Yes it's out! What you say? But it hasn't even been three weeks! Well I feel like I need to make up for all the time I've been wasting. Seriously I feel like the worst author ever because I'm so bad at updating. This chapter is super long, I guess it's like an apology for being crap at updating and such. Well all I can say is having coffee and a crazy friend by your side makes the day go a lot quicker. Wow I'm rambling. Well any way I would just like to warn you that this chapter contains more bad language than usual, not that you give a flying fuck ;) So once again thanks to people who have reviewed and favourited etc this story I do appreciate it. I love Steph for editing this, if she didn't edit then the story would probably be a mixture of random words and sentences! I don't own KH or FF. This is from Roxas's POV….. Enjoy!
Fuck my life, I mean seriously. I'd already had a crappy start to the day and I was not in the mood to have that pedo on my back. The figure in the distance was none other than Xigbar, the IT teacher, who had harassed me a few days of the corner of my eye, I saw him staring at me intently; it was almost as if he wanted me to know he was looking. I ignored him and continued on. I decided that my best plan would be to walk straight past and ignore him.
"Hey there, sweet-cheeks. How are you doing today?" Xigbar asked in an almost mocking way as I attempted to walk past him. He seemed extremely happy for some reason. All I need to do is ignore him. "Whoa, little man, hold up just a sec. You can't just ignore me, that's rude. A 'hello' would be nice." He grabbed me by the arm as I passed, halting me in my tracks. I tugged harshly but was unable to get out of his grasp.
"Let go of me now, you fucking creep." I snapped back at him. Pff little man my sorry ass, I will grow one day! And it's not as if I'm small: it's just everyone else I know is taller than me!
"Awww isn't that cute! Even though your boyfriend isn't here to come to your rescue you still try to act all tough and hard!" A cruel grin spread across his face.
"B-BOYFRIEND?" I managed to stutter out, mouth hanging open in disbelief. Since when did I have a boyfriend! I mean I know that I'm unsure about my sexuality. I've never been in an actual relationship; it's never really crossed my mind.
"Yeah, the redhead. I do believe his name is Axel." Xigbar said this casually, as if Axel and I were actually going out and everybody knew about it.
"A-A-Axel…B-Boyfriend…Mine?" My whole face must have been bright red by now. I could feel myself heating up from head to toe. Why did he think I was going out with Axel? I mean I certainly wasn't going out with that unruly redhead!
"So you two aren't a couple then?" He said sounding shocked. I just shook my head, still dazed by the whole idea of dating Axel. "Well I got all the wrong ideas then! I thought you two had some sort of forbidden relationship going on. In my mind it was kinda kinky!" I almost choked on my own tongue! Where did he get that absurd idea from? I also noticed that someone else had appeared around the corner while Xigbar started talking again.
" I mean the tension between you two is… well lets just say I can almost feel it vibrate off both of you," I wanted to run, scream in this creeps face but I was still overwhelmed by the idea of being with Axel. I wonder what it would be like to be with the mischievous redhead…wait what tension?
"What the fuck are you on about, creep? Let go!" I said through my clenched teeth trying to push him off me. He didn't budge, was this guy made of steel or something?
"I'm not going to deny it, I watch the both of you. The way you act around each other literally shouts out 'we're in love!'. And you have to admit it, Axel does stare at you a lot." Xigbar said, he sounded kind of irritated. I wanted to tell him that he was lying and that he's been seeing things, but no words came out of my mouth. Xigbar stroked my cheek with his cold thumb and leant in forward. My normal reaction would have been to push him away and slap that pervert hard. But I couldn't, my legs just wouldn't move. The person from around the corner decided that now would be a good time to come in and save the day.
"Oh quit your jibberjabbering Xigbar. Number one Axel is going out with Larxene and number two no matter how many times you try and hit on Roxas he isn't going to go out or have sex with you!" That annoyingly loud voice belonged to Demyx! Demyx grabbed me and pulled me away from Xigbar.
