In any normal situation when going somewhere with your office co-workers, it would be an awkward situation and you normally drag along that friend or girlfriend/boyfriend to come with you so you don't die of boredom and disintegrate because of the intense awkward. But my situation is not normal. It hasn't been since I started working here. So I knew upon finding out about this trip, It was either gonna be some freaky shit or the best thing in the world..
It came up randomly about a week ago. We had reached our high for active clients with protective plans. Which basically meant, we were actually doing our jobs. *Cough* For once *Cough* Anyways, the reward for not screwing up like we normally do was a "Mystical Hot Springs Trip" Well as the flyer put it anyways.
Now being the Otaku I am there was one thing I thought of as soon as I heard about this trip. Fan Service. Lots of it. I had been so spaced out thinking about the trip that I had been barely listening to Zero as he was announcing the thing. We were having a mid-day office meeting and my mind was going from Samurai's to that awkward "Get Backers" episode. Hoping that it wouldn't be like that. Suddenly I heard someone say my name and I looked up slightly confused.
When I looked around everyone started laughing at me.
"See, that's what you don't do." Zero said pointing me out. I felt my face get a little red. I guessed they noticed I wasn't paying attention.
"Rock, I-I-I didn't know you were like that." Roll said with a slight blush looking away from me. Now I was concerned. I heard Axl laugh from across the room.
"So Rock is a breast kind of guy." Axl said instigating, instigating what, I had no clue But it made me feel some kind of way.
"W-What are you guys talking about?!" I said indignantly.
"Dude during Zero's whole speech you were staring at Roll's chest." X said nudging me. I got embarassed...I didn't think I was staring at any body. I kind of felt bad for making Roll uncomfortable.
"I tried to get your attention but your eyes just stayed over there man." Zero said smirking at me.
"I-I wasn't..." I tried to start. Everyone laughed once more.
"Nah, it's okay we believe you." X said with a slight laugh.
"Y-Yeah I'm sure you were just spaced out." Roll said with a nervous laugh.
"Your soul is too pure to gawk at a beautiful woman like that." Axl said from the other side of the room putting a poptart in his mouth. Where'd he get that pop tart from?...I want one.
"Aww well thank you Axl." Roll said with a smile. Axl nodded at her with a grin.
"Pffft. What do you mean?" I said feeling like he just downgraded my manliness. I totally look at girls all the time. Pshhh...obviously...not. Who am I fooling? I knew I wasn't a risk taker. Normally when I like someone I feel bad about stealing a sinful glance. But I sure as hell wasn't gonna let Axl know that.
"Well Rock in the about...lets see in the good, 4 months that I've known you, I've never seen you flirt with any person ...like ever. Not even that cute girl at that ice cream shop." Axl said with a smug face. He was right and I was feeling some type of way about it.
"W-Well it's because...I'm...just because I'm not a creeper like you doesn't mean I don't, flirt with girls...gosh, get off me. You don't know me, You don't know what I been though." I said turning away indignantly from Axl.
"Aww look! He's all red." X said with gleeful laughter. Zero shook his head. Alia and Kalinka and Bass at this point were having their own conversation about something at this point. Iris wasn't here that day.
"He's red cause he totally knows I'm right." Axl said with a smirk finishing that pop tart. Damn that pop tart looked delicious...that son of a bitch didn't share.
"You guys are some haters." I said with a fake sniffle still turned away from everyone.
"Well hey Rock! Since we're all going to this hot springs thing, there should be some hot girls there." Zero said with a shrug halfway not caring. I turned around.
"Yeah don't look so down. I can give you advice and stuff." X said with a smile. I wondered what kind of advice he'd give me seeing as how he's engaged to a dude. Alright X I see you.
"How long is this trip for anyways?" Axl asked with a yawn.
"All weekend why?" Zero responded.
"Well see Cinnamon called me up and I was totally..." Axl started before X cut him off.
"Before you finish this story Axl, that girl is totally bad news. How many times are you gonna get back together with her." X said cutting in.
"Well you see my Axl body has needs and..." Axl started.
"Who's Cinnamon?" I asked suddenly. For some reason I really wanted to know. She had a bizarre name, she had some significance to Axl and...for some reason hearing her name just made me alarmed.
"Oh she's..." Axl started turning to me but before Axl could, much like X had, Zero cut off Axl pushing his head out-of-the-way.
"She's this smoking hot bombshell, that Axl has constant off and on relationships with. She's slowly but surely ruining his life." Zero said as if it was in his character bio. X then continued. Axl sighed.
"She only comes around when she wants the D. And she doesn't really care about him but...Axl cares about her alot. Like alot."
"Oh yep...just go and tell my love life to the world." Axl said leaning back into his chair.
"The world being Rock? Yeah...anyways...it's not a love life. Just a sex life. It's not healthy." Zero said with a matter of fact.
"And you guys are the supportive friends telling him about her?" I said slightly grasping the situation.
"Yeah pretty much. If she ever hurt him. I'd go and get that bitch." Zero said with a serious face. Which made me jump out of my skin.
"It's not like I'm in love with her or anything." Axl said muttering slightly irritated.
"Don't listen to him Rock. You should see this kid's face when she enters a room."
"Yeah I don't like that tater-thot." X said suddenly. We all looked at X suddenly and all conversations paused. Did he really just say what I thought he just said.
"X ,what?" Zero said suddenly.
"Erm...did I say something wrong." X said with a blinking thing.
"I need to talk to you..." Zero said dragging X out of the room. No one decided to speak about it. Just pretend it didn't happen.
And that women and gentlemen was how X lost all credibility as a smack talker. On another note once they were gone I looked over at Axl and he got back on his computer continuing "Out of this world" pressing start. I sat on the side of his cubicle.
"So this girl..." I started.
"You probably won't meet her." Axl said with certainty. I wanted to change the subject...but I had the strange feeling in the pit of my stomach ever since she came up...Axl had someone he cared about...and that he had...had...sex with...it bothered me at that point I didn't really know why. I knew that he probably wouldn't go on that hot springs trip. I had to say something. I knew I was being a cock block ass mother fucker but I didn't care because lets face it, deep down, I'm stubborn. Suddenly a piece of information suddenly slipped out of my mouth.
"So...I heard they've got this killer arcade at the Mystic Hot Springs place." I said suddenly. Axl looked up interested.
"Are you serious man?" Axl said setting down the mouse.
"They've got Street Fighter vs Marvel Heroes, and Mortal Kombat, and even Strider." I said with certainty. I had looked up the list at the beginning of the speech.
