Hope you enjoy!
We don't own FF/KH.

"So, why is it that everyone in this town goes crazy for Halloween, but Thanksgiving passes by without even a word?" Sora asked Riku as he drove down the street towards the college. Axel and Roxas were sitting in the backseat, but Sora was trying as hard as possible not to listen to them-Roxas was definitely trying to get back at him for the incident with the kissing after his kidnapping.
"Because Halloween is more fun?" Riku guessed. "I don't know and for the love of god! Will you guys stop already?"
Roxas snickered, but said innocently, "Stop what?"
"If you're going to be like that all night, we aren't staying with you. This is supposed to be fun!" Riku said.
Roxas sighed. "I am having fun. Aren't you having fun, being with Sora?"
"We aren't being obnoxious like you two!" Riku protested.
Roxas rolled his eyes. "Please. All you have to do is look at each other and the birds start singing and a rainbow appears. Saps."
"I'm perfectly happy to pull this car over, lock you two in with child safety lock, and then make out with Riku in the front." Sora shrugged, not taking his eyes off the road.
Roxas shuddered, moving back into his own seat but taking Axel's hand. "No thanks, I'll be good."
Riku laughed.
Axel chuckled, squeezing Roxas's hand as Sora smirked, victorious.
"So what are we doing, exactly?" Riku asked.
"If you'd paid attention instead of staring at my brother and picturing him naked, you'd know we're going to Pence's basketball game." Roxas muttered.
"What?" Riku asked.
"We're going to my friend's basketball game." Roxas smiled sweetly.
Axel laughed, squeezing Roxas's hand again, but decided that staying silent was the best option in this situation.
"Right." Riku said.
Sora parked the car near the gym and the four got out, Riku immediately reaching for Sora's hand.
Sora grabbed Riku's hand even as he locked his car door and they headed towards the gymnasium.
Roxas and Axel trailed behind them. "So when's the last time anyone's been to a game?" The blonde asked.
Sora glanced at Riku, "Err... before Riku graduated." he said, "I don't even remember. I think you dragged me to the last game I went to." he told his brother, thinking.
Axel shrugged, "That one time the volleyball team asked Larx to sub in for one of their injured members." he grinned, "Epic. Absolutely epic."
Roxas laughed. "Larxene? Why would they ask her?"
Axel laughed, "The other team had this really intimidating member on it and they didn't think anyone could out-intimidate Larx. They were right."
"I bet that was some game." Riku commented.
"Oh yeah!" Roxas added, before looking at Sora. "Yeah, I think I dragged you to Hayner's last game last year, when they were in the semi-finals."
"That sounds right." Sora nodded.
They entered the gym and Roxas glanced at Axel. "We'll get seats, you guys get food?"
"Sure." Riku shrugged, looking at Sora to make sure he was okay with that.
Sora nodded, "Sure, sounds good."
Axel smiled, and then led Roxas up into the stands to find seats.
Roxas followed him glancing around when he heard someone yelling his name, turning to see Kairi waving at him. Grabbing Axel, the pair headed over to Kairi and Namine, and their boyfriends, presumably.
"Hey, Kairi, Namine! You guys came to the game to? Sora and Riku are getting food." Roxas grinned.
Kairi grinned, "Yep! Needed to think of something to do for a double date that wasn't dinner this time." she shrugged, "Sora and Riku are here too?"
"Yeah, grabbing food. Xigbar, right?" Roxas said, grinning at him.
"Yup. How ya doing, Roxas?" Xigbar asked.
Roxas nodded. "Good. This is my boyfriend Axel."
"Cloud's roommate, right?" Xigbar asked, offering his hand.
"Yep." Axel said, shaking Xigbar's hand, "Hello, coworker who mostly handles paperwork."
Xigbar chuckled. "Yeah, yeah. You're a lucky bastard to have snagged this one." He gestured at Roxas with a grin, slipping his arm over Kairi's shoulder's to pull her close.
"Trust me, I know." Axel grinned, squeezing Roxas's hand.
Kairi leaned into Xigbar, "So, do you guys know Reno?"
"Only as Namine's boyfriend. Happy birthday, by the way. Like the cake?" Roxas asked, grinning at the redhead holding Namine.
"Definitely." Reno grinned, "Thanks so much." he said, "Was amazing." he squeezed Namine, "So, Roxas and Axel, right? Didn't you try and fire my brother at some point?" he asked the redhead.
"Only if your brother has silver hair and never comes to work." Axel shrugged.
