Yeah here comes the angst and lemony goodness. Enjoy!

Chapter Three; Party Time.

Warm lips traced over heated skin, sucking and nipping and leaving a trail of soft butterfly kisses along the younger teens collarbone.

The brunette let out a needy gasp, much to Riku's delight, and soon enough their tongues were tied messily in a heated kiss as they rocked together.

The silver-haired teen ran a slender hand over the slight muscles of the bare frame before him, pausing at the hem of the teens boxers.

Hungry aquamarine eyes met lust clouded cerulean orbs in agreement. That one look at the flustered brunette; hair mussed and cheeks dusted pink was all he needed. Messily untying the knot he inched down the garment to reveal an aching arousal.

His heart thrumming heavily in his ears and his own hardness now painfully increased; Riku bent down to give a tentative lick, thoroughly enjoying the throaty moan which escaped the brunette. After a moment of ministrations with Sora's need, Riku removed his own clothing and returned to the brunette, gently forcing his slim legs up and apart and placing himself in between.

The older teen wet two fingers with his own saliva before leaning down to connect himself again to Sora with a passionate kiss. Satisfied he was somewhat distracted by the kiss Riku placed one slick digit at the youngers entrance, receiving a startled jump which in turn increased the friction between them.

Swallowing a bout of lust, Riku slipped the digit past the tight ring of muscle and wriggled it around a bit; much to the dislike of Sora, who had a look of unease across his features.

After a moment of adjusting on the brunette's behalf; Riku pushed the slick digit in further, then back out slowly and back in, gaining a rhythm and slowly stretching the boy.

Riku added another digit to join the first, increasing the speed of the thrusting a little and scissoring his fingers. For Sora the discomfort was beginning to melt away and was being replaced by pleasure, a tension growing in his groin.

Not wanting Sora to be spent so easily the older teen slipped his finger's from the boy and began positioning himself, placing one hand on the the brunettes hip and the other by his mussed head.

Riku slowly pushed his aching length into the teen, relishing in the tight heat around himself.

After another few moments of adjusting Riku kissed his koi and began to move, slowly pulling himself out and pushing back in with increasing speed and hardness.

Sora's pleas changed, indicating the increasing pleasure on his behalf. The sight of Sora below him made Riku more excited than he'd like to let on; his eyes lidded shut with thick lashes, cheeks flushed and mouth slightly open and panting, emitting such delicious sounds.

Oh how long he had wanted this.

" Nnn..R..Riku.."

" Harder.."

Brought out of his thoughts by the cry Riku immediately obliged, rocking his hips harder into the brunette and brushing that spot inside of him which they both loved so much.

The silver-haired teen connected them once more with a sloppy kiss, eating up those delicious sounds that fell off his lips. Riku felt a growing pressure in his abdomen and snaked a hand down to meet Sora's neglected member, pumping along with the thrusting of his hips and receiving a strangled cry.

" AH!. Ri... Riku! "

BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP!!

Riku woke with a startled jump and immediately stretched over and silenced the loud alarm by his bed.

The teen rubbed his aquamarine eyes open in annoyance, slowly adjusting to the bright morning haze around him.

He propped himself up on his elbows and ripped the soft sheets from his body; Judging by the dull ache between his legs and the warm sticky fluid covering his boxers and thighs he had certainly enjoyed said dream about a certain brunette.

Riku silently cursed the alarm, then himself for setting it before realizing just why he had it. He had work.

On Saturday of all days, just brilliant.

Stretching his un-used muscles Riku lifted himself up from the silky bed and padded uncomfortably across the carpet to his en suite bathroom, making sure not to drip on the expensive floor covering. Entering the tiled bathroom the teen turned on the hot water, stripping himself of the uncomfortable garment and stepping into the large shower.

Riku relished in the warm water that washed over his tired muscles and through his long silver locks. Spotting a bar of lavender soap he began washing himself clean, rinsing off the suds and making sure to use his signature hair shampoo and conditioner that smelled of a variety mixed fruits- Tropical Breeze or something.

The teens mind soon wondered to Sora, and how 'those' dreams about him; As enjoyable as they were, seemed to have increased a heck of a lot lately. Must be the hormones.

