Mwahaha! I am free from the evil confines of school. I would've updated yesterday but there was a dance and my friend dragged me with her... :P
Kitty: It's now CHAPTER FOUR!!!!
Chapter four
Poke.
Poke.
Poke.
"For god sakes, what?" Axel yelled.
"Hi." Sora said with a cheery grin.
"Hello, Sora. Um, who's that?" Axel asked.
"I'm Demyx!"
"Ah...what is the reason for your visit this time?" Axel asked. "You were here an hour ago."
"Ya but we came to see if you got better." Sora said.
Axel sighed." Sora, people don't just get better in an hour."
"Ya...but you're the almighty Axel whose gonna help me rule the world some day. So you gotta heal faster and get your memories back."
"Maybe I don't want them back." Axel said to himself.
"Why not? Don't you want to be with Roxas again and be happy?" Sora asked.
"I have a feeling that's not what he wants...on a happier note, I get out of here next week so I can see everyone again." The drastic change in attitude confused poor, naive Sora but he brushed it off.

"You said you'd go to school today."
Riku jumped. "How'd you get in here?!"
"The door, obviously." Olette said. "Why weren't you at school?"
"Why else? I'm a coward and we both know it." Riku shrugged.
"I think you just want to believe that. The Riku I know could make any girl, scratch that, any person fall to their knees and beg for you to go out with them...now you just hide from the world...what changed?" Olette asked.
"My best friend fell in love with me so I ended up losing him. My other best friend just died! How would you feel?!" Riku asked.
"Kairi was my friend too. And I lost my best friend cuz turns out, he's gay and he didn't like me like that. We're working it out but...it'll never be the same. You're using them as excuses, because, honestly, what do they have to do with Roxas?"
Riku remained silent.
"You know what? I'm calling Roxas." Olette said, pulling out her phone.
"N-no, don't!" Riku pleaded.
Olette had already dialed Roxas' number and invited him over.
"I hate you." Riku said.
"Aw, I love you too, but sorry I'm taken." Olette said.
"What? By who?"
"Um...Pence, duh." Olette said as if the entire world should know.
"..."
There was a knock at the door.
Olette answered it. Riku was panicking and then Olette came back with Roxas trailing behind her.
"Hey, Riku." Roxas said, cheerful because he found out that Leon wasn't missing after all.
"H-hi..."
"I'll leave you two to talk." Olette smirked, going to Riku's kitchen to raid the fridge.
"So...how is it that the almighty sex god doesn't have the guts to talk to someone he likes?" Roxas asked.
"How is it the acclaimed sex toy could say that when he has a boyfriend?" Riku countered.
Roxas sighed. "I only got that nickname cause I went out with Axel, and I never said I was uke."
Riku looked utterly shocked, but shook it off quickly. "So we both have names we don't live up to...wait, so Axel's uke then??"
Roxas smirked
Riku heard Olette giggling manically in his kitchen.
"hm...I only have one question. Why would you want me to try something when you have Axel?" Riku asked.
Roxas averted his gaze. "I...Axel broke up with me two weeks before the crash. It'd happened before but...we weren't likely to get back together...I... he said that even Reno didn't want us together...I never could understand why..."
"That would be the doings of my brother's. Yazoo's still not taking that too well. Kadaj hates Axel. Prolly his fault." Riku said.
Roxas shrugged. "Doesn't matter now..."
"Why do I get the feeling you wouldn't get back together with Axel even if he wanted to?" Riku asked, suspicious.
"Because I wouldn't."
"Now you're just confusing me. He broke up with you but you don't even like him anymore? Why?"
Roxas sat on the floor, hugging his knees and burying his face against them. "He got his memory back, 'iku. You didn't give Sora the memory potion...Kairi did, and that's what got them in the crash. Kairi wanted another one to erase your memory too. It wasn't Sora she liked...it was you."
"That's confusing..."
The voice startled both of them. Standing before them was Axel.
"You're saying my sister and brother died because of Kairi's idiocracy?"
Roxas didn't say anything, but turned away.
"I guess...it's al too confusing if you ask me." Riku said.
Axel shrugged. "So, Roxie, wanna explain what the hell is going on?"
Roxas mumbled something.
"What did he say?"
"I said 'I don't want to talk to you'." Roxas said.
"Why? Do you have some evil plot to get Riku too? Can I help?" Funny thing was, Axel was totally serious.
"Kinda still here." Riku said.
"So? You can help." Axel said.
Olette laughed and said. "Anyone want a sandwich.
"I didn't know I had bread..." Riku said, thoughtfully.
"You didn't. Now, I shall explain the situation in idiot so that you might understand. 'Kairi liked Riku, but Riku liked Roxas. Kairi thought Riku liked Sora cuz they were dating. So she got a memory potion to erase their memories. That ended in a car accident...somehow. Roxas used Axel's memory loss as an excuse to break up. Axel only went out with Roxas cuz he got to be uke for once-"
Axel blushed.
"-and Riku is just a coward and won't ask Roxas out.' Now, do you want sandwiches or not?" Olette asked.
The three starred in disbelief.
"What?" she asked.
"Roxas!!!! Roxas!!!!!" Sora yelled from outside.
The four turned towards the voice.
Sora ran in. "Roxas!!! Leon's back!!!!!!"
"Sweet, see ya guys!" Roxas and Sora ran off.
"That was...weird." Olette said.
The two boys nodded.
"So, are you gonna ask Roxie out or not? If not, I wanna try again." Axel said.
"I...I dunno. An d no, Olette, it's not because I'm a coward I just...don't know if he's the most trustworthy person anymore..." Riku said.
"When was he ever?" Olette asked, incredulously.
"Ya really...Bleck!!! What's in these things? Fish guts?!" Axel spat out the sandwich.
"Yup!" Olette grinned.
Axel turned just laughed.
"Yay! Finally a real laugh from you." Olette glomped her silver-haired friend.
"That's disgusting, I can't believe you!" Axel said, disgusted even though it was a joke.
Olette smiled..."Crap! I gotta go home, bye guys!!" and she left.
"Now what?" Riku asked.
"We get take-out that's what." Axel said, calling a Chinese restaurant.
Riku raised an eyebrow.
"Don't worry, you get some too." Axel said.
Riku smiled.
"Got any good movies? I don't wanna go home just yet." Axel said, searching Riku's movie collection. "Aha!" He held up Fool's Gold. (A/N: I am very aware it's not on video yet but I get to see it next week, WOOTS!!!)
"What? Are we a couple now or something?" Riku asked.
"No, I just wanna see it and I like Chinese. You're my friend so you won't keep me from my dreams." Axel said.
Riku smacked his forehead. The redhead's logic never did make any sense.

