Chapter Two.
So the time was coming near and the Avery family would be coming around very soon. The boys were in their room getting all spiffed up, like their mother had asked them.
Ven was actually a bit excited about seeing to the Avery twins again, well more like just Vanitas. Roxas on the other hand was having a grumble he didn't see the point really.
"What's the point we don't even know them? Their just some random people from down the street" Roxas grumbled to his brother, while he fixed his hair.
"Rox it isn't such a bad idea, they wont be random people any more because at lest well know them. Mum did the right and nice thing by inviting them over. Plus you get to Sora again." Ven said grinning at his brother, while he just earned a glare from Roxas reflection.
"Yeah well I don't care, and your only in a good mood because you get to see Vanitas again" Roxas said in a girly voice, mocking him. Ven decided to go with the childish option and just suck his tongue out. Roxas laughed shaking his head.
The doorbell rang. Blue eyes met blue eyes; one set was full of excitement and anticipation while the others were bored and uninterested. "Boys! Come meet our guests!" Their mother called from the bottom of the stairs.
The twin teen boys walked down the stairs; well its not technically walking Roxas was slower than normal, how about try snail pace while mumbling something intelligible. While Ven speed down at the speed of lighting all you could see was a blur, and happened to yell "YAY!" when he reached the bottom. Their mother shook her head, her long brown hair swishing and sticking to her cloths. What could you do when you had mirror twins?
She opened the door to reveal the lovely family all dress in fancy spiffy cloths, like theirs. Their father was well built with gold eyes, matching Vanitas', while the mother was petite with sky blue eyes that matched Sora's eyes. The boys both noticed that they were both were very attractive, noticing where their son's got their looks from.
Roxas had finally descended the stairs as their mother introduced her self and ushered all of them into the living room. She gave Roxas a stern look "I don't care, if you don't want them here, and I don't care if you like one of the boys, please make an effort and behave." She said in a hushed voice, as she entered the kitchen to gather some snacks.
Roxas muttered to himself about hating how well she knew him or something like that, as he dawdled into the living room where everyone was sitting. He scanned the room for a space seat. Nothing, he grumbled some more and sat on the uncomfortable floor, with no cushion.
While on the other hand his twin brother was squished between Vanitas and Sora, which made Roxas slightly jealous, sitting in a comfy chair sitting next to the boy he though was cute.
The room was silent, making everyone feel awkward. You could say that the silence was deafening. Maria returned with snacks everyone sighed with relief as she placed them on the coffee table. She looked around for a chair but didn't see any and saw Roxas on the floor mumbling to himself.
"Would you like my seat?" Sora piped up, Roxas noticed his bright blues eyes were twinkling as his mother said thank you. A smile twitched at the edge of Roxas' lips, daring to show his perfect teeth. Sora sat next Roxas. Roxas bit the inside of his lip until it hurt to stop himself from saying something rude, like 'why are you sitting next to me?' He was also trying to hide the smile that threatened to show.
"Hi." Sora whispered to Roxas, while looking at the floor, as the adults started a conversation about where they were from what had made them come to Destiny Island. Roxas looked at him with a tilt of his head, because he wasn't actually sure he hear right.
"Umm hi?" Roxas said now playing with his shoe, as he couldn't think of anything else to say.
"So..." Sora said trying to make conversation.
Being squished had its advantages Ventus thought, being pushed up against one of the cutest guys he'd ever seen did make him feel very accomplished. Actually pushed up, was probably the wrong phrasing now that Ventus thought about it, he felt his face getting hotter as he thought about the possibilities… Ven shook his head hopefully to get the images to fall out of his head; there was defiantly no need for fantasizing for right at this moment. He could do that later.
Ventus over heard the adults talking about that the boys would be going to the same school, Destiny High for the Gifted, not many students got an invite to go to that school let alone get accepted.
"So you're going to the same school as me hey? You must be pretty good not many people get in." Ventus rambled on looking at Vanitas, Vanitas' eyes staring straight in his, it was making Ven giddy as his head swamp. Before he could answer.
Brzzz
The buzzer went off in the kitchen, just as all the four boys stomach growled. They all looked at each other and laughed. Even the adults had a giggle. Marina excused her self to serve dinner.
As they all sat down to eat, pure silence if you dropped a pin you would hear it land and ring through out the house. The boys had their eyes down focusing on there lasagna in front of them. Its was delicious though Roxas was grumbling to himself, that it was to hot for him to eat.
"So boys, I hear you go to the same school that Sora and Vanitas are enrolled in?" Ven and Roxas looked up at Mrs Avery surprised she addressed them.
"Yes we go there, we seem to like it." Ven said answering for the both of them.
"That's good. What are majors to attended such a high ranking school?" She asks general interested in what they had to say, which was a first no one really cared. Roxas looked bored with question and let Ven answer it knowing he had it all under control.
"Well I'm an artist and Roxas is a musician." Ven answered truthfully, at lest it wasn't quiet anymore.
"Wow that's lovely, so are Sora and Van. What instrument do you play Roxas?" She addressed Roxas first; he was actually interested in the conversation now that she addressed him directly.
Roxas eyes sparkled as he thought of his guitar in his room. "Well I play guitar and can dabble at a bit of singing. I'm not a very good singer but I'm getting better" He smiled at her.
"I bet your just being modest, I bet you're a wonderful singer." She said politely making Roxas blush slightly. "So Ven you said you were and artist? What type?" She smiled at him. Ven liked her she was warm and kind.
"Well I like drawing and painting, but I prefer photography. It's not so messy" He laughed at himself remembering the time her tried a to see what charcoal and ink would look like together. It turned out quiet well, just for the fact that it was on the paper like he had planned it to be. It took him a week the get the ink out of his skin.
Rikku laughed "Yeah much cleaner, aint that right Ven?" she said nudging him in the side.
"That's cool, I like creating digital images on Photoshop" Vanitas spoke for the first time all night, ignoring Rikku's comment, his voice was deep and sexy. Ventus thought his head was spinning before, now he was head over heels for him. The poor kid, Roxas thought as he watching his brother's eyes sparkle.
The rest of the meal was filled with noises of knifes and forks scratching the plates, as they talk of school, life, interests. By the time the clock reached nine o'clock, the Avery's decided to leave. They said their goodbyes and thanks for the meal and welcoming them to the neighbour hood.
Tomorrow would be the first day Sora and Vanitas would be attending Destiny High for the Gifted. Something they would be looking forward to, well Ven more than Roxas.
Roxas thought of the twins and hoped that they wouldn't be in all of his class, a couple would be okay, but all of them that was more than enough he could handle, he'd just spent the entire evening with them, and he was barely able to make it through that because he was so damn mind boggling bored. Even though he did sneak a few peeks at the proactive Sora across the table when he wasn't looking, that was enough to keep his boredom under control for the while they were there.
