"How did she die...?" Ventus asked Vanitas after the long hug, that seemed to have lasted for a half hour. They were waiting in a train station for a train to come and take them back home. Vanitas sniffled and looked at him. "I mean you don't have to tell me if you dont want to..." Ventus looked down trying to avoid a tear stained face, looking at him.

"Well... since you came all this way... might as well..." Vanitas sighed and then took a big breath of air as he tried to calm himself down and prepare to tell the story. "You see, what had happened the day of the accident was something really... bad."

Ventus looked at Vanitas with sincere eyes and patted him on the back. "My mom was at work that day. And you know those people, who check items that are set to display at a museum? For their authenticity and shit?" Vanitas asked and Ven nodded lightly. "Well... what had happened was, she was looking at this really big sword. It was said that it was wielded by someone who was a hero, but anyway, she was inspecting it, up, down, left and right, and... and..." Vanitas balled his hands into fists and started shaking. "Well, she was a pretty strong person, she really didn't need anyone's help when it came to stuff, like lifting things. She should've asked for help for this though..."

Ventus could imagine where this story was going and was getting more upset as Vanitas continued. "She was carrying it down some steps to a different room, but, I have to guess that she misplaced her footing and thats how she started falling down the stairs. The sword went with her obviously and- and..." Ventus started hugging Vanitas, to try and calm down all the shaking he was doing. "The sword fell ahead of her and at the angle that it was... it, it ended up with her, getting stabbed in the chest..." Vanitas let out some tears onto Ventus' shoulder and just accepted that he was there. He finally told someone the secret and he just accepted it as they were alone there in the station and he was letting out all his feelings. He's never been so vulnerable in front of someone, but he'd take it.

Ventus didnt know any words that would make him feel better, honestly he thought there were no words to ease the pain. So he just sat there and hugged Vanitas a little tighter. Ventus as the kind caring soul that he is, instinctively placed a small peck in Vanitas hair.

Vanitas pulled back from the hug and looked into Ventus' eyes. There were some tears left in the corner of his own eyes. At arms length apart, Ventus looked back at him and blinked as he realized his actions. "Sorry..." was the only word he could breathe out from his mouth.

The train pulled in and Ventus got up and offered a hand to Vanitas, which he took and they walked into the train. Ventus let go, but Vanitas didnt. He gripped a little tighter as he looked down to avoid Ven's questioning gaze. Ventus shrugged mentally and he led Vanitas to some empty seats, in front of a window, in an almost empty cart.

As they sat, hand in hand, Ventus looked at the only two other people. An old lady at one end, and a hispter on the other end sleeping with headphones blasting music in his ears.
Ventus was actually glad that no one he knew was on the train to notice this. He wasn't sure himself on how to answer, if somebody asked what was happening.

They sat there in silence for a few minutes, Vanitas never stopped looking down. Ventus kind of just sitting there wondering how he got to this point. He knew why... but he just didnt understand why. He didnt understand how he was now holding hands with someone who used to hit him constantly.

He was snapped out of his wondering when he felt a head hit his shoulder. He looked over to see Vanitas sleeping peacefully. His breathing looked calm and Ventus looked at him... He just looked so, surreal and pleasant to be around. He honestly thought he looked kind of... cute.

He thought about shrugging off Vanitas' head, but decided against it, because he honestly enjoyed the calmness of the environment.

The little munchkin crawled out from Vanitas' pocket and onto Ventus' lap. He just curled into a ball and laid there with it's eyes closed. 'Yep... Ventus becomes a mattress day' He thought 'Thats exactly what to call this day in my journal...'

A little while later, they were approaching their stop, so Ventus grabbed the kitten lightly and held it in his hand. Ventus managed to let his hand go from Vanitas' sleeping grip and lightly used his free hand to shake him awake. He gave little Ventus to him and Vanitas put him back into his sweater pocket.

They finally got off the train and the sun was starting to set. The sky was a wonderful shade of a reddish orange, there were puddles on the ground reflecting the light and making a small rainbow within them. "Hey Ventus..." Vanitas quietly said his name and got his attention.

