Feeling Not Too Bad, Kingdom Hearts (Sora/Roxas)
Title: Feeling Not Too Bad
Author: kunenk
Rating: G
Word count: 372
Prompt: Oct 13- Sora/Roxas: sharing- living on the outside of your skin
Summary: The two of them may need a timetable.
A/N: Sorry to be late. Not entirely what I originally had in mind, but I hope you still enjoy it.
There was a tree just outside Sora’s window that’d been there for as long as Sora could remember (though it hadn’t been as tall as this when he was younger), and he’d used it to get out for about as long as he could without drawing attention to himself. He knew how its bark felt, where there were bumps in the branches, and so Roxas knew, too, kind of, but it never hurt to remind himself, right? If they got too complacent-
He dropped from the tree a little higher than usual, and staggered a bit when he hit the ground. It hurt, but pain was good, meant this was real, and he’d remember to go a bit lower for himself next time.
Roxas?
Roxas tried not to curse. He hadn’t meant to jar Sora awake. It wasn’t that they didn’t get along, though they had their problems (then again, who didn’t?)- but really, sometimes he wanted to get out and feel for himself, not just through Sora.
Oh, Sora said. You could’ve said something, you know!
Roxas shrugged, heading towards the beach. “I guess. But here… it’s your place. Not mine. I mean… I barely know anyone here, not really. And Naminé…”
…We can still work something out, Sora said, determined. And it won’t be like this forever. I promise.
Roxas considered this for a moment, plopping down on the sand (not quite solid this high up, but scratchy and there) and lying back. “Just don’t do anything stupid. If we have to search through all of Darkness for you…” Not that he really expected Sora would try that again, but Sora was an idiot sometimes.
I didn’t mean that, Sora protested. Just… we’ll visit Twilight Town again sometime, and in the meantime we’ll fix something up so you get to know people here, yeah?
“Sure.” There was a breeze blowing, and Roxas closed his eyes to focus on that. “Just… not right now.”
Okay. Just… don’t fall asleep here. Please?
Roxas snorted. “Oh, please. Who’s the irresponsible one?”
Hey! I’m responsible!
“Uh-huh.”
Sora huffed at him, and Roxas grinned, opening his eyes to watch the sky. Maybe it would’ve been better being apart, but this, this was good too.
