Chapter 18: Vacation Day

I have a new friend now, well, I don't know if I can call it "friend", Xion does, but during the last days I've been starting to think she's a little crazy. I mean, now that I think it clearly, who wants to have a dog as a friend? They can't talk, and I seriously think they can't eat Ice cream like we do. Well, who am I to judge others? I'm the boy who's always asking questions about things everybody knows after all… or at least that's what Axel says to me…

It was still early on The World That Never Was so almost everybody was sleeping, Roxas was in the part of the sleep that he always said was the "best" so he didn't liked to be disturbed during that time, however, this day he wasn't going to get his wish granted…

He suddenly felt something wet on his cheek, he then felt as "water" was falling from his cheeks. He quickly cleaned his cheek and changed his sleeping position to the opposite side.

-Roxas, wake up! Wake up! –he heard Xion's voice, Roxas groaned

-What is it? There's still time before we do our missions. Just 5 more minutes.

-But today's a day off! So we get to take a break! –Xion grinned, Roxas opened his eyes and sat looking at Xion, she was still on her pajamas which consisted on mini shorts and a white sleeveless shirt. Roxas was only wearing black sleeping pants and no shirt.

-A break? –Roxas mumbled still with a bed head as the dog beside him licked again his cheek

A few minutes later, Roxas, Axel and Xion (still on pajamas) were on a room which the Organization sometimes used for meetings, Xion was on her feet with a marker on hand ready to write on the white board some ideas or suggestions on how to spend their day off. Roxas was looking at her with a curious face, Axel was trying to get some sleep on the desk with his arms crossed making a pillow for his head

-We wouldn't want to regret today's vacation, so let's plan something awesome for today! –Xion explained to her two friends, Axel rose his head and sighed

-Umm… Xion. What we do on each of our day offs is nothing to discuss about. –Axel explained, all of Xion's happiness seemed to go away at this

-Well, what is it that you want to do Axel? –she asked

-Frankly, I just want to sleep in. –Axel simply explained, Xion looked at him in shock

-What! What did you do on your last day off? -she asked again

-Don't remember… Didn't I sleep then? –Xion was completely in shock now, she got on the desk and exploded…

-IS THAT REALLY SOMETHING TO BE OK WITH! Won't you regret it? When it's all over, how did you spend your day today? You did nothing! I think that is just wasteful! –Xion shouted him directly to his face while taking his cheeks with her hands

Roxas was staring at his friends nervously, he first thought Xion was crazy, but know he was sure of it. "Looks like they're about to kiss!" he thought while chuckling

-Alright, Alright! –Axel said defeated, Xion released him and started panting

-Xion… are you ok? –Roxas asked who had been quiet practically all the "meeting", but he was completely ignored

-On vacations it's really not about what you do that matters you eagerly exhausted guy. Generally, vacation is about sleeping. So it's good to sleep all day. –Axel explained, but Xion ignored him

-First, I want each of you to tell me what you want to do. –Xion happily ordered, Axel glared at her but then sighed

-I want to sleep. –Axel simply said placing his hands behind his head, Xion glared at him now and sighed, she then turned and smile to Roxas

-What about you, Roxas?

-Uhh… This is my first vacation, so I don't know…What are the other members doing?

-Well…I can guess… I'm pretty sure Xigbar and Xaldin are sleeping. Since Saix doesn't seem to have a hobby or something, I'm pretty sure he's ordering the Dusks to clean or planning tomorrow missions. Demyx must be playing his Sitar and Luxord planning strategies with his cards, and Xemnas must be staring at Kingdom Hearts with a stupid face! –Axel explained, Xion looked at the two guys with disapproval

-Wrong… You're all wrong. It'd be nice for more holidays… -Xion mumbled to herself

-That's why you should spend your day however you like. –Axel repeated her

-If you don't mind me asking, what do you want to do Xion? –Roxas asked

-Uh…Umm… -she started thinking, but nothing came to her mind

-Let's just go and hang out for today. –Axel sighed

-A few moments later, Roxas, Axel and Xion were at the top of the clock tower with an ice chest full of ice creams. Xion turned and smiled to her friends…

-I've always wanted to eat ice cream here with you two, at least once. –she said smiling, Axel laughed and raised his eyebrow at her

-Is that so? But this is what we usually do. –Axel explained, Xion looked at him confusion in her face, she then realized Axel's words were true

-…This IS what we usually do…! –she yelled, Roxas and Axel laughed at the girl's expression

-Its ok, just eat 'till your stomach is full. Ok, 10 for each person, right? –Axel said counting the ice creams, Xion nodded

-Hey Xion, what about the dog? –Roxas asked

-Oh, he's asleep. I didn't wanted to wake the poor thing. –she explained

The trio continued eating ice cream and chatting for about an hour. Axel usually told Roxas and Xion stories when he had a heart which made Roxas and Xion wish to remember who they were before becoming Nobodies…

-I wonder what kind of person I was… -Xion thought aloud

-Don't worry. The person you're now is a reflection of who you were before. That means you were a good girl! –Axel explained, Xion blushed a little

-Thanks. But I still want to remember.

