Hey guys, sorry this took way longer than it should've. I didn't know what to write for this chapter so I did a filler but lost it since my computer went poop on me. So now I wrote the chapter I wanted to (this isn't filler). Thank you to all the reviews that I can't respond to personally since some don't have accounts and are just guests. Also, there's a trigger warning in this chapter. If you get triggered easily please skip it! I don't want to end up unintentionally harming someone's mental status. Thank you. What you missed in the trigger warning if you skip it will be addressed in less detail in the next chapter.
Also if there are any mistakes in this please feel free to tell me so I can fix it! Reading through some old chapters I've found a lot and I've fixed some of them. I wrote this on my tablet so my autocorrect may have annoyingly messed up a name or a word.
Thank you and enjoy.

46. Violated
"Sora, honey." Rinoa chimed before walking into Sora's room. She was surprised to notice the brunette was sleeping and decided to gently shake him awake. "Wake up sleepyhead." She said in a light tone.
"Hngg, what is it Mom?" Sora groaned, turning over into his pillow.
"I'm heading out with a few of my girlfriends," Rinoa reached into her purse, searching for something. "So I'm going to give you some money for food. Also, did you forget Riku was coming over?"
"Riku?!" The brunette jumped up. "Is he here yet?!"
"No no, Sora," Rinoa laughed as she put a hand on his shoulder. "Here's some money for you to get food. Make sure you lock the door when Riku arrives alright? Don't forget."
Sora took the money and pushed it in the pocket of jus shorts. "I won't forget."
"I'm not sure when I'll be back," his mother said as she exited the room. "Just be safe!"
"Okay, okay!" Sora sat in the end of his bed and decided to check his phone. How could he possibly fall asleep within about an hour of texting Riku to come over? The latest message he had gotten from Riku read 'sorry…but I'm gonna be a little late' – 20 minutes ago.
Riku found it surprisingly hard to get Ventus home. After struggling with him for the first ten minutes he almost considered leaving him there. How could Terra even do this? 'Don't worry about it.' The snow-head told himself.
"I don't want to go," Ventus yelled, pulling against Riku who was dragging him behind. One hand was still covered over part of his face. "Roxas is going to murder me!"
"You're being childish."
"I'm getting…ugh-tired of of people telling me about myself…argh-and how I should be!" Ventus said amidst the struggle.
"You're not the only one with problems," the snow-head found himself beginning to get aggravated. "Everyone has problems! And if you think Roxas is the worst brother, why don't you trade with me and take three of mine? Heck, I wish we could trade just as easy as you and Roxas do all the time. But that's impossible. And right now you're keeping me from seeing one of the only people that really matter to me. I don't know why Terra hit you, but I'm beginning to understand."
Suddenly Ventus stopped struggling against Riku and instead began to lead him. He didn't say anything more.
Sora paced around the living room of his house, hoping with one leg and crutches. "Riku is coming over," he smiled to himself. "And we're going to be alone…" From the blush on his cheeks you could almost imagine the hearts coming out of his hair.
He stopped his pacing once he felt his phone vibrate in his pocket. He took it out of his pocket and saw it was a phone call. "Beat?"
"Hello?" He answered as he sat down on the couch.
"Hey, Sora! What are you up to," Beat asked. "You busy?"
"I'm sorry but I am. Whats up though?"
"I thought we could possibly hang out tonight."
"I can't. Riku's coming over and I-"
"Sora, I can't believe you're really with that guy to be honest. He's bad news for you."
The brunette sighed, slouching down further into the couch. "What do you mean Beat? You don't even know him."
"Yeah but I know you, Sora. You should come hang out with me tonight, like before."
What was that even supposed to mean? "You mean like before when you-"
"No no," Beat quickly jumped in. "Better than before…"
Sora laughed. "Either way I can't. I'm on crutches. I broke my ankle during my last game."
"Well you can still hop on over," Beat joked, making Sora giggle. He missed this kid. "Hey…is Axel still around? You remember, the tall skinny guy. Red hair."
"He can't give you any, Beat…"
"Look, just come over at three."
"What?"
"Three A.M., be at my house."
"I have school tomorrow."
"I'll see you at threeeee." Sora could almost hear the smile on Beat's face from the other end.
"Alright," Sora gave in. "Just meet me half way. And I don't know how I'll be able to sneak out with one leg."
"You'll figure something out."
