After an x-ray and some other tests, the doctors told me that although my ankle wasn't broken, it was severely sprained. Axel had to carry me back to Reno's car, who drove me to Sora's.

"Thank goodness you're alright! You had me so worried!" Sora held me after Axel laid me down on the couch.

"Sorry," I adjusted the pillow behind me, trying to get comfortable.

"Here," Axel sat me up, then rested himself against the couch so I could use his chest as a pillow.

"Thanks," I blushed and snuggled against him. He put an arm around me as I curled into his body.

"Aww, look at them," Reno smirked as the doorbell rang.

"Is he ok?" Demyx walked in and I felt so embarrassed.

"How many people did you call?" I asked Axel. He shrugged.

"Just a few."

"Axel, I sprained my ankle, I didn't die!"

"You were hurt, it's all the same to me." Axel combed my hair and I blushed again.

"How you feeling?" Demyx asked, talking to me really slowly.

"Dem, he sprained his ankle, he didn't have a concussion." Reno rolled his eyes and Demyx ignored him.

"I'm fine Demyx, thanks." I said when there was another knock at the door.

"Hey kid, you alright?" Some tall, broad, intimidating man asked me. He had a shaved head and wore dark sunglasses and I had never seen him before.

"Rox, this is Rude, Reno's boyfriend." Axel introduced him and I told him that I was alright.

"Rude, hey baby." Reno waltzed up to his boyfriend and lazily threw his arms around him.

"Hey Reno. Did you hurt him?" Rude asked and Reno laughed.

"Nah, he tripped. Reno chuckled before he continued. "He took one for the team so that a little boy wouldn't fall."

"Is that so?" Rude asked, finally taking off his sunglasses as he took a seat in a chair that Riku offered to him.

"Yeah, the kid's a natural hero." Reno sat on his boyfriends lap as Riku brought out another chair from his dining room to sit on.

"Come on Sora, let him breathe." Riku said as Sora hovered over me to make sure I was ok, since I was too tired to do or say much.

"Fine." Sora said sadly as he plopped himself on Riku.

"Xiggy is on his way." Demyx checked his phone and I curled closer to Axel.

"Really, I'm ok." I blinked slowly as Axel smiled sadly down at me.

"I was just so scared. I couldn't help but call people." Axel's pathetic smile turned real as I smiled back.

"Thanks, for caring." I closed my eyes and I felt him exhale deeply as I snuggled against his warm body.

"Don't they just look so cute?" Reno said and Axel cleared his throat. We're still not together, and I didn't know if he actually wanted me back or not, so I thought it would be best to stay quiet, even as Sora spoke.

"Roxas always looks most peaceful when Axel's holding him."

At that, I couldn't help but blush.

"Awww, Roxas is blushing!" Demyx squealed and I turned an even deeper red as I squeezed Axel's middle.

"Alright you guys, give him a break." Axel fingered my hair as I relaxed into a smile.

"I'm going to go to the store to get some coffee. Axe, want to come?" Riku stood up and Axel gently lifted me off of him before he set me on the couch by myself.

"I'll be back." He rubbed my shoulder and left with Riku.

"You know, I think I could go for some desert. What do you say Rude?" Reno stood up and Rude got up as well. "We'll be back with a cake or something." Reno said as the two left and I looked at Sora and Demyx.

"I have to go clean the bathroom before everyone comes back. Demyx, can you watch Roxas?" Sora asked and Demyx nodded.

"No problem."

It was quiet at first, but then Demyx scooted over to me and I gulped.

"Look Roxas, I just want to apologize that I threatened you way back when. I guess I just wanted to make sure that Axel didn't get hurt. I can see that this is real, and that you do care, but I just didn't want him to go through all that drama shit again. Can you understand?" Demyx's pure blue eyes seemed so genuine and sincere, I nodded easily.

"I know."

"Good. And don't worry, Axel still loves you, k?" Demyx smiled at me and I nodded slowly.

"I love him too."

"I can tell. He's still hurt by what happened, and he's trying to get over it, but some wounds take time and lots of it to heal. But if you give him that time and give him the love he deserves, I'm sure you two can make it work and make it last."

"Thanks Dem." I said, starting to feel the last of the pain medication wear off as Sora came back to the living room.

"All done. Whew, I'm tired." Sora sat down as Demyx stood up to answer the door since his boyfriend was standing on the other side.