-Hey… you said we're a reflection of who we were… So that means you were the same guy before? –Roxas asked, Axel got a little nervous but didn't showed it

- Umm…That's a story for another day. –he simply said, Roxas and Xion giggled, after some minutes of silence, Roxas spoke again

-It was a good idea to come here after all. I honestly don't know of other thing we could do beside this and videogames.

-Now that you mention it, we do the same things all days. Our life is a routine! –Xion added

-Well, we can't do other thing. It's not like we have memories from before or years of experience to know what else to do… -Roxas said, sending an obvious message to Axel that he obviously caught.

-Hey, it's not my fault you only like to do the same, so don't look at me! –Axel defended, Xion giggled

-Well, look at those kids… Shouldn't they be on… how is it called? …School? –Roxas asked pointing down to some kids playing with a disk

-Well, they must be on their Summer Vacations. A whole month without work, only spending time with your friends and why not, sleeping! –Axel said, Xion stared at him with disapproval because of his laziness.

-A whole month? That's a lot of time! I couldn't even think what to do on a single day. –Roxas answered

-Well, it's not like they doesn't have anything to do. Teachers gives them a lot of homework which they do together on their lasts days of vacations. –Axel explained

-That somehow sounds funny. –Xion smiled, Roxas nodded

-That's a lot of time anyway. 7 days will be enough for me…maybe. –Roxas added finishing his 4th ice cream.

-Well that's your opinion, not mine. –Axel smiled, Roxas took another ice cream and bite it, he immediately made a disgust face

-Man… It certainly getting tough to eat 5 of these now… -Roxas said finishing another ice cream, Xion nodded in agreement

-Do you want another? –Axel said handing one to Roxas and Xion, but they reject it with their heads. They stayed there in silence enjoying the sight and their Sea-Salt Ice Creams until Xion spoke again…

-I wonder if we'll be together forever… -she thought aloud, Roxas and Axel turned to her and stare at her with curiosity

-Well I hope so! I don't know what I'll do if you weren't with me! –Roxas exclaimed, Xion smiled to him while Axel looked at him with curiosity also

-What, is eating Ice Cream all you want to do with your lives? –Axel told them, Roxas and Xion turned to each other and then to Axel nodding

-Why not? I like spending my time with you two! –Roxas answered, Axel shook his head

-What's wrong Axel, is it hanging out with us that bad? –Xion added, Axel looked at the girl and he could "feel" fear in her eyes, or at least that's what he saw on them, he turned to Roxas and saw that he was staring at him with the same eyes. He finally laughed at the two teens expressions.

-What's wrong with those looks? It seems like if I kicked your puppy. Considering is possible since you have one now, remember? –Axel said pointing Xion, she quickly shook her head

-You don't like hanging with us! –the girl cried, Axel laughed again and shook his head

-That's not true. I like it! If it weren't true I wouldn't be here. Trust me.

-So why you reacted like that? What's wrong with ice cream then? –Roxas asked

-Well, everything in life can get odd. Television, videogames, ice cream, everything! That's why we're here right? Trying to get hearts of our own again! –he explained, Xion sighed

-There you go again… you keep telling us we need to get our hearts back in order to be the persons we were before. But what if I don't want to be that person again? I like my life the way it is know! –she told them, both guys stared at her in disbelief, she then turned around so that they couldn't see her face…

-Xion… I know it might scare you, but you don't have anything to fear. Believe me, even though hearts are important, they won't change who you actually are. –Axel explained her

-Xion, believe Axel. He's our friend. He just wants the best for us! –Roxas added putting a hand on her shoulder

-Trust me. Having a heart just makes your life better. You have nothing to fear! –Axel added placing his hand on her other shoulder, the girl slowly turned and faced Axel

-Are you sure? –she shyly asked, Axel grinned

-Of course! What, you don't trust me? I'm hurt! –Axel said making a dramatic pose that made Xion laughed a little

-I trust you. Thank you, guys. –she said smiling to the two guys

-Oh well, I'm starting to get bored and I really doubt you'll eat the rest of your ice creams, so lets go to play some video games. –Axel suggested, Xion immediately jumped from her seat

-YEAH! –she happily cried opening immediately a dark corridor and stepping in it, Roxas and Axel blinked at the dark corridor

-She really has a problem with video games… -Roxas muttered, Axel nodded

-Yeah… maybe It was a bad idea to put the Nintendo 64 on her room… -Axel added, Xion reappeared from the dark corridor angrily

-What are you waiting for! Hurry up! –she angrily told them, Roxas and Axel nervously nodded and followed her

A few hours later, they had dinner and everybody returned to their respective rooms. Xion was ready to get her shower before sleeping when somebody knocked her door. She quickly put on her coat and opened the door where Saix was waiting to her surprise.

-…Yes? –she asked a little scared but tried no to show it

-The Organization Impostor has been spotted. Go to Beast's Castle Immediately. It's a direct order from Lord Xemnas. –Saix coldly told her, she softly nodded

-…Yes sir.

-Failure is not an option. –he added before he finally disappeared on a Dark Corridor.