"So the redhead has a girlfriend eh? That was unexpected, well at least I have more of a chance with you R-…" I was unable to move my arms and legs and I couldn't move my tongue to yell at him so instead I shot him a death glare. He fell silent, the colour from his face slowly drained away.
"Now c'mon Rox, you have a tutor to register! And Xigbar like I said before, Rox will never go out or have sex with you. In fact I don't think anyone would go for a creep like you!" And with that the mullet-head ran off, tugging me with him.
Once we had gotten as far away as possible we stopped running and began to walk, trying to get our breaths back. We stopped, Demyx released his hold on my arm and leant against the wall, panting for air.
"Damn it, I hate running. How on earth are you not out of breath sir?" He said once he had stopped panting. I think I was able to talk to now.
"Is A-Axel really going out with Larxene?" I spluttered out. I clapped a hand over my mouth and mentally cursed at myself. Why was that the first thing I had to say? Demyx raised an eyebrow at my outburst.
" 'Thanks Demyx for saving my sorry ass from the creep teacher, thanks Demyx for stopping that guy from raping me.' Jeez sir, no wonder Xigbar thought you and Axel were going out!" He said in a teasing way. I could once again feel myself heat up, ok it was my fault I asked that question but still…I was only being curious! I rolled my eyes at him.
"Thanks Dem for saving me even though I could have handled the situation I was in by myself." I know that was a complete lie but still, if I managed to convince Demyx that I could have handled the situation then I wouldn't come across as weak. The last thing I needed was people thinking I was weak. Demyx let out a loud snort.
"Please Roxas, you obviously couldn't have handled the situation. I mean you stood there frozen like an ice cube letting that old man molest you!" Demyx exclaimed, flailing his arms about. Maybe he wasn't as gullible as I had made him out to be.
"Whatever." I rolled my eyes again and pulled my phone out of my pocket to check the time. "SHIT! Demyx, I've got to rush off ahead, I'm late to tutor. If I don't get there soon I'm pretty sure everyone's going to be wrecking the place and I'm the one who's going to have to clear it up." I was about to rush off when Demyx grabbed my arm.
"Hold on one sec Rox. Seeing as we are buddies and well I did just save your ass back there, I do believe you owe me one. And I was hoping that maybe I could have this tutor off, you know just mark me in as present even though I won't actually be there…" He looked away and scratched his head as he began to whistle.
"Hold on. You're saying that you want to bunk tutor?" I guess I could see where he's coming from. Tutor is pretty boring and Demyx can get very annoying when he's bored… he nodded his head frantically and clapped his hands together as if he was praying.
"Oh please please please Sir! Pretty please with sprinkles on top! I promise you I'll go to next lesson, I pinky promise!" Demyx jumped up and down. I tapped my finger against my lip, weighing out the consequences of Demyx bunking.
"Well you can bunk but there are three conditions." His eyes lit up with happiness. "One you can't get caught or be seen by anyone especially not Mansex or I'll get fired." The mullet head snickered at the name. "Two, you must go to the rest of your lessons and you have to be there at afternoon tutor. And lastly you mustn't tell anyone about what happened back there. Now scram before anyone sees us." I let him go because I didn't want to owe him anything for saving me. Plus anyway tutor isn't important seeing as you don't do anything educational.
"Oh Roxas thank you so so so so much! I'll catch you later!" He slapped me on the back before scurrying off into the distance with a big grin plastered to his face. I really just hoped he wouldn't get seen by any of the teachers.
I power walked to the classroom where I was supposed to be registering the students. When I got there they had already managed to pick the lock to the door and the students were all sitting at their desks talking to one another. Larxene had been flirting with some guys at the back when she noticed me enter.
