So, I'm doing the authors note first, and it's a little weird. I just wanted to say that I know my story is kinda slow, but it's supposed to be. Also I feel bad for making you guys wait a week for a 1k chapter so I'll work on the length and time. There's a lot I wanted to do with this chapter so I hope it doesn't feel rushed.

Fatefully yours

Chapter 7

Reasonable

At the end of the day Roxas couldn't really think of a great gift for Sora. In the end, he got his brother a movie and a few videogames. Hayner, for the most part, ignored him. But what bother the teen the most, Axel never texted back.

The blonde spun his pencil lightly around his fingers. He had his notebook placed in front of him, opened to the first page. Nothing was written except for the two word title at the top.

"Maybe I caught him at a bad time." Roxas wondered aloud.

Shaking his blonde spikes, he told himself that he didn't care. The almost inaudible knock at his door didn't surprise him. Sora, as much as he teased and annoyed Roxas, really liked their talks at night. Not bothering to close his notebook, there was nothing in it anyways, the blonde muttered a simple "come in".

"Roxas can you believe spring break is over so soon? Only one more day left of freedom." Sora whinned, shoving the door as far opeen as it would possibly go. The brunette scrambled onto Roxas' bed and pulled his knees up to his chest.

"Summer will come soon."

"Awe, but that's a month away."

"A little less than a month." For some reason their school had pushed spring break back really far this year. If it had gone any further it would have been a part if summer. "Besides this year is our last, be happy. I hear people wish that they could go back to high school after graduating."

"Yeah, but there will be college. Oh! Riku and I are gunna be roommates. We're gunna get an apartment, if there's three rooms you can live with us!"

Roxas gagged at the thought. Living status: permanent third wheel. "Really? And what college did you apply to?"

"Riku and I both applied to the local one. Riku as been saving for a while and I'll get a job soon. And if you live with us mom won't have to worry."

Roxas smiled at him. Although Sora didn't seem to notice, it was a guilty one. How could he tell his brother that he was going out of state. It was one of the very few things he kept from him. He had gotten his acceptances letter. The blonde had already sat down with his parents and had a long talk about it the year before, when he applied. A first they argued, but after hearing his reasonable plea, they eventually agreed. Of coarse they didn't think he would get accepted. His mother cried for days when she saw the letter. After all she should have know, Roxas was a smart boy.

"I think mom will worry no matter where we go." Roxas said lazily.

"You don't say." Sora said with a sly smile.

Sunday seemed rushed. Half dozing, Roxas felt like he missed the whole day. He did manage to get Sora's presents wrapped while Riku was over. But he really couldn't recall anything other than sitting in his room that night talking to his brother. Well, somehow he managed to work on his story, with almost no results. He had written one line.

Monday morning Roxas wope up to the the sound of Sora's blaring alarm. He could barely hear hi own thoughts over the incoherent shrilles of some song. Was that Natasha Bending field? He got up quickly, grabbing his school uniform, and racing for his and Sora's shared bathroom. He had to get there fast or he would have to wait forever, Sora was always one to move slow in the mornings.

Their mother stood in the kitchen, hands on her hips food on the table. She moved to take off her apron as Roxas entered. She offered him toast, with he gladly took. Sora came down a few minutes after Roxas and smiled. They eat in silence like every morning. She wished them each a good day as they left then went about cleaning the house.

Riku waited outside for the twins in his car. Shades pulled down over his eyes making him look like he was asleep, although it was impossible with how loud his music was blasting. Sora jumped into the front and turned the volume down as Roxas climbed in behind him. The brunette pouted at the song he didn't really like. Roxas on the other hand do like the band a lot.

Drive, a thousand miles, it doesn't seem that far

What you leave behind makes you who you are

Roxas couldn't help but to frown. Riku really did know how to pick songs with one line that could make you feel like crap. what was he leaving behind, his family, his brother. Could he really make it without them?

