Ok guys I'm SO sorry I haven't updated in months. I've been really busy and stuff, I just got a job and school…well you all are used to the excuses. Anyway, now that school's out I'm going to be writing a lot more and I just wanted to get this chapter up even tho its so short I get disgusted every time I look at it. I hopefully will have the next one up tomorrow if I stay up all night typing lol. But ill do it for you guys cus I love u so much!!
Oh and leon's man that's cool that you care that much about my story. Id understand if you didn't have time to read it. I'll dedicate this story to you! –hugs- ew I just squished a bug on my screen now its guts are strewn all over it. Oh right the story…
Nira sat on her bed, staring blankly at the forest green walls before her. The white sheets lay behind her in a messy heap, the remains of the nightmare she had had the night before.
"I don't know how much more of this I can take." She told the wall sadly. "They won't even tell me why they're keeping me here."
Unfortunately, the wall said nothing back. But she was sure if could talk; it would have nothing to say to that anyway.
"No, I can't think of why either. And now, it's only getting worse. Ever since the accident no one will talk to me. And you might find this hard to believe, but I think I'm losing my mind."
The wall stared disbelieving at her. If walls could stare that is.
"Yeah, you're right. I haven't gone that far off the deep end."
"Ok, do I really want to know why you're talking to that wall?" a voice said next to her.
Startled, Nira jumped a foot in the air and slid off the bed. She landed with an oomph on the floor.
". 31 seconds." Axel said staring down at her. "That's gotta be a new record."
"Holy crab noodles how'd you get in here so fast?" she asked skeptically.
"What's a crab noodle?"
"No idea. Don't change the subject."
"Well maybe if you weren't so busy talking to your wall over there you would have heard me come in."
"Well maybe if you would just knock I would have heard you. And it's not like I was expecting company anytime soon anyway." She glared up at him.
"I'm sorry." He said looking down. "How are you feeling?"
"I've been better." She said coldly crossing her arms irritated and tossing her head to the side.
"Look I wanted to come, but I didn't want Zexy trying anything."
"What do you mean?"
"I mean like him pretending to be you to stab me in the back when I least-well anyway, I tried to come see you as soon as I could."
"And it took you 3 days?" she asked raising an eyebrow.
"Hey I tried ok?" he said defensively putting his hands in the air in an 'I surrender' pose. "It's not like it used to be when Roxas was-" he stopped abruptly and Nira watched the read head's face fall.
"What?" she urged him to continue.
"Never mind." He said, putting an unreadable expression on.
"No, tell me."
"It's just not the same since Roxas left. We could pull all kinds of things around here, and get away with it all. You think Demyx is bad, you should have seen Roxas and me when we kicked this boring place up. We were a great team." Axel leaned back on his hands and looked up at the ceiling. She watched as his memories played by in his mind. She could almost see them herself reflecting in his green eyes.
"What happened to him?"
Axel's gaze hardened, but he didn't stop looking at the ceiling. "He left. And betrayed organization 13 while he was at it."
She frowned sympathetically. "Why did he leave?"
"To find his other."
"What's an other?"
Axel gazed down at her and opened his mouth, just about to say something, when a loud knock was heard on the other side of number 13's door. Axel lunged for the ground, landing as softly as he could, and rolled under the bed. The whole move looked so funny Nira had to hold her breath to stifle a giggle.
"What are you doing?" She asked him quietly.
"They don't know I came to see you." He whispered back. "Quick, open the door and pretend like I'm not here."
She gave a brief nod and opened the door to reveal Zexion standing there with a tray of food. Nira heard Axel mutter a curse word from under the bed. If he didn't want to be found, why was he being so obvious?
Zexion walked past her and placed the tray on the bedside table.
"Come out." He said to the walls. No one answered.
Nira bit her lip. 'If Zexion finds him, another fight is gonna break out.' She thought panicking. The last thing she needed was another fight between those two.
Zexion walked over to one of her newly painted walls and hit it with a fist. "Come out you damn coward!" he shouted.
"Zexion stop!" Nira tried to calm him. Maybe she could get him to leave. Say Axel left a while ago.
"Axel left a few minutes ago. He's not here anymore." Her lie must have sounded terrible because Zexion looked at her with a disbelieving glare and walked over to the bed.
"I can smell you. There's no point in hiding."
Nira bit her lip until she felt cold, steely blood trickle down. He sauntered closer and closer to the bed until he was just a few inches in front of it. If Axel was under there, he would be able to see the shorter nobody's shoes right in front of his face.
"I can smell a coward a hundred miles away." He growled again to the room. "Come out…now-!" Zexion lifted up the quilt that Axel had placed over the crack between the matrices and the floor so that no one could see under it. Nira let out a barley audible gasp-but no one was there. Axel had gotten away.
Zexion growled in frustration, letting the quilt fall back into place. Before leaving he turned to her and simply said, "If you ever see him again, you are to tell me. And if you don't, I will know."
Then he left, slamming the door closed behind him and making her teeth chatter.
The next one will be up soon so don't egg my house just yet!
Axel: underagethinker doesn't own us. THANK GOD
