"Why haven't you reported in, no. XV?" Xemnas asked and he bowed.

"Well I found this heartless and..." He looked at the Superior- he was glaring at him. He gulped, "I had to take it down. I wasn't going to come back until it was dealt with. So kinda like a bring home the bacon."

Xemnas raised an eyebrow and Jonathan was freaking out on the inside. 'There's no way he's going to believe that...'

"I see, and you have indeed came back, meaning it is defeated." He nodded. "Good. Thank you for your time, Jonathan. You are dismissed."

Jonathan sighed softly in relief and teleported away.

Maximum sat upright on the bed and looked down like an emotionless doll. Her arms were wrapped with bandages; she had cuts and bruises on her face. The red haired nobody wore her night dress. If she was her normal self, she would be over the moon that she got her Keyblade but, she wasn't. That thing that came out of her, Eri, it was like a monster and she couldn't control herself.

Roxas walked into the bedroom and gave her a cup. "Hey, here's something for you to drink." He sat down next to her and she took the cup. Max smiled at him.

"Thanks." She mumbled and took a sip of her drink. The red haired nobody swallowed hard and her fringe covered her eyes. Maximum didn't know what it was but it definitely didn't taste good that was for sure.

"I made it myself, is it nice?" Roxas asked and she looked up at him. His sapphire blue eyes sparkled so adorably and she couldn't just tell him the truth, it would make him upset. She grinned at him and then Eri appeared on her shoulder.

"Eri, what are you doing here?" Max asked.

"I want some of Roxy's special tea!" The guardian whined and Roxas smiled at this; how cute. Max on the other hand pouted.

"Oh no you don't, this is mine, and it was made for me. And don't call Roxas Roxy, only I can." She said and Eri glared at Max.

"That's not fair. I can call Roxas whatever I want to call him. I bet he likes me more than you!"

"No, he likes me more than you, Eri!" Roxas scratched the back of his head and watched the both of them argue.

"Um," Roxas raised his hand and they both looked at him "I like Max more, sorry." This made the said nobody blush but she turned to her guardian. Mac stuck her tongue out at Eri.

"Haha, in your face, now shoo!" Eri crossed her arms and pouted at this.

"Fine, you win. Hmph!" She disappeared and Max turned to Roxas.

"Is the tea nice?" He asked curiously and she drunk some of the tea in one gulp without breathing out.

"No, it's delicious! Thank you Roxas." She placed the cup onto the table and Roxas blushed at this with a small smile.

"You're welcome." She leaned closer to him and kissed his cheek. He placed his hand onto her head and rustled her hair. "Roxy, you're messing my hair!" She whined and started rustling his hair. He laughed at this with pink cheeks as he started messing her hair as well. They started laughing together very loudly.

Their laughing died down and they stopped rustling each other's hair. They stared into each other's eyes and she giggled.

"Roxas, thank you." She mumbled and fluttered her eyelashes.

"Again?" He asked and she shook her head. She placed her hands onto his cheeks and he gazed into her emerald green eyes.

"No, thank you, for always making me happy. You make me feel as if…" She blinked and placed her hand onto her chest. "As if…I have a heart, thank you Roxy!" She wrapped her arms around him and hugged him very tightly. He smiled at this and wrapped his arms around her as he gladly returned the hug.

Then Roxas heard soft breathing and looked down. He couldn't help but smile at this; she was asleep so softly on his shoulder.

Carefully and slowly, he pulled away and placed her on the bed. He looked at the cup and took it. The blonde haired boy took a sip and then ran to the bathroom. He spat it out and gargled his mouth.

"It's…disgusting. But…" He popped his head out of the bathroom and looked at her. "…She said that it was delicious." He smiled at this. "She doesn't want me to feel bad." The blonde haired nobody walked up to Max. "Such a little liar you are." He pinched her cheek and kneeled to the ground next to her. He leaned closer to her and sighed dreamily.

"Max…you make me feel like I have a heart too. I don't know what's going on with me, but whenever you're around, I feel this…" He placed his hand onto his non-existent heart. "…I feel this feeling, which is so strong and intense. But I only feel it for you." He stood up and sighed stressfully.

"But, what is this feeling, and why do I feel it for Maximum? I need to talk to Axel about this." He mumbled to himself and walked out of the room.

When he got to Axel's room, he quietly opened the door and entered the room. "Um, Axel." He shook the pyro who was wrapped around his blanket snugly. Axel turned around to face his wall, away from Roxas. "Axel, wake up, you big lazy bum!" The blonde haired boy shook Axel who groaned with annoyance.

