When we arrived at the hospital we went straight into the Accident and Emergency Department. Axel grabbed a form from the desk and proceeded to ask me questions from it. He had to fill it out because I could barely move my arm. The form took forever to fill out but when it was finally done Axel handed the form back in to the woman behind the desk.

"I'll be right back okay? I just have to go back to Demyx's and talk to him for a short while. I'll be back in about 30 minutes okay?" He smiled.

I nodded. He kissed my forehead and left the hospital.

About 45 minutes later I saw Axel arrive back through the doors. Although he was late, I couldn't help but smile when he came back. When he sat back down next to me I caught him glancing at my arm. He looked worried but swiftly looked away when he saw me watching him. I simply sighed.

"It'll be fine Axe don't worry." I smiled.

"Does any of this seem fine to you?!" He raised his voice slightly whilst gesturing to my arm which startled me a little. He noticed this and gave me a sympathetic look.

"I'm sorry Rox. I shouldn't be shouting at you in your condition." He sighed. I smiled slightly at the way he had worded his sentence.

"I'm not pregnant?" I laughed. Axel could not help but smile beside me.

"Shush you! You're ill. You don't get to make to make me laugh when I'm worried about you." He smiled jokingly.

"That's what I'm supposed to do! You worry too much! I'll be fine!" I assured him. I think he gave in as he nodded and lay his head gently on my shoulder.

"I'm so angry though. If it weren't for Seifer…" He sighed.

"I'm the one who punched him!" I reminded him.

He lifted his head swiftly off my shoulder and pressed his forehead to mine whilst holding my face in his hands.

"If he wouldn't of called you that word then you wouldn't of punched his sorry ass!" He reminded me.

I pulled my face from his hands and looked away. He had a puzzled expression painted across his face.

"What's the matter Rox?" He asked.

"I just…I don't like words like that being used in such a negative way." I sighed wishing that none of this ever happened.

Axel hugged me gently watching my arm as he did so making sure not to go near it.

"Me neither Rox…Me neither…But like I said to you before: Don't get mad, get even" He smiled slightly.

"You know it really scares me when you say that" I smiled.

"Oh? Why's that?" He asked.

"Because, Axe; whenever you say that a creepy grin comes across your face like you're imagining just how to get back at him." I informed.

He looked slightly happy with himself.

"Does it? That's hilarious! You should take a picture some day" He smiled.

I simply shook my head sarcastically.

"Just let karma take care of Seifer. He'll get what he deserves." I smiled.

"I'm not always so sure that karma gets the bad guys Rox" He sighed again looking at my arm.

I must admit it was a fair point he was making. Seifer beat me to shit, called me a faggot, smashed Axel's car and yet no karma had come for him.

"It works slowly but surely." I smiled.

He let out a contemplating "hmmm".

"Besides we kind of have to thank him in some ways…" I gazed in front of me at the leaflets on the wall.

He looked confused and followed my gaze.

"And why is that?" He asked sounding more confused than ever before.

"Because without him…we wouldn't have each other." I reminded him.

This shocked him slightly as he sat back in his chair and wiped his hand across his face.

"Man…I guess you're right…Maybe that's why he hates us…" He thought.

"What do you mean?" I asked. Now I was confused.

"Think about it. We made him do something good. So now he has to undo the good he did by being twice as bad to us?" He informed me.

I smiled at how much thought he was putting into this. I let out a slight laugh as I imagined cogs working in Axel's head.

"Haha! Of course! That must be the reason!" I played along sarcastically.

He put his hands behind his head.

"Ahh well. Guess we'll just have to love each other twice as much" He winked.

I laughed before realising what he had just said.

"You…Did you just say you loved me in a weird way?" I asked confused.

"No…I don't think I did?" He said confused.

"Oh. Because it sounded like you kinda did…" I smiled.

"I'm pretty sure I didn't Rox…" He closed his eyes waiting for my response.

"Really?" I asked.

"Really." He replied bluntly.

"Oh." I said now disappointed in some way.

He opened one eye to look at me and then sat upright with his arms folded. He turned to me.

"Look, Rox-" He was going to give me some bullshit but I was not about to let that happen.

"No. Save it okay?" I sighed feeling stupid.

"All I was gonna say was-" I cut him off again I really didn't want to hear it.

"Axel, I don't care." I was somewhat angry. I felt stupid for being so angry but I couldn't help it.

"ROX! Can you stop being harsh? I'm here aren't I? I'm the only on here for you! I always will be!" He shouted.

People started to stare at us. I hated it. However, some stuff needed to be said. I stood up becoming prepared to walk away.

"Not always! How the fuck can you be?! If you don't love someone then what's the point in being with them?!" I shouted.

He stood up after that to shout at me more I was guessing.

"OH MY GOD! WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?! ALL BECAUSE I WON'T SAY THAT I LOVE YOU YOU'RE THROWING A HISSY FIT?! GROW UP ROXAS! LIFE IS NOT A BED OF ROSES!" He screamed.

That one hurt. I knew it was no bed of roses. So did he. We both had shitty pasts but the fact that he could give that line to me was pretty low.

"Don't you think I know that?" I sighed. I sat back down and Axel joined me.

"I'm sorry Rox. Some things take time…" he sighed.

I simply nodded. I noticed that we had gathered quite an audience. The security was pretty high around us and members of the public who were also waiting were all staring at us. I shut my eyes tightly hoping for it all to go away.

Then I heard the great sound! "Roxas and Axel?" I heard a woman say.

I turned around to see a doctor.

"This way please" She smiled.

I shot up to follow her.

I followed her until we got the X-ray room.

"Okay so if you just want to wait here while I set up in there?" She smiled.

I nodded and she headed into the room. Me and Axel sat in silence for the next 5 minutes before she called me in.

"So just put your arm here for me" She directed as I did what she said.

It felt like it was over in minutes.

"Okay so if you want to wait outside for me and I will go and get your X-rays" She smiled and she walked away.

I was feeling impatient anyway. I was feeling nervous and agitated. My arm genuinely looked like it was going to fall off. I have no idea why it hurt so much or why it looked that way. I was almost positive I didn't hit Seifer that hard! As I pondered my thought Axel sat quietly. I didn't know what to say so I didn't say anything. We sat there in silence waiting. Waiting until the X-rays came back. I had a feeling it was going to be a long day…
