Drabble 10: Roxas Grows a Mustache
"Say, Axel," Roxas addressed his best friend, absentmindedly flipping through a magazine about sports cars, "I think I'm going to grow a mustache."
Axel, sitting across from Roxas, promptly made a strangled, gargling sound, and proceeded to spit out the whipped cream he had just sucked off the top of his frappucinno.
"What?" he hissed loudly, whipped cream lining his upper lip, as well as a speck on his nose. "WHAT?" The peaceful readers in the bookstore turned to glare at Axel as he stared dumbfoundedly at his friend.
"You're kidding, right?" Axel whispered in disbelief, wiping the whipped cream he had spat all over the table up with a napkin.
"Is it that preposterous?" Roxas scowled at his friend.
"Yes! I mean no! I mean – the thought just makes me shudder!" Axel then physically shuddered, as if to make his point. "It's just… disturbing!"
"What's disturbing is that whipped cream mustache you're working there." Roxas narrowed his eyes, angry.
Axel wiped furiously at his mouth in order to eliminate the evidence of his bad Starbucks etiquette. "Seriously Roxas. Don't do it. It just… can't end well."
"Why?" Roxas growled, putting down his magazine.
"I don't know..." Axel trailed off, leaning back in his chair. "You're just too… girly, I guess?"
"Girly?" Roxas screeched high-pitchedly. "How could you even think – "
"Miss?" a young girl with short black hair addressed Roxas, interrupting his rant. "Did you by chance drop this?" The stranger held out a baby panda cell phone charm.
"Oh yeah, I guess I did," Roxas said, pulling out his telephone. "I guess it fell off. Thanks!"
"No problem! It's super cute!" the girl commented before heading towards the line for coffee.
"Well, that was nice of… wait." Roxas grew pale. "Did she just call me… miss?"
Axel nodded solemnly.
"And did I just… respond to that?"
Again, all Axel had to do was nod.
Roxas put his head in his arms on the table and moaned. "Nooooo. Not again!"
"You failed to mention the fact that you own a baby panda cell phone charm," Axel added for good measure.
"It's cuuute," came Roxas's muffled reply.
"May I repeat: a baby girl panda. Not a manly adult panda. A baby girl! Are you sure you're male?" Axel asked teasingly, taking the charm from Roxas and dangling it in front of Roxas' eyes, which were now visible and staring at Axel.
"Give that back," Roxas snarled, and snatched the charm from Axel's hand. "What about your Hello Kitty alarm clock? Hmmm? You call that manly?" Roxas challenged, riled up.
"That was a gift from my precious older sister. This," Axel commented, stealing the charm back, "You bought, of your own choice, with your own money. You should be ashamed of yourself."
"Well you know what? Cute always wins." Roxas crossed his arms against his chest.
"Well, then you better not grow a mustache!" Axel exclaimed, and chuckled heartily.
Axel never even knew what hit him when Roxas chucked a cranberry orange scone at him.
"Scumbag," Roxas muttered at his fallen friend, unconscious on the floor, satisified.