Stepping out of the water Riku dried himself off with a fluffy white towel and began to dress; Donning a pair of tight black jeans and an equally tight ebony shirt which showed his well built physique off nicely without making him look as though he was trying too hard. No he just looked down right sexy; Sexy being something that seemed to radiate from the teen pretty much twenty-four seven.

Leaning over the mirror he slicked a line of sparkly black eyeliner under his illuminant eyes and ran a lick of mascara along his thick lashes. After brushing his teeth, smoothing a hand through his long silver locks and spraying on a hint of his musky perfume, Riku declared himself ready and headed downstairs.

Striding past the large empty kitchen he slipped on a pair of black boots and grabbed his keys, the clack of said boots and keys jingling the only sound resonating through the still house; But it didn't faze him one bit. Riku much preferred the house empty apart from himself anyway, less pressure from the parental's and more time to do as he pleased.

The silver-haired teen stepped out in to the sunny morning around him; The air was crisp and cool on his bare skin and the sky clear and vivid. The sound of the waves crashing gently in the distance and birds fluttering about his soundtrack; Another perfect day on Destiny Island.

Feeling somewhat refreshed Riku unlocked his fancy B.M.W with a beep and headed to the large open driveway were it lay, sparkling in the morning sunlight in all its glory.

Slipping down onto the crisp leather seat the teen jingled his keys in the ignition and the engine soon sprang to life with a rumble.

Riku worked in a popular and rather eccentric coffee shop down in the heart of Destiny Island; The coffee was great and it paid quite well.

By eccentric I mean the coffee shop was well-known for it's largely gay customer base and staff. Riku for one, believed his parents would have a fit if they knew he was working there- Having a gay son wouldn't exactly fit into their perfectly planned normal and happy ever after lifestyle.

But Riku didn't work there plainly because of his sexuality, no it was really for the pay and the atmosphere.

He didn't mind too much that guys came from near and far just to be served by him, or that he was blatantly hit-on on a daily basis. The tips were great.

The thing about his job which Riku down right disliked was his new boss Xemnas; A pig-headed and creepy guy that had come to be in charge when the business was handed over.

The point being the man quite obviously wanted in Riku's pants.
Xemnas tried to hint his intentions at the teen all the time, like what he could give him. Quite frankly he sent a shiver down Riku's spine.

A short drive after Riku pulled up outside the small coffee shop. Cutting the rumbling engine he slipped out and locked the car, stuffing the keys into his back pocket he headed towards the shop.

It didn't look all that eccentric from the outside, metallic tables adorned with matching chairs shaded by umbrella's scattered the footpath, and a sign with today's specials put out earlier signaled it was open. Pushing open the door with a jingle Riku was hit with that delicious smell of exotic and rich percolated coffee, another perk of his job.

Warm morning sunlight and a violet glow from the wall lamps lit the shop, the walls tinted a dark purple colour donned countless colourful posters. A counter and glass cabinet with food to his right and metallic tables and chairs to his left, booths lined the sides and down the back was a section with couches and bookshelves and a glass coffee table in the middle. The song Violet Sauce by Namie Amuro resonated around the room, only adding to the whole 'purple' theme going on. The shop had quite a vibe; Probably another reason why it was so popular.

The room was empty from customers apart from two girls seated at a booth to his left immersed in deep conversation and a fellow work and school colleague on a couch down the back; Silver hair flowing over one eye Zexion glanced up from his book, eyebrows furrowed and that sharp look across his fine features.

The icey teen turned back to his book without a greeting but Riku chose to ignore it, that's just how Zexion was; The quiet type that seemingly judged everyone and everything around him as though he was some sort of higher life form. If Riku got any other feeling from the teen it was that he was rather manipulative.

Riku slipped behind the counter and pulled out a dark purple apron from under the bench, slipping it on slender fingers tied a bow.

The silver-haired teen was brewing another round of coffee when he glanced Xemnas emerging from the back room, a predatory glint sparking in his golden eyes and a smirk playing across his lips when he saw Riku; Stalking up to him and leaning on the counter, trying and failing to be sexy.

" Goodmorning Riku. " He uttered in that distastefully deep tone.