"Hey Sir, why are you so late and why are you all flustered? Your face is all red." The tone in her voice was sickly sweet and incredibly fake. She managed to convince the guys around her that she cared but it was obvious that she didn't, she just wanted to show me up. Now I needed to think of a reason why I'm late and why my face is red… wait…. why is my face red? I pressed one of my hands up against my cheek, it felt ragingly hot.
"Well you see I'm late because there was a lot of traffic and when I got here I had to uh, park at the back of the parking lot because all the good spaces had been taken." Well at least I'm not completely lying, I did park at the back. "And my face is all red because I had to run here, I didn't want to miss out on tutor time with all my lovely students." I smirked. That bitch isn't going to bring me down!
"Hmpf." Was her only response.
"All right everyone, settle down. I know I'm late but that doesn't mean you can screw around in my class!" I banged my hand down hard against my desk. The people standing up sat down in their places and the room went silent. That's more like it. I scanned the classroom; there was no sign of Axel…why did I care? I scowled to myself; he's probably just late.
As I registered the class there was still no sign of Axel. Maybe he had called in sick and wasn't in today. Or maybe he found Demyx and they were both bunking. Oh Demyx was so in for it if that was the case. The bell rang out signalling next lesson; the students packed up and shuffled around leaving the class.
The rest of the day was pretty boring. When it came round to lunch I slowly made my way down to the lunch hall. Of course, it was busy as hell. I spotted Demyx and Larxene sitting at a table with their friends, being stupid and throwing food at each other. I rolled my eyes at their stupidity although it was quite funny seeing Larxene being hit in the face with a half eaten ham sandwich. I wasn't in the mood to eat or drink anything so I snaked my way through the crowds and sat down at the table where teachers sat. Just my luck the only other person who was sitting at the table was the bundle of happiness or should I say unhappiness. Mr Strife. I sat down at the complete opposite end of the table to Cloud. He looked up from his food and nodded in my direction. Well at least he bothered to acknowledge me…I think that's what he's doing.
"Well aren't you feeling a little tense sweet-cheeks." I felt a pair of hands grab my shoulders. I turned to see who it was even though I knew all to well who's voice that belonged to.
"Xigbar get the fuck off me," I shook my shoulders in an attempt to make him let go of me.
"That's not very nice Roxas," he clicked his tongue against the roof of his mouth, making a disapproving sound.
"Why should I be nice to you …you're a creep!"
" Ya know," He ran a finger down my spine. He was molesting me in public! "I would appreciate it if you didn't call me such harsh names, like creep."
"Well maybe I wouldn't call you a creep, if you weren't one!" I stood up and pushed him away. "Now just leave me alone, I've had enough of your crap!" I snarled at him.
"Oh Roxas, don't be like that." He went to go and ruffle my hair but as if it was a natural reaction, I smacked his hand out of the way.
"What part of 'get the fuck off me' do you not understand?"
"Why you little fu-" He was furious.
"Xigbar. Stop that this instance. Roxas is only kid and it's quite obvious that he doesn't want to be touched by you." Cloud said in a stern voice. I wonder why he was sticking up for me. Even if he did call me a 'kid', I still appreciated what he was doing for me.
"Oh shut your trap hole Cloud." Xigbar mumbled as he wondered off into the crowds rubbing his hand where I had smacked him. I had a bad feeling that he still wouldn't leave me alone even if I begged him. Which of course I'm not going to, begging would probably make that creep happy. I turned to face Cloud who was still sitting down in his place staring at his macaroni cheese.
"Uhh, thanks for that Cloud." I said to him after Xigbar had left. Cloud didn't say anything he just poked his macaroni with his fork. "Cloud … you are a man of many words" I said sarcastically. He snorted loud enough so I could hear. I started to walk off back to my classroom when Cloud called out to me.
"Wait Roxas…" I turned my head to see Cloud's ocean blue eyes staring into mine.
"Huh? What do you want Cloud?" This guy had some weird mood swings.
