Axel's Day Off

"Okay, that's quite enough training for today." Merlin closed his large book of spells with a loud thump. "You two are making excellent progress! I think the you both deserve the day off tomorrow to rest. I will update Master Yensid over tea this evening on your progress. Enjoy your time off!"

Kairi looked up at Axel and smiled. "A whole day off! Any ideas on what you wanna do?"

Axel was lost in his thoughts and didn't hear Kairi's question. All he could think about was spending time with you. It's been weeks since he's seen you; before he left with Kairi for training, the last time you were both in the same room was at Master Yensid's tower after Sora and Riku's Mark of Mastery exam. Although you weren't officially together (yet), there was definitely something unspoken between the two of you. Catching one staring at the other here and there, light touches in passing, always making each other shy away and blush. He felt something deep for you, and decided now was the time to finally show it.

"Axel? Are you listening to me?" Kairi asked.

"Huh? Oh, sorry. What were you saying?"

"I asked how you plan on spending your day off tomorrow, silly. Are you okay?"

"I'm fine. I just.... I think I wanna spend it with [Y/N]. Get to know her some more, ya know?"

"Aww, Axel! I'm sure she'd love to spend some time with you, too!" Kairi squealed.

And that's when he realized the problem: how was he going to find you?? You were off venturing with Sora, no doubt, and he had no clue where you were. His shoulders dropped in defeat. "Yeah, but how am I going to find her? Who know's where she is, especially with Sora leading the way..."

Kairi rolled her eyes and pulled her phone out of her pockets. She smiled as she dialed Sora's number while Axel looked over her shoulders.

"Where did you get that??"

"Chip and Dale made them for all of us! It came with my new outfit. You'd have yours too if you opened your suitcase from Master Yensid," she smirked.

Axel scoffed and rolled his eyes. "Wise-ass," he muttered.

"I heard that. I'm trying to help you out, you know," Kairi stuck her tongue out. Her phone stopped ringing and a live video of Sora displayed on the screen. "Hey, Sora! How's it going??"

"Kairi! I'm so happy to see you! You'll never guess what happened! We just came back from a world where we were turned into toys! We were all shrunk down really small, and even got to explore around a huge toy store! It was so cool!" Sora was practically yelling into the phone because he was so excited. Kairi shook her head and smiled, letting him ramble on about other worlds that he's visited since they last saw each other.

"Sora, that all sounds great! But Axel here actually needs to talk to you. It's very important," she waved at Axel and shoved the phone in his face. "Talk!"

Axel stared at the phone and noticed you in the background, sitting with a girl with long blonde hair near a lake. He heard you laugh, and it made his heart skip a beat, something he thought he'd never feel again once he became a Nobody. Snapping out of his thoughts, he took the phone from Kairi and focused back on Sora.

"So uh... where exactly are you guys now?"

"The Kingdom of Corona! We landed a little while ago, probably'll set up camp for the night before we continue in the morning. Our friend Rapunzel needs to get to the Kingdom by tomorrow night to see the lantern festival. Why, what's up?"

A lightbulb went off in Axel's mind. "Lantern festival, huh? What's that all about?"

"Apparently they do it every year in hopes that the Kingdom's lost Princess makes her way home. Rapunzel says thousands of them are released into the night sky and you can see them from miles away! But it's also Rapunzel's birthday tomorrow, and she wants to see them up close. We're helping her get there safely."
