Saki walked over to Axel and tapped him on the back. "I don't know you, or know how you're really friends with Sora, but can you please give him air." The small brown haired woman looked at Axel who was still holding Sora in a way she found to be a little intimate.
Sora's eyes went wide, and Axel blushed, pulling away from Sora and Roxas.
"You think...you thought..." Axel shook his head, "no, you've got the wrong idea, I'm just really happy R...Sora is okay."
If Roxas had control over Sora's body, Sora would be beaming right now. He caught what Axel had almost said and it made him feel so happy. Axel really did care about him.
"Oh, I see." Saki smiled. "And I don't want you to get the wrong idea, I don't find anything wrong with homosexuality, I just want my baby to be able to breath."
"Mom, we're not..." Sora started to say.
"I know," Saki chuckled, "but if you were, I wouldn't be one of those parents that disowns my child. I'll love you no matter what." She said honestly.
"Thanks mom." Sora smiled.
I like you mom, Roxas said. She's cool.
Yeah, she is pretty cool.
So, when are you going to tell her that you ARE gay?
Sora choked, making Riku run to his side and pat him on the back.
"Sora, are you okay?" Riku asked, worriedly.
What makes you say that, Roxas?
Sora it's no fun being in denial. You've got to be honest with yourself. Now, tell me the truth; do you or don't you find guys attractive?
I...I...yeah...
Ha! I knew it...well, it helps that I can see your thoughts. It's so cute! You like Riku!
Ah! Roxas, stop looking at my thoughts!
I can't help it.
"Sora!" Riku shouted, when he did not answer his question.
Sora jumped his face flushing. "What? Oh, I'm fine." He grinned sheepishly, "Just choked on spit or something."
Riku smiled softly, "Oh, I'm glad you're okay. Is Roxas really with you?" he whispered so that only Sora could hear him.
"I don't know how, but yeah he is." Sora whispered back.

The sickness that had been dubbed 'The Island fever' had started to calm down by the time Sora and Kairi found themselves released from the hospital.
The small group of friends did not understand how only Sora and Kairi seemed to be possessed with their nobodies. Maybe the others that had been sick hadn't really been affected by the same thing Sora and Kairi had.
I stopped it, before it was too late.
Axel whipped his head around, trying to figure out who had spoken so near his ear. He didn't see anyone except Sora and Riku, who were a little ways behind him, and Wakka, Tidus, Kairi and Selphie, who where way ahead of him.
"What's wrong Axel?" Selphie asked, looking behind her, seeing the confused look on the redhead's face.
Axel scratched his head, "I don't know, I'm hearing things, I think."
It's me, Leia. You were wondering why the 'sickness' ended. I stopped it before it was too late. I'm sorry, I know you wanted to set all the nobodies free but too many people were dying. But the good thing is Roxas and Namine will find their way back in time.
Axel looked back at Sora and smiled.
I understand why you had to do this Leia, I'm just glad that Roxas and Namine will be free.
I'm glad you understand. May peace be with you.
"Axel." Selphie walked over to Axel and waved her hand in front of his face, "you there?"
Axel blinked his eyes, "yea, of course." He said, giving Selphie one of his charming smiles. "Come on squirt, let's catch up with the others, they've left us behind." he said, throwing his arm around her shoulder.
He was right, by now Sora and Riku were ahead of them with Wakka, Tidus and Kairi and they were getting further and further ahead.
Selphie smiled, "okay." They ran to catch up with the others, Selphie immediately pulling away from Axel and running to Kairi's side.
"Hey, everyone, let's stop for a bit, I have some explaining to do." Axel said, causing everyone to turn to him.
Everyone agreed and walked to a clearing to sit down on the ground.
Axel stayed standing up as he started to go over everything, of course leaving out his love for Roxas.
"So this Leia brought you back and she's the one that brought Roxas and Namine back...so to speak?" Wakka asked.
"Right, and she said they'd be here in the flesh soon, but she can't really say when that will be."
Did you hear that Sora? I will get to be flesh!
That's great! No offence but when I can have my mind back to myself the better.
Roxas chuckled inside Sora's head, I understand and I know what you mean.
Tidus nudged Wakka, "look I think Sora and Roxas are having a conversation, Sora's eyes look glassy."
Wakka and the others all looked at Sora and saw that Tidus was right.
They're probably talking about you-know-what. Namine whispered in Kairi's mind
You mean how Sora likes Riku?Kairi asked.
Selphie giggled, "Now Kairi's eyes are all glassy."
"I wonder what they're talking about," Riku and Axel said at the same time.
"I don't know about you guys but when Sora and Kairi are like this it's kind of creepy." Selphie said, waving a hand in front of Kairi's face.
Kairi jumped, coming back to reality. "Hey." She smiled, "what we’re you saying?"
"Nothing really." Selphie said, smiling.
Riku walked over to Sora and moved his face close to Sora's. "Sora, what's going on in that mind of yours?"
Sora jumped, blushing at how close his and Riku's faces were, "Ah, nothing...I mean...uhh..."
Nothing but Riku, you mean.
Roxas, shut up!
Riku chuckled, "well I doubt nothings on your mind."
Everyone started to laugh, making Sora blush even more.
"Ah, you guys, stop teasing me." Sora pouted.