"Why did you come to the lunch hall? You didn't want to eat or drink so why did come here? It would've been better off if you had stayed in your classroom by yourself." His gaze drifted back down to the macaroni that he was still poking with his fork.
"I uh…" I was lost for words; I really didn't know what to say.
"You know…us two…we're not so different." He stood up holding his plate of macaroni. "We don't want to be alone." He swiftly walked past me and went towards the bins.
Alone… I'm not alone anymore.
"What the fuck did they put in that macaroni?" I muttered to myself. And as if on queue the bell rang for the end of lunch.
I made my way back to the classroom before anyone else got there and stood outside waiting for the students to arrive. Five minutes later most of the student had made it on time so I let them in. Demyx was here, just as he had promised, but still there was no Axel. As the students made their way inside the class I grabbed Demyx by the arm and dragged him aside.
"Sup sir?" He said in his usual happy voice. I waited until everyone else was in the classroom before I spoke to him.
"Hey I was wondering…"For a moment, I wondered if this would make me seem like I was interested in Axel. I mean I most certainly was not. How could I be in love with a student, it was such a ridiculous idea. Even if he did have the most gorgeous emerald green eyes I'd ever seen.
"Yo! If you're going to start a sentence you may as well finish it!" The mullet head waved a hand in my face.
"Uh yeah well you see I was wondering if you knew where Axel was. It's just I haven't seen him in school today and well you being his best friend I thought you would know where he is." I looked down and shuffled my feet. I swear I saw a grin on Demyx's face.
"Well I do remember him calling me, he was going on about doing a job interview or something. I don't really remember what he said though…I was too busy playing my sitar." Demyx grinned sheepishly at me
"Demyx you really ought to pay more attention when people are talking to you." I pointed out. Demyx was staring out into the distance, completely oblivious to everything that was going on.
"Huuh?" Was his only reply.
"You know what never mind, just get to class" And with that I pushed him into the classroom and shut the door behind me.
I registered the class and scanned through my messages on the laptop the school had let me borrow. I had one new message; it was from principal Mansex I mean uh Xenmas. I read through the email, quickly picking out the important information, the rest of it was just junk. I closed the laptop and put it in its case.
"All right class, there's going to be a school dance in about five weeks time. There's no theme to it but you have to dress smartly. Also it's not optional. You have to go." I mentally groaned, if the students had to go then that means the teachers will probably have to go to. They would only have to go to make sure that the students weren't doing anything out of place. "You have to go, it's supposed to be a social event so that everyone can get together and have fun. Principal's orders. Now no complaining or I'll put your sorry ass in detention."
Most of the guys just groaned, they would probably prefer to stay at home and play video games or whatever. And I swear I heard some girls talking about how they were going to go shopping this weekend to buy their dresses. They had five weeks till the dance, five weeks! They didn't have to go shopping just yet! I let out a sigh; I will never be able to understand what goes on in a girls mind.
The bell rang, tutor time had ended. One hour until I'm out, one hour until I'm free!
"Have a good weekend everyone! Try not to act like fucking idiots!" I earned a few glares and snorts from the comment, but I couldn't care less.
I had a free period to myself. In the end I just marked the rest of the work I hadn't managed to mark this morning. As soon as the bell went I grabbed my stuff, rushed out of the classroom, locked the door and legged it to my car. I really didn't want to get caught in any traffic or bump into that creep Xigbar.
The roads were very clear and I managed to get home in record time. I swear on the way home I saw some teen with red flaming hair on a motorbike, ride through a red traffic light.
When I got home I dumped everything in my room and smiled to myself. It's finally the weekend!
Next day
Last night had been a good one; I had the whole evening to myself. I ended up watching horror movies and ordering pizza.
I moved my head, which was buried in pillows, to the side to check the time. It was already twelve! Although it felt good to have a lie in I had to be down at the ice-cream parlour for half past twelve. I hopped out of bed and began to get ready. Doing the usual stuff like showering and brushing my hair, I kept on checking to see how much time I had left.
