The Prince and 4 Bachelors
Disclaimer: no ownership of KH. I borrow characters though!
Cats! Fire! And kissing! Oh my!
Seifer paced around in one particular spot in the ball room, anxiousness making his cat tail twitch. Axel on the other hand, lounged on a love seat, seeming indifferent to everything around him.
"nyo! Where could the Prince be?! I'm so excited to show him what I have just for him nyo!" the beanie capped teen made a cat like smile upon his face as he fantasized about Roxas' reaction to his surprise. Axel furrowed his eyebrow, looking up at the idiotic cat before him.
"don't get your hopes up cat man." Axel spoke at once, as he snapped his fingers making a tiny flame land just under Seifers tail, causing smoke to arise.
"NYO!" Seifer screeched, spinning around and stomping on the little flame. "WHAT IS THE MATTER WITH YOU!? CAT HAIR IS FLAMIBLE!" the blond hissed. The red head just rolled his verdant eyes as if saying, 'what ever.' the blue eyed teen stared at the pyro in utter shock. "I BET YOU WANT ME TO GET BURNED! SO YOU CAN HAVE THE PRINCE TO YOURSELF!" Seifer hollered storming over towards Axel. The inferno shifter stayed where he was, upon the love seat ignoring what the cat teen was hissing about.
Just then, voice of the soon to be king was heard through out the ball room.
"what's going on in here?" quickly, Seifer spun around and dashed over to Roxas.
"Prince Roxas! I have something I must show you! Come on!" the older blond grabbed a hold of the princes wrist, about to leave the room.
"Seifer! that's my wrist! I need that to connect my hand to my arm!" the ocean blue eyed prince squeaked as he was dragged out of the room. Soon the room grew quiet, with the fire starter still in his same spot. His facial expression grew from cold hearted to a solemn and depressing look. His light green eyes dropped to the floor, half lidded, muttering under his breath.
"why don't you recognize me Roxas?" the rubicund haired teen laid his head on the arm of the chair, letting his eye lids lower more, until he was in a deep slumber. Everything going pitch black, with no sign of seeing light ever again.
::Dream Land::
(A/N: this part is a role play kind of thing so it'll get back to normal after the dream land ends)
Cloud: Roxas go play with Axel while daddy talks about grown up stuff ok?
Roxas: ok! -runs over to Axel- hi, I'm Roxas
Axel: hi… -little smile-
Roxas: you wanna play with me?
Axel: sure!
They both run off to a secret garden together, holding hands.
Roxas: wow! Pretty!
Axel: m hm…
Both boys wonder around still holding hands. Roxas giggles at everything around him while Axel smiles contently. Soon they stop at a little gazebo, marveling at the little cherry blossom pedals that float in the air lightly.
Roxas: Axel?
Axel: hm?
Roxas: can we always do this? I mean come here and play together, even when were older?
Axel: -turns to face Roxas- that's what friends do, right?
Roxas: -smiles- we'll be best friends forever and ever!
::End of Dream Land::
Mean while, Roxas was still being dragged by Seifer, towards the horse stables.
"Seifer! Why are you taking me to the horse stables!?" the blond prince shrieked. The neko teen stopped at one of the abandoned horse stables, letting go of Roxas' hand. He turned around gazing at the prince with his turquoise eyes, smiling calmly.
"listen for a moment." There was a silence in the stable until there was little meowing noises coming from the supposed deserted stall. Roxas' ocean blue eyes widened once the sound reached his ears.
"Seifer, are there…" the beanie capped man nodded slowly and opened the door revealing several little balls of fur meowing and pouncing around the golden stack of hay. The Strife prince put his hand to his mouth trying to cover a gasp as he marveled at such cute creatures. "kittens…" was the only thing Roxas could mutter out. The older blond ushered the younger of them to enter the stall, receiving the younger boys entrances as an answer. Seifer closed the stall door behind him as he entered last, sitting down next to Roxas as he picked up a little calico kitten out of the litter, offering it to him. Roxas accepted the mixed colored kitten, taking it in his arms and stroking it tenderly. "they're so cute Seifer." the blue eyed boy looked up at the cat prince with a enthusiastic smile across his face. The older blond smiled contently, not paying attention to the little kittens pouncing and chewing on him.
"their not the only ones." Seifer whispered getting closer towards Roxas. The Strife prince backed up against the wall of the horse stall, allowing the calico cat to pounce out of his arms.
"Seifer, what are you doing?" Roxas whispered as the cat man got closer. Seifers Turquoise eyes were fixed on the soft virgin lips that was just a kiss away from him. Just when both boys were as close as humanly possible, Roxas clutched Seifers broad shoulders trying to keep him arms length away. "I can't be doing this Seifer." Roxas whined in desperation for the older blond to move away.
"your highness, this is just flirting, it's not like I'm taking away your innocence." Seifer replied, gazing at the young prince with his Turquoise eyes. The strife prince looked away muttering under his breath.
"what we just did coming in here to look at these kittens what fine enough…" Seifers cat ears and tail lowered showing signs of sadness. Roxas looked back up at the beanie capped teen with a little smile. "but I thank you that you showed me this, I appreciate it so much." the cat man looked at the blonde prince with hope in his eyes. He then asked,
"um… your highness? Do you mind if I… kiss you?" a little blush appeared on the cat princes face turning his head away in embarrassment. Roxas pulled Seifers head back facing his own answering,
"of course you can." Seifer smile widened as he leaned in and placed a innocent kiss on Roxas' cheek. Leaving the young blond prince flattered with pink blush across his face.
Later during the night, The halls of Strife Castle were discreet like always. That is until foot steps echoed through out. A black cloaked figure was wondering around the halls, but one hall in particular. It was prince Roxas' hallway. The mysterious cloaked person stopped right in front of Roxas' double doors for a moment. The dark character reached out his black gloved hand for the door knob slowly. Suddenly there was a break in the silence when a voice called,
"what are you doing at my room?" the cloaked individual turned around to see none other than the blond prince himself standing in a white, oversized t-shirt. The dark form started walking off saying,
"visiting an old friend." clenched and unclenched his hands and then started walking after the mystery person.
"hey, don't walk away from me." Roxas spoke up still in motion. The cloaked man then started running down the stairs and the end of the hallway, through the ball room, out the door and into the flourishing garden. Unfortunately the strife prince was catching up very easily, reaching a gazebo in the square of the garden. Roxas started walking now that the cloaked figure had no where else to go. "who are you anyway? And what were you doing near my room?"
"like I said, I came to see an old friend. Is that so bad of a thing to do? After all these years, I thought you would have recognized your old friend when you saw me in the dinning room the first day we all came." Roxas furrowed his eyebrows and shouted,
"what are you talking about? Take off your hood, show your face now!" the figure shrugged and took off his hood, revealing his spiky fire red hair, verdant eyes, and little diamonds underneath the green orbs. The blond was taken back by surprise knowing now that is was Axel. "um, ok. Now that I know who you are, I can ask you again. Why were you near my room?" Axel heaved a sigh, feeling this was hopeless to get across.
"you still don't get it Roxas. You don't remember that day when we came to this garden and watched the cherry blossom pedals fall?" the strife prince paused, icy blue eyes widened in surprise.
"Axel? Is that really you?"
