WARNING: YAOI!!! AKUROKU AND RIKUXSORA!
RATING MAY GO UP!!
OOOOOOOOOOOO
"IT'S TODAY! IT'S TODAY! IT'S TODAAAAY!!!"
Roxas groaned and pulled the covers over his head. He could hear his overly-hyper twin brother bound through the hallways as he screamed at the top of his lungs.
"I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT TODAY IS FINALLY HERE!!! ROXAS!!"
Roxas literally cringed as his name rang through the walls. He snuggled deeper into the warmth of his blankets. Roxas was NOT a morning person. In fact, many say that he was the complete opposite of his twin brother, Sora. Ironic, isn't it?
Then Roxas heard something that sounded suspiciously like his door was kicked open. Sigh. Maybe if he didn't move he could turn invisible.
"ROXAS!!! ROXAS ROXAS ROXAAAAAS!!!" Sora bolted from said door and leaped onto Roxas' bed and started jumping up and down.
Roxas cursed under his breath as his body flew up and down off the bed.
"SORA!!" Roxas had enough as he sprang upright, blankets wrapped tightly around his arms. "GET THE HELL OUT OF MY ROOM!!!"
Sora stopped bouncing on the bed and plopped down on his butt near the edge. His deep sapphire blue eyes shining with excitement as he looked at his blonde brother.
Roxas glared at his cinnamon haired twin. He could tell by the way Sora was shifting around so much, that something was gonna happen. Something that HE wasn't gonna like.
"What is wrong with you? Did mom let you eat the sugared cereal again?" Roxas asked flatly, half serious.
Sora clicked his tongue and rolled his eyes in a girly fashion. Honestly, Roxas still couldn't believe that Sora had a girlfriend. But it wasn't like he could say anything, he himself hasn't had a girlfriend since sixth grade.
"Ro-xas…" he whined, "Do you honestly forget what's happening today?" he said bouncing up and down anxiously.
Roxas blinked.
"Roxas!" Sora huffed. "We're going on the super fantastic awesomely amazing trip today!!! For two weeks!!! All the way to California!! Remember now!?"
Roxas groaned and dragged his hands down his face. He forgot all about that trip. His mom had it planned for weeks! But that still didn't make Roxas want to actually go. In fact, he would rather sit home on his lazy ass all day and play video games. It's not like Roxas was ungrateful, it's just that…
It was a road trip…across the country…in a RV! Can you believe it!? An RV!! It would have embarrassed Roxas worst then the marshmallow bowling incident that happened at Riku's twelfth birthday party. Seriously…don't ask.
"Ugh, I can't believe mom is making us do this stupid road trip to Hell." Roxas grumbled as he rubbed his palms over his eyes.
Sora pouted and delicately hopped off the bed.
"Aww, come on Roxas! It's not that bad! I mean Riku's coming!" he practically squealed.
Roxas resisted the urge to slap Sora on the back of the head. Instead he chose to sigh hopelessly at his brother's stupidity.
"Sora, of course Riku's coming, so is his mom, duh!" Roxas said, wrapping his blankets closer as the warmth seeped out.
Their mom Brittany, and Riku's mom, Brielle, were best friends since their high school days. So it was only natural that Sora and Riku would be best friends since birth. Well almost, Riku was two years older then Sora, but that didn't matter. They were inseparable.
The only time Roxas hung out with Riku, was when Sora was with them, other then that… um yeah, nothing really. Hey, Roxas had his own friends too!!
Okay, he lied. Roxas only had ONE friend, his best friend.
Axel Schmitt.
Axel and Riku were in the same grade, juniors to be precise. While Roxas and Sora were mere freshmen. They all went to the same school of Twilight High, and they usually met up with each other at lunch.
He first met Axel in middle school. Eh, long story short, Axel saved him from the school bully Seifer. They were pals ever since.
Anyways… His mom said that they would each be able to bring one friend along with them on the trip. It was easy enough to put that Roxas would ask Axel to come along. But it surprised him that Axel's mom actually let him go.
