a/n: The next chappie! ATTENTION: VERY IMPORTANT!!! I'm changing the title of this story to Every Night In My Dreams. Seems to fit the story better with Sora's dream and all. Thanks again for the reviews (same people who reviewed last time). Happy Readings!

Roxas' POV:

It was pitch black when I woke up, with rain splashing and falling down in drenching torrents. But, when I looked at the clock on the bedside table across the room I saw that it read 3:30 in the afternoon. It was really wierd seeing rain, because I havn't seen rain before. Ever. When I was a Nobodie I was either indoors when it happened, or I traveled somewhere else on an assignment. And in Twilight Town it never rains, so this is the first time.

I sat up in bed and felt goose bumps erupt all over. The temperature apparently drops along with gales. Rubbing my arms to try and un-thaw them I looked back down to the sleeping boy next to me. He was curled up into a ball and shivering. And I thought that I was cold, when he doesn't even have a shirt on. I quickly pulled the covers up and over him from near the bottom of the bed, and held myself back from running my fingers through his perfect hair and over his gorgeous body. Instead I slid my legs over the side of the bed and stood up. It took me a second to get used to supporting my own weight again, but after about a minute I was able to shakily walk over to the window.

I gazed out, finding that it was completely useless in the end, because I could barely see through the rain it was comming down so hard. All I really could make out was a couple of faint lights off to the left. I placed my hand on the window, and I felt the cold pulsating against my palm through the glass. When I looked harder I could see my reflection, glinting back at me from outside in the rain. I want to be out there. I turned back around and walked silently to the door leading out into the hallway. I opened the door without a sound and carefully eased my way out.

It was dead silent. You could probably hear a grain of sand hitting the hardwood flooring if you really wanted to. Plus it was so dark. Kind of scary if you add in the deafaning quiet, that pressed my ears harshly. I nearly turned back, but just before I touched the doorknob my mind told me, Be a man! You can do it. It's only a little dark. It's only a few feet until there's some light...What could happen? That's the only problem. I didn't know. Beyond my range of vision some monster could be waiting to attack. Or, it would be someone from Organization XIII. Just one more step and they would have me.

I don't really know how long I've been afraid of the dark. Just that if no one is with me when I am in places like these I freak out. I don't even remember aquiring the fear. It's just that it happened. But I would never admit it of course. When I was in The Organization I remember that a whole bunch of them decided that it would be funny, locking the smallest and youngest of them in a one mile in every direction, pitch black room. They had told me that Xemnas wanted to have a word with me, and when I opened the door they had pushed me in. Then they slammed the door shut and I heard the metalic click of the lock ring throughout my prison.

It took a couple of seconds before the effects started kicking in. I would imagine that someone was behind me, my breathing would become eratic, I would break out in a cold sweat, and I would go completely insane. Thank God Axel opened the door only a minute afterwords. I fell back into his arms, sobbing and shaking like a child, looking as white as a ghost. He told me that he wouldn't tell anyone that I had this problem if I didn't want anyone to know. I had agreed, and we never spoke of it again. I made sure that no one would ever find out that that was my weakness. I remember Axel talking to me just once about how odd that I could act scarred, but have no heart. He only mentioned this once and that was only a few days after the 'incident', and now that I had actual emotions it would be worse.

But, I did manage to tiptoe down the stairs and into the livingroom, where I let out a relieved sigh. Riku, Kairi, Donald, and Goofy were all camping out down here. I was glad because I had started feeling anxious and scarred. Kairi and Riku of course were sharing a couch, all snuggled up against each other, and Donald lay spalyed out over the whole other couch. Goofy, was curled into a ball on the floor, but he seemed perfectly fine. I smiled as I looked over at them, but glarred at the other two. If anyone made Sora cry, they would feel sorry for it. That's when I got my mischievious idea.

I grabbed a stray sharpie pen off of the coffe table and slunk over to the sleeping lovebirds. When I had finnished I stood back and admired my handywork. Not bad. Not bad at all Roxas. I put the sharpie back gently and made my way out of the livingroom and into the semi-lit kitchen. Thank goodness there was some light. And then through the entrance hall. It wasn't that long, so I didn't suffer much. And when I opened the door I gasped.

I had no idea how beautiful rain really was. The droplets would splash against the concrete and create thousands of tiny ripples. They were like diamonds raining down from the heavens. Shimmering in the small light that was being cast out from behind me. My heart skipped a beat as I watched it all unfold before me. And when I closed my eyes the sound was magnified. A thunderous herd running right by you, an applauding audience at the Opera House, and hundreds of drums rolled together to create one giant, beautiful sound. Truely spectacular.

But, I was still a little hesitant about going out there. I stepped under the overhang and held my breath. So close, just one more step and I'm there. I picked up my foot and extended it outwards.

My whole body went into joyous shock! It wasn't like anything I had felt before. And I found myself laughing as the drops landed on me, drenching everything from head to foot. My hair hung stringily in my eyes, and my t-shirt stuck to my chest. I spun around feeling the water swirl around me, following in my strange dance. Finally I just stood, with my arms hanging at my side, and my head facing upwards.

