Chapter 11

Roxas POV

Disclaimer: I don't own square Enix's characters.

Looking at the view from my window seat wasn't as fulfilling as it used to be. Yes, I still found it intriguing and it was time consuming... Just not as fulfilling.

When I told my father that he said, "An 8 year old isn't supposed to be feeling this way."

What way am I feeling? And why is this so called feeling forbidden?

I miss my ally, my sister's betrothed, my friend... I guess. Oh that's right, he is going to marry Namine.

They really hadn't really talked beyond that breakfast, to my knowledge. Axel was always with me, and Namine with Olette. Needless to say, Sora was with Riku. Occasionally we would all get together, besides the mandatory meal time, go to the gardens for a while after breakfast.

But that was only on occasion.

My eyes rested on the poem book in my lap.

We never ended up finishing up the book, the comments he made on the poems always lead us elsewhere.

Like the one about the lovers, one waiting for the other. Axel didn't understand where the nature came in to play, while I didn't understand why the other was late.

They loved each other, right? One was there... Why was the other late? Did he die... or was there another on the equation?

In most adventurous stories that is the case. There would the young couple that falls in love and the antagonist that prevents them from seeing each other.

Such stories as these are common and interesting... though I should be reading books on the previous Kings of Castle Oblivion (?) or on the Royal family of La Riviere, my ancestors.

I sighed and set my sights back out the window.

The castle had always been surrounded by a thick forest, giving it a slightly Gothic feeling. The weather wasn't really much different wither. It rains in summer, slightly in the fall and more so in the spring. Our winters here are beautiful. A blanket of white across everything. The weather here just makes you want to sleep.

I shook my head.

I wasn't about to start on my insomnia again it does no good to complain.

My gaze was torn away from the trees to my bed.

It's an offensive waste to have that piece of furniture in my room. As if to say everyone uses this on the daily, when I only use it about twice a week.

Most times never more and there is no less.

I closed my eyes for a moment, and only a moment when there was a knock to the door.

"Enter."

The maid ushered in bowing her head.

"The Royal Tutor has arrived for today's lessons." Said tutor already ushered into the room, setting up the lesson books at the desk farthest from the bed.

At least I have something to do now...

"Thank you. You may take your leave."

She bowed, closing the door behind her.

"Have you completed yesterday's assignment?"

I stared out the window again, suddenly just as bored as the hour before.

"Yes."

The man hummed, "Did you have any trouble with it?"

Same question as before deserved the same answer.

"No."

"None at all?"

"None."

There was silence.

"Well. Let's get started."

The curtains were drawn in front of my face, no doubt by Audber, my current Tutor of the 5th level. I just got up and headed over to the desk. Another day of lessons... But I couldn't seem to rid my mind of a certain redhead most likely doing the same.

A/N: This is filler... A random filler... random-ish filler... but a filler none the less. I was just going on a tangent... hopefully this made some type of sense to you. I just wanted to get started on the next chapter.
Note: These fillers are used to switch POV's without much of a hassle and such shit... blah... ummm... what else... Oh, I might write two more of these fillers just to ease the transition of the summers in. If I don't, the next chapter I will be in Axel's POV annnnnd yeah. I think that's about it.
Lol, Just review.