"WHAT!" Axl yelled rising from his cubicle. I heard a sigh from the other side of the room. It was Alia.
"I'm on the damn phone AXL!" She yelled back. Axl sat back down a little sad.
"Well it looks like I'm going on the trip." Axl said leaning back into his chair with a smirk. I laughed.
"Fan-tastic." I said delivering my frank west quote with a smile and I walked away. That was that. Strangely enough through out my whole time knowing Axl I never anticipated that he would have someone that he you know...like...did stuff with.
And every time I thought about it my stomach tightened. I knew that this had to be an effect of my awkward dude crush. In the end I just convinced myself that it was because I thought that Axl having a lady friend would get in our shenanigans video game time. Which sorta made no sense. That was when I realised that I was being a jealous Jennifer. Because I was a fruit. I was a fruit. I wasn't a fruit. No Rock, you're a fruit.
The fruitiest of fruits. The fruits that try and still be a vegetable even though their clearly a fruit. I was a tomato.
I knew this and it was in the back of my mind because lets face it. No one wants to admit that they're attracted to a random friend that they have, that's the same gender and probably won't ever like you back. I tried to push it farther and further back into my mind but, Axl was always around and he was always so close...and I felt like...a fucking creeper. Who was trying to deny to their very death that they didn't think that someone was attractive.
It wasn't til after the trip that I decided to forget about it and keep going.
The day of the trip we met in front of the train station and I had all my stuff. I remember we were waiting for Alia and Bass to get there and it was about 34 minutes before we had to leave. I was playing on my really old Neo Geo Color, while hearing Zero and Axl talk about how X keeps flipping his scarf for dramatic effect and how it just needs to stop.
So while they're over here having an intervention, I was dying over and over on the same boss. I was playing art of fighting and failing miserably. I couldn't get past King. Don't judge me. It was just something I could never get past easily. I'm pretty sure everyone has bosses like this. For some people it's stereotypical sephiroth, or even Jun Kazama from Tekken Tag 2, Well maybe on the higher difficulties. I was focused on this when I heard someone address me.
"Dude how many times are you gonna lose?" I heard Axl say to me. I look up to see him standing closer than I thought he'd be. I looked back down to my screen and paused it.
"Probably 80 more. Wanna try?" I said handing the system over to Axl.
"Pssshh yeah! It's been years but I used to cream her." Axl said grabbing the system confidently.
"Cream who?" Zero chiming in suddenly.
"You when you were in that drunken stupor in college." Axl said with a smirk, still focused on the screen. Zero shuttered a bit as if having a college flashback.
"Don't make jokes like that please." Zero said a little uneasy. I was confused at that point.
"Who's joking Zoey?" Axl said with a snicker. Zero looked horrified.
"Alright Alexis." Zero said regaining his smugness.
"OMG, NOT IN FRONT OF ROCK,HE STILL THINKS I'M COOL." Axl said suddenly getting flustered. X and I looked at each other slightly confused.
"Alexis though?" I said with laughter.
"Get off me, It was freshmen year in college and it came with $200 dollars." Axl said indifferently. Suddenly I heard a "OH!" from X.
"I remember that now. See Rock there was this party and basically these two idiots made a bet when they were drunk, that they could go around campus as girls and get a boyfriend in one week. If they lost then they'd get tied up and put into the R.A's dorm wearing langerie, but if they won they'd get $200." X explained to me with some interesting hand jesters.
"So what happened in the end?" I asked still trying to picture them as girls.
"Well Zero had it easy because well we were dating back then. The guy who they were making the bet with didn't actually know that, As for Axl, there was this really creepy nerdy chubby guy, who was a ginger." X said putting emphasis on ginger.
"There's nothing wrong with gingers, but yeah this guy was fugly. Pimples everywhere. Eww..." Axl shuttered moving a little bit.
"So did you ya know...kiss him?" I asked him suddenly. Axl made a "You got me alllll the way messed up" face.
"Pffft no! I made the whole pillow pants and listerfiend statement." Axl said with a laugh.
"What's that?" I asked.
"So like you know when like christian parents tell their kids not to engage in sexual activities, until they're 21 or married?" Zero asked me.
"Yeah why?" I asked.
"Well there's this legend where when a little girl is born, god places an imaginary evil guardian called pillow pants in her vagina that'll basically eat your dick off if you try to take her virginity." Zero said with a smile. I looked horrified.
"I'm sorry but what the fuck is wrong with some christian parents." I said suddenly
"It's only the white people." Axl stated still having his eyes on the screen.
"Racist bassist." I replied. Axl snickered.
"Then there's Lister Fiend. The kiss counterpart, if you kiss too early Listerfiend will bite off your tongue." X said with a giggle.
"Please tell me none of you had these parents, how do you guys know about this?" I asked suddenly. Axl answered me.
"Oh I dated this girl back in high school, who was reaaally hot. I tried to get to second base with her, then she told me that and well...the rest is history." Axl said still clicking away at the screen.
"I feel bad for her." I said.
"We thought it was hilarious when he told us that's what happened." Zero said. X nodded.
"Yeah we wondered why he broke up with her so quick, he literally went from being "Obsessed with her" to "She's not a person"." X said.
"But isn't that horrible? Breaking up with a girl because you can't get any?" I asked suddenly.
"Yeah I guess it was...but I thought about it on a large-scale, like what if her family was batshit crazy as well? Like this girl firmly believed that Pillow pants existed and was on the verge of tears when she told me. What if I had to deal with that later? No hot girl is worth that, I can find another." Axl said as he was still focusing on the screen.
"You were nice about it right?" I asked. Axl nodded then suddenly exclaimed "Yes~!"
"Oh yeah totally. She still cried though and I felt like a dick for a while." Axl said giving me back my neo geo color, with king defeated. I was grateful.
"Where do you think she is now?" X asked suddenly.
"Well she's past 21 now so...probably getting super laid somewhere." Zero said in deep thought.
"I think she's probably married, while getting super laid." Axl said with a shrug.
"You guys probably have a million stories huh?" I asked suddenly.
"Yep totally stick around long enough and you might hear some of them twice." Axl said with a thumbs up.
By then the train had arrived and we dispersed to get all of our bags and stuff together. I didn't have a whole lot of stuff. Just everything that I needed. My special blanket, Apollo Justice plush,...how old am I again? Anyways during the train ride I sat next to Axl. We were talking about the new SSB4 that was going to come out, the roster was crazy, the craziest being the Wii fit trainer, but anyways, Zero and X were in front of us, Bass and Dynamo and some other people were on the side of us. Alia and Roll and Kalinka were in back of us talking about girl stuff. Then there was Sigma sitting all up in the front by himself.
