Hmm... hello :) I've started another story, this time KH, woo. :) Please review after you read, reviews give you the inspiration to write the next chapter... which you will all want after this one . :D


No More Summer.

"Axel." Riku stared gob smacked at the person in front of him "Friggin Axel?" Sora shrugged, absentmindedly throwing his candy bar wrapper onto the ground besides them.

"Come on Riku, he's not that bad. Roxas is pretty pally with him."

"Yeah, Roxas. Roxas is friends with some right twats." Sora laughed, it dying off into a small chuckle before stopping completely. "..He might be staying over too..." Riku groaned, flopping his head into his knees, and scooting lower down the building wall they were both leaning against.

"All I wanted was a night out, nothing big. Then I find out he's coming, and then staying the night...again' Said Riku, his voice muffled. Sora frowned, sighing.

"We'll just disappear from them, go somewhere, right?" Riku sighed, his silver hair covering his face.

"Yeah. Doesn't Axel have anything better to do then go out with Sophomores?"

"Doesn't look like it." Grinned Sora.

"What a loser." Mumbled Riku, raising his head back up, just in time to see Axel and his gang walking past. Axel was leading the group, joking with Demyx, Larxene sighing and grumbling about something to Marluxia, and Zexion moping along at the end, hands tucked in pockets and staring at the floor. Axel stopped laughing, glancing over at Riku and Sora sat against the outer wall of the sports hall. He said something to Demyx, who nodded, the group carrying on out of sight while Axel walked over to them, an evil smirk on his face.

"Oh fuck." Snapped Riku quietly, waiting for Axel to come into talking distance.

"Alright you two?" He said sweetly, grinning like a mad man.

"Hi Axel." Said Sora bluntly. Riku had always wondered about Axel's sexuality, although had never been able to ask anyone about it. He assumed he was at least bi, he had to be. The incredibly tight black vest top clung to his torso like a second skin, his bright red jeans (Riku refused to acknowledge the fact they looked more like leather) Skimmed his calves and thighs, various silver flame patterns traveling up the leg, while several neon bracelets hung from his wrists, the tattoos on his cheeks standing out vividly, and his piercing turquoise eyes glinting at him. Riku blinked, a scowl crossing his face. He had to be bi, if not gay. Especially seeing how he had been last week before school started…

"Alright Rikukins?" Smirked Axel, kneeling down in front of him. "I enjoyed the summer." He said quietly, raising an eyebrow. "How about you."

"Fuck off." Snapped Riku, gritting his teeth when Axel put either hands aside of Riku's legs, his smirk becoming more evident as he leant closer, his face inches away from Riku.

"Maybe one day after school you can-"

"Axel get the hell away from him!" Yelled Sora, airily kicking the small space between Axel and Riku, causing Axel to swiftly step back, slowly standing up again, his gaze drifting from Sora to Riku.

"You little sophomores." He said, his gaze now fixed on Riku. "You'll know where your desires lie soon…." He said, smirking. Riku scowled, turning away and staring at his knees. "I'll see you two tonight then." He said, smiling and spinning on his heels, walking back up the deserted path behind the school, the way the others had gone, out of the back school entrance. Riku sighed, cursing at Axel's back.

"…man." Said Sora. "I thought he was just going through a faze in the summer…" Riku scoffed, angrily clenching his fists together.

"Obviously not. Why doesn't he get it? He's not my type." Sora laughed.

"I don't think Axel ever gets the message." Sora sighed at the sound of the bell, standing up, Riku shortly doing the same.

"Well I'm gonna make him." Said Riku, a determined glint in his eye. Sora smiled.

"Anyway, what have we got now? Maths?" Riku nodded, shoving his hands in his pockets. "Right!" Sora said cheerfully. "Let's go then!"

--

Riku was soon bored out of his head when his Maths teacher started to drone on about angular equations. He sighed, glancing over at Sora at the front of the room, who seemed to be in the exact same state, along with Roxas, the two had their head's resting on their desk, probably asleep. Riku sighed, rolling his eyes, and glancing up at the door when Larxene came in ten minutes late.

"Sorry." She mumbled grumpily, smirking and sitting down in her seat. Professor Hojo glanced at her, before shaking his head and continuing to talk about angles. Riku tore his eyes away from Larxene to look out of the window, surprised when he saw Axel, Marluxia, Demyx and Zexion in a small group outside. He glanced back at Larxene, wondering why she wasn't with them, before turning back to the window. Axel was talking to Zexion, messing his hair up and playfully pushing him. Zexion looked away, trying not to smile, but couldn't help it when Axel muttered something into his ear, and the shorter Zexion instantly burst out laughing. Axel grinned, glancing at his watch and shrugging, shouting something over to Marluxia who was almost deafened since he was right next to him. Axel smirked, dragging Marluxia out of view. Demyx waved to them, walking the opposite way, Zexion stood alone, looking back towards Axel and Marluxia, before quickly turning around and running after Demyx. Riku sighed, turning away. They had eventually decided to come to class then, well at least that's what it looked like. He discovered he was right, when Zexion came in, glancing at Larxene, and not saying anything before taking his seat in front of Riku. This time Professor Hojo slammed the book he was reading from onto the desk, glaring at Zexion.

"That is it! That's the third time you've been late this week, and it's only the first week back. Mr. Sixion, Detention, and you too Larxene." Larxene rolled her eyes, leaning back into her chair while Zexion just kept staring at his desk, unmoving. Riku frowned, realizing Zexion's black jacket seemed to have a few rips in it. He shrugged it off, not particularly bothered in the well fare of anyone who liked Axel. He sighed, painfully remembering when he had gone over to Sora's house, while Axel was there, seeing Roxas.