" Morning." The teen retorted back, not in the mood for convo with the sleazy man.

Xemnas glanced at the silver Rolex wrapped around his wrist before turning back to the teen who was obviously trying to ignore him.

" You're early. "

Riku raised a slender eyebrow and glanced up to the wall clock. 8.55. Indeed he was all of five minutes early.

Turning his back to the silver-haired man he began busying himself with something else whilst giving the coldest shoulder he could muster.

Xemnas just smirked at his actions before pressing up uncomfortably close behind the teen who froze instantly. The man lent in close to Riku's ear, muttering as sexily as he could.

" We could.."

Riku furrowed his eyebrows, a shiver from running down his spine as an unwanted hand snaked down into his back pocket and jingled with his keys.

" Go somewhere.." Xemnas whispered suggestively, making sure to breathe on Riku as he did so.

Riku was about to turn and push past the man when a customer entered the shop. Interrupted, Xemnas removed his hand with a smirk and strode out to the back room, disappearing behind the jingling shades.

The silver-haired teen swallowed his anger and turned to the counter and the girl who stood in front of it, momentarily glancing to Zexion who hadn't even bothered to move. Riku turned his attention to the customer.

" What would you like? "


Riku was somewhat exhausted as he gracefully maneuvered through the now buzzing coffee shop to deliver two latte's to a couple. Receiving a handsome tip from one of the guys and returning to the counter he began cleaning up the mess of frothed milk Zexion had left all over the bench before knocking off.

Aquamarine orbs glanced up to the nearby wall clock; 1:50.

Thankfully there was only ten minutes until his shift was over, it had been a long one for the overtime pay, and as easy as the job was he'd be glad when it was over. Partially because running around making and delivering orders could get quite tyring but mostly because after he'd be meeting with a certain brunette boy.

Riku found his gaze wondering over to the entrance of the shop, hoping any minute Sora would poke his spiky little head around the door; That sunny grin plastered across his features.The younger teen was meeting him there and they were then going onto the shops to get some stuff for the party; Sora seemed rather excited about the whole thing.

But he didn't mind. If Sora was happy, then Riku was happy.

Those last ten minutes flew by fairly quickly in the busy shop and soon enough it was time to knock off; His place taken by another guy, Riku slipped off his apron and shuffled out of the crowded shop.

The afternoon light was bright outside, quite a contrast to the dimly lit shop and Riku had to blink the dark splodges out of his eyes to adjust. The air was fresh and salty, a slight breeze welcomed by everyone as the summer days had started to become sticky and humid.

Riku turned and was greeted by a much needed site; Sora jogging towards him from down the footpath, that same sunny grin across his features and cinnamon spikes bobbing up and down as he moved. The brunette put out a hand to wave and call when that clumsyness of his took a hold and he tripped on the metal leg of a chair and stumbled.

" Hey Ri..woahh! "

Riku's sharp reflexes took a hold and he jumped to catch him, Sora stumbled into his arms with a soft 'oooph' sound. The brunette shook his choppy spikes cutely and grinned up at Riku, a soft blush dusting his cheeks out of embarrassment.

" Hey Riku! " He chirped happily.

The silver-haired teen raised a slender brow in amusement at the clumsy teen. " Real smooth Sora. "

Said teen pouted and got up, mock bushing the dust off himself and cursing his clumsyness. " Shaddup."

Ruffling the pouting brunette's spikes to tease, Riku headed across the road to his car, Sora in tow.

" So, where do you want to go first? "

" Oh, um, whatta bout the video store?... And then food shopping! "

The two teens slipped into the black B.M.W, Riku staring the rumbling engine and Sora fidgeting excitedly.

" Sure, why not."

The next two and a half hours pretty much consisted of Sora happily dragging his older friend around the shops. They got out a bunch of games, Super Smash Bros Melee,Tekken 5, Soul Calibur, youno the type, and of course some good ol' slasher movies.

Then it was onto the food stores, where they stocked up on all sorts of un-nutritious junk, Sora still excited and pointing out at nearly everything in the shop, as a result the bill was quite hefty and a shop assistant was frightened beyond repair in the process. ( A.N that one goes out to Wrath-san XD)

After that exciting escapade Riku was conned into buying the brunette an ice cream for the trip home, how could he say no?