We weren't the only people on this trian. There was some old people, this awkward couple that wouldn't stop making out. They were ugly too. Now, I'm not really a judgemental person. But god damn, they were ugly. Like how does that level of ugly even happen.
"Goddamn those people diagonal from us are ugly." Axl said out loud suddenly. I looked over at him.
"Can you read my mind or something?" I asked.
"Totally, your face says it all." Axl said with a signature smirk.
"Ermm." I couldn't really respond.
"Now your embarrassed because I can see inside your pure innocent mind." Axl says.
"W-What!" I say. It was the only thing I could think of as a response.
"That was the only thing you could think of as a response." Axl said with slight laughter.
"Alright I'm officially creeped out." I said suddenly.
"Did I hear right? Did Rock finally figure out how much of a creeper Axl is?" Roll asked from the back of us.
"Me a creeper?! Please." Axl said with sarcasm. I laughed.
"You're a pedo bear level creeper." Roll said with a roll of her eyes. Hah Roll rolled her eyes...oh the puns...
"I do not prey on young children, Roll, gosh." Axl said with a fake indignant tone.
"Run, Rock, while you still can." Roll said touching my shoulder and looking me in the eye. Out of nowhere Axl changed the subject.
"So are Zero and X sleeping?" Axl asked suddenly. I got up and looked in front of us and they were. I nodded back.
"Out cold." I responded.
"Beautiful." Axl said with an evil grin. He got up and walked to the seat in front of us. I knew some shenanigans was going to happen at any moment. I just had to see it. Axl moved to the front, moved X carefully off of Zero and leaned him on the window seal. After that he picked Zero up from the seat, super gently with no sounds. He walked up to the front with Zero bridal style, how he managed to do it was a mircle. He stopped at Sigmas seat. Sigma was sleeping and Axl set Zero on Sigma's lap and wrapped Zero's arm around Sigma. Then he tiptoed back to his seat, earning lots of strange looks from the people sitting around.
He down next to me again with an accomplished look that just made him seem like a little kid.
"You do realise you've just started world war 3 right?" I stated. Axl just laughed.
"Gotta start the hot springs trip off right." Axl said with a small smile.
"I can't wait to see this." I said suddenly.
When the train stopped and it was time to get off, X woke up first and turned around and asked where Zero went. He got up and looked around and found Zero on Sigma's lap sleeping really good. Suddenly we heard a yell.
"SIGMA!" X yelled. I jumped back in my seat knowing that shit was gonna get real.
"Sigma...why the hell am I sitting on your lap?" Zero said unamused. Then he turned around and looked at X.
"And X why the hell are you yelling." Zero said suddenly. X shrugged.
"Well you see it just seemed right..." X said innocently.
"Well obviously Axl moved me in an attempt to troll but he doesn't know that I put him in the same room as Sigma in the love suit just to counter troll because I knew this shit was coming." Zero said with a smirk looking directly at Axl, with a face that said "Take that"
"OMG NO YOU DIDN'T." Axl said rising up. Zero laughed.
"Yep I told the hotel that you were on your honey moon and would need some "extra things" sent to your room" Zero said with his game face on. Axl made a horrified face.
"How could you do this to me man..." Axl started looking slightly distraught. I don't blame him. Sigma scared the shit out of me and the thought of being surrounded by hearts and romance and Sigma was just disturbing. Poor Axl.
"No Axl, I'm actually lying, it's not Sigma...it gets better..." Zero said with a smile. Axl then looked paranoid as if he knew Zero's answer all ready.
"It's Rock. You're roomed with Rock in a love suit." Zero said with an evil grin. Axl dropped to his knees. I turned red. Why Zero why?
"You win this round...but mark my words Zero...you're gonna pay for this." Axl said pointing at Zero. Zero shrugged.
"Er...Axl, I just don't think it's that serious." I chimed in. Axl sighed.
"Why do you guys have such a problem with a romantic room?" Roll asked suddenly.
"Well actually...I don't have such a problem with it." Axl said. I shrugged. But on the inside I was freaking the hell out. I knew I had a man crush on Axl so why was this happening to me? Did Zero secretly know?! Is he getting me back for last Wednesday when I spray painted his hair. Probably. Although I pinned it on Bass to make it seem like he did it.
I looked at Zero with a suspicious face. Zero gave me a knowing look. I was then paranoid. But I got even more paranoid when X gave me one of his smile winks. I knew right then and there they were on to me. I'll have to kill them now...pfftt..lord knows I'd get beat up by Zero...maybe not X...actually I take that back. I was too into my thought when suddenly I felt a hand on my shoulder I looked over and it was Roll she smiled at me.
"Don't worry Rock. I'm sure Zero's just playing. I doubt there'll be "Extra things." Just a heart-shaped room and stuff." Roll said with a sure face.
"Bleh." I said with a droop. Roll laughed.
"Well if it's that serious you can just room with me, I'm by myself." Roll said. I blushed and then got all awkward. Roll just looked at me with squinted eyes.
"Err..nnooo I mean that..is okay...well because you're a woman and, I'm a man...and er...HOTSPRINGS AND NAKEDNESS, ROLL!" I exclaimed. Axl just laughed in the background, then just sorta dragged me away. My mind went blank for the next couple minutes as we started walking towards our hotel room it was then Axl spoke.
"So Rock, tell it to me straight, you got a crush on Roll?" Axl asked with a grin as we got to our door, it was heart-shaped but I had expected it. I sighed.
"No...it's just.." I started but then I started to think about the real reason that I said no. It was partly because rooming with Axl would be fun but the other part of it was, I was actually a little embarrassed of my body, I was really skinny, well not annerexic but you know what I mean, I'm sorta not comfortable with people seeing me and sure I wasn't going to be naked or anything but Roll would see my bare chest and I just wasn't about it. I guess it's sorta silly for someone like me to be self conscious but I've always been like this. Probably one of the reasons I've been alone for this long. I always feel like other people will judge me, criticize me. It happens every time I come out of my hole.
I open up to someone and suddenly they see me for who I really am, a shut in otaku, who has no goals, nothing special about him, no special talent, just basic. I was basic. I was one basic bitch. It hurt to think it but it was something I always knew. There wasn't much about me at all. My looks didn't help either, I was just some baby-faced big eyed spiky haired kid. Thinking about all this made me go silent and I could feel Axl's eyes examining my face. I didn't give him a proper answer. I looked up at Axl and he spoke suddenly after we were in our shaped room.
"Rock, you got quiet what's wrong yo?" Axl asked.
