It has to be Love.

Chapter 2: The meeting at the Clock tower.

Gradually, I picked up my ringing mobile. "Bloody hell, who's that..." I yawned. It was Axel.

I yawned again. "Hi Axel, what's up?"

"Err, sorry Roxas I can't make it to the clock tower."

"Let me guess. Larxene..." I said, disgusted at the name.

"Yeah, sorry Rox, she wanted me to meet her parents. Maybe tomorrow." Axel replied, not sounding sorry at all.

"No, go there with Larxene. It's not as if you go there with me anymore. Have fun with her you arsehole!"

"I'm so sorry Ro-" I ended the call; I just couldn't deal with Axel's lies right now.

"Could you come downstairs for a minute Roxas? There's someone here for you" Aerith shouted up the stairs.

"Yes I'm coming!" I shouted back. Aerith wasn't Sora's or my mum, she was our foster mum. Our mum died long ago, I never even knew her name and Sora refused to tell me. We lived with Cloud, our mother's brother, although it didn't turn out as well as we planned. Cloud died of a fatal heart attack while having an argument with one of his clients over the phone. Since then we have both been in care. As I slowly made my way downstairs I saw a small, fat man wearing a waterproof coat. He probably bought an extra large one. "Yes and who are you?" I asked, not really giving a damn.

"Alright mate?" The estranged fat man asked.

"I asked you a bloody question! Who are you?" I asked angrily. Aerith glared at Roxas, the 'Don't-be-so-rude' glare.

"I'm your dad son" he announced, my jaw fell to the floor. How dare him! How fucking dare him!

"Fuck off you old fat man! You can't be my dad, you're fat and ugly! For starters where were you when Sora and I needed you most eh? Let me guess a quiet night in with a shitty old television and a dozen McDonald meals. You make me sick, your no dad of mine!" I spat, my blood boiling. I ran up the stairs into my bedroom and locked the door. 'I hate him! I hate him! I hate him that fat old low-life! ' I thought as I cried until there were no more tears to cry. My phone bleeped unexpectedly. There were several texts from Axel.

'I am truly sorry Roxas'

'Talk to me please!'

'Please answer me!'

'Meet me at the Canteen at lunch tomorrow. We seriously need to talk.'

Roxas just stared at his Blackberry Curve. 'Should I reply? No I won't. That'll show him! Besides he's the one who started all this!' Immediately, I felt like he was going to explode with anger. I threw my phone against the wall and started trashing my room, ripping the sheet of the bed, screaming as I did it. "STUPID AXEL! STUPID, STUPID AXEL! I HATE HIM! GET OUT OF MY HEAD!" Roxas sobbed. Aerith ran into Roxas' wrecked room.

"What the hell do you think you're doing? You've ripped your bed sheet, there's dirt all over the bloody wall, your phones broken. Now we're going to have to buy a new one! You are a brat do you know that?" Aerith shouted. I could smell the coffee from her breath, a tear rolled down my cheek. Aerith gripped my arm, holding tightly. "Don't you dare do this again! If you do, you won't EVER see the light of day again." I nodded once again. Aerith finally let go of my arm, she slammed the door behind her as she left. I rested on my battered bed. I thought about Aerith, then Axel. I started crying again.

I looked at my alarm clock, it was 6 o'clock. I sighed, school tomorrow. I didn't even bother making my bed again, I was shattered. In fact as soon as I shut my eyes, I was in a dream. No Axel, no Aerith and no Sora. Instead I had an amazing dream, away from the reality of life.

