Word to the wise: Parts of this may seem random but there is actually some use to it. If you find some of this to be completely ridiculous then you can flame me. Just this once. Reading over this chapter, I thought 'I'm insane that's it there's no help for me now.' Anywho, Xaldin and Xigbar are back, just so you know.

An ear-splitting screech shook the house. Xemnas, instead of being the hero and jumping courageously out of bed to see what was wrong, turned over and pulled the covers over his head. From down the hall he could hear commotion coming from Xehanort's room. He smiled happily.
" Get out of my room, you perverts!" Xehanort wailed. The sound of a door slamming could be heard then the rumble of feet running down the wooden hallway before his own door was thrown open and who should be standing there but, Xigbar and Xaldin.
" Hey, Xem, We're here." Xaldin called loudly. When their friend didn't stir, Xigbar walked over and reached for the covers. He pulled them, or at least tried to, but Xemnas held on to them.
" You know, Xem, if you don't get up, we'll have to give you the same awakening as Norty over there and we know how much you hate water in your bed." Xigbar said beside him.
" Go to Hell." Xemnas muttered before turning over again.
" You know, I've been there. Real nice place. He sends his regards." Xigbar responded. Xaldin and Xemnas rolled their eyes.
" Xemnas, get up. It's 8:00 already." Xaldin said walking over to shake the covers.
" Exactly, its 8 so go back to sleep." came Xemnas' muffled voice.
" You're giving us a peep? How nice of you. But come on, Xem, get up." Xigbar said while walking around his room. There was no response.
" You know, Xigbar, Xemnas isn't a pansy like Norty. Maybe, water won't get him up." Xaldin said.
Xigbar smiled evilly.
" But I know what will." He said before they both jumped on the bed. Xemnas was finally starting to get back to sleep when suddenly it felt like he had been hit by a 747. He got the wind knocked out of him and used both fists and feet to push his friends off the bed. They fell off laughing.
" Thanks, for trying to kill me, guys." He said angrily.
" No problem." Xigbar answered and Xemnas glared at him before getting out of bed, grabbing his clothes and going to the bathroom. When he came out, he was fully dressed in a black Dog Wars shirt and jeans. Then they went downstairs.
Xehanort was angrily walking around the kitchen flinging cereal at random objects while he muttered to himself.
" Hey, Norty, I wouldn't talk to myself if I were you. It makes people think you're crazy." Xigbar said with a laugh as he walked over to the refrigerator and helped himself to some milk.
" Oh, like you're one to talk!" Xehanort spat. " And don't call me that. It's Xehanort." He added angrily.
" But Norty just rolls of the tongue." Xaldin said matter-of-factly.
" No, it doesn't." snapped Norty, I mean Xehanort.
" Anyway, Xem, how was you're date with Saix?" Xigbar asked. Xaldin and Xehanort both looked up expectantly.
" Norty, is Dad still home?" Xemnas asked. Xehanort shook his head. " Okay. We went to the movies and saw Pirates of the Caribbean 3. We talked a little before the movie started and this ass hit me with a bottle of soda to quiet us down. Saix nearly attacked the man. Then during the movie we held hands. No, we weren't being romantic, we did it without even noticing. At least I did, I'm not sure about him. Then afterwards we went to the Lady and Tramp restaurant, where the waitress hit on Saix. But he ignored her. " He said with a triumphant smile. " We shared two plates of linguine and ravioli and then walked home. We kissed on my front porch then Norty dragged us inside. I told Dad I was bi then he sent Saix home." he finished with a small frown..
" That's it? You didn't do anything else?" Xigbar asked looking disappointed.
" What could we do? Make out of the porch while I knew my Dad was inside?" Xemnas asked.
" Wait, so you purposely just kissed him because you didn't want to make out right there?" Xaldin asked. Xemnas nodded.
" Yeah, if and when we do make-out its going to be when Norty and Dad aren't home." He said with a smile.
" Cool." Xigbar said calmly and then grabbed the cereal from Xehanort.
" Hey, I was using that." He snapped. Xigbar hit him with the newspaper, which was lying on the table.
" Down, boy. Boy, sit. Good, boy." Xigbar said with a grin before trying to pat Xehanort on the head. Xehanort tried to bite his finger off. Xigbar withdrew his hand and hit him with the newspaper,agian, before pouring a bowl for himself. Xemnas stood up and made an omelet for himself and Xaldin, because neither was up for cereal.