"It's just...I erm...how do I say this?" I asked myself out loud. Axl raised an eyebrow.
"Now you're talking to yourself that's a good sign." Axl said sarcastically. I sighed. But suddenly I got my thoughts together.
"I'm too awkward to share a room with Roll, It's not that I like her or anything it's just..." I trailed off.
"It's not that you're not comfortable with Roll, you're not comfortable with yourself. Rock it's all over your face." Axl said suddenly. He sat on the heart-shaped bed and started unpacking stuff. I was quiet for a second and then spoke.
"You don't know that." I said. Axl shook his head.
"Nah Rock, it's obvious you got low self-esteem, you put that together with the fact that you're not good women and you're a shut in and tada! You are not comfortable with yourself and why I may ask?" Axl asked looking up from his stuff
"I'm not really in the mood to have a heart to heart talk Axl" I said suddenly not wanting to face what he was saying. Even though I knew it was true.
"Why not doesn't the romantic setting help?" Axl said with a slight laugh pointing at the red and pink room. I laughed.
"Well...maybe." I said sitting down on the other side of the bed.
"Dude...no homo, you're a pretty dude. I don't know why you're so down on yourself, being a strange quiet otaku is pretty cool, not to mention having spiky hair. Plus better skinny then fat right?" Axl said with a grin.
"But I'm so basic and..."
"Rock, did you just call yourself a basic bitch? Dude you need a hug. You're not basic. Kalinka is, that's why I don't hang with her. But your pretty cool. Real talk man. Bring it in" Axl said and with that he gave me a bro hug. Just then X kicked in the door. We paranoidly looked over at X. Who had the most satisfied look on his face of his life.
"Dude what's up?" Axl said. X had stars in his eyes and he muttered something along the lines of "My ship!" We ignored it.
"Nothing I just came to check on you guys and to give you your arcade pass." X said.
"Yaaay! Thanks." Axl said getting up and grabbing it from X. So X looked around and then spoke.
"So why were you hugging Rock?" He asked all of a suddenly. Axl smirked.
"Why you jealous?you want a bro hug too?" Axl asked. X made a squint face.
"Pffft. maybe...but why the bro hug? Is the room having an effect on you guys?" X asked. I made a "pffft" noise.
"Nah Rock was just being a downer dan." Axl answered.
"Aww... Rock is too cute for that." X said with a look of sympathy. I sighed.
"Is it because we sorta look-alike that you say this?" I asked suddenly X laughed.
"Well yeah, cause I'm gorgeous and since you kinda look like me Rock, you should be gorgeous as well." X said patting my shoulder. Axl laughed suddenly and I sighed once more.
"X, I think you wear this look better." I said with a smile.
"No, no Rock-" X was about to start but then Axl cut him off.
"If you wanna think you're not attractive fine, but in my book you're pretty cute Rock so you need to get off yourself before I show you how you're attracti-wait what am I saying?" Axl said suddenly, and we all looked at him slightly confused. I don't think Axl knew what he was saying, X and I sure didn't but Axl looked flustered and he just suddenly walked out of the room, X and I made eye contact and then just sorta shrugged.
"So see ya Rock! Come play some drinking games with us later." X said. But then I stopped him.
"Wait! I don't drink." I said. X looked at me if I were suggesting world war 3.
"What?! madness, you're drinking tonight~! See ya Rock~!" X said leaving. I sighed. I just knew that this would be shenanigans, hopefully just maybe I wouldn't come out completely scarred like last time.
Shortly 5 minutes later Axl returned with a whole case of Arizona tea, and I just sorta stared at him as if commanding "Give me 6 of those." Axl nodded and gave me exactly 6. Soon after we found ourselves at the arcade and in front of the strider machine. I'm not going to lie upon seeing it, I squealed and almost jizzed, the lady at the front counter rolled her eyes at me and I gave her a "This is my destiny" face.
Long story short, after 6 dollars in quarters I beat the game and took 8 different pictures with the arcade machine, yep this was going on instagram later. Although most of my followers and random old dudes, which, isn't a good thing but whatever... *cough* I looked over across the arcade to see Axl killing some teenaged girl in dance dance revolution. They were playing side by side and she was non-stop giggling. I walked over a bit interested and started watching.
They were doing "Acceptable in 80s by Calvin Harris." I know because it was my jam back in 7th grade, don't judge me. I looked around and I wasn't the only one watching some teenagers who were as some call it "Scene kids" were gawking, so were some ladies in short dresses and high hills, they were all sorta neon it looked strange.
I noticed Axl was doing some extra stuff just to be cool and I could tell that the teens and the ladies watching were just eating it up. I snickered at that. Axl looked like he was having a whole bunch of fun though, like he was just spitting out charisma and he was on fire. Which he was, dude was over here killing it.
Finally the song ended and the game announced Player 2 being the winner, which was Axl, the tickets came out of the machine but Axl handed them to the teenage girl and she got happy and have him an almost tackle hug, Axl smoothly caught her and just put her back down and then spoke.
"Welp peace kiddo!" Axl said turning around to walk off when he stopped when he saw me right there, and then he spoke again.
"Oh hey Rock? Did you beat Strider dude?" Axl asked. I nodded.
"Yeah, It was amazing did you get to play street fighter or is the line still cray?" I asked. Axl sighed.
"Yeaaaah it's still cray, but I ran into these adorable scene kids and had to school them at dance dance revolution." Axl said with a shrug. I laughed.
"I saw you killing it over here and -" I got cut off when suddenly I saw one of the girls with short dresses and pumps walked up. I tapped Axl and pointed and he turned around and waved to her.
"Hello, ma'am you look interested in something? Is it me?" Axl asked suddenly with a grin. Too smooth Axl, too smooth. I was jelly and completely flustered to the point I couldn't even react to anything but just watch. But hey, I had nothing to be jelly over...obviously, and that's what made it sting more.
"Well... I saw you over there and I was wondering if... You'd hang with me and my girls for a while?" She said in almost a raspy sorta, no lie sexy voice. My eyes went big and I could feel my face heat up, and it wasn't even me she was talking to, I could only fathom what Axl was thinking. When I looked over at him and it was the exact opposite of the reaction I thought he would have and I gave him a face that said "Dude what are you doing?"
"Hmmm, it sounds hot but, naaah I'm good." Axl said contemplating and scratching his head.
"Seriously?" She looked surprised and Axl laughed.
"No I'm joking, hell yes." Axl said as he took her hand. She giggled like a school girl and Axl walked off with her joining the rest of the pretty girls he turned around and yelled to me.
