Arixa and Axel's Alphabet
Chapter 10
J is for Jealousy
We all get jealous sometimes. It can happen to the best and the worst of us but to Axel jealousy is unacceptable and must be dealt with accordingly.
The Flurry of Dancing Flames walked casually down the hallway towards the Grey Area. His mind drifted through the day's events mostly consisting Arixa (quelle surprise) He sauntered into the Grey Area and saw his love smiling and laughing.
He attempted to approach her when he saw that she was laughing with none other than Demyx. She threw her head back and laughed quite loudly at something the Sitar player had just told her.
Axel backed up a few steps and put his hand flat on his stomach. A feeling, unlike any other he had ever experienced, was forming. Although most of his new feelings were particularly good ones this one had a certain omen about it.
He marched over to Arixa and interrupted her conversation with Demyx. "Hey Axel how's it goin?" the blonde asked him. Axel simply ignored him and turned to Arixa "We have a mission together Rix" He said taking her hand.
Arixa gave Axel a puzzled look; he was acting rather peculiar today… "Bye Dem, I'll talk to you after my mission" She called to her friend. Demyx waved at the bluenette as she and Axel disappeared into a Dark Corridor.
The pair ended up in The Pride Lands for their mission. "So what did Saix want us to do here?" Arixa asked stretching out her lioness body "Actually he didn't send us here" Axel admitted. "Oh…?" Arixa asked.
Axel turned to her, his eyes on the soft dirt below them "I just didn't want you talking to Demyx" He said looking ashamed "Why?" She asked. Axel's ears flattened on his head at that question "I don't know… I had this strange feeling in my gut that told me to stop you" He explained.
Arixa nodded "You were jealous" She decided "What?" He asked. Arixa laughed showing her fangs "It means you didn't want Demyx taking me away from you" she explained still smiling. "It also means that you really do care about me"
Axel laughed quietly "I do care about you" he admitted "Enough to buy me a treat in Twilight Town?" She asked hopefully. Axel rolled his eyes "Is everything about ice-cream with you?" He asked. Arixa stuck her nose up in the air "Fine I'll just ask Demyx to buy me some"
"You're evil" Axel remarked opening a Dark Corridor for them both. Arixa grinned and said "But it worked didn't it?"