At first Roxas thought that Axel would only come because he felt bad for Roxas, but later, Roxas found out that Axel had already been packed for days in anticipation. He laughed as he thought about his pyromaniac of a friend. Yes, Axel liked to play with fire.
Sora looked at his brother with his head tilted to the side curiously.
"Umm, hellooo? Roxas? Anybody home?" he waved his hand in front of Roxas' face for good measure.
Roxas snapped out of his inner monologging and whipped his head at Sora almost too quickly.
"What?" he asked obliviously.
Sora put his hand on his hip.
"Come on! Mom wants us downstairs!! That was half the reason I came up here in the first place." He said giggling to himself. He spun around quickly and frolicked out the door.
Roxas grimaced as he angrily threw his comforter off his body. He shivered slightly as the chill air settled around him. He flipped onto his stomach and began stretching limbs like a cat. He let out a content sigh and slid off the bed.
He padded over to his dresser and opened the drawers, pulling out whatever was on top. He quickly stripped of his boxers and shirt, and pulled on the clean clothes. He got a whiff of the laundry detergent his mom used as he slid a tight long-sleeved shirt over his head.
He strode over to the mirror to quickly glance over himself. His golden blonde hair stuck up to one side as usual, he ruffled his hair roughly and tried to pat it down, but it refused to cooperate with him. It still remained the same, mocking him. He grabbed his checkered wristband off his desk as he walked out the door.
Down in the kitchen, their mom Brittany was talking on the phone excitingly to Brielle. Her shoulder length, dirty blonde hair tied loosely in a rough ponytail. She was bouncing around the kitchen with her cell phone glued to her ear as she served her children breakfast.
"Mom! Sora won't give me the syrup!!" cried a ten year-old blonde girl. She pouted at her syrupless waffles with teary eyes.
Brittany grunted and told Riku's mom that she would call her back. She threw the dish rag she was holding over onto her shoulder as she pocketed her cell phone.
"Sora." She said lowly. "Give your little sister the syrup, I hate how you always torment her!" she said rubbing her temples.
Sora swallowed the waffles he was chewing on and closed the syrup cap. He licked his lips happily and handed it over the table to his little sister.
"Here ya go Namine!" Namine shyly took the bottle. Sora smiled evilly. "You owe me a noggie later though."
Namine visibly paled and she clung to the syrup bottle like a life line.
"Mooooooooooom!"
"I'm just kidding Nami!!" Sora laughed off, patting her blonde hair from across the table, "So! You ready for the best trip EVA!?!" He shouted as he half leapt onto the table.
Namine's eyes brightened.
"Oh yes! Of course!" She giggled as she poured syrup on her slightly burnt waffles. "I told all my friends about it! They're all excited for me!" Her laughter died a bit as she glanced over to her mom. "But I still don't understand why I couldn't have one of MY friends come!!" She said pouting at her mother.
Brittany sighed as she picked up Sora's empty plate from the table.
"Na-mine!" she sang. "We've already been through this!"
"But mooooom!! How come Sora and Roxas get to have their friends on the trip!?" Namine asked rudely.
"Because sweetie, Sora and Roxas are fifteen and you're only ten." She said smartly as she started scrubbing Sora's dirty plate.
Namine "hmph'd" and shoved a forkful of waffle in her mouth and chomped angrily. Sora sniggered and Namine shot him the toughest glare a ten year-old could muster.
"Shut up Sowa!" she said through a mouthful of waffle. "Mommy wouldn't let you take Kairi!"
Sora's face fell slightly at the comment and she simply shrugged.
"Mom doesn't want my girlfriend to come cause we'd be kissing all the time!!" he said is a mushy voice.
"Ew." Namine's nose wrinkled. "Grown-ups are gross!" she said frowning.
Sora let out a breath and put his hands behind his head and leaned back on his chair.
"Ah, well, Riku's coming anyways! We haven't been hanging out as much since I started dating!" he grinned. "It'll be just like old times."
Namine smiled and nodded, her cheeks full of waffle.
"Ya. That would be great! Riku's nice." She said the last part quieter as her face tinged a slight pink. Sora laughed. Everyone knew that Namine had a little crush on Sora's best friend. It was cute.
