Song: Give it 2 Me (Oakenfold Mix) by Madonna
And briefly: Step Up 2 the Streets by Flo Rida feat T. Pain and Party People by Nelly and Fergie
The beat was strong as the three moved their hips to it in unison, the blonde in the middle of the other two to the endless hit, hit, hit, hit of the beat.
The beat seemed to go on forever which angered some of the dancers, causing them to leave. This was not a club that usually played so much techno, so the dancers waiting for the rap and R&B, left the floor for drinks. This was the third or so techno song in a row, the never ending beat causing the true dancers to move together to the beat.
The hit became stronger with a smooth beat in the back and the two ballroom dancers led the other redhead into the under beat of the music instead of the obvious and tiring hit, hit, hit, hit.
The under beat was what led the three into a sway from side to side, their hips all connected with Roxas in the middle. The blonde had his head thrown back, resting against Reno's shoulder as pure bliss, both from the friction and music, ran through his body burning away at him like wildfire.
The music seemed to go on forever for the three.
It all increased quickly with a new under beat and Roxas went down between the two, his hips moving in such a way that the women dancing amongst them were envious of, his shoulders going as well until he was crouching between the two males. The beat got stronger and Roxas slowly started rising, taking his sweet time with the movement, side to side sway of his hips, getting up and continuing his sway between the two, until the sudden strong beat ended.
The soft hit, hit, from the beginning came with yet another new under beat, this one increasing and revealing the song that this was a remix of. The strong hits of the beat faded away to allow the under beat to lead the dancers together.
A familiar, famous, voice sounded out through the speakers, flooding the room with Madonna's voice and the newest remix version of the music.
The dancers that had been pulling away from the dance floor turned to look as the flashing lights died out to one smooth light running along the crowd, illuminating a select few dancers for only a few moments.
When the strong voice sounded Roxas raised his hands in the air, his eyes still closed and wound so deep within the music that it never seemed to register to him he was now dancing with two people.
His hands rose up and his upper body leaned back into Reno's waiting embrace. The older redhead moved his hands across the fishnet shirt covering his partner and one hand fell down to his smooth stomach, running gently atop before it slid to the blonde's hip and settled atop Axel's own.
The chorus of the song started and Roxas' breathing followed the beat of the music, his chest rising and falling quickly and his hips swaying once more the resuming beat. Still between the two redheads, he allowed for his lips to move, forming the words of the lyrics. They never seemed to register to him or his intoxicated mind. Nothing seemed like it was getting through to the blonde except the beat moving him between two lean bodies.
"…give it to me…"
Reno ran his other hand up that beating chest and up one of the raised arms, bending it at the elbow and letting the small fingers tangle in his red locks. His hand continued to run up the underarm, Roxas' head resting back on the redhead's shoulder while Reno's lips were ghosting over the juncture of his shoulder and neck.
Axel moved in closer, his one leg settled comfortably between Roxas' spread pair, his foot resting flat against Reno's, the older male's knee forward – also between Roxas' legs, and bend so his knee was brushing against Axel's thigh. The younger redhead couldn't keep his hands to himself and while one was resting on Roxas' hip with Reno's own atop it, the other was reaching out gently, brushing up the fishnet shirt, his nails hooking in a few of the stray strands of fabric, before they continued on. His fingers ghosted up, his head bent down, looking right down the blonde's chest.
The hand that was travelling came up and brushing along a pale throat, running over the same thin wire of a chocker he had to bite around last time. This time it was only fingers as they moved up to cradle the side of the blonde's head. And it worked perfectly.
Reno looked down the boy's already sweating body, noticing the way the black fabric hung to his body, even with the fishnet shirt covering it. And for that moment, seeing the movements, he realized that this song was one of many that suited the young blonde.
"…he can go on, and on, and on…" he mouthed along, changing the first word as his eyes shot up to gaze at his lookalike, lids only half lifted with a come hither look towards the other redhead.
Roxas leaned his head into Axel's touch, mewing softly at the contact even though there were two hands already on him. One hand was resting on his hip with an extra weight that Reno's never possessed before, the other was sprawled out across his chest, the long digits seeming ready to take over his entire being and grab at his soul.
