-6: I'm coming-
"Ax, get up. You're late." Axel rolled over on his comfy bed to see the stern expression of his room mate, Riku. The silver haired male pulled the covers off of his friend to leave him lying exposed to the cold air in only his boxers. Usually this tactic would work on most people to get them up, but the red head had a freakish tendency to not feel the cold even on the most bitter winter mornings.
"Five more minutes." Axel rolled over and fell back into light sleep. However, his rest was cut short.
"You're already five minutes late for class." Riku sat down on the edge of his friend's bed and nudged him a few times. Eventually, Axel rolled back over, climbed out of bed and headed to the bathroom for a shower all the while mumbling obscenities. The silver haired male found a familiar amusement in the way his friend acted and remembered how he never was much of a morning person.
Riku returned to his own bed and glanced over to the clock at the side. Fifteen minutes until his own class. He picked up his sketchbook then flipped it to the page he had been sketching on the night of his birthday and began to drag his pencil over some of lines he had already drawn. It had been three days since that night and Riku found himself questioning something that had never crossed his mind before, not once. He thought about talking it over with Axel but quickly dismissed that option in fear that his red headed friend would respond with a 'about fucking time'. More importantly, what would people think? Riku's reputation would be on the line for even bringing it up. He'd spent three days thinking about it. Maybe it was just a phase. The silver haired male traced the tip of the pencil over the curve of an eye on the page before and stared down at the sketch which smiled back. It had been three days since he had seen Sora, the reason for his uncertainty.
"See you when you get back from work Riku. You're coming to Irvine's party right?" Axel looked expectant.
"Yeah I'm coming."
"Good. I hear Larxene will be there." The red head smirked as the words left him and noticed the frown upon hi friend's face. As expected. "Just thought i'd warn you before hand."
"..."
"Roxas doesn't know it yet, but he is going with me." Axel smiled at the mention of the bo'ys name, even if it was himself saying it.
"Do you even know if he swings that way Ax?"
"Of course he does, who wouldn't want this?" He gestured to himself and continued with a grin, "I swear you want me too. I see the way you gaze at me with longing and desire. You can't deny it Riku, you want some hot Axel lo-" Axel was promptly silence with a pillow to the face.
Riku rolled his eyes. "How many times do I have to tell you I'm not gay?"
His question was given no answer from the red head. "Sorry, but you can't have me, Ri. I am all Roxas'." Axel darted out of the room just quick enough to hear a pillow slam into the door.

"Mr. Xigbar, why do I always have to be the female?" Sora pouted and glared towards Roxas.
"If you insist on being partners with Roxas every time, one of you has to play the female."
"Yeah, but why me and not Rox?" the brunette questioned. It was the last lesson of the week on Friday and for each lesson Sora and Roxas had a class with Xigbar, Sora would end up playing the part of the girl; much to his annoyance.
Xigbar glanced briefly between both boys and the brunette could have sworn there was a hint of sadistic amusement in his teacher's good eye. "Roxas has more of a dominance about him when he plays the male role." was the given answer.
Roxas couldn't hold back his fit of laughter at the comment and Sora directed his glare now at his teacher. "What's that supposed to mean?"
"No worries Sora, you play a female role better than Roxas." Xigbar offered.
"What the hell kinda compliment is that?!" the brunette's pout became more of a sneer to accompany the death glare. Sora received no answer, just a hand on his shoulder as his teacher left to talk to Aerith.
"HEY! Rox! Sora! Is your class over yet?" Demyx peered through the double doors leading into the room and caught the unamused expression of his friend's teacher. "Oh, erm, we'll just wait at the back." The tall blond quietly entered the room followed by Namine and Riku who all took a seat in the chairs towards the back of the room.
Roxas and Sora gave a quick wave to their friends before turning back to listen to Xigbar. He mentioned a few things about what to expect of the next weeks lessons, how well everyone done and what a wonderful job Sora did in his female role, of course the last one was meant to annoy the small brunette which is did. The class laughed, even those at the back of the room snickered. Sora could feel eyes on the back of his head and he glanced back over his shoulder to glare at Demyx, but his eyes fell upon the silver haired male first who stared right back. Aqua orbs stayed fixated upon his own cerulean ones causing his cheeks to heat up. And then something nudged his side.
"Sora, you ok? You zoned out, class is over." Roxas nudged him again and waved a hand in front of his face.
"Oh, yeah i'm fine." He smiled brightly then followed behind his blond friend as they made their way over to those at the back of the room.
They were greeted by a slightly hyperactive Demyx, a smiling Namine and a somewhat distant looking Riku.
"Heya guys, we're going to the cafe with Riku before he starts work and wondered if you wanted to come?" the blond female rose from her chair as the two approached.
"Of course they want to come, like they have a choice!" Demyx linked arms with both Sora and Roxas and began to escort them towards the door before they could protest. Namine chuckled quietly and gestured for Riku to come too.
