“Just seeing how you would react to it.” Really, he had expected the blond to react like this. After all, friends don’t kiss friends, wasn’t that how the saying went? As the male threatens to throw an entire ice cream at him, Axel laughs. He genuinely laughs for once. It’s sort of cute with how defensive he was getting over one little cheek kiss. 

“You’re too much fun, Roxas.” Instead of saying a couple of other things, he opts for that instead. His friend would surely hit him again with maybe another ice cream stick for even that, but it was better than some alternatives that could be in line for them.”What? DId ya not like it?”

Taking a bite of his ice cream and chewing, Roxas glared at Axel albeit playfully and rolled his eyes. That was similar to the answer he was expecting to hear, though it left him wondering why he chose to kiss him on the cheek of all things. Perhaps it was best not to think too much into it and take it as it was: Axel messing with him.

“No,” Roxas replied with a huff, cheeks still rosy with embarrassment. “I might’ve liked it if you were a girl or something, but you’re... you.”

Glancing to Axel and seeing that smug grin on his face was enough to fuel Roxas to lean over and give him a light shove to the shoulder. Taking another bite of his ice cream, he tried to hide his own smile as he gazed ahead.

years passed // Roxas & Axel.

Crossing his arms, a smirk overtakes his mouth at the sound of his name passing the younger male’s lips. Waving a hand after uncrossing arms, Axel nods. Ah, so Roxas did remember him a bit! Great! 

“Sure is. It’s been awhile, hasn’t it? You were even shorter last I saw you.” The smirk soon turns to a grin as he steps away from his car, legs carrying him to the male before himself. So..Roxas really was okay. Good. That’s all Axel truly wanted to know. The male had made a special place in Axel’s heart long ago, and the place hadn’t shriveled up yet. The male did seem a bit down, but perhaps he just wasn’t remembering Roxas all the way yet. It’d been years of endless worrying. 

Shaking his head, he stops a bit before the blond. There isn’t much he can say here, or rather, ask. Axel wants to know all about what the younger had been up to these years. He wants to know why Roxas suddenly stopped coming one summer. 

But mostly, he wanted to know whether or not they were still friends. 

[coolerthansora-blog]

“W... What’re you doing here?” he muttered softly. “It’s been forever.”

It slipped out before anything else Roxas wanted to say or ask his longtime friend. Of course he was thrilled to see Axel here, but it was the reasoning behind his sudden appearance that threw him off. It’d been at least a couple of years since the two of them last saw each other and he figured without a doubt that Axel would have either left town or forgot about him by now.

“I- How did you know that I moved back here? How did you... ” he continued, shaking his head from side to side afterwards. “You know what, never mind. That doesn’t really matter. It’s... It’s really great to see you! I just didn’t expect anything like this to happen.”  

Unable to suppress a grin and a mirthful laugh, Roxas gently slapped his friend on the shoulder (and no he didn’t have to reach that far up to do it, mind you) and pulled him into an awkward one-armed hug.  “We have some serious catching up to do,” he said with a firm nod of his head. “I’ve got a lot to tell you and I’m sure there’s a lot you want to ask me too.”

@Coolerthansora; Roxas.

He figured it was about time he actually went out and looked for a job; instead of just saying that it’s something he’s been doing when in reality he’d kind of, maybe, been putting it off for a while now. Which, when he thought about it, was kind of stupid seeing as he’s the one who had decided he’d get a job to pass the time. Seeing as he seemed to have a lot of free time on his hands now a days.  So that’s how he found himself accompanying his dad on his way to work, early on Saturday morning rather than sleeping in as he tended to do on the weekends. After splitting away from his dad; with a final and hundredth, ‘yes dad, I’ll be careful, no dad, I didn’t forget my phone.’ For whatever reason, his parents still treated him as a kid and not the almost adult he clearly was. Probably one of those parent things; he found himself on his own. Looking down both ends of the street he decided he’d try the smaller businesses first and see if he had any luck there before he moved onto the bigger, larger businesses. With a somewhat plan formed in his head he turned to his left and made his way to the closest shop.

“I regret this day already...”

Roxas’s parents insistent nagging that he get a job led to one thing and now here he was, up bright and early on a Saturday morning when he should have been sleeping in. He was casually riding around downtown on his skateboard, stopping at the occasional shop to see if they would accept his resume. So far, only one place seemed interested in the exhausted teenager with bags under his eyes. The rest turned him away without a second glance.

He was so tired that he almost completely missed a laundromat with a big “WE’RE HIRING” poster on their front window. Fortunately, he managed to catch a glimpse last second and hopped off his skateboard, tucking it underneath his arm and headed inside. The place was busy enough and the job surely couldn’t be too difficult, so Roxas figured he might as well try.

However, when he got to the front counter, the manager took one look at him, she shook her head. He hadn’t even offered her his resume yet. “Um, I’m terribly sorry, but we’re not looking to hire anyone else,” she said, giving him a sincere smile. “Please try somewhere else. Good luck!”

Roxas wasn’t in the mood to argue. Sighing softly, he turned around only to see another guy about his age with resumes of his own headed towards the front counter as well. “They’re not hiring anymore,” Roxas informed him. “Thought I’d spare you the effort.”

Beach Day // Roxas + Xion

coolerthansora

[seasaltqueen]

“Roxas!” The girl waved down her best friend. She was beyond excited for today. She had a cooler in one hand and her backpack mounted on one shoulder. She was prepared for whatever what was to come her way now that Roxas was here.

As the two came together, she gave him a hug, the smile growing even wider. It had been too long since the two had spent time with each other. Roxas lived in Newstark while Xion was in Rosedale. With Xion working almost all the time, she could hardly leave to meet up. But today she was able to get the day off just for Roxas.

