Author's Thoughts: ARi here. I finally decided to update Mind Games and this chapter was fun to write. I promise the insanity will start fairly soon (if it hasn't already) and the plot will keep coming along.
Roxas: -sitting in his evil chair- I get to have some fun finally. Let's see, what to do, what to do?
Axel: Why am I always betrayed so!?
Roxas: Shut up, minion! There is much to do...
Axel: Yes, master. -cries-
ARi: Those two have gone insane for sure now.
Enjoy Chapter 2!
Our blond comrade was groaning. His head was pounding like a drum, making eyesight harder to work with. Without eyesight, he couldn't exactly move himself from his bed. If he didn't move from said position, he would get a rude awakening in the form of Axel which was not what he looking for at the moment. Still, he needed to get up as well for the After-Skate Charity Event too. Next time, he'll remember that sleeping isn't the best course of action when you are plotting.
In any case, Roxas had a dilemma on his hands as we know; the little plot that he was trying so hard to stitch together for Axel. He still needed a clever plan that would satisfy him and would also throw that redheaded bronco off his rocker. Sadly, all his brain had cooked up was the end results; Axel and himself together in the bed doing…well you know.
"Too much on the brain. Damn Axel." Roxas slapped his bare hands against his face, only realizing after the impact that it was not going to help with his head or his problem. "Sora would have gotten an idea already, the brainy brother he is." Roxas glared at the darkness his hands created over his eyes. He just wanted something to intrigue his brain; at this point, it didn't matter what the plan could be or consisted of.
Strangely, as soon as the thought reoccurred in his head about fifty times over, he could have sworn he heard a click noise. Like a click of the light switch in a dimly lit room; it had triggered in his head and made him almost overjoyed. No matter how cliché or quick it came like a miracle on Christmas Day, he had the plan and it was full proof. Reason being because he knew what to do and whom he would compromise with for it to work (We shall never know where the hell his brain developed its own click noise from either).
"Hey Roxy! Don't you have somewhere to go or are you waiting for me to open your door like the princess you are?" Roxas heard Axel shout at the top of lungs, hoping to provoke, as he was getting ready as well.
"Yeah, I'll be ready in a moment, Ax-el" Roxas shouted back, smirking as he walked toward his closet. Axel was in for it, for sure.
Will I like my game? Probably. Will you like my game? Hell no!
"So Roxas, where are we heading again? I know it has something to do with the words 'skate' and 'board' but that's all I know" Axel asked, poking Roxas as he was driving. No matter what activity it was, Axel could somehow multi-task whenever he pleased. He would be the only guy who could poke someone and drive without causing the wheel to turn or tussle.He was the only man who could walk across a highway while reciting the ABCs backwards (Once again, we will never know how this happened) and the only one who could be so sly yet so clueless.
"Oh, I could have sworn I did. Well, at any rate, it's a charity event with a skate competition included." Roxas remarked giving Axel his trademark "I hate your ass" look.
"How nice, supporting the orphans and kiddies. How, how you say, 'humble' you are for doing this, Roxas." Axel commented, clasping his hands together for a moment before touching the wheel again. "I would have doubt otherwise from my roommate."
"Well I'm glad I disproved your opinion of me, jackass. Wait, that reminds me…" Roxas grabbed his cell phone from his pocket and started dialing a number.
"Who are you calling-"
"Quiet…" Roxas said, hushing Axel as the phone started ringing. Axel, feeling slightly wounded, slouched a bit in the driver's seat and continued toward the park. Using his multi-tasking power, Axel tried to hear the conversation but failed miserably. This was due to the fact that the discussion was quiet and he just couldn't understand what the hell was going on.
"Uh huh…all right…yeah, that's fine…okay, I'll see you there…okay, bye." Roxas hung up his cell phone, holding a slight smirk before realizing that Axel was in the dark. Changing his face, he turned and gazed at the window.
"So…who was that you were talking to?" Axel asked, slightly moving his eyes at Roxas.
"Ah, nobody really. Just an old friend that I met awhile back." Roxas commented, still not giving Axel the time of the day for a proper answer.
"An old friend?"
"Yeah, though, this friend you haven't met, I'm pretty sure. Anyhow, we're meeting up at the event today so you'll get to meet them anyway." Roxas said, making random circles in the window. "I can't believe I almost forgot to call them. I've been dying to meet up." I hope this is working so far.
"Yeah, sure. This friend must be pretty cool if you want to meet up with them so badly." Axel commented, hoping to hide his strange feeling of…could it be jealousy?
"Yeah, pretty amazing. She's definitely awesome."
"Mmm, yeah." Axel said, getting more and more curious about this person. A girl? Well, that's nothing really. I mean, it's just a girl who happens to be his friend. Not a girlfriend or a partner or a lover or-
"Axel, you just passed the turn!" Roxas shouted, catching Axel off guard. "Shit…sorry. I was in my own zone for a moment there." He said, smirking a little. I'm getting distracted…what the hell.
So let the games begin!
Now, at this point, Axel was stalking about the area aimlessly. He was obviously moving around with no intent on going to a specific place. His baggy black pants were soaking up the sun, making his walk sound and feel like swimming in a beach. This annoyed him to no end but he was at least thankful for wearing his favorite green shirt and shoes. Sadly, being thankful at this pick of clothing wasn't doing much for him at the moment. All he could think about, as he walked to 'No Man's Land', was the event in the car.
"Why would he keep this 'gal pal' a secret from me? He could be planning something but then again, it didn't sound like that. Still, who is she?" Axel said, staring around at the various booths and people. At this kind of event, it is congested with loud people and loud things but for someone like Axel in deep thought, they weren't even there. Hell, they were imaginary in his mind…at least that how it was when he hit almost every person in his pathway thinking.
Suddenly, as someone shouted at him "Son of a bitch, watch it!" he heard the announcer scream something. "Ladies and gentlemen, Skate Bash was nothing compared to what this kid just pulled. Roxas Mihara, number nine, is a definite uprising star. Everyone give him a hand!" As soon as Axel heard this, he flicked off the guy and ran toward the skate ramp near the front of the park. No matter how curious his mind was he wanted to congratulate his best friend and of course, fill this chance to flirt with him aimlessly.
However, for our fiery chum buddy Axel; he never had the chance or gull to even approach Roxas. Roxas had already jumped down from the ramp and ran toward a person who wasn't Axel. This person didn't have red hair but blonde hair like Roxas. This individual happened to have breasts and not a flat chest like Axel. This person, with blonde hair and a chest, wasn't Axel and Axel was flabbergasted to say the least. By jealously or another emotion, no one really knows. So…
What is Axel to do?
