Axel sat, content as he ran his fingers through Riku's dampened hair. The teen was panting softly, his cheeks still flushed from their earlier activites(the poor boy kept muttering something about cleaning the sheets for Demyx). The sounds the younger made, when in pure exctasy... Axel gave a lop-sided grin as he let himself slide down to craddle Riku close.

Sure, Riku had wanted him to leave, but the redhead would have none of that. It was Riku's fault he... that he was here now, needing the boy so dearly. Never in his life had his heart ached as much as it did without Riku. Even if their first meeting had been short and bittersweet, the redhead knew the boy had... had felt the same ach.

Otherwise they wouldn't be in this particular situation now. "My ass hurts," the younger muttered softly as he propped himself up on his elbows, attempting to glare down at Axel(the man only grinned happily). Ah, the looks Riku gave were too cute for his own good, the older figured as he ran a hand along the younger's jaw, smirking with Riku's shudder.

"Up for Round Two, love," the man teased as he too sat up, pulling the startled boy into his arms, into his kiss. He kept things soft, tender for Riku, not wanting to hurt the kid. Which was a first in his life, Axel realised when Riku eagerly parted his lips for the older's tongue.

Sure, before he wanted to knock the kid out and steal him away, to torture and play with at a later date but now...

Axel allowed his tongue to be ushered between Riku's lips, but quickly took over the kiss as he cupped the back of the younger's head, keeping him in place as the redhead searched around the moist cavern. Never had kissing held such... such a thrill for Axel, but well, he was just all full of firsts when it came to Riku.

"Riku, I'm back," came the call of Larxene; it had Riku panicing in a second flat. In panic mode, the younger pressed his tongue against Axel's, trying to get the man to relent so he could escape with his... lower anatomy intact. Instead, Axel fell back, his free hand running a path down the younger's back to cup roughly at a pale mass of flesh that was Riku's rear.

Riku let out a surprised squeak, his face flushing a dark pink as the older man chuckled. But it was enough it a distraction that kept Riku from realizing that in their haste to... consumate their relationship, Axel had the door left open. And in the doorway stood a grinning blonde woman who tried to keep herself from laughing.

"Nee, Riku, you around here," she asked, pretending she was passing the room and making her way to the kitchen( though she had closed the door, pretending to mutter about Demyx and laziness). It frightened Riku even more when a finger slid between his aching orafice, already working him for another round. "N-noo, Axel," he panted when their lip-lock broke, his hands clinging to the older's shoulders.

"L-Larxene will hear," he pleaded to the older, tears in his eyes as two more digits were added. Axel merely smiled back, running his hand through Riku's hair to keep him calm.

"I don't think she'll care, m'dear. Just... let me love you," Axel whispered into Riku's ear, loving the way the younger relaxed instantly(at the sound, at least) into his hold. If only he had spoken Village's tongue when he met Riku, then he could say so many naughty things that would make sense to the younger.


Je 'taime

It was a new day.

Roxas sat on the steps of the orphanage's main building, eyes glued to the road. It was already elven in the morning. Where was Riku? They... they needed to talk, in great length on what Sora had... confessed to he and his girlfriend last night. Namine was still holed up in her room, refusing any form of comfort.

And Sora... Sora was with Kairi. Which didn't surprise Roxas in the least, seeing as how the girl had Sora glued to the hip. The blonde sighed, ready to give up on waiting for Riku. He... he only wanted to prepare the older for what would happen as soon as Riku entered these doors.

"I love my Mommy 'cuz she fucked my Dad. I love my Mommy 'cuz she fucked the shit out of my Dad! I love my Mommy 'cuz she 'Oh yeeeah~' I love my Mommy 'cuz she 'Uhh uhh uhh!"

Roxas knew by the off-tune yelling that Demyx was rounding the corner, his grin wide and beaming(no doubt because he had been thoroughly loved?) as he cooed, "Yoo-hoo! Roxas!" The younger blonde gave a timid wave back as he stood, patting his back down before making his way to the bouncy musician.

"You know where Riku is," Roxas started, wanting to get this all out of the way. Demyx nodded eagerly.

"Yeah! He's at Larx's, y'know? I dropped by and Larxene said he'd be here soon, y'kno--" Before the grinning blonde could finish, the back of his head had been smacked, making him topple into Roxas' arms. Behind him stood the town's Disipline Enforcers; Fuujin, Raijin, and the leader Seifer.

"You seen Hayner anywhere," the thug tried to play coolly, acting like he didn't care. Roxas was probably the only person who knew Seifer had a schoolgirl crush on Hayner, and well, he was just too eager to play this trump card when the leader got too almighty for Roxas' liking.

"He was at the theatre yesterday, working, y'know" Demyx said as he rubbed at the back of his head, his good mood dissipated as he glared daggers at Raijin. The burly teen glared back, not liking how the blonde was mocking him.

