Chapter 4

Sorry for the delay been hell really.

The rest of that week passed pretty much with a blur, the twins spending most of their time either unpacking the large house or hanging out with Axel and his crew. By now the house was pretty much unpacked, with the exception of Cloud's room and the downstairs living room. Sora spent no time at all setting up what he deemed as the 'Game room of Kings' on the upper floor. Tv and game systems decorating the walls and all surrounded by what Sora called 'Heartless' small black shadow beings. Sora had taken to drawing on all the walls of the upstairs, so long as it wasn't permanent paint he saw no problem at all with doodling.

Roxas was currently raiding the kitchen while on the phone with his brother Cloud. Phone on his shoulder he shuffled through all the cabinets/drawers mindlessly searching for nothing in particular.

'What are you doing making so much noise around there?' His brother Cloud questioned over the phone.

'Dunno really, started looking for something to eat now I'm just trying to find where everything is. Axel decided he'd unpack this room so I have no clue where anything is.' Roxas replied pulling open a drawer on the island bar and finding random assortments of spoons. 'Either he unpacked this room as a joke or he needs to seriously work on his organization skills' Roxas chuckled.

'I don't really know how I feel about this boy being in my house when I'm not there… especially since I haven't even met the guy.'

'Don't get your panties in a bunch he's really cool. If it wasn't for him and his friends we wouldn't have gotten all of this stuff done. Speaking of which do you want us to assemble your room or do you want to have the honors?' Closing the drawer and opening the one next to it Roxas chuckled. Lids… who taught this guy how to arrange a kitchen?!

'Just leave it, I should be home later this week… hopefully. That's if this moron here stops burying everything we dig up.' Cloud meekly responded, noise came through the phone signaling that Cloud was no longer alone in the room which earned a sigh from Cloud.

'Not playing nice?' Roxas joked choosing instead to listen closely to the background noise.

'Don't start. I'm just tired of it over here. Everyone gawks because I don't have an accent… or because I have one… whatever. And to top it all off I've been harassed by this…. This moron the entire time! He follows the rule of 50 noes and a yes is still a yes… I'm just tired of having to hide.' Cloud ranted before sucking in a breath, 'Son of a..'

'What?'

~Hey Cloudie boy how are you this lovely day?! Oi don't run off darling!~

'Speak of the devil and he shall appear?' Roxas chuckled.

'You're telling me, look I'll have to talk to you later. I'm going to talk to professor Hojo tonight and see if I can make it home this weekend or something. Not really making much progress….HEY GIVE THAT BACK' Cloud called sounding distant before a catlike voice called through the receiver. 'YOOOOOOOOOO so tell me mystery caller who are you to this chocobo head and why have you captured his attention so?' The mysterious man cooed. 'Aww calm down Cloudie you can have as much of me as you want!'

~GIVE ME BACK MY PHONE!~

'Better do as he says, my brother can have quite the temper' Roxas joked listening to the struggle. 'Anyway tell him I'll talk to him later I have better things to do haha' pulling the phone away from his ear Roxas ended the call before laying his phone down on the counter.

Glancing next door he peered over to Axel's house. The redhead was currently at work so the house was unoccupied which tempted Roxas. Earlier on Axel actually gave him a spare key to the home since they were becoming such good friends. Roxas personally didn't understand the attraction he had to the man but it was there, every time he touched/looked at/ or even thought of Axel his stomach fluttered and he didn't understand it.

Reaching into his pocket Roxas smiled before walking out of his kitchen door and over to Axel's house, slipping the key into the lock he grinned stepping inside. The house was the same as the last time he'd been in the house, when he cracked his head open, so there wasn't really much to look at. But what Roxas was really there for was to go through Axel's room; he didn't understand why the thought intrigued him so he just knew he really wanted to find some secrets… That and boredom isn't really a good thing for a teenager to have.

So quietly Roxas walked down the hallway that led to Axel's room before opening the door. Not quite what he was expecting in the room but still held his attention. The room was pretty much bare, from walking in the room you get the straight on view of the bed which was actually made up neatly with a deep violet bedding set; nightstands were set up on either side of the bed similar to the guest bedroom the boys shared. Other than one other dresser and an open closet the room was bare. No posters, no clutter…. Just a room basically.

Still curious Roxas walked over to the nightstand on the right side of the bed slipping open the drawer to find lube, condoms, and a weird studded ring looking thing. Roxas all but slammed the drawer closed blush across his face, why wouldn't Axel have these items in his home… it was pretty common for a man to be… prepared? Right? Shaking his head Roxas continued through the stand and found a small spiral notepad.

