Memories Come Alive

Chapter 10- A date to remember

Disclaimer-I do not own Kingdom Hearts. I own the name Alex and Axel Sapphirus owns the name Axus.

Phew. Well I think this story is coming along quite well. I have been getting good reviews so I am going to keep up the story writing. It builds character. (As mom always says) Welcome to chapter 10. Woot woot.

Kairi got home and her cell phone rang. It was Riku. "Riku!! Where are you?"

"You are where?"

Axel walked in and over heard Kairi. She hung up the phone and had a dazed look on her face. "Who was that?" Axel asked.

"Don't you ever knock?" Kairi said with her hands on her hips.

"And, if you must know, it was Riku."

"What did he want?" Axel questioned.

"You are really nosey, aren't you? He said he figured out who his parents were and he was living with them."

"He said his parents were Xemnas and Maleficent." Kairi explained.

"Wow. Shocker there." Axel said, laughing.

"Do you want to go out tonight? Like a…" Kairi hesitated before Axel cut her off, "a date?"

"Yeah, I'll go with you."

Axel and Kairi walked around the town to see if there were any restaurants. They found one and reserved a perfect spot. They walked to Kairi's house and waited out the time. Roxas and Namine showed up. "Hey Kairi. How are you doing?" Roxas asked.

"I'm fine."

"Thank you again, Namine. I don't think I would be here today if it wasn't for you." Kairi said, giving Namine a hug.

"It was really Marluxia who slaughtered the heartless." Namine said.

"I know, but you helped."

"Hey, Roxas?" Axel said.

"Yeah?"

"Do you want to come with us tonight? We're going on a date and I figured you and Namine could come too." Axel said.

"Ok. What do you think Namine?" Roxas asked, turning to Namine.

"Oh my god. I don't have anything to wear." Namine said putting her hands on her head.

"We'll go shopping, Namine." Kairi assured her.

Kairi and Namine left while Roxas and Axel talked. "Do you know where a jewelry shop is, Roxas?" Axel asked.

"No. I haven't been to this town often. Try asking Aerith or Yuffie."

"Come with me." Axel said walking to the door.

Roxas and Axel walked to find Yuffie first. She knew where a jewelry store was and pointed them in an easy direction. Meanwhile Kairi and Namine got back from shopping. Kairi bought an ice blue dress that had blue sequins on the top. She bought high heels to go with it, along with diamond jewelry. Namine bought an ice pink baby doll shirt, a dark pair of bell-bottom jeans, pink high heels, and pink diamond jewelry. "I love what you bought, Namine." Kairi said.

"I love your outfit too."

They got dressed and waited for the guys to pick them up. "Man. Where are they? They should've been here by now." Kairi said, pacing the floor.

"You have to be patient, Kairi." Namine said putting a hand on Kairi's shoulder.

Roxas came through the door and held it open for the girls. Outside was a long black limo. "Wow. How did you guys afford this?" Namine asked.

"As if I'm going to tell you." Roxas said giving her a smirk.

"You'd better tell me."

"Nah. I don't think I will." Roxas said.

They all three stepped into the limo and took their seats. "Where is Axel, Roxas?" Kairi asked.

"Right here." Came Axel's voice from the front.

"Oh. So you're the chauffer?" Kairi asked.

"At you service madam."

Axel drove the limo to the restaurant and parked in his reserved parking spot. Roxas and Axel escorted their dates into the restaurant and to their reserved tables. The waiter gave them all menus, glasses of water, and silverware rolled in napkins. They all ordered and waited patiently for their food. "So. How has it been between you two?" Roxas asked.

"Fine. You?" Axel responded picking up his glass of water.

"Good. You guys thinking about getting married?"

Axel spit his water clear across the room as Roxas spoke those words. "No. We are just boyfriend and girlfriend right now."

"Dude, I am just kidding. Thanks for the shower though. Although I already took one." Roxas said wiping his shirt and face.

Kairi was blushing madly and had her head down to hide it. Their food arrived and they all dug in. When they finished, they sat and talked. At that moment, Roxas felt something on his foot. He looked over at Namine and thought she was playing footsies with him. She just smiled innocently and turned to Kairi to continue their conversation. "Alright. Who is playing footsies with me?" Roxas asked.

"What are you talking about?" Axel asked.

"There is something playing with my foot."

Roxas lifted up the cloth to find the most hideous thing ever. It was a rat, the size of a cat. "AHHH! RAT!!!" Roxas yelled at the top of his lungs.

Roxas jumped on the table and gestured the rest to do the same. They all just looked at him, laughing. "What is so funny?"

"Um, Roxas? That is not a rat. It's the restaurant owners cat." Kairi said laughing at him.

Kairi lifted up the cat to prove herself to Roxas. It was a gray cat with light green eyes. "Meow. Hissssss!!" Axel mimicked.

"That's not funny, Axel." Roxas said getting off the table.

"Who would let their cat in a restaurant anyway?" Roxas said.

"I think we need to go. We are getting awkward stares." Namine said.

"Want to walk home, Kairi?" Axel asked.

"Sure."

Roxas drove the limo while Namine fell asleep in the back. Meanwhile, Axel and Kairi were walking along the empty streets. "You look nice." Axel said.

"Thanks." Kairi responded, blushing.

They walked over to a vacant courtyard. There were unused candles and lanterns everywhere. "Watch this." Axel said.

Axel then moved his hand swiftly and all the candles and lanterns lit up. "Oh. It's beautiful." Kairi said.

Kairi found a bench and sat down, Axel following behind her. Axel leaned in and kissed her. Kairi gasped at the sudden moment. Axel finally pulled away. "Listen, Kairi. I know we haven't gone out too much and we have only had one date, but I think we could possibly live the rest of our lives together." Axel said

"Close your eyes and no peeking." Axel said shoving his hand in his pocket while waving a finger at Kairi.

Mwaaaaaaaaa. Another cliffhanger. I'm going to let you guys figure out what is going to happen here, although it might be obvious. Plz Review.
