Chapter Seven: Love Is a Complicated Thing
(Roxas's P.O.V.)
It was now Friday, and I would soon be heading off to Xion's. I could hardly wait. While packing away a few things, a thought accrued to me. A few nights ago Axel said he loved me. Though, was it right of me to say it back? I'm not sure if I really love him back the way he thinks I do. It's only been three months. That's a bit fast in my opinion. Then I remembered most people from his era fell in love quickly. Seeing as they didn't live as long as people do now a days. Well if they were human that is.
I noticed my hair was getting gross, so I decided to take a shower. Didn't want to go to Xion's house looking like a grease-ball. As I head for the bathroom I saw my Dad. I knew since he was a Detective he could get me more information on that Manor. More than Google ever could. "Hey Dad could you do me a favor?"
He pushed up his glasses. "Sure, what is it Roxas?"
I had to think of a way for him to get me the information I wanted. Without him asking a lot of questions. "I'm doing a History report on the Furga Manor... I was wondering if you could get some things on it for me. Google hasn't been very helpful. Please Dad?" I was hoping he buy the bogus lie. He gave me a strange look. I kept a straight face.
"Alright, but you'd better say it's from Google. If anyone knew I went through those files without permission I'd get fired." My Dad acted like it wasn't a big deal. His whole life he'd been a goody two-shoes. And having me ask him to steal case information; I guess made his day. I was happy he agreed to help me with this '''report.''''
"Thanks Dad. No worries I won't let anyone know you got it for me." I set my things in the bathroom.
"Good, but it may take me a few days to get my hands on it. When's this report due though?" There came the question, but I knew I'd come up with another lie. I was really wanting that information.
"Before Spring Break... So that's next week on Wednesday. I just want to get it done and out-of-the-way. You know me." I got out my hairdryer and brush, then set it on the bathroom counter.
"Yep, well let me know when you want to head to your friend's house."
"Ok." After that he walked away. I shut the bathroom door and took my shower.
At about seven-thirty my Dad dropped me off at Xion's house. There she was waiting for me at the door. I stepped inside, and took off my shoes. Xion greets me and leads me to her bedroom. When the two of us enter her room. I felt the need to ask her something. Seeing as she's known Axel a bit longer than I have. And I know Kendel won't say anything to me. "Hey Xion. Has Axel said anything to you about some guy named Maxwell?" I set my bag on her floor.
"Hm? Once, but it was brief. He just said that he was a bad man, and to watch out for him. Then something about him being his former master. Other than that he's pretty closed off about that guy."
I sighed, what she had told me was what I had already known. "Oh alright..."
"And before you ask, I know nothing more about him than you do." There was a certain tone to her voice. I bothered not asking anything else. I felt a little disappointed. I really was hoping to know more about Axel. However, I decided that I wouldn't think about him this weekend. I'll just hangout with Xion, and dig a bit later on when I have the information I asked for.
Throughout most of the night, her and I watched slasher movies. Afterwords, she let me take a peek at that spell book of hers. Sadly I couldn't read any of it. It was written in Latin I think. Hell if I knew. I only read and spoke one language. English."I had no idea you knew Latin Xion..."
"That's not Latin Roxas. It's Magical Encryption. It's there in case a mortal gets their hands on it." Xion took the book and set it in her lap. "I just let you look in it because you kept bugging me about it for weeks." Xion stuck her tongue at me. I gave her a sarcastic smile.
"Now I feel like an idiot. Thanks a lot. You're a great friend." I said sarcastically. Xion laughed. Then she closed the large spell book, and put it back on it's stand.
"Well it's getting late. Why don't you, and I head to bed?" Xion suggested. I was feeling a bit sleepy, but not to where I would pass out.
I yawned and looked at her clock. '12:45am' it read. "Yeah and maybe tomorrow we can we can get some ice-cream, and some fast food for lunch."
Xion snorted."You have such an unhealthy addiction to fattening foods. How the hell are you so skinny?"
