Sequence: Axel
Roxas
Friday came and went in the blink of an eye. Before I knew it, it was Saturday; time for Roxas to meet mom. Waking up Saturday morning, I opened my eyes, took a deep breath, and sat up. Roxas was already awake, reading in the chair on the other side of the room. His legs folded beneath him, blonde hair flopping over into his face, he turned the page of the book he was reading. Watching him, I noticed the page never turned again. It was almost like he wasn't even reading. Im sure if I was closer, I would see that his eyes never moved.
He must be nervous. I wonder what he's thinking.
"Penny for your throughts?" Roxas jumped, dropping his book on the floor. Realizing it was only me, he smiled a nervous smile and picked up his book.
Marking his page and setting the book under his chair, he unfolded his legs and stood. He strode to the side of the bed, plopping himself down next to me. Wrapping my arms around his waist, I pulled him down next to me and wrapped my body around his small, cold form.
"You really think she'll like me?"
"I've told you a million times already. I know she'll like you. Stop worrying. So much. You sound like my mother!" Smiling, I burrowed my face into his coconut-scented hair. Taking a deep breath through my nose, I inhaled the sweet scent.
"Mom's gonna come back for the school concert." I said, suddenly remembering.
All was quiet for a while except for the old The Used album playing softly. The lyrics to Blue and Yellow floated through my head as I drifted back to sleep.
Should have done something
but I've gone it enough
by the way your hands were shaking
rather waste some time with you.
Just as I was about to fall asleep, I felt a light brush along my lips. Opening my eyes and looking down, I saw Roxas' index finger running along my lips. Parting my lips slightly, I waitef for the finger to brush by again. When it did, I sucked it in my mouth. Bathing the tip with my tongue, I felt Roxas squirm slightly. Pulling my head back and forth, I sucked on his finger as erotically as possible.
Pulling his finger out, Roxas flipped over and faced me, his face a mere half inch from mine. Kissing me on the nose, he smiled and got up. Sitting up, I stuck out my tongue at him and flung the covers off. Gathering a stack of clothes, I toddled out the door to the bathroom.
About ten minutes later, I walked back through the door, toweling off my hair. I caught sight of Roxas pacing the length of the room. Cute is What We Aim For played in the background. Roxas must have changed the CD. They were pretty good. Listening for a second, I recognized the song as Curse of Curves.
Throwing my towel in the laundry basket, I shook my head until my spikes flopped into their natural position. Taking Roxas by the shoulders, I steered him to the bed, sitting him down on the edge. Going to the dresser, I took to bottle of gel off and squirted a little into my hand. After rubbing my hands together, I ran my fingers through my hair so it wouldn't frizz and wiped the remaining gel on my discarded towel. Crossing the room to the bed, I stood in front of Roxas and pushed him backwards on the bed.
Straddling his hips I pressed my lips to his, determined to take away his fear of meeting my mother. Since talking wasn't doing any good, this was the next step in my mind. I heard the door open in the back of my mind, but chose to ignore it. When I felt a tap on my shoulder, I pulled away from Roxas. The small blonde was panting slightly beneath me. Looking over my shoulder, I saw Demyx standing there with a smug look on his face.
"You do realize its time to go, right? Mom's here." Smiling, I just stood up and held out a hand to Roxas. Roxas took my hand, apparently needing my assistance up if the way his knees almost gave out was any indication.
Lacing my fingers through his, I pulled him along behind me. Closing the door behind us, we followed the big burly guard down the hall. Demyx and Zexion trailed behind us, talking in hushed tones. Leading Roxas along, we walked out the front door and headed to the out building. Upon entering it, we were led to a large room at the end of the hall. The four of us filed in as Roxas got his first sight of mom.

Clutching Axels hand tighter, I took a deep breath and entered the room behind him. Looking around, I caught sight of who must have been Axel's mother.
Tall and blonde, she stood on the other side of a wooden table that looked bolted to the ground. She came around the table and Axel let go of my hand long enough to engulf her in a hug. Demyx and Zexion came up from behind, both wanting hugs too. When everyone else had successfully been hugged, she came up to me.
She was a good four or so inches taller than me with long blonde hair. Her hair, the same color of Demyx's , reached midway down her back and hung in soft waves. Up close, I saw her bright green eyes sparkle and her smooth cheeks glow. Her mouth was turned up with a smile and her white teeth shined. She was clad in bellbottom jeans with random patches organized in an ornate style. Her white tank top came to the top of her hips with a grey tank top over it. A black butterfly was stretched across the grey and she had a wide spike belt around her hips.
Smiling her warm smile, she stood in front of me.
"Hello. My name is Celes. You must be Roxas." nodding my head, I looked up into her eyes. "I've heard a lot about you between Axel and Demyx. Wanna sit? I promise I don't bite. At least, I don't bite harder than Axel." I couldn't help but laugh at that, instantly put at ease.
