CHAPTER 6

Cloud was freaking out by the time it was dinner. Demyx had not shown up when he and Reno left for Axel's house after making some soup. Cloud stayed at the school to take care of some "business" with Leon. Demyx never called or went to him to tell him he was gonna be late or where Axel lived. So yeah, the older blond had a right to freak out about his younger brother.

It was even the next morning and the young blond still hadn't showed up. If that redhead even as much hurt a hair on the blond's head, Cloud was gonna kill him. Oh, why didn't he buy a cell phone for his younger brother? Well, that's all about to change here pretty soon.

Cloud was late for his gym class and he knew Leon was gonna lecture him about that. Hopefully, the brunette will help the blond settle down enough to think things through more clearly. Right now, all he could think of was death, hurt somewhere, and lost.

So he swallowed his anxiousness and left for the school. There, he ran all the way to the gym and burst in, making some of the boys jump. The blond hoped all the way to the gym that his brother was there, but to his surprise, the young blond wasn't. He asked around if anyone saw him, but they said that neither Demyx nor Axel showed up.

This made Cloud want to rip his hair out. Leon started the kids on dodge ball so he could talk to the poor freaking out blond. The brunette asked what was wrong and Cloud told him everything. Leon didn't seem all that worried and this made the blond calm down some.

"So you haven't seen him at all?" Cloud asked worriedly, starting to get on Leon's nerves.

"No, no one saw him today. You said he was with Axel, right?" The brunette grumbled.

"Yes, Reno told me."

"Then I'm sure he's ok."

"But it's Axel."

"Yeah, and?"

"The guy has been a pain in the ass towards Demyx!" Cloud shouted, causing heads to turn towards them.

"Only for two days. The rest of the month, he stayed away from the kid. When he finds that the new kids can get ass and fight back, he leaves them alone for a while for trying to become friends them. But they usually turn the offer down. But it doesn't seem like Demyx will though. He's a good kid, Cloud; Axel wouldn't have done anything to him."

"I guess you're right…" the blond sighed, shoulders slumping and head looking down.

The brunette placed a hand on the blond's shoulder, making him look up and Leon smiled small. "I'm sure they're both alright; he'll be back by the end of the day, I guarantee it."

Cloud smiled back slightly. "Thanks."

"My pleasure. I have a question to ask." The brunette suddenly looked nervous and was blushing as he stared at the blond.

"Yes?"

Leon scratched his cheek. "Well, I was wondering… if you would like to go to dinner tonight. And I mean like on a date…"

Cloud blushed as he looked at the older guy in front of him, eyes wide. He let out a small sigh. "Can we talk under the bleachers for more privacy?"

"Sure."

They both walk under the bleachers, giving them enough privacy since the students were too busy beating each other up with balls. When they far enough into the bleachers, Cloud pushed the brunette into the wall and kissed him. He placed his hands in Leon's hair and begged for entrance with his tongue.

Leon was surprised at first and went with it since all thoughts have left the building. He closed his eyes and allowed the blond to enter his tongue, moaning at how long and smooth the guy's tongue was when it entered his mouth. Leon placed his hands on the blond's shoulder and couldn't help but moan when Cloud left his lips and started to nip at his neck.

"I thought I was gonna be the alpha male in this relationship," the brunette groaned out, turning his neck to the side to give his new lover more access. He started to pant when the blond found a sensitive patch of skin right behind his ear. Cloud smirked and suck hard, making Leon stifle back a loud moan.

"You wanna bet?" the blond dared, taking another suck.

"N-no, I actually like to be dominated here and there. But no one was really good at."

"How am I doing?"

"Oooh, fuck… much, much better then those losers. You're much prettier and more dominate then them. A little more down just under my ear, that's my favorite spot to be played with."

Cloud chuckled, but obeyed as he grabbed the front of Leon's pants. "I thought this was your favorite spot to be played with?"

"You know what I meant," the brunette growled before moaning when the blond started to rub his growing erection. "We need to stop before this gets out of control. Besides, we just met and need to wait until after we have our date."

"After our date tonight, then do I get to fuck you?"

"Yes, but don't fuck me if you're just gonna leave right afterwards."

Cloud stopped what he was doing and looked at the brunette with serious eyes. "That's not gonna happen. I know I'm being a little straight forward, but… I'm willing to make this relationship work if you're willing too."

Leon looked like he was about to cry. "Thank you."

The blond half smiled and pulled his lover into a hug, kissing the top of his brown hair. They will make this work.


(Axel's house)

Axel nuzzled into the smooth heat that was in front of his face, liking the softness against his face. His eyes opened and he smiled when he saw that he was looking into Demyx's back, remembering what happened last night. He kissed the birth mark on the left shoulder blade, giving a few licks and nips. The blond moaned softly in his sleep, moving slightly in his sleep.

The redhead smirked and moved soft kisses up to the blond's neck, latching onto one of the hickies he made last night. Demyx moaned louder, but still did not wake. He did move though towards the cause of his pleasure. Axel chuckled into the blond's neck and lavished under Demyx's jaw. This finally woke up the blond.

"Stoooopppp," Demyx moaned sleepily, a small smile placed on his flushed cheeks. Axel did not stop.

"Not until you get up my little ball of sunshine. We have a lot of explaining to do to your brother. And school is almost out. You need to bathe," the redhead said with a grin.

"I knew what you were trying to do; I just wanted to see how far I could go before I got too comfortable with you pleasuring me like this," the blond replied, turning around to face his new lover.