"Hey, I sometimes go to work." Riku said from behind him. "Wow, everyone's here, huh?"
Namine laughed. "Apparently."
"Only when you get something besides a paycheck out of it." Reno laughed, "Hey." he nodded at Riku and Sora.
"So, what, are we on some weird quad date now?" Kairi asked, laughing as her best friend sat down, pulling his silver haired boyfriend with him.
"Seems that way." Sora shrugged, "Come to think of it, why is it that every time me, Riku, Axel, and Roxas are in the same place, you're there too?"
"Luck?" Kairi grinned.
"Hanging out with all the guys, huh, Red?" Xigbar teased.
"Bad luck, maybe." Roxas muttered, at which Riku smiled.
"See if I make you a costume next time." Kairi stuck her tongue out at Roxas even as she leaned into Xigbar a little more. Pausing, she whispered something to him.
"What costume?" Riku asked.
"Roxas's Halloween costume, of course. Kairi helped him." Namine explained.
"Oh. What did you end up being?" Riku asked.
Roxas blushed. "A bunny."
Axel grinned but didn't elaborate, putting his arm over Roxas's shoulders.
"Really? You didn't tell me you dressed up." Sora commented, "Actually, you didn't tell me much, you just sort of ran out the door like your costume was on fire and the only source of water was in Axel's car."
"I don't actually have a car." Axel shrugged, "I steal my roommate's."
"I'm sure Cloud could find you a decent ride. What's the hold-up?" Xigbar asked.
"I didn't run." Roxas muttered. "I just... walked really fast."
Axel shrugged, "Dunno. I never asked, I guess. Larx and I just end up sharing hers, and it's only a problem when I leave it in the Box Depot parking lot so that Riku's car can conveniently break down and both of us will need a ride back." he said.
Sora thought for a moment, and then glanced over at Riku. "Really? Really?"
Riku smiled sheepishly. "Well, yeah. But that's because Axel wanted help getting with Roxas!"
Roxas looked at his boyfriend. "Really? Really?"
"Damn, definitely tell you guys are related." Xigbar laughed and Namine nodded, amused.
"Yeah, well, what can I say, you're adorable." he shrugged, grinning at Roxas.
Kairi laughed, "But if only you could hear Sora's side of the phone conversation. It was a good thing I was there for that one."
Sora glared at her, "To hold the phone, you mean?"
"Don't want you killing yourself." she shrugged.
Roxas couldn't hold his glare and smiled, quickly kissing Axel.
"So why are you four here? Were you planning a double date as well?" Namine asked.
Riku nodded. "Yeah, we were. Didn't expect to end up being on a massive group date including my brother, though."
"Well, we were here first." Reno shrugged, "M'two years older than you for awhile, so that means you really have to listen to me."
"Nah, that just makes you a crazy old person that I ignore." Riku grinned.
Reno swatted at his brother, purposely missing, and turned to Sora, "Be careful with him. He's likely to lament his immaturity by drinking himself into a deep hole soon." He had no evidence with which to back up his statement (and Sora knew this well).
Riku rolled his eyes. "When have I ever done something like that? Sora, my brother is delusional. Ignore him, it's not his birthday anymore anyway."
Namine laughed. "C'mon, you two. Stop fighting, it's showing how much you love one another."
Riku paled, hugging Sora close. "Stop using your psych stuff on us."
Roxas rolled his eyes. "It's obvious - even I see it."
Kairi laughed, "Why is it that your household is the only one here that frequents attempted murder?" she asked her boyfriend.
"Aw, come on, Sass - you've met my roommates, right? Black and blue are the colors of caring at our place." Xigbar grinned.
Kairi laughed, "Oh, no, I completely understand that." she said, grinning at him. "Doesn't make it any less strange."
"I dunno, attempted murder happens at my place too." Axel shrugged.
"How often?" Kairi asked him.
He shrugged again, "Occasionally? Sometimes by accident."
"Nah, Xigbar's roommates beat you." Kairi shrugged.
"You know Leon and Seifer, they are always going at it." Xigbar chuckled.
Before Axel could comment on the name "Seifer" and how it seemed to be coming up in conversation a lot lately, Kairi piped in, "Yeah, with knives."
Deciding that exploding would be a bad idea, Axel glanced over at Roxas, "Seifer? Again?"
"Right. Xigbar and Seifer are roommates. I'm pretty sure Leon lives there, too." Roxas said.
"Yup, it's us three amigos." Xigbar said sarcastically.
Roxas leaned up to whisper in Axel's ear, "Don't freak, okay?" He nipped his boyfriend's earlobe, squeezing his hand.