“Are you ready?” she asked, eyes bright. “I’m so happy we finally get to hang out!”

[coolerthansora-blog]

“Xion!” Roxas shouted in return, waving his hand high above his head.

The sun was high in the sky when she finally emerged on the sandy hills leading down to Pearl Cove’s shore. Even though it was a Saturday, he had woken up early at 7 AM to get ready for a day at the beach with none other than one of his most cherished childhood friends.

He’d already gone ahead and set up at a picnic table on the beach, bringing with him a light blue umbrella, towels and a portable BBQ which he planned on cooking their lunch with. Elated to see her after so long, he rushed ahead to help her carry her things and wrapped an arm around her, giving her a firm squeeze.

“It’s great to see you too!” he said cheerfully, grinning from ear-to-ear. “It’s been so long since we’ve had a day on the beach with just the two of us. I hope you’re ready for some old fashioned fun.”

A Familiar Face (Ventus & Roxas)

It felt like a normal day.

Ven tried to pay attention in classes during the day, he hung out with his friends between breaks, he ate his satisfactory lunch, he cracked a few jokes during the afternoon classes, and he tried not to fall asleep at the last class of the day. All in all, it was just another day in the life of Ven. When the school bell finally rang, signifying the day was over, he was practically jolted back to life. He grabbed his things and was out of the classroom before you could say 'Later’.

He barely stopped to say goodbye to his friends before he was on his own. He didn’t feel like going straight back home today. So what would he do? The pizzeria sounded like a good plan. Their mozzarella sticks alone were worth the trip. As he tried not to salivate and drool on the ground, he put on his headphones and turned on his iPod, preparing himself for the trip to the business district. But before he could so much as leave the school building, he suddenly recalled that he had to collect some forms from the school’s office. Sighing to himself, he turned around and headed back. By now, the halls were still full of students who were either taking their time to leave or had to stay back for whatever reason. As he neared the office, he noticed some of them give strange looks, but when he asked, they simply shook their heads and said it wasn’t him. He didn’t quite understand the response, but he shrugged and continued on his way.

Finally, he arrived at the school office. There was someone speaking to the receptionist already, though Ven could only see the back of their head. It got to the good part of the song he was listening to, so he barely registered what was happening around him. As he waited, he noticed that the back of the person’s hair was quite spiky, which made him feel the back of his own head and his own spikes. He smiled to himself, thinking that the person’s hair looked kind of funny. He didn’t expect for the person to turn around and to see what he saw. He did a double take, and his jaw practically fell to the floor. He blinked. Several times. He took off his headphones and he couldn’t stop staring. It really did feel like looking at a mirror…

It felt like an unusual day.

Instead of waking up in a bustling city with car alarms and people shouting in the streets, things were... quiet for a change. Sure, Newstark was still a lively town, but it was nothing compared to what Roxas had grown used to over the years. The house they moved into was still a mess with boxes full of their belongings lying all over the halls and most of the rooms were being re-painted. Roxas rolled off the mattress he slept on and yawned loudly, squinting through the bright morning sunlight that peeked through the basement window.

Today was to be his first day at a brand new school; something he wasn’t exactly looking forward to if he was being honest. In the next couple of hours, he showered, dressed himself and grabbed a bowl of cereal and caught the bus to Glendale Public High School. Schedule in hand, Roxas took a deep breath and prepared himself for what would surely be a long and tiring day of introducing himself over and over and getting settled into new classes full of unfamiliar students and teachers. What fun.

By the time his last class rolled around, Roxas had to admit Glendale wasn’t such a bad idea and surprisingly enough, he’d even managed to make a few new friends. Although the cafeteria food could’ve been better, it wasn’t that terrible of a day. His teacher informed him to drop off the last of his registration papers at the office and after getting directions, he left the classroom with a small smile on his face.

He passed another student in the hallway who paused to glance at him oddly. After a brief moment, he cracked a grin and laughed, nodding his head.

“Hey, Ven! Nice new clothes, man,” he said, giving him a thumbs up of approval. “I didn’t think that was your style, but you pull it off pretty well. See ‘ya later!”

Utterly confused, Roxas opened his mouth to inform this guy that clearly he wasn’t this “Ven” person he was speaking of, but before he could, he was already out of hearing distance. Shrugging it off as nothing to fret over, Roxas continued his trip to the head office and found himself face-to-face with a long line up. Minutes slowly passed and finally, it was his turn. Eager to get things over and done with, he handed the receptionist his papers and hurriedly answered any questions she had.

As soon as she finished typing in the last bit of information, she dismissed him. Roxas turned around, expecting to see a long line up of people behind him. Instead, there was a single person and... not just any person. A person who, a few stray differences aside, looked like the spitting image. of Roxas himself. How in the...

hi ven i see you

BRUH

[jxxgo]

As the Popsicle stick hits his head and bounces off, he lets out a laugh he hadn’t know he was holding back. It was sort of cute to see Roxas like this. Waving a hand, laughter soon dies out. Ah, his best friend was a cute guy. Honestly, Axel just wanted to see what he would do. He was not disappointed. 

“Just seeing something.” Tone is playful and light, eyes narrowing back into a smir

[coolerthansora-blog]

Roxas grumbled under his breath, something about “stupid Axel” and “I just wanna eat my ice cream in peace” and crossed his arms over his chest, sighing. Still, he couldn’t suppress a smirk when he caught the stick bounce off of Axel’s head in the corner of his eyes. Good aim, Roxas. He surely deserved that one. 

“What do you mean, just seeing something?” he asked skeptically, tilting his head to glance at him. “You’re messing with me again, aren’t you? Next time I’ll throw the entire ice cream at you. And what a waste that’ll be.”
