What If…

Axel and Roxas met in the next lifetime?

((as suggested by the lurvely firelid))

"You're lucky. Looks like my summer vacation is…over."

…

"Axel? What were you trying to do?"

"I wanted to see Roxas. He…was the only one I liked. He made me feel…like I had a heart. It's kind of funny…you make me feel…the same."

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

"Help! Help! My workshop!" A distressed woman called out as she watched her store go up in flames.

Sirens were heard as a fire truck approached the scene. A lean fireman leapt out, toting a hose behind him. "Don't worry m'am," he said reassuringly as his team quickly and efficiently controlled the fire and slowly reduced it to a quiet smolder. "Everything will be alright."

"But my business!" The distressed woman fretted.

The fireman chuckled. "I'm sure insurance will take care of it. What kind of business was it?"

"I'm a locksmith," the woman explained, "And I don't think that I have that much insurance…"

The fireman patted her head. "Don't worry, it'll be fine. Just be happy you're safe."

The woman nodded. "Thank you for doing what you could. What's your name?"

The fireman watched the smolders and, seeing that they were under control, took off his bright yellow hat and gloves. The man had spiked black hair with sharp red streaks and piercing green eyes. "I'm Alex," he said, sticking out his hand.

The woman smiled brightly. "I'm Roxanne!" She said, bubbly shaking his hand. As she shook his hand, she noticed a teardrop tattoo on the top of his hand. "That's an interesting tattoo…"

Alex agreed. "I know, right? I got them when I was a teenager…"

Suddenly, Roxanne's vision changed from the current scene to a stark white cafeteria…

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

"Those are interesting tattoos under your eyes, Number VIII," Roxas said as he offhandedly began eating his bacon.

"Call me Axel, got it memorized?" Axel said grinning, "But yeah, aren't they? My Somebody got them when he was a teenager…"

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

Roxanne blinked, again focusing on the smiling fireman before her. "Sorry," she said to his questioning look. "I spaced out there for a moment…Anyway," she continued casually, "I owe you for saving my workshop...I live right behind it, my house would have been next."

Alex smiled, putting his hands out in front of him. "You owe me nothing. I was just doing my job."

"Can I at least make you dinner? Or would your wife be mad?"

Alex laughed. "I'm sure she would be if I had one. But…I'm gay, so I guess the point is rather redundant. Still want me for dinner?"

Roxanne laughed. "Of course."

Alex smiled. "I'll come by tomorrow."

Roxanne nodded. "Great! I'll see you then."

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

Axel…Roxanne thought, toweling her long blonde hair as she tied it loosely back in a ponytail. "Where do I remember that from?" she asked herself, stepping out in front of the mirror behind the door as she wrapped a towel around her waist.

"Ugh…" she grimaced, looking at her reflection in the mirror. "You'd think that after dressing as a woman for two years would make me look more feminine…"

'Roxanne' looked over his toned physique in dismay as he heard the doorbell ring. Shit! He cursed, hurriedly running into his bedroom and getting ready. In under three minutes, she was at the door, smiling as Alex walked into the entrance way, carrying a tin of cookies.

"I figured I should at least bring something," he said, offering her the cookies.

"Thanks!" Roxanne said happily, happily accepting the cookies and taking them into the kitchen. "Come one! I'll give you a tour…"

"Alright…Rox," Alex said, smiling. Suddenly, his vision changed from her warmly painted kitchen to a standard-sized bedroom…

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

"Roxas huh?" Axel said, laying back on his bed as Roxas sat in front of it watching the television. "I think you need a nickname."

"Give me one and die," Roxas said shortly.

"Oh come on!" Axel said, smiling, "It could be fun…Roxy."

"No."

"How about Rox? It's not too feminine. It's kind of manly…"

Roxas sighed as he changed the channel. "Fine."

"Yay!" Axel said, hugging him from above. "Thanks, Roxy."

"Shut up!"

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

"Roxas…" Alex muttered quietly as Roxanne arranged the cookies on a plate. She froze in place, turning to look up at him slowly, as if she was plagued by the same thing he was.

