New chapter. Yay? I want to thank Leven-the-Valkyrie cheering me up with even realizing it. The reason I wrote this chapter up instead of being lazy l hope you all enjoy. P.S. Over 5k o.o oh and bold italics means flashback conversation.


Roxas groaned when he woke up the next day with a killer headache. His arm that was hanging off the edge of the bed reached for the clock that showed that it was 5 in the morning.

He groaned again and rubbed his eyes hissing in pain from the pressure. 'What the hell?' He poked the sore spot twice wincing each time. He sat up cursing from the pain he felt in his gut. Looking down as he pulled up his shirt and he saw a large purple bruise on his flat stomach.

'Thats right Hayner and I fought.' He thought as he let his shirt fall back down. He laid back down too tired to get up. He didn't want to go to school today. Maybe he could just stay in bed. What was the point when it was Friday and no doubt a lot more kids would ditch school today.

He pulled his blanket back over himself getting comfy. He and Ven could miss a day. It wouldn't kill them and he was sure Ventus wouldn't mind sleeping in too. With a content sigh Roxas shut his eyes hoping his headache would disappear by the time he woke up again.

Just as he was about to fall asleep he felt a pair of arms wrapping around him. The arms pulled him back against the owner's body. The blond froze up regretting the fact that he got drunk last night and could barely remember what happened last night.

'Okay think. I sat by the pool got drunk and fought with Hayner. Uh come on. Olette! I said things to her and...shit! I made out with Hayner in front of her a-and...oh god please tell that's not him behind me.'

Ever so slowly Roxas turned his head to glance behind himself. The first thing he saw was red. 'Okay not him. But...then who?'

He turned his body a little bit trying to get a better look. 'Oh fuck! It's Axel! H-how..wh-what?' Blue eyes widen as he turned back so his back was facing the obviously shirtless man behind him.

'Please please tell me we didn't do anything last night.' He inhaled through his nose and as quietly as he could exhaled. 'Okay Roxas think. Just concentrate. I know I wasn't that drunk if I can remember more than I should. Axel...water and warmth?'

He closed his eyes trying to think more without hurting his pounding head. 'Water, Axel carried me out and someone put a towel on me. Then...oh hell! We we kissed! B-but nothing after that right? I-I don't think there was anything else. Then why is he in my bed? He's really warm and wow I'm sleepy.'

Roxas laid his arm over Axel's letting out another content sigh as sleep swept over. The next time he woke up he was facing the older teen with his face resting on his bare chest. He glanced up to Axel was still sleeping peacefully. Roxas took this moment to examine his facial features once again. The first time he tried Axel had caught him doing so. This time however, he planned on not getting caught.

Axel had the most beautiful face he had ever seen. Creamy pale tan skin, eye lashes that were not to long and not to short. Just the right length for him. His tattoos complimented his eyes and cheek bones. His smooth pink lips cutely parting as he slept. Even his bed head made him look good.

Blue eyes traveled down this neck and chest. So smooth just like his face. He stared at his pecs trying to ignore his nipples. He adverted his gaze to his clavicle wishing to nibble and poke at it.

"Roxas?" A groggy voice asked with a yawn fallowing after. "You awake?"

Roxas gulped as he broke out his trance. He tilted his head back so he could look into sleepy acid green eyes. "Y-yeah."

"That eye of yours looks bad. We should really fix that." Axel held his cheek and ran his thumb over his black eye being careful as to not hurt him.

"What time is it?" Was all the blond could say without embarrassing himself.

Axel reached over him causing his chest to be hovered over the blushing blond. "Shit. It's 9 in the morning." He moved back so he was laying back down. "Looks like schools out of the days options. Oh well, I was going to ditch anyway."

"I was planning on just sleeping today. I'm to damn sore to do anything else." The younger of the two yawned as he rolled onto his side so he was facing the curtained window that blocked out the sun's light.

Axel just hummed and wrapped his arms around Roxas waist nuzzling the back of his neck. Roxas giggled and wiggled around. "What are you doing?"