"I'll be back in 3 hours Rock! Meet me at our room then!" Axl said giving a peace sign before he vanished. I watched him vanish into the crowd of beautiful skinny curved white girls and immediately I felt lonely. All that was left was me and the bright-colored arcade machines, sure there was tons of people around me on said machines but at that moment I felt like I was the only one in the room and Axl just walked out.
I mean anyone would've ditched their friend to go do something like that and it's not like I can't just go hang out with everyone else, so I don't know why I'm thinking like this. So whatever, now I wondered what I was going to go do for three hours.
I started walking back to my room when suddenly I run into Roll and Alia they wave happily before we got close, Alia had the first word.
"So where's Axl?" She asked. I made a small laugh upon remembering where he was.
"With a bunch of thirsty white chicks." I replied. Roll shook her head in disapproval.
"I hope he catches an STD, did he ditch you seem kinda like you're moping." Roll asked. I shook my head.
"I'm not moping or anything" I said putting on a fake smile and throwing out a thumbs up. Alia laughed and put her hand on my shoulder.
"It's fine Rock, you can mope in front of us. Tell us your woes over tea." Alia suggested. I shrugged.
"Sure why not." I replied. Roll laughed.
"We can roast Axl, too." Roll said with stars in her eyes. Alia giggled too.
"Let's write it all down and show everyone else later too."
"I'm sure X and Zero could come up with a better roast list for Axl." I said thinking about it.
"Oh god, they'd light him up. I'm calling them." Roll said pulling out her phone.
And in no time we were all in a cafe making hilarious insults up about Axl, and I gotta say all of them killed me. Zero's were the most horrible ones, Roll was on some hater stuff, X was trying to be nice about his jokes, but Alia was going in. I on the other hand couldn't make many, Axl was just too cool in my eyes.
"And tell me why his scar on his face looks like Scar's from Fullmetal Alchemist." Alia said suddenly, that got a laugh as well.
"What the hell kind of hair does Axl have really anyways?" Zero said taking a sip of green tea. Roll giggled. X sighed.
"Does it want to be Goku? Like what is his hair trying to accomplish." X said with a smile.
"I think his hair is trying to escape his body that's why it sticks out like that." Roll said.
"Probably so, he is a ginger." X said.
"That's why his pubes are orange." Zero said in an almost upset voice. We all looked at Zero for one second and his sipped his tea casually before bursting out into laughter.
"So...how exactly do you know that?" I asked Zero. He shook his head. X and Zero both responded at the same time.
"College." They responded. Oh jesus I could only imagine.
"That's why he's got split ends." Roll muttered. I laughed at that one.
"Have you guys ever seen Axl's stash?" X asked suddenly. I shook my head no.
"Long story short this guy has a huge stack of wierd and disturbing japanese fetish porn." Zero said bluntly. I wondered for a second where in Axl's apartment did he keep it. It was super messy in there so it could've been anywhere.
"I'm not surprised." Roll said. I laughed.
"That stuff, isn't that bad." I said speaking up.
"So Rock, you into that kind of stuff?" Alia said with a tease in her tone as she nudged me, my face went red.
"HEY! This is not a roast about me." I said indignantly. Everyone laughed.
"Alright we'll do something else then, what's the worst thing Axl has ever done to you." X said,then he continued "I'll go first."
"Umkay when I was in junior high Axl got the bright idea to write a love note to our MILF teacher and he signed my name and framed me for it. The whole thing got out of proportion she called my dad and made me apologise and swear not to be attracted to her ever again. I never lived it down, because everyone found out about it. The struggle was real." X said. Zero laughed after he was finished.
"Oh yeah I remember that, they called X the MILF lover. Made alot of dried up vagina jokes too. Poor X." Zero said contemplating it while he put his hand on X's shoulder.
"Pffffft. ahaaaaa" Roll exclaimed suddenly just weak with laughter. He laughter was conta
"So Zero, what was yours?" X asked. Zero thought for a second.
"That motherfucker snipped my hair one time back in 5th grade." Zero said as if he suddenly remembered and was still made about it. I laughed.
"You still mad Zero." I said with a smug face.
"Yeah man! That's my hair, the most precious thing in life." Zero said touching it. X looked at him and Zero spoke again.
"Errr...next to love...and stuff..." Zero said as if trying to take it back, X sighed.
"Well..for me it'd have to be the first day I started working, long story short, he ripped my favorite pencil skirt and made a huge tear to the point where the clients could see my underwear it was awful." Roll said as if it were the worst experience. I just want to know, how the hell did he manage to rip it, but I didn't want to be that guy to ask.
"I remember that, I ended up giving you an extra pair of skinnies I had, and we made a bunch of jokes about wearing the same pants size." X said with a laugh. Roll nodded.
"I still am grateful for that." Roll said. Then they passed on the torch to Alia.
"Well lets see...he purposely put porn pop ups on my computer after I cock blocked him and every time sigma or a client would come by they'd see it. It was awful." Alia said. Then she continued "What about you Rock?"
"Errr...well Axl's been pretty nice to me this whole time, nothing's happened." I said. Everyone stared at me as if I was irregular suddenly X had a smug look on his face.
"Is that so Rock." Then he nudged Zero and he looked back in forth as if making some connection. Then they both nodded at each other, Roll Alia and I were confused.
"You're lucky Rock, cause Axl can be a idiot sometimes." Roll said.
"But he's our loveable idiot. Even though he's ruined my life-like three times I really love him." X said.
"It's the truth, we have a picture of Axl in every room in our house." Zero said. I was going to test them on that later, next time I visited.
The conversation continued and we all split up back to our rooms to later in a few minutes meet at the hot springs to get some springs time in, When I got back to my room at exactly three hours Axl was sprawled across the heart bed as if almost in a trance with no clothes except heart boxers and new bandages that were on his back for what looked like small cuts and there were some on his neck and one on his face.
He was smiling to himself as if day dreaming, I was a little confused. I spoke.
"Did you just get back?" I asked.
"Yeaaaaaah~!" Axl said cheerfully.
"So errr...how was it." I didn't have to ask to already know Axl was in heaven and I honestly didn't want to ask because it sorta hurt to know.
"It was what heaven felt like." Axl looked like he had stars in his eyes. I didn't want to imagine what kind of things happened because by the second I was getting jelly. Super Jelly.
"So erm...err." I couldn't really look him in the eye as I kept imagining Axl doing sinful stuff with those girls. My face was getting red.
"So Rock is everyone about to go to the Hot Springs then?" Axl asked. I nodded.
