"Sora, what are you doing here?" questioned Roxas in shock, not knowing what the hell was going on and he was really scared. "Where's Axel?"

"Roxas…" sighed Sora, looking guilty and as if he was having a hard time speaking. "Axel…was the one that called me. He told me that I had to pick you up and that…he had to leave."

"Leave? Leave where?" Roxas continued to question, panic starting to rise up in his body and his hands were trembling.

*'What's going on?!'

"I don't know," murmured Sora in a sad tone as he rested a hand over one of Roxas', giving him a true "I'm sorry" look.

"I have to find him!" exclaimed Roxas as he tried to get up off the floor but sank back down from the dull pain in his rear. He couldn't walk like this but he had to find out what happened to Axel.

"Roxas don't move," said Sora as he horridly wrapped his arms around his friend and made him lay down again.

"Sora, what's going on?" asked Roxas in a weak voice as tears started to run down his cheeks. He had no idea what was going on.

"Well…" began Sora in a gently tone as he took his friend's hand and held it in a comforting way. "I got a call on my phone this morning and it said I was from you. So I answered and it was Axel, using your phone. He said that he needed me to pick you up and that it was important. I asked him why and he said that he was leaving. I question him again and asked why and he said, 'I need to take care of something I can't avoid. I want to protect Roxas…that's why I have to go through with this and can't be with him anymore'. He sounded so sad…

"Before I could question him anymore, he just told me where you where and hung up the phone."

"Why…why…why…" repeated Roxas while he sobbed softly into his hands when Sora basically said that Axel abandoned him.

Axel said he loved him…Roxas even let Axel…

*'Did Axel just use me to get what he wanted?' wandered Roxas as a bitter feeling stung his heart. 'Since I finally gave it to him…he doesn't have use for me anymore...he doesn't want me anymore…'

The thought ached him more than anything else. Was that really what happened? Roxas wished with all his heart that he was wrong but it made so much sense. All those times they spent together…all those times Axel said that it was ok if they waited…was it all…lies? Was it all just an act?

"Please don't cry, we'll find him and get this straightened out," murmured Sora in a soothing voiced as he rested his head on the other's chest, his fingers stroking his hair softly in comfort.

"Sora?" murmured a voice that sounded like Riku's.

"We'll be out soon," replied Sora, not moving from his place. "Just wait in the car, Riku."

"Ok," he said, sounding patient and understanding and Roxas was grateful for it yet felt worse since Riku was here as well.

"Come on, Roxas, let's go home," said Sora as he touched Roxas's cheek and wiped some of his tears with his thumb.

"O-ok," mumbled Roxas as he forced away the pain and got up with Sora's help.

With tears still falling, Roxas dressed and packed his things, trying not to look around the room that reminded him of his pain. Why did his happiness have to end like this? He tired hard not to think about it but it was there like an awful thorn that he couldn't remove. He got into Riku's car; sitting in the back with Sora he tied his best to comfort Roxas. But no amount of affection, care or comfort will make the ache go away. All Roxas could do was ask why quietly to himself as they drove away from the place that was supposed to be a place of happiness. But now it was just an empty cabin where Axel could use him and then dumb him.

Roxas didn't sleep on the ride home. He couldn't sleep because he knew he would only dream about Axel. About his smile, his warm hugs…and his love. Though now it will only be dreams and never real ever again. He won't forgive Axel. Not ever.

When the got back to Axel's apartment, it was quiet. What Roxas was hoping for as he walked down the hall to Axel's room faded away. Axel wasn't here. It didn't even look like he even came back. The bed was the same, drawers and desk as well. Where was he?

"Roxas…I'm sorry," murmured Sora as he stood in the doorway of Axel's room, looking at his blond friend that was standing in the middle, just looking blankly at the bed and not moving.

"Don't be," murmured Roxas, surprised his voice didn't sound like he was about to cry again…which he was.

"Riku said…that you can stay at his place…if you want," said Sora, wanting to help so that Roxas didn't have to stay here, not when it reminded him of Axel who Sora now hated.

"No…I'm fine…all my stuff is here," said Roxas, just making a lame excuse before he started crying again.

"Then I'm staying here with you," stated Sora before he hurried over to his friend and hugged him tightly, letting him cry on his shoulder.

Roxas hated himself for this but he couldn't truly hate Axel. No matter how much he hurt…he could never really hate Axel because Roxas was still in love with him.