"What is it?" He whined.

"There's something I need to talk to you about!" Roxas whispered and pulled the covers off him. His eyes widened and he covered his eyes. "AXEL, PUT SOME CLOTHES ON FOR THE LOVE OF KINGDOM HEARTS!" He yelled and Axel huffed at this; déjà vu.

"Alright, alright." He got changed and yawned. "You can uncover your eyes now." Roxas did just that and Axel crossed his arms. "Let me guess, you need to talk to me about something." He said and Roxas nodded vigorously with pink cheeks. "And alone as well."

"Yeah." Axel raised his hand and opened a Corridor of Darkness.

"Come on, let's go." Axel mumbled.

They sat on top of the Clock Tower for an hour and Axel sighed slightly irritated at this.

"Are you ready to tell me now, Roxas?" He asked and the blonde haired nobody was snapped out of daze.

"Oh, uh yeah. Um, Axel, would you get angry if I tell you something?" Axel turned to Roxas.

"Well, it depends, what is it about?" The pyro asked.

"It's about your little sister." Axel raised his eyebrows at this. "And I have this…feeling that I feel whenever I'm around her." The red haired nobody smirked at this internally.

'This is gonna be sweet!' He thought.

"Is the feeling hatred?" He asked and Roxas looked up at Axel with wide eyes.

"No, definitely no! I don't hate her at all!"

"Oh, so it's the opposite. You like her." Axel said in a teasing tone but Roxas shook his head at this.

"No, it's much more than that. It's…" The green eyed nobody rolled his eyes at this.

"It's love!" Roxas furrowed his eyes together.

"What's love?" Axel huffed at this and scratched the back of his head.

'This is definitely déjà vu.' He thought.

"Well, love is… a feeling of affection towards someone special; well in this case it's Maximum right?"

"Yeah you're right Axel. I do love her. I love her!" Roxas said enthusiastically.

"You're forgetting something." Axel sung and the blonde haired nobody turned to the pyro with questioning look. "I am her older brother." Roxas tilted his head to the side and then suddenly realised what he meant.

"Oh, uh, well, Axel, uhhhhhhhhh…." He slurred and Axel sighed with defeat.

"Do you love her?"

"Yeah, more than anything."

"Will you always love her?"

"Yes, I promise, forever and always."

"Will you protect her?" Roxas nodded vigorously.

"With my own life."

"Will you ever make her cry or break her heart?" The blonde haired boy placed his hand onto his chest.

"I promise that I will give her all the love in the world."

"Good! But you have to confess soon." Axel said.

"Yeah, I hope she loves me back!" Roxas smiled and looked into the distance thinking about the girl he loved. Axel watched him and couldn't help but smirk.

'Yup, she does.' He thought and felt like saying.

Max woke up and decided she was hungry. Her gut growled.

'Good, you're awake!' Eri growled.

"Sounds like you're hungry, too." She got up and walked to the kitchen. Eri appeared.

"I want chicken noodle soup!" She said and Max opened the fridge.

"I don't see any, hun." She picked up some lunch meat and cheese. "Let's just have sandwiches. I'm not really in the mood for cooking."

"Are you serious?" Eri complained. "I can't eat something that big."

"I'll just cut it into four squares then give you one. Sound good?" The fairy guardian shrugged.

"As long as I get to eat!" She said and she sat on the counter. As Max was making the sandwich, Eri saw Jonathan sneaking up on her. He noticed she saw him and put a finger to his mouth. She smirked and looked at the sandwich. When he got right behind her he covered his mouth.

He then poked her sides, "What are you doing?"

She jumped and turned around. At first, she was going to slap whoever that was. Then, she saw his smiling face, "Jon!"

"Hey, sorry I have been here for a couple days." She hugged him as a response.

"I missed you..." Eri blushed when she saw him.

"Geez, who's this guy?" She asked what she was thinking.

"Oh, this is Jonathan! Jon, this is my guardian, Eri." Maximum introduce. Eri flew around him, examining him.

"Hm, you look handsome! One of the more handsome guys of the Organization!" Max face palmed herself.

"Um... Thank you...?" He nervously scratched the back of his head and snickered.

"No problem! Any time!" She said with her hands on her hips.

"Eri..." Max whined. She giggled and went to grab a knife for the sandwich. Maximum sighed.

"She a werid fairy." Jonathan said.

"You have no idea."