But then again it's not like Sora needed anymore sugar in his currently over-excited state.

It was late afternoon and around 4:30-ish by the time the two pulled up at Riku's beach side mansion. Carting their great haul into the kitchen they set up the food and drinks; That is emptied the chip packets into some bowls and put some cups by the bottles of drink. Nice and simple. The way parties should be.

Riku finished up putting the other shopping away in the kitchen and found the brunette sitting cross-legged on a large leather couch in the lounge room; Rummaging through the bag of movies and games.

" Hey So I'm gonna grab a shower k, could you set up the Nintendo? "

Sora nodded happily and jumped down from his place on the couch to the carpet in front of the plasma where the console lay. The silver-haired teen stood there for a moment, his gaze falling to the small of Sora's back where the smooth, tanned skin was exposed as he crouched over the Gamecube; Busy untangling the many controllers.

Shaking off the thoughts which were making their way into his mind the older teen headed upstairs to freshen up, returning not long after to find Sora in the middle of a tournament battle on Melee.

The brunette turned to greet his friend, feeling his face heat up and his heart start thrumming upon seeing the teen. Riku stood at the entrance to the room, leaning unintentionally sexily against the door frame. Long silver hair flowing over his shoulders where a fitted, long-sleeved ebony shirt clung to his figure and a pair of tight, dark blue jeans held up by a studded belt hung dangerously low off his hips; exposing quite a bit of his abdomen and only leading to one's imagination.

His intense aquamarine eyes increased by more eye makeup flickered to Sora after glancing around the room, the teen raised an eyebrow at the youngers dopey expression.

" Didn't think perving was your thing So." He joked.

Sora went beet red and shook his head in embarrassment, his cerulean eyes glancing over his own ' less than sexy ' clothes; A yellow and black T and plain black board shorts. The brunette tried to chuckle off the situation and resorted to making a face at the older.

" You wish Riku. "

Sora was saved by a knock at the front door, with a smile and a shake of his head Riku padded out of sight to the open hallway, Sora scrambling after him. The large double white doors were opened with a soft 'woosh' of afternoon air to reveal a smiling redhead and blonde in it's wake.

" Hey Kairi Hey Namine! " Sora chirped happily from behind Riku.

The silver-haired teen ushered the two girls in, Kairi bounding happily into the lounge with Sora and Namine chatting shyly with Riku.

" Alright who dares to challenge me, undenied king of Melee! " The brunette joked, lacing his arms behind his head and grinning stupidly. Riku just snorted at him and chucked a nearby pillow, hitting him squarely on the head and receiving a pout.

" You wont be so cocky when I beat your ass with Zelda will you now Sora. " The redheaded girl announced before jumping down onto the carpet and joining her old friend in front of the Gamecube.

" Oh it's on Kai."

Selecting the verse mode, Sora choosing Link and Kairi Zelda; the battle begun in Hyrule. The battle didn't last too long, Sora's practice paid off well and he got Kairi down to one life pretty quickly.

" I smell high damage! " He declared, heading after Zelda and dodging her attack to knock her off with a smash attack, and with that the game was won. Sora let out a cry of victory and mimicked Link's hair flick with a cheesy grin across his face.

" Not so good are we now Kairi."

" Hah it's not like I practice or anything."

Riku got up from the couch, ruffling Sora's spikes and taking the controller from Kairi who took his place on the leather sofa. He took a seat on the carpet next to the brunette, both putting on their game faces.

" Prepare to be annihilated Ri. "

Riku cocked an eyebrow at the boy. " Big words for such a little guy."

Their game was interrupted by another loud knock at the door and Sora bounded up to greet who ever it was. Leaving Riku and Kairi wondering just how much sugar the boy had actually consumed.

An over exclaimed " Hey Yuffie! " was heard and a moment later the girl entered the room, juggling a container of food and some Dr Pepper. Greetings were exchanged and the group once again got seated, Riku and Sora immersed in a battle and Yuffie shouting at them from the couch, picking out their every flaw.

Yuffie being one that obsessively played the game and believed strongly that boys thinking she couldn't play just because she was a girl was downright sexist, most guys didn't last two minutes in a battle with her.