Drive, just drive

Roll the windows down and fell alive

All night, all right

I'll drive until the morning light (*)

Friday. The twins' birthday. Six days since he heard from Axel. One hour until the final bell rang, signalling they could leave. Four hours until their small party. This year Roxas "forgot" to invite Hayner. Five hours until Sora proved he had the best present.

Time was moving slowly for Roxas. What was the point of last period studyhall? Nobody studied, they just slept or stared the clock down, like the blonde was doing. Whatever happened to ERLA? Nooo, his school was to uncool to do that. Then again, if they did have it, he would be walking to school every morning alone. Leaving those thoughts behind, he chanced another glance at the clock. Fourty-five more minutes.

Roxas dug his notebook out of his bag. Hunching over he eyed the only line he had written. Now that he stated at it enough, it looked like a better end of the story line.

He stayed in his trance like thought until the bell over head rung loudly snapping him back into the real world. Gathering his things the blonde headed for Riku's car where he waited for Five minutes for the older teen and longer for his brother.

Two hours till their party, three hours till the surprise, a little over a week since Sora had texted Axel.

Roxas had confided in his older twin that he hadn't heard back from Axel. He asked if he should try again or leave their friendship as a lost cause. Sora smiled and told I'm to try again later. He waited for him to leave the room thinking; this is something an older brother can handle. He excused himself from Riku to get his phone. Ah, sometimes it was a good thing to have a sneaky brother.

'Axel, hello! Are you ignoring my Roxie?'

Only a few seconds had passed before his phone had buzzed. 'No, I've been texting him all week. But he's been weird.'

'Hmm, are you sure, he doesn't seem to be getting anything n his phone. Well when you find out what's wrong text him happy birthday.'

The brunette plugged his phone into the charged and left the room. He didn't need to wait for a simple "OK". Later he would read his phone.

Party in progress, a few minutes until presents.

"I hope you boys are enjoying your party. Sorry Van and Ven couldn't make it this year, exams are coming up for them." Their father said smiling at them. "Soon you'll graduate and go your separate ways." Sora didn't fully understand, Roxas had never gotten around to telling him. But that must have been their dads way of wishing them food luck. Their mom fawned over the fact that not only did she have one, but both sons graduating early.

"Roxie!" Sora bounced over, this silver haired friend not far behind. "I wanna give you my present."

Roxas looked at his empty hands.

It's kinda a grad present too. Just remember i'm the best brother ever."

"What is it?"

"Well, remember how you always say you want to get out of this small town. You, Riku, and I, we're all going to the U.K"

Roxas' jaw dropped, his eyes widened. "WHAT?!"

I will cross oceans, tundras, deserts, I'll drive straight into the light, or plung deep into the darkness, anything I must because I'm fatefully yours.

Okay sorry to those who had to wait for me to update. Honesty I was reading other fics to get inspired. I hate this chapter. To rushed. The next one may seem like that too, only I am writing out each day for Axel. Longest chapter ^-^

(*) it's called Drive by Hawthorne Heights, from the album Skeletons(2010). It's one of my favorite songs of theirs, but I like the whole album.

Next, thanks to Axure Bee, who seems to be the only person out there willing to give me feedback. Your the best!

Also, the little note at the end, yup I best you guys have already guessed, it was Roxas' story. Since my original fatefully yours was not a fan fiction, I'll have Roxas be writing it.

Further more, yes I know it's highly unlikely to graduate like Sora and Roxas, but it's possible. I had to people in my class like that. They were both on the honor role and super awesome people. So lets roll with that so I don't gave to admit I messed up my story.

lastly, I don't own KH. If I did, Zexion and Demyx would both be alive and madly in love. I also don't own Hawthorne Heights, but man I wish I did.

Reviews, comments, complaints, flames? Except for that one asshole that tells people that their stupid for writing fan fiction or using a song. I read better than you can dream of dude, I'm sure I've got the rules down. Spelling mistakes, I type in a tablet. You try typing a story in auto correct. And those of you who do, understand my pain.
