Fingers stroked Axel's fiery hair as they sat alongside one another. The remaining people had moved away after the devastation that befell Twilight Town. Nature had reclaimed the land around the tower and it was beautiful. Tall enough to see the sea. Roxas had protected the tower from the outside world. Time passed differently here. Only those who knew it existed could find it. The world had forgotten their insignificant blot on the map. Roxas had recruited several followers, locating those with an affinity for magic with the help of his book.
Reno had vehemently fought Roxas about whether or not Axel would be staying by his side. Hence he had spent a significant amount of time as a hell hound, just as Roxas had promised. Even so, they still spent quite a bit of time disagreeing.
"Are you ever going to change him back?" Axel asked, watching his brother pout across the room. Roxas' lips curved upwards.
"He'll shift back on his own once he learns to mind his master," Roxas answered, looking into the beast's eyes meaningfully. Reno growled back and the blond shrugged his shoulders. "Suit yourself."
Axel leaned into him, simply enjoying the feeling. With Roxas' help, he was learning to control his fire. There were also three sisters that each had unique powers, Xion, Namine and Kairi, as well as another pair that seemed to be inseparable. Riku and Sora. He was still learning about the others.
"You know… I was really worried that you were evil at first." Roxas chuckled a little.
"What makes you think I'm not?"
"Well, you're doing this to protect others." Roxas shrugged.
"Magic is such a precious gift," he answered without answering. "It's worth protecting." Axel simply smiled before kissing the blond gently. Reno made a noise of disgust. Roxas pulled him closer, deepening the kiss in response. Blue eyes met Reno's and with a wicked grin, darkness swirled around them. Axel gasped when he sank into a bed. Roxas was on top of him. "If it came to it, I would do whatever I had to," he admitted. "Would you hate me for that?" Axel shook his head. Purring in pleasure, Roxas took his lovely red-head's mouth. When he was gasping in pleasure, he trailed down Axel's neck. Green eyes fluttered shut as their skin brushed. He still wasn't quite used to Roxas' magic, but it never failed to excite and arouse him when the blond used this particular trick on him. Their lips met hungrily. Axel's body arched up as he pulled Roxas down, groaning in pleasure at the feel of skin against skin. He heard a displeased whine and opened his eyes, startled. Reno was in a cage at the end of the room. It was shrouded but the sound had been unmistakable. Axel laughed breathlessly.
"Must you torture him?" Roxas made a small motion with his hand, and Reno's whining ceased.
"Yes," he breathed, taking Axel's mouth in a deep, sensual kiss. The red-head groaned, losing himself. Roxas was touching him everywhere and he was trembling in pleasure. Burning green eyes met enchanting blue. Axel wrapped his legs around Roxas' waist, moaning deliciously as they moved together. Roxas wove his fingers into red hair, pulling hard and beautiful green eyes fluttered. Axel moaned, ecstasy flooding him when Roxas thrust into him. He flushed deeply, rolling his hips with Roxas, pulling him in deeper. Pleasure crashed down on him sharply until with a gasping moan, he came. He groaned in satisfaction at the feeling of Roxas filling him moments later.
Laying beside Roxas, Axel found himself dozing in his comforting embrace. Gentle touches lulled him toward sleep. Sparkling blue eyes watched him. Axel didn't understand everything yet. He didn't have to. For now, this was enough. A warm hand pulled him down and Axel murmured "C'mere." Roxas hooked their legs together, continuing to gently touch Axel with a small smile. He pressed his lips to Axel's softly. In time, Axel would become so deeply entwined with him that it wouldn't matter. He could be patient until then.

The End
A/n: So I may or may not have gotten inspired to write a sequel. We'll see where it goes.
The Tower
xXx
Come little children, I'll take thee away, into a land of enchantment… Come little children, the time's come to play, here in my garden of magic.
A young blond blinked, returning to his senses. His hand was in a larger one and he blinked as the spell lifted. Under the moonlight, there was a beautiful tower, surrounded by the most magnificent garden. Outwardly, it was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen, but to Cloud, it seemed foreboding.
The man holding his hand was a mysterious red-head with red slashes on his cheeks. He couldn't remember how he had gotten here or where he had come from. Blue eyes widened.
"H-hello?" The door to the tower opened, light flooding into the garden.
"Welcome, child," came a soft, melodious voice. The child's gaze drifted to the most beautiful person he'd ever seen. He had blond hair and blue eyes, just like Cloud's. There was something about him that made him extra beautiful and mysterious. Cloud's body moved on its own, as if under a spell, drawn to the man. He took his hand and stepped inside. There were more children, laughing and playing together, but Cloud didn't join them. There was a red-headed man and Cloud thought he recognized him for a moment, but realized he was different.
"What about the man outside?" The blond man leading him inside hummed softly.
"Reno, come," he commanded, and the small blond blinked as a large shadowy dog bounded past them. His brows furrowed in confusion. It had the same markings on its cheeks as the man did.
"You see things as they really are, Cloud," Roxas murmured softly. "That's why you're special." Blond brows furrowed, just before the door swung shut on its own and he was lost in a haze of enchantment once more.