About twenty minutes later Tidus and Wakka arrived, fresh from the beach and looking as tanned as ever. A tournament battle was started between Sora,Namine,Yuffie,Tidus and Wakka; Riku hanging in the kitchen with Kairi and preparing some more food for the five, both slightly amazed at how fast they downed three packets of chips and a bottle of mountain dew.

It was after sundown by the time Roxas arrived, slightly puffed as he'd walked to the teens house. Sora greeted his twin at the front door, Roxas was happy to see everyone but a little distant; like he always was. Obviously meeting Axel tonight was playing on his mind.

Sora dragged his twin into the large empty kitchen and cornered him against the counter. His identical cerulean eyes now serious, he stared into his brothers.

" Your gonna talk to Ax tonight right? "

Roxas furrowed his slender brows and glanced away.

" Haven't we already talked about this? Yes I'm gonna talk to him, if he even shows. "

" He's going to show." Sora assured. " He's been trying to freaking get in contact with you since Thursday! You've been the one blowing him off ."

The blonde glared at his twin; earning a cocked eyebrow.

" Don't glare at me Roxas. You know it's true."

Laughter resonated from the lounge and what sounded like a heated discussion between Yuffie and Wakka as to what slasher movie they would watch.

Sora brought his brother's attention back to him, looking deep into those identical, distant cerulean eyes. He spoke firmly, showing Roxas a side of his twin he only saw occasionally.

" Don't shut him out Roxas, he'll make you happy."

Earning another half-hearted glare Sora padded out of the kitchen, leaving Roxas cursing his twin's words and the fact that every single one of them was so damned true.

The blonde's attention was caught by a rumbling engine coming to a halt outside and a creaking door slamming shut. His heart skipped a beat at the familiar sound and a moment later the sound of knuckles wrapping against the large front door was heard. Sora and Kairi jumped up and padded out to the door, greeting Axel and ushering him in.

The redhead stood at the entrance to the dimly lit lounge room where the group of friends resided, said room being dimly lit to increase movie viewing, another perk of Riku's fancy house.

Roxas could just see him from the kitchen, clad in tight ish black jeans and his usual black tank with red patterns and a few rips across it. That familiar grin spread across his face as his emerald eyes scanned the room of teens for a certain blonde.

Emerald eyes danced around to meet cerulean orbs watching from the kitchen; A smirk came to rest on Axel's lips and he strode towards the blonde.

Roxas furrowed his brows and looked down; cursing the way his heart thrummed in his ears and his cheeks felt slightly hot just by the redhead's presence.

He felt almost like legging it as the tall teen joined him in the kitchen, coming to stand beside him. That familiar smell of spices filled Roxas's lungs and he had to surpress the electric jolt that threatened to roll up his spine as the redhead spoke; His voice laced with seriousness, something the blonde rarely heard from the older teen. It was usually all jokes and sarcasm.

" We need to talk Roxas."

Cerulean eyes met intense emerald green orbs as they bore into him, lined with black and leading down to those unique markings that graced his upper cheeks. The smirk that had once tugged at his lip's had somewhat left, leaving him looking rather blank and serious. Roxas felt his comeback stuck in his throat and settled for glancing away.

Axel's slender hand came to encircle Roxas's wrist and he pulled the younger teen along with him through the immaculate kitchen and another large hall and out the back doors leading to the pool area. The two were both silent but knew what was to come, Roxas feeling almost deafened by the loud heartbeat in his ear.

The air outside was cool and salty and the sky a lilacy blue colour, signaling the sun's disappearance. Axel let Roxas go and strode along the clean sandstone pavement, chains hanging off his studded belt jingling as he walked past the pool to the waist high glass fence that surrounded the area. With Roxas still in tow and the silence lingering they jumped the fence and headed for privacy across the soft sand and down a dune leading to the calm beach.

Once at the bottom Axel stopped abruptly and turned to face Roxas, causing the younger teen to also stop a few steps away. Another frustrated silence ensued and Roxas glared past the older teen and out at the ocean, calm waves broke along the shoreline and the lilac sky was dotted with little white stars.