"I'm gonna change into my stuff and go." I said going into the bathroom with my bathing suit and shutting the door. Suddenly I heard Axl knock on the door.
"Yes?" I answered.
"Rock have you ever avoided anything? Like try to make up excuses for yourself?" Axl asked suddenly. I didn't really know what he meant.
"Wait what?" I asked. I heard Axl walk away from the bathroom door.
"It's nothing I'm changing out here so unless you wanna see my package. Don't come out." Axl said.
"What if I wanna see it. I heard you have orange pubes." I said smugly.
"I...Zero told you that didn't he, that mother trucker." Axl said with a certain kind of laugh in his voice. I smiled to myself.
"So it's true then?" I laughed.
"Hey! My pubes are beautiful! Haters gonna hate." Axl said randomly. I was done putting on my shorts and I walked out of the bathroom and Axl was already done changing leaning on the bed with his towel and he looked at me and suddenly his eyes lit up. I was a bit confused.
"I love...your...swim trunks." He suddenly said in a serious tone. I looked down to see I had on my Sonic the Hedgehawk ones. I looked up and tried not to make eye contact.
"I special ordered it in my size...They're originally for small kids." I confessed as if to answer the question on Axl's mind, "where did I get them". Axl nodded.
"What site?" Axl asked.
"Play Asia." I answered grabbing my Iron man pull over towel so my nipples won't be towards the world. Axl observed.
"Ah yeah, I get most of my figurines from there, I didn't know they sold clothes too...amazing." Axl said in realization. Then he suddenly spoke looking at my pull over.
"Dude, why're you hiding those pink nipples." Axl said with a grin. I was admittedly creeped out a little bit. Why're you looking at my nipples yo?!
"Cause it's cold." I answered cool headed.
"Rock if you don't take that off, I'm going to assume you have secret boobs, and then court you, just like in those gender bend movies." Axl said in a sorta convincing voice.
"I just don't think I'd be the gender bending main character, I'd be the supporting friend. I'm too basic to be a main character." I said suddenly.
"Oh the irony." Axl muttered. I looked at him strange I felt as if somewhere in another universe a 4th wall was broken. The rest of our walk to the hot springs went pretty regular, a usual conversation between the two of us. I didn't bother to mention all the insults that we all came up with for Axl, instead I just looked at Axl wondering if he really did all those things to all those people. It was sorta funny in a way.
Pretty soon we were on our way and we descended to the hot springs area. It was beautiful. Long story short it was beautiful. Like water falls and pretty flowers and mist was everywhere, like I had no Idea that such a beautiful place even existed. Axl and I stared at it for a minute before we got in the water. Axl spoke.
"Rock, this place is soooo...Oh my god I need a samurai fight to happen here." Axl said suddenly turning to me.
"This is the type of place sempai notices you at." I said still marveled with the background. Axl laughed.
"Rock, is that old guy over there your sempai?" Axl said pointing at some old guy who gawking our way. I'm pretty sure I blushed and turned away from him.
"God I hope not...I think he's staring at your hair actually." I said looking once more.
"Oh really...weeeeellllll." Axl muttered before suddenly I felt a light push on my back and suddenly I was in the warm water. It felt like the best thing ever. This water felt like love, like the blood of jesus, like my dad's blueberry muffins, like X's hugs. Yeah let's go with that last one. Before I could yell at Axl he cannonballs in and water splashed everywhere. He rose up out of the water with a satisfied grin.
I saw Axl's hair wet with out all the spikes and it was pretty long, He moved the hair out of his face as he came up from the water and I could see his full scar mark. It was almost a perfect X. I had the urge to poke him right there but instead I just sorta stared. I didn't say anything until I saw X, Zero and Bass coming in the water.
X entered carefully and Zero walked right behind him, X tripped and Zero caught his hand before he fell first in, he looked up at Zero and smiled with a sort of embarrassed face and spoke. Dude yaoi fanservice right there, I just knew that some kind of fanservice would happen and here it is.
"Looks like you saved me again." He said. Zero just smiled. Suddenly Axl yelled from across the hot springs
"Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!" Axl said with a sarcastic grin. Zero just looked at him with a knowing grin.
"You'll be a hypocrite pretty soon with the way you're going Axl." Zero said with a face that said "I figured you out bro" I didn't know what was happening so I almost zone out until the noise picked up.
"YOU DON'T KNOW ME, OR MY STRUGGLE." Axl yelled indignantly and purposefully humorously. I laughed. Oh jesus. At that point I realized that there were other people in the hot spring and it was sorta funny they're just watching this scene play out in front of them.
"Axl, do you want to be alone? Maybe we should go Zero." X said teasingly. Axl flushed and turned away.
"I will have none of your shipping X." Axl said with an english accent turning away. Shipping? Shipping what?
"It's totally cannon, Axl." X said with a grin. Axl made a squint face at X.
"What's cannon? " I asked getting curious. X's face went blank then he spoke.
"Axl and his right hand." He answered.
"That's OTP." I answered. Zero nodded.
"Sooooo getting off of me for a minute...the girls side...is it across this wall?" Axl said looking at it curiously.
"You're not planning on being stereotypical and trying to look over are you?" Zero said with a less than amused tone of voice. Axl nodded,
"As an Otaku I must try this at least once, I've seen too many shows." Axl admitted. I put my hand on Axl shoulder and nodded.
"I'm with you." I said.
It was 5 minutes later when we actually got out of the water and walked over there and as soon as we did, I felt ultimate guilt.
"Axl, er...I don't think we should be doing this." I said. Axl shook his head.
"Travis Touchdown would do it." Axl said suddenly.
"But what if the girls find us looking." I asked nervously.
"Then we will have to be as pro as Mondo Zappa" Asl said confidently.
"But what if we get some Juliet Starling girls?"
"Then we run like hell like Garcia Hotspur." Axl answered.
"What if they catch us?" I asked.
"Then I'll take that beating like a man and enjoy it." Axl said. If only he knew that was honestly his future.
"What? No more Suda 51 characters?" I said with a small smile. Axl shrugged.
So with the most guts I've ever had in my life I followed Axl to the girls' side of the hot spring and I heard familiar voices, it was Roll, Kalinka and Alia's voices and I think I maybe heard Iris too. I was about ready to run like hell when Axl grabbed my shoulder and shook his head and then whisper spoke.
"Rock, when will you ever get to see hot naked women that you work with?" Axl asked. I thought for a second and tried to come up with a scenario but they were all impossible.
"N-Never..." I muttered. I'm pretty sure my face was on fire.