After breakfast they went to the park, which wasn't far from school. The park was huge with a large fountain in the center and bike trails that crisscrossed through the park. Xemnas saw a flash a bright red and walked over to it. The flash of red turned out to be Axel who was in the middle of chasing Demyx around a set of park benches. The red head was dripping wet, while the blond boy was laughing his head off. Axel finally caught up to Demyx and pushed him into the fountain. The spray of cold water didn't seem to effect the blond as he sat there laughing at Axel. The others were sitting under the shade of a huge oak tree. Marluxia and Saix were sitting in the lowest branch which was a couple feet off the ground. Roxas was in the process of trying to climb the tree, much to the amusement of his companions who sat around watching and didn't lift a hand to help him.
" Xiggy, my love!" Came a shriek from the fountain. Demyx bounded up and ran toward the pony-tailed boy.
" Demmy, my sweetheart!" Xigbar yelled and ran at the blond. He tackled Demyx to the ground with a grin. Demyx struggled to get out from under him.
" I know you wanted me but I didn't know you wanted me that much." Demyx said flirtatiously. Xemnas rolled his eyes as he walked under the tree and looked up at Saix who smiled down at him. He returned the smile then pushed Roxas up on to a branch. The smaller boy let out a squeak before scrambling up on to the branch.
" Thanks, Xemnas." He called while Xemnas walked over to Xigbar and Xaldin. He grabbed them and dragged them over to the others and made them sit down before, 'they hurt themselves.'
" Aw, Xem, you have no faith in us whatsoever." Xigbar said trying to sound pitiful but failing.
" I have faith in you, I have faith you'll get into trouble if you don't sit down." Xemnas answered before walking back over to Saix. He tapped the blue-head's dark blue Converse with his hand before walking away. Saix jumped down effortlessly and followed him.
" Are you okay?" Xemnas asked as as they walk along a bike trail. Saix shook his head.
" My dad said I can't see you again, because you're black." He answered.
"Are you going to listen to him?" Xemnas asked.
" No, the doofus doesn't even know who my real friends are. He can't tell me who I can and can't date." Saix said with a scowl.
" Were you serious about last night?" Xemnas asked after a while. Saix studied him for a moment.
" Yeah, I had fun." He said with a smile.
" You're doing it again." Xemnas said with a soft groan.
"I can't help it. Besides, I don't do it all the time, just some of the time."
" Yeah, you're right. You didn't do it last night."
" That's because last night was unexpected. I didn't even know you were paying for anything."
" Expect the unexpected."
" You're right, as usual."
" And what's that supposed to mean?" Xemnas asked with a chuckle.
" It means you're usually right." Saix answered simply. Xemnas laughed and slipped a hand around his waist. As they walked behind a tree, he leaned forward and kissed Saix on the lips. Saix kissed him back. They stood there for a few minutes before Xemnas pulled away with a smile.
" I don't think we should make out in the park." He said in response to the fact that Saix had been licking his bottom lip several times. Saix nodded, looking disappointed. Xemnas kissed his cheek.
" Don't do that." He said with a small whine.
" What?" Saix asked with a smile.
" Don't pout like that." Xemnas said. " It ruins your image."
" And what if I don't care about my image?" Saix asked as he pouted again. Xemnas kissed his cheek again.
" I care about whether I can stop kissing you like this." Xemnas answered. Saix had to admit he was enjoying this attention. The only problem being he couldn't stop smiling after Xemnas kissed him. He stopped pouting and they continued walking. After one whole circuit around the park, they met back up with the others. Axel was sprawled out in the sun while Demyx, Xigbar, Xaldin and Luxord played a card game. Roxas was sitting with Zexion, Lexeaus and Vexen and listened in as the older boys talked about who the real William Shakespeare was. Larxene sat in the tree with Marluxia and they were watching everyone else. Axel raised his head when he heard Xemnas and Saix approach.
" Hey, Saix, how come you didn't tell us what happened on your date?" Axel asked loudly. Saix blushed slightly but covered it with a shrug.
" You didn't ask."He answered.
" We had to find out from Xemnas' friends." Axel said jabbing a thumb at Xigbar and Xaldin. No one saw the glare Saix gave the two boys.
"Oh yeah, Marluxia, you're right. Will does look like Orlando Bloom,. if Orlando Bloom had blond hair." Xemnas said to the pink-haired boy. Marluxia blushed.
" He dyed it. He wants to look like an elf now, for some reason." He explained. Xaldin looked up from his game and punched Xigbar lightly on the arm.
" I fold." Xaldin announced then he and Xigbar stood up. They walked passed Xemnas, instead grabbed Saix and turned him around.
" Where are we going?" Saix snarled.
" Oh, feisty. I like him." Xigbar said with a smile as he grabbed one of Saix's arms and Xaldin grabbed the other.
" Don't worry. We're just giving you the Talk." Xaldin said calmly.
" What Talk?" Saix asked looking confused.
" You know the talk we give to everyone who dates our Xemmy." Xigbar said nonchalantly.
" Yeah, and here it is." Xaldin said as they stopped and faced Saix.
