Chapter 9
Mmm…. Fluffy clouds and raining chocolate… wow… that is the life. Just me and the many sweets of the world. Ahh… I walked on and I came face to face with a giant fountain of chocolate. My eyes sparkled. Just as I was about to taste the chocolate-
"DAMN IT ROXAS WAKE UP!" I was suddenly jerked out of my dream. Like, literally. The evil twin of mine was shaking me really hard.
"Mnn.. Go away Sora… just another few more minutes." I mumbled as I slapped his hand away and pulled the covers over my head.
"You didn't receive the text from Axel, did you?" he asked skeptically.
"What text? I don't even have his number." I groaned groggily. Now there is no chance of me going back to sleep anymore. Sigh.
"Well, if you had given your number to him earlier, you would've known that Axel was planning to take all of us to his summer house over at Hawaii. But too bad, since you don't know, you will just have to miss out on all the sun, sea and trees. Ahhh… that is the life…"
I immediately shot out of bed. Why didn't Axel tell me before? Damn it! But wait! Sora could be joking right? Psh. Duh he is joking. No way would Sora want to tell me something like this. He would just want me to embarrass myself. Nuh uh. He is not serious. So I just walked calmly toward the bathroom for my daily routine.

Just as I stepped out of the shower, the doorbell rang. I heard Sora shout a loud 'Coming' and his footsteps as he ran for the door. I ignored their conversation and went back to toweling myself dry and giving my hair that nice spikiness that it always has.
I smiled at my reflection in the mirror, admiring my handiwork, then I walked out of the bathroom without anything on. What? My family is not that bothered by nudity or anything like that. They are very open bout stuff like that, 'cause they feel it's just part of the natural body.
I met Sora along the way back to my room, "I would cover up if I were you." He said with a smirk. To that, I just stared at his retreating back questioningly.
Then when I entered my room, I finally understand what he meant.
As I opened the door, "Hey short-stu- woah! "
And then as I slammed the door, "FUCKING HELL!"
What the hell? Axel was sitting on my bed, and I walked in NAKED! Damn you Sora! Oh wait, it's more like damn myself. Cause, you know, Sora did warn me. I should have listened to him. Sigh, this shows how stupid I am really.
I went back to the bathroom and grabbed two towels and wrapped one around my waist and another around my chest. What? You can't be too careless when it comes to Axel. I took a good look at my face as I was leaving. It was as red as a tomato. Shit. Now what? Go with Roxas' first law of life, 'just get it over and done with', and that was just what I did.
I marched right in, dragged an unwilling Axel out of the room by his arm, and locked the door behind him. Ignoring the consistent knocks on the door, I started changing into something presentable.
"Hey Rox, are you going to Hawaii with us or not?" Axel shouted through the door.
My head snapped up. "That was real? I thought Sora was just pulling my leg!"
"Yeah, your brother is so pulling your leg, that's why I'm here you know.*insert eyeroll here* So are you coming? I already convinced your parents to let both of you come."
"Uh… Okay! Just help me get my luggage bag! Ask my parents where!" then I went back to getting dressed. I dug out a pair of jeans that, quoting Sora, 'hugged me at all the right places', and a green t-shirt that says 'kiss me' in front, and 'I know I'm hot' at the back with two little devil wings. What? Axel forced me to buy it alright? And besides, it's a comfortable shirt. Then I got a few sets of clothes out and my trunks.
"Hey Axel! How long will we be gone?" I shouted down the hallway.
"Uh, one week I guess." Axel said as he waddled into my room carrying my suitcase beside him.
I rolled my eyes, "You know you can drag that?"
He looked at me with an expression I couldn't really read, well that might have to do with the fact that maybe three seconds I looked into his eyes, I was tackled onto the bed by Axel and his lips were attacking mine. Our tongues fought, and I knew I would lose. So I surrendered. Dear tongue, you have "fought" bravely.
When we came up for air, my face was red and we were both gasping for air. Axel gave a small smile before burying his face into the crook of my neck and letting out a content sigh. "You know that I like you right Roxy?"
I let out a soft chuckle, "I think you made that point quite clear." I ran my fingers through his spikes. I still can't get over the fact that they are so soft.
"By the way, I love this shirt. You should wear it more often. But only wear it for me to see."
"We'll see. Now can you get off me so I can pack?"
He reluctantly got up and sat on my bed, eyes following my every move like I am some prey. Actually, I can tell he wasn't really looking at me, but more like looking at my butt. Well Sora did say that the jeans hugged me perfectly, now I guess I know where he was referring to. I let out a quiet chuckle. Axel is so predictable sometimes.
Once I got everything I needed stuffed into the suitcase, Axel left to get his car over. Sora came rushing into the room. "Why haven't you two fucked yet?" he said as he bounced up and down my bed excitedly.
"Wh-what? Why are you asking such a question?" I spluttered out.
"It's written all over your face that you are still a virgin. But question is, why are you still one?"
"Why are you asking such a question? It's not like you did anything with Riku yet."
