Axel loomed over her and glared at the oncoming Nymph. One hand held a flame the other pushed Kairi behind him incase Larxene did through another knife. Larxene paused as she saw the flame in Axel's hand. "Going to roast me Axe?" She said mockingly using the nickname Roxas used for him. But Axel's quick wit struck back, "Dunno Larxy going to fry me?" Larxene rolled her eyes throwing one of her knives at Axel before turning on her heels and leaving. Her fun was over there was no point in fighting Axel she would just get in trouble later.
Axel smacked the oncoming knife to the ground before stepping away from Kairi. He began to walk away when Kairi spoke, "Thank you." It was a whisper but Axel still heard it and paused.
"Sorry for acting the way I did, I guess I'll always be here for you."
Kairi looked at the back of the redheaded man, "What?"
Axel just shrugged, "Come on. It's late."
Kairi followed Axel as he made his way to his room, he let Kairi take the bed and he took the floor. He began to drift to sleep wondering what his feelings were.
Yes, I know it's short. But you'll understand why soon enough.
