When the nurse came back with the X-rays she smiled. I was so nervous I didn't even know whether to smile back or not. She could see this and clearly handed me my X-rays. I looked at them blankly wondering what exactly I was supposed to be looking at...
"Do you see?" She asked.
"Huh?" I questioned feeling stupid.
Axel simply smiled at my confusion. I didn't know whether he was smiling because he thought it was cute or if he was smiling because he understood what I clearly did not.
"Nothing there" She smiled.
I heard Axel give a sigh of relief as I gave her a puzzling look.
"Excuse me?" I was still confused.
She simply giggled at my stupidity.
"There's no break, chip or fracture" She smiled.
I simply turned to Axel still with a confused look on my face.
"Your arm has no long term damage Rox." He smiled.
I smiled back at him glad to hear some good news. Then I became confused again and turned back to the nurse. I was still wondering why my arm was almost black if I had no fracturing, chips or broken bones.
"So what has happened to my arm? Why does it look like this?" I asked her looking down at the sorry excuse for a limb.
"It's incredibly bruised I'm afraid but as long as you keep yourself well rested and keep a bag of ice on there for up to 4 hours daily then you should be fine." She smiled.
I nodded in understanding. It still hurt but it explained quite a lot.
"Is there anything else I can help you with?" She smiled.
I simply shook my head knowing that she had other patients to attend to.
"No that's great. Thank you." I smiled.
She smiled back and walked away to see to her other patients. I turned to Axel to see his joyous smile.
"I'm so glad your okay Rox" he kissed my cheek gently.
I couldn't tell if we were still in a fight but I didn't speak. He held his hand out for my good arm to help me up but I simply ignored him and got up on my own. I walked out of the hospital and to the car. We didn't speak at all on the drive home.
When we arrived at the house I unlocked the door and put the keys on the side.
"You can lock up" Was the only thing I said before venturing upstairs.
"Rox?" I heard him call after me but I didn't turn to face him.
When I got to the top of the stairs I went to open my room door when I heard him shout louder.
"ROXAS WAIT!" He shouted but I had already opened the door.
I turned the light on and stared at the bed in shock. I heard Axel's footsteps following me to the room.
"I wanted it to be a surprise" He sighed.
I stared at the bed. Spelled out in rose petals was 'I Love You'. I felt like such a dick. I turned to face him.
"When?" I asked still in shock.
"I told you I was going to Demyx's" He half smiled.
I was disappointed with myself more than anything. I didn't know what to do. I was in the wrong and I may have even fucked up the one good thing to happen to me. I turned to look at the gorgeous lay out again.
"Axe…" I breathed.
"Look Rox…I know I said life's no bed of roses…but I thought maybe together…it could be…" He sighed.
I froze. I had been such an asshole. He had been putting on an act trying to surprise me when we got back and instead I had taken it seriously. I turned to face him again. I had tears in my eyes. It was the nicest and sweetest thing anyone had ever done for me. I wrapped my arms around him slowly and rested my head on his chest.
"I Love You too" I smiled.
I felt his arms slowly begin to wrap around me.
"I know Rox, I know" He kissed the top of my head before lifting up my chin to kiss me on the lips. It was short and sweet.
"There's something wrong with me isn't there?" I asked starting to cry into his shirt.
"No, no! Shh, shh, shh, shh baby. It's okay" He comforted.
"No it's not!" I cried.
"I'm so horrible and I'm an awful person and I don't deserve you" I cried.
I felt his soft touch on my hair.
"You mean everything to me Roxas. Without you I would be nothing" He smiled.
"You mean it?" I asked with tears still pouring from my eyes.
"I really do. If you want to go to counselling Rox then they will give you a psychological assessment to see if there really is anything wrong and you can take it from there. Does that sound good?" He smiled.
I took his idea into account and thought about it for a moment. It probably would help me. I looked up at him and nodded. He kissed my gently.
"You'll be there to support me right?" I asked.
He smiled down at me.
"Every step of the way" He smiled.
Again he kissed me on the lips before we got ready for bed. He found a number on the internet for a local counselling service and we booked an appointment for the next day. When we went to bed I was both nervous and excited for the next day. I wasn't sure what they would find but I hoped they could help me in some way. As I turned over to face my gorgeous boyfriend I smiled.
"Get some sleep baby I'll watch over you until you sleep" He smiled.
I turned over as he spooned me. I couldn't help but feel slightly turned on by this. I snuggled my back into his chest as I heard a small chuckle come from him. He turned the bedside lamp off.
"Good night Rox" He kissed my cheek before continuing to spoon me.
"Nighty night Axe" I smiled before dropping off to sleep.
