[KH] Fire and Moonlight: Switch (60), challenge ed

Fire & Moonlight, a Kingdom Hearts fanwork:  Drabble challenge by Wishing-Fire, written by Raberba girl
Switch (Theme 60) [Challenge edition] {rough draft}

Summary:  Roxas has a dilemma.

A/N:  Takes place before the final scene of the Days manga, volume 2.

Argh, both Saïx & Roxas are a little OOC (Roxas should hate him more), and it's SaiRoku and RokuShi rather than AkuSai, but I don't care anymore. DX

It was nearly midnight.  Why was someone awake and wandering around at this hour?

...Well, obviously Saïx himself was up and about at this hour, but he had legitimate business to take care of.  Surely the young idiot Keybearer had no such excuse.

"Oh - hi, Saïx."

"Why aren't you in your room, Number XIII?"

"I'm not sleepy.  Xion's not in her room, either; do you know where she is?"

"I can't see why that would be any business of yours."

"Of course it's my business, we're friends!  I've been worried about her."

"You think you're cute, acting just like a human," Saïx said disapprovingly.  "It seems that certain members of our Organization have been a bad influence on you."

"Uh...okay."  It was obvious that Roxas had no idea what he was talking about.  "Saïx, do you know anything about girls' switches?"

Sacred moon, how in the world had they ended up in a conversation like this?  "...I suggest you take your questions on the matter to Axel."

"I did.  He just said that girls were complicated and I should leave them alone.  But I can't, I messed up and somehow I pressed Xion's switch without meaning to, and now she's mad at me and we can't eat ice cream anymore."

'Did he suffer a brain injury on his last mission?  What in the worlds is he talking about?'

"I've been trying to figure out how to tell her I'm sorry.  Demyx and Xigbar told me to buy her a dozen red roses, a box of chocolate, and something called longer-a, but I don't know where to get that stuff."

Saïx definitely needed to have a talk with Numbers II and IX.  Possibly a violent one.

"By the way, do you know what longer-a is?  Axel wouldn't tell me, he just said my ice cream was melting like he does when he's trying to change the subject."

"Such matters are no concern of a Nobody.  If this preoccupation of yours will be interfering with your mission performance, I insist that you clear things up with Number XIV as soon as possible."

"I'm trying!  But she's avoiding me."

"Write a note."

"Ohhh...that's a good idea, Saïx."

"Then go to bed.  Fatigue will negatively affect your mission performance as well."

"Okay."  Roxas set off at a more purposeful trot, and Saïx continued on in the other direction, hoping the matter was now settled.

Author's Notes:  Heh, this was drafted back when I was drowning in AkuShi from HAIW. ;;;