Footsteps were heard coming down the stairs as Roxas finally decided to join his family.
Brittany smiled warmly as Roxas entered the kitchen and sat next to Namine. He was still rubbing the sleepiness out of his eyes.
"Awww!" Brittany cooed, gazing lovingly at the table while she was hugging her dish rag.
All of her children looked at her like she was on crack. Roxas even looked up.
"You are all so cute, when you're together at the table!" she said preparing some breakfast for Roxas, smiling to herself.
Roxas groaned as rolled his eyes.
Brittany pouted and walked over to him, slamming the plate of food in front of him.
"You just ruined the moment." She said to Roxas as she looked him in the eye. Roxas just glared at her. She sighed. "Roxas come on! You're the only one who isn't excited about the trip!!"
Roxas picked up a fork and started poking his waffles.
"Well this whole thing is stupid to begin with…" he said, hating the world at the moment.
"I thought you would be excited about missing two weeks of school." She said dejected, putting her hands on her hips. "Don't you wanna spend time with your family?"
"What's the point if dad isn't even coming…" Roxas rested his elbow on the table and leaned on his hand as he propped his head up.
Brittany took her rag and whipped it at the back of Roxas' head. Namine and Sora snickered but immediately went silent when Brittany shot a glare at them.
"Roxas! Your father is going on a business trip! It's really important and he had to go if he wanted to keep his job. Besides, it'll just be me and Brielle watching over you guys! We're easy going! Won't that be fun?" Roxas just stared at her. Brittany whacked him with the rag again. "Eat your waffles honey."
Roxas slowly started to nibble on the end of a waffle. He wasn't very hungry. His life has ended for all he knew. It was going to be complete and utter chaos for the next two weeks.
Namine poked Roxas gently in the side of his ribs. Roxas jumped and clutched his side. He turned towards Namine angrily.
"What?!" He hissed.
Namine giggled about Roxas' weak spot. Everybody knew that if you just poked him in the side, it would make him jump five feet. He was extremely ticklish, but he HATED to admit it.
"Um…" she twirled her pale blonde hair around her finger. "Why don't you wanna go? You're making everyone sad!" she said pouting again.
Roxas sighed and smiled slightly. He ruffled Namine's hair, ignoring her shrieks of protest.
"Well, I don't know about you, but I think this trip is gonna be boring." He retorted, biting his waffle.
Namine cocked her head to the side, her blonde hair bouncing slightly.
"But, at least you get to have Axel come! Mommy wouldn't let me have any of my friends over!!" She complained.
Roxas thought for a moment and laughed to himself. She was right, it would probably be five million times worse if his best friend wasn't coming.
"Thanks Nami!" he patted her hair as she looked at him confused. He shoved the rest of his waffle into his mouth and grabbed his black backpack that was leaning against the wall. "Ready to go Sora?" he asked, pulling on his checkered Vans.
"Ya! Hold on!" Sora grabbed one of the uneaten waffles remaining on Roxas' plate and shoved it into his mouth. He grabbed his red shoulder bag off the couch while pulling on his yellow and gray sneakers. He hopped over to Roxas. "Ready!" he said saluting, munching on the waffle hanging from his mouth.
"Okay! Mom! We're leaving!" Roxas said as he opened the front door.
"Wait! Wait! Wait!!" Brittany rushed over to her boys and quickly kissed them both on the forehead, they both groaned in union. "Now, boys! Don't forget that me and Brielle are picking up you, Riku, AND Axel from school, okay? We're gonna be leaving early for the trip! We're gonna pick up the RV today!" She said looking at them both as her arms rested on both of their shoulders.
Roxas wiped his forehead. "Yeah, yeah. We know!"
Brittany gave them a quick one armed hug and then shoved them out the door.
"Hurry up you two! You'll miss the bus!" She yelled before closing the door.
Roxas and Sora rolled their eyes and started walking down the sidewalk to the end of their urban street.