The brunette tugged his arm away and spun on his heels back towards the room. "One minute, I have to take my books back to my room."
"Oh, I do too." Roxas turned towards his friend.
"It's ok Rox, i'll take yours for you. I'll meet you guys there ok?" Sora offered a sheepish grin as he picked up his books and then Roxas'. He hadn't thought they would be so heavy as he swayed forward trying to keep himself upright and the books in hand. But the fall never came as he stumbled into something hard before him. Sora steadied himself and looked forward to what had stopped his potential clumsy contact with the ground and his eyes were met by a black shirt. A black shirt that covered a toned chest. Riku's chest. The silver haired male took every book from the brunette's arms. Damn, he made it look so easy.
"We'll meet you guys there, i'll take these back with Sora." Riku nodded towards the boy in front of him who blinked and stared back.
"Ok! See you there." Demyx dragged Namine and Roxas swiftly from the room.
Riku turned back to Sora who appeared to be staring at his chest. He couldn't say he minded. "Sora? You ready?"
The brunette shook his head to rid himself of his daze and then nodded. "Yeah. I can take some of the books now." He reached out towards said books but didn't manage to so much as touch it as the book bearer turned away and headed for the doors.
"Don't worry about it, lets go."

Sora and Riku stopped outside of dorm room number thirteen. The smaller male took a key from his pocket to open the door before pushing it open. Both stepped inside and the door creaked shut behind them.
"Where should I put these?" Riku nodded towards the books he held.
"Hm? Oh, just put them on my bed, it's the one on the..." he cut his sentence short as the books were placed on his bed before he could finish. "How did you know that one was mine?"
"I don't think Roxas would keep his side such a mess. You're just like Axel, if not worse." Riku sat down beside the books and scanned the room.
"Hey! What makes you think that?" Sora pouted and folded his arms over his chest.
"Is this yours?" the taller male leant back on one elbow and reached a little further up the bed to pick up a small pink stuffed toy. The brunette turned a shade of red and snatched the teddy from his hands.
"It's erm, it was a gift from Rox years ago, I just-"
"I think it's cute."
Sora's cheeks took on a somewhat deeper tint of red for the comment and for noticing the way Riku laid propped up on his elbows on HIS bed. He brought his Mr.Moogle teddy into a small embrace. "Thank you...for helping me bring the books back."
"Helping? I brought them back myself." The silver haired male couldn't help but smirk as a look of annoyance passed Sora's features. It was as amusing as it was cute. "Hey, I was joking." Riku pushed himself up from the bed and headed for the door. "Ready now? Before you make me late for work."

Roxas stared down at the glass placed before him. Demyx, himself and Namine had only just arrived and he couldn't remember having ordered a drink yet. Before him sat a red head with a wide and somewhat unnerving grin and Roxas couldn't help but inch slowly into the back of his seat in fear of his life.
"I thought you'd like a strawberry smoothie, since I had yours last time." Axel's grin shifted to an honest smile as he eyed the pretty blond boy sat opposite him.
Demyx took a seat at the red head's side and leant past him to talk to Zexion. "Oh Zexy, Ax doesn't love me anymore! Here he is buying drinks for Rox!" The blunette rolled his eyes and Demyx turned to look at Roxas. "Be careful, knowing Ax, it's probably drugged."
"HEY!" Axel sent a glare towards the blond at his side upon noticing the wide eyed expression of fear displayed on the delicate features of the blond opposite. Maybe Roxas was right to fear for his life? Or his virginity, one could not quite tell with the pyromaniac.
"I'm joking! Don't worry Roxas, we'll beat the pervert down if he tried such a thing." Demyx added as he took a sip from Zexion's coffee. Namine laughed and took a seat beside Roxas. It wasn't long before they were joined by Selphie who had decided it was time for a break, despite having only just started work. She sat by Namine and leaned her elbows onto the table.
"You're all coming to Irvine's party tonight aren't cha'?" The brunette female cast a glance to all those sat around her and waited for a reply, for which she didn't have to wait long.
"Damn right we are!" Demyx grinned and nudged Zexion in arm. "Even Zexy is venturing out of his hole to grace us with his presence." He didn't quite catch the unamused glare from the blunette. Axel and Namine followed suit with a chorus of 'yes'.
Roxas glanced past Namine to look at Selphie and asked the question currently plaguing his mind. "Who's Irvine?"
"My boyfriend of course! You're going to come too aren't you Roxas? Pleassseeeee?" Selphie clasped her hands together and pouted in hope the blond couldn't resist her best puppy dog eyes. However, said blond didn't get a chance to answer before a certain red head cut in.
"Of course he's coming! He is my date."
"WHAT?!" Roxas turned his attention towards Axel with an expression not far from a dear caught in the headlights. Had the pervert just referred to him as his date? Yes, apparently he had. "There's no way in hell i'm being your date!"