"What did you just say?" she asked quietly.

"Oh, nothing," he said offhandedly, waving the strange occurrence away. He looked around for a change of subject. "Do you need any help with dinner?" he asked.

Roxanne smiled. "Nope! It's already set on the table," she said, leading him to her small dining room.

Alex sat down across from her after pulling out her chair. "This looks delicious," he said, commenting on her chicken parmesan and spaghetti.

"So…" Alex started, looking up from his meal at Roxanne. "That's a lovely necklace you have," he commented, gesturing at her silver chain dangling over her blouse.

Roxanne looked down, pulling up so she could see. "Thank you," she said, "I made it myself in my workshop. I felt compelled toward its design. It's shaped like a key," she continued, taking it off so he could see it. "Take a look."

Alex examined the necklace, intrigued by the handle-like top and the pointed edges. "It could almost be a weapon," he commented.

Roxanne nodded absently, as he was plagued with another vision of a strange weapon-like key before him…

-----------

"What…What is this thing?"

"The Heartless have great fear of the Keyblade."

"That's right. The Keyblade."

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

Roxanne shook himself, smiling over at Axel, who was holding out the necklace for her. "Thanks," she said quietly, reclasping the necklace. Needing to change the subject away from the necklace, she asked him about his work.

"What made you pick firefighting?" she inquired.

"Hmmm…" Alex said, thinking. "Ever since I was little, I have had this…fascination with fire. I decided I should put it to good use," he finished, taking a bite of his chicken.

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

"You control fire?" Roxas asked him, shock only slightly evident in his voice.

"Sure do," Axel said, gloating. "It's very effective."

Roxas looked slightly downcast. "I'll never learn how to use this damn Keyblade," he said exasperatedly. "It feels like I've just…forgotten."

Axel laughed as he turned towards him, giving him plenty of space in the practice room.

"You just have to relax," he said, spreading his arms. "Go on, hit me."

Roxas sighed, charging at him. Axel was ready to easily parry his move when he pivoted abruptly, hitting Axel in the side. Axel had the wind knocked out of him, and he was taken down by Roxas' momentum.

"Nice one," Axel said softly as Roxas lay on top of him.

"Oh, um…sorry…" Roxas said, starting to get up.

"That was fine…" Axel muttered, holding Roxas in place. "This is better…" he finished, kissing him softly.

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

Alex locked eyes with Roxanne, confused. "Did you see that?" he asked, serious.

"See what?" Roxanne said, chuckling. Alex picked up a rather nervous tint to it, however.

"You did!" Alex said, leaning forward. "Do you know what it is?"

Roxanne shook her head. "I …I have to go to the bathroom," she said, abruptly standing up. Alex stood up as well, crossing the small distance, grabbing her by the arm and pulling. Roxanne lost her balance, falling against him as she turned.

"Dammit Axel!" she yelled in a distinctly lower timbre. Alex's eyes widened as she clapped a hand over her mouth, pulling away from him.

"Axel…?" he murmured, looking away from her. Why does that sound right? More importantly…

"You're not a woman?" he asked slowly.

Roxanne slowly shook her head. "….No," he admitted, looking away. "My name's Ross. I've been cross-dressing for a couple of years."

"Why?"

Ross shrugged. "I dunno, I was just…bored. I needed something interesting to do. Mystery. Intrigue."

"Secret identities?" Alex continued, raising an eyebrow. "I'm still calling you Rox…" he said quietly. "It fits."

Ross nodded absently.

Alex looked at him seriously. "Do you know anything about that…vision?"

Ross shook his head. "I just…I've been having them too. Ever since I met you, I keep seeing this…Axel character. He looks kind of like you…Its freaking me out. I need to change," he said, turning towards his bedroom. "The living room is that way," he pointed, "I'll be right there."

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

Alex looked up from the couch as Ross entered the room. His eyes widened as he looked at him. His hair was spiked casually, giving his fierce blue eyes a less gentle look. Damn, Alex thought, slowly admiring this new person before him.