" If you break Xemnas' heart, then Xaldin and I will castrate you and Xemnas will kill you." Xigbar said, suddenly sounding very serious. Saix's eyes widened slightly.
" You don't have to worry about that. I like Xemnas, a lot." Saix saids slowly.
" We know. Your friends said you follow him around like a puppy." Xaldin said with a smile. His smile grew wider when Saix blushed.
" Well, I think he's good." Xigbar said to Xaldin and they were about to leave when they heard a shout behind them. Xaldin turned around and barely missed being punched in the face. Xigbar pushed the guy away. Now, this may seem stupid if they weren't on top of a large hill. As such, the attacker fell back and rolled down the hill. Saix looked down and saw Seifer walking up. He turned back to Xigbar and Xaldin.
" That's my friend, but he doesn't like Xemnas so don't tell him that we went on a date." He whispered. They nodded.
" Hey Saix, are these guys bothering you?" Seifer asked while he glared at Xaldin.
" Of course we weren't bothering him, doll face." Xigbar said, in a stereotypically gay voice, as he twinned a finger around Saix's hair. " We were just talking with him about... Xaldin, what were we talking about with this fine piece of manliness?" Xigbar asked looking at Xaldin who shrugged.
" I didn't know you were talking, I was just thinking about how I can get into your pants." He said with a smile. Xigbar smiled and pushed Saix away.
" Oh, Xally-poo. I didn't know you cared." Xigbar screeched. Xaldin wrapped his arms around Xigbar's waist and put a hand to his cheek.
" Of course I care, Xiggy." He said and leaned forward to kiss him.
" Hold it! Let me get out of here first, you freaks." Seifer yelled and ran down the hill. Saix watched him go before he heard Xigbar and Xaldin laughing. He turned around to see they were both on the ground. Xaldin was sitting down as he held his stomach. He was crying and laughing at the same time. Xigbar was on his stomach banging his fists against the ground. He rolled over to stand up but instead rolled down the way they had originally came. Xaldin threw back his head and started laughing all over again. Saix sighed and walked down the hill. His friends were staring at Xigbar, who was still on the ground, laughing. Xaldin came down after Saix, he had stopped laughing , although he was still wiping tears from his eyes.
" What happened?" Xemnas asked. Saix looked at him.
" You're friends are insane." He said simply. Xaldin walked over to Saix and pushed him into Xemnas. Xemnas threw his arms up and caught Saix in a hug that had Saix pressed against Xemnas' chest. Saix blushed before standing up.
" That's the thanks we get for helping you?" Xaldin asked looking disgusted. Saix whirled around..
" I asked that you didn't tell him, Xemnas and I went on a date not scar him for life." He snarled. Xemnas put an arm around Saix's shoulder and kissed his cheek.
" Aw." Axel and Demyx chorused. Xemnas rolled his eyes at them while Saix blushed again.
" Calm down." He said to Saix. "Now what did you guys do?" Xemnas asked Xaldin and Xigbar.
" Saix's friend sent one of his cronies up to us but we took care of him. Then he came up to us and asked if we we're bothering Saix. I said no." Xigbar said simply.
" That wasn't all. Then they acted like they were a couple." Saix hissed angrily, earning another kiss from Xemnas.
" What do you mean?" Xemnas asked gently.
" They were saying things like 'Xally-poo' and 'Xiggy'. And Xigbar had the gayest voice I ever heard." Saix said calmly while he ran a hand through Xemnas' hair.
" And that's why everyone thought you were a couple in our junior year." Xemnas said with a smirk. Xigbar shrugged.
" Stuff happens." He said simply. Xemnas nodded and walked over to the tree with Saix. They sat down together.
" You okay?" Xemnas asked gently. Saix nodded.
" It's just I thought Seifer might have actually found out." He murmured.
" Don't worry. We're going to keep him in the dark as long as we can." Xemnas said soothingly. Saix nodded and pulled his hand out of Xemnas' hair then grabbed Xemnas' jacket which lay folded up on one of the roots of the tree.
" Oh yeah, I almost forgot to give you your jacket." Saix said handing it to Xemnas.
" You didn't like it?" He asked with a frown.
" No, I liked a lot. It was warm and it made my room smell like you." Saix muttered with a blush. Xemnas smiled then yawned. " Are you still sleepy?" Saix asked looked concerned. Xemnas nodded.
" I usually sleep 'til noon." He explained and rested his head on Saix shoulder. " Stay like that, please. It feels nice." He said with a small smile. He used his jacket as a pillow and before long, had fallen asleep. Saix reached a hand up and combed through Xemnas' hair again. There were very little knots in it this time and Saix spent the time running his hands through it.
By noon, Xemnas had woken up and was leaning back against the tree. Saix was staring at him again, but Xemnas pretended not to notice as he stared out at the fountain where little kids were splashing in the water.
