~A-Far-Off-Memory
Chapter XII
Ven had been quietly working on some homework and snacking on some chips when he felt something in his pocket start to buzz. Realizing it was his phone, which had finally been given back to him, he pulled it out and checked the caller ID.
Vanitas.
Biting his lip, he debated whether or not to answer it. He hadn't talked to him in a week, and he found he hadn't really minded, but now that the opportunity had presented itself...
Taking a deep breath, he slid his finger across the screen and raised his phone to his ear. "Hello?"
"You've been ignoring me, Ventus."
A familiar ache filled his chest at the husky voice, and he swallowed hard. "I haven't had my phone all week...Roxas had it."
"Well that's no fun...I've missed you all week."
Ven sighed. "Vanitas...don't. Roxas told me what happened that day in school. Why would you do that do him?"
There was a pause. "What exactly did he tell you?"
Ven chewed on his lower lip. "He told me that you bumped into him on purpose and tried to start a fight with him...and that Axel and Demyx saw the whole thing..."
He heard a scoff on the other line. "True, I bumped into him, but I swear it was an accident, Ven. He just blew it out of proportion."
"But Axel...and Demyx..."
He could almost see Vanitas rolling his eyes. "Ventus, don't be dense. They're his friends, of course they're going to side with him." Sounding slightly hurt, he added, "Don't you believe me, Ven?"
The blond's head was starting to hurt. "Vanitas, I...he's my brother," he said weakly.
There was a long pause before Vanitas spoke again. "I see. Well...I just wanted to tell you I missed you and wanted to see you, but I won't bother you anymore. Goodbye, Ven."
Knowing that he only had a split second to decide what to do, he made a snap decision. "Wait!" he exclaimed, clutching the phone with both hands. When he didn't hear it hang up, he sighed with relief. "Don't go, Vanitas..."
"Why not? There's nothing I can say to make you believe me, Ventus..."
He bit his finger, mulling his decision over and weighing the pros and cons.
Pros: he'd see Vanitas, Roxas wasn't home to find out, and he'd get the contact he'd been craving all week.
Cons: he still didn't know what to think, and most terrifying at all, he thought of what Roxas would do if he did find out.
Closing his eyes, he made his decision. "Can you come get me? Roxas isn't here..." Fuck it, he thought. I need to figure this out, and I need to see him.
He heard a light chuckle. "Look out your window."
Brow furrowing, Ven stood and made his way over to his window to find Vanitas lounging against the hood of his car, grinning lazily with his phone held to his ear.
"Surprise," he drawled. "Get down here, I need those lips of yours."
"You don't need to tell me twice," Ven mumbled before hanging up and throwing his phone on his bed, slipping his feet into whatever shoes he could find and throwing a light sweater on.
Hastily, he ran down the stairs, taking them two at a time. In his haste, he didn't even grab his keys or phone, but he didn't care enough to go back for them. Throwing the front door open and making sure it was locked, he ran to the arms that were opened to him.
Grabbing him by the hair, Vanitas tilted his head back and kissed him roughly, drawing a soft moan from the blond's throat. Before he knew it, he was pressed against the hood of the car, with Vanitas' tongue ravaging the inside of his mouth. Ven's hands reached up, fingers twining into thick black hair and tugging lightly.
"Vanitas," he gasped out when he felt a tongue slide down his neck, causing him to shiver as a fire ignited in his belly. "Vanitas, not here—"
"My apartment, then," Vanitas purred, nipping at Ven's neck once before standing, striding to the door of his car. "Get in."
Ven did so immediately, sliding into the passenger seat. Vanitas' sleek car hummed to life, and he quickly pulled out of the driveway and sped toward his apartment uptown.
Feeling bold and slightly devilish, Ven leaned over the centre console, hand resting on the black-haired man's upper thigh and drawing circles there with his fingers as he placed open-mouthed kisses up and down his neck. He saw Vanitas' fingers tighten on both the wheel and gear-shift, heard his breath catch.
"You're going to get us killed," the golden-eyed man said calmly, managing to keep his voice even.
Ven grinned against his neck, nipping the smooth flesh playfully. "I have faith in your driving skills, Van...and I haven't seen you in a week, I need you," he breathed, punctuating his sentence with a sinful lick as his fingers trailed lightly over the front of the older man's jeans.
