Happy AkuRokuDem day, everyone!

I felt the need to at least write something for this day, and so I came up with this.

One of Those Days

1. Dolphins

“Man, I can’t believe it’s been a whole year since we were last on this ferry,” Demyx remarked, leaning over the balcony to stare down into the water below. He smiled when he saw a couple of dolphins racing alongside of the large boat.

“That’s because we never have a reason to go to the mainland,” Axel said as he readjusted his black visor. “Why are we going to the mall again? It’s not like we can buy anything there since that crap’s so expensive.”

Roxas turned around to lean his back against the railing and get his face away from the bright sun. He wished he had thought to bring a hat like Axel’s. “It’s back-to-school week, so there are going to be sales. We might be able to get a few things.”

“Great,” Axel muttered sarcastically. “That means there are going to be tons of people there. I hate crowds.”

“You’ll get over it!” Demyx chirped, looking as though he were about ready to climb over the railing to jump in the water and join the dolphins. He liked water far too much. “And it’s not like it’s the weekend. There shouldn’t be too many people. You worry too much.” He glanced around to see how many people were around and then put one foot up onto the rail. “Look at the cute dolphins!” he exclaimed, pointing down at the frolicking creatures.

“Are you ignoring me?” Axel demanded as Demyx put another foot onto the railing. His eyes widened comically as he finally realized what Demyx was up to. “Hey! Demyx, get off of the rail!”

“There is no way that is safe…” Roxas muttered, refusing to turn around and look.

“Weeee!”

SPLASH!

“DEMYX!” Axel roared while Roxas groaned and buried his face in his hands. “Get back up here on the boat! Damn it! Why do you always do that?!”