"Fast metabolism. I hate it, I'm five pounds underweight." I sighed, as I went into my bag, and grab my pajamas. I quickly change into them, and stuffed my everyday clothes in my backpack. I sat on the floor afterwords.
"Hope Axel doesn't break you in half." A huge smirk crept its way across Xion lips. It was then I realized what she was implying.
I could feel my face heating up rather quickly as a perverted image ran though my head. I covered my face out of embarrassment, and felt some blood trickle out of my nose. I heard Xion laughing. Then a thump, my guess was she was rolling on the floor. I put my hands down, and grabbed a tissue off her nightstand to wipe my nose. I threw away the bloodied tissue, and just stared at Xion as she laughed herself silly. "Are you done?" I rolled my eyes.
Xion sat up and wiped her tears away. "Yeah I'm done. My god, if Axel heard that he'd be laughing just as hard."
"I bet he would. Seeing as he's kind of a pervert." I crossed my arms. Still trying to shake away that thought I had.
"Roxas, he's not as bad as most people can be. And besides you're the one who took my comment, and made it a dirty thought. So who's the pervert then hm?" She lightly punched my shoulder, and chuckled. My face was still flushed, I sighed, and lay back on the carpet. Xion then threw a pillow, and blanket at me. "Good night." She then crawled into her bed, then turned off her lamp.
The room was dark, and quiet. I made myself comfy under the given blanket. For a while I just laid there. Staring into the darkness. Without realizing it I'd fallen asleep.
*Dream Sequence*
Some how or another I ended up at a park area. "How did I get here? Could have sworn I was asleep at Xion's... Better get back before someone 'surprises' me..."
After a while I noticed that I'd been led in a circle. I started to worry, but no matter what path I took I couldn't get out of this place. That's when I heard a voice. It was familiar but it wasn't comforting. "Hello there Roxas." It was that weirdo Maxwell. I turned around, he was covered in blood. I didn't bother to ask why he was there. I just ran, but like in the beginning I just kept going in circles.
"Isn't there an end to this place?!" I shouted. Then a hand touched my shoulder. My body froze. Once again a vampire had trapped me... Only this was one that'll actually murder me.
His arm crept around me, he pulled me back against him. "I can see why Axel's taken a liking to you. Your scent is wonderful. But I wonder, once you learn of what he's done. Will you still feel for him like you do now?"
"A person shouldn't be... judged based on their past mistakes..." I was shaking with fear.
"Oh? Is that so?" He laughed. " Well then Roxas, we'll just have to see. What one says, and what one does are two different things." Just what was he trying to say? I could never hate someone because of their past. Mistakes are made in order to make a person better. (Obviously.) I regained my ability to move but it was too late. His teeth had already bitten into me. I screamed.
*End Sequence*
"Gah!" I shot up from where I was sleeping. Breathing really heavy. I put my hand on my neck, and looked around the room "Thank god it was only a nightmare. But it felt so real." Then something furry rubbed against me. It was Minx, Xion's little fur ball. I pet the cat, and looked over at Xion's bed, which was empty. I folded up the blankets neatly, and changed into some regular clothes. After that I spent the morning helping Xion around her house.
Around one o'clock Xion and I are ready to go out. Then her mother caught us. "And just where are you two going?" She didn't sound upset about us heading out.
"Out to lunch Mom. McDonald's... Roxas needs to get fat." Xion joked. I just laughed.
"That's a long walk. Why don't you ask Zack to take you?" Carol suggested as she put her black hair in a ponytail. It was much longer that Xion's, and it was really shiny. I never thought witches could be so pretty. Makes me question everything I've watched, and read about supernaturals. They're not as exact as they're portayed. Which is pretty cool.
I heard Xion groan, "Mom, Zack won't take us unless I get him something. And he gets the most expensive thing on the menu."
Carol laughed, "Oh I see. Then I'll take you in a few minutes." Xion nodded, and sat on the couch tying her boots. I just waited by the door fiddling with my cell phone.