I jumped down the stairs with excitement, I felt almost as if I was a child again…
"Daddy, daddy! Watch me jump down the stairs!" I jumped down the stairs, my cousin was coming over to play and he was going to be here any moment soon!
"Roxas please be careful!" My father's tone was cautioning and a worried expression flitted across his face every time I jumped down a stair. When I got to the bottom of the staircase he grinned at me and let out a sigh of relief.
I shook my head; I would not let memories of the past ruin my day out with my friends.
I went to the living room and found my secret stash of money I used for special occasions. After I took out the money I noticed there was a car pulling up in my driveway. It was a dark blue land rover; I instantly recognized the two figures inside the car. Olette was sitting in the passengers seat while Pence sat next to her in the drivers seat, I wonder where Hayner is? I grabbed my shoulder bag, slung it over my shoulder and walked out the door, locking it behind me. Olette jumped out of the car and came running towards me pulling me into a welcoming embrace.
"Roxas! Oh I've missed you so much!" The brunette squeezed me tightly.
"It's good to see you too Olette. I didn't know you were coming to pick me up." She let go and smiled happily. We both walked to the car and I got into the back.
"Yo Roxas!" Pence turned around in his seat and gave me a high-five. I smiled at him and returned the high-five.
"Hey Pence, how's it been?" It felt good to be talking with him, I don't think there was anything that could get me down. Pence was always so cheerful and happy, while Olette was kind and caring.
For example when Hayner thought it was funny to pull down my jeans while we were out shopping, Olette was kind, by finding Hayner (who had run off) and kicking his ass. Pence ended up happily laughing his butt off while I stood there completely embarrassed. I guess you could say Hayner was the corrupt one out of the group. But we all love him and his special ways. I smiled at the memory; it was probably one of the better ones, even if I did get humiliated in public.
"Everything's been good, just finished fixing this awesome Ferrari. Getting paid big bucks and the owner said I can take it out for a spin to make sure it works." Pence grinned. He worked in car mechanics and got to fix up all sorts of cars.
"Pence just hurry up and start the car! Hayner will be all whiney if we get there late." Olette said as she did her seatbelt up.
"Alright let's get going!" Pence hit the accelerator pedal and we went zooming off out of the driveway and down the road.
During the drive to the ice-cream parlour we talked about things that would bore Hayner. Hayner was the type that could talk for hours and hours about random crap. Like I said before he is the corrupt one. After about ten minutes of driving we arrived at the ice-cream parlour. The place was huge. The colours of the building were red and white striped. I could feel my eyes burning in their sockets. So damn bright! The building was an odd cone shape, with a large ice cream statue next to it and two smaller ones beside it.
"That's one odd looking building, don't you think," Pence mumbled as he stared up at the building.
"Dude watch the fuck where you're driving! You're going to get us killed!" Olette leant over and grabbed the steering wheel. We were about to hit a truck but luckily Olette managed to steer us to safety.
"Shit, uh sorry about that, thanks for saving us there Olette" He looked down, almost embarrassed.
"No problem-o, quick get in that space!" Olette swerved us into a free parking space, nearly crashing into an old lady in a car that was about to go into the space.
"Look who nearly killed us!" I laughed.
"Watch where you're going Olette." Pence sniggered.
"Shut it you two! Well at least we don't have to be driving around for hours on end looking for a space." Olette pouted and a small grin formed on her face.
"We won't have to look for a space, but that old lady you scared half to death will!" I pointed out. We all burst out laughing.
We got out the car grinning like idiots, clutching our stomachs from the pain of laughing so much. I don't remember the last time I felt this happy. We headed over to the odd shaped building.
The inside of the ice-cream was even brighter than the outside. The glossy clean tiles on the floor were red and white chequered while the walls were painted in a vast array of colours. Pictures of smiling employees and customers eating ice cream, lined the walls.
