Always

Summary: Continuation of Reckoning and How Long is Forever?
Axel had always done so much for me… was always there for me… and I found myself wanting to return the favor. After all… he deserved all the happiness in the world, for giving me mine. Akuroku. Roxas' POV.

Here's an excerpt from chapter one:

I smiled at Axel, completely at peace, as he held me close. We danced, moving together as if we were one, and it was truly magical. I smiled up at him and then grinned widely, barely believing that June had come already and that we were at one of the most perfect weddings I'd ever been to in my entire life. It had been a beautiful, perfect, afternoon creating the foundation for a stunning wedding. Sora and Riku had married on the beach at Destiny Islands at sunset and the reception was now commencing as the last traces of twilight fell over us.

My smile widened as I got lost in his eyes, staring up at the stunning man who was holding me in his arms. Axel had always done so much for me… was always there for me… and I found myself wanting to return the favor. After all… he deserved all the happiness in the world, for giving me mine. My smile widened when he smiled back at me.

"Hey! Smile!" Demyx yelled, sneaking a picture. He laughed, smiling at the image on his digital camera. "You two are a vision of happiness again," he said, smiling. "It makes me so happy!" I smiled up at Axel and the red-head smiled back, each of us thinking the same thing. I stood on my toes, kissing him as he leant down, kissing me back. Demyx tried to take another picture of us and Axel snatched away his camera. The red-head tsked.

"Oh Demy, I've always been happy with my sweetheart." I smiled, hugging him.

"Me too."

-I hope you'll enjoy it (: and I'll do my best not to disappoint you.