"Yeah?"

"...Thank you" Vanitas showed him gratitude. Actual gratitude. At first he was looking down, but then he finally had the strength to turn to look at Ventus. Ventus was in awe. He just couldn't believe this day. He smiled and said "You're Welcome..."

Vanitas looked at Ventus' eyes and had a thought. He pointed at something behind Ventus and Ventus turned to look at whatever Vanitas seemed to be pointing out. Vanitas looked around to see if anyone they knew was around, but thankfully there wasn't. "Vanitas, I dont see what Im supposed to be looking-" Ventus turned around and was struck with a kiss on the lips from the black haired boy.

Ventus' eyes were wide while Vanitas' were closed. He could actually feel passion coming from Vanitas and he just stood there not knowing how to react.

Vanitas pulled away and looked at Ventus one last time...

"Uh..." was the only thing Ventus could think of to say with his cheeks burning red and his heart racing unexpectedly.

Vanitas gave a toothy smirk as he said "Thanks again..." He turned around and walked away towards the direction of his home.

Ventus just turned his way and walked home.

Ventus thought about that entire day as he was laying in bed at home. It was night time right now. He couldn't just get over everything. He kept analyzing every detail he could recall as he kept writing in his Journal. His mind just kept racing back to that kiss. He could still feel Vanitas' lips on his as he kept writing. What was up with him? He just couldn't understand anything anymore.

As he closed his book, he received a text from a very good looking Silver haired male.

"Hey Ven... do you want to come with me to the Library tomorrow?"

Ventus thought about it and wrote back "Yeah sure, Riku. Why are you going?"

"No reason really...
Im just in the mood to find a good quiet place to read a book, where Sora cant bother me, haha."

"Alright, I'll see you there?"

"Yeah, be there around two will you?"

"Alright. Nighty night."

"Alright, it's a date.
And nighty night? What are you? My mother?" Ventus could obviously tell that was a joke.

"Oh shut up xD
Just have a good night sleep. I'll be there at two. Bye~"

"Good night, Ven"

And with that, Ventus shut his phone and tossed onto his bed side table. He was so tired he could just plop where he stood. Good thing he was already in bed, eh?

He went into a nice sleep, last thing on his mind was how he thought his date with Riku was going to go.

The next morning, Ventus slept in until eleven AM. He woke up and stretched out his arms and stretched out his shirtless back. He looked to the other bed in the room to see that Roxas wasn't there. If he's not here sleeping, he's probably over at Axel's still. Ventus thought.

Ventus took off his blanket and let his feet touch the cold wooden floor. It took him a second to adjust, but he eventually got up and started walking to the bathroom.

He looked into the mirror and cringed at how bad his hair looked this morning. He took of his only article of clothing, his boxer shorts, and went into the shower. He turned on the hot water and just let himself lean against the wall for a minute while he waited for it to heat up.

He took his shower, washed his hair, and cleaned himself off.

He stepped out and wrapped towel around his waist and used another to put on his head to start drying his hair. He walked out and made his way into the kitchen.

"Hey Ven! How you doing this morning?" His older brother Demyx asked rather cheerful.

"Hey Dem. Im alright. What are you doing up so early? And why are you not grumpy?" Ven asked as he sat down at the island looking at his brother questioningly. Demyx was never one to wake up this early, much less wake up in a good mood.

"I had a nightmare last night that I was going to be alone forever, and I woke up at like six in the morning." Demyx said as he buttered his toast. "And then I watched some old cartoons and ate some pre-breakfast, breakfast." He smiled "So Im feeling much better."

"If you say so" Ventus replied as he asked Demyx to make him some toast too. Demyx said he was too lazy to and made some more toast for himself. Ventus shook his head and got up to the fridge to get some eggs that he could hard boil.

"Hey Ven, what are you doing today?" Demyx asked as he made himself a bowl of cereal to go with his toast.

"Oh... I have a date at the Library at two"

"Ohhhh~ A date~? With who?" Demyx mused as he looked at Ventus.

"With a guy"

"Well no shit, Sherlock" Demyx stated sarcastically "Who is he?"