Back inside, Brittany faced Namine who was still eating her waffles. She blew a strand of dirty blonde hair out of her face and sat down at the table.
"Hi mommy!" Namine said happily. She didn't have to leave for school until another half hour.
Brittany smiled and tucked a strand of hair behind her ear.
"Hey Namine, wanna skip school and help Riku's mommy and me pick up the RV? I'll even let you pick out the color!" she said slyly, her bright blue eyes gleaming.
Namine's similar eyes lit up as a wide smile tugged on her lips.
XXXXXXXXXX
"Dude! I'm so excited!! I can't fucking wait!!" announced a tall crimson haired boy. His long skinny arms pumped into the air as he let out a whoop.
"Axel…" Roxas warned. "Why do you always have to attract attention to yourself!" he glanced around the lunch room to see several people sneaking glances at the pair sitting across from each other.
"Heh, sorry man!" His acid green eyes brimmed with amusement of how easily Roxas gets flustered. "It's just that my dad never takes me on vay-kay!" Roxas rolled his eyes at the word Axel uses for 'vacation'.
"Yeah…" Roxas' eyes fell a bit. "Sorry about the divorce. I always thought your parents loved each other, it was just so sudden."
Axel waved him off, still grinning.
"Don't worry bout it, my dad is still awesome! It was my mom who cheated on my dad after all!" he said leaning back on his chair and balancing on the back two legs. "My mom was a hoe."
"You shouldn't talk about her like that, I mean, she's still your mom." Roxas said idly, munching on a chip that he snuck from Axel.
"Well, DUH! You're mom is awesome! She lets you do whatever you want! I'm so fucking glad I'm comin' on vay-kay with you Rox!! It's gonna be sweeeet!" he said resting his feet on the table, grinning like the Cheshire Cat.
Roxas nodded and smiled at his tattooed friend. He just sighed happily, glad to finally be with his best friend.
"Well, I'm glad you're coming with me. Otherwise it would have just been my family and Riku's." Roxas said flicking a piece of food off the table at some random kid.
"Oh, that reminds me." Axel said as he scratched the side of his face. "How's Kairi and Sora doin'?"
Roxas huffed and raised his eyebrows.
"Oh, I don't know…mom wouldn't let Sora bring her because she's a girl, ya know? She's probably afraid that her teenage boys with be taken over by our raging hormones." Roxas laughed a bit, but it died slowly since he got no response from Axel. His red headed friend simply stared at him with a look that Roxas couldn't quite determine. "Axel…you okay?" Roxas asked tapping on Axel's black converse that still rested upon the table.
Axel slowly looked away from Roxas and his gaze trailed to the floor. Roxas' brows furrowed.
"Yo Axel!" He barked, annoyed. Axel seemed to snap out a trance.
"Huh? Oh! What up Roxy?" He asked cheerfully. His mood just took a serious swing. Roxas eyed him suspiciously.
"Eh, never mind, it's not important." Roxas said quickly, shaking his head.
An awkward silence fell over the lunch table.
Axel clicked his tongue and looked at the ceiling, wondering how much of the shit they call cafeteria food was flung up there. They leave nasty brown stains after the food fell back down. He smiled when he saw the demented smiley face he and Roxas made earlier in the year by catapulting ketchup on the ceiling with spoons. Roxas tried to start conversation again.
"So um-"
BLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!!!!
"HO SHIT!" Axel yelped as he lost balance on his chair and fell down to the cafeteria floor.
"AXEL!!" Roxas flew out of his own chair and climbed over the plastic table in a hurry. He jumped down and knelt next to Axel who was clutching his head.
"Ow! Ow! Ow! Shit! Fuck! Ow!" He hissed, biting his tongue to keep from groaning in pain. "What the hell was that!?" he asked rubbing his head furiously.
Roxas grabbed Axel's hand and pulled him up to his feet. He looked around and saw that everyone's attention was turned towards the huge window that took up the whole wall. It was in the front of the school so if you looked out you would see the parking lot.
Ignoring Axel's pained curses, Roxas stood on his tippy-toes and tried to crane his neck around the people in front of his view. He huffed angrily and turned back to Axel, who's eyes were clenched tightly.
