Demyx's Big Beach Bonfire Blowout!
"Y'know kidnapping's illegal right, Van?" Sora asked following his cousin out to the raven's car. They tossed their bags in the trunk before heading to their seats.
"Yea, but I'm not kidnapping anyone." Vanitas replied giving his cousin a look.
"Okay, so then Ven actually knows that you're dragging him to this party?" He added.
"No." He answered.
"Then you are kidnapping him!" The brunette pointed out.
Vanitas sighed turning the car on he sat back for a moment and looked at his cousin letting the air conditioner cool off the car for a bit. "Again, no. I'm taking both him and Roxas, and Venny will agree to go as long as Roxas is there with him." He smiled at him victorious in this argument. "Ready?"
Sora buckled his seatbelt quickly reaching up to grab a hold of the safety bar. "My seatbelt's on, I've got a hold of the 'oh shit' bar. Let's go!"
-XxX-
"What could they possibly be yelling about, that they haven't already yelled at each other for?" Ventus asked slamming the door to his bedroom shut hoping to muffle his parents. He already had enough trouble studying when it was quiet.
Roxas shrugged from where he was searching through Ven's closet. "Who cares?"
"What are you doing by the way?" The older of the two brothers asked as he watching his younger sibling pull out one of his old green messenger bags that he had really forgotten why he kept in the first place.
Before Roxas could answer of course his cell phone rang making the younger blonde pull it out of his pocket and answer. "Yea?"
Ven could hear the muffled voice on the other line knowing immediately that it was Sora. Honestly he should've guessed that. The two didn't go a day without talking to each other.
"Okay, we'll be out in a minute." He hung up placing his phone back in his pocket and tossing the green bag to Ven before picking up his old checkerboard bag the was sitting by the door. "C'mon, it's better then spending all day at home studying right?"
"Uh…" He unzipped his bag peeking inside. Oh that's why he'd kept this bag. Really he hadn't gone swimming in forever. He probably didn't even think when he'd stuffed his new swimsuit in there and shoved it in the closet to lay forgotten. "Where exactly are we going?"
"The beach." Roxas deadpanned.
"And how are we getting to the beach?" Ven asked.
"C'mon our rides waiting for us."
"Who's our ride? Roxas!"
-XxX-
"I think I'm going to get sick." Ventus commented leaning against the window of the car in the backseat.
Vanitas snickered a little from the driver's seat before cracking Ven's window a little letting the blonde have some fresh air. "Is it normal for you to get car-sick like this?" He asked.
"No, I'm pretty sure it's just your driving." He replied.
"Hey, I slowed down half-way." The raven defended.
"Halfway shouldn't have taken fifteen minutes on a car ride that's typically takes you an hour." Ven snapped glaring at the back of his head. "And that's only if you obey traffic laws!"
"So, I did us a favor and made the ride here a little quicker."
"Don't say that like it's a good thing!"
"Oi, Mom and Dad! Will you quit bickering for five seconds? You're making my ears bleed!" Sora complained getting a smirk from his cousin and a glare from the older blonde in the back.
"Well we're there anyway." Vanitas pointed out as he searched for a good spot to park up by the beach. "Looks like they're just starting the party."
"Party?" Ven asked as the raven pulled into a spot he deemed good enough for his car.
"Demyx's Big Beach Bonfire Blowout!" Sora answered. "The name gets longer every year, just so you know, 'Bonfire' is new."
"That's probably Axel's fault." Roxas spoke up as he reached into the trunk that Vanitas had opened for them to get his bag.
"This isn't going to be like the other parties I hear about all the time at school is it?" Ventus asked.
"Nah, Demyx's beach parties are pretty tame since they're so public." Roxas informed him. "Well…they're tame until around ten."
"Also Axel's fault." Vanitas added. "But even then Axel's usually the only one who strips." The raven held out the green bag for the blonde to take which Ven did. "So, should I take it that this is your first time at something like this?"
"Yea." The blonde replied.
-XxX-
"It's your first party, and you're going to spend it hiding over here alone?" Vanitas asked making Ven jump a little.
The blonde looked back over his shoulder at him away from the sunset he was currently watching. It really had been years since he'd been to the beach. Even then he'd never stayed long enough to see the sun setting over the water.
"It's too loud over there." He replied gesturing with his head to where most of the people were gathered. "That and Axel's a little…forward when he's drunk so I figured I'd better run away while I had the chance."
"Good idea." The raven replied taking a seat next to him.
"Vanitas?"
"Hm?"
"Why're…" He stopped trying to figure out how to word this. "Uh, I mean I guess I'm just paranoid, but why are you being so nice lately?"
"Huh?" He asked blinking at him.
"I mean it, you've been a jackass all year…well, actually longer then that, but…"
