You could call it a strange situation at best. Five complete strangers sitting around a little plastic table while my wildly ecstatic mother served us dinner. Well, some of us were strangers, some most definitely not…I glanced to Riku and sighed pitifully hiding under my hair. Roxas rubbed comforting circles into my back and I smiled gratefully but he didn't see, he was too busy slapping Demyx's curious hand from the chains on his pocket.

"Oh Sora, you don't know how happy I am that you finally have some friends again, I remember when this house used to be filled with kids, or at least, when our old house used to be filled with kids, but no matter…here skinny one have some more potatoes" my mom's buoyant attitude made me smile.

"I am not skinny!" Axel retorted.

Roxas snorted

"Shut up scrawny ass" Axel shot at Roxas.

Roxas merely raised an eyebrow and began to eat. Riku I was glad to see was squirming from her last comment, profusely thanking my mom as she served him an extra helping.

"Ah, well, shall we say grace?" my mother offered, finally plopping herself down.

Roxas and I shared a smirk while the rest of them awkwardly complied with the handholding.

"Thank you dear lord for bestowing upon Sora, Roxas and I such delightfully hot and most hopefully gay boys at this table tonight, who without them, Sora would be left in some ditch rotting or becoming a prostitute or something equally as bad, which I'm sure you wouldn't mind considering your such a fan for the homosexuals and all…"

Roxas and I choked on our laughter, squeezing our eyes shut from the tears at Axel and Riku's paired expressions of horror. Silence reigned, a lamp shattered somewhere down the street.

"Amen!" Demyx sang and dug into his food, Roxas and I quick to follow.

"Ahem…um, Mrs.sora's mom, you um?"

I hiccupped , food splattering the countertop, laughter binding my sides and halting my apologies.

"Gross Sora, real gross" Roxas said and speared a carrot.

"Yes Axel dear, what was your question? Oh and please call me Dolly (1)" she smiled, patting his hand.

"Your, uh, grace? Um…"

"Oh, that? Honey, it's just a joke, we don't really have a religion seeing as I work in sex shop that is marketing towards the male male crowd if you know what I mean, either way, I'm doomed to hell" she winked, Axel twitching slightly.

Riku neatly spooned food into his mouth, goddamn perfectionist.

"oh.ha." Axel said awkwardly.

Roxas, deciding to be a fraction nicer to the poor boy, reached over and patted his arm.

"She's a bit scary, but you get used to her"

"Does that mean I'll be coming here more often?" Axel suddenly grinned, twisting his hand so that it grabbed Roxas's own.

Roxas narrowed his eyes and snatched his hand back.

The rest of the dinner was silent, or at least for our half of the table, because once Demyx found out that Mom had a job opening he immediately started to badger her for an application, while Axel asked less appropriate questions that made Roxas blush and Riku stop eating. I for one did not give up the delicious mounds of food, Mom was a good cook despite our depleted resources.

"So, you sell handcuffs Dolly?"

"Oh you know it"

"Colors?"

Mom tapped her chin in thought

"Pink, black, lime green and maybe yellow…"

Axel grinned and swooped Roxas under his arm.

"You see here, Roxas I think likes blue, you have any of that in stock?"

Mom grinned

"It could be arranged, but I had no idea Roxas"

Roxas roughly pushed Axel off and got up.

"If you idiots don't mind me leaving, then I'm going to go to my homework" and then Roxas was off in a huff, Axel whining "stay" after him.

Then dinner was really quiet, but for the whining of Axel and the scrape of knives.

"Riku's here" I randomly stated, pointing my fork at him.

"Yeah, honey, he's been here for awhile" Mom told me as If I was an idiot, in the actual sense of insane asylum dunce.

"Why are you here?" I glared.

Riku raised an eyebrow.

"You invited me, idiot" Riku stated, eating indifferently.

"Damn cheek!"

"Sora…your cheek wound doesn't affect your brain, even I know that" Demyx boasted.

I narrowed my eyes at the smartass remark, pouted and promptly walked over to Riku, tugging him up and started to shove him out.

"Sora!" mom yelled, leaping up and attempting to pry my pushing hands off.

"What? What gives him the right to come into our house and eat our food huh? Who gave him the damn cake and let him eat it!" I cried, embarrassed by the angry tears that congealed.

Mom flashed an apologetic smile over at Riku and took me away, shoving me into my room and slamming the door.

"I'm so sorry about that Riku; Sora's just a little bit touchy over the new situation"

"I completely understand, no worries"

"Please, come by another time Riku, we miss you"

"Sora hates me"

"Don't say that…he'll come around, anyway, say hi to your parents for me will you?"

"Of course, goodnight Len and thanks for dinner"

I heard the door shut and the soft sigh of my mom as she pressed her forehead against the closed exit.

"Sora" she called, knowing I had left my room to eavesdrop.

"I'm sorry Mom, I just hate it so much, I feel so dumb, I didn't mean to embarrass you or anything, I just"

Her open arms were all I needed as I stumbled forward into their embrace.

"One day we'll get our house back" she whispered and I was the child again I so yearned to be.

Axel and Demyx left at about 10 after playing several games of Life with Roxas and I. Turns out they weren't so strange or bizarre, and that Axel wasn't some bad ass drug dealer nor Demyx an ecstasy freak. They were actually roughly the same age as us, Axel being 18 and Demyx 17. They went to the same school but nervously admitted that they hardly went because they were too devoted to their music. I thought it was cool, the way Demyx practically drooled over even the idea of music. He was really passionate. They were both really passionate, even Roxas lightened up to them a tad bit…a rare thing indeed.

"So, see you guys on Monday?" Demyx chirped, chin moving along with the words on my shoulder.

"You're actually coming to school…I'm honored" Roxas stated dryly.

"Only for you baby" Axel whispered, Roxas rolled his eyes and walked off to his bedroom with a wave.

"I think I'm in love" Axel mock swooned.

I laughed and pulled away from Demyx's slouch on me.

"Yeah yeah Axel, have fun with that, my brother is basically as bad a Leon or Cloud, or you know an icey thing"

He didn't respond, only grinned manically at Roxas's closed door.

"Uh-oh, he's determined" Demyx pointed out

"How do you know?"

"Look at his face, there's like evil in his eyes" Demyx rudely pointed at his face.

And it was true…if that maniacal grin didn't prove it enough. I cringed.

"I feel bad for Roxas"

"Right you should my friend, right you should…" Demyx said, and finally straightened up to go, tugging on Axel to follow.

"See ya Monday, and thanks for the food!" Demyx yelled over his shoulder, while Axel just waved.

"See ya on Monday" I whispered shutting the door.

A moment later, my mom and I squealed in excitement.

"Friends!"

"Weird friends"

"Gay friends!"

"Shut up!" Roxas yelled and Mom and I fell to the ground happily.

Finally…