"You act like this is the first time you've seen rain." someone said from the doorway.

I whipped around wiping at my eyes slightly to get a better view, and when I saw who it was I stammered, "S-sora! I-I thought you were asleep!"

He smiled, stepping out into the rain to join me. He had put on a shirt and was walking slowly towards me. My heart rate got faster again, and as I watched him approach I said, "Well, to answer your question, I-"

"You really havn't seen the rain before?" he asked his eyes growing wide as he came to a hault next to me.

I nodded and he whistled. He chuckled slightly and said, "I saw what you did to Riku and Kairi. You know you didn't have to do that."

I turned away, looking back up at the sky and I said, a small smile creasing my lips, "I know, but I just had to. That's all."

He seemed to understand because he too looked up at the sky and watched as the rain came hurtling at us like tiny bombs spiraling towards their targets. Standing there, next to Sora, it was magical. I don't know why, but I started crying. It was like when I was lying in bed and I woke up in my own body for the first time and I found Sora next to me. I felt the tears spill over and fall down my cheeks. I'm glad that it was raining. That way no one could tell. But somehow Sora did, and I hadn't even made a sound.

"Roxas, what's wrong?" he asked placing a hand on my shoulder.

I felt that wierd hapy feeling, like I had the other time. Feeling happy, but it was multiplied a hundred times and dipped in sweet, deep, dark, chocolate for good measure. And then the pain, it wasn't as severe as it had been those other times, but it still hurt, and plus I was still weak. So I stumbled slightly as I struggled to breathe. Why did it have to hurt? Have to ask Merlin that, so for now I can deal. And besides, it seemed like it was getting better. The burning spread again, roaring into my head and drowning out the beautiful music nature was playing.

Sora caught me and steadied me. He expertly placed one of my arms over his shoulders, and slipped an arm around my waist. My legs didn't seem to want to move anymore. And when Sora started to carry me off to the house I said faintly, "Can we still stay out here?"

He looked down at me for a second and he replied, "Sure."

He set me down gently on the step that lead up to the front door, and sat next to me. Glancing at me every now and then to make sure I wan't going to go into a sesiure or something. But, after five minutes of sitting in silence I looked at him out of the corner of my own eye as he stared, and smiled. He blushed, knowing that he had been caught looking, and looked away. I needed to say something to lighten the mood.

"You know...I don't know how to swim either." I said slowly, putting my hands behind my head and leaning back.

He looked at me in surprise, "No joke?"

"No joke."

"Wow...well then, I will have to teach you!" he declaired.

"You would?"

"Yeah. It'd be no problem."

His eyes shinned as I looked into them, and it would have been a perfect momment to make my move, but I didn't. I didn't have a chance to that is. The door flew open behind us, and out stepped Kairi. She was glarring daggers at us. It looked like fire would spurt out of her mouth if she really wanted it to.

"YOU TWO ARE SUPPOSED TO BE IN BED! WHAT ON EARTH ARE YOU DOING OUT HERE IN THE WET AND COLD!"

As soon as she yelled, everyone seemed to wake up. Soon they had all spilled out of the front door and surrounded us, pushing us back into the house. Every one of them scolding at the same time. It was such a blur, I barely payed attention. Instead I starred out of the corner of my eye at Sora. He was blushing, bashful as ever, and looking around at everyone smiling sheepishly. Just like him. I looked away quickly though when he glanced over in my direction. Did he notice I was starring? He didn't say anything about it, so maybe he didn't.

When we got to the stairs, it was only Kairi who led us up them. I was giggling the entire way up, and couldn't stop. It was too funny. No one noticed in the dark, but now the lights in the staircase illuminated her face, I could see my artwork clearly. A mustache, and goatee were scribbled crookedly onto her face. And when Sora noticed that I was trying to stifle my laughs he raised one eyebrow. I pointed, and as soon as he saw he snorted, placing a hand up to control himself.

Kairi whipped around and scruitinised us through slits as eyes. I felt just like a kid laughing at their teacher because they sat on some glue. Not only that, but Kairi kept stepping back and pushing us slightly to go faster. And when we got into our room, she made sure that we were under the covers of our separate beds. I was surprised that she didn't kiss our foreheads after tucking us in.

When the lights were out and the door had closed, I realized that I had forgotten to take off my wet clothes. I threw the covers off and stood up. Sora's eyes flew open and he looked at me questioningly. I pointed to myself and plucked at my clothes, he seemed to get the picture.

"Could I borrow some clothes? I don't know where Merlin put mine." I asked him, striding over to the dressor.

Sora's POV:

"No problem. Grab whatever." I said, not realizing what was in store for me.

Roxas slid open the top drawer, and pulled out a tight white t-shirt. Then he grabbed a pair of long basket ball shorts that I knew were in the very back since I hadn't worn them in forever. And then, he surprised me by reaching up and grabbing the back of his t-shirt. Soon he began to slowly peel the wet rag of clothing off of him, exposing his smooth back. He yanked it fully off, his hair getting ruffled and stuck up in the back. He was...beautiful. To think back on it, I have never seen him without a shirt on. I've barely seen him anyways.