"Just holding you." Axel spoke with his lips brushing against the back of the blond's neck which he then started kissing him.

Roxas gasped and snapped his eyes closed at the tingling sensation running up and down his spine. He bit his lower lip trying not to let any unnecessary sounds escape. 'whats he doing?!'

Axel smiled against the blond's neck as he moved his kisses down to what was exposed of his shoulder while he pulled him closer. His right hand slid up Roxas clothed stomach slowly before placing it back to his around his waist.

'What the hell is he doing?!' He screamed at himself as he let out a small whimper. 'Why am I letting him do whatever it is he's doing?!'

"Roxas." Axel whispered his name as he kissed back up his neck to his ear which he began to nibble and lick.

"Axel," Roxas gasped out. 'Stop!'

"Roxas," Axel mumbled back leaning over to kiss his cheek. He stopped however seen the look in his blue eyes. Realization hit him hard. "Fuck. Roxas I'm sorry. I-I didn't- I mean I. Fuck." He sat up letting go of the teary eyed blond. "I'm sorry...I'll go."

Roxas sniffled and bit his lip again. "A-Axel...don't go." He said weakly.

Axel looked at him worriedly. He just sat there unsure of what to do. He felt like such an idiot. He let last nights kissing and some what cuddling get to his head. That part of his mind telling him it was okay to do what he did and that Roxas would be fine with it. While the smarter part kept calling him a selfish jack ass.

He looked down at trembling teen feeling even worse. He really wanted to get up and leave now.

"Axel?" Roxas sat up wiping his eyes and wincing at the pressure from one of his eyes.

Axel said nothing. He didn't even look at the blond feeling to ashamed of himself for acting on his wants.

Roxas got his attention by taking his hand and placing it over his pounding heart. The silent teen met his eyes with confusion until Roxas leaned forward and kissed him.

"Y-you were going to fast." He looked away blushing. 'So am I. I'm really stupid. I don't want to hurt him anymore or worry him.'

"Roxas does that mean?" Axel couldn't finish his question. He felt to shocked himself to even think that Roxas would be with him.

Roxas blushed and let go of his hand. He gulped and twiddled his thumbs averting his gaze. "Axel, I...I'm sorry but..."

Axel sighed and roughly pushed Roxas onto his back. He moved so he was over him with his hands pinning the teen's wrists to the mattress and his legs pinned down with his own longer limbs.

Roxas stared up at Axel wide eyed. "A-Axel wh- mff"

Axel shut him up with a frustrated kiss. When he pulled back the two gasped for air. Axel's serious eyes pricing through Roxas' slowly growing angry eyes. They stared at each other panting.

"I'm tired Roxas. Make up your mind right now." Axel huffed out with an almost venomous tone to it. It was a little more tired than anything besides that.

Roxas began to struggle against the stronger teen. He wiggled around and jerked his arms and legs having no success what so ever. "What do you want me to say?! Damn it Axel get off me!"

"Not until you tell me whether or not you feel anything for me." Axel hisses at him. "I'm tired of feeling like you're screwing with my heart! If that's what your doing then you're just the-"

"I'm not trying to! I-I just..."Roxas lowered his voice and adverted his gaze.

"You just what Roxas?" Axel asked tiredly.

"Please just get off of me. I told you not to wait for me didn't I? The only one screwing with your heart is yourself." Roxas hated himself at that moment. He didn't know any other way out of this. "Get over me Axel, I'll never be with you"

'Dont believe me! Please'

Axel released one of the blond's wrist only to smack him across the face. Leaving a nice red hand print on his cheek. "Roxas, listen up! I'm done with this bullshit. No matter how hard I try to get close to you, you push me away. From now on ill leave you alone since that's what you want."

'No Axel I'm sorry.'

"All you wanted was to get into my pants from day one." He spat out too angry to even care that the one person he thought would never psychically hurt did just that.

"That's not true. Roxas I just wanted to know what was bothering you. I just want your trust..."

"And my ass."

Axel growled and pushed himself off the blond. He ran a hand through his messy hair. "Roxas."

"Are you going to leave n-"

"I love you." Axel felt pathetic. He told him this before. What difference would it make now.