"Oh come on Roxas, you know you want me." Axel rested his chin on the palm of his hand which was currently propped up via an elbow and leaned slightly forward with a sadistic smirk. His cat like eyes stared into blue orbs that glared back.
Both Namine and Selphie suppressed their need to laugh at the completely violated look on Roxas's face upon hearing the red head's comment. Where on earth did Axel get the idea that he wanted him?
Ignoring the pervert's comment, he turned to the brunette female. "I'm coming." Luckilly, Roxas didn't quite hear the 'damn right you will' that followed in a whisper by Axel.
"Oh Roxy, I knew you'd see the truth and-" the red head was cut off mid sentence by the blond boy opposite glaring daggers in his direction.
"I'm going for Selphie, not as your date."
Axel leant back in his chair with a smug expression and kept his eyes fixated forward. What was it about those green eyes that brought heat to blond's cheeks?
"Ok Rox. But by the end of the night you will let me kiss you." And with that Roxas could no longer control the deep blush. Lucky for him, his brunette best friend arrived to take the attention away from his cheeks. Of course Axel had noticed it.
"Hiya! Sorry we took so long." Sora took a seat from a nearby empty table and positioned it at the end of his friend's table. Riku did much the same. "Rox, your face is all red, are you ok?" Or so Roxas thought the attention would be taken from his blush. But this is Sora after all.
"It's not red, and i'm fine."
The brunette shrugged it off and smiled to everyone around the table who smiled back in greeting. Selphie turned to face the two new comers with an excited grin.
"You're coming to Irvine's party tonight, aren't you Riku? And you too Sora?" she looked expectant yet also as though she already knew the answer.
"Who? Wha?" Sora blinked in confusion.
"Irvine is Selphie's boyfriend. He is having a party tonight and we're all invited." Riku flashed a quick smile towards the brunette boy before looking towards the other brunette. "Yeah, i'm coming."
Selphie clapped her hands in more excitement and leaned towards Sora. "And you too?"
Riku was going to the party. Riku who had just shown him perhaps the most stunning smile he had ever seen, even if it was for the briefest of moments. He wasn't exactly sure why, but he liked the idea of spending more time with the silver haired male. He was something Sora could get used too and was more than happy to befriend. "Yeah sure, i'll come too Selphie." He smiled his own happy smile as the female jumped to her feet.
"YAY! Ok, well I better get back to work before I am fired." She turned to Riku. "And you better get to work in five minutes mister!" Selphie disappeared into the crowd of the cafe.

It had been just over half an hour before everyone left to return to their dorms. Selphie and Riku would be working until around six and the party started at seven. Sora sat against the wall on his bed while clutching at Mr.Moogle as Roxas sifted through his clothes for what to wear. For someone who didn't seem to keen on going, he was sure making an effort to look pretty.
"Hey Sora, what about this?" Roxas stood in the centre of the room at the space between the two beds and held out a black and white shirt for the other male's inspection. As expected, the brunette gave a smile with two thumbs up to indicate it was in fact a good choice.
"Looks good Rox. So...you getting pretty for Axel?"
The blond's expression immediately took on a slight look of annoyance to accompany the growing blush in contrast to his former calm and indifferent aura. He dropped the shirt onto the bed and turned to face his smirking friend. "I'm not doing anything for Axel."
"Oh really? You're so defensive about him, it's suspicious." Sora grinned and dodged the pillow aimed at his head.
"You're one to talk...your cheeks rival a tomato every time Riku looks at you." Roxas caught the shocked expression on the brunette's face. "Yes Sora, I see it."
"It's not like that, you know i'm not gay."
"Now who's defensive?"
Sora glanced around the room quickly to find something of interest and perhaps change the subject. He wasn't sure he liked where this one was going. His eyes travelled the walls and back around until they fell upon Roxas. Was he that close before? The blond leaned forward towards him with a look of complete seriousness. And then before Sora knew it, he was pinned beneath a triumphant looking Roxas.
"I win!"
The brunette wriggled free and pounced his friend in an attempt to bring him down but failed as said friend moved out of the way. And again, Sora was pinned.
"AH! No fair Rox you cheated!"
"How is being faster than you cheating?" Roxas raised an eyebrow as he stared down at his prey. He glanced back over his shoulder as the door creaked open and a head peered around the door bearing a perverted grin.
"I better not tell Axel about this or he'll kill Sora." Demyx stepped into the room and let the door close. Before him was a distressed looking Sora pinned to his bed beneath a shirtless Roxas. Of course the tall blond had jumped to the wrong conclusion as he always did. "Anyway, we're leaving for Irvine's at seven. Axel is driving us. Zexion and Namine are going with Riku. Erm, i'll let you get back to what you were doing." Demyx slowly edged out of the room with a wink.
The two boys swiftly moved from Sora's bed and both began to pick out what to wear. The conversation of Axel and Riku didn't arise again that night.
