  Weeks had past and nothing has happened since then.
After being lost in your thoughts, Axel then walked through the door carrying a large bag. Looking at him with confusion you ask what was in it.
He puts the bag down near you. A sound of something clanging together. He tells you. "I"t's just some things". The look of concern falls over your face and you swallow some of your fear. He stops in front of you , "here" he says. You look at him and he reaches for you, you flinch scared he would hurt you again. Instead of hurting you he untied you. You stared into his eyes, never blinking nor taking your eyes off him, nor moving a muscle. Finally he broke the silence. telling you that you still Y-You can't leave, I'm just gonna clean you up~"

Sitting you up, he takes your arm into his hands oh-so-gently. He looked at the wound with a grieving look on his eyes. "I-I'm sorry (Y/n)...I-I wish I didn't do this to you~" You look down not sure of what to say. He sighed and took some things out of his pocket, it was medical supplies, stolen medical supplies from Vexen's lab.

You whimper at the pain as he cleanses your wound. Yet you can tell he's trying to be as gentle as posible. Standing up, he said something then walked over to the desk drawer . Not realizing what Axel said, you shot your head up asking, "w- what did...." trailing off from what you were saying. Again your heart sank when you saw the shimmer of what was in his hand, it was that same small knife. The same knife he had used to wound you.

Interrupting your thoughts, he says in a sorrowful tone , I don't have any pain killers or any numbing medication so this might hurt, ah hell, what am I saying....There's no use in sugar coating it, it's, this is going to be unbearable~". Wondering what he was going to do to you, you start to back away, "Now I don't want to hurt you...but this is the only way.....a-and, I'm sorry~",
He grabbed you.

You start to hyperventilate and sob. your muscles tighten down in your throat making you sound as if you had no proper oxygen to breath. "(Y/n) I'm so sorry~" he tells you while gripping your arm tightly.

Trying to struggle from his grip he crawls on top of you to hold you down, "If I don't clean the wound, it'll get even more infected than what it is" He bit his lip to the point of blood.
"(Y/n) p-please stop fighting, I'm trying to help you~". By the tone of his voice you could tell he wasn't lying, he had the tone of someone who cared or loved you deeply. You froze. Never had he been the one to help others, if he did that was rare. Sighing deeply you relax biting your lip. "I promise,I will try to do this as quickly as possible okay~

As you closed your eyes everything fades, only hearing your heart beat and the sound of your own flesh being ripped open once again. The burning pain shot through your body, and you let out a ear piercing scream tears flooding your face.

After the pain tries to die down your left with a numb, throb. Opening your eyes slightly you look at Axel. Tears slowly building up in his eyes. "W-Why are you C-crying~?" you asked with a quivering voice, trembling from the pain. "Axel...?"
You tried to lift your hand to his face but your arm was to dead to move.

His tears drop on to your chest, and the pain starts to fade. Forgetting everything, the pain, where you are ,who you are, it's almost like, everything stopped.
It's a first you ever seen him cry.

His parents, they were heartless. They would beat him senseless for crying. Saying that crying makes him weak, useless and that he gives in to easily. They shunned Axel for his "being of weak" except for when they have nothing to do, they invited him to play their special games. Axel hadn't cried since, or as said, never around you. He took it as a man.

Your other hand slowly found it's way up to his face and wiped his tears, "You don't need to cry Axel~" you said with a week smile. As he whispers to you he leans down to you and kisses you, tasting the metallic or iron taste from when he broke the skin on his lip. You don't fight the kiss this time, you close you eyes, feeling your tears as well as all your pains fall down your face slowly.

You opened your eyes slightly from the feeling of Axel's tears landing on your cheeks. You broke the kiss to speak to him. "You've changed~". he smiles softly and replies, "you must be rubbing off on me~". You took a deep breathe from the weight on top of you. Axel soon realizes and moves from being atop of you. Reliving you of his weight. He wiped the tears from his face and apologized countless times to you.

"This wont hurt as bad but then again it depends on how bad it is~". He opens a bottle and pours it into the wound , you grit your teeth and whimper at the pain. Needles, needles are the feeling that are your arm. But those needle pricks slowly fade away over time.

"Is he still a friend?" you thought to yourself.

Axel puts his hand onto your cheek and you close your eyes, trying to relax.
The pain now gone, but still a little sore.
He let out a sigh and wrapped your arm. He left the room as well as leaving you untied, closing the door and locking it behind him.

It was quiet for a while till you heard him let out a sigh, as he slid down the door and started to cry softly.
Walking over to the door without getting his attention, you listen to what he says to himself not thinking that you can hear him. "Why did I do that to you, why can't....I..I..love you the way I'm supposed t-..."he cut him self off..."what is love...?

(A/n: Baby don't hurt me no more~ XD)....it's a feeling I can't and won't understand...because...I-I have no heart~"
Hearing what he said you spoke up in a shouting voice. No Axel your wrong you do have a heart...I know you have a heart because....because you have to have a heart to cry !" Axel gasps softly at what you said, hearing him stand up he then walks away, his voice fading, "Yeah, right. Having a heart makes me weak~"