"HEY! ROXYPOODLEPANTYHOES!" A loud yell came from the other side of the room. I rolled my eyes and laughed at the ridiculous nickname, that only Hayner would give me.
"LONG TIME NO SEE HAYNERHOESLUTFUCKER!" I yelled back. We were the weirdest of friends. The names had meanings behind them. Maybe one day I will tell you but for now I wanted to spend time with my friends instead of looking back at the past. Even if they were good memories.
Hayner came dashing towards me and tackled me to the ground. I fell back and hit the floor with a loud thud.
"Roxiiieeee, I've missed you so much! And you haven'tgrown one centimetre since I last saw you. You're still the same shrimp I've always known!" Hayner had always been taller than me by at least two inches. Luckily my hair made me look that extra bit taller.
"And you're still the same annoying asshole I've always known." I shot back at him. What can I say? Best friends insult each other.
Hayner jumped off me and got up grinning stupidly. He held out a hand, which I grabbed and hauled myself up. I found myself being pulled into an unexpected hug.
"I really did miss you Roxas." Hayner whispered into my ear. I froze for a few seconds not really knowing what to do and after a moment relaxed into the hug.
"Alright, we know that you two are having a bromance moment, but I want to get my ice-cream." Olette split us up. A small grin appeared on her face. "SHOTGUN I GET WINDOW SEAT!" She yelled and rushed off to one of the tables by the window. The rest of us followed behind her walking to the table she had sat down at.
Pence claimed the other seat by the window, so he was sitting opposite Olette. I slid in next to Pence while Hayner sat opposite me, next to Olette. The light blue seats were more like a plush leather sofa. They were comfortable enough that I could probably sleep on one. Then again I can sleep anywhere and I mean anywhere.
"Lets have a look at the ice-creams they have." Olette said as she handed out the menus. I opened the menu and scanned down the list of different ice-creams. Raspberry swirl, Toffee crunch, Paopu fruit, Sea salt… Well I know what I'm having and I bet you can guess too. It seemed as if the others also knew what they were ordering too.
"So what are you guys having?" Olette asked.
"Sea salt ice-cream!" We all said simultaneously. Seriously Sea salt ice-cream was the next best thing to bacon. Damn me and my bacon fetish.
"I think it's about time we ordered then." Pence waved to get one of the waiter's attention. Seriously it was so busy here, nearly all the seats had been taken.
"May I take your order?" I wasn't particularly paying attention to the waiter; I was gazing out the window staring at the view.
"Four Sea salt ice-creams," Olette chimed.
"Well well well, I didn't know you had friends Roxas." I snapped out of my daze. Leaning against the table stood the tall redhead. A cocky smirk had appeared on his face.
"That's not a very nice way to treat your customer Axel." I retorted back at him. "And you need learn how to dress yourself properly." His top button was undone and his shirt was only half tucked in. I hopped out of my seat.
"I might not be able to dress myself, but at least I have a job now." Axel said almost triumphantly.
"Well if you dress like this, I'm pretty sure your boss will fire you for looking as scruffy as hell," I tucked his shirt in and went on my tiptoes to do his top button up for him. "There that's better don't you think?" I patted down his creased shirt and sat back down.
"Aww Rox you've always acted like the big momma bear. Hey Pence remember the time we all got wasted and then Hayner started throwing up everywhere, Roxas was the one who instantly came to Hayner's rescue. Even a drunk Roxie is a caring Roxie." Olette cooed.
"Boy do I remember those days, how on earth Hayner manage to get all that alcohol, only God knows!" Pence snorted.
Yes I was under aged and I know I shouldn't have been drinking. I just wanted the pain to fucking go away. Even at college the stabbing feeling of guilt was still there. The alcohol had helped to ease the pain away; of course it never truly left me. Sometimes I would wake up on the floor not even remembering what happened the night before. Even though it was just a phase, I still felt ashamed of doing it. I looked down not wanting to look at anyone in the eye.
