It was around 2:00 in the morning and I still was awake.I couldn't go to sleep,because Sora's sad face haunted my thoughts. ever since last night...-

Sora collapsed on my bed with me in his arms. His lips trailing down my neck,leaving soft kisses all down my neck.I giggled as He gently sucked on my earlobe

"someone's needy."I teased gazing up at him

He looked down at me"needy for you."

My heart sank at those words. not because of Sora himself but because I wished that Roxas would say something like to me and actually mean it.

I offered him a smile"that's very sweet,Sora."

His happy expression left his face"what's wrong?"

"I'm sorry Sora...I c-can't do this."I whispered,fearing the look on his face

"but you said-"He started but I didn't let him finish

"I know what I said. but I can't,I'm sorry."I gently pushed him off of me and stood up,away from him

Sora's sad expression never left his face. He just sat there,confused"b-but I don't understand."

I took a deep breath before continuing"Sora...I thought I could make love with you...move on from.. him."I bit my lip at the last part"but I can't...it doesn't feel right."

He stood up,looking at me with his sad blue eyes"but I was ready to."

I gently took his hand"I know Sora...I'm sorry but I can't..."I trailed off looking for the right word"I can't use you. and that's exactly what I would be doing."

He let out a sad sigh as I rubbed his hand"I-I guess I understand."

"I've tried telling myself that I could forget about him...but I guess I honestly can't."I whispered softly"It's my fault you developed feelings for me too."

Sora leaned down and kissed me on the forehead"I better go. night Alena."

I watched him leave my room,I quickly followed him down the stairs"wait Sora!"I called to him

He turned around at the door,His hand on the knob,He looked at me sadly"a-are we still Friends?"I asked hesitantly

He finally smiled a little"yeah...of course we are."

a smile also graced my face"good.I'm glad."

I watched him wave and walk out the tried to put on a brave I knew he was really hurting.


After a few more restless moments,I climbed out of my bed and walked downstairs to the kitchen.I opened the fridge and took out a soda,gulping it down.

I sat down at the table and ran a hand through my bed hair"ugh."I groaned to myself. It was only me in the house again. My mom is out of course,doing god knows who or what.

It was all quiet until I heard a jingling sound. My eyes flew towards the front door,was that my mom? it better be.

"damn door."I heard someone curse under their breath

I rolled my eyes,yep it's my mom.I grabbed my soda and drinked it,sitting there casually"well well look who's home."I spat at her

She froze as she saw me sitting there. She dropped her purse on the counter"what are you doing up?don't you have school tomorrow?"

"wow Mom,I'm surprised you remember I go to school."I said sarcastically

She ignored my sarcasm as she poor herself a glass of water"don't give me that tone."

I took the last sip of my soda and crushed the can with my fingers"whatever,I'm going to bed."I threw the crushed can in the trash and started for the stairs

"ungrateful brat."I heard her mumble

tears started to well in my eyes" no... your ungrateful mother."

"what the hell does that mean?"She snapped at me

I whirled around to face her"it means that you are so busy trying to find a replacement for Dad,When you can't even see that already have someone!"I yelled,letting out my pent up anger

"I have no one."She said,drinking down her water

"no mom!you have me!remember? your Daughter!"I insisted,tears running down my cheeks"but if you don't watch soon you won't even have that."I choked the last part

"you threaten me again,and you'll wish you weren't born."She said coldly

"I wasn't threatening you for gods sake!"I cried"I was warning you!"

My mom just scoffed and walked to her bedroom,slamming the door loudly.I was so angry that I wanted to spit at her,I clinched my fists and ran upstairs,slamming my own door.


The next morning,I got up late.I groaned and sat up,running a hand through my hair.I yawned and looked at the clock,my eyes widened"holy crap!"I yelled as I threw off my blanket and ran to the shower

I quickly showered and dressed then grabbed my bag as I headed downstairs.I skitted to a halt at my mom's door.I quietly opened the door and peeked inside,as usual there was no sign of my mother.

sighing I whirled around and grabbed a snack bar and ran out the door.

