Warning: Nothing in this chapter except making out, but eventually AkuRoku, SoRiku, Demyx, Cleon, and mentions of CloudSeph.
A/N: So here's Chapter 2!! Sorry it took a bit longer than two weeks to get it up... I really don't have any excuse other than I'm lazy XD Reviews are really the thing that guilted me in to getting this out!! But it's a bit longer than the first chapter so I hope that makes up for it a bit!! Um you learn a bit about Roxas and Sora's family so I hope it's not too boring!! Enjoy!!
"Sora, where are we going?" Roxas asked. They were heading down the hallway that held only the restrooms, as far as he knew. He was confused, what could be down there that Sora would want to show him?
Sora smiled, seeing his brother's confusion. "Almost there," he said. At the end of the hallway stood a tall man with blonde hair and a pair of brown goggles on his head. Roxas thought he looked remarkably like a bouncer.
"No guests beyond this point," the man said in a gruff voice as they approached. Sora smiled and handed him a small card. The man examined it for a moment before looking up and handing it back. "Right on through, Mr. Strife."
Sora smiled again, mischievously, and they walked through the door. "You have a VIP pass?" Roxas asked, very much surprised. The brunette mumbled something, turning his head away from his twin. Roxas raised his eyebrows, "Sorry, Sora, didn't quite catch that."
"I said I got it from... Riku," Sora answered, blushing furiously.
Roxas' mouth dropped open in surprise. "Riku. As in the drummer Riku?" Sora nodded. "But how...?"
Sora took a deep breath and looked into his brother's eyes. "Well, actually, Riku and I have been dating for a while now."
Roxas stared. "Wha...?"
"Well, you remember that concert I went to alone since you were sick?" Roxas nodded. He had been very upset to miss a concert just because he had the flu. "They were there to see a friend's band. I met Riku at the bar and we kinda hit it off so he invited me to dinner with them. Then I went to his apartment to, uh, hang out." Sora coughed and turned his head, his cheeks bright red.
Roxas rolled his eyes, laughing slightly. "So you spent the night with him and that's why you didn't come home until the next day?" Sora nodded. He had gotten into serious trouble with their parents for being out so long without calling. "And you've been going out ever since?"
Sora nodded, smiling. "Yea and I couldn't be happier! Just... don't tell mom and dad yet?" Roxas cocked his head. "I just don't think they're ready to hear that I have a boyfriend. Remember what happened with Cloud?"
Roxas nodded, he understood completely. He had known he was gay since before Sora came out but had decided to keep it a secret for a while because he knew it would be a huge shock.
He had been planning on telling his parents before Cloud, Sora and his older brother, came out two months before. And if that didn't cause enough of a stir, he announced that he had a boyfriend, Sephiroth. A week later Sora had finally come out.
After the initial shock, their mother, Aerith, had been very supportive. In fact, she seemed thrilled by the whole situation most of the time and coddled her sons constantly.
Their father, Luxord, however, was still wary of it. He refused to admit that his sons were gay and had begun several arguments where he claimed that they were simply "sexually confused." Cloud wouldn't speak to him for several days after each encounter and was still somewhat stiff around him even when they weren't arguing.
When Cloud broke up with his abusive boyfriend a month later, Luxord had been overjoyed and again tried to tell him he was "sexually confused." Cloud then proceeded to move into his own apartment so he could lick his wounds without their father's nagging.
All this had led to an increase in Luxord's drinking and gambling, which made him even more apt to start arguments over his sons' sexuality, especially when he came home drunk. It was a vicious cycle.
Roxas suddenly realized they had stopped at a door almost at the end of the hallway. As Sora opened the door, Roxas thought he could hear the crowd cheering the end of the last song.
They stepped into a large cream colored room. Directly across from the door they had entered was a black couch with a coffee table settled in front of it. To the right of the couch were two black easy chairs and to the left of the couch was a black loveseat.
