After school, Roxas went straight to his new family's house. Sora and his friends were still on the beach, fooling around, beating the crap out of each other with sticks and jump ropes and blitzballs. Roxas had left them when they had gotten off the GUMMI ferry. He entered his new home feeling like he was trespassing. He silently went upstairs to the old study that his father had turned into his room. He shoved half unpacked boxes out of his way with his foot as he went to go sit on his bed. His half siblings had gone through his stuff, claiming they were 'helping' him unpack. He pulled out his homework, giving him a reason for being unsocial if Sora came around. He knew Sora wouldn't mind, it was probably already awkward enough having your half brother, who could practically be your twin, living with you, never mind trying to make him feel comfortable because your father expects you to get along. Roxas supposed that was the reason for Sora trying. If their father thought Roxas would actually be grateful to be taken away from all that he knew, he probably thought Sora and Roxas would get along like best friends.

Roxas leaned back, sitting cross legged on his bed, his back against the wall. The sun cast an orange hue across the room, reminding Roxas of his real home, in Twilight Town. He had left his grandparents and his friends there. Hayner was probably pissed at him for not calling him; he had made Roxas promise before he left, but Roxas wasn't going to go downstairs and ask his wife to use the phone.

--hours later--

Roxas had finished his homework and was placing the last of his boxes neatly against the wall when Sora bounded into his room and practically jumped on him. Catching Roxas in a chokehold, Sora grinned wildly as Roxas flailed his arms around.

"Come on, Come on! Demyx and Larxyne are back and they brought food!!" Sora shouted, dragging the off-balanced Roxas through the doorway and down the hall. He released Roxas from the chokehold when they got to the stairs, then grabbed his wrist tightly as he ran down them. Roxas nearly tripped down the stairs twice but managed to keep himself from falling on his face. Sora dragged Roxas to the kitchen, where a neat and respectable looking Demyx (somehow he managed, even with the mullet) stood with bags of Chinese takeout on the white marble counter tops. Roxas could hear their motherarguing with Larxyne in the next room.

"I was going to cook tonight! Takeout isn't even a good excuse for a meal!" said their mother in an almost disappointed, yet angry tone.

"Yes it is, and its The Land of the Dragons Takeout. Chien Po's sweet and sour shrimp is to die for." XD

Their mother hesitated. "Did you get some for me?"

"Of course, mother."

Roxas fidgeted uncomfortably between Demyx and Sora as Larxyne and their mother entered the kitchen. She was a large, imposing woman, with dark hair and cruel eyes. When shesaw Roxas, she looked at him with distaste. Larxyne, who was wearing a business suit that accentuated the curves of her petite frame, walked over to the counter and began to dish out Chinese food on to plates with great speed and efficiency.

A slam from the front door indicated that their father had finally arrived home from work. A cheery man, with blond hair that he obviously passed down to his children, entered the kitchen in a flurry and grabbed his wifearound the waist. He was laughing in good humor, and after a long drawn out greeting to his wife, he let her go and grabbed Demyx around the shoulders.

"Takeout?" he asked, truly amused, a slight accent (British) haunting his voice as he stroked his goatee. Everybody save Roxas smiled, the enmity and awkwardness of the situation before forgotten by the family.

"I could have sworn your mother said she was going to cook. You know Larxyne, her cooking really isn't all that bad…" He said, eyes laughing.

"I'm not really all that interested in fried peppers, onions, and tomatoes with grilled sausage. You know that's what she was going to make, that's always what she makes." Replied Larxyne, passing out the plates of Chinese.

"I most certainly do not!" their mother cried. Demyx and his father laughed.

"Stop that Luxord!" SHE swatted at the both of them. They attempted to dodge, and Luxord caught the slap she threw. He kissed her hand, and she blushed. Roxas, who had been standing amid the happy family awkwardly, put on a face of absolute disgust that matched Sora's, who was standing next to him quietly gagging. The effect was rather hilarious, and Demyx, who had been freed from his fathers grasp, laughed quite loudly. Luxord, who saw the undeniable resemblance between the two, laughed along with him and their mother once again looked a bit miffed.

Luckily enough for Roxas, the presence of Luxord allowed him to eat with out much worry of poisoning or a death stare from the other end of the table. He ate in silence, only stopping to nod politely when asked a question or to take a sip of his drink. He finished at the same time as Sora, to their mother's dismay, and he sat at the table while the rest of them laughed and did family stuff. Roxas excused himself as soon as possible, and went directly upstairs to his room afterwards. He heard Sora load the dishwasher and Larxyne complain loudly about work. He shut his door and went over to his window, which he opened and practically hung himself out of. The view of the beach was amazing. Moonlight danced upon the water as a warm breeze blew Roxas' hair into his face. He shook his hair out of his eyes, and looked over the ocean as the gentle rushing of the waves lulled him nearly to sleep. The paopu trees swayed to the music of the sea and added their own contribution to the rhythm. Roxas was nodding off, head on the windowsill, when the front door opened. He was shocked from his nap and a little bit embarrassed from falling asleep while hanging out of a window, and he pulled his head back inside. The wide porch hid both him and who ever was coming out from view, but he could see the light from the foyer on the walkway in the front. He heard voices.

"You two better make sure that Sora gets his homework done, and doesn't eat all that candy he has underneath his bed. Even better, stop giving it to him." Their mother said.

"We'll be back later; so don't you dare play that thing Demyx. If we come home to find the police outside our house again, I will ground you."

"Don't bet everything you guys, I like our house."

"Haha."

Roxas heard the door close and a sound from the window over. He peeked out the window to look and didn't see anything. Footsteps sounded on the wooden porch steps, and he ducked back into his room as they walked to their car.

"Luxord, I really don't like the idea of that boy being here. Who knows how he was raised. He'll teach Sora a whole manner of things."

"Honey, he was raised by his god fearing grandparents. His grandfather is a prestigious magic researcher in Traverse Towns 3rd District. You know old Merlin…"

"That's so close by! And near Larxyne! Isn't Merlin already going mad?"

"He was a little eccentric, and I know the plant is in the 3rd district, but that's a place they don't just allow children to enter, and Merlin's been warned about trying to take him back."

Roxas rolled his eyes. He had been warned about running away and going back home, too. His lawyer said it could land old Merlin in jail.

"But why do we even have to have him here?! He could have lived in Twilight Town his entire life and we could have been a normal family!"

"He is still my son, and a child should live with their parents. I would have felt so much guilt knowing my other son was living in some apartment in a slum while I was living the grand life."

Roxas shook his head. Twilight Town really didn't have slums.

"You are his only parent here." His wife snarled at him.

It went silent. Roxas felt the tension on the second floor. He dared not to move, any sound he would make would be amplified a thousand times in this sort of situation. He heard movement and a hushed, comforting voice.

"I made a bad call. It was a stupid move, one I thought was inconsequential at the time, and now I am living with my mistake."

'Literally.' Roxas thought to himself.

"But you are my only love. I came back to you in remorse because you and the kids were the only things that mattered to me. You are my one and only Queen of Hearts."

Roxas heard the car door slam and the engine as it drove down the street. He got up from where he had sat with his back against the wall and slammed the window shut. What the pissed off Roxas didn't notice was a sad little Sora sliding the other window shut too.
