It All Started with a sneeze Y: Chapter 5

After eating his lunch, and cursing about Saix; Axel decided to take care of all that laundry that was sitting in Roxas' bathroom. He grabbed it all and brought it to the laundry room, where he put all the dirty clothes in the washing machine.

"Ok so how does this thing work," he picked up a bottle of detergent, "add one cup, sounds simple enough." He fallowed the directions, "umm, now how do I turn it on." He saw a large black button so he pressed it, and nothing happened.

"What the hell?" he pressed it again, "damn machine!" then he kicked it, pulled out his chakram, and was about to attack it, when he heard Roxas having a coughing fit upstairs. So he ran upstairs with a glass of water for his best bud.

"Roxas drink this, "he sat the blond up and put the glass to his lips. "Better now?"

"Yeah"

"Good now go back to sleep."

"Whatever you say mom" he said with a hint of sarcasm.

Axel's eye twitched, "Who're you callin' mom, bitch?"

"Who're you callin' bitch?"

Axel was about to respond with something dirty, but then he remembered the problem he'd been having downstairs, "Oh Roxas, before you fall asleep again, how do you work the washing machine?"

"Whadda mean?"

"Well it won't work when I press the button."

"Did you check to see if it's plugged in?"

Axel ran downstairs, then slapped himself in the forehead. The machine was unplugged the whole time!

"Well… that explains a lot. Why the & would he unplug it in the first place?"

After the laundry Axel: washed the windows, washed the dishes, did the dusting, and even watered Roxas' plants.

"Wait a sec, Roxas has a plant?" attached to the plant was a card….

Roxas,

Hey man, get well soon. Demyx told me about that little movie he's making, good luck with that.

Marluxia

Axel crumpled up the letter and tossed out the plant. He didn't want Roxas to know what was going to happen until he got healthy again.
