The day began like any other, only this time, everyone was back from their 'short break'. After dishes, and bathrooms, Thixlium was sent off to Roxas's room by Xemnas. So when I made it to Roxas's marked door and knocked gently. The door opened with a slight creak, only this time it opened all the way, showing the smile that lay across his face. "Hello, Thixlium," he said calmly, "I really haven't got much to do, so, why don't we go sit on the clock tower in Twilight Town?"
I nodded, "What makes you think I'd disagree."
He shrugged, opening a portal, swimming and oozing with darkness, and he walked into it, I followed. On the other side I found myself beside Roxas, who had two salty-sweet ice creams in his hands, on top of Twilight Town's clock tower. It was a common hang-out spot for many people, including Roxas. "So," I said taking the ice cream her offered me and sat down with my feet hanging down next to him, "Why aren't you wi—"
"Don't say his name!" He shouted his hand that held his ice cream was shaking as if with anger.
"Um . . . Okay, but why?"
"He's being stupidly, stupid!"
"Isn't he normally stupidly, stupid?"
"More so this time, now can we stop talking about this?"
"Alright . . ."
My gaze that once lingered on Roxas's anger filled face had moved to the golden sun slowly sinking up ahead. Maybe, Axel really hurt Roxas's non-existent feelings . . . It is worth investigating later. "Ugh," I said blinking my eyes repeatedly, "Sun-tanning your corneas is not a good thing."
Roxas looked at me and smiled, saying, "Helps if you look past the sun"
"Nya~" I said curtly, placing the stick from the ice cream in my mouth securely and laid back, gazing up at the pink and orange sky, wrapping around each other like a gigantic canvas.
Roxas tapped my leg, as if to check if I was still there, then said "Have you seen what Xaldin wears when he goes to bed?" the corners of his mouth twitching as if about to explode with laughter.
I thought for a moment, I was quite curious about Xaldin, we never do much together so it's kinda weird. "No, I haven't, I do I want to know?" I answered knowing full well that Roxas would tell me anyways.
"He wears a red lacy thong!" He busted out in laughter.
Me myself share a few giggles, then said "How would you know?"
The laughing ceased as if it never was there, not that it actually was there considering it was nonexistent. "It involves Axel." He said quietly
"Oh," I said looking at my hand awkwardly, "Sorry, didn't know."
"Its fine" He said smiling at me.
The corners of my mouth twitched slightly, I wasn't used to smiling, not yet anyways. Without happiness I've found no reason to smile, I wonder how everyone else does it here. I mean like really, you have to sense some sort of affection between Roxsu and Axulu even if they disagree sometimes, just whatever.
Time was ticking by slowly below them, but up here, it's as if time just froze, the clouds in the perfect position, the sun reflecting the lights so beautifully, it was magnificent. "This makes me think of . . ." I slapped a hand to my mouth, did I just say that out loud? Roxas's response was answer enough.
"Makes you think of what? Or who?"
"It's nothing!" I said nervously feeling my face flush a non-existing red.
"Orlly?" He pestered
"Oh~ . . . It's nothing!" I turned my head around and covered it with my face, "I didn't mean to say that out loud" I said sounding muffled from my hands.
"It's alright I won't bother you about it"
I moved my hands away from my face, his friendly, smiling face glowing in the sunlight, "I trust that you won't tell anyone? Or no one at that?"
"Promise"
I nodded, trusting him . . . non-existent trust. A warm air swept over us as the sounds of trains coming and going fill the air, nothing could be and more perfect than this. It was perfect, until I remembered I had to get to Larxene before she decides to zap me.
