Chapter 38.
As soon as the gig finished Demyx came running over to me and asked us both how we thought it went. There was certainly a bigger crowd here than what there was last night which I found impossible seeings as how packed it had been the other night. We congratulated Demy on his good work and Vexen walked over, whispering something in Demyx's ear before walking off. I frowned.
"Don't worry Axel. He's grabbing a hotel room tonight, I told him during the break it would probably be for the best after all the damn hassle he's caused. Don't worry about him Roxas, he's just a cunt." Roxas' eyes widened at the sound of Demy using such severe curses and I smiled and rubbed his back.
"Nah he's OK, right Roxy?" Roxas turned to me smiling and nodded his head and we all headed back to the bus. Demyx was exhausted from the performance as were the rest of the gang and Roxas and I were always grateful for an early night. We watched a couple of movies on the tiny TV and then fell asleep.
The next day was the last day we'd be there and after another amazing gig, I told the guys I'd start the drive home so we could all have a nice comfortable bed to sleep in. The gig had finished at eleven and as I was a bit of a crazy fast driver, I managed to get us back to Twilight Town by half two.
I pulled up outside Demy's house and turned off the ignition before heading over to the blonde.
"Hey Dem. We're at your place." I poked him and he stirred and woke up before nodding his head and eventually getting out of his bed and silently waking Wakka, Vexen and Tiffa. They had told me that the band would stay together and then just get taxis home the next day so they all piled out of the bus and into Demy's house.
I looked over at Roxas who was sleeping soundly on the futon we had christened the other night and smiled before walking over to him and stroking his face softly, causing him to stir and his eyes to open.
"Nnnuh." Was all he said as he pulled the duvet over his head; I chuckled and kissed his forehead.
"Roxy, we gotta head back to mine now." Roxas shook his head and I rolled my eyes and called a taxi. When the yellow car pulled up I picked Roxas up and carried him bridal style to the taxi.
"Wait here while I get the rest of the things." I told the cabbie and he nodded his head, his outrageous brown hair bouncing around. I smiled and headed back to the bus and grabbed the rest of our things and locked up the bus, slipping the keys to the bus in through Demy's letterbox.
I climbed into the taxi and Roxas nuzzled up close to me, smiling at the heat my body gave off and we headed to my flat. I struggled my ass off trying to carry Roxas and all our things up the stairs and eventually I got the door open and dropped Roxas on the bed. He groaned loudly and immediately curled up in a ball and tried to grab the duvet but I pulled it down and laughed.
"Roxas, I need to get you out of your clothes." Roxas smiled and then sat up and grabbed me, pulling me down on top of him.
"Well, when you put it like that!" he chirped and I glared at him.
"You were faking it? You made me struggle my ass off up those stairs with you, thinking you were asleep when really you were just faking it!" I exclaimed and Roxas smiled and kissed me, fingers gently running through my hair.
"You're hot when you're angry." Well how could I resist that? I rolled my eyes and smiled as I leaned down and kissed Roxas full on the lips. He smiled and pushed me off, undressing himself before climbing into bed and tapping the space beside him.
I climbed into bed and pulled Roxas up close to me, feeling him shiver slightly as my body warmed his cool flesh.
When we woke up the next day, Roxas had a text message from Demyx, saying that Vexen wanted to see him to apologise properly and everything. I was a bit reluctant but Roxas told me that he didn't want any bad vibes anymore with the guy so I begrudgingly followed him to Demyx's.
"Hey Rox, Vexen is in the hallway." He told the blonde and Roxas nodded and sighed, clearly a little unnerved by everything and walked into the hallway while Demyx took me into the kitchen and got us both a drink. They had been on their own for about ten minutes when I heard a loud bang and a shout which sounded like Roxas. Demy and I both looked at each other before rushing out into the hallway.
What I saw made my blood boil and the fire inside me was let lose again, tiny flames erupting round my wrists and spreading up my forearms. Vexen had Roxas pinned against the wall, nose to nose with the small blonde and glaring at him.
I grabbed Vexen by the collar and pulled him away from Roxas who dropped to the floor and ran to Dem, who wrapped his arms around the quivering blonde.
"What the fuck do you think you're doing?" I shouted.
"He said he wanted to see what Malakie liked about me so much." Roxas stated quietly and I looked at Roxas as did Vexen. Vexen's lips curled and he snarled at Roxas.
"You fucking whore!" he growled and I immediately punched him in the stomach and again in the ribs, almost certain I heard something inside snap. I then dragged Vexen to the door and opened the door.
"Get the fuck out of my sight before I kill you." I shouted, pushing him out of Demyx's house and slamming the door. I felt the little tingles on my arm fade, showing me that my flames were now fading and I leaned against the door, tilting my head back and trying to calm myself down.
"Axel man... I am so sorry I swear I had no idea." I nodded my head.
"I know Dem, it's OK." I looked at Roxas and he released Demy and I held out my arms to him. He came towards me and wrapped his arms around my neck pulling me down and brushing his lips against my cheek as he hugged me tightly. I glanced over to Demy who was watching with an unusual look in his eyes and he blinked and headed into the living room.
"I'm sorry Roxas." I whispered and Roxas shook his head.
"It's OK. I'm alright so let's forget it yeah?" I sighed and agreed. The boy had a point and I knew it but I still hated Vexen. With a passion. Roxas released me and kissed me softly and quickly before heading into the living room and through into the kitchen. Demy was gently strumming on his guitar and I sat down beside him and sighed.
"So, you and Roxas OK?" he asked and I nodded, not really thinking too much on his question. Demy nodded and arched an eyebrow and I frowned.
"What's up Dem?" I asked and he shook his head.
"I just think that you and Roxas are... a little... close." I frowned and turned to face him a little more and Demy smiled at me.
"I think he likes you Ax." He stated and I nearly died. Why the hell would he say that? What's given him that idea?
"Why?" I asked, trying to sound a little sceptical. He shook his head.
"Just how relaxed he is around you, how much time you spend together... and then just when he kissed your cheek." Shit, he saw that? Not good.
"Maybe we're just close?" I told him and Demy nodded his head.
"Yeah... maybe..." and that was it, Roxas came back into the living room and sat beside me sipping his pop and nothing more was said about the subject, even though Demyx did keep looking over and giving small smiles and looks every so often.
