Summary
He'd found the room by chance. It was the perfect hideout whenever Roxas needed a break from Seifer’s childish provocations, or Professor Wise’s unfair attitude, or just the stress of being a first year college student drowning in gen-eds. He’d come and vent his frustration with nobody but the books as his witness. After meeting Axel, he hadn't needed to use it. For a while, Roxas had even forgotten about it.
A while. And now here he was, back to hiding behind the cluttered shelves of books. Because he’d been laughing at something Axel said, looking into his vibrant green eyes, watching the smug quirk to the older man’s thin lips— and he’d abruptly wished that Axel would kiss him.

Summary
'You got a fast car
Is it fast enough so we can fly away?
We gotta make a decision
Leave tonight or live and die this waySo I remember we were driving, driving in your car
Speed so fast, I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
And I-I, had a feeling that I belonged
I-I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone.' -

Summary
'Just remember, darling, all the while... you belong to me.'
Roxas knew when he started his new job there would be all types of people that would show up. He expected the lewd, the rude, the just plain crude comments. He expected maybe the occasional recognition out in the regular world.
He never expected things to go so far.