Grinning Roxas opened the pad to the first page before reading the scribble he assumed to be Axel's handwriting:

So Reno suggests that I write everything down in they happen again and since I know you are probably going to read this you moron fuck off and at least let me have my privacy I'm alright I promise.

Confused Rox sat himself on Axel's bed leaning up against the headboard before flipping later into the book stopping at a page that had a different color writing than the rest.

Went to the boathouse with Demyx and Zexion today everything went fine until we started drinking. I usually don't like drinking… Well I dreamed that night of fire and betrayal. I don't completely understand but it had something to do with being forgotten and ordered to kill someone I loved. Absurd right?

Frowning Roxas read on… Ordered, Axel loved someone? It didn't make any since. I'll have to ask him about this…somehow. Sighing Roxas flipped the book to the last entry.

New neighbors, two guys twins actually… No actually triplets. There was an accident and they lost the other. The blond though is the same as my dreams, makes me sound so sick dreaming of him that way. Yet being with him I can remember things… a tall tower, ice cream but then it all comes back to pain. Heh I should probably see a doctor and get a stop to these weird dreams before they start causing problems.

~Clash~

Roxas jumped at the noise coming from the front of the house. Assuming Axel had returned home early he jumped up and slammed the book back into the drawer. For some odd reason Roxas found himself hiding in the closet pulling the door closed and peering through the crack.

He had been right about Axel coming home, he stared as Axel all but charged into his room and immediately pulled his shirt up and off his head and tossing it to the floor. Roxas blushed and gawked at the man watching as he turned away from the closet ripped open the drawer containing the notepad and froze. Had Axel noticed something he had missed? He had put the notepad in the there correctly right?

Quickly an idea popped into his head that could explain his presence in the elders house. Grinning Roxas pushed the door open quietly and snuck up to the redhead with the intent of scaring him. Unfortunately Roxas wasn't as stealthy as he had hoped and his ankle made a loud snapping sound when he was arms reach to Axel and before he knew what hit him he was slammed up against the wall Axel's strong hand gripped tightly around his throat.

Blue crystals were locked on green in terror as Roxas attempted to suck in a breath, and loosening his grip a tad Axel leaned forward to Roxas his breath grazing the younger man's cheek. "Just what do you think you are doing in here?" Axel said venom dripping from his words.

"T-t-tttrrying to surprise you" he choked out as a reply fear reflecting in his eyes. Axel wasn't letting go, in fact his grip tightened again around Roxas's neck causing the boy to choke out as tears spilled down his cheeks. Cautiously Roxas reached out a trembling hand and gripped Axel's forearm.

Then just as quickly as it happened Axel lowered Roxas to the ground eyes full of regret and confusion. "Geeze Rox I'm sorry…. I don't do well when spooked I'm sorry… I just-" Axel frowned rubbing this thumb along Roxas's cheek gingerly wiping the tear.

Sucking in a breath Roxas stared dazingly at Axel's actions, the man slowly leaned down to Roxas's height before running his tongue along Roxas's cheek lapping up the tear causing the younger one to shudder. "A-aaxel?" Rox stuttered as the heat began to pool lower causing his mind to daze.

"I know you went through my book. How much did you read," Axel paused taking a step closer placing his long leg in between the youngers grinding gently against him. "And don't lie to me." Leaning down Axel nibbled on Roxas's earlobe gently pulling the skin in his mouth, breath tickling the ear.

"Not enough to understand just something about AHH-" Roxas gasped as Axel began biting the curve of his neck his mind fogging with pleasure as he placed his hands on Axel's shoulders in attempt to stop the shaking. "Dreams" he roughly moaned out hand flying to the redheads hair before burying the limb through the soft spikes grabbing a handful at the base of Axel's neck.

"Reno sent me over here to check on your since you aren't… answering…" A brunette stepped into Axel's room and gawked between the pair blue eyes stopping questingly on Axel. "So this is why, you've been busy"

"Terra…" Axel growled against Roxas's neck before standing to height, taking a step away from the dazed blond.

Placing his hands up in surrender Terra stepped out of the doorway closing the door behind him before he retreated out of the house.

Snapping back to reality Roxas stared stupidly at Axel erection twitching as he studied the redhead. What the fuck just happened?!

Took forever to get this one out for some reason. At least I finally thought of a plot! So hopefully from here it'll pick up! R&R