Axel took a deep (albeit shaky) breath, "I'm fine. As long as he doesn't show up here I'm fine." he muttered back.
"Good." Roxas said, kissing his cheek.
"Sora, why is it that Roxas can kiss Axel around you but I can't kiss you around Roxas?" Riku asked.
Sora frowned, "No idea. Maybe he should explain it." He glanced over at his brother, "Backseat. Child safety lock. I will do it."
Roxas glared at him, squeezing Axel's hand. "Fiiine."
Namine giggled, leaning into Reno. "Isn't this fun?" She murmured.
Reno laughed, looking down at her, "Definitely." he murmured back, the position of his head meaning he didn't have to speak very loudly for her to hear him, "Thanks for inviting me along."
"Of course. It wouldn't be fun without you." Namine smiled.
Reno smiled back at her.
"All right, we could've chatted at a restaurant. Let's watch the game!" Xigbar said.
Roxas grinned, yelling, "Go Pence!".
Riku pulled Sora closer, watching the game and snacking on one of the pretzels they'd gotten. "Food?"
"Yeah, pass it out!" Roxas said, taking some and handing out the rest.
Kairi, never one to pass up free food, grabbed some as it passed her and leaned into Xigbar with a grin. "So, you like basketball?" she asked.
"Sure." Xigbar shrugged. "I like sports in general. Not that complicated. How about you, Red?"
Kairi shrugged, "Took karate for years." she said, "Beyond that, like to watch 'em, but can't actually play 'em."
"Karate, huh?" Xigbar said, eyeing her. "Sass, I'd love to see your skills sometime."
Kairi batted her eyes at him jokingly, "Oh would you?"
"Damn straight." Xigbar grinned, kissing her.
Kairi grinned into the kiss before leaning in.
"Hey, wait! How come the girls are allowed to kiss their boyfriends and I can't kiss mine?" Axel protested.
"Because the siblings here don't appreciate it." Riku said.
Namine laughed. "But I'm dating your brother!"
"Don't remind me." Riku groaned in mock horror.
Reno laughed, "Does that mean I can kiss Namine while we're here?" he asked, tilting his girlfriend's head and kissing her before anyone could answer.
"Reno! C'mon, stop it!" Riku protested, covering his eyes, begging Sora, "Tell me when it's over!"
Reno smirked, pulling back from Namine, "Hm. Interesting reaction. Will keep this in mind when he's being himself."
"AHA!" Kairi shouted, "He did kiss you that day, didn't he?" she asked her sister, practically climbing on top of Xigbar to get a good view of her face and make sure she wasn't going to lie to her.
Namine blushed, still staring up at Reno. "Wh-what?"
"Thank god." Riku muttered when Sora tapped him, glaring at his brother.
Reno laughed, and Kairi continued to stare at Namine, expecting an answer.
Xigbar shifted a little, readjusting his grip on Kairi so that they wouldn't topple over but managing to not grab her ass in public.
"Wellllllllll, did my calling Reno and forcing him to come over work?" Kairi interrogated her sister, only mildly aware of the fact that she was on top of Xigbar now.
Namine blinked, finally looking at Kairi. "I'm sorry, what are you asking?"
Kairi laughed, finally realizing what had happened, and decided to interrogate her sister about it later. Shaking her head, she smirked, "Never mind, never mind. You just answered my question."
Reno rolled his eyes, "Fair warning, Riku." he said, before kissing Namine again.
A smirking Kairi slid down so she was sitting more comfortably on Xigbar's lap, but didn't move off of it.
Xigbar wrapped his arms around her. "Okay, Red?"
"Yep." Kairi grinned at him, giving him a kiss on the cheek before leaning back against his chest.
"We are all a bunch of saps." Roxas declared, scooting closer to Axel.
Riku chuckled weakly. "Yeah." He buried his face in Sora's shoulder, mumbling, "Make them stop."
Sora patted his back, trying not to look at the two girls he'd grown up with and their boyfriends.
"All right. That's it. No more kissing until the game's over." Roxas declared.
Xigbar chuckled. "I think we can manage that, right, Sass?"
"Thank god." Riku muttered.
Reno pulled back from Namine, rolling his eyes, "Fiiine."
Roxas nodded. "Good."

Everyone filed out of the gym, laughing and talking about the game.
"Ah, man, that last shot! Wow!" Xigbar grinned.
"It was exciting!" Namine agreed.