Roxas broke the silence, his voice laced with sarcasm. " Well, it's been fun Ax but if you don't mind I'm gon.."

He was cut off by Axel, harsh emerald eyes falling on him and obvious irritation evident in his voice. " Must you be such a stubborn ass all the time Roxas? "

Roxas furrowed his eyebrows further, glaring. He felt flushed with anger and swallowed the lump forming in his throat, turning to leave he was stopped as Axel stepped forward and grabbed his arm. That smirk gracing his lips as he stared intently into Roxas's angry cerulean eyes.

" What, just going to ignore what happened are we? " He redhead spoke, surpressing his urge to get angry and trying to sound as calm as possible, but coming across sarcastic.

The blonde's mind wondered for a moment, memories of that night and their kiss flooding back. Roxas felt his heartbeat begin to race again.

" Let go of me." He spoke harshly, a blush evident on his cheeks.

" Oh get off it Roxas. Don't fucking act like there's nothing going on between us."

" I.I."

" You what? huh Roxy? "

" I'm not! I fucking know there's something ok! " Roxas shouted back, his voice cracking a little.

He swallowed at his words and looked away embarrassed.

' Atleast he freaking admits it.'

Axel thought inwardly, his furrowed eyebrows and intense look softening a little and a sudden urge overwhelming him. With one hand still encircling the blonde's wrist the other came up to rest on his soft cheek, earning a shocked look before he closed the gap between them, pressing his lips with slight force to Roxas's; The only way to get his point across.

Roxas froze up once again, shocked by the move. His wide cerulean eyes flickered up to see Axel's intense emerald orbs before they slid shut.

The blonde's anger melted away as he softened into the kiss, utterly overwhelmed by that intoxicating scent that filled him and the feeling and taste of those warm needy lips pressing against his own, the combination almost too much. No longer in control he felt himself pushing back and a warm tongue slipping over his bottom lip, begging for entrance.

Oh how nice it felt...it felt..right.

But Roxas felt wrong.

All too soon for Axel it was over as cerulean eyes once again snapped open and the blonde pushed the redhead away, his cheeks flushed that uneasy look once again coming to rest on his features.

Slightly irritated the redhead stepped in closer to join them again but was pushed back harshly, the blonde emitting an upset cry. " Don't ! "

Axel felt his anger flare up again, his blood running through his veins like fire at the rejection. " Why the fuck not?! "

Roxas was lost for words, resenting the hot tear that slid down his flustered cheek and the way his lips craved for more. " Just please..please..don't."

Axel closed the gap between them, one hand snaking around the blonde's slim waist and the other coming to rest on his chin, tilting it up and forcing the younger to look at him. Axel's gaze fell from those beautiful shining cerulean eyes to his pink lips. He spoke softly against them, barely touching.

" But I know you want this just as much as I do..."

Shivers wracked the blonde at the touch and he closed his stinging eyes, tearing away from the redhead which he so desperately craved.

"For fucks sake! what are you so afraid of Roxas?! "

The blonde felt himself go weak at the knees and he dropped to the soft sand, cursing the salty tears that rolled down his cheeks.

Another painful silence ensued as the redhead tried to gain his composure, settling the thrumming heartbeat that deafened his ears and glancing to the sobbing blonde on the sand. The sting of rejection, remorse and want twisted his gut in ways he never felt before.

Roxas whiped at his face, so many words and feelings were lodged in his throat. He wanted to fix this, he wanted to be with Axel, but there was something holding him down like a a boulder.

" I..I..ju.. "

He was cut off again by that harsh voice, laced with subdued hurt covered with sarcasm. " You what..."

" Figure it out Roxas. You can only fuck me around for so long. "

With those words said the the older teen left, striding back up the beach.

A thrashed engine revving and loud bass was heard soon after as Axel sped off.

The blonde sat limp in the cool sand, unwanted sobs racking his slim frame and hot tears burning his cerulean orbs. Those last words rung in his ears, harsh and hurtful. Those warm lips lingered on his own, the only thing Roxas felt was how badly he wanted to kiss them back.

Roxas sat there on the beach for a while in his own confusion. The confrontation had been a turning point, the stark truth had reared it's ugly head, and Roxas was left with a decision.


