“Roxas!” Sora yelled as he came to Rox’s side and helped him to his feet.

“Are you alright? Are you okay?”

“Y-Yeah, I guess so.” Once Roxas said that, Sora did help him to his feet and they walked off to their class.


Thankfully Roxas had gotten through Valentine’s Day without meeting Seifer once. He thanked whoever was looking out for him much more than ever that night. He just couldn’t believe his luck.

That was until the bell rang for the first period class and he thought that he could walk a new way to his class by going around to the back of the school. And walking in this said direction was what got him pinned against the wall of the school by none other the person he had just thanked so much to have not meet yesterday. Well, life sucks.

“You forgot something yesterday, Blondie?” Seifer growled as he moved Rox’s hands higher above his head and leaned in closer.

Oh gawd, okay I thanked you too much yesterday, I get it. But please don’t let this happen to me.

Roxas choked as he was pushed more into the wall, the back of his head not liking the feel of the brick. Nor did he like the feel of Seifer’s hot breath so close to his.

“I…I-I didn’t forget anything…” Seifer brought down his foot on Rox’s own, making the blonde scream out in agony.

“I didn’t see any box from you yesterday. So I say you forgot it.” The scared teen corrected as he then lifted his foot of Rox’s only to move his leg between the pinned junior’s thigh, slowly moving it against Rox’s…

Roxas cried as he felt himself being touched. He didn’t deserve this nor did he want it. But even though his mind was screaming for no, his body reacted and Seifer smirked as he knew it as well.

“You know I only asked for a small thing the other day but now you have to pay…”

“AXEL TOOK IT! Axel stole it from me yesterday. Please! I didn’t do anything wrong. Please, don’t!” Roxas cried, begged even. He didn’t want to go through this. Especially if it was for something as stupid as payment. Yes, Rox was a virgin and he wanted to keep it.

Seifer only chuckled as he leaned in closer again, making the smaller blonde shudder.

“Then I guess, I have to thank-”

“BEANIE BOY!” Roxas’s eyes shot open as Seifer’s head snapped to behind him. Which, allowed him just enough time to duck and let his prey go. He had ducked because Marluxia’s hand had aimed right for in between his eyes.

Marluxia dove for him again this time trying to land a punch to his cheek but Seifer threw up his arm guarding at the last minute. The two growled at each other as their eyes meet. Then Mar’s leg shoot out, smashing whatever was in between the beanie boy’s thighs.

Seifer screamed and was on the ground within a second flat. This is when Rox’s made a mental note for himself:

Be careful when fighting Marluxia, he’s a really dirty fighter.

Mar had grabbed Seif’s collar and slammed him against the wall, where Rox had been only minutes ago. He punched the smaller teen’s face at least four times before Seifer was finally spitting blood all over the grass.

“You ever touch him again and I swear you’ll be coughing up more than just blood, do you hear me?” The pinkette hissed with pure venom dripping from his smooth deep voice. Roxas shivered at the serious tone. Even if he looked totally girly, Mar was deadly. Really deadly.

Seifer was only able to nod slowly before being let go and crawled a good ten feet away then used the school wall to support himself and limp away around the corner. Once he was gone, Rox slowly rose to his feet and let his body give another shiver, forgetting what could he possibly be going through right now if the senior didn’t show up.

Speaking of which he should thank him.

Roxas slowly turned to the taller teen and gulped softly then stepped a little closer.

“Um…Mar…thank yoAHH!” Roxas ducked himself as in during his words of thanks, Marluxia had spun on him and aimed a fist right at him.

What the hell?

Roxas jumped back and ducked and dodged, doing everything he could possibly think of to not get hit. But Mar’s fist just kept coming. Why the hell was he aiming for him too? Mar doesn’t make any sense. He just saved him then turned on him. Why does this have to happen?

Roxas jumped to the side as a foot was about to crush him and then dipped backward as a fist aimed for his stomach. He tried to feed punches back but it was blocked all the time so he just focused on the dodging. It was his best bet.

Right when Mar was pulling back to aim for Rox’s shoulder, a arm from out of nowhere reached out and grabbed his arm.

“Mar stop!”

Marluxia snapped his head to where the arm was attached noticing Demyx standing there. The pinkette was about to ignore him and turned back to Rox but Dem twisted Mar’s arm behind his back and wrapped his other arm around his friend’s chest.

“Mar, stop it. You can’t do this.”

“Shut up! Let me at him! I’ll kill him! He ruined everything! Everything was for nothing and it’s all of his fault! I’LL KILL YOU!” Mar screamed as he only kept his eyes locked on Roxas and fought with Demyx the best he could to get at the smaller blonde.

Demyx groaned as Mar really struggled but finally got in front of his friend and held him back with both arms now firmly on Mar’s chest.

“No, you’re wrong. Nothing is ruined. You can’t do this Mar. You know you can’t. Just calm down. Everything is okay.”

“NO IT’S NOT! You don’t know what he did last night! He burned his cats, Demyx. His cats! He was so upset and angry he went on a firing spree. So he stuffed his two cats in a bag and set them on fire. Then came to my house carrying their two burnt dead bodies and bawling his eyes out.”

Dem’s eyes went wide and Mar stopped struggling as he leaned against the school wall, tears coming to his crystal orbs.

“He even burned his hands. After he lit the bag, he realized what he had done and grabbed at the bag trying to get it undone but only burned his hands until he let go and then went to go get water to put out the bag. Do have any idea how I felt when I opened the door to my best friend crying and carrying the cats that we raised together in his burnt hands. DO YOU!?”

Mar fell to his knees, crying uncontrollably now. Demyx shook off his shock of what he heard and fell beside him, wrapping his hands around him. He cradled Mar against him and held him tightly, whispering comforting nothings that he knew wouldn’t work. He even began to shed a few tears.

Roxas watched in wonder and shock of what he heard. He didn’t need to be a rocket scientist to know who in the world they were talking about. But how could Axel do something like that? He didn’t even think Axe was capable for something like that. And more importantly why in world would he? What pushed him so far that he would kill, no burn his own cats to death?

Was it really all because of yesterday?
