"Oh man, Watery Illusion is great live!" Roxas was saying eagerly to Sora. "Ienzo - he's the bass guitarist - said they're planning to do a smaller-venue tour next year. I told him to come to Twilight Town. Wouldn't that be fantastic?"

Sora chuckled. "I swear, he's been on a high all week from that concert," he informed the rest of their friends, gathered around a circle on Kairi's living room floor.

Naminé, tucked under Roxas's arm, gave him a quick kiss. "I'm glad you had fun," she said. "It's a shame we both couldn't go," she continued.

"That concert was sold out for months," Kairi told her sister, sounding a little annoyed. "I told you. In fact, I don't even know how you got tickets, Axel."

"He 'called in a favour'," Roxas answered for his best friend, wriggling his eyebrows. "Oh man - you should've seen it though. Axel got us in backstage. We walked up to the bouncer, and went like we were going to walk straight past them. Axel did that thing - you know the 'I'm so important' thing -" The group laughed. They all know what he meant by that. "And then when the bouncer grabbed his arm, he just said in that voice: excuse me? Don't you know who the fuck I am? And I fucking swear - the guy looked like he was about to be fired! He just let us go straight in!"

The group was laughing. Well. Not Naminé. She was looking Axel over as the redhead himself came in, carrying a six-pack of glass coke bottles. "I don't see how anyone could think such a slob was a Very Important Person."

Axel didn't even skip a beat. He settled down next Roxas, as he smoothly said: "it's all about the attitude." He opened two bottles and handed one to Roxas. "So, what are we playing? Truth or dare?"

"Eh, too lazy for dares," Sora said, leaning against Riku tiredly. "Never Have I Ever?"

Everyone took up that idea, though Roxas could feel Naminé shifting uncomfortably beside him. He knew she didn't like hearing about all the stuff they did - especially when player was her boyfriend, and another was her older sister. But she didn't leave, staying put where she was.

The dares did not even start out tame. Hayner kicked off with "Never have I ever been fucked in the ass" and the game went off with almost everyone drinking - except Axel and Olette.

Naminé, who purposefully not playing, looked horrified at her sister. "Kairi?"

She rolled her eyes. "If you don't want to know, don't hang around, Naminé." Then, since she was next to Hayner, "never have I ever got off in the library."

"Kairi!" Selphie shrieked, "I told you that in confidence!" To which the group laughed and a number of players drank to it.

The game continued in much the same way, a lot of laughter, purposeful sabotage, too much drinking, and Naminé's continually growing horror.

At least until the game came to a screeching halt. Everybody in the group knew the answers - and if someone suddenly had to drank when they hadn't for that question before, it was was never met with much more than some high-fiving or a 'finally!' or two. Until…

"Never have I ever," Wakka declared, "had another person's penis in my mouth."

The group booed him playfully, but one by one they all fell into a stunned silence. Roxas, who was sipping his coke, noticed the attention was on their side of the room. Not Naminé, she wasn't playing.

He glanced aside at Axel, and made a surprised noise when he realised the redhead was finishing his own drink. "What?" He asked, shocked.

It broke the silence, and Axel was getting the usual congratulations. But then, Sora's voice cut through. "Wait, why are you surprised, Roxas? Wasn't it your dick?"

The room fell silent again at that, everyone looking between Roxas and Axel in surprise. "No it wasn't," Roxas said grumpily. "Axe you didn't even tell me."

He shrugged. "No big deal."

"You popped your mouth cherry!" Roxas replied back, "You lost your blowjob virginity!"

One broad shoulder lifted and dropped back down. "Well, not the whole virginity."

"Dude! He didn't even blow you in return?" Sora commiserated, grimacing a little.

"Come on, who was it?" Olette asked, looking at him with curiosity.

Axel gave a sinful smirk, looking at her over the top of his bottle. "Never have I ever given a celebrity a blowjob," he replied, then very obviously drank to his own question.

She shrieked in surprise. "Emyd? You sucked Emyd Shirabe's dick?"

A couple of the others started complaining about how loud she was, but Roxas couldn't pay attention. He was picturing Emyd, the lazy smirk and carefree personality, lazing about on the couch in the dressing room. And how he and Axel had lazily waved them off when Ienzo offered to show Roxas the tour map in the green room.

Fuck, that's when they'd done it, wasn't it? When Axel got on his knees for that stupid, mullet-head and let him in his mouth.

He stood up, realising it was too abrupt - Naminé gave him an annoyed look, and several others looked surprised. "Gotta piss," he lied and stalked off towards the stairs to go upstairs to the bathroom.

Somehow he wasn't even surprised when Axel slipped into the bathroom after him, standing arms folded against the door. "What's up, Roxas?" He asked, sounding genuinely concerned.

"Emyd Shirabe, Axel? What, don't you have any standards?" He sneered.

"Emyd's cute," he replied, shrugging. "Is that what you're pissy about? 'Cause you really shouldn't talk, you're dating Naminé Weis. She's one hundred times more annoying than Emyd.

"Fuck off!" Roxas snapped. He wasn't even sure why he was mad any more. He just couldn't stop picturing it and it was pissing off more and more with every second. "Obviously you didn't even want me to know, because you couldn't tell me before the entire fucking room!"

"Well I was going to!" Axel snapped back. "But as soon as we got back to the hotel you just had to call Naminé and tell her every minute detail!"

"Oh my god, this has nothing to do with her!" Roxas snarled. "Why do you have to bring her up every time we fucking talk?"

"Because you do nothing but spend time with her now!" he growled. "You even brought her to Zombie Werewolves Three! And then you had to stop watching every thirty seconds to explain the plot since she'd never seen it before!"

"She's my girlfriend!"

"I'm well aware!"

They glared at each other in silence, chests heaving with breath. Axel was all splotchy with anger around his neck, fists clenched at his sides. Roxas kind of wanted to make out with him right there against the door. The last time he'd seen Axel this worked up was after a particularly good frottage session before he and Naminé had become exclusive.

He was so goddamn horny. And Axel's hand was way better than his own.

He turned quickly and splashed his face with water.

Axel snorted in disgust and opened the door. "I'm going home."

"Your our designated driver!" Roxas reminded him angrily.

"I'll leave you my keys. I want a walk anyway." He slammed the bathroom door behind him and walked away.
