The Danger in Starting a Fire
[A/N: Woops. So posted this on tumblr but I think I forgot to post on here. It's an extract from a song meme I never finished.]
"Axel, would you just listen?"
Roxas' voice was scratchy from the way he'd been screaming, and Axel gritted his teeth at the sound, making sure to keep his back to Roxas because he could hear the tears in Roxas' voice; tears that were no doubt streaming down his flushed cheeks. Axel wouldn't make the mistake of looking at him again, because his weakness has always been those big ass, blue eyes.
"No." he growled, shoving his way through the door to their shared room, a satisfied twitch at his lips when the door slammed violently into the wall. He grabbed a bag that had been lying across the floor in the corner and ripped open their chest of drawers, starting to dump some of his clothes in the bag, grabbing things at random because he wasn't thinking past the burning fury that clouded his mind. "I am so fucking sick and tired of listening to your bullshit, Roxas! You're a fucking coward and I hate it."
Roxas shoved him, making the redhead stumble and nearly drop his bag; he was briefly surprised because he hadn't heard the blonde storm in, nor expected the smaller man to actually get physical. "I'm not a coward, you fuck!"
Axel sneered, crossing his arms and turning to look down his nose at Roxas who was positively fuming, "Oh really? What else would you call it, Roxas? You're not kidding anyone with this innocent cutesy act, babe, especially not me."
Axel turned back to survey the room briefly, snatching up his mobile and his wallet, among a few other minor items he deemed most important, stuffing them in the bag and turned to walk out the bedroom. He was halted by a hand gripping his arm.
"Where are you going?" Roxas growled, tugging on his arm, too lightly to actually move the redhead. The gesture was almost desperate; begging.
Axel didn't answer; he just tugged his arm free.
"Axel, answer me! Where the fuck are you going?" some of the desperation had leaked into Roxas' voice, but Axel's heart had hardened to the blonds' cries.
"Anywhere but here." The door slammed shut heavily in Roxas' face. Axel stormed through the apartment yanking open the front door; he could faintly hear Roxas call from the room "Ax-wait! I need you!"
"Well tough luck, Blondie," Axel muttered darkly, as he closed the door behind him. "Because I never needed you."