I blushed as he turned around and saw me starring. I jumped out of my bed and looked around for a towel and some clean clothes for me. Great, now he's going to think I'm some kind of perv. A wonderful start with your new roommate Sora. I finally found two of my light blue towels, one I threw to Roxas (trying not to look at his front since he had turned around to catch it), and fervishly began to dry out my hair. With my head in the towel I breathed a sigh of relief. At leased he hadn't been so appauled that he ran out of the room.

Throwing the now wet towel on the ground, I picked up my own dry clothes and began to put them on. Taking off my own damp shirt, I quickly substituted it for the dry one. And when I was changing out my pants I had hopped around to face Roxas and was now standing only in my boxers. And when I looked up, I saw that Roxas had put on the shirt and was looking out of the corner of his eye at me. And then he looked away.

Did that mean that he...?

I spun around and made it look like I didn't notice him looking and put on the new pair of pants. When I got done I said softly, "I'm going to bed now, so...goodnight."

"'Night." he said.

I nearly ran over to my bed, and I really did throw myself under the covers, just so I could get away from this embarassment. But, I was a little naughty when Roxas thought I was asleep. I opened my eyes just a crack, I was curious. I don't even know why I was doing it in the first place.

Roxas was faced away however, so I didn't get to see what I really wanted to, but what I did see was enough. He slid his delicate fingers into the elastic wasteband of his boxers and slipped them down. I gasped a little, but thank god he didn't hear. I nearly fainted. There it was. His round, tight ass was only half of the room away. Exposed, and tantalizing me. What was I thinking! It was Roxas! And besides, I've seen plenty of guys' asses in the locker room back at school on Destiny Islands. What was so special about his?

I squeezed my eyes shut and cursed myself, saying that it was completely wrong of me to be thinking about him like that. I rolled over onto the other side of the bed, and after a while I heard Roxas walk back across the room, get under his covers, and switch off the side lamp. I couldn't fall asleep for a while after that, but once I heard the soothing sound of Roxas' slow breathing I was almost knocked out.

Roxas' POV:

Another beautiful morning. Just like the last few have been. The rain had stopped somewhere near four this morning. I had woken up because of it, it had become so quiet. Like when I had ventured out into the hallway earlier. After a couple minutes of laying there I decided that I was being a lazzy ass. I went to Sora's closet and pulled out a longsleeved black turtleneck, white pants, and a pair of black and white shoes.

I needed to get outside again. Breathe. I strode over to the window. Opening it silently, I slipped one leg out, followed closely by my torso, and then my other foot. I scooted along slowly, with my arms held out to keep my balance as I scaled the side of the house on a small ledge. I jumped onto the roof of a small building next to us and continued to make my way down to the street, and then towards the Restoration Area.

It was so spectacular. The sunrise was just ending, and a slight mist hung in the air. Glinting with soft colors as it floated by me. Walking was what I had needed for sure. Like a far off memory finally come back. It was just like it had been back in Twilight Town. Going off on little adventures with Hayner, Pence, and Olette. I havn't seen them in forever it seems like. I miss them. I wonder if they ever have enough time to think of me? But wait, the friends that I know arn't really reall. They were computer simulated copies. The real ones have no idea who I am.

I looked around and to my surprise I saw that my legs had carried me all the way to the Postern. That was pretty fast. I remember when Sora had been met by Sephiroth here. It was rather eerie now that I'm here all by myself. And I shivered slightly as the building behind me almost seemed to sigh. Wrapping my arms around myself I thought about Sora. It seemed to calm me down, but I was still a little freaked. I leaned against the railing and looked out. Wind brushing past my skin and ruffling my hair slightly.

Sora...why do you make me feel like I do? Like I always want to be with you? I ran a hand through my hair sighing and rubbing my eyes. Maybe I was wrong. What if these feelings that I get are untrue. What if I'm lying to myself in order to forget about Axel and his death. But Axel is nothing like Sora. No...I would die for Sora if I had to. He means that much to me. I don't want to see him hurt, ever.

"Gaaahh!"

I let out a strangled yell, as I fell to my knees. It was happening again. That misleading feeling, and then a spike right through me. Beads of sweat appeared on my forehead and I began to shake uncontrollably. What do I do? There's no one around. What will happen to me? Sora. Sora it hurts! Please...help!

As soon as the shaking died down I opened my eyes, and fought to keep them open as I stood up. It was still pounding and causing me terrible pain, but I needed to get help. No one would know where I am. I stepped forwards and planted one foot after the other. This trip was definitly going to take alot longer than it was to get out here. And I don't even know if I can last much longer. I sputtered slightly as I tried to breath and I felt something wet trickle down my cheek from the corner of my mouth. Reaching a hand up, I touched it and brought it back down to look. The tips of my fingers had blood on them.

Sora...save me...

a/n: AAAAAHHHH! Roxas! I hope he will be okay! I will need many reviews to keep going on with the story, I mean I am just soooo distraught! I'm practically traumatized...;)