Roxas shut his mouth thinking that exact same thing. But the thing was, with everything that was said. It seemed like something the blond couldn't say anything about. Instead he felt himself crying again. He really hated crying especially in front of Axel.

He felt himself being held again. A hand gently stroking his back in a soothing manner. Roxas buried his face against the still bare chest of Axel.

"I love you Roxas." Axel said again in a gentler tone. "I'm sorry for yelling at you and losing my temper... Im sorry i struck you."

'What is wrong with me?' The older of the two thought. 'I hit him, fucking hell.'

"I really will leave you alone if that's what you want." He felt Roxas shaking his head as more tears wet his chest.

"I-I'm s-sorwy. Askel." He did his best to speak through his sobs. "Im sorwy."

"Shuu Roxas it's okay." He held him like that for ten more minutes until the blond stopped his cries. He glanced down at him and gently wiped his eyes. "Better?"

Roxas nodded and sniffled as Axel laid them back down. He stroked Roxas head trying to comfort him as much as he could even though he himself wanted to cry.

"Axel, I do have feelings for you." Roxas finally admitted to the both of them. "I think I have...for awhile now...I'm so sorry."

Axel smiled and pecked the top of his head. He felt his pained heart soar into the sky. "Thank you for telling me."

"Axel? Please don't ever leave me?" Roxas shifted so he could hold the redhead back. "I'm sorry I was being a stubborn bastard."

He chuckled and pecked the younger male's nose. "I'll forgive you if you give me a chance to prove to you that what I say and feel are genuine."

"Is that your way of asking me on a d-date?" Roxas felt his face flush when Axel told him yes. "I-I'll give you the chance."

"Really?" Axel sounded so happy. It was as if someone told him he could steal all of Sora's candy and not get killed for it.

Roxas laughed and nodded. Axel smiled and gave him a tight hug. "Can't breath." Axel chuckled and let him go.

"Next Saturday?"

"Sure."

"You won't regret this Roxas." Axel had a huge ass grin across his face as he got up. "Bathroom. Need to piss. Holding it in to long.

Roxas laughed and closed his eyes. He let sleep take him once again.


"I don't feel so good." Ven whimpered rubbing his pancaked filled belly.

"Oh silly you just ate to much is all." Axel's mother said as she cleaned Ven's face.

"It was yummy." Ven gave her a big smile. "Thank you."

The woman smiled and kissed his cheek. She took the boy's plate from off of the coffee table that was in front of the couch and tv screen. She let the child watch tv with his pancakes only so he didn't hear the two teens upstairs arguing. She was going to be talking to them that was for sure.

"Can I have a glass of milk please?" The child asked as he got up from his spot on the floor to walk toward the small kitchen.

"Of course dear." The women got him a plastic cup and took the milk out pouring some into the cup before handing it to him.

"Thank you!" Ven drank it happily getting a milk mustache. He handed the empty cup back to the lady and grinned when he heard one of the doors upstairs open and close.

"Wasis is up!" He squeaked as he scurried up the stairs turn in the hall and bumped into Axel.

"Whoa you alright kiddo?" Axel help him up trying not to piss himself the longer he tried to hold it in.

"I'm fine." Ven tilted his head to one side looking up at the taller man's messy bed head. It made him giggle. "Y-you look like S-so hahaha"

"Hey." Axel put his hands on his hips. "I don't look like Sora." Ventus continued to giggle while pointing at the mess of hair on his head.

Axel lifted a hand to feel around his head. He walked past the giggling blond and into the bathroom to look in the mirror. He chuckled as he saw his once tamed spikes sticking out like the brunettes.

"Told you." Ven giggled one last time letting Axel use the bathroom in peace. He turned on his heel and headed to his uncle's room stopping mid step. "Assel's room is that way." He pointed back down the hall. "But he came from this way?" He frowned not liking that he was confused.

"Hey Ven what's wrong?" Axel came up behind him now that he was done.

The blond turned around pouting. "Your room is that way but you came from this way?"