As I ran a couple of roads,I stopped and bent over to catch my breath."gotta...keep...going."I encouraged myself

Suddenly a car pulled up.I looked up as the window rolled down,my eyes widened,Roxas was staring back at me,casually smirking"need a ride babe?"

I narrowed my eyes as I straightened back up"no thanks."I walked right past him.

"come on Alena,your late enough as it is."He called as He rode slowly beside me.I groaned and ran to the passenger side and slid in.

Roxas took off as soon as I closed the door.I gasped as he did a sharp turn,I gripped the side of the seat"do you mind?"I spat

He smirked in response"can't be anymore late."

Soon we parked in his spot at school.I gulped as the silence came upon us,Roxas looked at me with a curious face"so why were you so late this morning?"

I grabbed my bag,quickly climbing out of the car"see ya."I yelled over my shoulder,running into the building

Thankfully I managed to sneak into my seat without getting caught but I don't know. Kairi gave me a concerned glance,I shrugged casually

"ah so nice of you to finally join us, Ms Hatham."called my teacher, Mr Highwind

I chuckled nervously"nice to be here."

The class all laughed at my reply,I grinned as Mr Highwind rolled his eyes"don't be late again,Ms Hatham."

"yes sir!"I saluted him

The classroom door opened as Roxas stepped through,He gave Mr Highwind a late pass and sat in his desk,next to me. I felt my face heat up, as He gazed at me.

I coughed and started writing notes,or at least tried to keep up. Kairi leaned in close,Her eyes watching the teacher"why were you late Alena?"

"shhh Kairi,I'm trying to learn here."I whispered back at her,trying to appear casual.


At lunch, Kairi and Olette hounded me with questions.I just sat there doodling on my text book.

"alright,Alena,spill."Kairi barked at me

I looked up and acted casual"spill what?"

Olette growled"why were you so late?"

"and what is up with you and Roxas?"Kairi concluded

I rolled my eyes and sat my pencil down"just had another fight with my mom last night. that's all."

Olette looked at me sadly"I'm sorry Alene...you don't deserve the stuff your mom puts you through."

"which brings up a subject,I need to ask one of you."I replied slowly

They both nodded for me to continue"I'll uh be needing a place to stay for a while. "

Olette's eyes softened"I would Alene,but I can't,my grandparents are in town and our house is full."

I sighed in disappointment"well that's alright."My eyes met Kairi's"and what about you Kai?"

She suddenly appeared nervous"um...I can't either Alena.I'm sorry."

Narrowing my eyes at her,I scoffed lightly"wow,that's really nice of you Kairi."

Her lips were quivering as she stood"I'm sorry Alena. you just can't stay with me."She grabbed her stuff and ran off

I stared after her,blinking in confusion,Olette chuckled nervously,I picked up on that immediately"okay Olette,what's going on?I know you know."

She suddenly became sad,shaking her head"I..can't tell you."She whispered

my eyes widened in shock"you can't tell me?but Olette,I'm your best friend too!"

Olette placed her hand on mine"it's not mine to tell,Kairi's going to have to tell you."

I growled in confusion,I stood up grabbing my bag"screw this!"I immediately ran up the school steps,determined to find Kairi

Shortly I found her by her locker,I grabbed her hand and dragged her to the girls bathroom"what?Alena let go of me!"She screeched

I didn't answer her as I pushed her inside,I made sure we were alone before I locked the door.I placed my hands on my hips,staring right at her" what are you two hiding?"

Kairi shook her head"I can't tell you!you would hate me forever!"

what? I looked at her seriously"Kairi,please,tell me what's going on?"

She looked down at the ground"I-I've been...s-seeing Sora."She squeaked out

that was it? I laughed softly"um..wow..how long?"

"for a few weeks now."She said

my heart dropped,a few weeks? then that means... I gasped,my eyes wide,Kairi frowned"what's wrong Alena?"

I shook my head"nothing,um I have to go."

Kairi squeaked"see?I knew you would hate me."