"Fuck," Vanitas groaned, driving faster in an effort to reach his apartment faster. "I swear, the second we get into my apartment...you're mine," he ground out, a muscle in his cheek jumping as he clenched his jaw tightly.
"That's what I was hoping for," the blond replied, continuing his ministrations with a smirk.
The second they got out of the car, Vanitas practically drug Ven to his apartment. Once inside, he threw him against the door and pressed their bodies together, lips meeting in a feverish, desperate kiss. Ven slid his hands up under Vanitas' shirt, tracing the defined abs there, while Vanitas gripped his hips tightly and pushed their lower halves flush together.
"Vanitas, I need you," Ven breathed into the kiss, biting at the older man's lower lip.
He felt a smirk against his lips. "Really now?" he questioned, grinding their hips together and drawing a strangled moan from the blond's throat.
"Fuck, yes," he swore, resting his head back against the door and feeling his blood rushing downward.
"Who am I to deny such a request?" he purred, tilting his head down to suck on Ven's neck. The action made his knees weak.
That being said, Vanitas lifted the teen and carried him to the bedroom and deposited him on the bed, crawling on top of him with a predatory glint in his eyes.
"You're going to lose your fucking voice by the time I'm done with you," he growled in the blond's ear, making him shiver as he tugged at Vanitas' shirt. The black-haired man pulled the shirt over his head, revealing a glorious set of abs along with muscled pecs and defined pelvic muscles.
Unable to resist, Ven's hands began exploring the smooth expanse of skin, entranced by the perfection he found. Vanitas just let him, watching him with smouldering golden eyes.
"Hang on, my contacts are bothering me," he said, reaching on the nightstand for the small white contact lens case. With quick efficiency, he popped out the golden lenses, revealing a stunning emerald green.
"Why do you cover those pretty eyes?" Ven questioned, mesmerized by their sheer beauty. They were a much darker green than Axel's or Demyx's.
"I don't like them," he replied, his tone ringing with finality as he practically ripped Ven's shirt from his body and pressed their lips together once more, effectively cutting off all conversation.
A deep moan left the blond as hands slid down his back and under both his jeans and boxers, squeezing his ass cheeks and massaging them. He arched into the body above him, a whimper escaping his throat.
"You're mine, Ventus," Vanitas growled as he jerked the teen's jeans down his hips, followed by the boxers. "You'd do well not to forget that."
Ven shuddered at the almost dark, possessive tone in his voice, suddenly getting a bad feeling. However, he simply nodded and whispered, "Yes, Vanitas."
"So I'll see you tomorrow?" Roxas asked hopefully as Axel parked outside his house. (a/n: okay this literally said head instead of house I think I'm on crack)
Grinning, the redhead leaned over and kissed him softly. "If you want. Here, I'll walk you in," he replied, unbuckling his seatbelt.
Hand in hand, they made their way up the walkway to the front door. Roxas pulled out his key and slid it in the lock, turning it and pushing the door open.
"Ven!" he called, peeking around with a grin. "I'm home!"
He waited a moment, but there was no answer.
Brow furrowed, Roxas slipped his shoes off and moved toward the stairs. He heard Axel close the front door and take his shoes off as well, following him.
"Ven?" he questioned when they reached the top of the stairs.
"Ven?" Axel echoed, glancing around.
Chewing his lip nervously, Roxas knocked on his bedroom door and waited.
Nothing.
Screw it, he thought, pushing the door open.
Ven's light was on, and homework was scattered all over his bed along with a bag of chips. His phone lay on his pillow, and when Roxas tried to check it, he was blocked by a password.
"Where the fuck is he?"
Roxas felt warm hands grip his shoulders, slowly massaging them. "Calm down, Rox, I'm sure he's with a friend or something," he said softly, kissing his cheek.
"But...why didn't he take his phone?" he asked, feeling his anxiety start to spike. "What if someone got in and-and took him?"
He both heard and felt Axel sigh. "Roxas, for one thing, there's no sign of forced entry. Another thing, there are no signs of a struggle. I'm sure he just forgot his phone." His hands slid down, enveloping the blond in a hug. "Just breathe, Rox. He'll be back tonight or tomorrow, I'm sure of it." He paused. "If you want, Roxas...I'll stay with you. If you don't wanna be alone till he gets back..."