"Hey, you ok there?" I felt a warm hand on my shoulder, Axel looked at me. He didn't look worried but a there was a glimmer of concern in his eyes.
"Y-Yeah, I guess." I managed a weak smile and fidgeted with the hem of my shirt.
"Sooo you know this guy?" Hayner jabbed his thumb in Axel's direction, though his gaze remained on me. I frowned at Hayner's rudeness towards Axel.
"Yeah I teach him, he's a student at the new school I work at."
"The name's Axel," he introduced himself, "A-X-E-L. Got it memorized?" I rolled my eyes and frowned again.
"With the amount of frowning you do, you'll be getting wrinkles by the time you're twenty!" Hayner laughed and flicked me on the forehead.
"Ouch, Hayneeer." I whined and rubbed the spot where he had flicked me. I'm not really the whiney type; I just really hate it when Hayner flicks me, even if it is just on the arm. When Hayner flicks me it hurts like a bitch.
"You two never change." Olette smiled.
"So that will be four Sea salt ice-creams coming right up. Good choice." I felt the warmth from Axel's hand leave my shoulder as he wrote down our orders and walked off.
"What's the deal with you two?" Pence asked as soon as Axel was out of earshot. "I never would've guessed you were teacher and student"
"He is just my student and I'm his teacher. Nothing more, nothing less. Anyway moving on from that subject, are you and Olette going out yet?" I wanted to get off the topic of Axel. Sure I guess I would count him as a friend in some sort of way, but for crying out loud I'd only known him a week! I turned my attention towards the embarrassed Pence and Olette.
"W-We started dating a last month." Olette managed to stutter out before turning the colour of a tomato.
"WOOT GO PENCE! You finally managed to get the girl you wanted, so have you banged her yet? Oh and Roxas you owe me ten dollars." Hayner was as blunt as anything.
"Hayner! You can't ask questions like that! It's rude!" Pence managed to say before he also turned the colour of a tomato.
"That means you've done it haven't you! I never thought you would lose your virginity before Roxas! I mean we all guessed you were going to lose it to Olette but still! Nice one!" Hayner jumped up and down in his seat like a retarded seal. And just at the very moment in time when Hayner just had to be talking about my virginity Axel had to be there to serve us our ice-creams.
"Did I hear just something I probably didn't want to know?" Axel said as he handed out the ice-creams.
"Well actually, seeing as how close you seem to be with Roxas," Hayner took a bite out of his ice-cream. "I bet it turns you on, the fact that no one has fucked his tight butt-hole." I could have died on the spot, melted into my chair with embarrassment. If I could have I would have punched Hayner in the jaw. Luckily I had Olette to do that for me. And what on earth had he meant by me being 'close' with Axel.
"Hayner, leave the poor kid alone!" She yelled at him as her fist connected with his jaw.
"The fuck was that for?" Hayner grunted.
"Well seeing as Roxas has yet to lose his virginity, am I right Rox, you're still a virgin?" I nodded my head, sinking down even more in my seat. "As I was saying, unlike you Hayner, Roxas is waiting for the right person instead of sleeping with every slut he can get his hands on. And I'm proud of him for that." I think that Olette's announcement was supposed to make me feel better but I still just wanted to evaporate into thin air. Let me also clear one thing up for you, ever since Hayner turned fifteen his sex hormones had blown up. He would go round sleeping with everyone he could. I don't think he's as bad now but I will never be sure.
Axel drummed his fingers against the table.
"Hayner, why it seems as if you're jealous that I get to see Roxas nearly everyday of the week. Now I wonder why that might be?" Axel grinned slyly. I guess you could say I was as dense as a brick, because I had no idea what was going on. Hayner's expression darkened.