But his soul was already gone, given to the beat of the music as his eyes, even now half-lidded, never registered anything beyond the darkness and flashing lights, the red mass appearing in his view, and the blur it all became before he closed his eyes again.
He seemed possessed by the beat and any insecurity he may have had earlier that night about this were gone in the smooth movements of the beat.
The hand atop Axel's moved down, leading the others' down the blonde's thigh, making him bend down as low as Reno had and lean his body in close to Roxas, groin against groin in a pleasurable moan that surrounded the three.
The beat was slowly fading away, changing into a new song, but the three were not ready to end the little dance yet.
The movements all came together strongly, powerful, and flowing at the same time. The crowd was dispersing even though it was a famous R&B song, dancers started leaving for other activities while the people in the line seemed to be getting tired of waiting.
More were entering, but they weren't dancing yet so the dance floor was pretty open for the famous club that this was. The three had pulled apart and at one point during one song, Roxas was surrounded by a small circle with cheers going around as he twisted and lowered his body in ways that few women tried to copy.
They were successful and soon there were about five or six of them in the circle dancing to the chorus of the song with the flowing movement of the beat.
Axel couldn't wait any longer and as soon as the chorus was over to allow the rest of the song, he broke the circle line and entered in, pulling the blonde towards him almost harshly. The two embraced and moved together, hands wound and bodies so close that there was no visible space between them.
Their solitary dance wasn't going to last though, especially not with an eager redhead ready to move out with them and enjoy the music as well. He came in and this time was behind Axel, trapping the other redhead between the two and his body moved in unison with theirs.
Reno had to bite his bottom lip as he moved, feeling Axel lean into him and pulling Roxas along, their bodies so close that he could've sworn he was feeling Roxas shudder against the other redhead.
But all three were surprised when another blonde joined into the dance from behind Roxas, his hands resting on hips that he pushed down, letting Roxas go down with a sway which led Axel followed by Reno down.
Demyx was grinning like crazy as he pulled Roxas away from the other two, easily moving the dazed blonde around as the two danced together.
Axel and Reno were both staring after the two but didn't let that stop their own movements and soon the redheads were moving together with, what looked like, practiced steps. Their hits, pops and locks were exact and soon the small circle was formed once again, this time surrounded them.
The lookalikes moved together, recognizing the steps the other was dancing – from a music video? – and changed them to match the beat of the song slightly better. When the chorus of the newest song started, the two were still in the middle of the circle and followed the instructions – although meant for a female – and started going "low, low, low, low, low, low..."
Both did so in the same manner too, leaning their shoulders back with legs spread, facing each other as their upper bodies moved back and low until they were horizontal to the ground. They shot up right at each other and with laughter did a few more steps before they moved back.
A new dancer entered the circle, danced along with the rapper's fast speech, fell to the ground on his shoulder to get back up on his feet with a roll and continued the short break dancing for a moment longer until he jumped out. The next to enter was once more Roxas, pushed in by none other than Demyx, but the younger blonde didn't even seem to care about it.
He danced along, doing a few pops and locks to the beat his old choreographer had tried to teach him once, doing them perfectly actually, and when the chorus came he started with a roll of one shoulder and his feet were back together when his hips rolled around and he went "low, low, low, low, low…"
The songs passed in a fluid moment, mostly R&B with rap and some techno or dance hits hidden in between, but the club was up, and moving and at four in the morning, the club was as full as it had been four hours ago, though not as many people on the dance floor.
The next song started with a strong beat and the yell of a crowd, followed by a rapper male speaking to the music. Sudden hits in the beat appeared while he spoke and the dance floor was once more crowded by the occupants. Everybody was pushed even closer together than before and they moved to the same beat together.
The strong beat came and while the male spoke in the background a woman's voice came in with another beat, letting the dancers chose which one to follow. Most males went with the stronger hits while their counterparts danced to the woman's voice. Roxas was one of the few males going with the woman's voice and while Axel and Reno hit with the same strong beat on the male's voice, Roxas' hands were once more in the air and his entire body rolling seductively between the two, brushing against both of them due to the proximity and twisting around like a snake.