"You're BACK!!!! You're back, you're back, you're back you're back, you're BACK!!!!!!" Sora sang, jumping around like the ADHD kid on sugar, that he is.
"Okay, Sora. You're singing is just as bad as Demyx's, please shut up." Zexion said.
"Sorry..." Sora said.
"Well, we're glad you're back." Roxas said.
"It's like the world ends when I'm gone, huh?" Leon asked.
"Yup!" Yuffie shouted.
"It really does, Cloud even made scrapbooks, again. SCRAPBOOKS!" Roxas looked mortified.
"Cloud, what did I tell you about scrapbooks?" Leon asked.
"Not to make them." Cloud squeaked.
"And why don't we make scrapbooks?"
"Because they're blackmail that Yuffie can steal so she, Sora and Axel can rule the world?" Cloud asked.
Leon's face fell. "(sigh) Anyone know the answer?"
"I thought that was the answer." Sora thought aloud.
"Ya me, too." Roxas said.
"Me three." Yuffie said.
"Tifa?"
"What is the right answer? What was the question even?" Tifa was having a blonde moment.
Everyone sweat dropped.
"What's I miss?" Tifa asked.
"Nothing. Now, come Leon, or face the consequences." Cloud ordered.
Leon gulped, then did as he was told. HE was never seen form again, just kidding but the two did disappear to the darkest depths of the house.
"I'm bored." Demyx said.
"Me too." Sora sighed. "I'm going to Tidus'." So he left.
"Wanna play Monopoly?" Roxas suggested.
"Ya!" Demyx said. Zexion nodded. "No cheating!" Tifa told Yuffie.
They sat down and play Monopoly.
By midnight, Demyx had fallen asleep in Zexion's lap, Yuffie had cheated twice and was now locked in a closet somewhere, Tifa gave up and started playing Grand Theft Auto on her PSP Roxas was losing and Zexion was hardly trying.
"Does anyone know where some rope is?" Cloud asked, receiving weird looks.
"I do!" Yuffie's voice was muffled due to being in a closet.
Cloud let her out and Yuffie handed him rope. "Have fun!"
"Didn't need to know that..." Roxas said.
Zexion just made a face. Tifa grinned.

"And why exactly were at a girl scout camp to begin with?" Axel asked, laughing.
"Kadaj told them I was a girl and they believed them so I ended up wearing a and a tube top. The girls were jealous of me cuz I had bigger boobs than them...and I'm a dude!" Riku exclaimed.
"They must've been some pretty flat-chested chicks." Axel said.
"Ya really..."Riku sighed.
"Ya know, I think I'd be okay with you going out with Roxie." Axel said.
Riku looked lost in his thoughts. "...What about you though?"
"As they say, there are plenty other seas in the fish. Or something like that."
With that, Riku burst out laughing. "It's fish in the sea, Axel."
"That too."
