A/N: And here is Chapter 4. It's one of my favorites out of the chapters I've uploaded so far. Anyway, once you've read it, if you will just give me a little review telling me what you thought about it. Seeing as I don't know how many actually ship these two together. I just love the idea of them, which is the reason why I started writing this story in the first place. Anyway, I'll probably upload Chapter 5 after I've received a few reviews. I'm not actually sure if anyone reads this just, yet. Enjoy. :)

Chapter 4: Safe

The next day, I woke up to what I thought to be morning. I wasn't sure since he didn't have a clock in his room. The last thing I remembered before going to sleep last night was him saying he'd stay on his side. Well, that changed once I woke up and noticed his arms around me. I started panicking thinking he would wake up and see the position that we were in. Any movement would probably wake him up so, I was pretty much stuck like this until he woke up. Well, I guess this breaks the rule of staying on our sides. But on the other hand, I found myself feeling completely safe in his arms. Like nothing could ever get me. Unless it was Axel, himself. And warmth. Safe and warm. I smiled.

"Morning." He said.

I looked over at him and said, "So, what happened to staying on our sides, Axel?"

His emerald eyes pierced into mine before looking down and realizing the position we were in. He quickly unwound his arms from my body.

"Oops. Um, yeah. Sorry, about that." He said and laughed awkwardly.

"Never mind that. It's fine. I'm sure you kept me from being cold during the night." I said. 'What the hell, did I just say? Shut up, Kairi. Shut up.'

"Is that so? Well, then I might just have to keep it that way." He smiled and moved his arms back around me.

'Yeah, you shouldn't have said that. Stupid, Kairi. Stupid. Stupid. Stupid! But oh, so warm and safe.' I shook the thought out of my mind.

And I pushed his arms away from me and got out of the bed.

"What are you doing?" He asked.

"Making sure a very bad mistake doesn't happen," I replied.

"Oh? And what would that be?" He eyed me curiously.

"I think you know, Axel." I said through clenched teeth.

"Whoa. Alright, alright. No need to get angry with me." He said raising his hands up in defense.

"And just what do you plan to do with me?" I asked placing my hands on my hips.

"What do you want me to do with you?" He winked.

"Are you going to take me to Sora?" I questioned him.

"Actually no, he'll eventually find you. In all due time." He smirked.

"So what is it that I am suppose to do until he comes to find me?" My eyes narrowed at him.

"Kairi, I thought you would have figured that out on your own. Maybe, I underestimated you." He shrugged.

"What do you mean? Underestimated me? You didn't actually think I would stay here with you willingly, did you?" I asked.

"Honestly, I had hoped that you would want to what with being all alone on your island. Unless you want me to take you back?"

'Alright so, maybe he just really wants me around for company. Maybe, I am truly safe here with him," I thought.

"Well? Have you decided, yet?" He asked impatiently, "It's best not to keep others waiting."

I gulped, "Alright, fine. I'll stay. Only because you're right about how lonely it is back at my home island."

"Great!" He said excitedly and hoped out of bed. "Now, I'm sure you're wondering what to do for a clean change of clothes, yes?" He asked.

"I should hope so," I said and looked down at my clothes I was currently wearing.

He walked over to his closet and pulled out some folded clean clothes and handed them to me.

"Are these...?" I gasped and looked up at him. "My clothes from home?"

"I told you that you fascinate me. So, of course I would have some replicas of your clothes waiting here for you." He smiled.

"Because that's not creepy at all." I shook my head.

"Anyway, I'll go get us some breakfast while you change." He said before heading out of the room.

"This is impossible." I said to myself out loud and shook my head.

I quickly shrugged out of my clothes of yesterday. And put on the clothes Axel had handed to me.

Axel came back into the room with a large tray of food and sat it on his drawing desk.

"Now, the only thing I wasn't sure about was food. I have no idea what you like to eat. So, I just got a few things." He shrugged.

"Well, that's interesting. Usually I'll eat anything. Toast and butter is fine for now. I'm not that hungry, anyway. Thank you." I smiled at him.

He smiled back and said, "You're welcome."

I grabbed a plate and grabbed a piece of toast and put butter on it before eating it.

We sat there in silence while I ate until I noticed he wasn't eating anything.

"Aren't you going to eat, too?" I asked him.

He shook his head, "Nope, not hungry."

"Oh. Okay," was all I said.

When I finally finished eating, he took the tray back into the kitchen then came back into the room.

"So, how about a tour of the castle?" he asked.

"Oh, um.. Okay, sure." I said and got up from the bed and headed towards the door.

He opened it for me like a gentleman and motioned me out the door.

We walked down the long hallway until we reached the grand staircase.

"So, where will it be first?" he asked.

"How many rooms does the castle have, anyway?" I asked curiously.

"Well, it's has three floors. The first floor has this huge room for social gatherings, a bathroom for guests, a huge dining room for meals on special occasions, a bar and a huge kitchen. The second floor has all of the bedrooms, it's kinda like a hotel and each room has a bathroom of it's own. And the third floor has this gigantic library full of books and articles."

"Wow." I said with wide eyes, "and how many rooms is that exactly?"

"Twenty to be exact," he said, "so where to first?"

"How about the library?" I looked up at him smiling.

"How did I know? Of course, the library is always first," he smiled back.

"Well, I do love reading books," I shrugged.

"To the library it is," he said and he lead me up the long staircase towards the library.
