"Cloud you in there?" I asked knocking on his door.
"Uh… give me a minute." Cloud called his voice slightly strained. There was a shuffling sound from inside and then the door opened to reveal a flushed looking Cloud. Leon was sitting on his beg trying to look innocent.
"I'm not going to ask…I'm here to help with the homework type thing." I said smirking.
"Oh… I meant to call you, I finished that sorry." He said running a hand through his hair.
"Meh don't mention it, Leon did you leave the apartment unlocked?" I asked leaning to the side to see Leon.
"Umm yeah I think so." He said nodding his head before holding his arms out to Cloud. I took the hint and headed back downstairs.
"Thanks Dem, see you around." I said waving to the blonde still sitting at his computer.
I didn't wait for him to reply as I walked out the front door.
"Hey… Axel!" I looked up to see Roxas standing uncertainly outside the house next door to my brothers.
"Hey spikes what can I do for you?" I asked walking slowly across the street making sure to make my hips sway seductively. His eyes wondered down my body and widened.
"Erm… well I was just wondering… are you hungry?" he asked flicking some hair out of his eyes. I grinned and stopped in front of him.
"Hmm now that I think about it I am rather hungry, why you offering dinner?" I asked
"Um well yeah I was heading out anyway so I though hey why not invite you but… uh if you don't wanna go that's cool… I mean you don't have." I put a finger on his lips to stop him.
"You're rambling. Let me just tell my brother that I'll see him tomorrow and then we can go, okay?" I said grinning. He just nodded a light blush creeping over his skin. I turned and walked down the drive.
"Yo Reno! I'm heading out see you tomorrow!" I called from the front door.
"You're not even going to go in there?" asked Roxas frowning.
"Nah Reno is a big boy he can look after himself." I said grinning.

"Are you serious? Five schools in three years?" I asked taking a sip of my drink.
"Uh huh, since my mum died my sister and I have been moving frequently." Said Roxas frowning thoughtfully resting his head in his hand.
"Hmm let's see, I've been to Twilight Town High since I started high school. I've lived in Twilight Town my whole life." I said locking eyes with Roxas. He and I had been sitting here in Cid's diner for an hour talking to each other about our pasts.
"I've only ever had one girlfriend." Said Roxas taking a bite of his toasted cheese.
"Really? Wow I thought you would have had plenty… unless you're gay?" I asked.
"No… at least I don't think so." He said his frown deepening.
"I could help you find out if you want." I offered dropping my voice to a husky growl and winking at him. Roxas's eyes widened. I just grinned evilly at the smaller boy as my phone went off. I dug it out of my pocket and slid it open reading the text. 'Hey Axe! Are you coming home any time soon? We want to watch a movie but don't want to start with out you! ~Sora' I rolled my eyes before looking up to meet Roxas's curious gaze.
"My roommate's little brother wants me to go home and watch a movie with them, wanna join us?" I asked finishing off my drink.
"Uh… sure let me just call Naminé and let her know." He said digging in his pockets for his phone while I replied to Sora's text.
"Okay, you ready?" I asked standing up.
"Yeah." Roxas joined me at my side. We had already paid so we just walked out.
"So who is your roommate?" asked Roxas after a few seconds of silence.
"Squall Leonhart, but we call him Leon and his brother Sora sometimes stays with us when he's not staying with his boyfriend Riku." I said shoving my hands in my pockets.
"Oh yeah I know Sora, he showed me around. I'm guessing the tall silver head kid is Riku?" he asked shivering. I looked down at the blonde, I had momentarily forgotten that I don't feel the cold even half as much as most people.
"Yeah that would be him. Would you like my coat? You look really cold" I offered shrugging out of my coat and draping it over his shoulders before he could even reply.
"Won't you freeze? You're only wearing a t-shirt!" he objected shoving my coat towards me. I grinned and pushed it back towards him.
"No, I honestly don't feel the cold. I have really warm skin so the cold never penetrates. Here feel." I said gently placing my hand on his cheek. I felt the corners of my mouth twitch as a blush spread across his cheeks.
"Wow! Your skin is really warm!" he exclaimed leaning into my hand. I chuckled and wrapped my arms around his small frame.
"Don't worry, I wont try anything. Its just to keep you warm." I said comfortingly as he stiffened slightly. He relaxed and leaned against me.
"Wow you live quite far out of town." He said suddenly looking around.
"No really we've only been walking for five minutes, besides it just up here anyway." I chuckled pulling him into the foyer of the apartment block.
"Hey Axe how was your day?" asked Yuffie from behind the receptions desk.
"Hey Yuffie, it was okay. See you around." I said dragging Roxas into the elevator.
"You're quite antisocial do you know that?" he asked looking up at me.
"Really? I thought I was very social." I said releasing my hold on him.
"Axel! And…Roxas… hey!" said Roxas opening the door. Soon the ball of hyperactive energy was dragging us into the room and pushing us towards the couch.
"Sora stop shoving and sit down." Ordered Leon lazily from his spot on the cushy lazy boy. Sora stopped pushing us and bounced over to sit in his spot on Riku's lap.
"Hey you two." Said Riku wrapping his arms around his boyfriends lap.
"Hey yourself." I replied flopping down onto the couch next to Riku and Sora. Roxas walked over and timidly sat next to me.
"Leon! Manners! Offer your guest something to drink!" ordered Sora shooting his older brother a glare. Leon looked up and snorted. (He seems to do that a lot lately)
"He's not my guest he's Axel's, why doesn't he get the drink?" he grumbled sinking further into his seat. I rolled my eyes at my EXTREMELY lazy roommate.
"Roxas would you like something to drink?" I offered getting to my feet.
"Uh… no thanks." Roxas shook his head and concentrated on his interlocked fingers.
"I'll have a coke!" Cheered Sora bouncing on his boyfriends lap.
"Make that two please." Added Riku tightening his hold on Sora's waist to stop the bouncing. I stifled a chuckle at Sora's pout and headed into the kitchen to grab the drinks. By the time I returned the movie was set up and we were just about to start when there was a knock at the door. Before any of us had a chance to get up Cloud followed by Demyx and Zexion walked into the room. Cloud walked over to Leon and kissed him tenderly before dropping into his lap. Zexion and Demyx took up the remaining sofa.
"Right are we all here now?" growled Leon not in the mood for any more interruptions.
"Yup!" we all cheered making Leon smile. I stretched my arm across the back of the couch and Roxas automatically leaned into it causing me to grin. This kid was just so fucking cute!
