Chapter 2: Jealousy Is Overrated

Roxas POV

A week passed by much in the same fashion. I got to know Axel a little bit better but he still refused to talk about his boyfriend. So in an attempt to get him to open up I stayed behind and worked the night shift, (like I had been doing so for the past week) and talked to him.

"Can I tell you a secret?" I asked looking around to make sure no one saw me.

"Sure." Axel whispered doing the same.

"I hate my girlfriend. She's possessive and mean. I can't hang out with anyone unless she knows where I'm going and my parents approve of this! You believe that shit?" I whispered angrily.

Chuckling he patted me on the back. "I feel ya doc. After I leave here I'll probably end up going back to my boyfriend. But I must confess I don't want to go back home. My boyfriend beats me, he's the reason why I ended up here in the first place. I know that everyone knows but that still doesn't make it less embarrassing. I really do love him and I know how stupid that sounds but he used to be really good to me. Then the cheating started and then the beatings... I'm sorry you probably don't want to hear all this." He said pulling the covers up around him farther and sinking down.

"No! No I mean... I'm sorry about that. Hey I have an idea there's this apartment complex right next to my house. I know the landlord there, he actually owes me a favor. I could help you get the apartment if you're serious about leaving your boyfriend." I offered.

He only thought about it for a moment before a large smile broke over his face. "Yeah, I'd like that a lot. When I get out of here tomorrow I'll go pack up my stuff. I should probably call my friends but I don't think I'm ready for that just yet." He mused. "I'll go by myself."

"I'll call him right away. By the way I'm going with you tomorrow I don't think you should go alone." I said as sternly as I could. Axel mulled this over for a few minutes before a sad smile spread across his face and he agreed that I could come. After exchanging phone numbers we were settled.

It was going to be hard on him that much I knew but I don't think he was prepared for how hard.

Axel's POV

I liked Roxas... I liked him a whole lot in fact. The problem was Roxas was straight. I couldn't ask him out on a date because that would just be too weird so instead I asked him to come to one of my performances. He asked if he could bring his girlfriend and with a shattered heart I said yes.

Thankfully this was on the way to the apartment I shared with Sephiroth. My plan was to go in while he was at work gather what few possessions I still owned, write him a note and leave. But alas like most, plans just don't go according to plan. Parking behind Sephiroth's dingy truck I stepped out of Roxas silver Mercedes and we both headed up the stairs.

The door was unlocked and I had no more than opened the door when I heard loud moaning. Taking my hand in his Roxas led me through the door and into the living room. I knew he meant it to be comforting and friendly but it was hard to take it that way.

Sephiroth didn't even stop his movements when he saw us. A pink haired man was sitting naked on top of my now ex boyfriend riding his cock. He never stopped his movements and neither did Sephiroth as he growled at me asking me what I wanted.

"I'm leaving you." It was supposed to come out strong but instead came out more of a whimper.

The pinkette snorted running his fingers through Sephiroth's hair. "Oh Sephy's already moved on honey." He purred pressing his lips against Sephiroth's.

"Get your fucking shit and get out you little whore." He growled as he continued bouncing the moaning pinkette on his lap.

With tears in my eyes I headed to the room that we used to share. I took out the few shirts, pants, and boxers that I owned and the few books that Sephiroth hadn't burned out of spite and left. Getting back in the Mercedes Roxas didn't say a word he just drove me to the apartment I was now going to be living in.

Demyx and Zexion were there waiting when we pulled up and as soon as Demyx saw me he gathered me in his arms and helped me inside. I knew I hadn't called them before I left the hospital so Roxas had probably called them for me. Roxas had donated a bunch of old furniture that he and his girlfriend never used so the apartment already came furnished. Everything looked brand new even the Queen size bed that had once been housed in the guests room.

Shutting the door behind him Demyx curled up with me on the bed rubbing my back soothingly.

"He's already moved on!" I wailed. "I know that's supposed to be a good thing but couldn't he have at least waited before fucking someone elses brains out? Couldn't he be just a little upset?"

"Sephiroth is a scum bag Axel! I know you still love him and I'm sorry he did that to you it wasn't fair. But what about Roxas? He seems really into you. I mean... I'm not trying to push you onto someone else especially if you're not ready but he seems kind." Demyx offered.

"And straight!" I cried taking a pillow and burying my head under it.

Letting out a soft, "Oh" Demyx just silently held me. After Roxas left Zexion came to join us sitting on the other side and running his fingers through my hair. They both stayed with me that night, Demyx slept in the bed holding me tightly so I wouldn't feel so alone while Zexion said he'd take the couch.

I cried a lot that night until the tears just stopped flowing. Even then I still whimpered and hiccupped clinging desperately to the warm body beside me. He didn't call me, didn't try and ask for my forgiveness which I would have readily given. So when morning came and my eyes were burning and red rimmed from crying I didn't move. I just lay there awake like I had all night. They tried to get me to eat but I brushed them away telling them I wanted to be alone.

Roxas came by later that day before work to check on me. I had finally made it to the couch this time with a small afghan wrapped around my shoulders.

"I'm calling in." He said. I didn't try and stop him, I wanted him here with me. I wanted to be selfish and take all of his time he was willing to give me. He sat on my couch with me and let me lay on his lap as I screened my calls ignoring the ones from Riku.

I wasn't ready yet to talk to my silver haired friend. I was afraid that he would get angry at me and tell me, "I told you so! I told you, you shouldn't have dated him!"

