Chapter 2: Don't Look At Him!

Where is Sora?

Axel thought to himself again, but he didn't want to voice this just in case it hit a sore spot with Riku. The red head chanced a look at his friend, whom wasn't freaking out too much, but still no there was no doubt that he was looking for Sora too.

The friends reached where the Chocobo's were sitting on the blue mat, and flopped down next to them. Axel's cat like green eyes searching everywhere for Roxas. He was starting to get a bit dizzy from whipping his eyes all over the place. He even locked eyes with Demyx who had been looking around himself. Why isn't Sora sitting with Dem?

No, back to the task at hand. Where is Roxas?

'Where is he?' Axel mouthed to the mullet head, who was on the other side of the gym. Dem looked around a bit more, and Axel watched as his eyes enlarged to almost the size of dinner-plates. Demyx then started looking frantically from Axel to the entrance-way gesturing wildly, and his team mates were starting to think he was on the strange side...

Riku watched with a smile playing on his lips. These two trying to form some sort of communication from opposite sides of the room whilst it was noisy as hell was hilarious. It was doubly funny seeing as Axel was a slight nervous wreck and Demyx was buzzing about uncontrollably.

Axel made Dem look at him by signaling to his eyes. Thankfully the mullet head calmed down a bit to mouth 'Roxas!' and point (Very very subtly. And by that I mean he freaking almost started jumping up and down yelling 'ROXAS! ROXAS!') towards the entrance.

Riku and Axel turned at the same time, and time seemed to slow for Axel at that very moment.

"Fuck... It's him..." He whispered.

In that sea of cheerleaders, there was beautiful Roxas, as if a spot light was beaming down on him from above. His ocean-blue eyes were looking around and he seemed a bit impatient and fidgety. He had Leopards all around him, and the poor guy was having to stand up on his tippy toes to see around them.

Axel just wanted to scoop him up in his arms and give him the biggest mother-fucking cuddle ever.

He's still... The same.

Riku watched as Axel's expression softened until it become one of pure and utter love, if Riku wasn't so happy that Axel had 'found' Roxas then he might have gagged a little...

Axel noted everything in his mind that was still the same about Roxas. His hair was still in perfect spikes on his head, no doubt his hair still had that slightly fluffy texture even though they looked like they'd poke an eye out. His eyes were still really blue. He was still on the short side... But that made him easier to snuggle into. He does look older though, because one whole year does change people.

He was wearing just some jeans and a white T-shit, much like what Axel was wearing minus the leather jacket.

He was still the gorgeous, gentle, innocent Roxy.

And he was looking for Axel like a man on a mission.

The Leopards hadn't noticed this however, they were all just trying to intimidate the other competition. There was no sign of Aqua, she must have gone to University, and there was no Van (Axel and Riku did little happy-dances in their heads). However, there was one very pissed looking Terra.

Heh... He must be captain...

Axel smirked, and turned his eyes back to Roxas.

"Ah... Axel?" Riku asked, a wary edge to his voice.

"What...?" Axel asked, still in Roxy dream-land mode.

"Terra just pointed at you and is storming over here like an angry rhino."

"Well, shit." Was all Axel had to say about this situation.

Roxas started moving with the other Leopards, they were all flocking around Terra, flanking him. Roxas kept to the back, but he knew who they were going towards, he knew Terra was going to shout at Axel... Axel was here... Axel was really close.

Roxas looked around his team mates, to see Axel, Axel... In his leather jacket, sitting with his team and looking a bit 'put out' at Terra's charge.

Axel looked really... Good. His eyes still green as ever, his red hair still defying gravity, his leather jacket still his signature piece of clothing. Roxas smiled, he had finally found him! He'd been looking for him all day, and here he was!'

The red head was avoiding all eye contact with him though, Roxas thought this was strange. Has Axel not seen him yet?

Don't look at Roxas. Don't look at Roxas.

Axel knew that if Kairi or Terra saw him looking at Roxas he would have the shit kicked out of him then and there. Don't fucking look at him. The Chocobo could feel Roxas's eyes on him, and oh, how he wanted to look up... Gaze into the beautiful orbs... Pull Roxy close... Give him a kiss.

But hell, he was in the fucking lions den right now. If he did that... He shivered to think what would be done to him

Don't you dare fucking look at him.

