Sakura here. I know it's been a long time since I updated The Disappearance, but I kinda derped on that so it might not be finished. It's essentially on hiatus, but I might finish it in the future.
While that's out there, here's a new fanfic for all of you! Sora and Roxas, Spring Break, romance, and TWINCEST. Yes, twincest.
This is being co-written with Mokey, my wonderful friend and co-writer for some fanfics. But only some. Disappearance was all me. Forget Me Not was a cowrite that never really continues. But anyway... Enjoy the story! I quite enjoyed writing Sora's part and Mokey enjoyed writing Roxas' part, so I hope you have an equally good time reading it!
Worlds Apart, Hearts Together
"You didn't know when to stop... You just had to keep digging and digging, huh?"
"Wha-I-Uh-"
"Shut up."
Chapter 1
It was yet another warm summer day that just so happened to be in the dead of winter. The Destiny Islands were truly a paradise: warm weather year-round, an amazing beach, and a small, wholesome, tight-knit community. It was everything that a young couple wanting to find a nice place to raise their twin boys could want and so much more.
That is, until they divorced.
They were young. It was a mistake. And now they had fallen for other people.
The blonde father took his blonde son in to raise in the large city of Twilight Town on the mainland, three hours away.
The fair, chocolate-haired mother would stay in the archipelago to raise the younger twin, who shared her same hair color.
That was 13 years ago.
"Sora, time for breakfast!"
A mass of spiky brown hair moved, tugging the covers up over itself. It was too early in the morning to be doing anything. On top of that, it was still winter break.
"Sora, if you don't get up, I'll have to take all these scones for myself!"
He rolled out of bed and onto the floor, groaning at the hard impact. On top of all that, Sora had literally gotten up on the wrong side of the bed yet again. However, this never seemed to ruin his day as proved by how quickly and eagerly he brushed his teeth and dressed himself. Sora ran downstairs and almost tripped over his own foot and fell into the table housing the eight-thousand dollar vase his mother had gotten as a ten-year anniversary present while sliding over to the dining table to plant himself in the closest chair. There were indeed scones, seducing him with their steaming hotness and the open jar of blackberry jam located adjacent to the decorated porcelain they were posing provocatively on. Sora licked his lips and reached for the largest scone on the plate, holding it gently so as not to burn his fingers. He took the well-placed knife and neatly sliced the pastry in half, then plunged the knife into the open jam jar, scraping a large heap of blackberry goodness out and onto the bottom half of the piping hot scone. Sora licked his lips and carefully placed the top half on the bottom half, trying not to squeeze any jam out. Success. He proceeded to take a bite before he was caught in the act of shameless food consumption without acknowledging his elders. A hand slapped his shoulder firmly and shook it slightly, the owner of said hand laughing mirthfully.
"Nice entrance, Sora! Your mother and I hope to see more like that!"
With crumbs on his lips and an uneaten scone in his hand, Sora turned around to face his stepfather.
Zack Fair was a tall, muscular man. His eyes were bright and honest while his raven-black hair was spiked backward in a considerate manner. He was friendly, but could be intimidating when necessary. One example being this current situation.
While this intimidating exchange was occurring, Sora's mother had entered the dining room with a tray stacked with more scones, blueberry and blackberry intermingled with plain. But Sora would not get a single one of these until this talk was had.
It always happened like this. They would lure him out of his room with scones and ask him to take care of an errand or something. Sora didn't like running errands. Their house was all the way on the other side of the island from the shopping district, and the only means of transportation Sora had was his two left feet. Sora sighed and pouted. All he really wanted was to eat scones. He looked up at his mother and asked, "What do you want me to buy at the store...?"
Sora's mother laughed her light, clear laugh that always brightened up the room. "I ordered all the groceries this time. You just need to bring them back, okay?"
Sora smiled and breathed outward in defeat. "Okay, mom..." he sighed as he walked over to get his sneakers on.
After he had left the room, Zack asked in a hushed tone, "Are you really sure this is a good idea, Aerith?"
Aerith smiled and set down her tray of scones, walking over to plant a gentle kiss on Zack's forehead. "I'm sure it'll work out fine... Cloud and I both agreed that they should see each other someday..." she sighed, then continued, "I just… Felt like I couldn't see him again..."
Zack kissed Aerith gently on the cheek. "I think this plan is brilliant, honey... And it was a mutual decision, so it's okay." Aerith merely smiled and planted a gentle kiss on Zack's lips before going over to put the leftover bribe scones away.