"You look great, Roxas," Alex said offhandedly. As soon as the name came out of his mouth, he did a double take.

"Roxas?" Ross said, eyebrow raised. "That sounds…familiar…" He shook his head, sitting down next to Alex. "Anyway, I'm sorry for this…crazy affair," he said, laughing slightly.

"It's been quite interesting," Alex admitted.

"I don't think you'll see me again," Ross continued, "I'm leaving this town to start my business elsewhere. Business has been slow anyways. It's time for a new place."

Although Alex had known him for scarcely a day, he felt alarmed. "What? Don't!"

"Why?" Ross asked. "No one will miss me."

"I would," Alex said automatically. He blinked. "I have no idea where that came from."

Ross sighed. "We're hopeless."

Alex laughed. "Or just slightly inebriated. What did you put in that chicken?" Ross laughed, leaning closer to him.

"Whatever the recipe called for. Sure, it might have asked for a little wine…" Ross suddenly had an idea. "Hey! My roof is the perfect place for star-gazing. Let's go up!"

Alex nodded and followed him up the stairs.

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

"It's perfect…." Alex muttered, leaning back with Ross on the roof as they watched the stars.

"Too bad you forgot the ice cream," Ross said automatically.

Axel looked over at him, eyes widening. "What--?"

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

"It's perfect," Axel muttered softly, sitting with his arm around Roxas at the top of the clock tower.

"Too bad you forgot the ice cream," Roxas said dryly, snuggling into Axel's embrace.

Axel pretended to be offended. "Hey! It was my idea to come up here at night in the first place! Cut me some slack!"

Roxas smiled, looking up at the stars. "Hey, Axel…?"

"Hm?"

"Have you ever wondered what would have happened if we both lived normal lives?" Roxas asked quietly. "With no Heartless, no Somebodies, no problems at all?"

Axel sighed contentedly, holding him closer. "We'd be the same we are now, Rox. Together, as always." He turned, kissing Roxas' forehead softly.

"Forever."

Roxas smiled. "I'd like that," he muttered, leaning up to kiss Axel under the starlight.

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

"Forever…" Alex muttered, staring at Ross intensely. "Roxas…?"

Ross smiled at him. "Axel!" He hugged him tightly.

Axel grinned and hugged him closer. "Well, that went well."

"What did?" Roxas asked offhandedly.

"My whole divine plan to be reborn into the same era and meet again."

Roxas looked up at him skeptically. "Oh yes, Axel, it was your plan that made this happen. Nothing else at all," he said sarcastically.

Axel grinned. "Who cares? We're together again…"

Roxas smirked. "Your hair is black," he commented.

Axel made a face. "I'll be dyeing it. You were dressing as a woman!"

Roxas laughed. "What can I say? I had to release my inner feminine wiles."

Axel snorted. "The day you have feminine wiles is the day that Vexen declares a love for inferiors and small children," he said dryly.

Roxas sighed, content in Axel's embrace. "We have normal lives now," he said contentedly.

Axel nodded. "How about we go inside and celebrate? I'm sure you have some kinky things mixed in with your mini skirts…"

Roxas blushed and led the way off the roof.

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

"But Mr. Vexner, I didn't do anything!"

The kindergarten teacher rolled his eyes as he dragged the child over to time out. "Now, Marlin, you stay here until you learn to behave," he said, turning to continue teaching his beloved class.

Marlin pouted, already plotting his revenge on his stupid teacher. We'll see how he handles his hair being dyed blonde…

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

GAH END. its twenty to two. TOLD you that one was a crazy. NOW the next one is another crazy sick one, BUT. WEllll its more of a memory loss one. BUT IT LEFT BLANKS for the names! SO ya'll pick two people, and whomever gets the most votes is who it will be!

AND if you didn't get the end, its Vexen as a kindergarten teacher with Marluxia as the devil child. XD

Alright R AND R

The last one was Kairi. XD

Roxas shuddered and smiled up at him. "Phenomenal sex time?"