"He's a new guy in my school. His name is Riku" Ventus smiled as he said his name. He put the eggs in a pot, filled it up with water and turned on the stove.

"Riku, eh? Sounds pretty exotic~" Demyx thought out loud.

"Yeah, like Ventus, Demyx and Roxas dont sound like strange names at all" Ven rolled his eyes.

"Well just let him know that you have a big brother ready to kick his ass if he tries anything funny" Demyx said. He slammed his fist against his open palm, in a joking matter.

"Demyx thanks, but he worked with Aunty Larxene in her dojo, I dont think you could beat him that easily." Ventus chuckled. He grabbed a glass from the cabinets and grabbed the orange juice from the fridge and made himself a cup of sweet OJ.

"Aunt Larxene, eh?" Demyx questioned as he took Ventus' cup and took a sip. "Remind me to thank her for my birthday card" He said nonchalantly.

"Do it yourself" Ven said as he grabbed his drink back and drank from it himself.

"Ugh, fine fine" Demyx grabbed his food and walked out into the living room and started watching Dora the Explorer on the TV.

Ven put some bread in the toaster as he waited for his eggs, he went to his room and put on some clothes.

Ventus and Demyx just finished their food and it was about one o'clock when Roxas came through the door. "I'm home!" He yelled.

"Hey~" Demyx chimed up while still intently listening to Dora talking about crossing some river.

Roxas walked in the room where his siblings were and looked at the TV. "Where are mom and dad?"

"They went out shopping" Demyx replied taking a sip of milk out of the bowl with his legs crossed up on the couch..

"And why are you guys watching Dora?" He asked curiously.

Ven and Demyx looked at each other and then looked intently in the direction of the remote, which was all the way on the stand where the TV was; on the opposite side of the room.

"You guys are so lazy..." Roxas sighed as he grabbed the remote and tossed it at them. "Is there any food left, Dem?"

"Not much since I dug into it this morning. Why do you think mom and dad went shopping?"

"Whatever. I'll just go take a nap and try to see if the pain in my hips go away" Roxas said as he started walking towards the bedroom.

"Ew, Roxas, too early to hear about it" Ventus said as he stood up and stretched out his arms.

"If you arch your back in a certain way and if he uses extra lube, it wont hurt as much the next day!" Demyx flatly called to him.

"Thanks, goodnight" Roxas rolled his eyes and walked away.

Ventus gave Dem a 'what the fuck' look. "What? It works on all the guys I did it with" He shrugged.

"I didnt really need to know that" Ventus said. It wasn't like he didn't like talking about sex with his brothers, he was just the only virgin left in the house, so he just couldn't really follow the feelings and stories and other things. "Whatever, Im going to go take a quick walk before I go to the library" Ventus grabbed his phone and keys and made his way out.

Ventus stood outside the library at exactly two o'clock. He stood there waiting for Riku to show up. He was really nervous, the butterflies in his stomach wouldn't stop flapping and his heart was beating a little fast. Calm down Ven, it's just a date... He thought as he relaxed his breathing.

Suddenly, there was a buzz inside Ventus' pocket. He got a text from the guy he was hoping to see. "Hey Ven, Im already inside"

Ventus turned around and looked through the window. He saw Riku waving at him then waving him in and he smiled. He put his phone back in his pocket and walked inside. Riku met him at the door and they greeted each other. Riku took Ventus' hand and put it above Ven's head and got him to spin under his arm. Ven chuckled and they made their way through some aisles of books.

"How did you get here earlier than me?" Ven asked Riku.

"Remember the cousin I told you about?" Riku replied "He works here, so he brought me with him" Riku pointed at a taller man sitting at the front desk, reading a book. He was slightly pale, slim, with blueish-purple eyes, and platinum hair. He had bangs that covered his right eye. He wore a gray and black long sleeved shirt and you couldnt see much of his bottom half so "Pretty fitting job for Zexion, if I do say so myself. His nose is always in a book"

"Really..." Ven said lowly. Then he had a thought Does everybody in his family have silver-ish hair?
