It's Got To Be Love-AkuRoku
Chapter Three
I woke up in a strange room; scratchy blankets were wrapped round me and a doctor was constantly checking my temperature. "Oh dear, oh dear... Oh my golly gosh!" the man said, worry filled his face. "Can you breathe ok? Do you know why you're here? Can you move around without pain? Even though you've slept for over 12 hours do you fell drowsy?" he gabbled on. He was mine and Sora's doctor, his name was Dr. Jenkins. I would always remember him for his continuous sweating and messy ponytail.
I lifted my pale arm with pain, "I hurts a bit when I move and I can't feel a difference with my breathing apart from its a bit slower. Can you just tell me what's wrong with me doc? I don't want to spend Christmas in here" I explained. Doctor Jenkins shook his head in his disbelief.
"You've got Hypothermia Roxas. A moderate case, you need to get treatment as quick as possible. Do you feel hot Roxas?" He asked.
"Come to think of it I'm boiling. Can you turn the radiator down?" I asked, wiping the sweat of my head.
"This is worse than I thought. You can die from this Roxas, your temperatures is below normal, to be precise its below 32 degrees. We need to keep you as warm as possible. If it wasn't for that red-head Axel you would be dead right now. In fact here he is" He said, showing Axel in.
"I'll leave you too alone for a while, you can have 5 minutes and that's it." Dr. Jenkins spoke.
Axel walked towards the right side of my uncomfortable bed; he was brushing my messy hair with his bony fingers. We stayed in silence; I guess Axel was scared about what I thought of him now after I found out he was lying to me about Larxene. I looked up to see his exhausted face, "You didn't have to stay, Larxene's probably calling you because you're not giving every second of your life to her" I said sarcastically. Axel said nothing; he carried on fiddling with my hair, I could tell he was just trying to stay strong and not cry but gradually his face screwed up and tears were dropping onto my pillow. I sat up and hugged him, no longer feeling angry, he hugged me back tightly. I felt bad for him; I would always put him through things like this like 5 months ago I was going to swallow Aerith's sleeping pills but Axel was there to stop me and a year ago I was going to cut my wrist with Sora's razor but Axel stopped me. In fact, he was always there for me, even when we were arguing.
"I'm so sorry Roxas" Axel sobbed "I guess she kinda' persuaded me to go to her house. I'm so stupid!"
"I'm sorry too" I whispered into his ear as he cried.
"What are you sorry for?" Axel asked.
"For putting you through all this, I mean when I was going to cut myself you convinced me my life was worth living and when you caught me about to down Aerith's pills; you were always there for me Axel." I explained. I had calmed down from crying now.
"I've got something to tell you Axel." I said, gently pushing Axel away.
"What's wrong?" Axel asked, starting to get worried. His green eyes were bloodshot from crying.
"Nothing's wrong, but I need to get this off my chest, the reason I'm so jealous about you and Larxene is because... no it doesn't matter." I explained, this would be the wrong time to blurt it out.
"No Roxas. Remember last time when you refused to tell me how you felt? I found you with a bottle of pills in your hand! So just tell me please Roxas." Axel pleaded.
"I love you okay?" I blurted out. Axel looked hurt and angry in some way.
"No Roxas, you can't. If you did you wouldn't have called it off between us but you did. This isn't just a cruel joke is it?" Axel asked. I was really worried at his response.
"I wouldn't joke about love Axel. It's too powerful and you can't control it" I explained, desperately hoping Dr. Jenkins would come in to say our 5 minutes was over.
"Roxas, this isn't the right time. I'm happy with Larxene, were together now." Axel said, slowly walking towards the door.
"Axel she's using you! I've seen her with a ton of boys, she's a slut and you bloody know it!" I shouted. I had a cough fit and Dr. Jenkins ran in and looked at me and Axel.
"I think you should now sir" Dr. Jenkins said sternly at Axel. He ran outside and I could hear sobbing, he was obviously really upset.
"How can you cure this?" I asked curiously "and where's my brother Sora?"
"Well it's quite easy to be honest but the way we are going to do it may be simple but it's going to take a long time to get back to your usual self. Sora and your foster mum did come to see you but Aerith had to get to work and Sora is god-knows-where!" He explained.
"I think I'm going to rest now but if you see Sora can you tell him to wait for me please? I'm really desperate to see him." I explained.
"Sure Roxas. I will see you tomorrow. A new doctor will be with you from 5 till 5 in the morning. I'll be here at 5. Bye Roxas" Dr. Jenkins said as he wrote down my heart rate and walked out of the door.
I fell asleep to the rhythm of my heart beating. I couldn't help but think about Axel before I went to sleep and about how upset he was when he ran out crying. I couldn't believe myself. I made Axel cry, I mean even if someone beat Axel to a pulp he wouldn't cry. He would probably shake it off. Well it was a definitely a bad time to say that but I honestly couldn't help who I loved. I shouldn't keep thinking about him. I was just going to get more upset.
"Roxas?" Sora asked, waking me up. "Sorry did I wake you?"
"No it doesn't matter" I started crying, I looked up at my brother face, it was all puffy from crying and he was wearing his blood-red +pyjamas and old P.E trainers.
"Roxas what's the matter?" he asked worried.
"It's Axel" I sobbed "I told him how I felt and what I feel about Larxene and he looked confused and disgusted at the idea. He said that he loved her and stuff and then I went a bit over the top. I shouted at him and he ran out crying!"
"Axel? Crying?" Sora looked at me confused.
"I know I'm a horrible, dishonest and stupid person!" I cried and coughed.
"Roxas you're just emotionally upset, you start to think your horrible and no-one wants you but if you haven't realised I'm here, Axel's been here and when you've needed him most. You have Naminé, Demyx, Zexion and loads of other people! Do you think they would have hung out with you if they hated you? No it's because your kind and thoughtful and a great friend. Axel will calm down sooner or later but until then you've got all those other people to listen and look after you when you're down. Just sit back and time will take its cause. Look Aerith said I could only stay for a little while so I will see you tomorrow. See you later Rox, go back to sleep." Sora said, giving me a goodbye hug.
"See ya Sora" I attempted to look happy but my face was covered in tears so that failed! I fell straight asleep; I hope I don't get any other distractions today. My days been full of them...