After a while Carol drove Xion and I to McDonald's. Once we were inside, her and I wait in line and looked up at the menu. As we get to the front, we ordered then found a table and sat down. Awaiting for our food to be done. Something then occurs to me as we're seated. The fact I told someone I loved them, even though I'm confused about it. I sighed and slumped back in the seat. Xion sipped her drink and stared at me. "Something bugging yah?"
"Yeah, there is something bothering me." I bit my bottom lip and took a look outside. "The other night. Axel told me he loved me... And I said it back."
Xion had a smirk on her face. "Aw that's so sweet, but why is that bugging you?"
I sighed and sipped my soda. "I'm not sure it was right of me to say that I did. I was caught up in the moment, and it just slipped out..."
I heard a groan, then out of nowhere Xion slapped me. At first I was mad, but I could understand why she slapped me. "You moron. How could you use that phrase so lightly? Now he has this idea in his head that you love him for real. You shouldn't mess with someone else's feelings, just because you're unsure of your own." Her words had venom in them. She looked very angry that I had done such an asinine thing.
I sighed. "I already feel like an ass ok?"
"You'd better tell him the truth." Her eyes burned into my soul. I felt a bit scared... seeing as she could turn me into an animal at any given time.
"He'll be so mad at me... Damn me, and my big adorable mouth..." I sighed, and realized just what a mess I was in. *I need to start thinking before I speak. Sadly that's one of my many downfalls.*
After lunch Xion and I went to get ice-cream. We talked about Spring Break coming up next week. Which I couldn't wait for, because that meant more time with my friends and boyfriend. That is, if he ever decides to speak to me when and if I fessed up. *No matter how I explain myself he'll still be pissed at me. Can't say I'll blame him. Maybe I shouldn't say anything.. No, that wouldn't be right. I don't like lying. Especially to someone who really cares about me...Ugh how do I get myself in these situations!? Oh yeah my mouth... *
Sunday came, and I was driven home by Carol. My Dad was working a big case tonight; I guessed he wouldn't be home till late.I told Carol thanks and went inside. I walked into my room, only to be surprised by Axel hanging down from my ceiling. I screamed, and I swore I jumped about five feet in the air. He screamed too, and fell flat on his face. "Goddamn you! Why do you always do that?!" I finally caught my breath.
Axel picked himself off the floor, and had a grin on his face. Then started laughing; however, I wasn't amused. I shot him a glare, and walked up to him. I tried looking intimidating, but failed... (Seeing as he's almost a full foot taller than me.) He still had that stupid grin on his face. "Sorry, I just wanted to surprise you. I've missed you." *Ah fuck, he's in a good mood...*
"Yeah, I've... missed you too." Suddenly butterflies filled my stomach. I looked down at the floor feeling shameful. I felt him tilt my head up. He looked concerned.
"Is something bothering you?" He ran his hand through my hair.
*YES!* "No." I lied, because I was feeling rather... rotten. I didn't want to ruin his good mood...
"You sure love?" He pulled me into an embrace. I returned the embrace. The butterflies still in my stomach.
*NO!* "Yeah... Everything's ok." I said with a fake smile. Axel stepped back and pulled me with him. We fell back on my bed and he laughed. The guilt was eating away at me. He was all excited to see me, and here I am holding back a lie... Call me a jackass...
"Are you sure you're ok? You're usually just as happy to see me after a few days of no contact." He played with my hair while still smiling. Before I could say anything he shifted his weight and ended up on top of me. I felt my face heat up and my heart racing. (He had that effect on me.) Once again I tried to say something, but I ended up being kissed ever so passionately. After a few seconds he pulled back. "I love you." *Damn it! I can't take it anymore...*
I bit my lower lip and couldn't look him in the eye. "About that... Uhm.." *Well here goes my greatest relationship!*
He got off me, and stood there, arms crossed. His once cheerful attitude changed to angry. I sat up. "You're supposed to say it back.. Unless you didn't mean it?" I felt so bad, I still couldn't look him in the eye. How could I? I said something that I didn't mean... And led him to believe that I did.
