What If…

Axel and Roxas are instructed to set up the fireworks

for the Twilight Town Midsummer Festival?

(as suggested by the lovely xFluffyFangx)

Axel and Roxas sighed collectively as they endured their "mission" in Twilight Town. Heartless control in Twilight Town was not needed, and Axel and Roxas were only assigned here as punishment for their usual pranks and schemes that occur in the castle. Not that either minded, really. It was just an excuse to sit around and do nothing but eat Sea Salt flavored ice cream.

Today however, the ice cream stand was closed due to preparations for some "festival" thing, which left Axel and Roxas with nothing to do but watch the busy townsfolk run around.

"I'm bored," Axel said, blowing a flyaway hair out of his face.

"Me too," Roxas sighed, continuing his sport of people watching. "I wonder what's going on…?"

"You don't know what's going on?!" Roxas and Axel jumped at the voice behind them. They turned around to see who they knew to be the mayor of Twilight Town. Lucikly, Roxas and Axel vaguely remembered something about acting as travelers when confronted by a townsperson. "Why, haven't you ever heard of the Twilight Town Midsummer Festival before?"

"We've only just arrived here from—" Roxas stopped short, frowning to think of a location.

"…Somewhere else," Axel finished lamely. Then, his eyes took on a devious glint. "But we could help if you needed us. We've participated in festivals before."

Roxas looked at him, stunned, but said nothing as the surprised mayor asked, "Really? What could you help us with?" The mayor thought for a moment. "Fireworks, perhaps?"

Axel grinned wider. "My specialty. Just show us where they are and we'll begin setting them up in their proper location."

Roxas was white as a sheet as he and Axel were dragged off in the general direction of an open field in Sunset Terrace.

-------((oh dear!))---------

"We could help if you need us, he says," Roxas mimicked as he attempted to stick a firework into he ground in vain. "We've participated in festivals before… just why in hell did you feed him such bullshit?" Frustrated, Roxas threw the firework to the ground, glaring at it accusingly.

Axel looked very secretive in his firework pile, pulling chords and twisting some together. "Oh come on Roxas," he said distractedly, "you said you were bored! Besides," he paused at his work to grin at Roxas, "you seriously think that I, the master of all things related to fire and pyrotechnics, have never messed with and or set of fireworks before? Please. This is child's play," he finished, continuing on his work.

Roxas sighed. "You could at least tell me what to do."

"In a minute."

Roxas looked suspicious. "…What are you doing over there anyway? I don't think we were supposed to tamper with the fireworks…"

Axel immediately covered the bundle of fireworks in front of him. "Nothing! I'm not doing anything to them!" Putting down his pile, he walked over to Roxas and his pile. "You want me to show you how to set them up? Fine, first you put this part in the ground…"

---------((fast foreward!))-------

"Almost time for the fireworks!" Axel grinned as he finished final preparations with Roxas. "These folk won't know what hit them…" he muttered.

"How is it going you two?" Axel stiffened when the mayor appeared, inspecting the fireworks. "It looks like everything is in order, although I have never had any experience with fireworks myself…" Axel visibly relaxed at this, and smiled reassuringly at the mayor.

"Everything is perfectly fine, sir, whenever you give us the signal we shall set off the fireworks."

"Oh you'll know when," grinned the mayor, "it will be announced over the loudspeakers."

"Perfect," Axel smiled and shook the mayor's hand before he walked away. Roxas, however, did not miss the devious glint in Axel's eye.

"What are you plotting? There's something going on in that head of yours…" Roxas looked over at the grinning Axel as he neared Roxas.

"Why nothing of course! I just want to see the fireworks," he whispered as he stepped into Roxas, enfolding him in his embrace. "Perhaps you could give me a little preview…?" Roxas smirked at him before reaching up and sealing his lips over Axel's.

The kiss quickly turned into something deeper as Axel angled his lips over Roxas' and slipped his tongue into his mouth. As the two battled for dominance, Axel lowered Roxas to the floor, covering his body with his own.

Axel trailed kisses down Roxas' jawline, and Roxas gasped as he tried in vain to pay attention to the surroundings. He vaguely heard the mayor talking, and saying something about fireworks and now, Roxas figured it was a good time to tell Axel to start the fireworks show. However, he couldn't get his mouth to obey the 'Speak' command. 'Make Out with Axel' sure, but that was the only command available at the moment.

Luckily, Axel heard the same thing, and reached backwards to snap his fingers, lighting the fuse that began the fireworks show.

As Axel's hands roamed over Roxas' chest, and his kisses pressed on lower, Roxas had a clear view of the fireworks overhead.

"Axel…" Roxas muttered as Axel pushed his shirt up. Roxas noticed vaguely that the fireworks were saying something to him, and he thought he was hallucinating until he read them again.

"AXEL!" he whispered harshly, sitting up. "What the fuck did you do to the fireworks?" Axel grinned pointing upwards.

Roxas looked up again, growling at the message of AXEL LOVES ROXAS adorned with many hearts looking back at him. "You do realize that we're dead now, right?"

"Sure," Axel shrugged halfheartedly, "but that doesn't mean you don't get to reply to my confession…" he muttered, pulling Roxas into an embrace.

"Of course I love you, dumbass," Roxas said, kissing him quickly on the lips. The mob coming closer in his peripheral vision, however, ruined the moment. "Because of you we won't be able to come back here for a few months," Roxas muttered.

"So!" Axel stated proudly, "we can just be little angels at the castle and stay in my bedroom in our free time…" he winked.

Roxas sighed and opened a portal for them. "Come on," he muttered, taking Axel's hand as they stepped through towards home.

---------------

Could not RESIST the fireworks pickup line. xP But this one was quite difficult to think of something to do actually. But I think its sufficient.

NOW….YOU ALL KNOW THE DRILL MY DARLINGS!

LEAVE ME LOTS OF LOVE. KTHX.
