A/N: Alright this chapter was a bitch and so was life so that is why it took me a week to get a new chapter out to you guys. I thought I got hired for a second job, turns out I might not have a second job. I'll know later. So the next chapter is the last one. I'll see about having it out by Friday at the latest.

Legal Stuff: I own nothing.

Axel was rummaging through the cupboards in the kitchen looking for something to snack on. He was so hungry it wouldn't matter if he had something before they left. He was wearing a dark red silk shirt with a black dress jacket, the top few buttons of the shirt were left open. His pants were just a simple black, he hoped this was the look nice Roxas had meant. He turned around when Roxas cleared his throat. Axel dropped the loaf of bread he had been holding when he saw Roxas. "So, how do I look?" Roxas asked looking up at Axel.

Despite the tired look in Roxas' usually bright shining eyes, Axel could hardly tell this was the person he had carried on his shoulder the day before. Roxas' hair was still damp making it slightly limp, his white dress shirt was half covered by the blazer which hugged his frame. His tie was blue, and his pants were loose but not baggy. "Molestable." It was the first thing that came to Axel's hazy mind as he looked his lover over. He shook his head as Roxas started laughing at him. "I mean sexy...never mind, if I keep talking I'll make it worse."

"I'm glad you like it." Roxas continued giggling as he walked over to Axel. He pulled the taller man down into a kiss. "Let's go before we're to late. You go down to the jeep I'll be down in a second." Axel only nodded dumbly as he did what he was told. Roxas however went into their bedroom to retrieve the ring box from his pants pocket. He slipped it into his blazer pocket and headed down to Axel and the jeep.

Axel stood outside the jeep waiting for Roxas, he didn't know where they were going, so he waited. Roxas came over to Axel who was staring at him again. "I'll drive, you'll probably get us in an accident." Roxas reasoned as he tapped Axel on the shoulder.

Axel nodded before he leaned down and kissed Roxas. He moved after a moment to get in the passengers side of the Jeep. Roxas laughed as he watched, it was so weird for Axel to be so submissive. Axel shook his head, "What?" He was smiling as the sound of Roxas laughing though.

"Nothing." Roxas answered climbing in beside the redhead. "Your just being cute." He started the jeep backing out of the space.

"I'm allowed to be cute if I want to be." Axel pouted crossing his arms over his chest. "Anyway, you're the one looking so sexy I can't think straight."

Roxas laughed again as he drove on, "That's probably a good thing Axel. I mean you're as far from straight as they come."

"Your one to talk." Axel responded quickly; he didn't snap angrily, he was just pointing out the obvious.

"I didn't say it was a bad thing, Ax." Roxas grinned as he pulled into a parking lot. "We're here." Roxas turned to look at Axel so he could see the reaction.

Axel was looking at the ornate building before him. "How..."

"Come on, we're a few minutes late." Roxas already jumped out of the Jeep and was making his way to the door. Axel was following him now. He held the door after Roxas opened it.

"You're late!" A sharp female voice snapped at the pair.

"Nice to see you to Larxene." Roxas grinned at her, unfazed by her rudeness. "I can show Axel back."

Larxene shook her head blocking his path, "Roxas, you are not here to work. Just relax and talk to him." She nodded toward Axel, then grabbed a set of menus. "If you will follow me, please." It sounded almost like she choked on the last word. She turned walking away from them. Roxas shrugged and followed her.

Roxas was only mildly surprised when she lead them out the door at the back of the dining room. He was however shocked when she opened one of the private dining rooms to see the table covered with rose petals. That wasn't the only difference he noticed. The electric lights of the room were replaced with oil lamps and candles. The normally soft classical music had been replace with 'Moonlight Desires' by Gowan. He grinned at Larxene before mouthing 'Thank you' to her.

"This is your room." Larxene continued as she had been advised to do. "I'll leave you to look over the menu. Tifa will be your server this afternoon." She laid the menus on the table and walked away from them. Roxas took a seat on one side of the table.

"Roxas..." Axel was still recovering from his own shock. "How..."

Roxas looked up at the still standing Axel. "Sit down Axel" Roxas motioned to the other seat.