"Well... No... It's just.. damn it.. I'm sorry. I was caught up in the moment.. and it slipped out.. I don't blame you if you never want to talk to me again." I could feel tears welling up inside me. I wasn't going to let them out though. I heard an angry sigh and scuffing on my floor. I looked up to see a very angry vampire. *He's going to kill me now... Isn't he?*
"I don't believe you. You flat-out lied to me! Yet I've been honest with you." That's where I started to get mad. There were things I didn't know about him that I felt I should know. Like that whole Maxwell thing. What if he tries coming for me again?!
"Really?! You've been honest huh? I'm sure you've been lying about some things. Hiding things that are probably important." *What am I doing?! Damn me! Shut up!* I stood up, my blood boiling and my hands turned to fists. Not that I stood a chance.
Axel rolled his eyes, and grabbed my left arm. He pushed up my sleeve, which reviled my old scars. "I saw these when we first started dating. I wanted to ask, but I figured it was personal. Though down the line I realized why these were here. Also, when I told you I loved you; I meant it." I yanked my arm away, and pulled the sleeve back down. "Do your friends even know what happened to you? Bet they don't. Because you're scared of what they'll think." He was right, I was scared of what they'd think of me... if they knew. "All that I've said about me is all you need to know. Thought you were ok with that. Guess I was wrong."
I was now very upset. "Just go!" *No, stay! Don't leave!* I turned away, trying not to cry. The room went silent, that was until I heard a swishing sound and my window slam shut. I turned back around, and Axel was gone. I ran over to the window and opened it. I poked my head out. "Wait, I'm sorry... come back...Please?" Sadly, he was nowhere in sight, gone away into the shadows of the night. I calmly closed my window, and just stood there. I shook my head, and the tears just came out. That's when I fell to the floor and assumed the fetal position.
I had no idea how long I was sitting on the floor. I never even bothered to look at the clock. I felt a hand on my shoulder, for a second my heart leapt with joy. I thought Axel had come back, I then looked to see my Dad standing there. That's when I sighed. He knelt beside me. "Hey kiddo what's the matter?"
"I'm an ass." I made a sniffling sound. My body stiff from sitting so long. I didn't care though... This sort of thing was bound to happen to me. (My relationship falling apart I mean.)
"How are you an ass, Roxas?"
"I lied to Axel. I told him I loved him, but I didn't mean it. And now he hates me." I pulled my hood over my head and rested it on my knees. "Not that I blame him..."
I heard him sigh. "Boy oh boy. You kids use that term love so loosely. I doubt Axel hates you Roxas... He seems to really care about you, no matter what squabbles you two get into. Just give him time to cool off. Let him come back to you on his own." *I don't think he will.* He patted me on the head with something. It felt like a stack of papers. "Anyway, I have that information you wanted." I heard the papers hit the desk.
"Thanks Dad... Can I be alone now?" I said in a weak voice, and forced myself to stand. I made my way to the desk, there sat a thick tan folder. I debated whether or not to open it. I looked at my Dad, he gave me a smile, and nodded. As he left the room, he shut the door behind him.
I picked up the thick folder and open it up. I sat in my desk, and read through the file. I saw many interesting things. About Axel's parents, and about his past life. "Huh? Furga parents found dead after a weeks disappearance. The two bodies belonged to Kyle and his wife Fura. Two shot-gun shots to their chests. Death was quick. Their three kids Lea, Raygen, and Mina were nowhere to be found? It's believed the killer kept them, or disposed of them elsewhere." *I was right they were killed. How awful. But why did my Dad say they just vanished? Guess stories change after so many years.*
I flipped through more papers basically saying the case went cold. Then something caught my eye. An article was kept in here too. "After many years the three missing Furga children are found alive, and healthy. They were in the care of a family friend until they felt it was safe to appear again." The more I read the more I became interested. *Who was this family friend? Why wasn't he suspected?... Hm? The notes aren't as detailed as they would be now obviously. That or the rest of it got misplaced over the years after the place was renovated. But why keep what's left of this case? Probably because they were a good part of this town...*
I continued to read more of the notes. "Local jewelery store gets reopened by the three Furga children. Who are now full-grown, and are ready to take on the world. They say their father would have wanted them to continue his work.. The main owner was the son Lea" I reach for more notes, and articles. I just skimmed them because they weren't that important.. But then something else caught my attention."With most of the money, Lea, and his sisters gave it to charity, and churches..." I read further down the page.. "It was sad to see the boy die so young. He'll always be remembered for his kindness."
