Acrobatics

Sora x Riku

Roxas x Axel

"I can't believe they made us go here." Riku grumbled under his breath as he and Axel walked into a large circus tent brightly lit with scattered beams and murmuring people in the crowd, all excited to see the show they paid for. Riku just wanted to go home.

"Come on, Riku. Get out there some more. It's just a circus act. Who knows, someone cute may be up there and dying to meetcha!" The large muscular redhead ran a hand through his own hair as they sat down in the front row, the only place empty now. He doubted it, but doesn't mean he can't say them to his best friend.

"I know you don't believe your own words, Axel, so don't say them to me."

Or not.

Riku sighed quietly, staring out into the crowd as the ringmaster's voice barely made it to his tuned out ears. He wondered if there was any way he could find a cute and innocent boy who would want to experiment with him. Or maybe be his boyfriend? Playing for the other team sometimes was very difficult, and both he and Axel knew that they weren't easy people to please in the male category.

"And now, our new acrobat duo is taking the stage. Give a warm welcome to Sora and Roxas!"

Axel grumbled inwardly, pissed off that Riku was in his own little world and leaving him basically by himself. The applaud was modest, but it left much to be desired.

Suddenly, everyone was immediately silenced as the lights turned off inside the way too large circus tent. Two beams of light suddenly turned on, illuminating two figures below. Axel nearly choked on his drink when he saw them.

They were young, probably 16 at the most, but they looked much younger. One was a short brunette with bright, sky blue eyes And a mischevious smile of excitement on his face. His small tan frame was very slim and curvy, very pleasing to the eye. The other was a slightly taller, very fair blonde with startlingly cobalt blue eyes that held a noble-like look inside of them. His features were flat, yet he held a graceful air on his angel-like face. His body was also slim but had hidden muscles like a million promises. Both wore skin tight unitards that showed off their shoulders and had bright blue stripes across the front. Many belts were also attached, giving them a seductive look.

Axel realized if he wasn't in love yet, he was on his way to it now. He quickly nudged Riku rather roughly, earning a grunt and a, "What." Of recognition.

He pulled the white-haired boy's arm to turn him to the spectacle. "Look. Now."

Riku rolled his eyes and finally let his sea green orbs slide over to the stage where they widened slightly at the sight of the brunette slowly walking to the ring in the center of the stage. He took in the entire visual, and finally said, "Challenge accepted."

Both watched with equal fascination as the two grabbed the ring and were pulled up into the sky which illuminated to show many rings already dangling in the air. With a swing, both went to their own seperate sides and began doing fantastic flips and spins in the air, their bodies twisting into several different shapes that seemed impossible to the eye. Riku had his sights set on the smaller, sweeter looking boy while Axel had his eyes on the taller, more graceful blonde. They watched with such fascination it would be frowned upon if others knew the way they were watching.

All too soon, the act had finished. The boys leaped from their respective rings and landed after flipping several times in midair. The audience roared in approval and clapped far louder than any other act. Axel and Riku were also clapping loudly, smiles on both of their faces. "We should go say hello." Riku murmured.

Axel smiled lecherously and said, "Hell yeah!"