When the two singers were signing the same strong hits together, the three moved together in a chain reaction, Reno starting the movement right into Roxas with his hips, then hitting his chest against Roxas' back to send the blonde right into the other redhead. The blonde didn't falter or fall though, instead he send his body into a seductive roll right up against Axel, ending it by remaining closer to him and his face buried in the crook of his neck.
His face was hidden there and one arm fell down to grasp onto his shoulder, holding on tight, his entire body now moving against Axel's and reminding the redhead too much of the last time his shoulder had been gripped like so by that same blonde.
Reno seemed to notice the slight discomfort in his lookalike because he came in close then and grabbed Roxas' other hand to pull him slightly back, but the blonde refused to let go. He moved his body in a slight diagonal between the two and his legs had shifted yet again to allow him to lean one side into Axel in front while the other side was pulled back against Reno.
Reno's hand was once more atop Axel's own against Roxas' hip and as before, he led it around the blonde's body then lower brushing over the blonde's groin, and to the side where it settled against his thigh. Axel's hand continued the path Reno's had abandoned and settled behind Roxas' thigh to lift it up. He pulled it ever so lightly towards him and causing Roxas to slide lower between the two redheads, his body once more parallel between them and Reno hard against his back while Axel's front remained a solid wall.
Roxas was trapped between the two and he thoroughly enjoyed it, sliding his body back up against Reno. When the older redhead started a body roll, the movement had Roxas arching his back right off of Reno's chest and into Axel's, rubbing his entire front against the younger redhead and leading Axel into another roll that send Roxas right back into Reno.
Their dancing continued for a few more songs before Axel finally showed his was tired – he'd been at the club a few hours longer than the other two – and regretted it when he had to pull away from Roxas.
As before though, the blonde followed and Axel had to hide his blush when he remembered what that had led to last time. Never again!
The three moved off the dance floor and were met shortly by a standing blonde offering two bottles towards Reno and Roxas. Axel brushed past him to the table behind and picked up his own waiting drink to take a sip out of it.
They finally settled down and while Axel seemed to be relaxing his breathing and looked ready to go again, Roxas seemed to finally come down from his high and notice who he was sitting across.
"And that's how you dance!" Demyx grinned widely.
Reno raised his glass with a smile and nodded a "cheers" to the others, who raised their own glasses to the toast.
"That was awesome, honestly…" Demyx started as he leaned back in his cushioned seta, the round U seats on the table allowing him to stretch his body and push Axel further towards the turn and Roxas. "For me, it's not the parades, the monthly celebrations or all those rights that have come out in the past decade, but that that just proved to me homosexuality is finally accepted!" the blonde screamed above the music and led the small toast. Reno was grinning along as he added in a soft "cheers to the queers" before he down half of his drink in one go.
Roxas was a little less reluctant to toast to that, however he still raised his bottle. He was, after all, right in the middle of the two redheads now sitting at the table.
"I thin you guys just taught the entire club on how to dance."
"They need it," Reno laughed along with Demyx, neither seeming to notice – or just simply ignoring – the discomfort shared between the other two at the table.
Axel sighed softly as he finished his drink and was looking down at the empty bottle as if trying to find the last drops out of hiding and consume them as well. A hand rested against his forearm and he looked up to the source to see Roxas' worried expression as the boy spoke a quite "you okay?" so quiet, that Axel understood it by the moving lips, not the words.
Those lips were then bitten as the blonde's worry appeared on his features, but they were quickly released when Axel's fingers reached out and scared the bite away by running along the lips.
"We need to talk," he spoke quietly as well, exaggerating the movements of his lips a little so Roxas could read them.
And the blonde had, for he nodded as his eyes went down to his bottle, eyeing the drink he had opened as soon as it was given to him and knowing that he couldn't use the excuse of "drugs being slipped inside it" unless he had been the one to slip them in.