As I was about to close it, something fell out. I picked it up and it was an old picture of Axel. The photo was very aged, and faded a bit. Just like most of the ink in the notes. Axel's hair was much tamer, and he was without the eyeliner. Though he had that same sexy smile, and still wore all that black. I kind of wanted to keep this, but my Dad's ass would suffer for it. "So you were always a kind person, and so much happened to you. Axel, I am so sorry for lying... I hope you'll forgive me." I placed everything back the way my father gave it to me.
I threw myself on to my bed. Just as I got comfortable my phone goes off. I picked it up and it was my twin brother Sora. I answered it. "Hello? Sora?"
"Long time no speak there Rox. How have you been?" There was so much excitement in his voice.
"Well I was good up until Axel and I fought." I said to him in a sad tone.
"Man, that sucks. I was hoping to meet this guy. The way you talk about him makes him sound cool." I heard rustling in the back ground. Then Mom's chihuahua Chester started barking. *Damn I hate that dog. He pisses on everything, and barks constantly!* "Chester shut up! Jesus dog... Sorry about that Roxas. Anyway, when can I come over? Spring Break is coming up next week? Maybe then? Totally up to you and Dad though."
I looked over at my clock. It was past ten. "Sure, that's fine with me. I'll ask Dad in a bit... But for the love of god.. Don't let Mom bring Chester with her. Dad will have a sneezing fit. I hope she doesn't 'visit me' too long." I had an attitude when ever mentioning our Mother.
I heard Sora laugh on the other end. "I can try, but you know she brings Chester with her everywhere."
I snorted. "Pfft... Tell me about it. I swear she only got that dog to annoy me."
"Maybe Mom did. Because you weren't the right amount of cute, and annoyance." He joked, because he knew how Mom treated me. Like I wasn't supposed to be born.
I laughed too, "yeah.. That's totally the reason."
At about eleven I got off the phone with my brother; then got ready for bed. I turned out the light, and just laid there. Thinking of Axel, and how I could make it up to him. Though I don't think I ever will. I really screwed up, I wouldn't blame him if he never wanted to be near me again. I was used to being mad at. I was used to this feeling of emptiness.
A Week an a Half Later...
It was the last day of school till next Monday. I grabbed my backpack from my locker, and looked outside. It wasn't raining nor was there anyone waiting for me under the shady tree. As I was walking outside, I just had to bump into Seifer. I was not in the mood to deal with him. I've had a rough week already. And there was Naminé, "You've been here three months and you still don't know your place. You still have a chance to redeem yourself though." She winked. I, however, rolled my eyes.
I glared at her. Then at Seifer and his minions. I knew what they were scheming. Once again Naminé was trying to get me to like her. Even if I were straight, I still wouldn't date her. "No thanks, I make it a plan not to associate with hoes and ass holes like you and your gang." I tried shoving through them, but ended up getting punched in the shoulder then in the face. I was then kicked on the floor.
Seifer, and the rest of them left. I wiped the blood from my lip. "Fucking jerks" I stood up, and walked away. I waved bye to Xion and Hayner and started walking home..
As I passed the Manor I stopped. I went up to the gate, and peered inside. I reached in as if to grab something. I looked up at the upper windows hoping to see a shadow. I saw nothing, "It's been over a week now. I hate myself for what I did. I'm so sorry baby." I pulled myself away from the gate and began walking. Then something touched my leg. I gasped, and saw a orange blob of fur. "Kendel?" I knelt down.