"Well, take advantage of the now, okay? lets ease up there and they won't even notice us." Axl said. After looking for 3 seconds I covered my eyes out of guilt. It was the first time I'd actually seen a naked, person like in front of me...it was wierd. Too wierd. I'm of course I've watched porn and stuff, I mean like, I was a teenaged boy once, but I've never actually ya know...so...it was strange.
I looked over at Axl and he had the most evilly happy grin on his face I stopped looking and just leaned on the wall. Suddenly I heard a scream and I knew that we'd been found out. So like the ninja I am...which I'm not, I hid in a bush, Axl however was not so lucky and the girls caught him red-handed.
"Ohhhh helllll the fuck no." I heard come from some random black chick and suddenly I knew it was about to go down.
So coming out of the water with all their nakedness a bunch of girls who were not Roll Kalinka, and Alia all came running out and basically in short, beat the shit out of Axl, with lots of kicks, honestly they stomped him out for most of the battle and yes I watched the whole time, I saw towels,fall breast flying and honestly it was the single most hot thing I've ever seen. This was totally all worth it. The only things I heard from Axl were as follows:
"Oh god yes, please hit me more"
After realizing that Axl was a destiny level pervert they yelped and ran away back into the pool. No one bothered to call security, After it was all over I walked over to Axl and I looked down to see him on the ground slightly bruised and a little bleeding with the hugest grin on his face. The grin was contagious and I found myself grinning too. Axl threw a thumbs up and he spoke.
"That was totally worth it." Axl muttered. I tilted my head at Axl for a second and then spoke.
"It looked like it, I saw the whole thing. They really did a number on you." I said observing his bruises.
"Rock, this has potentially been the best day of my life." Axl said suddenly.
"I think you need to get bandaged up." I said suddenly. I helped Axl off of the ground and I felt his body wieght on mine, He was a bit heavy but I had him. We walked past the guy side and Zero and X were laughing super hard when they saw Axl.
"So how was it?" Zero asked with a grin.
"Amazing." We both answered at the same time. Zero and X laughed in the distance as we walked back into the hotel part. It was a long way to our room and I noticed about halfway there that Axl was erect because it brushed up against my leg, I blushed but said nothing. It was too awkward, but at the same time I would be surprised if he didn't have it. I had it but it wore off so I wasn't judging.
Axl looked like he was going into dream land.
I got back to our heart filled room and turned on the lights and placed Axl on the bed and went to go get the first aid kit that I saw in the bathroom earlier that day. It had bandages and random ointments for all the small cuts and bruises and I basically without even saying I was going to bandage Axl up. We didn't make eye contact or talk to each other the whole time, which made the silence thick, especially because of Axl's boner...which I tried and tried not stare at. At the back of my mind I was sighing and telling myself that the thirst was real and I should come to terms with it. After I was done with all that first aid stuff Axl flopped on the bed and looked up at the ceiling and spoke at that point I been changing out of my swim stuff.
"Thanks Rock, for the bandaging and stuff." He said sleepily.
"Well yeah you would've had my back if it was me." I said with a shrug.
"Oh totally man, Rock you're the best." Axl said almost muttering, I knew from many video game late nights when Axl starts muttering he's sleepy.
"Yeah I am the best. But you should like, get into pajamas if you're gonna go to sleep dude." I said.
"You're right, but something about getting you're ass beat by a bunch of sexy ladies, it just makes you tired after words. Like I can't even take care of this." Axl said point at his manhood. I looked away quickly.
"Err...well on that note...I'm just gonna leave the room...so you can...yeaaah...er...bye." I exited quickly, I was now in regular clothes. I walked down the hallway super embarassed. But then my mind when to another place.
Even though I had seen what I'd seen less than 30 minutes ago, my mind was still on Axl and honestly now, I was 100% sure that I was attracted to him and there was nothing I could do about it. Axl would never like me back and I was sure most of his teasing jokes were just jokes and honestly there was no solution to that...I felt like I needed to talk to someone about it. Someone who would understand...I thought and thought, definitely not Roll, she would troll me, so would the rest of the girls, suddenly X came to mind.
Surely he'd know what to tell me. So as quick as lightning I sent X a text message saying that I needed advice on something. X told me to drop by his and Zero's hotel room so I did. When I got there X opened the door and I looked inside and their room had a theme as well but it was themed after a traditional japanese house it was really cool in there, it however wasn't as cute as our heart room though, Jesus I am a fruit.
"Sooo Rock, what's up?" X asked sitting on the couch in front of the TV. I noticed Three's company was on and I knew it had gotten late. I noticed Zero wasn't a around so I realized that X and I were alone.
"I, think erm...well." I couldn't get the words out.
"What's up? You can tell me, I won't tell anyone. Not even Jesus." X said he looked at me with sympathizing eyes as if he knew what I was already going to say.
"Like...how was it when you first realized you liked Zero?" I asked suddenly. X looked like he thought for a second.
"I was scared. Scared shitless of rejection." X said.
"R-Really?" I asked suddenly, yeah that's not comforting.
"Totally, I thought he was gonna hate me, or think I was weird or even grow apart from me, because I liked him." X said as if he were flashing back on the situation.
"How old were you?" I asked. X thought for a second.
"Probably like 15." X said.
"Ouch." I responded.
"But ya know, deep down I realized that if Zero was really my friend he wouldn't resent me for liking him, instead even if he didn't feel the same way he'd still be there for me. Cause that's what friends do." X said.
"X you've got too much faith in humanity." I said with a small smile. X nodded.
"Well people surprise you sometimes, humanity however needs to have faith in itself." X said.
"That's deep man." I said suddenly.
"Yeah I normally say overly deep stuff when I'm a little drunk." X said suddenly with a giggle. I couldn't even tell.
"Wow...okay." I responded.
"So you like Axl then right?" X said with a grin. I nodded looking down.
"W-Well yeah." I replied.
"It'll happen one of these days, let Axl come around he's being stubborn, just always be there." X said confidently.
"A-Are you serious?" I said getting overly happy, just a few seconds ago I thought no way in hell we'd ever been together.
"Hahaha no. Just a wild guess." X said with an almost Cheshire smile.
"Oh, well." I said scratching the back of my head not knowing what to say.
"Rock you're problem is that you've got no sex appeal, like at all." X said with a giggle and a stumble At that time I fully saw just how drunk X was.
"Sooo X, how much have you drank today?" I asked suddenly.
"Two whole bottles." X said as if it were some accomplishment, and no doubt it was.
"You're going to die tomorrow." I said. X just laughed.
"Drinking is what keeps the negativity away~!" X says suddenly I tilt my head a bit.
"Errr...what?" I'm sort of concerned at this point.