"Hey Roxy, how you feeling?" Xigbar walked up to me and I shrugged.

"I'm ok."

"Good to hear. Hope you feel better soon." I could tell that Xigbar never liked me, and to be honest I never liked him, but at least now he was trying to be civil, even if only for Demyx's sake.

"I love you Xiggy." Demyx kissed his boyfriend hello as the two sat in a loveseat.

"We're back." Riku opened the door as Axel brought in the coffee and began passing it around.

"Where's Reno?" Axel asked.

"He went with Rude to get some desert. They should be back soon." Sora explained while Axel lifted me up only to place me in his lap again. Sora helped him elevate my foot as I put my head on Axel's shoulders.

Within the next few minutes, Reno and Rude made it back and started cutting up the chocolate cake they bought, passing around slices for all of us.

"What kind of coffee is that?" I asked Axel while everyone else was talking.

"Carmel machiotto, why?"

"Can I have some?" I liked my lips, thirsty.

"I'm sorry Roxy, but the doctor said no caffeine with your pain meds." Axel frowned at me and I whined.

"But it smells so good." I started to whimper as he put his coffee down and held me tighter.

"I wish I could share it with you."

"You could kiss him and let him taste it." Reno coughed loudly and I blushed.

"Is that what you want Roxas? Do you want to taste it?" Axel took another sip as I nodded desperately.

"Come here." He whispered and helped me sit up as he put his lips against mine. I inhaled deep, my heart racing, feeling as if we were kissing for the very first time. His hands were high up on my sides as he pushed his tongue into my mouth and allowed mine to go in his so I could get a taste of that caramel.

"Awww, look how adorable!" Demyx said and I pulled away, quickly burying my face in Axel's neck.

"Demyx, you made him shy!" Reno laughed and Sora giggled.

"Aww, don't be shy Roxas."

"Rox? You ok?" Axel rubbed his hand up and down my back as I sniffled. "Roxas?" Axel pushed me away when he heard my sniffles and I wiped my eyes.

"What's wrong?" Riku asked and I let out a pathetic chuckle.

"I just missed your kisses." I bit my lip as I put my head back on Axel's chest.

"You know Axe, I think he wants you to kiss him again." Reno smirked and Axel bore a small smile.

"Is that what you want Roxas? A kiss?" Axel teased me by the way his fingers tickled my sides in the small circles he rotated them.

"Yeah. I want you to love me again." I said and Axel sighed. Shit. Did I cross the line again?

"Roxas, lets wait till you're not on pain meds, ok?" Axel smiled poorly as I frowned.

"Kay."

"Shh, don't worry, we'll talk soon." Axel kissed my temple and I smiled again, happy to feel his lips against my skin.

"I love you Axe." I yawned, getting tired after Sora made me take more pain medication.

"Roxas, you should probably get some sleep." Riku said, probably not used to all the company in his small apartment.

"Yeah, good idea." I said, sitting up, much against my will to leave the warmth of Axel's body.

"Get better soon!" Demyx said on behalf of himself and his boyfriend before leaving.

"We'll stop by soon, if that's alright." Reno offered and when Riku nodded, he and Rude left.

"Goodnight Roxas. Get some rest, and I'll be back after work tomorrow." Axel stood up, carried me to the bed Riku had always offered me even as I slept on the couch, and tucked me in.

"Nighty night." I smiled like a dumb idiot way to high on my pills.

"Nighty night." Axel kissed me goodnight on the cheek as he started to leave.

"Wait!" I screamed and he turned around quickly.

"What? What is it?" He asked in a panic.

"I want my Axel!" I started to tear up and he smiled.

"I have to work baby."

"No, my Axel pillow!" I banged my fist on the mattress as he stood confused.

"Huh?"

"MY Axel pillow!" I shouted, again, on way too many pain killers, even though it did help with the pain.

"He means this." Sora came in, obviously hearing my shouts, and handed Axel my red pillow.

"This is his Axel pillow?" Axel asked.

"It's red." Sora shrugged before he left and Axel walked back to me and handed it to me.

"Better?" Axel asked and I nodded, taking my pillow and squeezing it without mercy in my arms.

"I love my Axel pillow." I turned on my side, still holding onto it with my life.

"Goodnight Roxy." Axel turned off my bedroom light as I drifted off to sleep