Kendel nods and hopped onto my back pack. It was all good till she bopped my head. "He's very heart broken you know." She said in a soft voice. I couldn't really say anything. "I thought I should tell you... He doesn't hate you. It's just he's been hurt so much in the love department. I'm sure he's told you before. Yet knowing that, you still choose to play with his feelings."
"Thanks for reminding me that I'm a jackass. I got beat up today, I'm failing Physics, and the worst of it is my Mother is coming by today. I'm getting exactly what I deserve." I shifted my backpack, Kendel jumped onto the fence and kept following me. "Any reason you're following me?"
"Axel wanted me to make sure you were ok."
I smiled a little, and was relieved to hear that he didn't hate me. "Oh, ok. Well tell him that I'm fine." Then she hopped on my shoulder and stayed there till we approached the front door. Kendel jumped down on to the porch. "Wish you could come in, but my Dad can't have animals in the house."
"That's alright Roxas. I have to get back to the Manor." Before I could say good bye she took off down the street.. I took out my keys and went inside.
Out of habit, I went to my room, looked in my closet. Nothing. Looked under my bed. Nothing. My bed was as I had it this morning. Made and untouched. I even looked up at the ceiling.. Nothing there either. *Never thought I'd miss those little heart attacks he'd give me.* I hugged myself, missing him more. Then my pocket vibrates, I snapped back into reality and pulled out my phone. I answered it. "Hello?"
"Hey Roxas. You're home from school right?" I was Sora and once again Chester barking. I groaned.
"Yeah, I just walked in the door. But Dad isn't home till five-thirty." I threw my backpack on the floor and took off my hoodie.
"Oh ok... Hold on." I heard some rustling and something being thrown. "Chester! Shut up! Mom control your rat!"
"Uhm? What time will you be coming over?" I went over to the window and stared out into the street. My window closed, but not locked. Whoops. I felt a bit warm, so I opened the window to let in some cool air. It felt nice.
"About six... So you and Axel still on the outs?" I was hoping he wouldn't ask about him. I've been beating myself up over the argument Axel and I had. Then out of the blue Kendel just walks me home.
"Yes... I don't know if he'll talk to me. And if he's still mad I don't want to upset him more." I sat in my desk and pulled out my sketchbook from the drawer. I began drawing whatever came to my mind.
"I'm sure he'll come around. I bet you five bucks he'll come tonight. Before Mom and I even get there ." Sora sounded so sure of himself. He always is. Though the weird thing is... He always wins the bets he makes. Maybe I'll win one for a change.
"You're on Sora. But let's make it ten." I knew full well I'd win this. Seeing as Sora doesn't know what we fought about. Nor does he know Axel's got a flaming temper issue.
"Deal, but you know I always win my bets Roxy." I could just imagine him having the biggest grin right now. Making me want to slap him through the phone.
I felt my face heat up. "You ass! Don't call me that!" Roxy wasn't a name I liked being called. It's what my Mother started calling me after she found out I was gay. Apparently that gives her an excuse to give me a girly nickname. (And to make it worse she'll call me Roxanne sometimes.)
Next I heard Sora laughing hysterically. "Ok ok. Don't have a cow Roxas. I was teasing. Anyway, I wonder if I could stay a night or two?" *Ha! No way Mom would ever let her precious Sora out of her sight. Especially around his weird/gay brother Roxy.*
"I don't know if Mom would let you..." I then heard a swishing noise. I quickly turned my head towards the open window. I put my pencil down and went by the window. I noticed that the leaves on the trees also looked disturbed. Just then I heard a door close. "The fuck?" I looked over at my closet which I swore I left open. As I reached for the doorknob I heard babbling. I'd forgotten I was on the phone with Sora.
"Uhm you ok Roxas? Hello, Blondie you there?"