I laughed at her expression"Kai,take it easy,I'm not mad."

I raced out of the bathroom and outside,my eyes scanning everywhere for Sora.I finally spotted him,next to... Roxas... Great just great.

Making my way over to them,I saw Roxas's blue eyes look me up and down,I shivered at his gaze but quickly hid it,I put a hand on Sora's shoulder"Sora,can I talk to you for a minute?"

He nodded and followed me across the lawn,away from Roxas.I took a deep breath and turned around"um Sora."I began nervously"w-where you seeing Kairi when you were sort of with me?"

His eyes widened in realization"oh crap."He muttered

I growled"Sora!how can you say it like that!you knew you were with someone still you came to me."

my heart dropped to the ground again,oh my god. my anger suddenly boiled up"your just like Roxas."I accused

Sora shook his spikey head"no Alena no.I...ugh,this is complicated."

I stared at him"complicated?"I repeated"this is not complicated,it's screwed up!"

He sighed and looked at the ground,hung his head low in shame,I glared at him"you made Kairi watch us,just like Roxas let me watch him with Namine."I said,sadly"god,I made my best friend watch that."

"Alena...I'm sorry."

"no,don't apologize to me."I stated,pointing a finger at him"go apologize to Kairi."

Sora immediately took off into the school.I sighed,rubbing my forehead tiredly,I didn't hear footsteps behind me"Alena."

I jumped and turned around,Roxas was standing right behind me,He was close enough so I could smell his wonderful scent.I swallowed hard"Roxas."I replied

He smiled down at me"notice anything different?"

I frowned in confusion,huh?"what are you talking about?"

He gently turned me towards the popular table,He bent low to my ear,I could feel his hot breath on my ear"notice someone missing?"

My eyes scanned the table when it hit me,like a ton of bricks"Namine."I whispered,my head turned towards him"where's Namine?"

Roxas gently blew in my ear,sending shivers through my spine"She moved a few days ago."

my heart suddenly fluttered"m-moved?"I asked softly

He smiled,gently brushing my hair behind my ear"that means. no more reason for you not to believe my feelings for you."

I blushed as I looked away from him"I..uh."I laughed nervously

"I also heard,you need a place to stay for a while. your welcome to stay with me."He whispered,his forehead on mine

my heart started to pound"what?"I whispered,sure I didn't here him

Roxas leaned in towards me,our lips inches apart"stay."He kissed the top of my lips"with"then the bottom lip"me"then He caught my mouth in a full kiss

I gasped as he poured his passion into the kiss,I wrapped my arms around his neck,deepening the kiss. Roxas returned the kiss,making it deeper then ever before

We broke apart for air,I shivered,gasping as I layed my head on his chest"I...I can't Roxas... If I live with you...it would be a-

He kissed me hungrily,cutting off my protest. His tongue darted in my mouth,exploring me,taking me in.I sucked on his lower lip"Roxas."I whispered against his lips

"mmmm?"His response,licking every corner of my lips then my neck

I closed my eyes,enjoying his lips on my neck"I...I missed you."I whispered,finally admitting it

Roxas looked down at me,his eyes full of love and lust"I missed you more."

I placed my hands on his chest tenderly,I looked up at him"i-is this right though?"

"doesn't it feel right?"He asked me back,a sort of daring in his voice

I swallowed the hard lump in my throat. This does feel right. But what if Namine comes back?or what if he finds some other girl?

"yes,it does."I finally replied,I pulled him down by his shirt,his lips crashing against mine. Roxas wrapped his arms around me tightly,kissing me back hungrily.

All I know is This. For me,Roxas is the one. and I'll never feel for another the way I felt about him.

~The End


A/N

Okay everyone,this is the end.I know it's very short. but honestly,I don't know how much further I could have taken this storyline.

and with Namine gone,Roxas has no reason to keep Alena waiting:)

But hey at least,It has a Happy Ending,right? Alena finally got Roxas to really love her. and that was the main plot of this story:)

Thank you all for reading and Reviewing:)
