Axel
The sun wakes me up with a jolt of sparks as I stare off into its powerful rays.

I notice that I was lying beside Sephrina and somehow she didn't react to me getting up so fast. Which is good by the way. It's 9:00 am and I get up to get dressed. I put on a black t-shirt,black jeans,and my back boots. As always,I put on my coat.

Okay,so...since Im a Nobody,I also can't actually feel heat coming into me. Unless Sephrina is here,no one will give me any heat,a steam of hope in myself. That's why I put on my coat,because I can only feel the cold,I can only feel the darkness shiver over my body,and that my friends,is all I feel.

I walk out of the bedroom door and make my way downstairs. I sit down on the couch,and then lay on it. I sigh as I look up to the ceiling. I had a dream where she met the Organization and she turned evil,turned into a robotic demon,and...killed my best friends and then...killed me. I shiver at the thought. How could I ever think about her like that? She said she never would but my mind says otherwise.

My coat tightens each time I move,but I doesn't make me feel pain,it makes me feel comfortable and I ignore it. I snap my fingers and I make a portal. I walk through it and land on top of the roof. I snap my fingers again and it disappears. I sit down on the ledge and look at the sky.

The sky is full of many colors. White,red,orange,blue,grey,black...
many,many colors. My favorite is red as always. But,today the sun seems to shine brighter than ever and it makes the desert even more hot. But,as usual,I don't feel it and I still think that I'm cold. That I have a cold heart...but I don't have one. I feel...I feel like I'm in love. But,really,what is love? What is love? What does it look like? How does it feel? What do I do when I'm in love,even though I can't feel it?

I put my hand to my chest and breath in,feeling the crush of my bones seeping through my veins. I breath out and let it all out. I sigh,I whimper,and somehow...I make a tear fall down my face. Wait,I'm...sad? What is this?! WHAT ARE THESE STRANGE FEELINGS?! I slap myself in the face and say,"Get it together,man!"

"Axel?" I hear a voice whisper to me. I turn around and see Sephrina. Her hair is long,falling to her shoulders and down to her waist. Her clothes are the same outfit she wears everyday and her eyes...wow,they brighten up like a shade of silver or gold.

She walks over to me and says,"Hi." She does a little wave at me and I wave back. She sits besides me and looks at the sky too. I try to look at the surroundings,but somehow,every time I do,I go back to her. Why is she so beautiful? Why is she...attractive? How did her life come up to this? Why am I feeling this way right now? I put my hand back on my chest and take a deep breath. Breathe in....breathe out. Breathe in....breathe out. I repeat this to myself a couple more times before I finally breathe normally.

I didn't want to make this awkward so...I started a conversation.

"So...Sephrina?" "Yes,Axel?" She says,her eyes now turning towards me and locking on my emerald green eyes. "I was wondering...want to get something....maybe,I don't know...ice cream?" "Sure. But,guess what?" "What?" I say,surprised about what she is going to do next. "I already bought some! And good news! It's your favorite! Sea-salt ice cream! Just for you." She magically brings two ice cream bars and holds out a hand. "Here. For you,for being a great boyfriend." She smiles at me and I take it. Sometimes,she can get really pissed at you. But sometimes...she's great and can be like a sister to you. That's,to me,a big improvement on her life.

I take the wrapper off and start to take a bite. Yep,still has the salty sweet taste to it. "Thanks,Melanie." "You're welcome." She says,her smile growing bigger now. Then,she turns around and starts to eat hers. The first bite she takes was not the reaction I was expecting. People would just grow weird about it,but not to her. She smiles at it and takes another bite to it. Hmm...she must have tried this before.