" Hey, Saix." Someone called. Saix, reluctantly, tore his gaze away from Xemnas to look in the direction of the voice. His eyes widened.
" Seifer." He whispered. Xemnas looked to where he was looking. Sure enough, Seifer was walking over to them. Xemnas looked around and realized the others were over by a hot dog stand. He cursed under his breath and stood up with Saix.
" Saix, what are you doing with that N?" Seifer asked.
" He's my friend." Saix said firmly as he stood up.
" What? I thought you said you wouldn't be friends with him anymore." Seifer said looking surprised.
" That was before I asked him out and he said yes." Saix said calmly. Seifer's eyes widened.
" You went out with this N? I bet he kissed you afterwards, right?" Seifer asked angrily.
" No, I kissed him. I did ask him out after all." Saix lied. Seifer scowled.
" So this is how it's going to be, Saix? You're choosing Fs and Ns over your oldest friend?" Seifer asked looked sad. Saix nodded and Seifer's blue-eyed gaze hardened.
" Well then, so be it." He said and snapped his fingers. A big kid lumbered up from Seifer's gang to stand next to him. " Pete, take him down." Seifer ordered. Pete launched forward and tried to punch Xemnas, but he dodged the punch and kicked Pete in the stomach. Pete doubled over in pain. Saix's eyes narrowed and he grabbed Pete by the collar and pulled him up so their eyes met.
" Don't you even dare to touch Xemnas ever again." He hissed. Pete's eyes widened in horror and when Saix released him, he ran away. Seifer scowled and Saix glared at him.
" This isn't over." Seifer said then left. It was Saix turn to scowl and he kicked the tree in anger. Xemnas watched Seifer and his gang walk off.
" Hey, Xemnas, what was that about?" Xigbar called as the group walked over.
" Seifer just found out Saix and I were dating." Xemnas said taking the hot dog Xigbar gave him. Axel gave Saix his hot dog but he didn't eat it.
" What did you say?" Saix asked, his eyes wide, as he looked at Xemnas.
" I'm sorry, I forgot. Do you want to go steady?" Xemnas asked him. Saix nodded and shoved his hot dog back in Axel's hand before wrapping his arms around Xemnas' neck and kissing him. Xemnas stumbled backward against the tree, nearly dropping his hot dog in the process and then wrapped his arms around Saix to return the kiss. Xigbar whistled when Saix opened his mouth and Xemnas slipped his tongue in. They came up for air, a couple minuets later and pulled apart. Saix's face was flushed and Xemnas' face felt warm.
" I thought you said we weren't going to make out in the park?" Saix asked slyly. Xemnas grinned.
" Well you effectively crushed that plan." He said causing Saix to blush again.
" Well, love birds, as romantic as this seems, it's getting hot out here. Can we go to the pool?" Larxene asked. Demyx jumped up.
" That's a great idea. Why don't we all go?" He suggested. Xigbar shook his head.
"Can't."He said simply.
" Why? You worried you'll get you're hair wet?" Xemnas asked with a smirk. Xigbar frowned at him.
" No, I have nothing to wear." He said. Xemnas shrugged.
" So go buy some." He said simply. " Or, if you're too poor, then you can borrow some of Norty's trunks." He said still smirking. Xigbar blushed then scowled.
" That was one time! Geez, you do something once and then you're branded for life." He muttered while Xaldin laughed. " Shut up, dread lock boy." Xigbar yelled at him. Xaldin narrowed his purple eyes.
" How many times do I have to tell you, they're braids?" He snarled before tackling Xigbar to the ground. They wrestled for a while until Xaldin pinned Xigbar down by sitting on his back.
" Hey, Xemnas, are you sure Xaldin isn't just bi?" Demyx whispered. Xemnas shrugged.
" He probably is." He answered. " Okay, you two, get up. We're going to my house then meeting up at the pool with the others." Xemnas announced.
" And no one is to go anywhere alone. Seifer knows I'm not his friend anymore so I can't promise nothing will happen to you." Saix warned. The others nodded.
" Don't worry Saix. One homophobe isn't going to scare us." Marluxia said with a laugh and he walked off with Larxene. Demyx grabbed Roxas and left with Axel. Zexion left with Lexeaus and Vexen while Xemnas went back to his house with Xigbar, Xaldin, and Saix.
Xehanort was at the house with his friends. They were playing on the PS3 and someone was losing badly.
" Ansem, come on, you can do better." Xemnas heard someone call. He frowned and headed upstairs. His brother's door was open but he didn't see his dad.
" Ansem, punch him." Braig said.
" Who's Ansem?" Xemnas asked. Xehanort raised his hand without taking his eyes off the screen. Xemnas smiled and laughed. " Hey, guys, get your asses up here." He called. Saix, Xigbar and Xaldin came up.
