Three children were battling with toy swords and the girl panted. The silverette boy laughed.

"Come on! I thought you two were better than that!" He said cockily. M_ and S_ looked at each other and nodded. They charged at him and knocked him back together.

"We are!" They said together and both of their faces were full of determination.

Maximum gripped onto the bed covers and jolted up with beads of sweat rolling down her forehead. Her panting died down and she gulped. The red haired nobody wrapped her knees and hugged them against her chest.

'What was…that?' She asked herself. 'Was it a dream…or was it more than that? Something's going on with me.' Roxas opened his blue eyes and looked at Max who was rocking herself slowly. He sat upright and touched her face. The red haired nobody looked up at him and gulped.

"Hey, you okay? You look pale; did you have a bad dream?" He asked and she sighed.

'I don't know what it was, Roxas…' She felt like saying.

"Maximum…?" She wrapped her arms around his neck and hugged him very tightly. He furrowed his eyebrows at this but nonetheless returned the hug. He kissed the top of her head and she leaned her head against his chest.

"If there's anything on your mind, talk to me about it, okay?" She closed her eyes and breathed out.

"Okay…" She mumbled quietly.

"I love you…" He intertwined his fingers with hers.

"I love you too…" She said and drifted off to sleep.

The next day…

Maximum returned back to the Castle from another mission and was anticipating seeing Roxas and Axel. She was in the Grey Area and saw her brother and love. Her eyes widened and so did her grin. Just as she was about to raise her hand and call out for them, something flashed and she saw something behind her eyelids.

"S_! M_! R_!" They turned their heads to see an auburn haired girl waving at them.

She blinked and shook her head. The red haired nobody took a step towards them and tripped over her feet. She fell to the ground and they turned to her. Something flashed again and she saw another dream.

M_ forced a smile and a wave back. Sora left her side and she watched him, stop waving and her smile turned sad.

R_ ran passed her and she followed after him. She tripped over her own feet and her glasses fell off.

"Dang it!" She felt for them, being it was hard to see without them.

"Hold on!" She heard S_'s voice and seen a blurry S_ run towards her. He picked up her glasses and blew off the sand. He wiped them off and put them on her.

"Hey Max, you okay?" Roxas asked and she looked up at him with wide eyes. It was as if what she saw before mirrored what was going on in reality, or was it the other way round?

"Um, yeah…" Roxas held out his hand for her and she gladly accepted it. Whilst pulling her up, Max closed her eyes and saw another thing.

"T-thanks..." She said with pink cheeks as she adjusted them.

Maximum opened her emerald eyes and they widened as what she saw was really happening. Roxas wrapped his arms around Maximum and held her closely to his chest.

"Careful." He whispered ever so softly. She looked up and realised how close she was to him. Roxas stared into her bright green eyes and she looked up into his sapphire blue eyes. When she blinked she saw deep sea blue eyes.

"Earth to Maximum!" Axel snapped her out of daze and Roxas pulled away from her. She looked at Axel and scratched the back of her head nervously.

"Heh, sorry about that!" She giggled.

"Are you okay, Sis?" Her brother asked.

"Yes, I'm completely fine." The pyro raised an eyebrow.

"Are you sure?" He slurred and she rolled her eyes at this.

"Yes, I'm sure."

"How many fingers am I holding up then?"

"Four." She muttered.

"No, five!" Axel said and Maximum's left eye twitched.

"Axel, you're holding up four fingers!" The pyro's smirk dropped and Roxas and Max started to laugh at him. Axel raised his hands up in the air with a cheesy grin.

"You got me!"

"Don't worry Axel; you're secret of not being able to count properly is safe with us. What do you say Max?" The red haired nobody placed her index finger on her lips with a cheeky smile.

"Oh I won't." She said in a teasing way.

"Hey, what are you guys talking about? I can count! Got it memorized?" He tapped his finger on the side of his head. Max and Roxas looked at each other with smirks.

"Sure you can, Axel!" They said in unison and started running away from Axel, whose eyebrow twitched. But then they started to call and sing. "Axel can't count! Axel can't count! Axel can't count!"

"What?" Then he realised what they were going to do, shout it to everyone in the Castle. "No!" He started running after them.

Later on…

Max giggled at Axel's little counting problem as she ran her hand through her hair. She was standing in front of the mirror and the blonde haired nobody sat on the counter of the sink. She picked up a brush and started to brush her hair.

"How many times do you have to brush your hair?" Roxas asked.

"Well, I am a girl." She said.

"I know that, obviously. But it's not even night time to brush you're hair yet." He pointed out and she rolled her eyes at this; men.

"I love my hair." She stated.

"I love my hair too, but you don't see me brushing it every minute I spare." He hopped off the counter and walked up to Maximum. She placed the brush down and looked up at Roxas with a smile.

"That's because, Roxy..." She pinched his cheek. "…You're a boy and you won't understand." He rolled his eyes at this and snaked his arms around her waist. She blushed at this and he pulled her closer to him.

"You shouldn't brush your hair so much."

"And why not?" Max asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Because, you're amazing just the way you are." Roxas mumbled and leaned closer to her. She wrapped her arms around his neck and their noses were touching. "Even like this…" Suddenly, he started rustling her hair and she whined.

"Ah, Roxas!" She started chasing him and they went into the bedroom. Max pushed him onto the bed and she tripped over the mat and landed in an awkward position. Then something flashed again.

They blocked out everything else and were so close. Never this close. Any movement at all would have there lips together.

But what made Max snap into reality were Roxas' lips on hers. This seemed to calm her down and she sighed with delight as she melted into the kiss. They switched places and now, Roxas was on top of her. She wrapped her arms around his neck and deepened the kiss.

"Um…" Instantly, they pulled away and looked at Demyx. "Dinner's ready."

"Oh, okay." Maximum said.

Demyx turned around and walked up to the door. He looked back at the lovebirds. "Guys," Roxas and Max looked up at him "your secret's safe with me, don't worry about it."

"Thank you Demyx." Roxas smiled.

"Thanks Demy!" She grinned and Demyx gave them the thumbs up.
