Title – Happiness in the Form of Pills.
Author – Aaia
Rating – T/M
Notes – This is probably the first multi-chapter fic that I've attempted to do in a while. This wasn't what I had originally planned on, actually. It was only going to be a one-shot. If you want the one-shot, let me know and I'll post that too. But the openings are the same, it only changes when I say who the partner is. Anyways. It's obviously AU, and will eventually be Akuroku. Key word, eventually. Read on!
We were looking at going away for a long time. Our brief make out sessions with the law had turned into a pretty fucked up relationship. Two counts of arson, three counts of grand theft auto and three counts of attempted murder. Needless to say, we were fucked.
My name is Roxas and I'm sitting in a holding cell that is way too fucking cold. I know we're not supposed to be treated like royalty, but really? Are they trying to give us hypothermia? Pneumonia, maybe?
Anyways. So I'm sitting here, collecting my thoughts and- Oh, shit. That's my mother.
"Roxas, honey.." What the hell. Guilt trip already? I'll get plenty of those when my pretty little ass is sitting in prison, thanks. No need to start already.
She hands me a newspaper and walks away, probably crying. What am I supposed to do with this? I'm not conceited enough to want to read about myself.. Well.. Maybe I am.
I open the paper and snort when I see my picture adjacent to my partner Hayner's. I read the first column out of the five taking up the entire first page. I giggle a little when I get to the part about the guys who are in critical condition thanks to us. Unfortunatly for me, one of the guards overhears me.
"What the fuck is wrong with you, kid?" He's glaring. What do I care?
"Everything."
I only had to wait a couple hours after my trial for them to tell me how long I was going away for. Probably the quickest jury decision I've ever had to deal with. Whatever.
The judge is one ugly fucker. He looks like he's got something shoved up his ass. Sideways. And he doesn't strike me as the type who'd enjoy that sort of thing. I can't help but not take him seriously.
"Have you formed a unanimous verdict?"
I look over at the jury members. Funny looking bunch. Somehow they all look familiar. But then, when you live in as small a town as I do, excuse me, did, you pretty much know everyone and everyone pretty much knows you.
"We have your honor."
"Well?"
I start giggling. Worst possibly moment, according to my lawyer, who's sitting next to me, trying to get me to shut up.
"We find Roxas Mendi guilty on all charges."
"What is his punishment?"
Now I start laughing out loud. Lovely.
"Instead of sending him to Hallow Bastion-"
The prison. I raise an eyebrow. I'm not going to jail?
"-We're sending him to Memory's Skyscraper."
Oh. Fucking. Hell.