BLEEEEEEEP!!! BLEEEEEEEP!!! BLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!!!
A loud horn blared through the school. Roxas winced and Axel opened one eye to see where the noise was coming from.
For some reason, everyone started laughing as the continued to look outside. Roxas stomped the ground like a spoiled princess who didn't get her matching sugar ponies. He damned the heavens for giving him such a short body.
"Axel! I can't see!!" He glared as Axel tried to hold back a laugh, "You're taller! Can you see anything outside?" Roxas asked, curiosity creeping into his mind. He watched as Axel stood up to his full height, practically a full foot taller then poor Roxas. If he had to guess, he would sat the Axel was one of the tallest people in the whole school. Axel hopped up and down to try and see over the crowd that started to form in front of the massive window.
"Damn! Can't see shit! Come on!" He grabbed Roxas' hand and dragged him to the back of the crowd. Roxas felt his hand heat up as Axel held it tightly, he ignored the reaction and stayed close to Axel as they shoved their way to the front of the cluster.
There were too many people to get through and the other students finally started to push them back. Axel's face lit up as he thought of a plan.
"Quick Roxy!" he kneeled down. "Get on my shoulders!"
"What!? No!" Roxas suddenly felt self conscience. "I'm too heavy." He mumbled, looking away.
Axel rolled his eyes and yanked Roxas' arm. Roxas squeaked as he was lifted easily off the ground and was jammed on top of Axel's shoulders. Axel slowly stood up and the blonde scrambled to keep balance, his face tuning a bit red at the situation. He was holding onto Axel's flaming red locks like reins. Axel's hands gripped Roxas' ankles tightly, the smaller of the two knew that Axel wouldn't drop him. He towered over everyone now! A few faces looked up and looked bewildered once they saw how he was perched on Axel's shoulders.
"Whatcha' see Roxy?" Axel asked, squeezing his ankles. Roxas could feel Axel's voice vibrate through his legs and lower adnominal. He bit his lip and looked out the window.
He froze.
"No fucking way…" Roxas growled, his hands tightening around Axel's hair. Axel winced and hopped a bit to get Roxas' attention. Roxas clung to Axel's head tighter to keep his balance, his heart racing. He glared down at Axel and kicked his legs which thudded against Axel's chest. "Come on! We need to get outside right now…" He said through his teeth.
"Hell no!! We'll get in trouble!" He said turning away from the window and walking out of the crowd. Roxas kicked his legs again.
"When has that ever stopped you before!?" Roxas cried, kicking again. Axel paused.
"True!" he said thinking about it. "And stop kicking me like I'm your horse or something!" Roxas stopped his feet from their rampage. Axel let go of his ankles and gently let Roxas slide down his back and to the ground. Roxas almost tripped over his Vans as he stood back up. He grabbed Axel's hoodie sleeve and tried dragging him to the door.
"Come! Out! Side! Now!" he demanded, giving a tug for each word. Axel laughed as followed Roxas as they exited the cafeteria.
They ran past a teacher who started yelling at them, but the ignored her and proceed to burst out though the front doors of Twilight High.
BLEEEEP! BLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!
"Roxas!!! Over here!!"
Both the boys stopped in their tracks at the sight before them.
His mom was hanging out the passenger's window of a HUGE ASS RV. She was waving frantically trying to get his attention. Next to her, was Riku's mom Brielle, honking the horn. One of the side windows opened to reveal a little blonde girl, who also started waving, yelling Roxas' name.
"Hi honey!!!!" his mom shouted at the top of her lungs.
Oh yeah, and the RV was bright pink…
Roxas' face was burning. It was almost as red as Axel's hair. He hung his head and tried to ignore the immense heat radiating off his face. He could hear the people laughing from the cafeteria, he looked over to the window and saw that everyone was pointing and laughing at him. He found his shoes very interesting at the moment.
Axel was speechless. His mouth keep opening and closing like a fish. He slowly took in a deep.