"I'm so happy, I'm sunshine happy, rainbows lollipops, and SUGAR." X said with a crackling laugh. I knew that it was time to leave.
"X, I just erm." I said pointing towards the door.
"Wait! Don't you want to hear about how miserable I am?" X said like a small child.
"I...errr, sure why not." I said sitting down once more.
I then heard about how X shaves everyday and he hates it but it's all for the D. I heard about how the public sees him and how he see's himself and last of all I heard about how he really feels about his life at the age of 24 and how he wishes that Zero liked kids more and how all his life he's always wanted to be someone's uncle. Yeah that last part was getting confusing. Long story short I ended up leaving at about 4:00 am.
I passed Zero in the hallway and stopped him for a second in pure horror.
"Is X always like that when he's wasted?" I asked him suddenly in the hallway. Zero nodded slowly.
"Yeah but he's a pretty cute complainer so we all forgive him." Zero said with a shrug.
"He shaves everyday for you, ungrateful bastard." I said walking off. Zero then stood in the hallway in thought.
I was super sleepy by the time I got back to my room. But when I turned the key I noticed there was sound coming from the room. I opened the door and saw Axl sitting on the bed watching Ranma 1/2. I walked in with a smile. Axl turned to me and waved, I noticed he was in some strange full body pajama suit that was all polka dot with a freaking cookie in his mouth. I wanted a cookie.
"So...you have anymore cookies yo?" I asked flopping sleepily on the bed. Axl paused Ranma.
"Totally." Axl said grabbing a whole box from the night stand and handing it to me. I grabbed the raspberry one. Axl turned back on Ranma and I got up and changed into pajamas as soon as I finished that cookie. As soon I as I was done I flopped back on the heart-shaped bed and started watching Ranma.
I realized it was episode 8, when Ryoga came in, my favorite character. I randomly spoke.
"Ryoga's my favorite. I think he deserves to be with Akane." I said. Axl looked over at me as if I was crazy.
"No dude, it's totally Ryoga and Ukyo." Axl said as if it were a fact. I shook my head.
"Noooooo, I ship Ukyo and Shampoo."
"But they hate each other."
"Sooo S&M love." I said with a shrug.
"Then who's Ranma gonna end up with?"
"Kuno obviously." I said with a smirk. Axl gave me a "eww face"
"Dude...no..." Axl said.
"It's cute, almost, I mean sempai noticed him." I said with a laugh.
"Rock, actually ya know what? I ship Ryoga and Ranma. It'd be cute because Ranma could change into a girl sometimes and ya know..." Axl said with a grin.
"I agree completely. All my other ships are void now. That's my new OTP." I said.
"That and Nabiki and Kasumi." Axl said with a grin. I nodded. It got quiet and the episode ended, I spoke suddenly.
"So, X is really strange." I stated suddenly. Axl nodded.
"You're just now noticing?" He said with a small laugh.
"X needs a really long hug." I said.
"So go give it to him." Axl said. I shook my head.
"But Zero will find me in the night." I said.
"I don't doubt that. So, Rock what side of the bed do you sleep on." Axl asked. I thought for a second.
"What ever side you're not sleeping on I guess." I said with a shrug.
"Good answer man." Axl said getting in the bed. I got on the other side.
"This is legitimately the softest bed I've ever slept on." I said snuggling in softer.
"Dude this is the best day ever." Axl said with his eyes closed almost half asleep already.
"Axl. you've gained so many gut points today it's insane." I said suddenly. Axl opened his eyes.
"You think so? Just what I was aiming for." Axl said closing them slowly again.
"So you strive to get gut points everyday?" I asked curiously.
"Yep. I want to be destiny level by the time I'm 30." Axl murmured.
"That's 6 years from now, Right?" I asked. Axl sleepily nodded.
"30 sounds so old, and so far." Axl said suddenly.
"Tell me about it." I said looking at the ceiling restless.
"I wanna grow a goatee." Axl said with a small smile.
"I want a girlfriend." I said suddenly. Axl opened his eyes and looked at me with a certain face I didn't know.
"Rock, promise me something, don't settle for a chubby dirty otaku chick with colored hair. You are better than that." Axl said with a slightly serious tone. I was surprised about how awake he was suddenly.
"I er...okay." I said with a nod.
"Cause if you do, I'll kill her,... fat bitch..." Axl murmured. I could tell he was past his sleepy limit. It was almost 6:00 am.
"What if I like chubby otaku girls." I asked suddenly.
"No...I won't let it happen..." Axl said still drifting off to sleep.
"Chubby otaku girls need love too." I said with a small smile and a laugh.
"Rock I swear...its not a good life...and don't end up with a fat guy either, I'll cut his dick off ...oh wait...I probably can't find it under all that fat...Rock he'll crush you." Axl said. It was the last thing he said before he finally fell completely asleep. I was trying to hold back laughter.
(For all you fat otakus out there reading this fanfiction, you are all drop dead sexy and Stupid Froggy would kiss all of you on the cheek.)
I looked at Axl and his breathing got lighter and I could tell he was officially knocked out. But as soon as he was it occurred to me, we were in the same bed. All of a suddenly I got extremely nervous. We were sleeping in the same bed...he was sleeping right next to me. I looked over at Axl and he was knocked completely knocked out. I was sitting there thinking about all the things that could go wrong through the night and I worried myself to sleep.
Honestly the rest of the hot springs was good but, nothing could compare to that first day. I mean sure stuff came close, like Zero climbing that tree and fucking himself up on it, or that time that Roll gave me a back run or when X and Sigma started playing Ping-Pong and it got too real.
That's when I realized that, these people I work with, they're all batshit crazy, in their own unique way. Who hired us all? Sigma? Sigma did this on purpose. So, at the end of the day it makes me wonder, does Sigma have some sick fantasy about a crazy office and all the shenanigans it comes with? And if so why did Sigma hire me? I'm pretty average, I have nothing really about me that stands out. Did he hire me to see, a completely sain person in a place like this, if so, does he like to see me squirm. As I think all of this I look at Sigma from across the room. He looks up at me and smirks. I'm scared shitless now. Excuse me while I go call off sick and work strange hours for the next two weeks.
The end.
This is taking place in the middle of chapter two and three. I'm sorry if I didn't make that clear and peeps be confuzzled. It's okay. Accept it. I just want to say that, I love the hell out of this chapter. Like it really should've been apart of the main story, but with only 5 chapters planned there was just no room. I almost think of this chapter as some strange OVA. Anyways, more oneshots are coming and other shit from me.
I'm tired...have a nice whatever people!