" What's up, Xemnas? Oh cool, is that a PS3?" Xigbar asked excitedly as he moved into the bedroom and sat beside Braig.
" Guess who they're calling Ansem?" Xemnas asked with a smirk.
" Who?" Xaldin asked when Xigbar didn't respond.
" Norty." Xemnas answered.
" Damn it, Xemnas, I told you to stop calling me that." Xehanort snarled.
" And obviously, I don't care." Xemnas retorted. He thought for a moment. " Norty, you have fifteen seconds to get the hell out of here." He said calmly. Xehanort looked up at him as his eyes widened in horror. He dropped the controller and darted out the room. Xigbar and Xaldin watched him go then looked expectantly at Xemnas.
"Can we get him?" Xigbar asked eagerly. Xemnas smiled.
" Yeah." He said. The two other boys darted out the room after Xehanort.
"Oh gods!" they all heard Xehanort shriek before the door slammed.
" What are they doing?" Saix asked looking confused.
" Taking Xehanort out on his weekly run." Xemnas explained calmly.
" His weekly run?" Saix asked as he raised an eyebrow. Xemnas nodded.
" Yep. He gets a run whenever he gets too big of a head. Back at my old neighborhood, we would chase Xehanort whenever he annoyed one of us." Xemnas explained before he headed to his room. Saix followed in silence.
" So I'm guessing they did this often."Saix commented as he looked around the room.
"Yep." Xemnas called from the closet. He came out with three pairs of swim trunks. Saix raised an eyebrow at this.
" the bigger ones are Xigbar and Xaldin's. They always leave a pair at my house just in case. Likewise, Norty and I have a pair at Xigbar and Xaldin's houses." Xemnas explained as he put the clothes down over a chair in front of his laptop. They heard the door close again and soon Xigbar and Xaldin came into the room. Xigbar collapsed on Xemnas' unmade bed.
" Phew, who knew Xehanort could run so fast? He got faster from the last time we chased him." Xigbar panted.
" No, you guys just got lazier." Xemnas said with a laugh. " So who caught him?" He asked. Xigbar pointed to Xaldin.
" I had to jump on him to stop him, too. He sat on the grass calling me a 'pervert' for a couple minutes until I got off of him. Have you been teaching him how to punch, again?" Xaldin asked with a frown. Xemnas nodded.
" It shows. I knew those girly punches couldn't have come from a real man." Xaldin said with a smirk. Xemnas glared at him.
"Just get dressed." He ordered. " Saix, are you going to change?" He asked the blue head. Saix shook his head.
" I was already planning to go to the pool anyway." He answered. Xemnas cocked his head to the side.
" Who were you going to go with?" He asked with a frown.
" Well, you, but when I called you didn't answer." Saix responded. Xemnas smiled and walked to the bathroom. Xigbar pushed Saix out and closed the door. 'Wait, they're changing together?' Saix frowned then shuddered. 'I don't even want to know.' He decided. He heard puffing behind him and saw Xehanort climb up the stairs with a glass of lemonade. The boy then walked back into his room after glaring at Xemnas' closed door. Saix didn't have to wait long for Xemnas to come out wearing his shirt and black swim trunks. Xaldin and Xigbar also came out. Xemnas didn't even spare them a second glance before he grabbed Saix's hand and they went down stairs.
Xemnas dumped his towel in a chair next to Zexion. The pale boy was reading a book and didn't look up at the intrusion.
" Hey, Zexy." Demyx called from the pool. Zexion lowered his book to look at the blond.
" What Demy-" He began only to be squirted in the face by a water gun. He wiped his face off with one hand.
"Die!" He snarled then dived after Demyx, who yelped and swam off. Xigbar laughed before jumping in with Xaldin right behind him. Xemnas smiled as he watched them swim after each other. He had noticed the pool was deserted except for their group. He pulled his shirt off and dropped it in the chair. He didn't notice Saix was staring at him again. The blue head's gold eyes took in every chiseled muscle on Xemnas' chest and stomach. Axel swam over to them and bashed Saix with a noodle. Saix turned on Axel with a snarl and ripped his shirt off before jumping on the red head, water safety be damned. Xemnas laughed before walking over to the diving board. He walked out onto the thin walkway and looked down. Saix was chasing Axel around where Larxene was playing volleyball with Marluxia, Luxord, Lexeaus, Vexen, and Roxas. Demyx had somehow lost Zexion only to be pulled under by the smaller boy. Xaldin and Xigbar were standing in the shallow end and gave him a thumbs up. Xemnas smiled down at them before jumping off and doing a cannonball into the pool. The splash from his landing soaked everyone and knocked Roxas over. again. Xemnas kicked off the bottom before surfacing with a laugh then swam over to Xigbar and Xaldin. Saix watched, feeling jealousy rising inside him.
