Chapter Ten

Just a Day

Aku

I am so happy, happy, happy! I'm going to get a Roxas! I'm not going to be lonely! I am amazingly amazing.

I've decided to name Roxas number two Roku. AkuRoku, our names together. Oh, how happy am I!

Now, to get Axel un-expelled and Saix calmed down. Wooo! Saix, he'll be tricky. Oh, well, this whole situation is my fault but if I hadn't done it I probably wouldn't have gotten Roku! Well… I will.

Axel, Roxas, and I are headed to the office, where we're sure to find Saix still fuming even after everyone has gone home. We pass by the parking lot along the way.

"Hey," Axel says, "Shouldn't we, maybe, put out the car? Before some little kid runs up and gets hurt?" Right. The car… id forgotten about that. Wonder why no one else has put it out. The thing about our fire is it can keep burning until put out, which I think it pretty awesome.

Axel and I stride over and put our hands near the still blazing flames. We close our eyes and concentrate on drawing in the flames. Axel sighs as the fire gives him more power, but I gasp with sudden pain. I stumble backward and fall hard on my butt. I stare dumbly at my hands. The fire from the car is gone, but the fire I absorbed swirls all around me.

"Aku?" Roxas's worried voice cuts through the pounding in my head, "Aku, what's wrong?"

"Nothing," I mumble as the fire finally seeps into me.

"It's not a natural Affinity; it's too much for him," Axel explains.

"I can handle it, I just… gotta practice…" Axel and Roxas each take one of my hands and pull me up to my feet.

"C'mon, let's go," Axel mutters.

We find Saix staring stony-faced out the office window, his papers in his hands. He stiffens as we enter, refusing to face us.

"I'm sorry," I call.

"Sorry doesn't-" Saix stops mid sentence as he looks at Axel first, and them me, and back again. "-cut it," he finishes, "Is it me or are there two Axel's in front of me?"

"Nobody told him about me?" I ask both Roxas and Axel. They shake their heads sheepishly. "Oh, well no wonder Axel got blamed. If you guys had told Saix about me maybe I would be the one getting yelled at." I saunter over to Saix, putting my arm around his shoulders.

"Saix, my friend," I begin, "I humbly apologize for setting your car on fire and causing it to blow up. I am so terribly sorry I caused your anger and I am sorry for the loss of your dearly beloved car". I look at Saix, who is glaring at me from the corners of his eyes, narrowed to slits.

"Apology accepted," Saix studies me for a moment, "But you owe me". He shoves me away, collects his things wordlessly and shoulders his way past Axel and Roxas, who are by the doorway.

"Sour-ass," I mutter under my breath. Roxas smirks and Axel laughs.

"Now to talk to Xemnas to get me un-expelled, doubt Saix would bother."

~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~

Axel

Okay, so getting me un-expelled was more hectic than we thought, due to the principal freaking out about Aku being my exact copy. But I get to go to school again.

After that, we're forced to clean up the scraps of slightly melted metal and leather seats that used to be Saix's car. We'll worry about what we owe Saix later. Aku has promised us to behave for a whole day in order to gain Roku.

Knowing myself, being good for a whole day is harder than it sounds. He'll be fretful.

While Aku paces back and forth in my room, Roxas and I lay sprawled across the floor, planning on how to draw Roku. We want him to have some distinctive feature.

We argue about what the feature should be. I suggest larger ears, larger eyes, maybe a crooked nose. I even suggested a bigger butt. (I got kicked).

Finally, we settle on Roku having a symbol drawn on his cheek—the kanji symbol of eternal. Aku should have the symbol of love. You know, eternal love. My cheeks flush with the thought. Well, that's what Aku would want right? Roxas kisses my hand shyly. Yes, it counts as a kiss! Right? Maybe it was an accident. Just a light brush… but. But maybe he wanted to… yep. He so did. I'll go with that, keep me positive. He wants my sexy body.

Roxas draws Roku with all the feelings and ideas he can so when he comes to life he's not completely clueless to who Aku actually is. Roxas sits hunched over the sketchpad, drawing furiously, the tip of his tongue peeking out from the corner of his mouth in utter concentration.

Isn't he adorable?

"I cannot take it anymore, I'm losing my mind over here!" Aku bursts into the room, sending Roxas scrambling to cover the drawing.

"What are you talking about?" I ask casually, laughing inwardly at him.

"The not making annoying jokes, not getting into some trouble, however insignificant. How can anyone live like this?! Geez, I'm suffering too much for Roku. He should know what I went through to get him."

"Oh, he does," Roxas smirks.

And that's how the rest of the day passes by. Aku complaining but being good, Roxas drawing, and me getting occasionally, playfully slapped for suggesting some absurd distinctive feature.

I can't wait to see Aku's face when he see's Roxas for the first time.

~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~

Aku

I am dying to see Roku. Dying to forget about these feelings of loneliness and jealousy. I've been good all day. From 7 am to right now, 9 pm. Do you know how traumatizing that is? Not one joke, not one comment, not even a little fire play. And you know that's hard to manage when there's so much sexual tension in the other room.

But, my good behavior is rewarded.

"Aku!" Roxas calls.

"We got a surprise for you!" Axel's voice booms.

Roku. It must be him.

~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~

Guess what that means, Pawns. I'll be writing when they meet... and something else.
