Chapter 3 edited!


With Cloud


I sighed and looked at Leon, he was reading a book, again, and he likes to read a lot of his time usually when we're not doing anything 'fun'. But he has been doing it a lot more lately, I'm starting to feel left out…I'm not saying that I don't act anti-social at times but I have my reasons and the funny thing is, Sora seems to do the same thing at school.

When Roxas told me that Sora was acting distant I was worried but unlike Roxas and Riku I knew the reason why our little brunette was acting in such a way. Since the day Riku broke up with him, Sora hasn't been so…Sora-like? In a sense that, although at home he's all bouncy or when he goes out at night he's your typical vampire or at least as typical as Sora can be.

But when Reno told me that Sora's been acting funny, like skipping one or two classes mostly spending time on the roof of the school, where Demyx would find and try to bring him back. Sora hardly spends time with Riku, Roxas or even Kairi at school anymore.

It wasn't that long ago on Destiny Islands that the four of them, Roxas, Sora, Riku, Kairi, Naimine promised to be best friends forever, sharing the papou fruit. And then…all this had to happen with Riku and Sora cut himself off from the three, it was slow and no one seemed to notice except for me. Not to mention the fact that Sora also the Keyblade master, Roxas was too but he gave it up and handed it over to Sora, who uses two keyblades now, the Kingdom Keyblade and Oblivion.

When I tried to ask him what was wrong, he merely said nothing and flashed that carefree smile at me, but I could tell he was faking it after all I had done the same thing (except I didn't smile at people I glared) when Aeries broke up with me.

Sora noticed, Leon, Roxas hell even the Sinclair twins, Reno and Axel realized there was something wrong. But I pushed them all away, the only ones who kept bugging me and wouldn't give me space was Reno and Sora…so the least I can do is help Sora out.

Standing up I sighed and made my way back to Sora's room, I decided that it would be best to knock before I came inside.

"Sora? …Are you ready yet? I'm going to give you a ride to school." I said through the door.

I heard a suppressed sob through the door and had to resist the urge to ask him what had happened. Yes, I can be an overprotective brother, not to mention that Roxas, Sora and I, are only two years apart. But when you have a little brother like Sora, who's in charge of saving worlds from utter darkness when called for, one can't help but be like that sometimes. And besides if I give Sora a ride to school I'll be able to see…

"I'll be out in just a second, Cloud!" responded Sora after a short pause.

I smiled, "Alright, don't take too long you're almost as bad as Kairi in the bathroom!" I said laughing slightly.

"Cloud…" he muttered with a dangerous tone, I couldn't help but chuckle, "Alright I'll be downstairs so hurry up!"

And with that I turned away and made my way to my room to grab my keys, as I did so I dropped my wallet on the floor causing it to open. Rolling my eyes I bent down to get it, when I turned it over to close it again, my eyes wondered onto the picture I had placed inside it. Sighing I couldn't help but smile contently, although I doubt Leon would be smiling if he saw it.

Taken only a few days ago, it was a picture of me, I was in an Arcade. But what made me really smile was who was right next to me. His long flaming red hair in a low ponytail, red tattoos under each eyes, and those brilliant green eyes. Our foreheads were touching as we looked towards the camera, and his arms were wrapped around my waist and his perfect devious smirk was painted on his lips.

The real reason why I really wanted to give Sora a left to school was to see Reno Sinclair Axel's older twin brother. Sora knows and so does Axel I want to stay with Reno…which would mean I'd have to leave my vampire lover for my human lover I'm happy with that because I'm in love with Reno.

Like I said Leon wouldn't be happy to see this picture.


Sora's POV


I sighed after Cloud left, wiping away the tears that had fallen again from my cheeks, Cloud probably heard me sobbing…you'd be sobbing too if you smash your foot into the door of the bathroom! It hurts like a bitch and no I'm not kidding!

"Stupid door…" I mumbled looking in to my mirror, you know those fairy tales that vampires have no reflections are funny. I mean it's true that some vampires don't have reflections but that's because they aren't of noble blood, like my family.

