Chapter Text
it's 3am, when axel feels a slight nudge to his shoulder in the middle of his dreamless, but light sleep. 'ax?'
axel yawns, but turns around sleepily to face zel, his bright blue eyes practically glowing in the dark as he blinks at him. 'yeah?'
'do you ever wonder about leaving earth?'
axel yawns again, 'hm, sometimes. but i've already left earth, i don't think i have to wonder anymore.'
'forever,' zel says, and there's a hint of finality in his voice.
axel can barely keep his eyes open, but his lip curls in a slight smile, as he grabs the other by the hips to pull him closer, and peck his forehead. 'why? you wanna take me back?'
zel relaxes into the touch, murmuring a little 'maybe.'
'maybe,' axel says, agreeing. 'maybe someday, my space prince.'