Axel drove home faster and more reckless than a psycho on crack, MSI blaring from the tape deck the whole way. He took his anger and irritation out on the old car, fucking stubborn stupid tease of a Roxas.

By the time the abused old wagon came to a crooked and abrupt halt outside his house he had run two red lights, nearly caused a collision at an intersection and scared a bunch of twelve year old's by the movies beyond repair.

Slamming the creaking door shut and not even bothering to lock the rusted hunk of metal Axel stalked up to the front door, kicking a chair on the front porch out of his way and letting himself in.

Once inside the scungy apartment Axel searched the kitchen for something edible, anything edible ( Axel's definition of edible being anything that wouldn't definently wind him up in hospital with a bad case of food poisoning.)

Axel's whole ' far too lazy to go shopping ' philosophy came back to bite him in the ass so he settled for a bottle of vodka and flopped ungracefully onto the deceased looking couch, feeling utterly rejected and so very sexually frustrated, it had been a while since he had gotten any.

Stretching out a long arm a hand fumbled around on the crap covered coffee tabel for the T.V remote.

Success.

Switching the old instrument on he flicked through the channels, taking a sip of the harsh liquid which burnt all the way down his throat.

ARGH why does Saturday night T.V SUCK SO BAD!

Settling for some crappy murder investigation show, Axel made a point of carelessly throwing the remote away to voice his agitation.

The redhead was distracted by a deep rumbling engine coming to a halt and what sounded like two voices from the driveway, followed by a distinct girlish giggle. Demyx.

After a moment the loud screeching of rubber on bitumen was heard and the strawberry blonde fumbled through the front door and into the lounge.

The teen giggled even more when he saw Axel, sprawled out on the couch with a bottle of vodka and an icy disposition.

" And where the fuck where you? " The redhead questioned matter-of-factly.

" Aww hic Ax! don't be maaad! " Demyx chuckled out, obviously either stoned or drunk, or both.

Donning a low-cut ebony shirt and a pair of tight, black leather pants and boots Demyx half-stumbled half-skipped over to Axel and climbed aboard the other teen, straddling his waist.

Axel cocked an eyebrow and took another swig of the clear liquid, eyeing the teen on his lap. " Out with that slimebag pedo boyfriend of yours? "

Demyx just pouted over dramatically and responded with a slurred " Maaaaybee." before he changed the subject.

" Sooooo..I 'm guessin' Roxy hic screwed you aroun' againn? "

Axel frowned up at his intoxicated friend, receiving another 'awww' sound and a kiss on the forehead.

" Oh I have something that'll make it betterrr."

The strawberry blonde chuckled and lent down to the redhead's lips; Placing a sloppy kiss on them and inching something out of the back pocket of his tight leather pants. Pulling back with a grin he dangled a small clear plastic bag half filled with weed in front of Axel.

The redhead let out a soft sigh as Demyx sat back up, pulling out a light and small black tin engraved with skull patterns and flipping it open. He rolled up an amount of the dried green leaves in the small white paper, Axel flicking on the small orange flame and lighting the joint up for the other teen.

The blonde took in a deep sip and giggled as he exhaled, fingering the joint in his digits before offering it to Axel. The redhead took it in his own slender fingers after a moment, taking an equally deep breath and exhaling, almost instantly feeling somewhat calmed.

Demyx shifted atop of his friend to lay beside him, resting his head on the redhead's shoulder and drawing aimless patterns on the thin material of the tank top that clung to his slender chest. Axel curled a long arm around the smaller teen and took in another breath of the drug. Heavy eyelids slipped over tired emerald eyes Axel felt himself beginning to doze off and the thoughts swirling around his head melt away.


Noticing the darkening lilac sky out the crack of a heavy curtain covering a nearby window Sora jumped up from his seat between Riku and Yuffie. With Tidus and Wakka throwing popcorn at him for blocking the screen and earning a pair of concerned aquamarine eyes he maneuvered out of the room. The brunette padded through the immaculate house to the heavy back doors and stepped out into the crisp night around him, the cool air biting at his revealed skin. Cerulean eyes flickered around the large backyard, no sign of Ax or Rox.

