"I hope afterschool will never come," I groaned as I slumped in my desk in study hall.

"Why? You have a date!" my twin smiled.

"What if he'll… hurt me like Seifer did," I asked as chewed on my eraser.

"He won't hurt you," Ventus smiled as he pulled the pencil out of my mouth and continued to write his essay for English.

"Plus, if he hurts you, I'll kick his butt!" Sora cheered as he jumped out of his seat.

"Sora!" Ven and I laughed. I faked it.

They are sweet, but I'm scared. I can't let him inside me… and inside my head. Haha see what I did there? Never mind, I'm not in a joke-like mood. I have to be strong, or maybe just give up and go home. GOD STOP IT!

I grabbed my sketchpad and flipped it to a clean sheet of paper.

"Hold still," I said to my twin.

"Why?"

"Because I'm drawing you," I replied, "Now stay still!"

My pencil flew across my paper with feather like scratches. My brother just smiled as he looked at his essay.

If anything ever happened to Ventus, I might just kill myself. It's my job on this earth to protect my twin and when the day comes when he will go off on his own, I will find a meaning to my life. Ventus is my happiness… right? Ugh, this happiness thing is so irritating?!

After school came and I began to walk home until a boney hand landed on my thin shoulder.

"Where do you think you're going?" It was Axel… Shit…

"I'm going home," I said bluntly as I tried to escape.

"Aren't you forgetting about our date?" he asked with a slight grin.

"Oh… that…" I sighed and laughed slightly.

The tall red head dragged me into town as he grabbed my hand gently, not even intertwining our finger. He was being so tender with me. I wanted him to hold me and maybe even use me… It'll eventually happen with my luck.

He took me to my favorite ice cream shop and sat us down at the outside tables. Their metal hurt my butt, but I can deal with it. It was also a little cold so I shivered slightly as the breeze blew.

"Are you cold?" Axel asked.

"N-No," I said.

"You're a terrible liar," the red head said as he wrapped his jacket around me. I felt heat accumulation in my cheeks.

"You're so cute!" he smiled as he kissed my temple softly making my face look red as a tomato. He sat down at his seat.

"Will there be anything for you two?" the waitress walked over to us.

"Yes, two sea salt ice creams please," Axel order. She smiled and left.

"H-How did you know that sea salt is my favorite?" I asked.

"Because it's my favorite, I just guessed," he smiled, "Now Roxas is there anything you want to talk about?"

"Nothing comes to mind," I lied. I wanted to spill my guts to him. I wanted to tell him all about my life and how I feel like a dirty slut, but it's not the right moment.

"So you're in a gang?" he asked.

"It kind of disbanded after I broke up with Seifer, but we're still friends,"

"You and Seifer?"

"No! My gang and I, we've been friends since I moved here."

"Oh." Axel said, "Where did you used to live?"

"Destiny Islands, it was beautiful and I loved it there, but we had to move," I replied.

"Why did you move? Because of your parents? What happened to them?" Axel asked me.

"I don't feel comfortable answering that," I said as I wrapped his jacket around me tighter.

"You can tell me anything. You're safe with me," Axel said as he intertwined our fingers over the table. He pulled me closer over the table and leaned in. His lips brushed mine until I yanked away. Sparks still on my lips as his electricity still coursed through me making me shaky.

"Please, I can't," I said, "You're sweet, but I need to take this slow."

"I understand," he smiled as he let go of my hand when the ice cream arrived.

I stared at him. His eyes are so gentle and caring. He doesn't want to hurt me. He really likes me. Maybe I am something, maybe I am! Someone might actually love me… Or he could be putting on an act. Anything is possible in my life.

Axel paid for our ice cream and we left, he brought me to the beach and we sat on a bench watching the sun set.

"Hey Roxas, do you know why the sun set's red?" he asked.

"No," I said.

"You see, light is made up of lots of colors and out of all those colors red is the one that travels the farthest," Axel smiled as he looked into my eyes.

I began to lose control of my body and I gently pressed my lips on his to feel those wonderful sparks. My hands played with his red head as his arms snaked around my waist and pulled me closer. I pulled away to catch my breath and he kissed me again. It was the most intense thing I've ever felt! Axel's hands rubbed my back soothingly. It feels so right, this feels so nice.

"I can't," I said as I broke away and untangled myself, "I'm sorry."

Axel kissed me again, "You don't seem sorry."

My phone began to buzz.

"Hello?" I asked.

'R-Roxas?' it was Ven

"Ven, are you ok?" I asked.

'N-no, please come get me, I'm in your alley. Help me,' he said in a raspy voice.

"I'm on my way," I said urgently as I hung up, "I'm sorry Axel, I have to go."

"I'll go with you," he said.

I ran in the direction of my alley. I stopped dead in my tracks to see blood, droplets of blood leading there. Tears slipped from my eyes as Axel tried to hold my hand but I shook him off and continued in the direction of my alley until I got there.

S-Seifer… on my brother… my naked brother, all bloody and bruised… NO!