Going to where Axel was sitting on the table, I stood between his spread legs and felt him wrap his arms lazily around my shoulders. Zexion was sitting next to us in a chair with Demyx in his lap. Celes pulled a chair in front of us all and sat down, pulling her legs under herself Indian style. Eyeing Axel, she tried to restrain a smile.
"So what possessed you to suck the poor virgin soul out of this little blonde so he could join your guys' evil cult?" she raised an eye brow.
I felt Axel's deep rumbling laugh before I heard it.
"Jeeze mom, don't give me all the credit. Demyx over here helped." Demyx laughed.
"I mean first you guys get poor, poor Zexion. He was an alright kid before you two got ahold of him, he even got good grades, no offense Zexy love." Zexion just nodded, clearly amused by the going's on. "Now you come to me with this shrimpy blue-eyed blonde who looks like an angel, no offense Roxy love." I just smiled, thinking this was all very entertaining. "This poor kid is probably in here for no more than a small misdemeanor, when here come you three deciding your gonna take his poor virgin soul. Im ashamed to call you my sons." Sighing an over-exaggerated sigh, she shook her head and closed her eyes.
Laughing, Axel wrapped his long legs around my hips and pulled me close against him.
"It's too late mother, we've already conformed him to our will. And better yet, he's pregnant." Axel smiled his evil smile as he rested his chin on my shoulder. Celes burst out laughing.
I looked down, poking myself in the stomach. Looking over at Axel, I did my best impression of an indignant glare.
"Are you calling me fat?" I questioned. Axel laughed, kissing my cheek. Smiling, I looked over at Celes to find her smiling at Axel and I. She looked happy. Looking at me, her smiled sofened.
"Thank you Roxas love. Thank you for making my sons happy. When their happy, I'm happy. So thank you for making me happy. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. When you get out, you'll always have a home with us. Axel told me about your mom and I'm sorry. I cant see how any mother would do that to her son. Im not proud of my sons for getting themselves in here, but nothing could ever make me love them any less. I love them from the bottom of my heart." pulling myself away from Axel, I went to kneel in front of Celes. Looking her in the eye, mine began to water.
"Celes?" I asked hesitantly.
"Yes love?"
"Will you be my mom, since mine is gone?" she smiled a warm smile.
"Of course I will honey. Of course I will." smiling, she leaned down and engulfed me in a tight hug. Hugging her back, I reveled in the feeling. Hugging mom or Sora had never felt like this. This was warm and full of love and caring. Mom's hugs were brief and kind. That was all. Smiling, I squeezed back. Finally releasing each other, I stood and walked back to Axel.
Axel smiled, re-wrapping himself around me. Feeling secure and loved, I leaned back in his embrace, content.
Clearing his throat, Demyx got everyone's attention.
"I would just like to officially welcome Roxas to the family. What say all, group hug?" what started out sweet, by the end I was grimacing. Oh god, a group hug. The other three advanced on me and Axel, engulfing us in their warmth. Laughing, I squirmed until they backed off.
"So am I now one of you? Is my virgin soul officially owned by you all? Will it have its own little glass case?" laughing, I smiled at them all. We all laughed together, totally at ease.
A knock came at the door and the guard come in the door.
"Roxas, come with me. There's someone here to see you." looking puzzled, I stepped away from Axel. Looking around at everyone, I must have looked nervous.
"Come with me all?" they all nodded in agreement as I led the procession out the door. Following the guard to a smaller room at the other end of the hall, we all squished in and I faltered slightly.
Sitting on the side of the table opposite the door, was none other than my mother. Her face the picture of calm, she sat next to three boxes full of what I assumed was my stuff. Stopping completely, I felt Axel grab my hand from behind, squeezing it lightly to let me know he was there.
Taking a deep, but shuttering breath, I stepped forward to face my mother.
"Hello Roxas. And who are all these people?" facing me calmly, she regarded Axel and the others. Pointing them out one by one, they waved in turn.
"Axel, Demyx, Zexion, and Celes. Their my. Their my." drawing strength from Axel's hand surrounding mine, I took a deep breath and tried again. "Their my family."
Mom looked startled for a moment, but recovered her composure almost instantly. Pointing at the boxes on her left, she started.
"Here is all your stuff. I don't want it anymore. After today, you will please stop calling and writing. I don't want to hear from you anymore. When you get out of here, don't come back to my house, I don't want you there. It will be as if you never existed. All your paper documents are in the custody of this facility and as you'll be of age when you leave, you can lay claim to them at that time. This is everything and if you have nothing more to say, I will leave."
A single tear made its way down my face. She was being so cold, so businesslike. It hurt deeply. Taking gulping breaths, I tried to get enough breath to breath properly, but I couldn't manage it. Staring at her through hurt eyes, she only looked back with her calm, cold, glare. Turning my back on her, I marched military style out of the room. Everyone left but Celes. Once in the hallway, I turned and burried my face in Axel's chest. I could hear the shouting of Celes and mom behind me but I didnt really hear any of it. Wrapping my arms around Axel's neck, I clung for dear life. He was my anchor as my world went spiraling down.
