 'bench' is what I called it. Axel buckled us in and the man working there pulled the bar in front of us so we wouldn't fall. Once all the people got into a little bench thingy the ride started moving. We got to the top and my feet were dangling. I was a little scared so I snuggled up into Axel for protection. He wrapped an arm around me and laid his head on mine. Out of the blue the ride stopped. Our bench rocked a little and I glanced down. I pulled my head back into Axel's chest and winced. "I wonder what's wrong," Axel said rubbing his thumb against my arm.

BOOM!

We both looked at the sky and saw a firework fade away. "Oh, it's a firework show!" Axel said laughing.

Crack, BOOM!

We watched the color flow in the sky and fade. "Roxas…" I looked up at my redhead. "Huh?" I answered back. His soft lips were pressed upon mine. My eyes closed. I remember everything now about Axel and I. Our lips separated and my blush deepened.

After the show and the ride Axel walked me home. "So Axel where's your house?" I asked swinging our hands. "Well…no where actually," he said scratching the back of his head. "Then you can stay with me!" I popped up. Even if it's a one bedroom apartment I can turn my sofa into a little bed. "Thanks Roxy," Axel purred in my ear before kissing my cheek. I blushed. By the time we reached my apartment it was one in the morning. I looked at the clock and yawned. I walked over to the sofa and turned it into a bed. "You can sleep here Axel. Sorry, but it's the only thing left," I said putting pillows and blankets on it. "It's ok," he walked be hide me and kissed my cheek. I blushed once again.

"I'm going to bed. I'm tried," I yawned while covering my mouth with my hand. I walked to my room and turned around to see Axel following me. "Do you need something, love?" I asked rubbing my eyes. "Nope. I wanted to tuck you in, Roxy," he said. I smiled and walked into my room and stripped into my boxers forgetting Axel was there watching me. Axel snickered. I glanced at him and blushed my hardest. "Nice body," he purred in my ear grabbing my waist. "You can't have it," I teased and stuck out my tongue.

Axel frowned, but smiled. I jumped into bed and laid on my side. Axel put the covers over me and kissed my forehead. "Goodnight my love," he said. "Night Axel." He walked away. "I love you," I said as he stepped out my room. "I love you more. Got it memorized?" he said before disappearing into the dark hallway. Been a while since I've heard him say that. Man, how much I missed him. My eyes were getting heavy so I gave up and fell asleep.

The sun lit my whole room up as I opened my eyes. My dreams went back to normal to Sora's thoughts, that's good.

I turned over and stared blankly at the red head sleeping by me. 'Oh Axel,' I thought. I pecked his soft lips. His emerald eyes meet my ocean eyes. "Morning sleepy head. What you doing in my bed?" I asked smiling playfully. "Nothing," he smiled back. He wrapped his arms around me and pulled me closer to his body.

I snuggled in his grip and I felt him kiss my neck. I moaned and as I did I felt his lips smirk.

"A-Axel. We shouldn't," a blush was painted across my cheeks.

Then my phone rang. I stood up in shock. "X-XION!" I yelled remembering that I ditched her at the Fair. I ran to my cell and flipped it open.

"Hello?"

"Roxas! What happened yesterday? I got back and I couldn't find you!"

"Um…Something…came up," I looked over at Axel who looked displeased.

"What Roxas?" The way she said my name made me blush. I couldn't lie to here, but I did it anyway.

"I felt sick after the ride. Guess it was too much for me," I chuckled.

I heard her giggle through the phone which made me smile. I glanced at Axel as he walked over to the couch and watched TV.

"Hey Roxas, would you like to go somewhere today?"

My thoughts snapped back to Xion. "Um…I'm sorry, but I'm busy today. Got to clean up the house," I quickly lied.

She sighed. "Okay. Maybe some other time!"

"Yeah, I'll look forward to it."

Click

I sighed and put my cell down on the counter.

"So, who was that?" Axel asked blankly. I walked over to him with a smile printed on my face. "Xion."

The name made Axel's expression changed to anger. I sat on his lap facing him and tilted my head. "Axy?" I said in my child voice.

I held his head in my little hands and made him face me. Well, not actually he's eyes were still looking at the TV. I sniffed and covered my face in my hands. I sniffed again and again pretending to cry.

Axel's soft hands we're placed on my shoulder. "Roxas, what's wrong? Is it me?"

I shook my head yes slowly.

"I'm sorry, babe. It…it just looked like you really like Xion," his thumbs rubbed against my arm. He pulled me into a hug. Doing so I smirked and pecked his lips.

The flurry of dancing flames looked shocked. "I thought you were sad."

"Heh, tricked you!"

Number eight pressed his lips against my own for a passionate kiss. Axel planted his hands on my hips as my arms were around his neck. Oh how much I loved him
