A/N: Wow.. It's been an eternity hasn't it? Both Mamotte and I apologize for the really long absence but a lot of things happened. For one thing about three months ago I had the chapter done… and of course my laptop broke… So I lost the will for a while to write as well as getting caught up in all of my class work. BEING A SENIOR ISN'T EASY GUYS! So now that summer's finally arrived we are going to finish Rose de la Purete.

Chapter 10

Finding, Wanting, Having

What can I say about Kairi? Well I suppose there are many things but the best word to describe her would be insufferable. She kicks my ass in Halo without even trying (something a girl should not be able to do) and she uses me as a damn mannequin whenever I have a date coming up… not that… going to the Fair with Roxas was a date. The fact still stood that at six o'clock on Saturday morning I was pissed. Due to the wet dream I had during the night I hadn't slept so well and I was finally warm and cuddled into my covers when out of nowhere the lights flicked on and there in the doorway stood the Barbie queen.

"WHAT THE FUCK KIARI?" I jolted up right in the bed. Bitch practically gave me a heart attack.

"Don't tell me you forgot your date already?" She smirked and made her way over to my closet. Normally I would protest about anyone going through my closet because of my… unmentionables… but I was too discombobulated to get in another screaming match. I was exhausted.

"Go away… please! I'm tired." Flopping back down on my bed I pulled the covers over my head with a loud exasperated groan.

"Not a chance. You know our pact. I help you with Calculus and when you go on a date I get to dress you." She pulled out a couple of tight skinny jeans looking them over for stains.

Why did I even make that pact? Oh right. Because I'm terrible at math.

"Just don't make me look stupid…" I mumbled and cuddled into the covers, trying to catch a couple more Z's while Kairi dug through my clothes. Sadly that didn't last long. The covers were yanked off me and I found a pair of dark washed jeans thrown over my face.

"mmmm… I dun wanna….." Maybe if I was stubborn enough she'd go away.

"Alright fine… I guess you'll just fail math then." She replied casually and started to walk out of the room. Of course that was not an option. I had to at least get a C in the class. I sat up and scratched my head, getting up.

"Pick out my shit… I'm gonna go shower…" I knew just how to wake myself up.

Once in my bathroom I locked the door and made my way over to the mirror. Ug... I really needed more chub. Yeah for all those people who complain bout being fat… You don't know how lucky you are.

My mindset wasn't in the right place. So I brought it over to the one thing that would get my blood flowing and wake me up. Roxas. There were so many things I could do to get off. Put him in a cute little maid outfit and fuck him in a café or maybe something more exotic… like making love in a steamy jungle. But.. No matter what fantasy I wanted to think of… it never seemed right. Then finally… I settled on Roxas, lying on the beach body exposed for only me too see, to touch. The setting sun glowed over his beautiful features as he laid there in the sand smiling at me.

That worked. I instantly hardened as I turned on the shower water and slipped off my Spongebob boxers, keeping Roxas smiling face in my mind. It was a good thing I knew what a naked Roxas looked like. It kept my fantasies so much more real.

I stepped into the shower, a shuddery breath escaping me as I ran my hands through my red curls, just above my aching member. Yeah. I'm a natural redhead. Hard to believe, no?

Roxas was at the forefront of my mind, the vision sweeping over my eyes as I slid down the wet shower wall, legs spread wide. My hands trembled as I began to finger myself. Oh… It would have been so much better if Roxas were here, his cute little fingers working around inside of me. I wondered… how good he was at giving head. Surely he wasn't experienced in that sort of thing?

After a bit of deep fingering, I took a long hard stroke on my cock, letting a bit of pre-semen dribbled down the edge. A loud moan tore through my throat as Roxas smiled at me and whispered the one thing I wanted to hear. I love you, Axel.

That was enough. A couple more strokes and I came, squirting my cum onto the wall in front of me. I was basking in the afterglow of my masturbation when of course a loud knock sent screeching, cold chills up my spine.

"Hurry up Axel! There's so much we have to do!" Kairi yelled in her… not so soft voice. With a heavy sight I stood on shaky legs and continued with my shower.

XxxXxxX

The ride to Roxas house was almost unbearable, the anticipation of bringing him to the Fair overwhelming my senses and driving me over the edge of pure insanity. I was fairly pleased with the outfit Kairi had picked out for me. She'd given me a green wife beater that clung to my body, showing off the muscle and tone I had along with the dark washed jeans and checkered converse. Of course, I added my own flair with all of my accessories (not jewelry) and tied my hair back in a tight ponytail. It was too hot out today to have hair on my neck.