"Well… actually…"
"Oh my god… you did not."
"What? I couldn't help it! He is just so damn good at it alright? The way he kisses my neck, right at that spot… Ohh~~ heavenly…and then he would trail his lips down till they rea-"
"AHH! STOP! MY POOR INNOCENT VIRGIN EARS!"
He rolled his eyes, "Okay, fine. But whatever it is, you better make a move during this trip. I mean, how long have you guys been going out?"
"Umm… a while?"
"See! That's why you have to make a move! He is still probably scared that you are not ready yet, that's why he is waiting. So you make the first move, and then voila! Everyone is happy." After saying that, he skipped out of my bedroom just as dramatically as he entered. Then he suddenly halted in the doorway and turned around to face me, "And by the way, what you are wearing is a big help in making the first move."
After Sora left, all I could do was stare at the opposite wall. I was in shock. But I didn't know what I was shocked of, Sora already doing it. Or maybe Axel waiting for me to give the signal for him to go ahead. But truth be told, I feel that that is kind of sweet of him. Of Axel, not of Sora. It's quite romantic actually.

Turns out it was going to be quite a lot of people going on this trip. There were 8 people going including me. Riku brought Sora along, Marly and Larx were there, me and Axel, and Demyx and a slate haired guy. Now that we were all standing together, I realised something. Larx and Marly were the only straight ones of the group.
When we were all in Axel's car, turns out to be a limo, I couldn't stop staring at the slate haired guy. Not because I was interested in him or anything, but you got to admit, he is kinda cute, but more because of how he was staring at me. To others, it might look like we were having a staring war, but in actual fact, we were communicating silently. I could tell from one look that he was somehow like me. Quiet, not fitting in properly, etc. most likely he was one of the 'unwanted', but why would he be with Demyx? But I guess that's why they say that opposites attract. Demyx and him have completely different personalities.
"Hey Zexion, don't eye rape my Roxy will ya?"Axel exclaimed while his arms wrapped around my waist protectively.
"Nah, Zexy won't do that, won't you Zexy?" Demyx chirped as he hugged Zexion's arm lovingly. I don't know bout you, but both of them look pretty good together.
"He better not, or else Axel will kill him." Sora chuckled softly from Riku's lap.
I looked out of the window and chose to ignore the conversation going on. All the trees and cars passed by in a blur, so I was sure that we were driving pretty fast. I started thinking and planning in my head.
I have a feeling that Axel would have a private jet and he would was me to sit with him, and I also predict that Hawaii was going to be beautiful. Other than that, i also realise that I was right. Axel did have a private jet, but not those small ones, it's not as big as a normal plane, but still bigger than small. Seriously, how rich is this guy anyway? And why does he still want to work? I bet it was his mum that said something like, 'you have to learn that money is not served up on a silver platter, but you have to earn it' or something like that.
Just as I sat down on my seat, I suddenly remembered something. I was so caught up with the whole 'going to Hawaii' thing, that I was afraid of planes taking off and landing. Don't ask why, I think it has something to do with my fear of heights.
"Uhh… Axel? Do you mind if I go home now?"
"What? Why? We haven't even got to Hawaii yet."
"Well… it's just that… you know… ah…"
Then Sora suddenly interrupted, "He is scared of planes taking off and landing! He needs someone to hold him down and hold on to his hands."
I shot him an icy glare. It would be alright if he would just walk up to Axel and tell him softly, but now everyone knows. Oh thanks Sora, what a great brother you are.
"Look kid, whatever problem you got with planes, just get over it. You will be going to Hawaii with us, whether you like it or not." Larxene snarled from behind me.
"All passengers, please buckle your seat belts and get ready for take-off. Cabin crew, get ready for take-off."
As the pilot's message came on, I grabbed Axel and dragged him into the seat next to mine and gripped his arm for dear life. When I heard the engines starting up, I buried my face into his arm and squeezed them shut. I felt Axel gently wrap his other arm around me and he whispered soothingly into my ear while rubbing comforting circles on my back. And without me noticing, we were on our way to Hawaii.
Ok I know I am getting slower in updating, and now I am starting to feel guilty. I actually came up with this plot before I went overseas, and I wanted to post this before I went. But….. stuff happened and I wasn't able to upload… and now school is going to start soon again…. Karma hates me =3= ok lol I was just joking. But I actually scrapped the whole of the AN in the front because that was written before I went overseas. It was saying something like I will be MIA from the 15 till the 25 of December. But as you can see… I didn't get to post this up in time… sorry I actually wanted to end this chapter later, but when I looked at the word count, I was like, "OMG I ALR WROTE THAT MUCH?" so I stopped there…. Sorry bout that… lol. I will really try to make it up to you guys in some way. Promise, pinky swear, cross my heart etc.
But in the meantime~~ I love your reviews :D so do review more and have a merry Christmas *although I only have half an hour of it left here….*
P.S. add me on facebook yo :D tayviickii Vicky is the name