Riku laughed. "Well, Sora's car is parked over here, so I guess we'll see you guys later."
A chorus of goodbyes and waves ensued as Kairi, Xigbar, Reno, and Namine went one way and Sora, Riku, Axel, and Roxas the other.
"That was fun." Roxas said, squeezing Axel's hand as they approached the car.
Axel grinned at him, "It was."
"Yeah. It's kinda cold, now, though. I didn't realize the game went so long." Riku said as he opened the car door.
Roxas tugged Axel's hand, stopping him from opening the backdoor. "Hey, do you want to walk home with me instead?"
Axel glanced at him, "Sure." he smiled.
Sora looked over at the two of them, "You sure? It's freezing."
Roxas nodded. "I'm sure. It's not a really long walk, anyway."
Sora shrugged, "Alright. See you later, then." he climbed into the driver's seat and a minute later, the car was pulling out of the parking lot.
Axel put his arm around Roxas's shoulders, "Warmer now?" he asked with a small smirk.
Roxas grinned. "Of course." They started walking. "It really is gorgeous out, if you can deal with the cold."
Axel chuckled, "Yeah. Can't believe it's almost December already."
"Yeah. The semester's almost over, and then it's a month of no classes and Christmas and New Years." Roxas smiled up at Axel, shifting closer.
Axel smiled back at him, "Yeah. Then you'll have tons of free time and I'll get to spend all my not-work time with you."
"If you don't get sick of me." Roxas teased.
"I could never get sick of you." Axel insisted, leaning down and giving him a kiss.
Roxas smiled, moving to stand in front of Axel without breaking the kiss, hands holding the redhead's shoulders. Pulling back, his smile widened. "I love you."
Axel smiled, "I love you too."
Roxas kissed him again, but jerked back when something cold and wet hit his cheek. "What?" He glanced up before laughing, "Axel! It's snowing!"
Axel looked up, and sure enough, white flakes of snow were starting to fall, steadily increasing with every passing minute. He grinned at Roxas, "No wonder it's so cold out." he chuckled.
Roxas grinned, face to the sky. "It's the first snow!"
Axel smiled, watching his boyfriend (and not the snow).
Roxas grabbed Axel's hands, forcing them to dance in a circle, laughing. Breathless, he looked up at Axel, smiling as he reached up to wipe some flakes from his hair. "You're getting covered in it."
"Well, so are you, it just shows in my hair better." Axel chuckled, shaking his head in an attempt to dislodge some of the white that was covering his usual red.
Roxas laughed, even as his fingertips burned with cold from the snow. He spun in a slow circle. "C'mon, Axel. It's the first snow. It's important!"
Axel laughed, grinning at Roxas and wrapping his arms around him from behind so the blonde was against his chest, "You're adorable."
Roxas tilted his head back so he could stare upside-down into Axel's eyes. "So are you, all covered in white." He chuckled, hands resting on Axel's around his waist.
Axel smiled at him, "What time are your classes tomorrow?"
Roxas grinned. "Why?"
"I think I'm gonna steal you for the night." he smirked.
Roxas's grin widened. "My one class tomorrow canceled and the other is an optional review session."
"Perfect." Axel grinned, giving Roxas a kiss, "We'll stop by your place to grab you some clothes and I'll call one of my roommates to pick us up." Pausing, he frowned, "Xigbar's right, I need a car." he groaned. "I actually just said 'I'll call one of my roommates to pick us up.'"
Roxas turned in Axel's arms and smirked. "Why would I need clothes?"
Axel laughed, leaning in and kissing Roxas again, "Well, I figured you wouldn't want to parade around my place completely naked if the others were there." he said in between kisses, "Not that I'd mind in the slightest."
"Are you saying you wouldn't let me borrow some of your clothes? Can't you picture me wearing one of your shirts - and only that shirt?" Roxas teased with a smile.
Axel leaned forward, burying his head in Roxas's shoulder, "You're killing me, you know that?" he asked, laughing.
Roxas patted his back in fake sympathy. "Sorry, Axel. Would you rather I kept my thoughts to myself and just... surprised you later?"
"No, you're more than welcome to continue talking." Axel said, "But I just can't promise not having my way with you right here in whoever-the-hell's front yard this is."
Roxas glanced around, grin widening. "Kairi and Namine's."
Axel laughed, "Go figure."
"C'mon, my house is only a few more down the street." Roxas said, taking Axel's hand even though it was freezing just like his. "The snow's dying out anyway."
Axel chuckled, "Alright." he said, squeezing Roxas's hand as they continued down the street.