I turned my head and wondered if I should do the laundry later today, for I've seemed to run out of my normal clothing or at least the clothes I usually wear to school. I had to pick out a black loose sleeveless shirt with a hoodie, black shorts that go a little past my knees with chains on each side, and black boots that I think belonged to Cloud at one time…then I stole them…

And black finger-less gloves, and of course my crown necklace and a thick leather collar that Cloud gave to me and but I never got around to wearing it since I lost it in my room but hey I found it!

I grabbed my messenger bag and headed out of my room and down the stairs, I don't want to keep Cloud waiting and besides I love riding on his motorcycle! I mean have you seen it!? I swear if he dies or something he better put that in his will I get the bike!

"Morning Leon!" I said as I walked passed him, I think he mumbled a good morning but I couldn't tell since his nose was inside a book like always. I wonder how my brother deals with it, they use to always have their mouths on each other but now a days they've sort of grown.

"Cloud!" I cried seeing my older brother by his bike with a smile on his face, dressed in his usual clothing. Mostly black, let's just say he looks very 'cheerful'.

"Sora…" he mumbled giving me a smile, "Nice outfit I see you finally decided to try on the necklace I got you." he added with a smirk as he mounted the bike.

I gave a dramatic sigh and rolled my eyes, " You're such a drama queen Cloud"

"Really? Then since I'm such a drama queen I should just leave you here to walk"

"Ah…on second thought I take that back!" I answered hopping onto the bike behind him before he could drive away without me. He chuckled and started the engine, "Real smooth Sora, real smooth…"

"Yeah whatever…" I mumbled as we drove off making sure I held on tightly, since where we live is on the outskirts of town, there's plenty of time and room for Cloud to drive a fast as he pleases. And trust me you don't want to be bugging him while his driving let's just say if I wasn't a vampire I would have died when I had to runaway from him on his bike.

I wrapped my arms tightly around his waist and rested my head on his back, the wind was nice against my bare shoulders. As it seemed to caress my hair the same with Cloud's, I'll end up falling asleep in no time, if I stayed on long enough.

But every time I closed or tried to close my eyes, that dream replied in my mind, the scary thing is it didn't bother me do I even want to know what that mean?

We took a sharp turn causing my train of thoughts to be forgotten, my blue eyes watched my surrounds become blurs like paint being splashed onto a canvas. I couldn't help but smile, over these last few days I've grown closer to Cloud then with Roxas, even though we're twins I guess I cut myself off from him a lot.

Even with Riku and Kairi, I haven't spoken to her in a while, even though she lives with us, she sometimes feels uncomfortable around me, since I was the one who blooded her. I talk a lot more with Naimine I might be able to make her come to school with me instead of her staying in the house.

'We shared the papou fruit so we could be together forever the four of us but why does it feel like there's a huge wall in front of me?'

I was so caught up in my thoughts that I didn't realize that we had come to a stop or that I had let go of Cloud's waist. Until that is…

"Ah, Sora we're he-"

Before he could finish a red blur appeared behind him and jumped from wrapping his arms around my brother. Mind you the guy jumped and caused Cloud to lose his footing and well…fall down…

"Emo-kun!" cried the redhead and I couldn't help but start to laugh at my brother's expression, which was caught between surprise, annoyance and just happiness.

"Reno…" muttered Cloud as he stood up with Reno still wrapped around him.

The redhead looked at my brother innocently ( it's hard to actually believe he's younger then Cloud!), "What? I did nothing wrong what so ever, yo."

Cloud rolled his baby blue eyes at him, but smiled none the less, he moved close to Reno and placed a small kiss on his lips, which Reno returned although he seemed to have deepened it. I shuddered, I mean I love my brother and all but I don't need him to be making out in front of me!

"Ew…get a room you two!" I uttered hopping off Cloud's bike placing my hand on my hips, "Not everyone wants to see you two suck your faces off…"

"Yeah, I couldn't agree more Sor-Sor!" came yet another voice that I know all too well. Turning around indeed there he was, Axel, Reno's younger twin brother, in all his fucking glory.

I pouted momentarily forgetting of Cloud and Reno, I crossed me arms across my chest, "Don't call me Sor-Sor, the name's Sora, got it memorized?" I said giving him a smirk as I used his favorite catch phrase.

