It's Got To Be Love-AkuRoku
Chapter 4
Annoyingly, Dr. Jenkins kept looking into my eyes while I was sleeping.
"Do you have to do that?"I asked. I looked the clock on the other side of the room. It's was fucking 5 in the morning!
"I need to check to see if you're okay and write it down in my reports; in a case such as yours you need to be checked every hour to see how you are recovering." He answered whispering." Are you looking forward to your birthday tomorrow?"
"Yeah but it's sad that I'm spending it in here" I answered. He nodded in agreement. "But what about when my other doctor checked up on me? Why didn't I wake up then?" I demanded.
"I may be the cleverest person in the whole wide world, but I don't have all the answers to every question Roxas do I?" Dr. Jenkins chuckled. I smirked at his typical remark.
"When can I get out of here Doc?" I asked, I may like Dr. Jenkins but I don't want to be stuck in this miserable place...
"That's the thing Roxas, I don't know. This could take from a minimum of 1 week to a maximum of 2 months but very luckily your case isn't as serious to reach the max. I'd say... 1-2 weeks before you would be aloud to go unless you had a full-time carer at home and continuous appointments." Dr Jenkins explained carefully.
"Aerith could look after me; I live with her don't I?" I asked confused.
"I'm sorry Roxas but she is sending you back to the care home you and Sora were in, she organised this after you and Sora were too much stress and she couldn't cope with money. So we filed her as financially unstable. Sorry Roxas but I need to go to my meeting, I'll be back in an hour" Dr. Jenkins said while walking out of the door.
Once again, I was alone and bored out of my mind. I wanted to see Demyx and Zexion and ask about school and if our Science teacher, Mr Vexen, was still causing fires in class. Mr Vexen would always wear his lab coat and fake medals that he 'apparently' won. I doubt that. He may have done loads of experiments but they would all turn out wrong. Like one time he tried to make all of us grow up into adults but he ended up turning us back into babies. I thought it would be all over for him and he'd lose his job but instead he got a promotion and was made 'Head of Science'. Well what would you expect from our head teacher, Marluxia, god-knows why he got a job close to children. He's a fucking pedo! Well back to the point, Mr Marluxia and Mr Vexen are together. They deny it but you know, if you catch people together outside of school holding hands then you'd assume their together right? Well anyway, I'd be out of here soon away from the bleach smell of the hall and Dr. Jenkins bad jokes. I still didn't know what Hypothermia was, the only thing I knew about it was you can get it when you're unbelievably cold and you can die from it. I suppose that's all there is to it, I couldn't believe I was stupid enough to run out when it was below freezing, it's all Aerith's fault! If it wasn't for her I wouldn't have ran out because of her pathetic joke. My heart monitor started beeping faster as I kept thinking about Aerith; well luckily I wouldn't have to put up with her anymore. She was gone now and I didn't have to see her ever again, my heart rate was back to normal now.
Suddenly the door opened, I could see Zexion and Demyx. Zexion was reading his book as Demyx thanked the Nurse.
"Put the book down for a minute Zexy!" Demyx exclaimed. He had bags under his eyes from the lack of sleep he's had. Zexion glared at Demyx but closed the book anyway.
"Hey guys. What's up?" I asked trying to break the tension.
"Why were you out at 4 in the morning?" Zexion asked, ignoring my question. His hair was greasy and didn't have its healthy glow like it usually had.
"It was Aerith, she annoyed me so I needed to calm down and think things through and then I saw Ax-" I gulped.
"Yeah it's ok we heard all that from Axel. You don't have to explain all that to us, and he told us that you told him that you still love him..." Demyx said.
I blushed "Has Axel told anyone else?"
"No, only me and Demyx know about it. Axels really upset and confused Roxas! Whenever someone somehow brings up your name he gets really angry and then bursts out crying!" Zexion explained he stared at me with his sea-blue eyes.
"I'm sorry Zexion but I had to tell him sooner or later, he would have found out from Sora. You know that Sora's a loud mouth. I know it's wrong and stupid to say I don't love you then I love you but he had to know" I explained, looking away.
"We shouldn't be speaking about this now, Roxas needs to get better. Come on Zexion, let's go and leave Roxas so he can sleep, see ya' Roxas" Demyx said, as cool as ice.
"Bye, see you both soon." I managed a smile as they left.
Life's going to be awkward at school when I go back, Axel is going to hate me for sure and I don't blame him. I should at least have waited for when I was better.
Dr. Jenkins came in for another check-up and told me to rest. I couldn't sleep. I kept thinking about Axel and what life was going to be like without him.
"Roxas you don't have to sleep if you don't want to" Dr. Jenkins told me.
"I know, but I was just thinking about Sora and what care home were both going to" I lied.
"Oh... Roxas that reminds me your social worker Mr Squall is meeting you in 10 minutes to talk about your care home." He said. Dr. Jenkins' face fell. Why was he so upset? There was a knock at the door.
"If that's who I think it is he's really early..."A puzzled frowned "Please come in".
Leon, my social worker, walked to my bedside. "Wassup' mate? Feelin' okay?" He asked curiously.
"I've been better" I chuckled as I slowly sat up.
Leon bit his lip "Look Roxas, I've got some bad news for you... you and Sora will both be put into different care homes to help boost the chances of you getting adopted. I'm afraid it's getting harder and harder to find a home for brothers these days, so as soon as your better you will be going to your care home." Leon explained carefully. I looked at him in shock, how could they do this? Sora was the only family I had left apart from my dad but my dad can die for all I care. Sora was always there for me.
"You can't do this! Sora's my brother, my only family! I don't care about being adopted anymore, I just want to my brother!" I sobbed. Leon and Dr. Jenkins tried to calm me down, but I didn't listen, I just screamed till I had no energy left. I laid on my bed, still crying while Leon spoke soothing words to me.
"What's the name of the care home I'm going to?" I croaked.
"It's called 'Organisation XIII'. I've been there to check it out for you, it's lovely, it's full of things to do, the children and the adults are very kind and considerate." Leon whispered.
"Where's Sora going?" I asked.
"He's going to a Care home called 'Destiny Islands'. It's right by the beach. You could go to the beach when you visit Sora" Leon replied, he was happier now I wasn't shouting.
"Yeah I'd like that" I said.
"Well I must get goin' now Roxas. Get better soon, see ya'!" Leon said as Dr. Jenkins showed him some of my health notes.
"Wait! What's the name of the care home again?" I asked.
Leon looked back up "Organisation XIII, bye" Leon spoke as he waved good-bye.
I paused and stared at the door for several minutes. "Roxas what's wrong?" Dr. Jenkins asked.
"Nothing" I said quickly, I had realised something, something big. That was Axel's care home... I was going to be living with Axel. Axel, I'd upset him, the Axel I had caught lying to me, the Axel that saved my life. What was I going to do...?
A/N: I hope you've enjoyed the 4th chapter! Thanks for the review KingdomHearts-Love; I think I might use that XD (The suggestion is great!) I MUST apologise for the really visible mistakes that I have done in the 1, 2 and 3rd chapter. I will put the 5th chapter on tomorrow!
