Disclaimer; If I owed KH… ;)
The next morning I was woken to a sore head, half naked redhead and two completely naked girls over in my bed. Fuck I was dehydrated and in need of a shower. I walked over to my dresser and pulled out a black and white shirt hoody and a new pair of jeans and trudge to the short. I was that cold from sleeping with no shirt in July that as soon as the hot water touched my skin it stung raw. I washed my mouth out with my mouth wash and turned off the shower and changed into my new clothes. When I entered the bedroom again, I caught Naminé putting her shoes on and opened the door. She turned around and look at me worried and pleading. I looked at her surprised and then at Xion, who looked so content in her sleep. I looked back at Naminé and she mouthed 'I'm sorry', then left.
I really didn't have practice at this so I had no idea what to do when Xion finally woke up, but for the time being, I pulled my doona up over her shoulders and covered her up. What was happening? I was in a bed with another guy, while two girls… I was always taught it wasn't right for it be like this. I was taught; man and woman. Nothing else. Anything else was wrong. My head was spinning and I didn't know what to do, my stomach was tightening so I rushed to the bathroom and heaved what little was in my stomach. The contents were that of an amazing night. I met a heap of people, got drunk, tried weed, had the best sleep and had my first kiss… I felt someone's hand on my shoulder when I finished.
"Good morning." He was still smirking. I know we hadn't done anything to... you know, but wasn't the next morning meant to be awkward? Apparently not. I washed out my mouth again and flopped on the bed. Axel shuffled over to me and laid beside me so our foreheads were touching.
"How's your head?" his eyes were darting from one of my eyes to the other. Fuck they were beautiful.
"Pounding, but not as bad as I thought it would be." I chuckled to him. "I think I'm just hungry now."
"Wanna go get something then?" I didn't want to move. I was ok with just falling asleep with him again right here. Some rustling came from behind me and my stomach sunk again. I rolled over and Xion looked confused.
"Morning." Axel gave her a sly look. That changed in a matter of seconds when he realised the same thing she did.
"I know I had a lot to smoke last night," She sat up not caring is she wasn't covered. I think last night showed what team I was on, but that didn't ok her being as exposed as she was. It was July, she'd freeze her ass off and get sick. So I got up and went over to her and covered her up.
"Would you like a shower?" I suggested. Her eyes welling up when she realised Naminé slipped out and left earlier.
"I was a stand wasn't I?" Axels head lowered. I was lost for words. "I was a one night stand…" Xion said almost inaudible. At a loss, I just hugged her and let her cry into my shoulder. Xion started sobbing uncontrollably and saying stuff about how it wasn't fair; it was her first time. Things along the lines of that.
Axel stood up off the bed and went and washed his face, he came back and picked up my keys. He lent down to be and whispered; "She needs you, this is when you make a close friend, ok?" He kissed my ear. "I'm going to go and get your car, some greasy breakfast, and a couple of other things. I think she needs it." Turning my head around, I met his gaze. My face was probably flushed and I didn't care. But I was in the same boat as Xion. But in a different one at the same time. I wanted Axel to not come back. I just wanted to cry because of how confused I was, so I did. Not as much as Xion, no, she was gasping for air and I was just whimpering.
Xion finally stood up and I took her into the bathroom and turned on the shower. She just sat on the floor and so did I, but outside it. We both lent our heads on the glass between us.
"I'm sorry." Was all I could offer her. She held her hand up to the glass and I placed mine over hers.
"If you need to talk, I'll always be here." I looked up to her, a surprised look took over her face. She smiled the best that she could and simply replied. "Thank you Roxas."
The rest of the day was torturous. My head was killing, Xion spent most of the day in the bathroom heaving, what sounded like, a whole bottle of alcohol and whatever she had eaten. Eventually she had fallen asleep by the toilet and Axel carried her into my bed and we wrapped her up. Axel and I sat apart on the other bed and where watching horror movies. The air was thick and I felt horrid what I had done. If my parents ever found out… they'd kill me and then dance on my grave.
"Are you ok Roxy?" Axle put his hand on my shoulder and I shook it off, maybe a little more roughly than I had intended. But I wanted him to leave. I want Xion to leave too.
"Axel, I'm sorry last night happen…" I said as low as a whisper.
"What for?" He placed his hands on my shoulders and lightly pulled me back to his lap, I didn't protest. His skin was warm even through my skivvy and I have no idea how he was still shirt less. I think he's just doing it for show now. Stupid, mind fuckingly beautiful human. Because of this, I refused to look at him, I didn't want any more perverted thoughts tainting my mi- His chest is like someone chiselled it out of stone. FUCK!
"Axel I think you need to leave…" I couldn't look at him, and I felt his how body drop. His arms fell slightly away from him, along with the rest of his body.
"Why? What have I done?" He seemed a little agitated and was trying to compose himself.
"Axel, this is wrong."
"why?!" He snapped back. I was taken back a little and his new demeanour kind scared me a little.
"We shouldn't be doing this –" He cut me off
"It's wron-"
"How?!"
"We're sinning!" I finally shouted at him.
And he just stared at me.
