Kingdom Hearts Fan Fiction ❯ Dances of Denial ❯ Notice the Differences ( Chapter 10 )

Woot! Another chapter!

:3 Mainly because I got nearly sixty comments in less than twenty four hours (which makes me feel totally special by the way XD)

 

And because I'm bored

 

Sooo, here's chapter ten! (One more chapter and this makes it the longest story I've ever written and stuck to)

 

Oh yes, and due to confusion on point of view, I guess I'll be putting in the little lines. Seeing as how here I could just skip a few lines but fanfiction.net's format won't let me…

“Cloud…”

Cloud only smirked. “Oh god was the clichéd”

Leon laughed slightly, resisting the urge to touch his lips which were left with a slight tingly sensation. He looked up at the grinning blonde before raising an eyebrow.

“However clichéd that was…why the hell did you do it?” So accusatory, he internally winced. Hey, he just wasn't that much of a people person.

Cloud shrugged. “You wouldn't stop calling me chocobo.”

Leon smirked. “Aww but you're such a cute—“

He was once again silenced by Cloud's lips, which he had to admit, he liked. It gave him an incentive to call the blonde by his dreaded nickname more often. They fell back in to silence as they thoughtfully sipped on their caffeinated drinks. No more than a day. No more than a fucking day had he know Cloud Strife, and he had kissed him. In all honesty at meeting Sora it took a while before he had opened up to the younger male. He resisted the urge to sigh as he looked back up over the rim of his foam cup. Cloud was staring off into the distance presented by the window. He could call Cloud beautiful. And physically he was. Soft bright blonde hair that stuck up in odd directions, it literally defied all gravity, captivating green eyes that always seemed to hint the sarcasm-laced comment he was about dish out, and that skin. He was assured that it was just as soft as his hair. His eyes wandered down to the open collar of the shirt, exposing Cloud's long thin neck. It was pale and unmarred. Yet his personality was that of a spoiled teenager almost. Sarcastic, teasing, nonchalant.

“Squall…”

The brunette shook his head slightly. “Huh?” Oh right, very intelligent.

Cloud snorted as he shook his head. “You looked about ready to drool.”

A small flush of pink spread across Leon's slightly tanned face.

“Like something you see?” The arrogant blonde sat back on the chair, reclining it so the back legs supported his weight.

“Pfft. Nah, I like them smaller.” He smirked. The slight problem being Cloud was smaller than him.

“I am smaller…”

There was an embarrassed pause before the brunette coughed. “…” He was at loss for words.

“Shut up.”

As the third hour neared Roxas held himself closer to his cousin who remained on the floor. They were lying there, uncomfortable against the hardwood tiles. Sora's eyes fixated on the lights hung from the ceiling, or was he counting the holes again. Roxas nuzzled his hair against the brunette's neck, feeling him shudder slightly.

“I don't want to go Sora…”

He sighed. “You have to…just think of it as being the stronger one.”

Roxas tilted his head slightly. “How?”

“Pretend that it's not bothering you as much as it is…that you'll move on.”

The blonde nipped at Sora's neck. “Then won't he give up too?”

Sora shrugged. “Maybe…”

The nipping continued. “You're horrible at advice.”

“I know…now keep doing that.”

Soft moans soon followed.

Came and went the third hour, and student poured in and out of the Music Theory classroom. Axel's spikes seemed to droop as he ambled out. Not once did he spot Roxas. He turned to face Demyx who had a silly grin plastered onto his face. He smiled halfheartedly. Maybe he was with his idiot cousin…again. His green eyes scanned the campus around him, perhaps hoping to catch a glimpse of the short blonde. In his frantic eye movements he had spotted silver hair. Where there was Riku, there was Sora…and so on.

Moving in that direction with Demyx clinging to his arm obliviously he followed whom he deemed as Riku…until he had seen the length. Down to his knees, tall, muscular, the redhead could only guess at the godly facial features this man most likely had. Sighing he began to treck the other way.

“Axel, as much as I wanna follow you around all day,” Came the melodic voice of the man next to him, “I gotta get to class.”

Axel smiled sheepishly and relinquished his grip on Demyx's arm. “I'll see you later then.” He pecked the blonde on the lips before walking off.

I'm sorry Roxas…I really am…

He could honestly say, it was difficult to stay mad at him.

“You ditched.” Sora giggled.

Roxas shrugged. “It was worth ditching.”

The brunette let out a content sigh as he rolled back onto his naked cousin.

“Think you wanna ditch for the rest of the day?” He purred, rubbing himself slightly against Roxas, relishing in the gasp he elicited from him.

There was a slight smack as the blonde rolled over and pinned the boy beneath him.

“Sure…but honestly, once on the dance floor is fine but twice, I fear you won't be able to move.”

Sora giggled sitting up and stretching, opening an eye and smirking internally as he found his cousin staring avidly at his body.

“You know we look a lot alike…” The brunette mused as he stared at them in the mirror.

Roxas shrugged. “There are prominent differences…” Axel had told him that once. Sighing he stood up, walking around retrieving their carelessly discarded clothes.

“Like what?”

He looked over at his cousin and sat beside him, laying down the clothes in front. He looked at the mirror they sat so close to.

“You see your eyes?”

“Yeah…”

“They maybe the same shape…but if you look closer, mine are a bit more ..blue.” It was the only way he knew how to describe it. Sora nodded. Apparently it would have been the only way he knew how to describe it as well.

“And our noses…mine is a bit smaller…more pointed.”

He fondly poked his cousin's nose, who wiggled it in return, smiling. “I guess you're right.” He nodded.

Ruffling Sora's hair slightly he smiled. “Alright…enough of that.” He handed Sora his clothes. “Let's go back to your dorm…”

He still feared Axel following him to his own…though at this point it would have been very welcome.

“Okay!”

“So then, Selphie said: No shit, really!? And I was like: totally!”

Riku rolled his eyes, his hands quickly moving up and down below the table, cell phone flipped open.

“And then Tidus comes up and like sits on Selphies lap…”

Like he cared about how the hell these people were. Look down at the glowing screen he seemed satisfied with his message before he pressed the ok button. `Cloud HELP ME'

“Uh huh..” It was the polite boyfriend thing to do.

“I know! So I was like `ew'”

He jumped slightly as his pocket vibrated, staring at the screen with contempt. `Sorry kid, busy' What the hell did Cloud ever do that made his busy?!

 

----

 

“I take it the only thing you've ever done was the kid?”

Squall was taken aback. “What?”

Cloud kissed his neck. “Sora…I take it you've only done things with Sora…”

Sigh. “Yeah…” Did that make him a hermit?

The blonde laughed. “Hmm…He must be good then.”

The vibrating on the bedside counter tore their attention away from each other. Cloud rolled his eyes before scanning the screen before shrugging. “Oh well…Riku's gotta deal with this one on his own.”

Shaking his head, Squall crawled over to Cloud, pulling him back on top. “So forget about him…”

Somewhere on the campus sat the man with the long silver hair, odd green eyes narrowed.

“Where the fuck are you Cloud?”

 

----

 

 

Aah yes, don't you just love change of plans?

 

Instead of Seifer, guess who was the guest appearance? Other than that, yes, I feel that this was somewhat complete.

 

Once again kinda short, but I do plan on making the next one very very strange.

 

Next chapter: Sora doesn't want to dance, Roxas is in trouble, and HOPEFULLY Seifer will make an appearance.
