Love Me Or Love Me Not (Akuroku)

Chapter 11: Denial

Roxas's POV...

This isn't right. It isn't. I mean it's obviously real and happening but it's not Right.

I feel horrible for leave Axel like that, I really do. But...what about our friendship? What about what everyone else will say?

I'm sick of being confused about everything. I called up Riku and Sora to pick me up. I jumped in the car and didnt say anything to either of them.

What is there to say?

Sora just kinda watches me with sad eyes so I glare at him till he stops. I roll my eyes when he doesn't.

Seriously, what is going on with everyone? I have work to do, I have to make enough money to keep my brother and I on our feet. I shouldn't be waiting my time like this.

The moment we pull up the gravel drive I jump out of the car. I slam the door behind me and head up to my room. I pull my head phones on my head and blast music from my iPod. I close my eyes and just lose myself In The music.

Someone touches my shoulder. I jump sky-high and the head phones fall off my head.

I whip around to face sora. Normally he would laugh at what just happened but he doesn't.

"What do you want?" I snap wiggling away from his grip and walking over to my laptop on my desk.

"Are you okay? What happened?" Sora asks quietly. I roll my eyes and log into my computer.

"I'm fine and nothing happened. So stop asking questions." I mumble. I start up one of my games and pretend to ignore the fact that sora is still here.

"Roxas, don't lie to me...please?" I turn around in the seat to sit in it backwards and face sora.

"I'm not. I'm fine. And nothing that important happened." I state. Sora sits down on my bed and tilts his head to the side.

"You kissed him didn't you?" He asks smiling. I shake my head.

"No. He kissed me....wait why do you even care? How do you even know that?" I say shocked that I said the truth aloud.

Sora smiles and shakes his head.

"I care cuz I'm your brother, plus I set you two up. I could tell you liked him. And he told Riku he liked you..so it seemed obvious and now you are together!"

I turn back around to face my paused game and just stare at the screen for a few seconds.

"No. We aren't. I was a one time thing. Like a one night stand. Nothing more." I mumble. A squeezing feeling in my chest comes with the words. Well it was wasn't it?

"Well...alright. If you are sure." Sora pats my shoulder on his way out of my room. I rest my head in my hands and let my hands drop my head onto my desk.

I don't like Axel like that. It was a one night stand. Nothing else. There is no feelings between us and I am not gay.

My phone vibrates and I stare at the caller I.D. Axel....

I take a deep breath and answer it.

"Hey?"

"Roxas are you okay?" Axel asks. I roll my eyes and slouch back into my chair.

"Sure. Why?" I ask. Axel clears his throat.

"Sure? That sounds convincing." He says slightly sarcastically. I roll my eyes again. Geez am I in a mood.

"Sure, sure. Is that all you called for? Because I have homework to do." I say. I can't come up with another excuse.

"Roxas...school starts tomorrow. You don't have homework. Nice try. But okay. Bye."

Axel's voice is filled with hurt. I wince as he hangs up.

What have I done?