"MISSING," Fuujin said simply, her red eyes idly searching around for Hayner. Seifer nodded as he crossed his arms, his weight shifted to one leg. "That's right. Got a tip that he went missing around six in the evening yesterday. Figured he was just around here with you losers, but we see that isn't so."

Roxas blinked. Hayner, missing? Crazy speak. That kid was loud, and fun and... why would he be missing? "We could help," Roxas offered, wanting to find out what happened with his childhood friend. Besides, this was a good distraction from Riku. Seifer glowered down at Roxas before shrugging as he muttered," Just don't get in our way."

Demyx nodded with the younger blonde, lifting his headphones back up as he began singing, simply to get on Seifer's nerves. The first stop would obviously be the theatre, to ask Selphie if she happened to see anything. So Roxas turned the opposite corner that Seifer was going, tugging a giddy Demyx along.

That had been fun for a whole of two seconds.

"I love it when you call me Big Poppa! Throw your hands in the air, if you are a true playa--"

Before Demyx could continue, the worn sight of Riku came into view; his hair desheveled, clothes wrinkled and a mess, face red with tears, bruises and blood.

"I'll come see you again, okay," Axel whispered softly as he kissed Riku gently, wanting more than anything to... to not leave. Or to take Riku with him. But the teen was smiling up at him, their fingers laced as they stood outside of Larxene's house, kissing and being an overall happy couple.

"I... don't know where I can find you, but... well, you know I'm here," Riku started, his eyes shyly glancing away as his cheeks flushed. Idly, he noticed Larxene yelling, 'Hurry up and make out!' though he ignored it, instead for the warm smile Axel was giving him.

"A-anyway, I should be going before Sora arranges for my funeral," the teen said softly, leaning up for one more kiss before he turned, trying to make himself go. But... but he and Axel had... A flush came to Riku's cheeks, but he straightened his shoulders before he tupped down the street, eager to tell Demyx the great news.

"Fucking fag," came a gruff voice from his left, though Riku only had enough time to dodge the kick directed to his stomach. Before he could parry the attack, another had hook her arms around Riku's shoulders, stilling him completely. Shit, the teen thought as he wiggled, hoping to maybe break the woman's guard, but a man's hand around his throat made Riku still.

"Fags like you piss me off," the man hissed as he backhanded Riku, glaring daggers as he raised his hand once more to strike the frightened teen. But... but Riku couldn't call out for help. If he did, everyone would know he was... was with Axel. Again, he tried to move, his eyes scrunched shut at the impact of fthe man's fist to his stomach.

The woman was chuckling, her chest pressing up to his back vibrating with the noise. It made Riku sick; that there were people like this, ready to beat up another simlpy because of sexual preference. Hey, until two days ago he was happily straight! But... but gods Axel had... he was just too...

Before the man could strike again, the dull sound of metal to bone split through the air, making Riku open his eyes in surprise. Through the attacker's mouth was a familiar metal pipe, and behind was an incensed Axel; his emerald eyes were narrowed as he yanked the pipe out before sending it back into the man's head.

"You do not touch my Riku!!"

The action was repeated, sending splatters of blood across Riku's cheeks, though the pale teen could care less. Axel... he was here, saving him(albeit a bit too violently, but hey, whatever works) and... Riku felt tears pricking at his eyes. The woman stared in horror at her partner's head, watching grey matter fall to the ground in bits with bone and blood, his face deformed as he gurgled.

She released Riku, ready to run before pain erupted through her knee, sending her falling. She timidly glanced back, finding the kid pressed against the redhead's chest, the older soothing him as he twisted the pipe in her knee. A scream broke though her lips as she reached back, trying to pull the rusted object out.

"P-please no! We were only teasin--"

Another scream filled the air as the pipe was removed, instead implanted through her wrist. "Beating up someone's lover is considered teasing? Then killing yours must mean I was only messing around, hmm?" Softly, Axel stroked through Riku's hair, leaning down to kiss at the shaking boy's forehead as he ripped the pipe out once more. How dare these people hurt his Riku?!

If only he had kept a closer eye on the boy, this wouldn't have happened. Angrily, he thrust the pipe forward, making sure the woman would not speak again; the pipe rushed through her mouth. He had never truly hated the people he killed, but these two--Axel growled, swiping the pipe, watching as the jagged edges dragged into the woman's mouth, cutting the muscle and flesh easily.

Once he was certain the witch would no longer speak, he turned his attention to Riku, taking ahold of the younger's chin to lift his gaze up. Tears were in his eyes, though none fell. Blood sat so... perfectly on Riku's cheeks, though the frightened look in the boy's eyes made Axel sigh softly before holding Riku closer.

He... damnit he should have been more careful, but seeing those two-- Axel forced himself to stay calm, opting for letting go of the pipe(and he was amused to see it standing perfectly in the struggling woman's mouth) and instead caring for Riku.