Axel rubbed the back of his head nervously. "I uh went to check on Roxas. He's still sleeping." He lied to the kid.

"Oh okay. Why are you shirtless?" Ven pointed at him.

"I like sleeping without a shirt on mister."

"Is it comfy?" He asked wondering if he should give it a try tonight.

"Well comfy for me but it may not be comfy for you." Axel ruffled his blond spikes as he turned to head back into his room.

Ven turned and went into his Uncle's room planing on waking him up.

About three hours later Roxas found himself sitting in Sora's living room again. Ventus woke him up asking about school. Roxas told him that it was okay to miss one day of school and that he would get up if Ven stopped jumping on his bed as if it were a trampoline.

He got ready for the day. He ate one pancake and headed outside to help Sora, Riku, and Kairi, along with Axel to clean up the party mess. It was really awkward through out the whole cleaning process. It wasn't until they finished that Sora asked to talk to him alone.

Sora sat down next him thinking of what he wanted to say. Roxas opened his mouth to say something. He didn't like the tension between them. "I'm sorry Sora. I ruined your party and made a scene."

Sora started laughing. Roxas was taken aback by this reaction. 'He's lost his mind.' He thought while Sora kept laughing.

"Roxas you didn't ruin it. You made it one of the best parties we ever had." Sora put a hand up to stop the blond from interrupting him. "Confused huh?"

The teen nodded while Sora chuckled grinning as he leaned back against the couch. His gaze adverted to the ceiling. "When we saw that girl running into the house crying her eyes out, everyone stopped what they were doing and went outside only to see you chugging a beer and Hayner tackling you into the pool."

Roxas looked down frowning at his actions. Sora faced him still smiling. "We were in a quite a bit of shock. I actually just thought you guys were playing or something until we saw him hitting you. I think Axel's the only one that knew what was going on because he dove into the water before I could."

"He came up with you while I dragged Hayner to yell at him. Don't get me wrong I was mad at you guys but its been a while since something like happened. I think the last time it was Tidus and Wakka but they fought over there blitzball game."

"Anyway, after I forced him to his room and Axel took you to yours, everyone jumped into the pool and started to have more wasted fun. There was even more excitement last night. Thank you and I'm sorry for whatever happened."

"I uh don't worry about it?" Roxas felt like an idiot for being at a loss for words.

"Well I have to go make a drop off and maybe just maybe the house will be at peace...You and Axel are okay too right? I don't want to have to kick him out too."

"What? Of course we're fine. What do you mean by that?" Roxas tried not let his words come out as a ramble.

Sora got up and started cracking up. "I'm just kidding Roxas" He poked the blond's head only to have it swatted away by the flustered teen. "See ya."


"Uncle Wasis?" Ven asked him as they walked toward a swing set at the park.

It was after his and Sora's talk did the young boy find and beg him to take him to the park. Roxas told him the walk was a little bit longer than what they usually would take. But the child just smiled at him and pointed to Axel with car keys in hand.

"He just has a way with words to get anything he wants from me."

"He has that effect on me too. Alright Ventus we can go to the park."

"Yes! Thank you!"

"Yeah? What's up little guy?" Roxas stopped his walking and kneeled down beside him so he was eye level.

"Can we go on the slide instead?" He asked timidly.

"What's wrong buddy?" Ventus chewed on his lip trying to hide his blush as Axel was now beside him.

"Just want to slide." He answered peaking up to glance at the swing set. The two teens followed his gaze and landed on the only kid swinging.

"Holy hell doesn't that look like?" Roxas questioned no one in particular.

"Yeah it does. That's really weird." Axel answered him as they examined the kid kicking his legs back and forth to make his swing move.

He had black boots with red strips zig zagged on the top. He wore black pants and shirt with one spiked wrist band on his right wrist. Golden yellow eyes to match his raven spiky hair looking identical to a certain brunettes.

"Th-that's Vanitas." Axel and Roxas looked back at the timid Ventus. They both compared his own clothing to the kid on the swing. Ventus was wearing whitish beige pants with a blue Adventure Time character shirt.