" Chill, they're his friends." Axel said beside him. Saix frowned.
" I can't help it." He muttered angrily. " I don't want to be the jealous boyfriend, but seeing him with them makes me so angry."
"I understand how you feel." Axel said as he patted Saix on the back.
" How can you possibly understand?" Saix whirled around and didn't see Xemnas swim over to them. "You don't have a boyfriend who is still stared at by everyone in school. And they're not even staring for a good reason. If they were staring because they think he's hot then that wouldn't have a problem. You don't have a boyfriend who you're parents don't like. You don't have a boyfriend who can look utterly sexy with out meaning to. You don't have a boyfriend you have wet dreams about and wake up holding the jacket he gave you last night!" Saix snarled. Axel opened his mouth then shut it and dove under water. Saix looked at the spot where Axel was standing, looking confused. Until he felt Xemnas' arms wrap around him.
" I didn't know you felt that way, Saix." Xemnas whispered in his ear, causing shivers to run down his spine.
" Where did you come from?" Saix stammered.
" I was standing behind you when you started ranting to Axel." Xemnas explained.
" Oh." Saix said weakly.
" Now what's this about you thinking I'm sexy?" Xemnas asked. Saix blushed and Xemnas chuckled.
" I , I, I." Saix tried to speak but couldn't. Xemnas had no idea what he was doing to him. His close proximity was making Saix nervous, yet he couldn't understand why.
" Shhhh, and relax. Why are you so stiff?" Xemnas asked. Saix was sure he was smiling, but relaxed nonetheless. He leaned his head back on Xemnas' shoulder, rested his hands on Xemnas' hands and closed his eyes. He didn't know how long they stayed like this but it sure felt nice. " Saix, its time to get out." Xemnas whispered in his ear. Saix opened his eyes. Everyone else had already gotten out and were either sleeping, reading or socializing on land. Saix nodded and pulled away. Axel was grinning at him when he sat down beside him.
" You seemed to be enjoying yourself." He said mischievously. Saix rolled his eyes.
" We didn't do anything." He said with a scowl.
" Sure, you didn't." Demyx said with a smirk as he sat on the foot of Zexion's chair. Saix threw his towel at the blond who laughed and threw it back. But not before he received a smack from Zexion's book. Xemnas was talking with Xigbar and Xaldin about a basketball game the latter two had played with each other.
" Xemnas, you should have seen us. We beat those posers easily. They only got one shot but you know they wouldn't have if you'd been there." Xigbar said with a grin. Xemnas smiled.
" As flattering as that is, you know you would have needed both Xehanort and I to beat them." Xemnas said with a grin.
" Heads up, your boyfriend is glaring at us, again. You really need to talk to him about that, Xem." Xaldin said somehow knowing, without looking at Saix. Xemnas nodded and walked over to Saix then sat down to kiss him on the cheek.
" Hey, Saix, do you want to go for some ice cream with Xaldin, Xigbar and I?" Xemnas asked. Saix nodded.
" Besides, it will give us a chance to talk." Saix said.
" You don't mind having the other two there?" Xemnas asked looking surprised and Saix shook his head.
" Nope and besides, it's not like they know anyone besides, you and Xehanort, right?" Saix asked. Just then, Xigbar marched up to Zexion and Demyx and grabbed Demyx.
" Zexion, I saw what you did with my Dem-Dem. Don't do it again. He'll tell me if you do." He said angrily as he hugged Demyx to him. Xemnas shot Saix a look that said 'You sure about that?'
"Oh, Xiggy, you do care!" Demyx squealed. Xaldin stormed up and pushed Demyx back into the pool.
" Get away from him, whore!" Xaldin snapped. Xigbar looked surprised at Xaldin then jumped after Demyx.
" No one can keep us apart, my love!" Xigbar called before grabbing Demyx and swimming for the other edge of the pool. Xaldin smirked and grabbed Xemnas.
" Fine, you can have the shrimp, I'll take Xemnas." He called to Xigbar. Xigbar stopped and threw Demyx away, then rushed to the edge of the pool before climbing out.
" Bitch, he's mine!" Xigbar yelled as he narrowed his eye. He grabbed one of Xemnas' arms while Xaldin grabbed the other. They pulled him back and forth between the two of them. Xemnas pulled away from them both.
" Stop!" He shouted. " Neither of you can have me." He said and walked over to Saix who widened his eyes. " I belong to Saix." He declared setting his chin on Saix's shoulder while wrapping his arms around the bluenette's waist. Xigbar put a hand to his chest.
" You wound me. Why, Xemnas?" He asked sadly. Xaldin shrugged and grabbed Xigbar.
" More for me." He said with a smile.