"Axel don't wind Hayner up, Olette only just calmed him down." I interjected before Hayner had enough time to reply back. I've seen Hayner angry and trust me it's not a pretty site. "You're still working aren't you? Why don't you go and serve some other people." I felt bad for trying to push the redhead away but I could see that Hayner was itching to get at Axel's neck and rip his throat out.
"Well technically my shift starts at three and ends at four thirty but I'm working extra time to get the extra money because I'm good like that." I couldn't help but smile in amusement at Axel's comment. "I'll leave you guys to eat your ice-creams, enjoy! See you on Monday Rox." Axel got the hint and walked off.
"Ah shit, it's cold!" I said as I bit down on my ice-cream.
"Well done Captain Obvious, it is an ice-cream!" Hayner cracked a smile. The tension that had been there a few seconds ago was now completely gone. I loved my friends, I really did. I told them everything, even stuff about my past. They had my backs and I had theirs.
After we had finished Hayner insisted that he would go up and pay. I said I'd go and do it but he insisted that he wanted to pay. He got up and went to the counter where people paid. One of the reasons I wanted to go and do it was because Axel was near by and I didn't want the two of them wringing each others necks. Hayner came back to the table, digging his wallet into his back pocket.
"Well as much as I hate to say it, I think it's time to leave." We all agreed with him and got up.
"Today was a good day, we should meet up more often." Olette said, it sounded as if she wanted us to be together like we were in college. The unbreakable foursome. As cheesy as it sounds it was true, nothing could tear us apart. Yeah we would have arguments within our group but we always stayed together.
See, the four of us were kind of weird in our own special way, when we were younger. I was twelve when I met them, had recently just become an orphan and landed in a shit-hole orphanage. I'd wanted out as soon as possible so, when I heard about the college that specialized in kids who had potential, I immediately signed up. I hate to big myself up but I knew that I wasn't the 'average' child. I was accepted and there, I met Olette, Pence and Hayner. They were thirteen some of the youngest students in the college. Technically I had been too young to join, and so I had to buy my way in. Because I had been so young many people turned their backs to me. But Olette, Pence and Hayner accepted me. Not out of sympathy but for who I was.
"We should, shouldn't we?" Pence grabbed her by the hand and held it in his.
"Hey Rox, seeing as the two lovebirds here will probably want to spend some alone time together, how about I drive you home?" Hayner offered as we approached the cars.
"I live about twenty minutes away from here, I can just walk it." I would feel bad if I made Hayner drive me home seeing as he lived in the opposite direction.
"Are you rejecting me Roxas?" Hayner began to fake cry, "Ohhh I feel so unloved! This world is so cruel!" He wailed throwing his hands up in the air.
"Yes Hayner the world is so cruel and you are so unloved. If I come with you will you stop acting like such a dofus?" It was probably the only way to shut him up.
We said our goodbyes and parted our own ways. I got into the front passenger next to Hayner. I was about to break the silence but he seemed to be concentrating on something else. The journey back to my house had been surprisingly quiet. When we got back I offered to let him in but he just declined. My instinct was telling me that something was bothering him but I wasn't going to bug him about it.
"We definitely need to meet up more often, see you around." I said as I was closing the door.
"Uh, Roxas wait!" He quickly grabbed the door before I could close it. "I just wanted to let you know that…" He let go of the door and ran a hand through his dirty blond hair. "Um never mind maybe I'll tell you some other time. I'll see you soon!" He waved goodbye and ran off back into his car.
I wonder what he wanted to tell me. Oh well it will just have to wait.
I hope you enjoyed reading this because I definitely enjoyed writing this chapter. I didn't know what age to make Roxas a drunk tard so I'm leaving it up to you to decide, let your imagination take you away and such. I realised that when I was writing about how the guys would want to stay at home and play video games I also would want to stay at home. Yes now that I mention it , I'm looking forward to writing about the dance. Not going to write it out just yet , you're just going to have to wait a few chapters. ANYWAYS I really do hope you enjoyed this chapter. Reviews make me happy :D Peace out~
