Akuroku:

Friends

       Roxas slowly opened his eyes to yet again see the flamming headed older man. "Don't faint again!" Axel quickly said to Roxas when he woke up. Roxas starred at the familiar face. "I..I won't..." He struggled to say. "Who...who are you..?" The blonde asked.

       Axel sat back in his chair and answered, "The names Axel. A-x-e-l. Got it memorized?" Pointing at his temple Axel smiled at Roxas. Roxas sat up looking at Axel. "Axel....How did I end up here? A...and why are you here?" Roxas asked looking around. Axel gave a sigh, "Your friends told me to bring you here. I couldn't just leave without introducing myself!"

      Roxas starred at Axel with a blank expression. Axel looked back at him. "Well you introduced yourself. WHy are you still here...." Roxas said angerly. Axel looked down sadly. "Oh, right. I guess I'll be on my way. Hope to talk to you soon Roxas." Axel said standing.

       Axel walked to the door to find Roxas stopping him in the doorway. "How do you know my name?" Roxas quickly asked. Axel looked over his shoulder and smirked. "I got it memorised." The red head answered before leaving the room. Roxas sat in shock. All these mixed emotions running through his body. "Who is he..." Roxas thought to himself.

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

Later that day Roxas got out his journal and wrote.

- Today I met a red headed talle man. What a strange way of meeting. And an embarassing one at most. He seems very, strong. For one, he didn't move a muscle when we ran into each other. And two, I did touch his chest. What a weird way to meet someone. What's even worse is that I fainted! Xion, Namine, and Sora know why I do that! And I think they told him! I'm screwed-

        Roxas closed his notebook and put it in his backpack.

"Roxas!"

"Namine?"  Roxas asked as soon as he herd the voice. "I didn't know you liked guys!" Namine yelled at Roxas. Roxas stood motionless. "N...neither did I." The blonde responded to Namine. Namine laughed, "Roxas has a crush!"

    Roxas blushed a deep red, "N...no I...I don't!" Roxas said stuttering. Namine looked at Roxas, "The only reason you ever faint is because you like someone. I would know." She said crossing her arms. Sora laughed as he walked up behind Namine, with Xion. Xion looked at Roxas with a sad expression.

 "So now you like Axel...." She said wat a soft voice. Roxas looked at her. "Xion..." He said sadly. Xion turned and headed down the hallway.

 "Looks like you two are history." Sora said with a straight face. Roxas sighed and turned to walk sown the hall. To his surprise, down the hall stood Axel. He stood leaning against a wall, his sleeves rolled up. Roxas quickly turned to a hall heading right and ran down it.