"OH MY GOD!! WE HAVE A GAY BUS!!!!!" Axel shouted at the top of his lungs right in Roxas' face. Then Axel laughed like a mad man, picking up Roxas and twirling him around once or twice. Roxas yelped as he tried to get out of Axel's arms. After Roxas was placed back onto earth, Axel then dropped to his knees dramatically on the concrete. "THIS IS GONNA BE THE BEST VAY-KAY EVER!!!" Axel's voice rang through Roxas' head.
Axel grabbed Roxas' wrist in a death grip and ran over to the RV. Roxas following closely behind.
"OMG! I CALL TUMOR!!" He said quickly, raising his hand. Roxas gave him a 'wtf-are-you-on-crack' look.
"Tumor…" Roxas slowly repeated. Axel nodded excitedly.
"Ya! See the part that hangs out over the driver's seat?!" he said pointing to the part of the RV that jutted out above the front seats. Roxas nodded slowly. "Well it's really a bed on the inside, but from the outside it looks like the car had a brain-tumor or something. And I call sleeping there!!"
"Hey! I wanted to sleep there!" Roxas complained.
"Don't worry! We're all gonna have to share beds, so you can both sleep there!" Brittany shouted to them as her body threatened to fall out the window. Her grin almost blinded Roxas. "Now get in!!"
Axel beamed and flung open the door, he bolted inside, still holding onto Roxas' wrist.
The first thing that Roxas noticed was that it was cramped. All the way down to the left was an average sized bed, followed by a small room that contained the toilet and shower. Right across from the door was a small kitchen area. Roxas didn't get to look too long because he was yanked to the right by Axel. Which led to a sitting area. It had a table on one side and a lounge couch on the other.
In the front of the car there was a walkway which led to the driver's seat. Where Brielle was sitting, grinning back at the two boys. In the passenger seat, sat Brittany with a similar grin. Both beaming crazy-psycho mom rays at them.
"Hi Mrs. Skiba!!" Axel said, waving to Brittany. "Ms. Dias!" he said nodding at Brielle. "We call tumor!" he said lifting Roxas and his arm together.
Axel looked up above the driver's seat and saw Namine innocently sitting in the middle of the bed that was placed up onto the over-sized tumor shelf.
"Alright Namine, out!" Axel said, jutting a thumb over his shoulder. "Me and Roxy called tumor!"
Namine shook her head. "No! I wanna sleep up here!"
"Nope! Sorry!" Axel grabbed Namine's sandaled feet and dragged her towards the edge of the bed. She squealed and tried to grip the thin fabric that hugged the tumor's bottom. Axel finally succeeded in detaching Namine from the bed, and he threw her on the couch, where she giggled as she bounced up and down on the cushy softness.
"Yay Rox! We get tops!!" he shouted victoriously, climbing onto the bed/shelf, and proceeded to make himself comfortable. Roxas followed him, struggling to get up. Axel grabbed him by the back of his shirt and hoisted him up next to himself. Axel looked around the tumor.
"Well, it is a little small, for me that is." He paused to laugh at Roxas' face.
Then a 'thump' was heard from outside. Roxas opened the small window and stuck his head out. He laughed a little when he saw Sora hugging the side of the hot pink RV, rubbing his face against it. Riku stood behind him, shaking his head slightly. Apparently he had impaled himself against the vehicle and was now molesting it.
"I love this RV!! I wanna name it Riva!!" Sora said petting it. Riku grabbed his shoulder and gently led him inside. Sora bolted inside and hugged Brittany.
"OHMIGOSH! YOU'RE THE BEST MOMMY EVER!!!" he squealed at the top of his lungs, squeezing Brittany, who just laughed along with Brielle. Sora bounded out of the driver's room and jumped on Riku's back from behind. "WOW RIKU!! ISN'T THIS THE BESTEST!!!" Riku just nodded stiffly as he attempted to walk down the narrow hallway with Sora clinging onto his back.
Roxas laughed and turned towards Axel, who's eyes were fixed on the happy atmosphere below them. He smiled to himself as he hugged his knees. Maybe this trip wouldn't be as bad as he thought it would….
