Chapter 10 – He Doesn't Look a Thing Like Jesus
Sora and Riku living with us was nice while it lasted, however we all thought it was best for them to move in with dad. Riku is starting his senior year and Sora's starting his junior year in a couple of weeks. Axel and I, we're not parent material. I love him a bunch, but Axel couldn't keep a plant alive and I'm a recovering drug addict. And Axel does a good job with me but technically I know how to take care of myself. Imagine if he had to do all the cooking. CRASH. There goes that damn Disco shelf again. "You okay, Axel?" I asked from behind the counter.
"Yeah, you know what Roxy? I think I'm going to go get something to fix this shelf." Axel said with a determined look. Just what we need, a Mr. Fix It Axel. It'll be interesting to see how that turns out. "Here." He tossed me his keys. "I'm gonna be here a while, so you can take the car home, I'll walk.
"That's okay Axel." I tossed the keys back. "I don't want you walking around at night, and I've needed a walk anyway."
"You sure?" He asked skeptically.
"Yeah, go get your supplies." I urged.
"Okay." Axel quickly ran over to me giving me a chaste kiss, turning around to leave, then changing his mind and giving me a whole make out session.
"You gonna miss me or something?" I joked.
"Always." Axel said before leaving.
I walked around the counter to o check out the pile of Disco CDs. God what a disaster. There's no way I'm cleaning this up. "Hey Dem, Axel went to get something to fix the Disco shelf and I'm gonna take off, okay?"
"Alright Roxy, but I wanna see your cute butt bright and surly tomorrow morning."
"Unless you're willing to get up before twelve, that isn't going to happen." I walked out the door and sprinted down the street before Demyx could see the mess Axel left.
oOo
"Unless you're willing to get up before twelve, that isn't going to happen."
I stormed out of the backroom to tell Roxas just what I thought about that jab at me, only to find that he had already left. Guess I'm manning the store alone since Axel's getting stuff to fix the shelf. Wait, the shelf? The Disco shelf!
I zig zagged through the aisles of music and arived at a mess of Disco CDs. "Roxas!" Oh Axel is so cleaning this mess. As I bent down to check for any broken CDs the bell announced a customer. I stood up and turned around, bumping into the customer, "Oh sor…hey Zexy."
"How are you today, my love?" Zexion whispered in my ear, and kissed a trail down my jaw.
"I'm pissed, I'm really fudgeing pissed, Zexy." I whined and slumped down to the floor. Zexion soon followed, regally sitting right next to me and putting an arm around me. "Look what they did." I pointed to the mess next to me.
"I think it would be beneficial for you to get that shelf fixed. But in the mean time, can I help you with anything?" Ah, always my knight in shining zexy armor, Zexion offers his help.
"I think you can do something for me." I whispered as I rolled over to straddle his legs. He smiled his sweet smile, that he only shows me, and then captured my lips. My hands swiftly ended up in his hair and on his neck, while his hands explored the skin under my shirt. Was that a bell? Oh screw it. My hand found the hem of Zexion's shirt and started pulling it up. My hips grinded into his, "Nnngh."
"Oh…um, excuse me?"
"Fuck!" Zexion cursed.
"Ah, yes can I help you?" I smiled sheepishly at the customer.
oOo
As soon as I was a safe distance away from the music shop I slowed to a walk. Though, maybe I should walk faster, it's starting to get dark. It almost seemed as though the air around me became colder, as less light was visible. I stopped to take a look around. I didn't see anyone, the streets were deserted. My palms were becoming sweaty with nerves, and I didn't know why.
I've walked home alone before. Why would this be any different? I found myself speeding up to get to the street lights. Once I was in the light I slowed down until I was out of it, at which point I would practically run to the next. Then I heard it.
My footsteps were no t the only footsteps on the street. It seemed like they were because every time I stopped the other steps stopped. But I knew better, I wasn't being paranoid. Someone is following me.