"How old is he?" Axel asked as he stood up winding what kind of child dresses like an emo or punker or goth teenager.

"Six. He's in my class but he's really mean and scary." Ventus pulled on Roxas' shirt. "Please can we go to the slide?"

Roxas sighed, "Ven don't let him get to you. He probably has his reasons. What I want to know is why nobody else is here. I get school but I mean."

"Why is he here by himself? Who knows, come on Ven I'll race you to the swings. If you win then you can have any treat you want."

"Ice cream?!" Ven took off running before Axel could even blink.

"I think he has enough candy at home. He doesn't need ice cream." Roxas shook his head. "What are you doing? Go after him." Axel rolled his eyes and ran after the kid.

"I win! You owe me ice cream now mister!" Ventus panted as he yelled at the red head who started walking now.

Ven turned when he heard a chuckle. "You really think you need ice cream? You're already fat as it is."

"I'm not fat!" Ven poked his tummy and began to sniffle.

Roxas glared at the kid when he saw his nephew starting to cry. If Axel didn't pull him back he would have done something stupid.

"Alright Ven I'll get you ice cream. Play nice with your friend while Roxas and I go talk by that tree over there."

"Axel wait?" Roxas tried to protest but was picked up and placed over Axel's shoulder. He winced at the pressure on his gut. "What the heck Axel put me down!"

"Just let him fight his own battles. Roxas you can't always be there to protect him." He said as he put him down by a tree a few feet away.

Roxas huffed and crossed his arms. "If I see him get hit you can count that date canceled."

The older teen frowned. "If he gets hit. I don't think he will though. And we can always reschedule."

"Axel I'm serious." Roxas turned away from him to watch his nephew. "I'll hate you."

Axel sighed, "Do you really want to go through all that again?"

"Do you really have to be an ass?"

"Why are you so damn stubborn?" Axel slammed his fist against the tree making Roxas flinch.

"Why do you even like me?" Roxas moved to walk away but Axel spun him around.

"Because I do. I like everything about you. Even your stubbornness. Even though its irritating right now." Axel leaned down and kissed him.

Back to Ventus~

Ventus sniffled when again when Axel dragged his uncle away. His eyes followed them to the tree they stood under. They then came back to the older child now standing in front of him smirking.

"Aw is the baby going to cry now?" Vanitas mocked a sniffle. "Well Terra isn't here to protect you now. And neither is any teacher or Aqua."

"Wasis a-and Assel are." He said quietly while looking at his feet.

"Please, they just ditched you. And I'm so sick of hearing you say names like that! You realize it makes you sound more like a baby. And Assel? Sounds like ass hole to me with the way you say it."

Ventus trembled and did his best to keep his sobs in. He looked up into mean yellow eyes and shook more. "I'm not a baby a-and my mommy says that's a bad word."

"Well my mommy's dead because my daddy killed her and my big sister Xion. So daddy's in jail and nobody can punish me for saying it." Vanitas wiped his eyes.

"Why would your daddy do that?" Ventus took a step closer to the boy.

"Because mommy was a cheating whore. That's what he told me right before he killed Xion and then tried to kill me too." Vanitas sniffled and let a few tears fall.

Ventus took another step closer and pulled the scary kid into a hug. Vanitas just sobbed into his shoulder. Ventus hushed him like his uncle would always do him. He even rubbed the kid's back a few time.

He didn't really know what to do or say. His little mind was telling him to tell Roxas and Axel. But when his bright blue eyes found them again he saw Axel leaning down and kissing his angry looking uncle. He felt a tingle of pain in his heart but pushed it aside.

'Daddy did that to mommy when she would be mad. Then she would be happy again...maybe Axel is just doing the same thing? Daddy also kisses mommy when she cries and they all kiss me when I cry so maybe?'

Ventus pulled back from the hug and kissed the rosy cheek of Vanitas.

Vanitas' eyes widen and he pushed Ventus away from him. "You freak! Don't ever do that again!" He ran away from him and headed down the street.

Roxas pushed Axel off the moment he kissed him. He would have slapped him if it wasn't for the fact that he heard the raven haired kid yelling and running away. "Ven!" He pushed past Axel and ran to his nephew's side.