Riku however could look at Roxas as much as he wanted, since no one was watching him, all eyes were on Axel. The blonde was looking at Axel but gave Riku a worried/confused/questioning look. All Riku could do was shake his head and widen his eyes as if to signal 'Don't draw attention to yourself'. Roxas just went right back to burning holes in Axel's eyes.

"AXEL!" Why did everyone insist on saying the red heads name with a hiss? What had he done to Kairi and Terra...

"Why hello Terra, I see you're back to normal coloring." Axel said with a smirk, causing the Leopard Captain to go red with rage.

"You are so fucking lucky I didn't kill you before you left last year you jackass!"

"Language Terra... Language..." Axel's grin became wider, Terra's fists clenched but he knew he couldn't lay a finger on the Chocobo without being kicked out. Maybe Axel shouldn't piss him off anymore because he WAS one of the barriers between him and sweet sweet Roxy.

"Fuck you!" The brunette growled. He moved forward to get 'all up in Axel's grill', but Kairi intervened.

"Terra, get the hell outta here." Kairi stood up, and put herself between the standing Terra and the sitting Axel. The height difference was astounding, but Kairi didn't flinch and managed to look freaking intimidating.

"There's. No. Where. Left. On. The. Mat." Terra said through his teeth, then abruptly turned, took a step out, and sat down (not looking too happy I might add). Roxas took this golden opportunity, and when he was about to go sit next to Axel, Kairi and Terra both got to their feet again.

"HELL NO STRIFE! GET LOST!"

"ROXAS! COME BACK OVER HERE!"

For fucks sake. Roxas thought bitterly, about to go and sit back behind his group, Axel still didn't look at him... He couldn't risk it...

RIKU TO THE RESCUE!

"Cool your jets guys. I'll sit next to Axel." He moved to the other side of the red head, so Roxas sat down next to him. Kairi and Terra were glaring daggers at the silverette, and since the intro was about to start neither party's could drag Roxas OR Axel away from their current position.

He's less than a meter away from me...

Axel thought desperately of something he could do so he could at least tell Roxas I missed you so much dammit I still love you! But that was a hard task considering both Kairi and ALL OF THE LEOPARDS were watching him like a hawk.

The Chocobo zoned out as soon as the same over enthusiastic camp counselors burst onto the stage to a massive applause. He just couldn't concentrate. Xaldin was no where to be found, but Axel thought the black-haired man wouldn't be caught dead floundering around on stage for the cheer leaders...

Roxas. Roxas Roxas Roxas.

How do I tell him? How do I tell him?!

A plan popped into his head in an instant.

Wait. Genius idea. THIS COULD WORK!

Axel nonchalantly took his jacket off, and casually put it behind Riku, nobody noticed anything, because this simply looked like an innocent action... Riku was noticing though, but Roxas wasn't, the blond was still trying to figure out how to get Axel to notice him!

The red head then slipped his hand under the jacket, leaning back as if he was just trying to get more comfortable...

Roxas still hadn't noticed, and since (I repeat) no one was paying any attention to Riku, the silverette took Roxas hand that was by his side and slowly pulled it towards the jacket. Roxas was very confused... Why was Riku holding his hand? He didn't look at the silverette though, he wasn't that stupid. Riku was a nice and smart guy so whatever he was doing was probably a good thing. Roxas trusted him.

The blonde kept his eyes forward while his hand went under the cool leather of Axel's jacket. Riku let go of his hand, and smiled to himself, Axel freaking owed him. He would bring this up the next time Axel decided that one of their thumb wrestles was a draw even if Riku had clearly won.

Roxas felt around under the jacket for a couple of seconds before his fingertips came in contact with skin. A bit of an electric shock went through his system, his eyes went wide as the other hand under the jacket rested on his, it's thumb stroking the top of his hand softly. Roxas sighed, and he heard a noise next to him... Axel was sighing too.

He wished he could talk to Axel right now. That's all he wanted, but he knew he wasn't going to be able to see him for the rest of the day unless he pretended to go to the bathroom and found the red head on the way. That was the ideal scenario but what were the odds of that happening? It was good just being able to hold his hand, he accepted that he should just cherish these moments because maybe this was all he was going to get...

That thought hit Roxas really hard.

