Chapter 33: “Confessions”

I was sleeping really good when I heard Roxas screaming. I bolted up in bed and shook him awake.

“Rox what’s wrong?” I asked in a sleepy tone. Roxas sat up and cried in his hands… I hugged him as there was a knock on the door.

“Axel it’s mom, I’m coming in okay?” Mom’s voice said through the door.

“You can.” I responded whipping Roxas’ hair out of his sweat and tear covered face. Mom opened the door and turned on the light, Kairi and Reno right behind her.

“What happened?” Mom asked walking up to us.

“…Sorry for waking all of you up, it… Sora had a nightmare… I… felt the fear…” Roxas explained.

“Oh sweetie, do you need to talk to him?” Mom asked.

“…no… Cloud is taking care of it… Sora’s calming down…” Roxas responded.

“What was the dream about?” Kairi asked.

“…I don’t know… I didn’t have the dream but whatever it was, first made him happy, then curious, then worried, and at the end terrified… if Sora need me, I’ll know…” Roxas explained.

“Well okay Roxas, try and get some sleep, it’s four in the morning.” Mom said petting Roxas’ hair with a gentle smile.

“Thanks Tifa…” Roxas said….

“I worry about you and Sora, Roxas, you know this… I’m always here.” Mom responded shhing Reno and Kairi out of my room.

“Are you sure you’re fine?” I asked rubbing his back.

“I’m fine… I don’t get it though…Sora stopped having nightmares… First after mom and dad died… then Hiroshi… Damn… I think its because of Riku’s attack…” Roxas responded, more just thinking out loud than to me… I kissed Roxas gently on the lips and pushed him down so he was laying down.

“Try to sleep babe.” I told him before covering us up all the way and wrapping him into my arms… I didn’t fall back asleep until I heard his breathing even out in his sleep…

I didn’t wake up again until I felt someone poking my check. I groaned and swatted the invaded poking hand away. Then I started to think… I still feel Roxas wrapped in my arms… then who?… I opened my eyes in alarm before blinking them to get adjusted to the change of light.

“Morning sunshine! The earth says hello!” Said the most, annoying, loud, voice, on earth!

“Pinky why the HELL! Are you in my ROOM!” I yelled before sitting up, making sure me and Roxas was completely covered.

Roxas yawned and stretched under the covers before opening his eye… “Oh hey Marty… Marty!?” Roxas said pulling the covers tightly to him.

“Out…Now!” I demanded.

Without any warning I had Marluxia straitening me and him shaking my shoulders, all while he talked really fast. “Theywon’tanswerthedoor,andSoraaskedmetocheckonRikuforhim,andnooneansweredIamnotdiscoveringanybodydeadnever again.”


“…Okay one, stop shaking me!” I said as calmly as possible. He listened and stopped shaking me. “Good now get off me, your freaking me out pinky.” He listened again… “Now tell me what you were saying in a normal speed please?” I asked getting a weird look from Roxas…

Marluxia took a deep breath… “They won’t answer the door, and Sora asked me to check on Riku for him, and no one answered… I am not discovering anybody dead… never again…” Marluxia explained.

“… Get out…” I responded.

“But-” Marluxia started.

“So I can get dressed and check for you Marty…” I explained.

“…Thank you Axel…” Marluxia responded before leaving my room.

“Why didn’t I know Sora was so worried to call Marty?…” Roxas asked himself, getting dressed as well.

“Don’t worry right now babe, Sora had a reason…” I responded zipping up my pants…

Before I knew it I was in front of their door… “Well… are you going to knock?” Roxas asked behind me. Without speaking I knocked… I waited for a good minute, no answer.

“See.” Marty said behind me. I shook it off and knocked louder… still nothing…

…Maybe something IS wrong… I thought before peaking through the window… “Maybe they aren’t home?” I suggested.

“Axel their car is here… I think their bikes are two.” Roxas responded.

“Then why aren’t they answering?” I asked looking inside again.

“…it’s because we were in the back yard Axel.” Said a voice. I jumped and fell off the ledge into a bush. “Didn’t mean to scare you. Are you okay?” Riku said laughing a little, now looking down at me. I blinked.

“Yeah I’m fine…” I said getting up with a helping hand from Riku…

“So what did you guys want?” Riku asked.

Oh just check on you… How are you?” I responded then asked.

“I’m fine, sorry for scaring you guys like that…” Riku responded with a sad look.

“It’s okay, but maybe you should talk to Sora…” Marluxia responded.

“Sora?… Why?” Riku asked.

“He was SO worried about you that he begged me to check on you for him.” Marluxia answered. Oh for once I’m glad pinky has no clue what he just did… I smirked…

“Why is he so worried?” Riku asked. That was the last straw…

“Riku, I promised not to tell but hell, I’m going to…Sora…likes…you…like…you…like…him…” I said nice and slow in front of his face.

“Axel!” Roxas yelled in disbelief.

That’s when Riku blushed… “you…you mean… he likes me, likes me?…” Riku whispered.

“Yes, but he’s afraid of losing anyone else…” I answered.

“I can’t believe you Axel… Sora will never thrust you again…” Roxas said.

“…wait… You like Sora?!” Marluxia yelled finally catching up. Riku blushed even more then…

“Marluxia call Sora and tell him Riku’s fine…” I spoke breaking the silence. Marluxia grabbed his phone and called Sora… “Put it on speaker, without him knowing.” I demanded, he did…

“…Marty?… Please tell me he’s fine…I… can’t take it if…-”

“He’s fine Sora, all better!” Marluxia answered happily.

“Oh thank god… I’m sorry I made you check… I… I couldn’t bring myself to go over there… if…I…” Sora said over the speaker in the saddest tone I’ve heard from him since Hiroshi’s death…

Riku slowly walked to Marluxia and asked for the phone without words… Marluxia gave it to him with a smile and nod.

“Sora?…” Riku spoke.

“Ri-Riku!?” Sora responded…

“I’m sorry for scaring you so much… I’m fine…And…’ Riku looked at us’ … I love you… so much… I can’t explain it! I- Yazoo said that the way I feel for you, so fast… is because… we’re soul mates…” Riku said, a tear going down his check. “…thump.”

“Sora!” Came Leon’s voice. “Sora are you okay!? How’d you fall out of bed anyways?” Leon asked. Riku’s eyes got big.

“…RIKU LOVES ME!!!! SQEALL!!!!!!” Sora responded.

“…I’m death now…” Leon responded.

“gasp, THE PHONE!” Sora responded. “Riku?… I-I- I love you two… I- I never felt this way… I-I loved you the moment I saw you…” Sora responded. Riku smiled.

I looked at Roxas to see him smiling and crying at the same time… I did good…