Finally, I reached my destination, my stomach in knots as I pulled up into Hayner's drive way. I had to learn to breathe again, gripping the steering wheel so tight that my knuckles went white. I looked over to the bouquet of roses I picked from our little garden in the back. I knew Roxas would like getting flowers. He'd probably be ecstatic. I mean… He was excited when I gave him my ring. He'd probably bounce up and down when he saw what I brought him.

After a couple more deep breaths I pulled myself out of the car and walked up the path to the front door. It was… odd that I was getting so nervous about this. My stomach felt like it was gonna fall out my ass. After a moment more of straightening my shirt and fixing my hair I knocked on the door and waited, holding my breath. Thank god Catalina answered.

"Oh! You're Axel, right?" Catalina was a very pretty woman, a bit stout (due to the loss of her figure during pregnancy) but pretty. I needed to remember my manners around her.

"Yes. And you're Hayner's mother?" I smiled.

"Yes, Yes." She moved aside. "Please come in. Roxas will be right down." I put the roses behind my back and waited, tapping my foot slightly out of nerves.

"Roxas!" Catalina yelled.

"Hold on!" A call came from up the stairs.

"Axel's here!" Catalina sounded a bit impatient. Maybe she was in the middle of something?

"Hold on!" Roxas yelled again.

I chuckled softly to myself. Roxas was a little spunky and I was a bit surprised he was acting like this with his host mother. In my family, being polite to adults is crucial. My mom used to spank us when we were rude. Ug… I can still feel that sting.

"He's a good kid." I said softly, smiling. It was to reassure myself and to try and help get the tension out of the air.

Catalina laughed. "He is but he's a handful too." I could see that. Roxas was a bit spunky.

"How so?" I asked, a bit curious.

"He likes to sneak into the liquor cabinet. He doesn't drink much but…" Catalina trailed off as Roxas walked down the stairs. His clothes were really tight. Cute and form fitting. His jeans were a light blue and on his top he wore a white short-sleeved shirt.

"Jeeze Rox, how can you breathe?" I teased before taking out the roses. "For you."

"I am not a big person." He spouted before seeing the flowers. "I do not like red." He said before a soft smile broke onto his beautiful face. "But I love these. Thank you."

That made me feel great. Roxas liked the roses (despite the color) and that put me at ease. Though I did want to know why he didn't like red…

"Next time I'll get you a different color then, 'kay?" I grinned.

Roxas nodded. "White is the color for friendship and red is the color for love." I blinked. So that was why… Roxas didn't think I felt for him. But even if he did… I'm sure he would have cast it aside as puppy love.

I smiled softly. "I see… then next time I'll get you white unless… we end up falling in love."

Roxas looked at me seriously before bursting into laughter. Wow… well that put a damper on my mood a bit.

"You make funny jokes." He giggled. But I wasn't joking… Did I even have a chance with him?

I decided it was best to drop the matter and I took his hand softly. "You ready to go?"

"Yes." Roxas answered and smiled. I could see Catalina staring at our hands.

"Be back by twelve." She said softly. I was… a bit embarrassed but… I hoped I'd be getting a kiss tonight. In fact I was planning on it.

I led Roxas out into the car and once we were buckled I backed out of the driveway.

"So why were you taking so long up stairs?" I asked slightly amused. Roxas laughed lightly at the question.

"I had to get the pants on." I figured as much. After I merged onto the freeway I handed Roxas the Fair pamphlet. He looked slightly confused.

"This tells you all about the Fair and what we can do at it. You can pick some things to do." If I had looked I would have probably seen Roxas' cute, quizzical look as he scanned over the pamphlet. Huh… I've always had to wonder if reading English was hard for him.

"This." He pointed to the roller coaster. "I want to ride the roller coaster." I grinned. Yeah. I was always one for the big rides. But… did Roxas know how big it really was? I assumed so. He wasn't a stupid boy.

We arrived at the Fair grounds after a bit of driving and I parked my car near the middle of the lot. It wasn't too crowded, which was nice. We'd be first in most of the lines.

"Alright. Let's get going." I helped Roxas out of the car.

"Shouldn't we get tickets first?" he asked softly as he shut the door behind him. I nodded and led him over to the booth. Of course most girls think I'm attractive… not so much for my lanky body but for my personality and my face… well… maybe my body too. And of course the creepy carny woman at the ticket booth kept eying me with a suggestive look.

"Forty tickets please." I kept my eyes off to the side as she grinned at me with her rotting teeth.