"Wasis" he cried and clang to him. "He-he h-hates me." He whimpered and began to sob.

"Roxas I'm sorry. I-I Ven why are you crying?" 'Shit did he see?'

"V-Vanitas doesn't h-have a-a mommy or s-sister. H-his daddy killed them -and was gonna kill him." Roxas and Axel stood shock by the child's words.

"Why did he push you?" Roxas asked trying to calm him down.

"I saw A-Axel kiss you-"

'Fuck!' - Roxas

'Fuck!'- Axel

"-then I remember m-mommy and d-d-daddy and you would a-all kiss me to make things better s-so"

"You kissed him?" Axel asked feeling horrible right now. Not just because of what Ventus had seen but because of what that poor raven haired kid just went through.

"Uh huh o-on his cheek. Then he pushed me and called me a freak." He began to cry again.

"Shuu Ven you're not a freak. He was probably just surprised and didn't know how to respond."

"Weally?" He sniffled.

"Yeah, I'm pretty sure your uncle was going to hit me." Axel rubbed the back of his head.

"Weally?" He asked again look at his uncle.

Roxas glared at the red head. "I was going to do something like that."

"Why?" Ven asked all tears stopping.

Axel licked his dry lips and sighed. "Roxas I think I should just tell him now."

Roxas frowned sadly and sat on one of the swings with Ventus on his lap. He looked back and forth at the two confused.

"Ventus, you like me don't you?" Axel kneeled down with a small smile on his face."

Ven's blue eyes widen and his cheek turned pink. "N-no!"

"Ventus, I uh...I like your uncle." Axel still had the sad smile on his face.

Ventus felt more tears in his eyes. He put a hand on his aching chest as he started to breath heavily. He looked up at Roxas. His hurt blue eyes meeting with sad ones. "W-Wasis likes Assel too?"

"I-I...I'm sorry Ven." Roxas could feel his own eyes tearing up. He held his nephew closer to him wishing for that pained look in his eyes to go away.

Ventus let the tears fall freely as he cried as loud as he could into Roxas' shirt. They let him cry for almost twenty minutes before he ran out of tears. Roxas had been crying with him apologizing to him over and over.

Axel just sat on the ground in front of them with his face buried in his arms that were on his knees which were pulled up to his chest. He too was saying he was sorry to the child.

Ventus sniffled and rubbed his eyes. "C-can I still be your friend Assel?" He hiccup and rubbed his puff red eyes again.

Axel looked up at him and reached out, pulling the two blond's into his arms. He held them while telling Ventus "only if you want to be my friend."

Ventus nodded and pecked both of their cheeks. "It's okay...A-aqua told me that it would hurt."

"What do you mean?" Axel asked him noticing Roxas couldn't talk right now. He felt to much guilt for his nephew's pain.

"She said that Assel liked Roxas and that someone else likes me anyway. But she never told me who. She just told me it was a he." He blushed hiding his face.

"That girl is too smart for her own good." Axel chuckled.

"Uncle Roxas?" Ventus asked for his attention. "I still love you."

Roxas blinked his eyes finally and pulled Ventus into a tighter hug which the boy returned. "I love you Ventus."

"Good, can I have ice cream now?" The teens lightly laughed. "What? I won the race?" He huffed and crossed his arms."

"You can have all the ice cream you want buddy." Axel smiled at him and picked him up carrying him to the car with Roxas smiling behind them.

'Cloud, Tifa, will you too wake up soon? Your missing a lot.'


"Excuse me?" A tired deep voice asked to a girl sitting in front of a computer desk.

"Can I help you?" She asked the stranger.

"I'm here to visit a patient of yours." He replied curtly.

The girl gave a forced smile and typed something into her computer. "Can I ask for the patient's name please?"

"Cloud Strife. I'm his father."


Duh duh duuuuuuuh XD I'm bored o.o please review. I really have a feeling that what was supposed to be a short story will turn into a long ass one. Thank to everyone that will/might stick with this story.