He rolled his bright green colored eyes at me and gave me a grin, "Real cute, and just for that I'm going to call you Sor-Sor for the rest of the day!"

I pouted at him, it almost felt normal now, to be greeted in such a way. I've only recently started to talk to Axel, Zexion and Marluxia and the other's they have a little group called Organization XII; since I haven't been hanging out with Riku and the other's; and besides the fact that Demyx insisted.

Until Demyx introduced us I didn't know that Axel and Reno were twins since I never really saw them much (I'm always on the rooftop).

The Sinclair twins, the oldest, Reno with vibrate red hair and vivid green eyes with red tattoos close to each eye, on the cheek slightly. Loud, stubborn, cocky, head strong , has a strange since of humor, loves to gamble, smokes like a chimney , loves to drink, and curses more then Riku and Roxas put together. But he's actually a really nice guy once you get to know him, he has been dating Cloud for a while now and me and Axel are the only ones who know.

And then there's Axel, it's a little hard to believe that Axel's the youngest but then again they tend to act alike sometimes. With equally flaming red hair, although it's not a long it's spiked out, with vibrate green eyes and little tear drop tattoos under each eyes almost an exact image of Reno almost.

Although Axel's a little bit toned down then Reno, they both get into fights at school a lot, and he's very protective of Reno. Which is kinda cute…ah I mean…NICE! Not cute nice! Ah … either way he's best friends with my twin brother Roxas, or at least I think they still are. A few weeks ago I found out that he like Roxas more then just a friend, but it seems that my twin rejected him since Roxas and Riku are still together.

I sort of feel for the guy, since I'm in a similar position as him, except he's never slept with Roxas and well…I lost my virginity to Riku only Cloud knows that… I don't want to tell Roxas or Kairi about it…and I still don't.

"Sor-Sor!" Cried Axel getting me into to a headlock catching me off guard, "If you think too hard your little brain will explode, and then I'll have to clean the mess up, got it memorized?"

I squirmed but, I hate to admit, it's kinda nice, "Ow! Axel you're choking me!"

"…No I'm not…otherwise you wouldn't be able to speak that one little sentence so perfectly…" he muttered, ruffling my hair.

"You're such a smart-ass!" I said trying to get him to let go.

"Yeah I know and you love it!" he retorted nuzzling his cheek into my hair. I don't know if he was just playing with me or what, but I smiled for a moment before looking quickly towards Cloud or even Reno for help. But those jerks were just standing there laughing! Laughing I tell you! If I wasn't held up at the moment I would be chasing Cloud around with my Keyblade!

"Axel!" I whined still trying to escape his grasp without drawing attention to myself though it seemed pointless, so much for being on time for my next class…


with Cloud and Reno


Cloud watched Axel and Sora talk to each other, it surprised the blonde to see his little brother so calm around Axel. But then again Sora's a likeable person, but Cloud had noted how tense Sora would get if Roxas, Riku or even when Kairi would hug him.

And yet there was Sora, with Axel no less, acting like they've been friends for years, Cloud couldn't help but notice how relaxed Sora seemed around the other redhead. Even as the little brunette tried to get away Cloud could see the relaxed smile and that happy look in Sora's ocean blue eyes.

"Hey, you're going to think yourself into depression, yo…" came Reno's voice as he nuzzled his cheek against Cloud's.

The blonde rolled his eyes looking away from his brother and Axel, whom was being chased around by a random stick Sora had found.

"Reno, I don't think myself into depression, that's not possible…" he retort creasing his loving redhead's cheek.

Reno pulled away and smirks, flicking Cloud's nose playfully, "Hate to break to you, Love, but…you do."

Cloud pulled off a Sora pout before he placed a kiss on Reno's lips, "Shut up…"

"Make me" answered the redhead playfully.

Cloud smirked, he loved to tease Reno, make him wait for the good stuff, "I would but I've got to keep an eye on Sora, I don't want to held responsible for your brother's murder."

Reno looked at him questioningly before he laughed, "Ok, but I'm not going to held responsible for when Axel gets into Sora pants!" and with the he hid behind the Fenrir.