--

"So.. what we gonna be doing?" Riku heard a voice call from the room beyond them.

"Not too sure yet, come on, I think Sora ordered pizza.." Came Roxas' voice, who then stepped into the room, grinning at Sora and Riku who were sat on the sofa, pizza slices in hand. Roxas sat on the floor in front of them, Axel running into the room, shirt off and wearing a pair of black pajama pants.

"Hello you three." He said, smirking, grabbing a particularly large pizza slice, and slamming it into his mouth, catching sight of Riku, his eyes skimming him for a minute before passing the pizza box to Roxas, who happily accepted it, turning to the T.V to watch it, getting into conversation with Sora about which talent act should win.

"Sooo.." Purred Axel, getting from the floor and sitting next to Riku, almost painfully close. "I haven't seen you around before." Riku winced, moving as far away from him a possible, without killing Sora, who just laughed at them, turning back to the T.V and yelling in surprise when a name was called out. Axel raised at eyebrow, putting an arm around Riku.

"Riku." Mumbled Riku, trying to focus on the T.V, although Axel's thigh slowly finding it's way over Riku's was slightly distracting.

"Riku..." He said slowly, his bare torso pressing dangerously close to Riku's side. "...You wanna have a drink with me tonight.?"

"Fuck off." Snapped Riku, squeezing out of the sofa to sit on the floor next to Roxas, angrily fixing his glare onto the T.V. Axel smirked, laughing quietly, resorting to lightly resting his foot on Riku's head...

--

Riku sighed. That was only the first day. He glanced at the clock, realizing he finally only had ten minutes to go, seeing he'd only written half an answer down in his neat blue ink, he sighed, noting to himself he'd do it tonight. As much as he seemed to slack off, Riku never really got bad grades, in fact he always got good grades, somehow. Riku glanced up from his thoughts when Zexion turned around, his blue eyes narrowed at him.

"..Hey, er, Riku?" He said quietly, forcing a rare smile onto his face.

"What?" Asked Riku bluntly.

"..Well, errr. You think you could tell the others me and ." He paused. "Larxene are in detention? Seems like its gonna be pretty long and they're going somewhere...important. Think you could tell them, say they don't have to wait for us??" Riku sighed, shrugging and very aware of the fact he didn't want to talk to Axel.

"Alright." He said. Zexion smiled.

"Thanks." He said, turning back around.

Riku sleepily stood up at the sound of the bell, Sora and Roxas following him down the hallway, chatting.

"I just need to tell someone something." Said Riku to Sora. "Meet you in the canteen?" Sora smiled.

"Yeah sure. Roxas you coming to the canteen?" Roxas nodded, finding a couple of coins in his pocket.

"Yeah, I think Hayner said he was gonna be there.."

"'Kay, meet you later Riku." Riku said bye, walking up the hallway and outside in the opposite direction.

--

Riku didn't actually know where Axel and the others were, they usually went out of school at break, but seeing as they would be waiting for Zexion and Larxene, he considered looking for them just in front of the back entrance. Obviously, they were there. Axel joking around as usual, this time with Marluxia, and Demyx watching, saying something every now and then. Riku drew a breath, angry at himself for feeling nervous, he quickly walked up to them. Axel turned to him at the sound of footsteps, placing his lighter back in his pocket and taking a drag of his cigarette.

"..Riku." He said smiling, raising an eyebrow.

"Aaaah. So this is Riku." Said Marluxia, giving Axel a knowing glance, and taking a drag from his own cigarette, smirking at Demyx and nodding. Riku ignored them, staring directly at Axel.

"Zexion and Larxene are in detention and said you can go wherever you are going without them, now I'm going." He said, turning around and about to walk away, before a hand grasped around his wrist, pulling him back.

"Woah, hold on there sexy." Smirked Axel, chuckling and turning Riku to face him, ignoring the cold glare being sent his way. "What's the rush?" Riku shrugged his arm away from Axel's grasped, opening his mouth to speak before Axel butted in. "If I don't remember rightly, Sora and Roxas are twins, Sora's quite pally with that Hayner kid, so everyone's happy. You can stay here for a bit." He said, smiling.

"No thanks." Snapped Riku.

"Come on.." Pouted Axel, sharply wrapping his arm around Riku's waist, cigarette hanging from his mouth, dragging Riku closer to him.

"Axel let him go." Said Marluxia, rolling his eyes. Axel glanced at Marluxia, smirking, and spinning around so Riku was against the gate, Axel's arm around him.

"Bastard." Snapped Riku, not bothering to release himself from Axel's grip and standing weakly there, waiting for a chance to go.

"Lighten up, Riku." Smiled Axel, taking his cigarette out and throwing it on the ground, Demyx stamping on it, glancing at Riku and laughing.

"Kid, if he starts to molest you we'll pull his hair, that will stop him." Riku smirked, most of his vision being blocked by Axel, who was now laughing, but stepped even closer to Riku, kneeling down slightly to come eye level with the silver teen.

"Little Rikukins." He said quietly, his spare hand tugging lightly at Riku's blue shirt. "You never got back to me on that drink offer." He smirked, leaving his shirt to place his hand on Riku's hip, raising at eyebrow. Riku sighed, reclining from the touch but backing further into the gate kinda hurt.

"I've already told you, no." He said as calmly as he could. "Can I go now?" Axel stared at him for a moment, before sighing an pulling his hands away from Riku, stepping away and opening to gate.

"See you tonight then." He said, his toned suddenly incredibly pissed off. He walked out of sight, into Twilight town without a look back. Marluxia and Demyx followed, rolling their eyes and muttering something. Riku stood where he was for a few seconds, before snapping out of his odd, confused daze, and walking over to the cafeteria.
