I'm back. I know i really need to write the next chapter of Love is Love but i have no inspiration so have this instead.
Roxas yawned quietly as he slunk through his house door. He was met with a shivering, sobbing wreck of a boy. The blonde immediately fell to his knees next to the spiky haired brunette he called his brother.
"Sora?" Roxas wrapped a arm around the cold boy and pulled him closer to his chest. "Sora... it's all right. I'm here. I'm here. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have left you here all alone. I should have come and picked you up as soon as school let out. I'm sorry. I'm sorry." The brunette clung to Roxas' small frame as soon as he felt his arm around his body. Roxas cradled the small boy against his chest and picked him up and carried him to his room. The room was bright sunny yellow. In the center of the room was a bright blue bed with yellow pillows. Roxas carried Sora across the room and laid him in the center of the bed. He looked so small compared the the blue sheets surrounding him. Roxas sighed and rested his forehead against the others. Sora still clung to his body and Roxas let him, clinging to him slightly as well. Quietly he whispered "I'm sorry" over and over. He lay there with Sora for hours, until the small brunette finally drifted into a fitful sleep and Roxas drifted in and out of a dream like state, thinking about the day he had spent with Axel.
Roxas growled quietly, blindly hitting at the bedside table, trying to find the off button for the incessant buzzing he thought was his alarm clock. It then dawned on him that he was sleeping in Sora's room and blinked his eyes open slowly. He immediately closed them against the bright sun reflecting off the golden walls around him. He groaned quietly and flailed around for his phone, which was still vibrating loudly. As soon as he found it he flipped it open and rolled off the bed.
"Hello?" He slurred quietly, as he slipped out onto the balcony connected to Sora's room. He closed the door behind him and jumped onto the railing to sit.
"Hey Roxy." Roxas rolled his eyes at the pet name but smiled at the familiar voice. "Did I wake you?"
"No. Well yes you did, but I'm fine. I needed to get up anyways." He murmured.
"I'm sorry Rox."
"It's really fine Axel. So what's up? Why did you call?" The blonde questioned as he swung his legs back and forth off the balcony railing.
"Nothing really. Just wanted to hear your voice. Can I come over to your house today?" The delicate voice was music to Roxas' ears. Who ever knew a voice could make him so happy.
"Yeah sure... well actually Sora is kind of... well I don't know if he'd do well with visitors right now."
"What happened?" Axel asked quietly. Roxas shrugged before remembering that he was on the phone and Axel couldn't see him shrug.
"It's... hard to explain. You'd have to know.... ehhh... umm.." Roxas let his sentence fall silent. Axel was important to him, but no one knew their secret, and it wasn't on his secret to share. He couldn't just go around telling every guy he fell for, not that he fell for many guys, but still.
"You know you can tell me anything right Roxy." Roxas sighed in frustration.
"I know Axel, I really do, but I don't know if I... if I can talk about it, and it's not just my story to tell. I... I just can't." Roxas hung the phone up without saying good-bye and wandered inside, and into his room, which was all black and white checkers. He collapsed onto his bed and wiped the tears, that had sprung from his eyes, off his face. He wasn't really sure when he had started crying, but no matter how hard he tried the tears wouldn't stop. He lay on his bed for hours ignoring the phone in his hand that kept vibrating. At one time a soft knock came to his door, but he ignored that as well and just lay there, letting the silent tears flow over his face. He must have fallen asleep at some point because suddenly he was dreaming.
He was walking along a dirt path. He could see the small silver grave stones all around him, and in front of him he could see the familiar tree that he sat under every year. There was something off though. Something wasn't right. There was someone already sitting under his tree. From the distance all he could see was bright red, and all he could think was Axel. He started running and as he neared he saw more red. Soon enough he was standing under the tree, screaming his head off. In front of him was the gorgeous skinny red-head. His pale skin was whiter than usual and his green almond shaped eyes looked glossy. His chest was covered in red. Walking away from the tragic scene was another red-head, a silver blade hung from his hand, glinting in the sun.
"Hey! Roxas! Roxas! Roxy wake up!" Roxas blinked open his eyes and screamed. He immediately jumped away , staring at the boy in front of him in pure terror. The boy stood up and Roxas backed against a wall. He reached out a hand and the blonde shrunk back, trying to appear invisible. He stepped a inch forward and Roxas whimpered shutting his eyes. When he opened them again the other boy was all the way across the room looking hurt and confused. The blonde slid to the floor and buried his head in his knees still whimpering and now sobbing uncontrollably. He didn't hear the footsteps over his sobs, so when a long fingers ran through his hair he screamed again. The hand left his hair and found his chin lifting the blonde's face to look at him. "Roxas? Roxas it's me. Axel..." Roxas' eyes clouded with confusion. He blinked.
"Axel...?" The red-head kneeled in front of him and nodded.
"Yeah Axel... your.... boyfriend." Roxas blinked again as realization dawned on him. He looked away, tears falling down his face once again.
"I'm sorry." He muttered quietly. Axel shook his head and sat down next to the blonde.
"No." Was all he could think of. He pulled the boy over onto his lap with a long arm and nuzzled his face into the blonde locks.
"W-where's Sora?" Roxas felt the red head beneath him shrug and his eyes shot open. "Wasn't he here when you... How the fuck did you get into my house exactly?
"The front door was unlocked, and no Sora wasn't here when I came in." Roxas shot to his feet and flipped open his phone. "Whats wrong Rox?" The blonde looked at the beautiful red-head sitting on the floor and frowned, thinking of his dream. What if something happened to Axel because of his past. He would never be able to forgive himself if that happened. He sighed and sat back on the ground, allowing the red-head to pull him back onto his lap.
"Sora can't be alone."