He leaned towards Reno, shooed the man off the seta and slid out behind him. Axel did the same to Demyx and while Roxas leaned down to whisper to Reno "I'll be back in a bit", the other redhead just started off.
Reno nodded with a soft smile, placing his keys inside Roxas' hand and mouthing out "it's cold out" as an excuse.
It was shortly that the two found themselves in another alley, walking out into the cold morning and breathing in the frozen air, the moisture on their bodies causing them to quickly regret going outside. But they needed to talk.
"So…" Axel started as he followed Roxas towards the near parking lot. "That's Reno?" he asked suddenly, causing the other to falter a moment before he nodded and looked down at the car he had stepped up to.
He unlocked the door, slid inside and leaned across the handbrake and gear shift to open the door for Axel, letting the other slip inside. The keys were soon in the ignition and turned, allowing for warm air to fill the car and hover around their shivering bodies.
"He's…"
"Everybody says he looks a lot like you," Roxas smiled softly, his eyes going down to his lap where his hands rested.
He was small, especially when compared to either Axel or Reno and with his body hunched and bent onto itself, he appeared even smaller in the seat in front of the wheel.
"Hmm…" Axel nodded and leaned against the window, his body already warming up. His elbow rested against the glass on the edge and his head into his open palm as he looked out towards the club. "He seems nice."
Roxas nodded almost stiffly. "He is."
"Hmm…"
Once more silence filled the car, an uncomfortable pause that had both of them wanting to break it, yet neither knowing with what.
"I hope he's treating you okay," Axel suddenly started and turned towards the blonde, noticing the surprise flash across those blue eyes.
"He is…" Roxas answered, not really understanding where Axel was going with this.
"You sure? Cuz if he isn't, I am gonna hurt him!" the redhead suddenly blazed to life with the threat, his eyes narrowing slightly before turning away when he noticed the fear they sparked in Roxas' blues.
"No, no… everything is fine…" Roxas sighed softly, still not understanding any of it, but not knowing how to ask.
Axel looked over at him and sighed softly, his expression finally softening when he leaned closer to the blond. He remembered his place though and used the movement as an excuse to set himself more comfortably in the seat and face straight forward. "So… did you guys get in a fight or something that night?" Axel asked again.
The blonde was still finding the questions strange, but chose to answer them rather than question them. "No… I just needed to loosen up before the competition…" he suddenly realized his words and blushed a bright red when he looked down "…I mean the clubbing. And because I usually don't go clubbing I didn't ask him to come with me," he added in so quickly that it took a moment for Axel to decipher the words.
"He goes clubbing?"
"Constantly!"
"Not with you?" Roxas shrugged softly and shook his head. "Why not?"
"I don't usually go clubbing?" the blonde more questioned than answered and smiled softly before he looked down at his lap again.
"But if you guys are together then—"
"Wait, wait!" Roxas suddenly jumped and he understood the questions. "Together?"
"Yea?" Axel was completely surprised as the blonde had turned fully towards him in his seat, seeming almost as alive as he had on the dance floor. "Aren't you guys… you know…" he asked softly and after a pause elaborated "…isn't that why you screamed—"
"No!" Roxas suddenly shot up in defense. "He's straight!"
The news had caught Axel completely off guard and he suddenly straightened as well. "Straight? After that show?" he pointed back to the club.
"Yea… he's my dance partner and friend… that's it!"
The silence overtook them. "So you like him?"
Roxas rolled his eyes in annoyance and looked out his own window. "I guess screaming out his name wasn't enough for you to find that little gem out?" he asked with a roll of his eyes and a blush staining his cheeks.
"So then I was…" Roxas quieted down and looked down once more, ashamed of himself for having used Axel like that. "…a replacement."
"No!" Roxas suddenly rejected and turned to him. "I went with you because I knew you weren't him, I just… I wanted something new… somebody different, somebody who—" the rest of the words were cut out as Axel leaned over the handbrake and captured Roxas' face with one hand and his lips with his own in a chaste kiss.
Wasn't him. Roxas finished the thought and closed his eyes to relax into the kiss. This was definitely not Reno… as much as he had wished at first for it to be.