" I knew you cared." Xigbar said happily. They stayed like that until Xemnas couldn't hold back his laughter and burst out laughing. Xigbar fell over and Xaldin fell into the pool. Axel stared at them with his mouth hanging open.
" Can you say, random?" Marluxia muttered. Larxene and Roxas nodded in agreement. Demyx sat down on Zexion's chair while drying his hair off.
" What the hell was that?" He asked.
" That, Demyx, is what happens when you smoke crack. So don't do drugs." Zexion said simply. Demyx nodded his head. Xemnas was the first of the trio to stop laughing.
" We don't do drugs, Zexion." Xemnas explained while wiping a tear from his eyes. " We just don't like it when everyone is silent for too long." Xigbar nodded and helped Xaldin out of the pool.
" You guys have no idea of fun or adventure. And that's why we're leaving you. Come on, Xemnas, and bring your boy toy with you." Xigbar said as he and Xaldin turned to leave. Xemnas nodded and grabbed his shirt and shoes before standing up. Saix followed him. Axel grabbed his arm to stop him for a minute.
" Good luck." He said. Saix gulped and nodded.
" Are you guys always so crazy?" Saix asked as they walked away. Xemnas nodded.
" We acted so crazy when we were together." He said with a grin.
" Yep, Xem, Xal and I, used to terrorize the school. No one messed with us." Xigbar said proudly.
" Speaking of school, how have you guys been managing with out me?" Xemnas asked. Xaldin frowned.
"It isn't the same. I'm mean, sure people don't mess with us but it isn't as fun without our third musketeer." He answered. Xemnas shrugged.
" You can thank my dad for that." He responded.
" What kind of ass takes his sons out of school in their last semester of their senior year?" Xigbar asked angrily. Xemnas shrugged.
" Xig, maybe for that stunt we pulled on old Mally?" Xaldin suggested.
" Old Mally, who's that?" Saix asked feeling a little left out.
" Old Mally is this woman who lived next door to me. Her real name is Maleficent but we've been calling her Mally since we were in diapers. She had the worst fashion sense imaginable. I mean, who wears green eyeshadow and horns? " Xemnas answered with a smile.
" We made it, finally!" Xigbar announced as they rushed inside the ice cream parlor which doesn't get a special name. They sat at a table with Xemnas and Saix on one side and Xigbar and Xaldin on the other.
" Do you want to share a milkshake?" Xemnas asked Saix, who nodded. Xemnas then reached up and fingered a strand of Saix's hair that was hanging near his ears. " You know you shouldn't stare at me like that when we're in public. People might actually think you like me." He said with a smirk.
" What if I do?" Saix retorted with a smirk of his own.
" Oh, then I'm flattered." Xemnas said and kissed him on the cheek.
" Why do you keep doing that?" Saix asked with a scowl. " Why don't you kiss me on the lips?" He asked.
" Because I plan on making out with you when I do that." Xemnas answered calmly making Saix blush. He scowled to cover the blush.
"Why does it seem like I'm the only one who ever blushes?" He muttered.
" Because you can't see when I blush." Xemnas answered simply. The waitress came over with their drinks. Saix hadn't even notice the woman take their orders. Xemnas frowned at her after she left.
" What's wrong?" Saix asked as he sipped from the chocolate milkshake.
" She was our waitress last night." Xemnas growled. Saix looked up and smirked.
" Now, you're jealous." He said and kissed Xemnas on the lips. Xemnas smiled and pulled away.
"Mmm, chocolate." He said.
Saix frowned and went back to drinking the milkshake. Xemnas took the other straw and drank after Saix was done. They spent the rest of the time there drinking and talking with Xigbar and Xaldin.
Afterwards, Xemnas and Saix left together. Xaldin and Xigbar were going to come by later, they said they had to do some thing, first. The house was deserted when Xemnas unlocked the door. A quick run upstairs showed Xehanort was gone. Saix sat on the couch while Xemnas walked through all the rooms. He appeared again in the kitchen doorway with a smile.
" The house is empty except for the two of us." He said as he walked toward Saix. Saix smiled, but when Xemnas held up a video, the smile vanished. Xemnas put the DVD in and sat down beside Saix. He leaned over the blue head to grab the remote, at least that's what Saix thought. He was surprised when Xemnas turned his head and kissed him on the lips. He relaxed and kissed him back. Xemnas' hands tangled themselves in Saix's hair while Saix hand's roved over Xemnas' body. When they broke apart for air, Saix pushed Xemnas on to the floor and straddled his waist. He then left a trail of soft kisses that started below Xemnas' ear and made their way to his neck. Xemnas arched his back when he felt Saix's cold fingers dance over his now exposed stomach.
" Saix, stop." He moaned.