Before Cloud could say anything he heard a small yelp, which was followed by laughter, the blonde looked towards the noise and couldn't help but smile in return. Reno, now sensing there was no danger peered out and stood beside Cloud resting his head on his shoulder and like his blonde, he smiled.

Sora had been chasing Axel with a stick, it was funny till he accidentally tripped over a rock and ended up landing on top of Axel. The redhead was caught by surprise but to make sure that the little brunette didn't hurt himself even further he wrapped his arms tightly around his thin waist.

Sora couldn't help but smile at this action, "Hey, you ok Sor-Sor?" asked Axel which resulted in Sora laugh.

"Yeah." he responded looking away from Axel and to the ground making his bangs cover his face in a gloomy manner.

Axel sense the sudden change and didn't like it, he liked seeing the smaller boy happy and bouncy sort of like Demyx bouncy just smarter. Smirking in a devious way, identical to Reno's smirk, he loosened his grip on Sora.

"Oh, Sor-Sor…"

"Yeah?" asked Sora, at Axel, he saw the mischievous smirk on Axel's lips and before he could get away he felt the other's hands creased his sides…tickling him!

"AHAHA! A-A-axel! St-op!" he managed to breathe out as he rolled onto the ground with the redhead still tickling his sides. The redhead laughed at the brunette grinning, red hair bouncing as he moved, he pinned the other down as he tickled him.

"You gotta say please Sor-Sor!"

"N-ev-er!"

"Surrender!"

"No!"

Laughter filled them, each grinning brightly, Sora even forgot his small little heartache about Riku and Roxas. He'd never voiced it out but around Axel or Demyx, even with Reno or Cloud he'd feel like his old self again, like in the old days.

Cloud turned his eyes away from the scene and turned to look at Reno, whom had also turned to look at the blonde, vivid green eyes were bright with thought.

"Y'know blondie, Axel's been down a lot, since Roxas turned him down but seeing him with Sora here he seems happier then I've seen him in a while, yo"

Cloud couldn't help but nod his head in agreement, "Yeah Sora told me about it he seemed worried about Axel but he seems really happy."

As he uttered this a sudden thought struck his mind and he looked back at Axel and Sora, whom had finished their tickle fight and instead were sitting and talking. And looked back at Reno, Cloud licked his lips wondering if Reno would agree to it.

"Reno-"

"Hey Cloud, we should hook them up, yo!" he said before Cloud could utter another word.

Cloud stared at Reno surprised, mostly because he had been thinking the same thing, he knew the youngest Strife twin had a thing for humans, hence Kairi. But Reno took the look as disapproval, "Ne, you don't like my idea? Come on I've been thinking hard on it, yo!"

Cloud chuckled at Reno, "You? Thinking hard? Well that's a first…."

"Cloud…"

"Anyway…actually Reno…I was thinking the same thing…about hooking Sora up with Axel…"

Reno smirked wrapping before placing his arm on Cloud's shoulder, "Well then, What's the plan, yo?"

Cloud returned Reno's smirk and looked towards Axel and Sora before placing a loving kiss on the redhead's lips, "We'll see, lets see how far it gets before they need our help."

Reno purred and wrapped his arms around Cloud's neck, "I like the sound of it…now shut up so I can kiss you…"

And with that he placed a possessive kiss on Cloud lips, tilting his head to the side, tongues slipping in and out tangling against one another.

Mean while with Axel and Sora, whom were sitting not far away, Sora sneezed twice, like a mouse. Axel couldn't help but laughing at Sora's small sneeze, "What was that? Are you sick?"

"No…I felt a chill run down my spine…a murderous intent?" mused Sora shrugging looking towards Axel who shrugged too.

"Eh…who knows anyway where's Reno and…" before Axel could finish his sentence he turned to see Cloud and Reno passionately making out on Cloud's motorcycle.

"Ah! My beautiful eyes!" cried Axel covering his eyes in a dramatic way.

"No! My future bike, tainted!" uttered Sora pretending to reach out for it.

"Huh?" came both Reno's and Cloud's response.

"GET A ROOM!" cried their younger siblings, though smirks could be seen on Sora and Axel's lips. They group stared at each other before the bust out laughing, well…Cloud chuckled…but then as if died down Sora looked at Cloud seriously, "I was serious about the Fenrir…"