Roxas's eyes slowly opened as he rolled over onto his side. This bed wasn't the same as his bed back home... The sheets were different too. This whole place was different. This wasn't the city. This was the small, peaceful Destiny Islands. Roxas had come here with his friends on spring break, and they were staying in a nice beach house paid for by Mr. Cloud Strife, the boy's father. And though most people would kill for a nice vacation to the paradise that was Destiny Islands, Roxas didn't. Roxas had never left the big city of Twilight Town. Well, at least he didn't really remember any other place. He knew that he had been born elsewhere, but as far as he was concerned, he didn't care about where that place was. He loved the city. He loved his little apartment that he shared with his mom and dad. He knew the woman he lived with wasn't really his mom, but she cared for him as if she were, and he had grown up with her in his life. As far as he cared, he didn't need his biological mother. If she didn't bother to even talk to him... The blond quickly shook his head. He tried not to think about that too much.
Roxas could hear the voices and laughter of his friends in the other room. The boy sat up and stretched his arms out, letting a still sleepy yawn escape his lips. He glanced around the unfamiliar room before standing up and making his way to the living room. The room had white rugs, white walls, and soft cream tinted furniture, completely washed in natural light. Suddenly an outburst came from one of the boys with his face pressed against the window.
"WOW! LOOK AT THE WATER! IT'S SO BLUE! AND THE SAND! Come on, guys! Let's go to the beach already!" Roxas could recognize that voice anywhere. It was Demyx. He was a weird mix of lazy and hyperactive, but he was a good guy. A chuckle came from the redhead next to Demyx as he elbowed the overexcited blonde.
"Come on, we gotta wait for Roxas!" The redhead's name was Axel, and he knew Roxas better than anyone. The two had been best friends as long as they could remember. Axel, being a year older than the boy, protected him as if he were his own brother. Then again, he also teased him like a brother.
Roxas couldn't help but smile before speaking. "Right here, guys," he chuckled softly and looked around the room. Demyx and Axel were looking out at the beautiful view of the beach. In the distance, small islands could be seen floating out in the sea. They didn't seem too far off. The blond recalled reading something about boat rides to the secluded islands where groups could throw bonfires. He looked over to the couch to see Zexion quietly reading a book as usual. He was always pretty quiet, but when he did speak, he knew exactly what he was talking about. Roxas met him in the library one day, and they had been friends ever since. He took a seat on the couch and asked curiously. "Where are Namine and Xion?"
"Over here!" Two soft, yet playful voices interjected from the hallway as the two girls walked out of their rooms, freshly washed up for their day. They headed into the bright living room and took a seat.
"So!" Namine started, looking around at the boys crowding the living room, still in their sleepwear. "What are we going to do about breakfast?"
"Yeah, I'm starving!" Demyx whined out a bit, falling back onto the floor lazily.
Zexion sighed and peeked up over his book, looking at the dirty blonde. "I could cook, however I don't believe we have any ingredients in the refrigerator. Unless you count that ice cream we got last night."
Roxas looked to the window, noticing the bright sunny weather. "I'll walk down to the store." He smiled at his friends brightly. "You guys can all stay here and relax."
Axel smirked at Roxas and ruffled the blonde's hair. "My, my, Roxy's all grown up now~" the redhead cooed. Roxas slapped Axel's hand away and punched the skinny male in the shoulder playfully. "I'll be back before you know it, guys. Don't destroy the place while I'm gone!" Roxas yelled over his shoulder as he took off on his skateboard towards the store.
The Destiny Islands really were a beautiful place. The sun beamed down onto the white sand beaches that eventually faded into a stunningly deep blue ocean. As soon as the ocean ended, the light blue sky began, where fluffy white clouds slowly glided along. Roxas skated along the path, taking his time as he took in his surroundings. He saw the small grocery store ahead and smiled, knowing he was almost there.
The boy shut his eyes, feeling the wind blow through his honey blond hair when suddenly, his skateboard hit something and rolled under him, causing him to lose his balance and fall face first onto...a person?
Oh no... Roxas thought to himself. Back home in Twilight Town, a guy could get beat up and mugged for bumping into someone like this... Please... I hope this guy has no hard feelings... Roxas looked up to see a boy with eyes just as blue as the sky, and spikes of brown hair. But his face was what astounded Roxas the most... This guy... He looks just like me!
