Together Forever And Always

Found with a choice

       "Welcome to Traverse Town" a sign said as you entered the town.

"I'll be right back~ ?" Axel said as he walked away from you.
You nod in reply.

"(Y/n) ?" A voice echoed as the three ran towards you.
"(Y/n)~?" the voice said again.
You turned around meeting eyes with Sora.
"S-Sora is that y-you?" you reply surprised, your thoughts starting to taking over.
"Yep, I as me as me will get, d-do you still remember us~" he asked with a giggle.
You snapped out of your thoughts shortly, then you smiled nervously. "U-uh yeah I-I think I do~"

Sora looked up at you. "Y-You think you do-w-what's that mean?"
"Well you've all changed, you don't look the same as you used to"
"Oh-" Sora said softly in reply.

"What happened !" Riku asked very concerned, quickly taking your wounded arm.
You wince from the pain adding a sharp hiss. "S-Sorry~" He held your arm as gently as he could, looking into your bright/dark (E/c) eyes.

Thinking of how to reply, you had no words. "I-I well I-" Xalvage cut you off and you let out a mental sigh.

"Where have you been, we've been really worried about you"
Xalvage asked calmly.
You stared at the ground. "Enough with questions~" you thought.
Mumbling to yourself of what you should say.

Riku lifted your chin softly. "Your not acting yourself, is everything okay ?"

Axel walked out and noticed you talking with them. You got a little nervous, with Axel eyeing you down like that.

"Uh-sure I-I'm fine" you said quickly, looking in the direction of Axel then back to Riku.
"Sure? what do you mean by that?" Riku asked softly.

"(Y/n), you know you don't have to keep secrets from us right" Sora butted in. "I mean we are friends-A-Aren't we (Y/n)?" Sora asked with a sad expression. You turn your head to Sora and looked into his big blue puppy dog eyes.

You were silent for a short time until Sora hugged you tightly burying his head into your chest. "Aren't we~?"
"Sora I-" tears fell down your face and you pushed him away. "We are, but I don't-"
You trailed off as you looked to Riku. His expression now, was more upset than worried. "But you don't what ?"
Riku asked his voice slightly deeper.

"It's-I don't want you guys t-to get hurt" you said quietly.

"Hurt, (Y/n) what are you talking about. What going on with you?" Riku replied confused.

Axel's voice echoed slightly. "(Y/n) how long the days without you have felt" he said with a smirk.
He put his arm around you and hugged you. "Oh lights, what's happened to your arm~?"
"Y-you-" Axel cut you off before you could say any more . "Give us a sec, will you~?" he said to the three in an annoyed tone as he started to push you a bit. "Okay then?" Xalvage replied with her eyes narrowed.

Axel turned around and chuckled with a fake smile.

Axel whispered in your ear. "I don't think it's safe to be around them"
"B-but?" you looked at him then to the three. He looked back at you. "But what?"
"There're my friends, they wouldn't do any thing bad to us~"

"Uh-yeah they would," Axel said as he put his hands on his hips. You tilt your head confused. "What do you mean?"
"Well think about it-If they found out that I kidnapped you and did well-that" he pointed to your arm. "What do you think would happen!?" You raise your eyebrows at how anxious he's becoming, and rambling on.

"Okay-okay calm down!" you reply in a quietly shouted tone.
Axel suddenly looked at you and quieted down, now out of his trance.

He cleared his throat, and pushed you along, starting to walk away.
"Hey, where are you two going!?" Riku shouted.

"Oh-uh a uh-project-yeah a project" he turned back around and started to push you again.
"What kind of project?" Sora replied. Axel was getting agitated. "Just a project alright, don't gotta be so nosy~"
Xalvage growled and crossed her arms.

Sora, Riku and Xalvage looked at each other. "Now I really want to find out what's going on~"
Sora and Xalvage nod at Riku's comment.

"What's so special about friends, they are just baggage anyways" Axel said with a bored tone.

You quickly turn around to face him "Whoa-okay that's so not you!"
Axel turned to you then smirked.

"You've been different ever since Roxas...you know." You tried to avoid directly saying it. His expression saddened as he hugged him. "And I miss him a lot too you know~"
He chuckled as he rested his head on yours. "I bet you do, but he's gone and we won't ever see him again" Axel replied.

There was silence between the two of you for a short while until Axel spoke up. "Well, are you going to make a choice or what?"
You look up at him and raised an eyebrow.
"What, do you mean?"
"Will you stay with me or are you still going to be with them?" Axel asked.

You've thought about him and what's happened between youtwoen made your choice.
"I-I want to-" you took a breath then looked into his eyes smiling happily.

"Who needs friends, when I got you~?" you said with a soft blush.

Axel kissed you deeply, forgetting that you two were in plain view of your "used-to-be" best friends.
Riku looked up at you while they were having a conversation, he was surprised by the sight of you two, soon drawing the attention of Sora and Xalvage.
"They're kissing~" Sora said with a whine , while a soft blush appeared as he made a disgusted expression, as if he saw his parents making out.

Xalvage smirked and covered Sora's eyes. 'Your such a child Sora~" Xalvage said smiling.
"Are not~!" Sora replied, red in the face.

"Are to~" Xalvage mocked back.

"Is that what they're hiding maybe~?" Riku thought out loud.
"Hmm?" both Xalvage and Sora said simultaneously as they looked up at Riku.
"Maybe that's why (Y/n) was acting strange. Maybe she didn't want us to know?"

"I guess, but we should look into that before we go and start assuming" Sora said while crossing his arms.
"Yeah" Riku replied.

"And what about her arm...she didn't explain that either" Sora said as he put a hand to his chin.

You and Axel started to walk away.

"Hey lets follow them" Xalvage said quietly.
Riku and Sora both nodded and silently followed.

Rounding the corner Axel and you disappeared into a portal.

'Where'd they go ~?" Sora asked curiously.

"Not sure, but we'll find them. Riku replied.
