Disclaimer: Tetsuya Nomura has a bunch of cute guys, I'm so jealous cuz I don't own them... :P sucks for me.
A/N: Hiya! I present to you a new story! ENJOY! :D
"Come on guys! It's an adventure!" Sora chimed, oblivious to the intense glares he was getting.
"Yeah, guys. Let's make the most of our summer!" Rena offered, smiling.
"Sora, if I wanted to make the most of my summer, I would have stayed home and written a book or something." Roxas huffed.
"Ah, cheer up, Rox. It might be fun. Plus, you probably can get more inspiration here." Axel grinned, slinging his arm on his boyfriend's shoulders.
Roxas huffed indignantly, trying to stop the blush from spreading across his cheeks. Unfortunately, this didn't go unnoticed by the only female in the group.
"Haha! Rox is blushing!" she squealed.
"Am not!" the blond replied, pouting cutely.
"I just have an effect on people. Especially my boyfriend." Axel smirked, enjoying the reddening face of his blond.
"Oh yeah. Random question here: Why didn't Reno join us? Usually he'd go overprotective over you." Riku suddenly questioned.
"He has work. And, at first, he didn't want me to go. I just argued with him until he finally agreed." Rena replied, running a hand through her scalp; a thing she usually did when she thought about something really hard, Riku noted, from previous observations.
No one spoke. Sora was a few feet ahead of them, finding a proper camping spot; Roxas and Axel were walking beside each other, fingers interlaced together. And, Riku and Rena were also walking beside each other, a few steps ahead of the couple; Rena was listening to the chirping birds, and Riku was enjoying the peacefulness.
"Here! This is where we're gonna camp." Sora grinned, running around the field.
"Wow. Nice pick, Sora." Rena said, staring at the small field in awe.
The place was nice and secluded, and had a lake right next to their camp site. Trees surrounded it and there was only one way in and one way out.
Sora threw his bag on the ground, screaming, "I get this spot!"
Everyone chose their own spot for a tent, and started getting their things.
They all decided to pitch her tent first.
"Crap!" she heard Axel groan. "I forgot my tent!"
'Hehe. I'm thankful that it's not-'
"Ohh. Crap." she looked around her things once more.
"Why? You forgot your tent too?" Riku suddenly asked.
"Yeah." she nodded, rubbing the back of her neck.
"Not sharing my tent with anyone!" Sora told them; his tent was already pitched up.
Everyone was alright with that.
"I'll share Roxas' tent!" Axel said joyfully, his arm wrapped around the blond's shoulders again.
"Who said anything about that?" Roxas countered.
"But you're my boyfriend. You have to agree!" Axel stared at him with wide, pleading eyes.
"Uh. Fine." Roxas agreed, which caused Axel to squeal like the gay-man he was and hug him.
"Axel's being such a drama queen today." Riku observed, from beside Rena.
"Yeah. But, he's funny like that." Rena replied solemnly, smiling at the site of a blushing Roxas chastising a really happy Axel.
"So, you're gonna have to share my tent." Riku blurted out.
Rena's face flushed a bit. Oh yeah, she'd forgotten that she had no tent.
"If it's alright with you..." she said.
"It's fine with me." Riku replied.
"Okay then. Thanks."
Riku patted the redhead's head, smiling a soft smile. "No problem kid."
She returned the smile, and Riku put down his hand. Both not speaking.
"I think we should pitch up the tent." Rena offered.
"Okay. Come on." Riku outstretched his hand.
She took it and he led her to his spot, fishing out the tent and rolling it out.
—––-/LINEBREAK\-––—
After the tents were set-up, and the firewood collected, the five settled down to make the fire; courtesy of Axel.
Roxas and Sora were in charge if cooking; Rena, the food for cooking; Riku, the basic necessities such as, firewood, and water. Axel was the one to make their bonfire.
As Rena watched the flickering flames dance around and devour the firewood, something in her mind clicked and she turned to her bag.
She retrieved two things; two bags of marshmallows, and long barbecue sticks.
Plopping down next to Riku and Axel, she held out the barbecue sticks to each of them, holding the marshmallows behind her back.
"Marshmallows, anyone?" she asked, holding out one of the bags.
"I figured that's what the sticks were for..." Roxas wondered aloud.
Sora grinned and dove for the bag, Rena giving it to him then taking the other one out from behind her.
She and Sora each opened a bag, and set them opposite each other; one for the one side of the bonfire, and one for the other.
Each snagged mallows for the themselves and stuck it on their sticks, instantly holding them out to the fire.
Rena leaned against the silver-haired teen, nibbling on her marshmallow tentatively.
Riku stared down at her, she looked so pretty against the fire.
...woah. Pretty? Since when was Rena pretty in his eyes?
Then again, he did have a little crush on her since freshman year, when Rena was in the sixth grade.
Riku decided to risk it and slung his arm around Rena's shoulders.
She considered this as a normal friend thing and moved on.
—––-/LINEBREAK\-––—
After finishing the two bags, the five decided to hit the hay.
"Goodnight, everyone." Sora murmured, yawning.
"Night." they answered.
Rena was now fully leaning on Riku.
Soon, Roxas and Axel had bid a goodnight to them, and went into their tent.
"Rena?" he called, shaking her shoulder lightly.
"Mm?" she slurred, yawning and sitting up.
"You know if you were sleepy you should've told me." he chided, smiling at the sleepy girl.
"I know. I just didn't want you to be left alone." she smiled softly, grabbing her sleeping bag from beside her backpack.
"Glad to know you cared about me." he mumbled, smiling back; at the same time fighting back a blush.
Once they were comfy enough, they bid each other good night before falling asleep.