"You don't have to walk me in…" Ventus told Riku. They were standing at the beginning of the pathway leading to the door to his house.
"I'll wait here," the snow-head put his hands in his pockets. "Just to make sure you don't do something stupid."
Although Riku couldn't see it, Ven smiled just a bit before giving him a quick hug and jogging off to the door. After pushing the doorbell about three times, Roxas finally unlocked the door to which Ven rushed past him, knocking into his shoulder. He noticed Riku at the end of the pathway and watched as the snow-head waved to him with one hand in his pocket.
Roxas rolled his eyes before turning back inside and shutting the door. He heard his mom freaking out about something from the bathroom and decided to go check. As he approached the open door he saw Ventus trying to wash off his face with their Mom frantically trying to get a look.
"Roxas," She yelled. "Do you know what happened?!"
"Mom please stop." Ven said. By now he was done washing his face and was just leaning over the sink.
"No, I'm not going to stop until you tell me what happened," She reached for his shoulder. "And I want the truth! You and Roxas have a habit of lying to me! That being said, Roxas do you know what happened or not? If you don't tell me right now, you're grounded!"
"What," the blonde retorted. "But I didn't do anything! I don't even know what's wrong with him. He came rushing through the door!"
"I got into an argument with Terra and he got really upset and hit me…"
"Terra, the sweet one?"
"He's obviously not that sweet."
"Let me see your face again," their mom said. Ventus looked up at her and Roxas, to whom he noticed cringed. "It's swelling even more C'mon,. I'm taking you to the hospital."
"No I'm not going to the hospital."
"You need to!"
"Please, Mom! I don't want to go! All they're going to do is keep me there for hours!"
Roxas stood there and watched his mom and brother argue back and forth before chiming in. "Mom, he doesn't need to go to the hospital," he said. "You're babying him."
"He's my baby, of course I'm babying him!"
"When I was hurt you didn't think twice about it." Roxas stated.
"You're tougher than him."
"Mom please, I'm tired. I just want to sleep." Ventus said.
"You're tired? What if you have a concussion?!"
"He doesn't have a concussion." Roxas crossed his arms, beginning to get annoyed.
Their mom was quiet for a bit. "Fine. Go change your clothes and lye down," she decided. "Roxas, go and get him some ice."
The blonde groaned, rolling his eyes before making his way downstairs into the kitchen. He didn't see why he had to help. That was the last thing he wanted to do. Help the person who had aggravated him all day. But he got the ice and went into Ven's room. The room was dark, just a little light from the window coming in. Ven was already in his bed and pulled under his covers. Roxas closed the door behind him and sat on the edge of the bed.
"Did Terra really hit you?" He asked.
Ventus pulled the blankets from his face, looking over at Roxas. He handed him the ice. "Yeah."
Roxas laughed. "You de-fucking-served it." He said sourly.
Ven turned over, back under his covers. "Go away." He could feel the tears dwelling up in his eyes. How could he think for a second Roxas was going to be genuinely nice to him?
"You know Ven," he continued. "If you act like a slut, doesn't that make you one?"
"Riku," Sora just got done throwing something in the wash. "How come you won't tell me why you had blood on your shirt?" The snow-head had arrived at his house about ten minutes ago. It was hard to find him a new shirt at first, considering the size difference of the two. But luckily, Sora had a shirt that was way to big for him.
"You won't believe me unless you see it for yourself." Riku was sited at the kitchen counter.
"That sounds suspicious," the brunette suddenly frowned. "Did you get into a fight?!"
Riku laughed. "No sora." He laughed.
Sora pursed his lips, "Tellll meee." He whined walking up to Riku's chair.
"How about we continue this date, that you know um," Riku cleared his throat. "Someone ruined!" He teased.
Sora made a sad face before letting the topic go. "Oh yeah, I got a text from Kairi," he said. "She wants us to go to this abandoned mansion in Twilight Town with everyone next weekend."
"Alright," Riku agreed to it. "On Friday evening though, we have a ceremony to attend for blitzball."
"Wow, I get to attend one of those?"
"Yeah of course."
"You gonna admit how much of a better player I am than you?" Sora grinned.
"Well if I were to, that would be a bold faced lie."
"It's okay I know you're just jealous!"