Turning, Roxas hugged him back and nuzzled his face into the redhead's chest. "I'd like that a lot."
With that said, they headed to the living room and switched the tv on, cuddling together on the loveseat and pulling a warm afghan over themselves. Axel's arm went around Roxas as he kissed the blond's forehead, lips lingering a moment.
"I wonder how the girls are doing," Roxas murmured, absently watching the tv as Axel toyed with his hair.
Axel chuckled. "I'm sure they're having a blast."
The blond sighed. "I'm just worried...Naminé's never been to a sleepover before. I hope she's doing okay."
Axel pulled him closer. "I'm sure she's just fine, Roxas. She's a brave little girl, she's probably handling it like a champ," he assured him, smiling.
"Yeah, I guess." Feeling slightly better, he let a laugh escape as he nuzzled his face into Axel's neck. "Earlier, when I was dropping her off at Sora's, she asked me if you and I were dating. Said that we acted like Sora and Riku, and she saw us kiss the other night when I dropped you off at the university." He grinned. "I told her no, but I guess that isn't true anymore..."
Playfully, Axel pushed him down into the couch cushions, hovering over him with a mischievous grin. "Damn right it isn't! You're mine, Roxas, and that isn't gonna change," he murmured, rubbing their noses together before their lips touched sweetly.
Roxas breathed him in, lazily swinging his arms around the redhead's neck to kiss him more firmly. He didn't mind being Axel's.
Not one bit.
Roxas' first thoughts when he opened his eyes were that he wasn't where he'd fallen asleep and that he wasn't alone.
He didn't remember falling asleep, but he also didn't remember going up to his room. Realizing he must have fallen asleep when he and Axel were watching tv and waiting for Ven, he came to the conclusion that the redhead carried him to bed.
Smiling softly, he reached up a hand to gently caress Axel's face, running his fingers lightly over closed eyelids, the curve of his nose and slightly parted lips. It seemed so surreal, yet so natural, to be laying there with him like that.
This is my boyfriend, he thought with a start. A warm feeling bubbled up in his chest. He's all mine, and I'm all his.
He looked so peaceful, eyes moving behind his lids as he dreamed. His bright hair was wild and messy, and Roxas allowed the smallest of chuckles to escape.
He wasn't sure how long he'd been laying there, just admiring Axel, before he heard footsteps on the stairs. Seconds later, there was a soft knock on his door.
"Come in," he called softly, not wanting to wake Axel.
The door cracked open, revealing a tired looking Ven. Letting out a sigh of relief, Roxas raised a finger to his lips and pointed to Axel before gently extracting himself from the embrace, managing to do so without the redhead waking.
He joined Ven in the hall, softly shutting the door before throwing his arms around his brother.
"Jesus, Ven, where were you? I was worried sick, you didn't take your phone or leave a note..."
Ven hugged him back. "I'm sorry, I forgot...I was at Zexion's last night, he was lonely and wanted to hang out. I needed help with chemistry anyway. Sorry to worry you, Rox," he murmured.
"I'm just glad you're okay," he said softly, giving him an extra squeeze before letting go to examine him. "Jeez, Ven, you look like hell...did you two even sleep last night?"
Ven looked down, releasing a chuckle that almost seemed forced. "We watched movies all night. Superhero marathon."
Roxas shook his head in amusement. "You'd better get up for school in the morning."
Ven looked up, smiling a little. "I will, don't worry." Suddenly, he smirked. "Judging by those hickeys on your neck and the fact that he's sleeping in your room, I'm guessing your date with Axel went well last night?"
Blushing, Roxas reached up to cover his neck. "Oh, shush." He bit his lip, smiling. "But...it was amazing, Ven. We're, uh...he's...I'm dating Axel," he finally managed to say, feeling his smile widen as he said it out loud.
Ven's mouth fell open, the corners tilted up. "Seriously?"
Roxas nodded. "I even told him about Seifer...he told me he'd never do anything like that to me, and...I think I believe him, Ven. He's so sweet and caring..."
"I'm so happy for you, Roxas," he said with a smile, although his eyes were filled with a strange sadness that Roxas decided not to question.