"There you go hot stuff." She giggled and I quickly snatched up the tickets and moved away from the line. Roxas looked… a little ticked at the woman. He turned to me the emotion instantly gone from his face.

"Why so many tickets?" he asked looking confused.

"Well the rides here are like three or four tickets per person. So forty should be a good number. They're also good if we want to play games." I grinned as Roxas smiled, nodding in understanding.

"Oh."

"Well Let's get to the coaster." I chuckled and led Roxas through the Fair to the large Demon Drop. It looked so fun. I turned to Roxas who instantly froze and looked up at the ride. He was probably scared. "Hey… It's okay. I'll be right here with you."

We got strapped into the ride and I could feel Roxas shaking a bit. Poor kid… I felt pretty bad we'd started moving so it was too late to get off. We rose up the hill higher and higher. I turned to Roxas who looked absolutely horror stricken.

"Hey… you okay?" I asked softly as we neared the top.

"N-No…" he responded voice strained.

"It's gonna be okay." I said and gripped his hand tightly.

After the stop at the top I took a deep breath as we plunged down.

xXXxXXx

After the ride had coasted to a stop, I could feel my nerve ending alive and reeling with senses. Ah the adrenaline rush of a roller coaster. Nothing like it. Roxas… on the other hand, look like he was about to puke. He was breathing hard and his eyes were scrunched shut. Great… he probably hated me now.

As the chubby carny took our harnesses off I pulled Roxas close and led him to the nearest garbage can. I started to rub his back… something that my mom did for us when we wee feeling sick. "We'll go on easier rides and we can play some games…" I said softly.

Roxas only nodded in response and then the nasty sounds of gags and burps came as Roxas emptied the contents of his stomach into the can. I continued to rub his back. I wasn't really grossed out… but I felt really bad that I'd got him onto the ride.

"Just let it all out Rox…" I whispered softly. As soon as the sickness came on it went away and Roxas pulled back wiping his mouth.

"Sorry…" he said quietly, looking embarrassed.

I shook my head, upset that Roxas would even think to apologize for that. "No I'm sorry… It's my fault…. Here… let's get you a drink." God I felt so stupid. I should have thought things over before we'd gotten on the ride.

"It is not your fault. I wanted to go on it. Quit being so nice." He nudged me lightly as we stopped in front of a food booth. A pained chuckled escaped me.

"I can't help it." I answered, picking up a bottle of water from a cooler and paying the woman at the booth. I handed it to Roxas who greedily gulped it down. An idea sprung into my head. I was extremely good at the dart games… call it luck if you want… I call it skill! But I wanted to win Roxas something.

"Roxas… I want to win you a prize."

He blinked softly, his cheeks puffed up and full of water. Absolutely adorable.

"Like a bunny?" He asked after he'd swallowed. I needed to clarify what he was talking about. I hope he didn't mean a real bunny.

"Like a stuffed animal." I said softly and leaned on him lightly.

"Like a bunny?" he repeated. Well good he meant a stuffed animal. You never know with Roxas.

"Yeah. I can win you a bunny. Let's go find a booth with one."

We didn't search for very long when I spotted a large white bunny on the top shelf of a balloon dart game. The man running the game seemed quite bored. I handed him five bucks for a game. This would be simple. And I was right. Well of course I was right. I always am.

"Congratulations. What do you want." The man spoke monotonously as he leaned back against the backboard.

"The white bunny please." I grinned down at Roxas who seemed to just glow with happiness. It made me fell a lot better to know that he was having a good time. Once I'd retrieved the bunny from the man I handed it to Roxas. The blond took it into his arms and cuddled it close.

"What are you going to name it." I had to say I was curious. Maybe he'd name it something French… I always liked hearing Roxas speak his native tongue. It was… a turn on.

"Axel." He answered softly and held the little creature out in front of him. I blinked and my heart skipped a beat. Had I heard right?

"Really?" I asked not able to stop the blush that formed on my cheeks. I was so flattered.

"Yes." He answered. "Will you spray your smell on it?"

Whoa… He didn't mean… What I thought he meant. I suddenly felt… really heated.

"How do you want me to do that?" I lifted his chin with a finger, a hint of lust behind my words. Roxas didn't seem to notice.

"You know that stuff you use? The spray stuff… cologne? But it is not as expensive." He looked to the side blushing. Blushing! He was blushing! I felt so proud.

"Sure. I have some in the car. I'll spray it when we're heading back."

Roxas eyes lit up at that. "Okay."

