The plane ride to Twilight Town seemed to drag on and on, but luckily for Sora he slept through most of it. Dreaming about seeing all of his friends again, and having the perfect life away from their old home. Seeing everyone's bright, happy faces again made it so Sora couldn't help but smile. However, his dreaming was brought to an abrupt halt when Sora was roughly shaken awake.
"H-Huh? Vanitas, what was that for? Just let me sleep." Sora was too tired to really yell at his brother.
"Oh I'm sorry, I just thought that you'd want me to wake you up when we got to Twilight Town." Vanitas smugly remarked.
"Yes I do. Now let me sleep until we get there." Sora replied, trying to go back to sleep.
"Man you really are dense sometimes. We are in Twilight Town you goof." Sora shot up out of his seat to see that the plane landed in an airport that was in fact, in Twilight Town.
"Oh my god! We're really here! We're really here!" Sora excitedly chanted as he jumped up and down in the plane.
"Calm down, calm down. Now Hikari left to go get all of our stuff and packed up her car. She's waiting for us outside, so I suggest we make it so we don't keep her waiting." Vanitas practically had to force Sora had to calm down as he led his younger brother off of the plane and through the gates to the inside of the airport. Sora was as giddy as a fan girl as he walked through the airport looking at all the new faces this town had to offer.
"Do you think he missed me? I wonder if he still remembers me! I hope he hasn't changed! Oh what if he forgot about me?"
"Sora! Calm down! Hikari told you herself that Riku's told her all about you. I'm sure he's missed you and I'm positive that he remembers…Sora…? What's wrong?" Vanitas looked to see Sora's eyes were wide in horror as he stared in the sea of people. Vanitas turned to see who Sora was looking at, and he then understood why Sora was scared. "Why is that bastard here?" It turns out that Seifer was on of the people that got off of the same flight they were just on.
"Well well well, the faggots are here too." Seifer practically shouted as he approached Sora and Vanitas. It was rare to see Seifer alone, but that only ment something bad was sure to happen. Sora quickly moved behind Vanitas and began to tremble in fear. Vanitas stood his ground. "So I see you two are moving here too. What a small world."
"Hmph, sounds more like you're stalking my little bro here."
"Haha! That's rich! It just so happens that this is my hometown. And you know what I'm feeling generous. If you two leave here right now, I won't beat you to a pulp."
"Funny, if I remember right, you lost our last fight Seifer." Vanitas gloated.
"Why you little brat!" Out of nowhere, Seifer sucker punched Vanitas, causing the teen to fall straight to the ground.
A guy who happened to be watching the back and forth between the two teens shouted, "FIGHT!" causing a huge group of people to gather up around the three teens. Vanitas showed no signs of moving as Sora tried desperately to get them away from Seifer.
"Hehe, these really did come in handy." Seifer gloated, showing off something shiny in his hand. Sora looked to see it was a pair of brass knuckles, and his fear doubled as he looked down to his unconscious brother to see a huge bruise starting to form right under his chin. "Get up fag, it's time to pay the piper." Sora was to scared to leave his brother so he stayed crouched down, holding his brother to his chest. "Fine, stay like that. It doesn't matter to me."
"That's enough!" A voice shouted above the crowd causing heads to turn, even Seifer.
"Hehe, well looky here fag, your fuck buddy is here to save you." Seifer chuckled. Sora looked up, still holding his brother, to see who Seifer was talking about, even though he had a good idea who it was. Sure enough, he was right.
"Riku." Sora said no louder than a whisper. It's true, Riku was there, Hikari was standing right behind him with a worried look on her face, Riku just looked pissed off seeing Sora like this after all this time.
"What do you think you're doing Seifer?" Riku asked, fighting every instinct to beat the teen to a pulp.
"I'm just defending my territory. I can't just sit back and have gay faggots like this brat here pollute the air that we normal people breathe. After I'm done with him, I'll deal with you."
"You mother-fucker!" Riku didn't give him time to react as he lunged toward Seifer with lightning speed, having an iron grip on Seifer's right hand, the hand where the brass knuckle was. "I'm going to count to three. If you don't drop the brass knuckles by then I'll break your fucking hand you got that? 1...2..." Riku whispered sinisterly to Seifer.