I could only screen the calls for so long before he finally got fed up and drove to my apartment. He burst in just as Roxas was leaving to go back to his house next door.

"Axel damn it! What did I do?" He cried brushing past Roxas and pulling me into a sitting position.

Roxas just stared and after nodding and telling him I'd be fine he left.

"No you didn't do anything... it's just I didn't want to answer because I knew you'd tell me, I told you so! I'm not in the mood for that right now." I said.

"I wouldn't do that. I'm not that much of a dick. I did tell Sephiroth off though and told him if he got within eyesight of you he'd be dead. But I know what will cheer you up. I got us another gig about a week from now. We can't let the band fall apart remember our dreams? We're going to make it big one day." He said excitedly.

Riku never got excited. He was always very apathetic but if he got excited over something it had to be big. His enthusiasm was contagious and soon the small apartment was full. We practiced hard that week, singing new songs along with a few cover songs sprinkled in.

We practiced at my new apartment, Demyx's and even Riku's. I was the lead singer and played the guitar while Demyx played bass, Riku was on the drums and Zexion played the keyboard. The Rockstars were back!

The day before I headed over to Roxas house to invite him to our gig. His girlfriend Namine was the one to open the door.

"Hi, is Roxas here?" I asked with a smile.

"Your that faggot that he's friends with aren't you?" She sneered. My face dropped and I stood there opening and closing my mouth like a fish. I could already feel the red as it crawled up my face and settled. "I know all about you! I've been doing some research on you. Listen here you little faggot I don't like gays and I don't like you. Roxas is straight you know that right? So that little crush you have on my boyfriend you can forget about it! He's straight so leave him alone!" She hissed her face was red with fury and those blue eyes were dark with malice.

Slamming the door in my face I turned around as confused as ever. Had Roxas mentioned me? What had he said about me that had angered his girlfriend so much? Taking a step back I stood there on the porch for a long minute before heading back to my apartment. I didn't say a word to Demyx, Zexion or Riku.

I didn't try and text or call Roxas about the gig. He didn't stop by the apartment either. Packing our things up in Demyx's and Zexion's truck, Riku and I got in my old beat up car and we went straight to the venue.

Riku said he was going to bring his boyfriend along but Sora was sick at the moment so he shoved Riku out the door and told him to have fun.

We had fun singing that night, the crowd was responsive and we even had a few fans try to make their way on stage. The bouncers thankfully pulled them off as they were drunk off their asses. Beer was abundant that night and some of it even found its way on stage where it sloshed on our feet. Before we left we were asked to do an encore.

It was in the crowd during our encore that I noticed a blond head. Roxas was here! I broke into a grin until I noticed the pale blond haired girl standing next to him whispering in his ear.

I was less enthusiastic as he started laughing and pulled her into a big hug. After our song was over I thanked the audience for coming and we headed backstage. It was our first time singing at a large venue and it was just as thrilling as I thought it would be.

We had just made it backstage and were just chilling out passing beers around when one of the bouncers made his way back saying we had two visitors.

"Were you guys expecting anyone?" Riku asked.

We all shook our heads but told the bouncer to send them through anyway. I tried not to groan as I saw Roxas make his way back hand in hand with Namine.

"Hey guys!" He cried excitedly. "How come you didn't tell me you were playing tonight Axel? The only reason why I came was because one of the nurses couldn't come tonight and she said a new band was opening up for Chevelle so we thought we'd check it out."

Namine smiled sweetly but underneath that fake smile she was seething. She didn't want to be here, she was probably only going to make Roxas happy. But from what Roxas had told me she didn't care if Roxas was happy or not. Now I was just confused. I thought he didn't like Namine? Was he just saying that? He seemed to be enjoying his time with her.

"Oh sorry. I meant to I guess it just slipped my mind. What'd you guys think?" I asked after Demyx nudged me.

"You guys are awesome! How are you not famous yet?" Roxas said. He sounded so genuine.

"Yeah really awesome." Namine sniffed with a wrinkle of her nose.

Demyx stared at Roxas then Namine and back to me before shaking his head. He already knew I really liked Roxas and he seemed to think the same thing I did about Namine. She was as fake as they came and a bitch to.

"Roxy babe are you ready to go yet?" She purred grabbing his arm possessively and sending a glare my way.

He must have sensed the tension because he sent an apologetic smile my way and nodded. "Yeah I guess I'll see you around. Bye Axel."

I was going to say bye but as they walked away Namine turned her head and glowered at me. Demyx stuck his tongue out, Zexion crossed his arms and glared back while Riku just gave her the finger.

"That's who you have a crush on? Really? Way to make things complicated. But we'll help you get him? Right guys?" Riku called.

"Of course! He's gay Axel whether he knows it or not he's gay. He doesn't love her, he's only pretending and I think she knows that." Zexion answered. "It's only going to be a matter of time before he comes after you."

Once the crowd had finally cleared away and we were happily buzzed we cleaned the stage off and headed home. Demyx and Zexion offered to stay with me but I waved them on.

I didn't talk to Roxas again that night or the following day. We didn't get back in touch with each other for another full week, and then it was like you couldn't separate the two of us and my feelings for him only grew. I didn't want things to get complicated but it looked like they already were.

A/N: It's hard to make Namine such a bitch. She's so sweet in the games! But it's also so fun! Haha anyway enough of that I hope you enjoyed chapter 2! Let me know what you think! I'll start posting every week or earlier depending on reviews and my schedule. So review and let me know what you think I'll see everyone again in chapter 3!
