Chapter Nine:Thirteen Years Later
Roxas's p.o.v
I watched as shailene and her brother sawyer take archery lessons I smile and as sawyer turns around and looks at me to see if i'm still sitting on the back porch I exhale axel thinks I don't know but I know sawyer doesn't belong to him its just my feeling a mother knows and I know I just don't wanna reveal it to axel because he believes that sawyer is his and I can't handle the guilt he has a right to know I mean I think deep down he knows but he just doesn't wanna admit it and after the lesson shailene and sawyer are both thirteen we got teenagers in the house now oh god as I set the table for dinner shailene goes upstairs to finish her homework and sawyer helps me in the kitchen and he asks "moma? can I ask you something?".

I set down a plate and I nodd and he asks "is dad my real dad?" I exhale and I say "of course he is" he gives me a look and he says "don't lie to me mom" I strum my fingers on the counter and I say "its time we told you the story you and your sister" I nodd and when axel comes home the kids was sitting at the dining room table and I whisper "its time to tell them" he rubs his bright red hair and he asks "how do you know he's ready?" I grab his hand and I reply "he asked me about it" he nodds and when dinner was set we was sitting at the table and I look to axel and he says "ok kids listen up" they both look at us and axel continues "right after me and your mom got married we wanted children and we just wanted to wait well thats when we conceived you shailene".

She smiles and sawyer just looks like he's gonna cry she grabs his hand and he continues on "and after that your mom got kidnapped by a man that did unspeakable things to him do you understand?" they both nodd and then sawyer asks "so thats where I come in huh? your not my real dad are you?" I look over to axel and he looked like his heart was just breaking in half and he says "I raised you your my son" sawyer had tears strolling down his cheeks and shailene says "so he's? the product of what that man did to you?" I look at her and I say "shailene" sawyer shakes his head and he asks "she's right this is why I don't look like either of you or shailene is that why? am I?" he had tears strolling down his cheeks and so did axel and shailene asks "what did that man do to you moma?" I shake my head and I say "there's a time and place for this shailene and now is not that time".

She stands up and says "I wanna know what this man his father did to you for all we know he could be a bastard just like him" before I could say anything axel had already slapped her across the cheek and she was crying and touching her cheek axel had never raised his hand to anyone not even me and he says "you listen to me young lady that is your brother right there your talkin about and if I ever hear you call him that again i'll disown you now go to your room" she walks away and sawyer was crying and I walk over to him and I hug him he was shaking and I say "baby doll look at me" he looks at me and I see his face streaked from tears and I say "I love you do you hear me? I love you ok? your nothing like that man in my eyes he's never been your father" he stands up and walks out and axel says "he wasn't ready for it" I wipe away the tears from my eyes "I don't think he would ever be ready for something like that" axel walks in the direction sawyer went.


Axel's p.o.v
I walk outside and I know exactly where he is when I walk down the lonely streets of twilight town I see the clocktower and I see a figure all the way at the top I walk all the way to the top and when I see him sitting on the edge and I sit next to him and he says "how did you find out?" I exhale and take a deep breath "it doesn't matter how I knew ok?" he keeps looking at the sunset and I say "look at me" he doesn't look at me and I say again "look at me son" he looks at me I see him still crying and I say "sawyer from the minute I layed my eyes on you I knew you were mine maybe not biologically but I love you like my own I raised you as mine it killed me yes to see you grow up and look more and more like him but your my son and nothing will ever change that" he wipes away the tears from his eyes and I say "son I know it hurts" he sobs and he sits up against tower on the floor now and I sit next to him and he says "I just feel like my whole life is a lie now".