"Hehe, you don't have the guts you fucking fag-AHHHHH!" In one swift movement, Riku dislocated Seifer's wrist, causing the teen to double over in pain.
"Okay the show is over, get going, go on." Hikari said trying to get rid of onlookers as Riku made his way over to Sora and his brother, taking Seifer to the medical ward even though he didn't really deserve it.
"Hey Sora, you okay?" Riku asked as he leaned down toward the still shaking teen. "Hey, I'm sorry I didn't get here sooner, I just-" Riku was cut off with Sora crashing their lips together in a much needed kiss. Tears fell from Sora's cheeks as Riku returned the kiss, gently massaging the younger teen's back. When they broke apart Sora buried his face into Riku's chest, tears refusing to stop falling.
"I-I mi-missed you s-so much!" Sora managed to choke out, squeezing Riku tighter with each word spoken.
"I missed you too Sora. I'm sorry I wasn't here earlier, I just got here. Tell you what, we'll catch up when we reach my place. It looks like Vanitas needs some help." By this time, Hikari made it back and was trying to lift the, still unconscious, Vanitas to his feet and took him toward the parking lot. "Everyone's waiting." Sora wiped his eyes clear of tears and nodded, following Riku out to the parking lot.
Sora's jaw dropped when he saw what car Riku was walking toward. It was a brand new black Hummer with all of the windows tinted. "This…is…HUGE!" Sora exclaimed.
"Thanks, just got it. Hop in." Riku coaxed patting the passenger seat, Hikari helping herself into the back seat with Vanitas trying to fix up his face. Sora nodded and hopped in, mesmerized by how much room there was and the fact that it was Riku's. "You like it?" Riku asked.
"Like it? I love it! This is amazing!"
"Hehe, I'm glad you like it. Now buckle up and we can get going." Sora and Hikari nodded, buckling up. But before Hikari could get Vanitas fastened safely into his seatbelt, unable to do it himself because he was still unconscious, Riku took off, sending the teen right into Hikari's lap, frightening the poor girl. "Hehe, hey Sora check it out. I think your brother has a new fling."
Sora's face turned bright red seeing his older twin brother's head face down in a girl's lap. But his face wasn't nearly as red as poor Hikari's, she looked like she was about to explode. "Don't just sit there! Get him off of me!" The girl practically screamed, trying to get Vanitas to sit back upright. But thanks to all of the turns Riku just had to take, that made it impossible, causing the girl to blush even more. Without another seconds delay, they finally made it to Riku's house in one piece.
"Well we're here!" Riku said cheerfully. Sora stared up and saw that the place was, it had to be at least 3 stories tall. The outside showed that almost half of the walls were covered in windows, but the blinds were closed so he couldn't see anything on the inside. The house was painted a nice shade of red, with a white doorway, with two balconies on the two walls that faced the street. "Come on, let's go inside."
Riku helped Sora out of the passenger seat as Hikari struggled to get Vanitas off of her, but luckily for her he was starting to wake up, so it made the ordeal easier for both of them. Sora and Riku walked into the house first, hand-in-hand, Sora eagerly waiting to see what the inside looked like. As Riku turned the lights on, Sora's mind seemed to expand as he saw the room light up. The living room was huge, it looked more like the lobby of a five star hotel, with a huge flat screen T.V. resting above a fire place that was in front of a huge "U" shaped couch. There were two sets of stairs that led to two different floors, each floor leading to 5 different rooms, supposedly all being bedrooms with different designs in each from what Sora could see. There was a master kitchen with a full stocked fridge with all of the latest appliances stocked up. Sora was in awe, he didn't even notice all of his friends standing in front of him.
"Welcome Home Sora!" They all shouted in unison, scaring the poor teen.
"Guys! You're all here!" Sora dashed toward his friends giving them all a big group hug, tear of joy escaping his eyes, Hikari and Vanitas managing to sneak in in time to join in the group hug. "I can't believe it you're all here!"
"Look at you, you haven't changed a bit." Axel remarked, giving Sora a noogie.
"Hey, leave my cousin alone," Roxas responded. "I need in him one piece to tell him what he missed."
