Title: I Write Sins, Not Tragedies (Part 1)
Disclaimer: The feels of not own KH are too real.
Music was pumping from my little dorm and Xion was the last to arrive. She was hesitant at the door when she saw Naminé, well the whole room stopped and Naminé's sigh filled the room. Naminé walked over to Xion and greeted her with a warm smile and took her by the hand to get her a drink. It was a good sight to see even though there was a little awkwardness attached. My best friend instincts were kicking in and I felt the need to stick near her and keep an eye on her. I was worried Naminé would fuck things even more and an upset girl at a party isn't the greatest thing.
"Hey Roxas!" Kiari called from the stereo with two other guys trailing behind her. "This is Sora" His hair was as crazy and gravity defying as mine, he was small and babyish but just as bubbly looking as Kiari. He had a simple plain black shirt and white skinnies. Sora greeted me and hung of the taller boy. "And this is Riku." Riku had straight, silver hair that just sat about his shoulder. His eyes reminded me of Axels; narrow and piercing. He waved and headed towards the makeshift bar in the kitchenette with Sora hanging off of him. Kiari had her hand up over her mouth as she giggled. "Yes, they are a couple." I think I looked uncertain, but I knew.
Axels arm wrapped around me from behind and kisses my ear and whispered "Tonight's going to be great, but I can't wait till they all leave" He kissed my check and headed towards Marluxia while Kiari walked over the where Sora and Riku were. I stood there for a little, not know what to do in my own dorm, everyone had their own groups and were talking and drinking amongst themselves. So, grabbing my smokes, I headed out the front for some peace. The winter air was just as cold and stung my face a little as I opened the packet. My cheeks turning a slight pink as well as my nose and I lit my smoke; the first drag is always the best. I let the cold air chase it down and held it for a second.
The door opened behind me and Marluxia and Sora came out. I'd never been alone with either of these two, well one was a new stranger to me and the other id met once before.
"What are you doing out here?" Sora's step even had a little dance it in. I liked him. "It's a little cold, isn't it?"
"Nah, I love the cold." Marluxia wrapped a scarf around my neck. "That's from Axel, by the way. He also wanted me to give you a kiss… But I don't think I'd be the same coming from me." His giggle was harmonious and he rolled his eyes at the thought. Sora thought it was funny too.
"Yea, nah, it wouldn't." The silence settled back in and Marluxia pulled out his smokes as well.
"Are you ok Roxas?" He lit his smoke and looked over at me with a slight concerned look on his face. I hated it when people butted into my life, but then again, isn't that what Axel did? I wasn't angry and it surprised me. Marluxia made me feel relaxed and Sora gave off the vibe he wasn't there to judge. Kudos to my people understanding skills.
"I'm just thinking about something Axel said."
"Which was?" I paused for a moment, not sure if I should say. "Look honey, Axel is my best friend and I've known him for a long time, and we both trust each other greatly. He's told me a lot about you." Marluxia features softened into a small smile, well I guess this is how you learn to trust people, right?"
"Axle said tonight was going to be great, but he can't wait till everyone leaves?"
"And what's wrong with that?" Sora spoke up and come to stand beside me.
"Well I don't know what that means…" I felt embarrassed.
"Don't sweat over it too much, honey. If he wants anything, he will wait till you're comfortable and ready. Axel's not the kind of person to force anything." I looked out in to the car park and nodded. If anyone was going to be honest about Axel, it'd be his best friend. So I took Marluxia's word and put out my smoke when the door flung open and Xion greeted me with an unreadable face. She pulled me inside and throw me in the bathroom.
"What's going on?" Xion locked the door behind her and just looked at me for a second.
"Naminé," Was all she could manage.
"Yea?" Her eyes were growing wide.
"She's like you!" Now I was confused. "She likes girls but her parents don't know and they're in town too!" Her arms were waving around like a mad woman and I laughed a little. Xion joined in and continued. "She was avoiding me because she didn't want her parents to know. Also, she has a favour to ask." Xion opened the door and whispered something to someone. I have no idea what these girls are up to, then Naminé entered the room.
"Uhm, what are you doing next Wednesday?" Naminé looked bashful has a small hopeful smile.
"Nothing. I don't have class or anything. Whys that?" Both girls looked ecstatic with my answered and Naminé proceeded.
"Would you accompany me to a family dinner? It's just for one night, I swear." Being a little taken back at the question, I considered it for a moment. Xion looked like she was going to explode any moment and Naminé's eyes were growing wide with anticipation. So I just sighed with a smile growing over my face and both girls throw their arms around me.
Axel was waiting for us outside of the bathroom and raised his eye brow in joking way.
"Wow, Roxas, two girl's aye? That's two more than most in this room." Xion and Naminé took it upon themselves to rub up against me stupidly and I grew red, so what did Axel do? Laugh. I was liking my little pod of people around me, even the new two I didn't know. It was enjoyable.
There was a knock at the door and Marluxia opened it for me, to reveal someone who resembled Sora, only his hair was fair darker, eyes weren't as wide and they were Yellow. He had stretchers and a lip piercing which made me bite mine back into my lip. He had a large grin and looked a little cocky, so walked up to him, with Axel right behind me.
"How may I help you?" His eyes watched me walk over towards him and it sent a chill down my spine.
A/N: Oooooh, Roxas' roommate has finally shown up! Yay! The only reason why I left it till this late cause I honestly had no idea who it was going to be and now I know so yay! And I wanted this and the next chapter to be a part of this one but, my fingers have a mind of their own and wanted to add a little Marluxia into it. Further down, Sora and Riku will be properly introduced, so don't worry SoRiku fans! I'm not forgetting them!