"Riku, I'm sorry you had to see that. C'mon look up here. Let me take care of you," Axel said softly, once more lifting the boy's head up, his thumb running along a delicate cheekbone. His poor Riku, face bruising and dirtied.

"A-axel... you are the killer..," Riku whispered softly, his eyes wide as he gazed up at the older. Axel swallowed, trying to pretend he didn't know what the boy had said but... but shit! Sure, the kid probably already had his suspisions, but this... damnit it wasn't fair! Then... he should probably...

"Yeah, I am. Are you afraid of me now," he asked in Village's tongue, not surprised in the least as Riku gaped at him. What he didn't expect was the punch to the jaw that made Axel stumble back to see a rather miffed teen.

"Y-you can.... you--You lied to me!," Riku hollared, tears finally falling as he glared at Axel. He... Axel could speak Village's tongue the entire time! "Damnit, Axel! If you understood me all this time... w-why did you..." Axel found his footing, and quickly moved over, taking Riku's arms in his hands, shaking him softly.

"Shush, Riku. Listen to me, okay? I haven't lied to you, love. I only thought if you couldn't understand me, that if I should ever be caught... you would be safe." Riku blinked, trying to pry free from the older's grasp, but found it useless. "That's a stupid reason and you know it," he growled back. "N-now let me go."

"Not until you calm down," Axel replied smoothly, giving a grin that was ignored... or returned with a spiteful look. "Riku, the truth? I want you. I've wanted you since we first met. But I wasn't sure how to approach you. You were crying, remember? I wanted... I wanted to steal you away, and punish whoever it was that made you cry.

Your appearance isn't that of Village's natives, so I thought maybe you spoke a different tongue. But well, imagine my surprise when you're goin' on and on in this language. But... Riku please believe me when I say that you... you were so cute that I couldn't stop myself. I wanted to talk to you, to have an actual conversation but..."

Axel sighed, releasing Riku as he stared at the ground. "Just.... I live in Lower Village, fourth block, second house. If you ever want to talk, or anything, that's where I'll be." Riku swallowed, nodding absently before he turned, continuing to the orphanage in a complete daze.

Riku sat in the tub, his eyes blank as he allowed Namine to scrub him down. Roxas and Demyx said they were looking for Hayner, but that they would be back later. It didn't matter. Axel... Axel had taken human life for him... a-and it frightened the teen more than anything. He didn't want to even think about why the man knew more than one language!

"Riku, tell me if I hurt you, okay," Namine said softly as she set a pale cloth to Riku's face, tenderly rubbing the blood and grime as she watched for a reaction. But she only received a blink. What had happened to Riku? Right now, Namine didn't care about what Sora had told she and Roxas last night; Riku was troubled and she had to be there for him!

Softly, she swiped the older's bangs from his face, letting his pale hand run down his jaw tenderly as she kissed his forehead. "It's alright Riku. You're safe now," Namine whispered as she let the clothed hand run down his neck, noticing how his veins throbbed with strain. He... he needed rest the girl decided as she stood to start the shower.

Some quick cleaning, then she could toss the teen into bed for a good night's rest! Or well... a good day's rest? Namine shrugged as she turned the faucet, watching the water switch to the showerhead, the steaming liquid hitting Riku square in the face. But he didn't move as Namine paniced, just blinked.

The tub was slowly filling with dirt and blood, and it made Namine worry that perhaps Riku had an injury that needed tending. But Roxas said Riku was fine, just bruised. The blonde sighed softly as she grabbed the bar of soap, lather her hands before leaning back down to run her soaped fingers through the knots in RIku's untamed hair.

The older didn't budge, nor flinch throughout the cleansing ritual, though he did hiss when Namine wrapped her arm around his shoulders to help lift him up. "R-riku," the girl stuttered, almost loosing her grip, but Riku shook his head.

"I'm fine, Namine. Thank you for the trouble," he whispered softly as he stood, giving a the girl a raised brow as she simply stood. "I'm naked, Namine." Immediately the flushed lbonde was rushing out of the bathroom, leaving a smiling Riku. He... needed to get over this. Axel had given an explination...

Riku sighed as he wobbled out of the tub, grabbing for a towel to wrap around his waist before he made his way to his joint room with Pence. The raven haired boy was laying on his own bed, flipping through comics. "Pence, have you seen Sora," the pale teen asked as he strolled over to the closet, grabbing simple clothes as he discarded his towel for them.

Pence shrugs, not bothering to look up as he replies, "Sora's with Kairi, and they're at the park, last I heard." Riku swallowed. Ah... with Kairi. But Riku shrugged his clothes on, dumping his used towel in the hamper before he leaves, intent on getting a few minutes alone with Sora. He would...

He'd be back before Roxas and Demyx, and hopfeully he would be able to sort through his feelings on Axel.