I felt terrible when I woke up; my dream wasn't the best one to have. In my dream my mum was standing outside our house, wearing her favourite red dress that fitted her perfectly. I ran into her arms, she hugged me tight, kissing my head. I spoke to her and asked her questions about why she died and left me and Sora confused out of our minds, I also asked why no-one would tell us her name. She just told me it was too painful for them because of the way she died. I kept demanding for her name but she faded away and left me again. I miss mum, she died of cancer. Why do bad things always happen to good people? She was the loveliest mum in the world, she would always be there to help you with your homework and she would always speak to you whenever you needed her, even if there was a phone call from the landlord to kick us out. She was always there, that was why it came as such a shock when she wasn't there one morning and why our Uncle Cloud was lying on the floor crying his eyes out. Sora was standing next to him, shouting at him to calm down. Sora was just 5 at the time; he tried to take care of me because Cloud was always on the edge of having a break-down. That's all I could remember then, well I was only 2! I started crying, once the first tear dropped, I couldn't stop.

Aerith knocked on my door, "What the hell are you doing there Roxas? You're going to be late for school! Its 8 o'clock and Sora's waiting for you downstairs.".

"YES IM GETTING UP!" I shouted.

"Don't you dare shout at me!" Aerith yelled back.

I felt like trashing the place up again. (You see I have real anger problems!) Although I knew what mess that would get me into with Aerith, my bed was really uncomfortable to sleep in but I didn't want to tell her in case she shouted at me again. You see whenever I hear her annoying, 'innocent' voice I just want to shout and scream at her. I think it's because she called me son on the first day I stayed with her and that really set me off! I looked out the window, how come it's so dark? I asked myself. Nevermind.

After I put my black and red converses on and threw on yesterday's clothes, I grabbed my bag and sprinted downstairs.

"I'm-r-ready..." I panted.

"Wow! That was quick." Sora said, trying not to laugh.

"What's so fucking funny?" I asked frustrated!

"Don't you dare use that type of language in this house!" Aerith shouted.

I rolled my eyes at her. Stupid Aerith.

"Roxas... Sora... It's actually 4 in the morning!" Aerith burst out with laughter! That must have been why it was so dark...

"Oh I'm glad you find it so funny! You're meant to be a foster mum not a comedian. You'd be shit at both of them anyway! I hate you, you're a fucking idiot!"I shouted as I grabbed my coat, my phone and stormed out of the house. I froze as soon as soon as I stepped out of the house. My pathetic leather jacket was hardly going to keep me warm! I didn't know where to go or what to do, I couldn't see Axel, and it would be w-a-a-a-y to awkward. Besides, I was seeing him at lunch anyway.

I heard giggling and voices. The voices sound familiar... and then I saw where it was coming from. Axel had obviously spent the night at Larxene's and was trying to climb down the pipe.

"Thank you Axel for staying! I'm sorry you have to go but my parents will be back soon" Larxene giggled.

"That's ok sexy!" Axel said, gazing up at Larxene.

"See you later Axe!" she whispered, she finally closed her balcony doors.

After Axel finally climbed down the pipe, I watched him walk towards his red Ferrari. As he got in, he saw me staring at him.

"Roxas..." Axel whispered, worried that I had heard the whole thing.

I ran off sobbing. I knew I had to get as far away as I could from Axel. He may as well have stabbed me in the back, he wasn't meeting her parents. He was just spending the night with Larxene, doing anything for her because she was a bitch. A needy bitch that no-one liked so she would just use people to satisfy her. I could remember every word of what I saw, it kept swarming in head so much I stopped running and fell to the ground crying. Many cars drove past, none of them stopped to help me. As each car drove past made me think of how much people cared about me. They didn't at all; they just probably looked down disgusted at the snotty, beggar of a boy. A red Ferrari drove past and reversed to my spot. A tall, lanky man wearing a stripy red and black t-shirt and black jeans crouched beside me.

"Roxie?" The strange man asked. I tried to look at him but my vision was blurred.

"Roxas can you hear me?" He kept saying my name continuously. He started shouting and shaking me vigorously. His voice began to fade, I couldn't feel anything, my vision was slowly getting worse. I couldn't move! Why couldn't I move...? I...

And then there was darkness.

I hope you enjoyed the second chapter! I enjoyed this one. I will have the third chapter finished tomorrow, I have already written it. Please review so I can get better as I am RUBBISH at writing.