I ran, I ran as fast as my legs would allow. The other steps were very obvious now, having realized they'd been caught. My lungs were beginning to burn in need of air, but I ignored it. There'd be time to breath when I got home. My legs were screaming in pain trying to slow me down. My head was telling me faster, faster, faster, but my body was going slower and slower, until I felt breath on the back of the neck.
I tried to run faster but a hand grabbed my hair pulling me back into them. From the impression of muscles I felt against my back I knew this was a man, a tall man. One of his hands was still ripping at my hair, while the other was wrapped around my neck, practically asphyxiating me.
My arms were gripping at the one around my neck trying to remove it and failing miserably. I'm going to die. Now more kitchen battles, no more cuddly nights with Axel, my father and I will never get closer, mine and Axel's relationship will never go farther. I'll just fade away and cease to exist.
The hand around my neck loosened as it threw me against an alley wall. As my head hit the bricks I felt my teeth slice open my lip and blood gush down the side of my head and lip. The skin on my hand was ripped up as I tried to catch myself on the wall and keep from falling. I failed. I was lying in a puddle on the ground, when a foot stomped onto my back, holding me down.
"Roxas, I hope you remember me, you should. You owe me quite a bit of money. If I remember correctly you were supposed to pay up ten months ago. We were to meet in my alley, and you never showed." A cold voice announced, "I will not be taken advantage of. I let you have drugs without paying up front, and this is how you repay me!"
"I was in rehab!" I cried.
"I don't care, I expect payment." The voice demanded.
"I have the money." I'd pay Axel back, "I'll get it to you, I promise."
"Roxas, Roxas, Roxas. I don't want your money." The pressure of the foot on my back left, only to be replaced by a hand grabbing my neck and slamming me back into the wall. He pressed his body against mine to help hold me in place. My tears were mixing with the blood falling down my face. "Your money's no good to me; I want a much bigger payment."
"Please, I have the money. I'll pay interest." I begged.
"To late Roxas." A hand slipped to the front of my pants, unbuttoning them and pulling down both my pants and boxers. No please, I don't want this again. His elbow was digging into my spine while he pulled his own pants down. Off in the distance I thought I heard a screech but I was distracted when I felt the man's obvious excitement against my bare ass. I was sobbing full force now, just waiting for that pain. But penetration never came and I found myself thrown to the ground again.
oOo
That damn fucking Disco shelf! I swear it's like Eeyore's house. All the fucker needs to make it fall in a heap on the floor is a damn butterfly. Now I get to go back to work, after hours, to try to fix it. Roxas will probably be sleeping by the time I get home.
Wait! What is that? I was stopped at a red light, abiding the law even though no one was around. And quite a ways away I thought I saw Roxas. Squinting my eyes I tried to get a better look. It is Roxas. He's…is he being dragged into an alley by…Xemnas? Shit!
Screw traffic laws. I shifted gears and floored the Reventon until I came to a screeching halt outside the alley I'd seen Roxas dragged into. Now normally I'm an easy going person, but something snapped in me at the site of Xemnas holding Roxas against the wall with his dick inches from touching my sweet Roxy.
I ran full speed towards them; fire burning in my eyes as I tackled Xemnas, sending Roxas to the ground. I'll patch him up later; right now I have some whoop ass to dish out. I was too focused on causing Xemnas as much pain as possible to see the petrified look on Roxas face as I punched Xemnas repeatedly. Eventually he threw me off of him, but I just attacked again, slamming his head into the wall. There was blood everywhere, and it wasn't mine.
"Axel, Axel, don't kill him. I need you." Roxas' voice pulled me out of my murderous rage. With one last kick to the groin, I left Xemnas curled on the floor.
"This won't go unpunished, Axel." He called to me as I scooped Roxas up and carried him to the Reventon. As I got into the driver's seat I said, "Don't worry Roxy, I'll clean you off and fix you up. Just call me Nurse Axel. Disco can wait."
AN: I'm still just writing chapter 14 so it's be another 3 to 4 days before I update again.