Making his way through the growing shadows to the glass barrier Sora climbed over and onto the sand, his feet swishing through the cool grains as he strode. Standing atop the dune he spotted Roxas seated at the bottom, the bright moonlight and reflection from the calm ocean illuminating his frame. Sora made his way down to his twin, already aware his little talk with Axel had obviously not gone so well.

" Roxas? " He tried quietly.The blonde glanced up at the source of the voice before looking out to the illuminant ocean before him, the white light from the moon making the calm water look almost silver.

The brunette twin took a seat in the soft sand beside his brother, trying his best to wrap his arms around himself to help ease the biting chill. Taking a closer look at the blonde he realized he had been crying, identical cerulean eyes shining with tears and his cheeks and nose a little pink.

Sora placed a tender hand on the other's shoulder and asked quietly.

" Rox, what happened? something bad? "

The blonde chuckled sarcastically and began toying with the hem of his shirt; An obvious yes.

" You could say I fucked up royally." He muttered, his voice still croaky from crying.

" What happened? "

There was a small silence before the blonde responded. " I pushed him away again, I just got confused.."

Sora furrowed his eyebrows slightly. " I want you to tell me Rox, just what exactly is stopping you? "


Back at Riku's house the night was winding up, after the movie and a few rounds of Tekken, Kairi and Namine left- taking Roxas with them and dropping him home. Yuffie had work in the morning and left not long after, Tidus and Wakka stayed for some more rounds, downing yet more food before they left at about 11:30.

Riku locked the heavy front door after he and Sora exchanged their goodbyes to the two gluttonous boy's. The brunette stood in the hall behind Riku, a yawn and a stretch wracked his slim frame and he blinked his watery cerulean eyes, a tired smile playing on his lips.

" Tired? " Riku asked softly, walking up to the younger teen and ruffling his hair.

" A bit. " The brunette replied back, following the older teen dopely as he padded back to the lounge room, gracefully maneuvering through the chip packets and empty cups and bags of candy that littered the floor, illuminated by the dim light of the plasma screen. Deciding he'd clean up tomorro Riku took a seat on the soft leather couch, Sora curling up beside him.

" You're such a baby So." He chuckled out as his younger friend wriggled around to get comfortable.

" Shaddup "

The two settled for watching the end of yet another crappy crime investigation show. Sora drifted off a short while after, resting his soft cinnamon spikes on the olders arm. A warm smile tugged at Riku's lips as he watched his friend sleep peacefully, a content look across his features and his perfectly smooth skin lit dimly by the light from the T.V, his pink lip's looking utterly kissable.

Chuckling softly at his thoughts the silver-haired teen reached for the remote and flicked off the screen. Sliding off the couch carefully he scooped Sora's slender frame up into his strong arms and padded out and up the stairs and to his room.

" Guess your sleeping over tonight then, huh So " Riku muttered amusedly.

Sora woke slightly at the tickle of some the teens long silver locks falling across his face, realizing where he was, the younger teen decided he wasn't going to let on he was partially awake. He was enjoying being in Riku's arm far too much for that.

The older teen opened his door skillfully and slipped inside, padding over to the large bed and carefully setting Sora down on the silky sheets.

They often shared a bed when they were younger, they had always been very close friend's, and tonight Riku was too tired to set up the futon. Tonight it didn't matter.

Sora cracked one cerulean eye open, blushing when he saw Riku stripping down to a pair of light boxers and closing it again as the older teen walked around to the other side of the bed and slipped in behind him, pulling the sheets and a thin blanket over them.

To Sora's surprise a pair of soft arms wrapped his slim waist and chest as Riku brought them closer together. The brunette blushing furiously at the feeling of his back against Riku's chest and electric jolts running down his spine at the warm breath across his neck.

It felt so..nice, being so close to Riku, the one he had loved for so very long.

Sora's blush only increased as a warm pair of lips came to rest on the smooth nape of his neck, kissing the skin gently and whispering against it.

" Goodnight Sora."


MWAHAH!

Roxas is an angsty bitch, Axel's sexually frustrated and Riku and Sora are acting like a couple of lovebirds. Could it get much better? I say yes!

Stay tuned for the next chapter, and review for Pocky goodness!
