Chapter 5: Party time!

I look out of my window waiting for Sora to come in my room and tell me to hurry up and start getting ready for the party. I wasn't really excited for it because I've never been to a party before so I wouldn't know how to behave or do anything exciting like I knew all of the other people that were there would. I sigh and go over to my closet and begin to choose what I was going to wear at the party. I grab a yellow top with red on the sleeves and decide to wear my bathing suit as my shorts. I mean who doesn't do that. I've seen tons of people do that during the summer.

I put my outfit on my bed and go into my bathroom to take a shower to relieve some of my stress. I get into the shower after taking my clothes off and start washing my hair. After my shower I start to brush my teeth and comb my hair. After I did all of my bathroom things I walk into my room and begin to put my clothes on and Sora comes into my room and asked if I was ready to go to Riku's party. I nod and grab some water on our way out to Sora's car.

We get in and I could tell that it was going to be extremely hot during the party, but it would all be worth it to see Axel without a shirt on. I blush at the thought of Axel standing close to me without his shirt on. I sigh and try to calm myself down or something bad may happen.

"So are you exited for the party, Roxy?" Sora asks seeming calmer than usual for a change.

"Yea" I say quietly "but why are you so calm today Sora, I thought that you would be blasting your mouth off at how exiting and fun the party would be"

He smiles "Well I don't feel like getting into a car crash for one, and I also don't want to seem too exited and immature to Riku."

"Oh" I say, "so you're trying to impress him?"

He blushes "Well it's not like that Roxas, I just really want him to like me"

I smile "Ok, just please don't embarrass me in front of Axel while we're there please."

"Ok Roxas, although I'm pretty sure you would embarrass yourself somehow" he says while smiling.

I sigh and we soon end up in Riku's driveway and we get out of the car to go see where Riku was. We found him inside the kitchen getting some food when he noticed us and waved at us. We go over to him and he was smiling and looking at Sora.

I look up at him "Uh do you know where Axel is" I ask timidly.

"Yeah, he's over at the pool" he asks knowing why I asked where he was.

I smile and rush over to the pool and see Axel was in the pool. I smile and sit on the edge of the pool and wait until he saw me. It didn't take long for him to notice me and he came over to me and climbed up onto the edge of the pool and sat there next to me. I blush at his shirtless body that was dripping wet.

He smiles "I'm glad you made it to the party, Roxy."

"Yeah, it's the first party I've ever been to" I say rubbing the back of my head"

"Really Roxas, I'm pretty sure that you've been invited to other parties." He says with a confused face.

I shake my head and look at him. He smiles, stands up, and brings me inside the house. We go into the kitchen and he grabs some food while I followed behind him and got a few snacks onto a plate that I grabbed. We go into the living room to eat on the couch and there were barely any people in there. I look at Axel and he smiles.

"Axel, what am I supposed to do at a party?" I ask trying to not sound like an idiot.

He looks at me "Well the number one thing to do is have fun with someone you like" he says winking at me.

I blush and feel him grab my hand. I smile and grab his hand feeling the warmth he radiated.

"Want to go to the pool," he asks me getting up.

I nod and we go outside to the pool and I take my shirt off so I wouldn't get it wet. I saw Axel smile at me when I took my shirt off and I felt kind of embarrassed. Axel and I go into the water and it felt cold at first but I got used to it after a while. Axel kept asking me to go to the deep end but I kept refusing because I didn't now how to swim. I stayed near the ladder to get out just in case something bad happened.

I saw Sora and Riku come out of the house and sit on the beach chairs. I sigh and look at Axel who was playing some sort of pool game.

I get out of the pool and go into the house after I got mostly dry. I walk upstairs trying to find a quite place to sit down and think. I open a door and see that it was a room with a bed and had no one in it. I go in and sit in a chair and wonder why I ever came to this party. I knew that it wasn't going to be fun but I came anyways. The only thing that was good about this party was that I got t hold Axels' hand for a while and got to see him shirtless.

I sigh and look out of the window that was in the room and see that all of the other people outside were having a better time than I was, which was good. I walk around a little bit for no reason and try to think of what to do after I got back outside. I didn't have much time to think before I heard the door to the room open and see that it was two possibly drunk guys making out and undressing each other too. I gasp and walk out of the room trying to not have eye contact.

I made it out of the room and sit on the stairs. I felt like being alone but I wanted someone here to talk to me. I look around and see a velvety haired teen on the couch reading a book and his blond haired friend next to him looking kind of tired and trying to fight off sleep but was having some trouble. I sigh and wish that Axel would be next to me, holding me in his arms while we listen to some music and maybe kiss or make out once or twice.

I see Axel enter the house and looked rather worn out. He sees me and walks over to where I was sitting and sits next to me.

"What are you doing here sitting all alone" He asks me and holds my hands.

"Well I wasn't having much fun outside and you were preoccupied with playing with the other people in the pool and I didn't want to bother you while you were having fun" I say looking at my lap feeling supper shy.

He hugs me "Don't worry Roxy, if you want to do something with me all you have to do is ask me and I would be more than happy to do whatever you want to do."

I sigh, "Can I ask you something Axel?"

He looks at me in question "Sure, what is it?"

I look up into his eyes "Well, are we dating or are we just friends."

"Would this answer your question?" He says lifting my chin up with his finger and brings his lips down closer to mine.

I could feel my heart pounding in my chest and lift my head up closer to his. Our lips touch and his lips tasted like cotton candy. I grab his hand and I felt his other hand rest on my cheek. When we separated I could feel how hot my cheeks have gotten. I smile and hug Axel as tightly as I could. He puts his arms around me and rests his chin on my head.

When it was time to go I asked Sora if I could stay with Axel for the night. He agreed and said that he would explain everything to our parents when he got back home. I smile and went to Axel to tell him I could spend the night with him. He smiles and we get into his car. He turns on the radio and my favorite song was on. We listened to it on the way to his house while I kept overthinking how the rest of the night would go.

When we got to his house we went to his room, after taking our showers, and cuddled in his bed while watching a movie he picked out from his movie collection. It was a horror movie and I'm pretty sure he wanted it so that I would be scared and so that he could hold me.

After the movie was over we lay in his bed and after a kiss goodnight, we went to sleep in each other's arms. I could also smell the faint scent of him while he slept.