"So…"

"So… are we a … couple?"

"I wouldn't mind trying that out. But I might be lousy at picking dates."

Demyx giggle, pecking Axel's lips. "Just pick a spot where you think is fun. That's basically the whole point. So where should we go for our first date tomorrow or tonight?"

"Hmmm… well, I like to snowboard. We could go up to my uncle's cabin for the weekend since tomorrow is Friday. Then we could come back on Sunday. It's only a few hours drive up to the skiing lodge."

Demyx closed his eyes and smiled at the thought of going to a cabin and seeing snow. "That sounds like an exciting idea. We could get to know each other more and maybe do a few more times of what we just did last night. I wouldn't mind."

"I wouldn't mind either." Axel smirked as he sat up on his elbow, looking down at his lover before kissing the blond deeply. Demyx took the kiss with a smile.

Demyx broke the kiss. "But we have to explain to Cloud what happened last night. He's not gonna be thrilled."

"Just leave me to the talking."

"I don't think so. He'll ask you questions then start interrogating me, forgetting all about you. He's done that before, but me and my ex-boyfriend never made it this far."

"Ex-boyfriend? Should I be jealous?" Axel smirked.

The blond giggled. "No, the guy was a total fruit and a loser. He left after two days. Said he couldn't handle my brother."

"Don't worry; it'll take a lot more than that to pull me away from you."

"I hope so…"


(Demyx's house)

"It looks like he's home," Axel said as he drove up into the drive way behind the old truck.

"No duh, Sherlock," Demyx said with a grin, earning a glare from the redhead.

"Let's just get this over with."

Axel help Demyx get out of his crappy car before they headed up to the door. The redhead checked to see if it was unlocked and was happy that it was: he didn't want to have to break in or anything. Opening it, he let the blond in first and closing it after he stepped in.

"Cloud, I'm home!" The blond called out, talking off his shoes before entering into the kitchen, Axel behind him, carrying his stuff. Entering the living room, they stopped when they saw an angry Cloud sitting on the recliner.

"Sit," the older blond ordered.

They sat down across from him on the love seat, scared to deny the older blond's hissed demand. Cloud glared at them, looking back and forth. His eyes stopped when he saw the hickie just under the blond's jaw. He turned his glare towards the redhead, scaring the shit out of the tall redhead.

"Where were you last night, Demyx?" He demanded more than asked, not taking his eyes off of Axel.

"At Axels," the young blond replied without flinching, obviously used to it. "And if you're wondering, we did have sex last night."

Cloud's face flared, eyes going wide. He opened his mouth to speak but Demyx beat him to it.

"But don't worry; it wasn't just a simple fuck, we're together now."

"Don't worry? Don't worry?!" Cloud snarled. He suddenly stood up and walked towards the hallway, expecting his younger brother to follow.

Demyx got up from the couch and motioned for Axel to stay, following after Cloud. In the hallway, Cloud glared at his brother.

"Listen, I don't mind that you two are a couple, but I do mind that you two had sex," he hissed quietly.

"What's the big deal? We're both clean, he told me this morning," the young blond hissed back.

"That's not it…"

"Then was it?"

"Did he cum in you?"

"No."

"Well, what I'm about to say here might disturb you… you see… we Strifes can get pregnant."

Demyx eyes went wide and he gulped. "How is that possible?"

"A long time ago, our great, great grandfather was used for a mako test subject, willingly, but something went wrong and he was able to get pregnant. After that, it was passed on for years. Even I could get pregnant, that's why I'm always dominate. Just be extra careful when you and Axel have sex, k?"

Demyx nodded and smiled a knowing smile that made Cloud sigh and close his eyes.

"What do you want this time?" He groaned.

"Well, Axel wants to take me out to his uncle's cabin tomorrow and go snowboarding at the skiing lodge."

The older blond thought for a moment before letting out a heavy sigh. "Fine, just use protection."

"Fine, fine."

"Good. Now if you'll excuse me, I need to get ready for my date with Leon."

Demyx grinned and followed after his older brother to the living room and into the kitchen as he said, "You finally have a date with Leon?"

Axel overheard and laughed. "Blondie and emo king?"

"Shut it," Cloud growled from the kitchen, shoving his brother to the living where Axel was waiting for him.

Demyx chuckled and hopped joyously towards his lover, unsuspectingly jumping across the redhead's lap. Axel oofed and smirked as he wrapped his arms around his blond.

"So what did blondy say?" he asked, nuzzling into the blond's neck.

"He said he wants us to be careful when having sex and that I could go with you to the skiing lodge," Demyx replied, leaning against the redhead's chest. "I'm glad you got better today and no longer sick."

"All the sweating from the fun we had helped wonders."

The blond blushed and turned his head into Axel's neck to hide it. "Don't say things like that! It's embarrassing!"

Cloud watched from the kitchen doorway and smiled at the embarrassing moment. Glad about their relationship. He watched a few more minutes before getting ready for his date for tonight.


A/N: sorry it took for the next chapter longer to come out. I was up in Anchorage for two days and got to see a F22 Raptor (awesome airplane) at the navy base there. Then I went to ABT (Anchorage Baptist Temple) to see Rush of Fools play, Brock Gill (illusionist), and some ventriloquist that was hilarious. Then I spent the night at a friend's house the day after when me and my youth group got back. It was a pretty cool weekend. I hope you all enjoy the story so far. Review!