"Thanks, Ven," he murmured, hugging his brother one last time before turning back to his door. "I'm gonna wake Axel up and make him make us breakfast, why don't you shower?"
The younger blond nodded and headed toward the bathroom. Roxas opened his door and crept over to the bed, climbing on and hovering over Axel. With a devilish smile, he leaned down and pressed their lips together.
Within seconds, sleepy green eyes fluttered open. Smiling into the kiss, Axel tiredly wrapped his arms around Roxas' waist and properly returned the kiss.
"That is officially the best way I've ever woken up," Axel murmured, voice thick with sleep, once their lips disconnected.
"Ven's home," he informed the redhead with a grin. "We want breakfast, Mister Culinary Major."
The redhead yawned, letting out a chuckle as he did so. "Ah, I see how it is. Manipulate me with kisses and puppy dog eyes so that I'll make you food. What if I don't feel like cooking?"
Roxas widened his eyes, lower lip jutting out and even trembling a little. "But you're such a good cook, Axie," he said with a slight whine, fingers climbing up the redhead's bare—whoa, when did that happen?—chest until they reached his chin, tilting his face up. "And I love eating your cooking..." he added, voice dropping as his lips grew closer and closer to Axel's. "I'd really love it if you cooked, Axel..."
Axel groaned deeply as their lips touched, arms snaking around the blond's waist and pulling them flush against one another. Smirking, knowing he'd won, Roxas kissed him deeper, opening his mouth to allow Axel's entrance. Their tongues mingled languidly, neither really fighting for any kind of dominance.
"Does this mean you'll cook?" Roxas asked with a cheeky grin as they separated for air, blue eyes shining.
Axel flipped them, a playful glint in his green eyes. "You cheeky little bastard," he murmured, peppering kisses all over his face and neck. "Not even a full day of dating and you already have me wrapped around your finger..." he breathed, breath hot on Roxas' ear. The blond squirmed under him, breath catching when he felt a hot tongue slide over the shell. "Two can play at that game, my dear." With that, he connected their lips once more, more forcefully than Roxas had. The blond felt his breath be stolen as his mouth was pried open by a questing tongue, the tiniest of moans escaping his throat.
"Hey, Roxas—whoa, sorry to interrupt."
The two separated at Ven's amused voice as the younger Strife entered the room, finding him smirking.
Sitting up and attempting to slow his heart, Roxas cleared his throat and told himself not to blush. "Something you needed, Ven?" he questioned, somehow managing to keep his voice even.
Ven smirked wider. "Just wondering if we had more shower gel," he replied breezily.
"Under the bathroom sink," Roxas told him, leaning back against the headboard.
"What do you want for breakfast?" Axel asked, seemingly unaffected by Ven's appearance.
"I'm not picky, and if you're as good at cooking as Roxas says, I'm sure whatever you make will be fine," he responded before exiting.
Axel sat up and crossed his arms—well hello, muscles—over his bare—was he trying to kill him?—chest, one eyebrow quirked. "You brag about my cooking?" he questioned, tone amused.
Roxas rolled his eyes, cheeks reddening slightly. "I just told him it was good, I don't brag—"
Soft lips cut off his protest, and he felt a smile against his mouth. "I'm flattered, Roxy," he whispered, chuckling. "It's cute that you talk about me."
Rolling his eyes again, Roxas placed his hands on Axel's chest and shoved him playfully. "Ah, shut it," he laughed, rolling out of bed. He was nearly at the door when his legs were knocked out from underneath him. A surprised shout left him as he fell toward the floor, only to be swept up by two strong arms and carried bridal-style from the room.
"What was that for?!" he shrieked, squirming. "Put me down!"
Axel grinned down at him. "But where's the fun in that? I like having you in my arms," he purred, green eyes glinting.
Roxas pouted, crossing his arms. "I'm perfectly capable of walking."
"I know," Axel replied, chuckling. "I'm serious, though. I like holding you..."
Roxas felt his face soften, and he finally gave up and nuzzled his face into Axel's warm chest.
Once they reached the kitchen, Axel let Roxas down, pecking his lips before letting him go completely.
"Go ahead and look through the fridge and cupboards, I went shopping the other day so we should have plenty of stuff," Roxas told him, taking a seat at the table and grinning.