"No, Roxas what are we doing here? We can't afford this." Axel slumped into the other seat anyway.

"I can Axel, but that is not something to worry about." Roxas remarked, "Just get whatever you want to eat."

"Roxas, I know something is going on." Axel stated flatly, watching Roxas closely.

"Whatever could you mean?" Roxas mocked innocently, something he was good at when he needed it.

Tifa knocked softly before she entered the room. She was carrying a tray with her which she sat on a side table. She turned to them and started to laugh. "Oh, Larxene." She shook her head taking the menus they still hadn't looked at. "You won't be needing these." She put them beside the tray before lifting two plates. "To start we have bacon wrapped scollops and spinach artichoke dip with flat bread." Tifa announced before scooping up the water pitcher from her tray and placing it on the table between them. She leaned over and whispered into Roxas' ear, his face turned beat read in a moment. Tifa turned away grabbing her tray and the menus before bouncing out of the room.

"We're not paying for anything." Roxas grinned at Axel. "It seems someone who knows us well took the liberty of ordering and paying for us."

Axel nodded, "Kairi is sneaky like that." He laughed at the idea.

"It wasn't Kairi." Roxas smirked as he grabbed one of the scollops.

"Then who?" Axel asked curiously as he also started to eat.

"Our boss." Roxas answered with a smile. "It's probably a good thing you called or texted Reno last night."

"Roxas, can we forget last night happened?" Axel was looking at Roxas.

"Uhm, sure." Roxas answered with a nodded as they finished off the food that was meant as an appetizer. Tifa came in again shortly after that. She placed her tray on the side table like last time. Turning to them she took away the empty plates.

"How were the apps?" Tifa asked smiling at them.

"Good." Roxas answered, he really hadn't eaten that much of them.

"Appetizing." Axel said with a laugh, his stomach wasn't nearly as grumpily as it had been.

"Ah, good." She lifted the bottle of wine that was in her hand to them, "I have a lovely bottle of red wine to accompany the rest of your meal. Would you like me to pour?"

"No thank you." Axel said extending his hand to take the bottle from her. She handed it to him before turning back to the tray once more.

She lifted two plates and placed them on the table one in front of each of them. "Today we have a brazed duck breast served with garlic roasted potatoes and a medially of summer vegetables." She winked at Axel before leaning over and whispering something to Roxas.

"No." Roxas answered her, "Tell them to mind their own." Tifa nodded as she took tray and left.

"So who followed us?" Axel asked as he gathered his knife and fork. He cut into the duck as he waited for the answer.

"Oh just my brothers. Apparently Cloud has the day off so he, Sora, and Riku are bugging Tifa." Roxas as he followed Axel's lead and started eating. They didn't say much after that as they ate. Axel having poured himself a glass of wine knowing Roxas would curl his nose at it. Roxas was happy to drink the water that was left for them.

Roxas pushed his plate away after Axel had finished eating. His plate was still more than half full. Axel looked at the plate a moment before looking up at Roxas. "You haven't been eating." He stated now noticing the dull grayness of Roxas' eyes. "Roxas things have to change. Your making your self sick, Love."

"I know Ax." Roxas said tiredly looking down as he sipped on the water.

"If you know, than why do this to yourself?" Axel was really worried about Roxas now, a sleeping disorder was one thing, but to couple it with an eating disorder. That could only lead to trouble, and he didn't like it at all.

Roxas stood up shakily moving to Axel's side of the table. "I have my reasons." He smiled softly before he got on one knee, he pulled the ring box out of his pocket. Axel turned to him watching as Roxas opened the box the reveal the white gold ring. "Axel... I love you." Roxas stammered slightly, actually doing this was proving to be a lot harder than he had thought, "Will you...marry me?"

End Note:

How will Axel react?

Does Axel know what Sora was really doing?

Does Roxas?

Does Riku?

How does Tifa know Roxas?

These questions and more answered next time in Surprises!

PS: I know I said last time that I think the next one is the last one. But this seemed like a good place to stop. I know it's a bad cliff hanger but... oh well I'm not really worried about it.