What if he couldn't see Axel this whole summer? What if the red head was always there, but just out of reach? That sounds freaking awful and bad for his mental health. He had to find a way to slip away from the Leopards, he just had to!

Axel on the other hand wasn't thinking about 'maybe I won't get to see Roxy' but more along the lines of 'I won't fracking give in until I have this kid in my arms'. Now really... Do we think Axel's going to NOT see Roxas this whole Summer? No, that's stupid, we know Axel better, he's really not going to give up.

He wasn't the type to give up.

Hell to the no.

Right now he was trying to piece together the perfect plan in which to get Roxas alone... One idea was he could text Roxas to meet him at the lake at midnight or something. It would be really shitty though if Terra had him on high surveillance. There just has to be a way to sneak him out!

"So is everyone pumped up for this years awesome Camp Oak Blast!" One of the councilors started doing cartwheels on the makeshift stage, and the crowd of cheerleaders erupted into well... Cheers.

"WOOOOOOO!"

Even Axel got a bit into the uproar, but this was only because he had a hold of Roxas's hand. "HELL'S YEAH!" He whooped and Riku just rolled his eyes, a grin plastered on his face.

"Also guys, don't forget about the party later! We'll see you there!" More intense 'hurrahs' and shouts, then the counselors disappeared and everyone started to stand up to go to their cabins. Axel sadly took his hand out from under his jacket, and picked it up, slinging it over his shoulder. He watched Roxas walk away... The Leopard chanced a look over his shoulder and he met eyes with Axel.

The world stopped again for a second, then Roxas turned and kept walking, far too quickly had that moment past in Axel's eyes. Far too quickly.

Ahhh he's so gorgeous... They both thought. Sadly not being to talk to each other even though they desperately craved to do so.

"Okay Kairi, where's our cabin..." Axel sighed, he was on his feet now, Kairi tossing a key at Riku.

"Cabin 6C, you know where it is." She snapped, before walking off with the other Chocobo girls to find their cabin. Riku and Axel were lucky that she was the only truly scary girl in their team. I mean, Yuffie was strange but she wouldn't harm a fly. Kairi however...

"I would like to hear her voice just once when it isn't talking to us like we're a pile of dirt."

"Not possible..." Riku said as he twiddled the key in his fingers and started walking towards the door. He was still looking around for Sora, his search was becoming more frenzied. Sora had to be here somewhere! the two friends saw Demyx and Zex by the entrance so they speed walked to catch up with them, trying their best not to accidentally bash into anyone... But you know these two, they hit like, four people each.

Finally Axel scooped up his bag and put a hand on Demyx's shoulder to breathe a bit. Riku had to catch his breath a bit too, when did they get so unfit?

"Dem... Cabin... 6C?" Axel huffed, but finally straightened up.

"Yeah! You guys too? Zex is with us this year! This is going to be awesome!" They started walking together. It was strange walking back over the green field to reach their little cluster of cabins. It was really warm out today, had that special Summer feel. Roxas and the Leopard's were ahead of them, going to the same place... That's probably a good thing, on the plus side Roxas would be close so sneaking around would be easier. On the negative side, you could have a Terra decking you in the face at One AM...

A question was in the back of Axel's mind, but that same question was freaking eating Riku alive-

"Hey Dem, where's Sora?"

The mullet head just shrugged, "Probably with Zack."

Zack.

Zack?

Zack!?

Who the fuck was Zack!?

"Who's Zack?" Axel asked, eyeing Riku from the side. The silverette looked quite crushed, a bit of a blush on his cheeks. This sucked. Who the fuck was Zack!?

Riku was having a mental freak-out. Were Zack and Sora not like... Just friends? What if Zack was better looking than him? What if Sora liked Zack better? No doubt the two would have spent most of the year together, and Riku had only sent text messages!

"He's a new member to our team." Demyx said vaguely, putting his arm around Zexion to pull him closer. The purple haired teen giggled (Yes, Zexion giggled.) when Dem planted a kiss to the top of his head.

God dammit Demyx you choose THIS MOMENT to not offer any detail to stuff!?

Wait... There were only four beds in their Cabin. Does that mean Sora isn't with them? Is Sora with this 'Zack' person? Are they together? Like together together?! And in the same cabin!?

They reached the Cabins, and when they got to 6C, all of their mouths hung open as all four gaped openly at the building.

What... The... Fuck?