"Yeah, uh anyway I have to get started on my homework see you and our 'loving' mother tonight." After that I hung up and I threw the closet door open. "Ha! Caught...yah?" Nothing but my hoodies. "I must be hearing things. Well better get to my homework."
As I closed the closet door, I felt something poke my shoulder. A chill went up my spine. "Up here." I heard a familiar voice say. I turned around to see Axel hanging down from my ceiling, I was confused. *Damn it now I owe Sora ten bucks. How does he always win?!* My heart filled with joy and I was very happy. Then I remembered he was mad at me. I looked down at the floor now. Axel came down from the ceiling and just hugged me. I was now even more confused than ever. "I missed you love." His arms grew tighter around me. I just stood there in complete shock.
"I thought... you were mad at me?" I asked in a low voice.
"I am mad at you. But that doesn't mean I hate you. Thought Kendel told you that?" His fingers started running through my hair. It felt nice, especially with his long nails. Claws, whatever you want to call them.
"But I lied to you, played with your feelings... Yet here you are, holding me. Why?"
Axel laughed, "I care about you that's why... But I don't know if I'll believe you next time you tell me you love me." I ruined this for him. Now my heart hurts.
"I know I don't expect you to." As much as I wanted to stay in his loving embrace. I just couldn't. I lightly pushed him back. He looked at me confused. "I shouldn't have said it, knowing full well I wasn't sure." He rolled his eyes. And pulled me against him.
"Next time love. Just think before you speak." He chuckled.
I was at a total loss here. He was here in my room, holding me, and acting like it's all ok. I don't understand him. He's crazy. Guess that what love does to a person. "Can't promise you anything there, it's a horrible habit I have." A smile crept across my face, hell I even giggled.
"Your giggle is cute." His arms wrapped around my waist. I looked into his eyes, luckily they were still green. Didn't need him going all meanie vampire on me again. Not that he can help it if he does. Even so, he can bite me, and take every drop if he wants now. I owe him that much.
"Don't you dare tell anyone I giggle." I felt my face heat up.
Axel rolled his eyes and chuckled. "Oh? And what will you do to me if I do tell?" I leaned up on my tip toes. I felt his hands moving up and down my sides. Which was driving me crazy.
"I don't know." I bit my lower lip and wrapped my arms around his neck. I started playing with his hair. "Maybe push you into the sun?" I teased.
"Yeah ok. I'd like to see you try love." Axel lightly pushed me into the wall. It was then we shared a long kiss. His hands explored my body and he nipped me a few times, causing me to squirm. When we went back to kissing, my pocket vibrates. Axel pulled back and looked at me strangely.
"That's my cell phone." I reached in my pocket and it was Sora. Guess he wasn't too happy I hung up on him. "Hello again? ….. Hey stop that. I'm on the phone..." But Axel didn't stop feeling me up, while knowing I was in a call.
"Uh... I was wondering why you hung up on me. Is someone there with you?" Again I imagined him with a grin. It annoyed me how he always managed to win bets. It's like he knows what the outcome will be. My brother is so weird.
Axel started nipping me, and it was making me squirm again. "Ahh, uh noooo. Sorry I hung up on you. Anyway, I'll see you guys at six. Still working on my homework."
"Ok? See you then." Sora hung up and Axel snatched my phone. I tried getting it back from him but he kept hold of it.
"I'm not hurting it." He sets it down on my desk and pins me against the wall. "No more interruptions." Before I could object, he kissed me and I fell into a state of bliss. Axel had somewhat forgiven me for my lie. I only hope that he can still trust me. Or else I won't know what I'll do.
One day I'll love him back. It's just one of those things that'll take a while for me. What can I say, love is a complicated thing..
Chapter Seven: END
A/N:
Hi again, this took way longer than I expected. I feel I didn't end it right. It wasn't rushed or anything I really took my time with this one. I was trying to figure out what they should argue about. There's more to come after this. I've just been dealing with a whole lot these past few weeks. Hope this is ok.
Thanks for the favs and reviews!
