Roxas looked at Sora for a moment, then at Riku. Then again at Sora. He blinked.

"Congratulations guys, you make a sweet couple!" Came the booming voice which made Roxas jump. Axel came up behind Roxas and put his arm

around his shoulder. Sora beamed up at the tall red head.

"Yea, uh congrats." Roxas replied, still not believing what Sora had said. Had Sora always been gay? He thought to himself, having no recollection of his

twin ever mentioning that fact. Sora looked at Roxas.

"I know I should have told you sooner, but I though I would wait. Are you happy for me?" He asked, giving Sora the puppy dog look that could melt

anyones heart. Roxas rolled his eyes and smiled back.

"Of course I am!" He looked up at Riku, who was still standing quietly behind Sora. He seemed older then the twins. His ice blue eyes seemed to

freeze Roxas where he stood. For some reason, he didnt trust this guy. Riku broke the stare suddenly, and went to sit on a couch. Sora was acting

giddy, and went to the kitchen to get something.

"Hey anyone want anything?" He called from the kitchen.

"I'll have some water." Riku replied quietly.

"No thanks, I'm good." Roxas replied.

"You got any ice cream?" Axel yelled, again making Roxas jump. Riku laughed.

"Yep, what flavor?" Sora called back.

"Sea-salt?" Axel suggested. Thats my favorite flavor. Roxas thought.

"Ha, Roxas loves that ice cream, if we didn't have any, I think we would all be dead." Axel looked at Roxas with interest. Roxas pretended not to

notice. Roxas went and sat on a chair across from the couch, and Axel sat beside Riku. They started talking about something, but Roxas couldnt

hear. They kept looking up at him. Sora came out of the kitchen holding a glass of water, and two sea-salt ice creams, and seated himself in a chair

beside Roxas after he had handed out the items. Axel looked over at Roxas again, and giggled. Roxas growled in reply.

"Whatcha talking bout?" Asked Sora, who was happily eating his ice cream.

"Oh, nothing. You and Roxas look alot alike, thats all." Axel replied. Riku tried to stiffle a laugh, but it didnt work as well as he thought.

"And what does that have to do with anything?" Roxas asked, in a threatening tone.

"Nothing. I.." Axel was cut off, because the front door burst open. Everyone jumped. Roxas's and Sora's older brother Cloud was being pushed up

against a wall. Riku was so shocked that he spit his water out in a spray. Roxas looked for a moment and recognized the "pusher" as Leon, a long

time friend of the families. Everyone in the living room was quiet.

Leon ran his hand though Clouds blonde hair, and their lips met again, and again occasionally pulling back from one another to breathe. With his

other hand, Leon held Clouds arm up on the wall, and his body pressed against Cloud's as though to squish him. His tongue parted Cloud's lips,

and found its way into his mouth. All of a sudden Leon opened his eyes, and turned them, without moving his head, to the living room. Everyone's

mouth's were dropped open. Axel gave him the thumbs up.

"Let's go to your room." suggested Leon between breaths. Cloud didn't have to respond, and they made their way through the house, Leon made

sure Cloud didn't open his eyes. When the group in the living room heard the door close, it seemd like they all took a breath at once. There was an

awkward silence, and Axel started to giggle.

"Does that happen often?" He asked, still giggiling.

"Yea, all the time!" Sora responded. Roxas sat there silently, and he watched the way Sora was watching Riku. He also saw the way Riku watched

Sora, and he didn't like it. There was something he didn't trust about him. Axel stood suddenly.

"Wellllll.. this was fun, i'll see you people later, but I must be going now." He started walking to the door. Roxas got up, to see him out, and he

didn't know how to thank the Redhead for driving him home. Axel opend the door and started walking down the steps.

"Hey, thanks for riding me home." Roxas said quietly.

"Excuse me? Riding you home?" Axel asked with interest, turning his head to peek back at Roxas over his shoulder.

"Uh.. no wait!! I meant driving me home, thanks for driving me home!" Roxas's face turned many different shades of red and purple. Axel chuckled.

"No problem." He walked down the stairs. Quietly, he said, "I'd like to ride you any day." He didn't stop. He walked to his motorcycle, and started it.

He put on his helmet, and waved. Then pulled out of the driveway, and rode down the street. Roxas watched him until he was out of view. Did Axel

really say that? Roxas wondered. He went back inside. Sora and Riku were talking. Roxas sat in his chair, and saw on the table that there was a

little piece of paper, with Axels name, and a phone number. There was a commotion from the back room, and Cloud's door burst open. Cloud

stormed down the hall into the living room. He stood there for a moment, staring at everyone sitting quietly in the living room. He wasn't wearing a

shirt, and his hair was messier the usual.

"How long have you all been sitting there?" He asked casually, pretending not to be mad.

"Since you and Leeeoonn got home." Roxas said in a mocking tone. He and Cloud were always fighting. Cloud glared at him, then turned on his

heels and marched back to his room, and slammed the door behind him. They heard the door open again, and close lightly. Leon came into the

living room and took a seat next to Roxas.

"Sooo..." Roxas said, trailing off as Leon looked at him and started smiling.

"I told him you were all here, and well, we all know how he likes to have control of situations." He chuckled.

"I said GET OUT." They all heard from the back of the house. Leon chuckled again.

"Ok Pumpkin!" He called back. The house went dead silent. The door burst open.

"WHAT DID YOU JUST CALL ME." Cloud yelled, then started towards the living room.

"Uh oh, better go." Leon got up, and quickly walked to the front door and left, but not before blowing a kiss back to Cloud. When the door closed,

Cloud stopped, and again went back to his layer. Roxas leaned forward and picked up the piece of paper that Axel had left. He stood and said bye

to Riku, and went to his room, which was in the basement. It was still early, but when he lay on his bed, tiredness swept over him, and he fell

asleep.