"Don't kill yourself over-thinking, Venny." Vanitas replied. "I just don't want to piss your brother off anymore. And, I guess, I like you. So I decided to use a different approach."
"Approach to what?" Ventus asked staring at him.
Those gold eyes looked up at him then. God the way the sunlight was hitting him right now…His blue eyes reflecting the gold of the sun and the blue of the sea at the same time. Those eyes, that reminded him of a mirror in a strange way. And his soft skin, practically glowing with the light. It was so…beautiful.
"Hey!"
The two were pulled from there staring contest forced to look over at Demyx who's come up behind them at some point unnoticed.
"You guys wanna walk down the dock with us?" The mullet haired blonde asked smiling at the two. He was pointing down to wear Sora, Roxas, Axel, and Riku were standing around talking.
"Sure, why not?" Vanitas replied standing up. "You coming, Ven?"
The blonde shrugged his response and stood up as well brushing some sand off the back of his pants.
"We should totally go skinny dipping!" Axel commented as they began walking down the empty dock.
"Yea." Riku agreed. "Here's an idea, Axel you strip and go all the way over there so no one has to see it!"
"Hey, Ku? Remember when I told you I was going to get you back for smacking me in the crotch?" The red-head replied shoving the other male off the dock and into the water. He was too busy laughing though to notice when Riku splashed water up at them managing to get just about everyone wet before he climbed back up on the pier.
"This dock is pretty high…" Sora commented.
"We're like five feet above the water, Sora." Roxas replied deciding to sit down at the edge.
"The water's so cool!" Demyx commented looking down into the water. It was too deep yet and you could still see the ocean floor and all the fish swimming there. "The ocean's the best!"
"Say what you want, I just can't wait for the fire!" Axel exclaimed.
"Have you ever considered the possibility that you're a pyromaniac?" Vanitas asked him.
"Once." The red-head replied smirking at him.
"Y'know I really hate heights." Sora commented leaning over to look at the water beside his best friend before pulling back to a distance from the edge that he felt was "safe."
"Sora, my feet are touching the water." Roxas pointed out. "It cannot be that high."
"Well of course, if you get too scared you and I could always go back to the beach alone." Axel suggested putting his arm around the brunette.
Roxas jumped up suddenly turning to look at Axel with a bright smile on his face. One that Ven, Sora, and Riku all knew to be completely fake and most likely dangerous. "Y'know, I've been thinking Axel. And I think we all should go skinny dipping. Let's strip."
Ventus gaped at him. His brother wasn't…serious was he? Really he had barely enough time to be horrified when Roxas had started to take off his shirt slowly.
Then there was Axel…standing loud and proud at the end of the deck in the light of the sunset provided completely and totally naked. Ventus turned away immediately he didn't care that he was practically hiding his red face in Vanitas' chest. He just didn't want to look.
"Wow, so that is your natural color after all?" Roxas commented.
"Ha! Take that, Roxy!" Sora exclaimed. "You owe me ten bucks!"
"Nice piercing." Vanitas commented smirking at the sight of Ven hiding literally in his chest. That was cute. God he was so innocent!
Roxas smiled again putting his shirt back on. "Okay, well I'll see you at the beach Axel." He added before quickly knocking the red-head off of the pier and into the water.
Ven looked up in shock at the sound in time to see his little brother and Sora grabbing Axel's clothes in a rush before running back to the beach.
"HEY!" Axel called after them realizing that he'd been tricked and he decided to start swimming back to shore.
Demyx and Riku took this moment to fall over in laughter while Vanitas joined them his arm going around Ven's shoulder as he hid his face in the crook of the blonde's neck still laughing. Maybe crying a little too. "I gotta hand it to ya, Dem. Your parties are never boring!" He managed to say between laughs as he was attempting to catch his breath now as well.
NearKunn: Would you believe me if I told you I originally wrote this before I wrote the last two chapters? I'm so disorganized…um, review! Now onto a crazy extra!
Axel: Also, just in case you were curious, Vanitas and Tsuki-chan are getting married.
Roxas: We're the announcers.
Axel: But before we get started with the wedding We're going to talk to a few of the people involved in said wedding. Here is the groom's wedding gift from the bride. *walks up to Ven who's tied up with a microphone* so, how do you feel about being a wedding gift?

Sora: Hey guys!

Roxas: You ready to get married yet Van?
Vanitas: As ready as your Mom was last night.
Roxas: …Do you want me to kill you?

Zexion: I'm inclined to do this, since Axel suddenly freaked out earlier and went crying to Roxas. Something about you being scary. Anyway, I'm supposed to ask how you feel about getting married today?
Tsuki: *Grins with a slightly unhinged look* I'm soooo excited! Vanitas will be MINE FOREVER... *Goes off into a fantasy while giggleing like a school girl*