Riku got up from his chair, now looking down at the brunette. "Oh really?" He smiled as Sora tried to back away. Riku grabbed a hold of the brunette and him a kiss. And oh, it felt it too good that Sora was urged to kiss back. So he did. Soon he found himself backed up against a wall. The sensations were different. With each kiss Sora could feel the soft brushes of Riku's hair against his cheeks, and when Riku put his hands up his shirt he almost shivered to the touch. He wanted this with Riku badly. But something crept up on his mind.
"Riku…" He said, his eyes now opened as he tried to stop the snow-head from kissing him any further. But Riku just began to kiss at his neck, making Sora blush. "There's something I need to tell you."
"Just tell me later." Riku said.
"N-no, I need to tell you now," Sora explained. "It's -"
Riku's phone began to ring. Sora heard the snow-head murmur a curse before looking at the caller ID. "It's my Dad," he moved away from Sora, answering the phone. "Yeah?"
Sora began to panic in his head. How should he say what he has to? What if Riku gets mad. "What if he hates me..?" He thought.
Riku hung up the phone. "I have to go." He said.
"How come?"
"He wants me home and if I don't listen I won't have a home."
"What about your shirt?"
"Just give it to me tomorrow," he gave Sora one last kiss. "I want you to know that you mean a lot to me…okay?"
"You mean a lot to me too, Riku." The brunette smiled.
******TRIGGER WARNING*********
Roxas stood in the shower, letting the hot water run over him. His hair laid limp and matted around his face. "Maybe I should tell Axel." He thought. These lies were becoming too big for him to handle. But if they were too big for him, wouldn't they be too big for Axel too? And what if Axel actually liked Ventus better? He was much more fun…much more laid back…oh no. Roxas knelt down in the shower, head held within his hands. He was crying. He was having those same thoughts as earlier. But he was alone this time.
He took one of the razors in the shower and broke off a blade. He held it against the side of his stomach, by his hips. Slowly he cut at it. It stung, but it felt relieving. He did a couple more gashes.
"Axel is going to hate me…" he cried to himself.
*******END WARNING******
Riku unlocked the door to his house. He really didn't want to be here in this moment, but had no choice.
"Riku," his mother greeted him with a hug. "You're here!" She smiled.
"Yeah, dad called me to come home."
"That's right, we're having a family dinner," Yeul said. "Let's go sit down, everything is already set up."
She ushered him into the dining room where he saw his dad and his brothers sitting, waiting for him. As well as someone else.
"Riku's finally here." Sephiroth said.
Riku wanted to leave as quickly as possible. Suddenly not having a home felt much better than sitting at a table with most of the people who made his life a living nightmare.
"Hurry up and sit down," his father said. "We've been waiting for almost half an hour now."
"Yeah sorry." Riku murmured, raking his fingers through the side of his hair. He took the only empty seat which was thankfully next to Loz. Their mother made them say a prayer before eating the food she made.
Riku felt bad that he wasn't really hungry. Any appetite he had left as soon as he saw Seph at the table. Why was he here anyway.
"Is there a reason why we're doing this?" Riku asked. His father gave him a look before answering.
"Actually, there is," he said as he stuck a fork into some of his food. "Seph, do you want to inform everyone?" He smiled at him. Riku wanted to puke.
"Well, since my mom is going to be away on business most of the beginning of next year," Seph said. "I'm going to be staying here and attending DWHS for the rest of my senior year after winter break."
"You're joking!" Riku faked an excited tone into his voice. He really wanted to puke.
"Oh he isn't." Yazoo smiled.
"We're going to be an even bigger happy family now!" Kadaj teased.
"Also this is a small celebration for Seph winning the game." Their father said.
"Yeah cause that's all you care about." Riku got up frustrated.
"Riku," their dad was annoyed, but he faked a smile anyway. "Please sit down."
"No! You're only doing this because you hate me! And now that he won the tournament you finally have a much better son you would rather look after!"
Their dad stood up. "Well maybe if you got your act together It wouldn't look that way, would it," he yelled. "Now sit down!" Everyone at the table sat quietly. Save for the few giggles let out by Kadaj and Yazoo.
Riku felt Loz put a hand on his wrist, as if to comfort him. But he also pulled on it gently, trying to tell Riku to sit. Which he did.
It was two-thirty in the morning. Sora couldn't remember the last time he actually stayed up this late. He made sure to text Kairi and Pence to not come and get him in the morning. He had decided to just bring his school uniform in his backpack with him. He looked out the window at the large tree so conveniently placed there. He's used it to sneak out a couple times before, but with a broken leg this looked ten times more difficult.