Axel chuckled. "So you're just gonna sit there and look pretty while I do all the work?"
"Pretty much," the blond replied, settling back in his chair.
Sighing and shaking his head, Axel got to work looking for things to cook. Roxas simply watched him, biting his lip when he noticed the dimples at the bottom of his spine and the way his jeans hung low on his narrow hips. His skin was pale, marked here and there with even paler scars, and though he was very thin and lanky, lean muscles covered his body.
He was perfect.
It was almost funny that he'd never really noticed it before. He'd been too busy looking for reasons to hate Axel that he'd never properly looked at him or gotten to know him, and he definitely regretted it. Axel was beautiful, inside and out.
"Done staring?" Axel questioned with a lazy smirk, bringing the blond out of his reverie.
Grinning unashamedly at being caught ogling, Roxas stood to wrap his arms around the redhead. "Sorry, I was just admiring my perfect boyfriend," he murmured, chuckling.
"I really love the sound of that, you know," Axel told him, tucking a stray piece if blond hair behind Roxas' ear. "I don't know if I'll ever get enough of it."
Roxas' expression softened. "Well, you'll have plenty of time. You wanted me, now you're stuck with me."
"I wouldn't have it any other way," the redhead said softly, nuzzling their noses together affectionately before kissing the tip of Roxas'. "I can't think of anyone I'd rather be stuck with."
"Sap," Roxas teased, hugging him tighter and burying his face in Axel's chest. He planted a soft kiss right in the center, sighing in content.
"You bring it out in me," the redhead whispered, kissing the crown of his head.
"You two are disgusting," Ven muttered as he entered the kitchen, hair damp with a towel around his neck. He was dressed in an oversized black shirt along with comfy looking sweatpants, and he looked exhausted.
"Aw, Ven, don't be jealous," Axel grinned, holding Roxas tighter. "It's only a matter of time before you and Terra start dating, with the way you were looking at him," he added with a playful wink.
Ven reddened immediately, sputtering nonsense while Roxas chastised Axel halfheartedly.
The redhead shook his head in amusement. "You know it's true. You have it bad, kid."
Ven sank down in the chair Roxas had previously been occupying, wincing momentarily as he did so.. "He's just...he's gorgeous, and he's really mysterious. He never talked to anyone, but he chose to help me that day. I guess he just intrigues me."
Roxas snorted. "Well, I'd prefer him to Vanitas any day, so I say go for him."
Ven seemed to blanch at the mention of Vanitas, to their confusion.
"You okay, kid?" Axel questioned, raising an eyebrow.
Slowly, Ven nodded. "Yeah, I'm fine," he replied quietly, clearing his throat. "Just...tired. And I, uh, fell down the stairs at Zexion's, so it kinda hurts to sit..."
Roxas immediately went into mother-hen mode, disentangling himself from Axel to run over to his brother and grip his face. "Are you alright? Are you bruised? You didn't hurt yourself too bad, did you? Do we need to take you to the hospital?"
With a small smile, Ven gently pushed his brother away. "Cool it, Rox, I'm fine. The bruises will go away."
Roxas hugged him, sighing. "You worry me, Ventus..." he murmured. His brow furrowed. "By the way, are you getting sick? You sound hoarse..."
He felt Ven shrug. "Maybe...I haven't been feeling the best since last night..."
The elder Strife drew back, worried blue eyes meeting identical ones. "Well take it easy today, okay? Take a nap after breakfast or something," he told him, gently running his fingers through damp blond hair.
Ven smiled tiredly. "That sounds good."
Roxas turned back to Axel, hugging him and stretching on his toes to peck his lips. "I'm going to shower. My breakfast better be waiting for me when I get out," he said playfully, rubbing their noses together.
Axel chuckled. "Yeah, yeah, get going," he replied, connecting their lips once more before gently pushing him toward the door.
Roxas hurried up to the bathroom, stripping and jumping in the shower. He washed languidly, taking his time with washing his hair and lathering his body. In all, he took around fifteen minutes before shutting the shower off and wrapping a towel around his waist.
Immediately, he headed to his room and pulled on some boxers and sweatpants. Toweling his hair and upper body off, he let the damp towel fall to the floor and made his way back downstairs.