I could feel my stomach grumble lightly. We hadn't eaten anything since we'd gotten there.

"Let's go get some food." I took his hand once more. I suppose that was becoming a habit of mine. We headed over to a sweet smelling booth where they were selling some funnel cake. Yum… my favorite. "God it smells so good." I grinned and closed my eyes, letting the sweet smell of fair food flow into my nostrils.

"it smells like grease." Roxas laughed softly.

"Yeah but a skeleton like me could use some fatty food." I answered looking down at my thin stomach. Guys my age should not be this thin…

"You are healthy." He smiled poking my stomach.

"But I'm sick looking." I pouted and rubbed my tummy.

"I think you look fine." Roxas grinned up at me.

I sighed as I ordered the cake. I was flattered that Roxas said that but I was sure he didn't actually mean it. "Yeah Fine. But really… I'm not attractive… I need more muscle."

Roxas laughed at me. "Who says you need more muscle to be attractive?"

I picked up the cake and led Roxas over to a table. Fumbling with my fork I decided to just use my fingers. "I do… at least… I'd look better with it."

Roxas smiled once more and took a piece of cake. "I like you just the way you are."

Of course I didn't believe him… no one could really convince me. "Thanks." I picked up a piece of cake and slipped it between Roxas lips grinning at the content look upon the boy's face. After he chewed and swallowed, he ran his tongue lightly over the pads of my fingers, causing a shiver to run up my spine.

"I already had a piece of cake in my hand." He said in a matter of fact voice. I chuckled.

"But I want to feed you."

"Ohm… then do it again. " he placed his piece of funnel cake into my palm.

I flushed softly and repeated the process this time slipping my fingers between his lips. Roxas closed his mouth softly around my digits his tongue rubbing around them. I couldn't help but let out a soft noise. I looked straight into his beautiful blue eyes. We stared at each other for a long moment before he pulled back.

"I got your fingers in there." He smiled softly.

"So you did." A slight grin came over my face. I noted the sun was starting to set, its glorious light sinking into the horizon with shades of pink, orange and yellow.

"Should we head to the wheel?" he asked looking up at the sky.

I nodded. "Yeah… we don't want to loose a spot if the line gets too long."

We made our way over to the line, Roxas clutching little Axel in his arms. We were two people from the front and soon a large line formed behind us. Hah… too bad for those suckers who wouldn't get to ride. Watching the fireworks from the Ferris wheel was… magical to say the least.

We got into the small chair and the ride began to take us up, higher and higher. Soon we were at the top the sky growing darker with each passing moment. I needed to start a conversation so I looked to Roxas.

"So… besides throwing up… did you have fun?"

"Yes." He answered softly holding little Axel close. "Very much."

"I'm glad." I paused for a moment thinking over what to say next. "I was really nervous coming over here."

Roxas looked to me with wide curious eyes. "Why?"

Well… it was now or never… "well… I guess." And of course the minute I was about to confess the fireworks started going off. The sky lit up in beautiful colors with loud thunderous booms. Roxas eyes were wide in awe and wonder.

"Wow! It is so pretty from up here!" He beamed and leaned forward which made me a little nervous. What a way to ruin today… having Roxas falling off the wheel.

"It kind of romantic…" I whispered softly, pulling Roxas close to me, my hand resting lightly on his hip.

He turned to me and blinked. "What?"

I couldn't wait anymore. With my free hand I lifted his little chin, looking into his deep blue orbs. Those same eyes that entranced me not too long ago…

"What?" Roxas repeated once more, staring back at me a deep blush on his cheeks. With my heart beating faster than I ever thought it could, I closed the gap between our lips, eyes closed, waiting for Roxas' response. After a moment I heard a soft, light sigh as the blond pressed back against my lips gently, lovingly. I couldn't believe this. I had waited for so long and now… it was finally happening. I was kissing Roxas. Deciding to take things a little further I kissed down to the corner of his lips and downward to his neck, leaving a hot wet kiss upon the skin there. I could feel Roxas trembling beneath me, his breaths coming out in soft pants as I began to suckle on the tender flesh, leaving my mark. After a moment of heated licks and pecks, I pulled back and looked into his eyes.

"Roxas… I really… Really like you." My hand was trembling as it wandered up to his soft little cheek. He looked so happy, his eyes sparkling and his lips turned upward in a broad grin.

"Oh Axel!" He pulled me in for another kiss. Lips crashed upon lips for a brief moment before we both pulled away. "I really really like you too." He whispered.

And that ended one of the happiest nights in my life.