He threw his back pack down and then placed his crutches on to some of the branches of the tree. After praying that his clumsy tendencies wouldn't ruin this, he reach out to grab a strong branch and used his good leg to step up on the window sill and push him out. Once he got outside, he closed the window and slowly brought himself and his crutches down. Thank god he made it in one piece.
He put on his back pack and began to head to Beat's, who hopefully remember to meet him half way.
And he did.
"You alright?" The blonde asked, looking down at Sora's leg.
"Yeah," Sora said tiringly. All he wanted to do was sleep. They were on their way to Beat's house. "This is pretty nostalgic."
"Never thought I'd get to hang out with you like this ever again," Beat admitted. "And it was only a couple years ago, nostalgic my butt!"
Sora laughed. When they got to Beat's house they snuck in through the window. Thankfully, Beat's room was on the first floor.
"So," Sora sat down on the mattress that was in the floor. Beat didn't have a bed frame, he never has from as long as Sora knew him. "What did you want to do?"
"Catch up I guess." Beat sat beside him, hugging one of his knees.
Sora was quiet for a bit, but then began to explain the story of his life ever since Beat was taken out of it. "I was alone for a while. The whole summer I really did nothing because I had no one to hang out with. But after that…when I got into high school I became friends with Roxas and Kairi, Hayner…Pence, Olette, and even Axel! They were all so nice."
"You're friends with Roxas," Beat laughed. "I remember that guy. He always had an attitude."
"Yeah but he's really different from how he portrays himself," Sora explained. "We became really good friends, more with each other than with the others."
"Ohhh really good friends?" Beat jokingly raised a brow.
The brunette nudged him. "Nooo, not like that," he giggled. "Anyway, we were really good friends until this year. He spends a lot more time with Axel now and I guess I spend more time with Riku."
"Axel does have a thing for crazy blondes," Beat laid down on the bed, looking up at the ceiling. Sora followed suit. "So what about you and Riku?"
"Riku's my boyfriend."
"Does he know you're here right now?"
"No…I don't know how he'd feel about this."
Beat sat up and pulled something out of his pocket along with a lighter. Sora's could see the flame from his peripheral. "You want one?"
The brunette quickly came up. "Beat," he said in a hushed yell, not wanting to wake up anyone of Beat's family members. "You said this was different from before!"
"It's just weed Sora," Beat took a hit before handing the roll to Sora. "C'mon, I know you've changed but you know it's harmless."
Sora sighed with hesitation before taking a hit. He really didn't know how Riku would feel about this. "Do me a favor and don't tell anyone." He said to Beat as he was lighting one for himself.
"I won't." Beat got up and stuff the crack underneath his door with a towel.
Before they knew it, it was was five am and they were saying the silliest things to each other and laughing about absolute nonsense. But Beat was way more intoxicated * than Sora, having spoken way more than he should've.
"Y'know Sora," he laughed. "All while I was in my psycho-home I couldn't help but think about you." He giggled even more, finding some humor in what he was saying.
"Really?" Sora smirked.
"Yeaaa, all the time I would think about how I didn't kiss you." He looked at the surprised look on Sora's face and laughed. "You know," he began to get closer to the brunette. "I always thought I would get to bang you before Riku."
"What?" Sora laughed just a bit before being caught off guard by Beat forcing lips upon his. The brunette didn't know what to do and he began to panic, pushing Beat away from him. "Beat, cut it out…" he said.
"C'mon Sora, that idiots going to break your heart," Beat said. "I wouldn't ever."
"You're doing a pretty good job at breaking it right now." Sora got up and reached for his crutches.
He felt completely violated. Did Beat plan this? Did he really think Sora was that vulnerable. No…Sora was thinking too much about it. He knew Beat, and Beat wouldn't hurt him. He was just high.
"Sora," Beat began to cry. "Don't leave…I'm sorry." He laughed a little in between. It was hard to tell what Beat was feeling.
The brunette realized he couldn't go home anyway. Climbing up the tree was impossible for him. Sora sat back down on the opposite side of the bed and quickly set an alarm on his phone. "Let's just go to sleep okay?"
Beat laughed. "You always come back, Sora."
The brunette ignored it and just laid down.