In the corner across from the loveseat was a round table with four comfy looking chairs. A red-headed girl sat in the chair directly in the corner, head bowed over a clipboard, muttering softly.
"Hey Kairi!" Sora sang out, heading to the easy chairs. She waved without looking up. Sora sat in the chair closest to the door and motioned for Roxas to take the other.
A minute later Kairi moved a hand to her ear and Roxas noticed she had been speaking into a headpiece. "Hey Sora. Is that your brother? You two look a lot alike," she said, writing something on her clipboard.
"Oh yea!" Sora exclaimed, smiling brightly. "This is my brother, Roxas. Roxas, Kairi. She's the band's manager."
Roxas waved weakly, his eyes wide, "Um, hi." She waved at him but continued writing.
Roxas turned to look at his twin, a question in his eyes. Sora looked away sheepishly. "Well, um," he muttered, scratching his head. "I kinda, well, talked about you a bit when I, uh, visited."
"Is that what you call a bit?" a voice asked. "To me, that's 'wouldn't shut up!'" The twins turned to see the door open and a silver-haired boy standing in the doorway.
"Riku!" Sora shouted, launching himself toward the doorway. The older youth caught him and carried him to the loveseat where they proceeded to block out all else in favor of each other's mouths.
Behind Riku came a blonde boy holding hands with a blue-haired boy. The blonde's hair was funny, like a mohawk and a mullet all rolled into one, and he was talking animatedly while the other looked bored.
They headed for the couch where the slate-haired boy immediately pulled out a book. The blonde pouted and tried to distract the other boy; he was ignored but didn't seem discouraged.
After the odd couple came a blonde girl in a short white dress. She headed to the table where Kairi was sitting. The red-head greeted her with a smile and a hug and they began talking, ignoring the rest of the room.
The last person to enter the room was the tall read-head that Roxas had become so infatuated with. He looked around and sat in the only empty seat aside from the ones near the two chatting girls, the easy chair next to Roxas.
They sat quietly, Roxas trying to not be caught looking at Axel and the red-head looking bored. After a few minutes of trying to ignore the loud, wet noises coming from across the room, he turned to look at Roxas. "So, who are you?"
"Oh, I'm-" Roxas started to explain, blushing a bit.
Sora disengaged himself from Riku with a pop. "Oh, yea! Sorry I forgot to introduce him," he exclaimed. "This is my brother, Roxas. Roxas, this is Axel, Demyx, Zexion, Riku, and Namine. You've already met Kairi." With each name, he pointed at a member of the band. Roxas smiled shyly at each one.
"Ooo so you're Roxas?" the blonde Demyx asked, bouncing up and down. He had apparently given up on Zexion and moved to the other end of the couch so he could more easily converse with Roxas.
"Erm, yea. Hi," he answered warily. This guy's almost as spastic as Sora! he thought.
"So are you really as moody as Sora says? Ooo has he talked about us? Has he talked about me?" Demyx asked, leaning over the arm of the couch to fire questions straight into Roxas' face. "Do you have a girlfriend? Do you have a boyfriend? Wha-"
"Demyx," Kairi said from across the room. "Give the boy a break." It was just as well that she had interrupted, Roxas' face had a gone a very interesting shade of red at the last question.
"And Zexion, control your boyfriend." Zexion shrugged and continued reading his book but Demyx looked slightly abashed. "Anyway, Cid says the club's just about cleared out so are all of you ready for dinner?"
"Sor?" Roxas asked, looking at his brother.
Sora had detached himself from his boyfriend at the mention of dinner and was now trying to pull the silver-haired boy toward the door. He turned to his twin when he heard his name and gave his brother a wicked grin. "Didn't I tell you we're going to dinner with the band?"
A/N: Sorry if anyone is offended by my homophobic Luxord... I just needed a dad for them and he seemed to fit well enough!! XD And yes I do think Cid looks like a bouncer!! haha Haven't started chapter three yet so it'll be a while again... sorry!! Reviews are cuddled!! :D