" Why? I waited until we were alone just like you asked. What more do you want from me?" Saix whispered huskily in Xemnas' ear. Xemnas closed his eyes for a moment before he opened them with a smile. He suddenly bucked, making Saix pause for a second. The pause was all Xemnas needed to push Saix off him and climb back on top.
" That's better." He whispered into Saix's ear before kissing his earring. He kissed Saix again on the lips and this time slipped his tongue in. Their tongues met and battled while their hands explored each other again. By the time they broke away again, Saix's hands were resting on Xemnas' waist under his shirt while Xemnas' hands were on other either side of Saix's head keeping Xemnas from laying on the blue head.. Xemnas pressed his forehead to Saix's and looked in his gold eyes. They, both, were panting slightly and didn't hear the door open. But they did hear Xigbar loudly call upstairs.
" Lucy, we're home." Xemnas' head snapped up.
" Shit!" He muttered. " I forgot they were coming later." He tried to get up but found he couldn't. Saix wouldn't release him. " Saix, let go." He hissed. Saix shook his head and pulled Xemnas' head back down.
" Let them find out." He murmured. Xemnas had to admit that the blue head never looked sexier. Especially, the way he look at him with those gold eyes of his. He smiled and leaned forward to resume their battle. Xigbar walked in to the living room and paused. He turned to Xaldin with a smile. Xaldin smiled back and took out a cell phone. They took several pictures until Saix was bothered enough by the flashing to growl and turn his head away. Xemnas glared up at them.
" In case, you haven't noticed, we 're in the middle of something." He snarled.
"We know." Xigbar said with a grin.
" Will you guys just leave?" Xemnas asked with a sigh as he got off Saix. Saix frowned and stood up while adjusting his shirt which seemed to have risen up while they were making out.
" Sure, just one question?" Xaldin asked.
" What?" Saix asked as he ran a hand through his hair.
" Who's the uke?" Xigbar asked.
" Out!" Xemnas barked and they ran out. He turned to Saix. "I'm sorry about them, Saix." He said. Saix shook his head.
" Don't be, it's okay. I'm actually glad they interrupted when they did." Saix said with a small smile.
" Why? Would you still have wet dreams if they didn't?"
" How did you know?" "
"The pool, remember?"
" Oh yeah." Saix said with a blush that made Xemnas laugh before he hugged him.
" I better head home." Saix said after a while. Xemnas nodded and they pulled away after another kiss. Xemnas walked him to the door and paused on the front steps.
"See you, Monday." He said with a smile.
" See ya. Hope you have a fun visit at your old neighborhood." Saix answered with a sad smile.
" I hope so, too. We won't stay long, just do some visiting and then we'll come back. Make sure you stay safe too. You know Seifer won't protect you anymore." Xemnas reminded him. Saix nodded.
" I know but I didn't need Seifer's protection anyway. I certainly didn't need it against you." He said with a smirk. Xemnas grinned.
" Says you. I still won."
" In your dreams." Saix said with a laugh before leaving. Xemnas watched him go before closing and locking the door. Xigbar and Xaldin were now sitting on the couch
" Our little Xem-Xem's all grown up." Xigbar said with a snicker. Xaldin nodded, while he smiled. Xemnas rolled his eyes and flipped them the bird.
" There's the Xemnas we all know and love." Xaldin said cheerfully before he and Xigbar followed their friend into the kitchen. They popped popcorn then moved back to the living room to watch the movie Xemnas had 'forgotten' about. Ansem and Xehanort came home sometime later and they had dinner. Xigbar slept in Xehanort's room much to both boys' annoyance while Xaldin slept in Xemnas' room. No one shared a bed, the guests slept in sleeping bags they had brought with them.
" Night, Xal." Xemnas called before turning the light off.
" Night, and sweet dreams of Saix, Xem." Xaldin said with a chuckle.
" Well, I hope you have nice dreams of Xigbar." Xemnas retorted.
" I'm straight!" Xaldin demanded.
" Just keep telling yourself that." Xemnas said with a chuckle.

Seeing as the last chapter was shorter than the first one I decided to go all out. Hope you liked it. Just so you know, Xaldin and Xigbar aren't a couple, they're just friends. I think ;) I'm sure I was smoking something when I wrote this, or I decided that Axel and Demyx couldn't hog all the randomness. Either one works for me. So now Saix and Xemnas are a couple. I'm pretty sure they're moving too fast but oh well. My next update will be on 8/24 so keep a look out. And if you want to understand my reasoning behind this next part, then I suggest you go look a pic called 'I love your locks..' by Imagec0rrupt3d on deviantart.
Me: I think I'm going to have Saix say good bye this time.
Saix: Review, please. (winks)
Me: (drools) Oh the hotness.
Xemnas:(grabs Saix) Mine. (glares)
Me: Fine. (grumbles) meanie!