"Yeah, and Riku would kill you if anything happened to his little 'So-So'," Terra teased, causing Sora and Riku to blush.
"Sora, it's great to see you again." Namine said giving him a hug, and was joined by Xion. "How was graduation?"
Sora and Vanitas just looked at each other, "It's a day I'll definitely never forget." Sora replied.
"Hey I thought you said that Kairi was here too." Vanitas questioned.
"She is, but she had too much to drink last night and is spending the after effects of her hangover in her room." Xion answered, pointing to one of the second story rooms.
"Wait, Kairi lives here?" Sora asked confused.
"Yep we all do." Ven answered, leaving Sora in shock. "Terra and I live in the third room on a second floor." Terra threw an arm around his boyfriend as a sign of accomplishment.
"Me and little Roxy here live in the first room on the third floor." Axel continued. "Demyx and Zexion are right next door to us." Sora's jaw practically fell out of it's socket at the statement.
"Yes sweetie, Demyx and Zexion live here too." Riku kissed to top of Sora's forehead. "I'll explain later."
"Me and Xion share a room right next to Kairi's. She insisting that she'd have her own room." Namine finished.
"Wait a second! Do you live here too?" Sora all but screamed toward Hikari, causing everyone in the room to burst out laughing. "What's so funny!"
"Hehe, silly Sora. Of course Hikari lives here, it's her house." Riku answered, leaving Sora even more confused.
"So wait, you all live here? In the same house…Each of you having your own room, but you practically share it with someone with the exclusion of Kairi…and this house is owned by Hikari…" everyone in the room nodded. "So…does that mean me and Vanitas can live here too?"
"Hehe, of course you can Sora. Riku would kill me if I don't allow you to live with him." Hikari answered.
"Maybe he'll finally shut up for onc-OW!" Axel was cut off with Roxas jabbing him in the stomach with his elbow.
"Why don't I show you guys to your rooms and you all can catch up." Sora and Vanitas nodded, following Hikari up the first flight of stairs, leading to the third floor. "Okay now Vanitas this is going to be your room." Hikari opened the door to show a pitch black room, barely showing anything at all. From what Sora could tell, there was a king-sized bed, black sheets, black pillows, black everything. There was an office desk sitting at one end of the room, laptop and desk lamp installed and ready to go with every single office equipment known to man available, from pencils to a working printer. On the other side of rested a full scale punching bag and weight lifting set at the ready. There was also a jumbo sized stereo system with all the latest hit singles stocked in it.
"Feel free to make as much noise as you want Vanitas, this room, along with all the other ones are sound proof." Hikari explained.
"Hehe, so I could be having a party in here and you wouldn't know." Vanitas joked.
"It's all up to you. Even though this technically is my house, I don't like to boss people around. As long as there is still a roof over our heads, you can do whatever you want."
"Good to know."
"Okay Sora, ready to see your room?"
"Wait, you mean, I'm not sharing Vanitas'?"
"Hehe, of course not. Come on I'll show you your room." Hikari lead Sora down the stairs to the ground floor, where all of his friends were still hanging out and goofing off. She lead Sora to the back of the house, where two rooms were hidden. "Now, no one's allowed back here, so feel special. This is my room," Hikari pointed to a door that rested to the left. "Don't go in there under any circumstance. And this here is your room." Hikari opened the door that rested on the right, revealing a beautiful master bedroom. There was a king-sized bed sitting in the middle of the room, multiple pillows rested at the head of bed with floral bedding sitting underneath them. A wardrobe and dresser laid on the far right of the room, fully stalked with Sora's clothes, with a wall mirror resting on the wall right next to it.
"This is really my room?" Sora asked excitedly.
"Well kinda."
"What do you mean?"
"You're going to have to share it with someone…come on in." Hikari let someone into the room, surprising Sora, even though it should be obvious who it was.
"Come on Sora. You really think after all that time I'm going to make you sleep alone for another second." Riku smirked as he entered the room.
"Of course not!" Sora ran over and pretty much tackle glomped Riku. Hikari, feeling like a third wheel decided to leave.
"Just remember you guys, these rooms are sound proof." She chuckled as she closed the door behind her, leaving the two boys alone and blushing.