Immediately, his nostrils were filled with the scent of bacon. Inhaling deeply, a contented sound escaped him. Once he got closer to the kitchen, he could hear voices.
"Stir it a little faster. There you go, that's perfect! Now pour it into the frying pan, and use that spatula to move it around. Oh, and put some pepper on it."
"Like this?"
Axel's laugh was easily heard. "Perfect, kid. You're doing great."
Peeking around the corner, Roxas looked in, eyes softening at the sight he found. Axel was teaching Ven how to make scrambled eggs, it seemed, and he was leaning back against the counter with an almost proud look on his face. Ven was smiling at the redhead, soaking up the praise being given to him.
It warmed Roxas' heart to see them getting along. He knew they would, but seeing it for real made him unbelievably happy.
"Burn my eggs and die, Venny," he announced, striding into the kitchen with his arms crossed over his bare chest.
Both Axel and Ven looked over at his appearance, and the younger blond simply stuck his tongue out at him before turning back to the stove. Green eyes lingered, however, appreciatively roving over his naked upper body.
A small blush flooded to Roxas' cheeks as he made his way over to the counter, swiping a piece of bacon and biting into it. As he turned to sit down, arms wrapped around him from behind, and he felt a face nuzzle into his damp hair.
"You smell good," he mumbled, chuckling softly.
Roxas grinned. "Showers tend to make a person smell good, Ax."
"Smartass," the redhead muttered.
Roxas turned his his arms, grinning wider. "You wouldn't have me any other way."
Leaning down, Axel kissed the very tip of his nose before nuzzling it with his own. "Yeah, I guess you're right."
Ven groaned. "Ew, take your lovey-dovey shit far from me," he grumbled, shifting the eggs around in the frying pan.
"Aw, Venny, don't be jealous," Roxas said sweetly, reaching out to pinch his brother's cheek.
The younger blond scoffed. "Imagine. I'm not jealous, you two are just gross!"
Axel grinned. "Whatever you say, kid."
Soon, all the food was cooked, and the three sat down to eat. Ven grinned at the compliments he received from both Axel and Roxas on the eggs, while the Strifes practically moaned at the taste of the bacon and French toast that the redhead had made.
"So when are you two picking up the kids?" asked Ven as he leaned back in his chair, patting his stomach in content.
Roxas shrugged. "I dunno, whenever? I'm sure Ax wants to go to his house first to get dressed and stuff, am I right?"
The redhead nodded. "I need a shower and clean clothes...preferably clothes that cover these..." Grinning, he ran his fingers over the marks on his collarbones and neck.
Ven shuddered. "Okay, ew, I'm going to bed. See you guys after," he muttered, getting up and placing his plate in the sink before heading upstairs.
Roxas snorted, rising from his chair in favor of plopping down on Axel's lap and wrapping his arms around him, running his fingers through long red hair. "They look good on you," he whispered, smirking.
Long, thin fingers touched Roxas' neck, where he knew he sported marks of his own. "I could say the same to you. Just seeing them makes me want to give you more," Axel purred, waggling his eyebrows.
"Later," he breathed, pressing a soft kiss to Axel's neck before standing, a smirk on his lips. "Now come on, let's go to your place so we can get the girls soon."
Axel shook his head, chuckling. "You sure are something else, Roxas Strife. Don't ever change."

So again, sorry for any typos. Once again, iPhone xD it's so much more convenient that way, cuz I can write on the go! So yeah I'm sorry for mistakes, I'd still be very appreciative if someone wanted to be my beta xD
SO due to the fact that like everyone wanted it, the rating has been bumped up to M! You perverts, you xD it's okay we can all be perverts together :')
So Vanitas is manipulative and creepy possessive, Axel and Roxas are fucking adorable, and Ven's a liar with a sore ass /amazing summary/
If I made a tumblr, would you guys like that? I could communicate easily with y'all and we could have a huge party and I could give you guys updates instead of you all being in the dark while I cry over school xD so yeah tell me if you guys would like that, because I totally will!
Anyways I'm tired and I have stuff to do, so we must part here D: I promise I'll try to get the next chapter out fast, but I'm having a hard time finding the inspiration :(
Until I return again!
