Sing To The Wind - Chapter 18

Chapter Eighteen

Roxas stared at himself in the mirror, his looked as white as his tuxedo, he didn't want to be this nervous, he wanted to marry Axel, he wanted to kiss him in front of everyone and brag about how amazing his husband was to him, but he couldn't help but feel so sickeningly nervous about the whole day.
"Rox, you'll be fine," a pair of arms fell around his body comfortingly, brunette spikes mixing with his blonde ones slightly as he too put his arms around his Somebody.
"I'm so scared," Roxas admitted quietly and Sora looked up at him, his lips pulling into a sympathetic smile, he released the boy from his arms and held his hand instead.
"I know it's a big thing, but it's honestly nothing to worry about," Sora tried to reassure him as he swayed their hands a little from side to side.
Roxas nodded and flinched a little as Zexion appeared at his side, his small hands pinning the black rose to his chest gently, being careful of pricking through Roxas's dress shirt.
"Roxas, you'll be fine," Zexion agreed with Sora and Roxas sighed loudly as he rubbed his face with his free hand.
"But what if this is all too soon, I mean we're still in college, what if he gets sick of me or I screw things up?" Roxas shrieked and Sora quickly grabbed his face gently in his hands, staring at the eyes of his over reacting Nobody.
"That's the nerves talking and you know it," Sora's voice was low and serious, he knew Roxas was only nervous but if he kept on talking like this, he would convince himself that getting married wasn't a good idea and Sora knew that wasn't what Roxas wanted at all, it was all the blonde had been talking about for the passed few days, a smile would grace his lips every time he described what he thought married life with Axel would bring.
"I know, I know," Roxas whispered and swallowed hard as he looked from Sora to Zexion.
"It should be Axel being the one to worry," Zexion chuckled, "you're too good for him," he added and both boys looked at him shocked, he giggled a little, "I'm joking, you guys are perfect, so stop being an idiot," Zexion said with a wink and Roxas blushed a little, his shaking hands grabbing at his sides.
"Roxas!" a loud squeal came from behind them and Roxas gasped loudly as a tall red haired woman picked him up in her arms, she was dressed in a beautiful black gothic Lolita dress, her hands and arms covered in black lacy gloves and her feet were pumped up in shiny black heels.
"Hey Misa," Roxas smiled weakly as the woman let him free, she smiled sweetly at him and her familiar jade green eyes sparkling as she observed the boy before her, "Sora, Zexion, this is Axel's mum, Misa Sinclair," Roxas introduced as both Sora and Zexion smiled shyly at her as she turned to greet them, placing a soft kiss on both of their cheeks.
"You all look so pretty!" she giggled and placed her hand on her mouth as she beamed at all three of them, "I'm so happy that my Axel has you three, especially you Roxas," she said kindly and pulled at the black jewelled necklace she had on.
"Thank you Misa, I just hope I make him happy," Roxas muttered and stared down at his black shoes, a frown appearing on his face as he began to think negatively again and a blush burned onto his face as Misa put her hand gracefully underneath his chin and pulled his face upwards so their eyes met.
"Ever since my crazy, happy-go-lucky son met you, he has become a whole other person," she explained and Roxas felt guilt sting his heart and Misa noticed, "in a wonderful way though, he used to be so angry all of the time because no one really understood him in our house and I admit that," Misa scrunched her nose up a little as her black outlined eyes scanned Roxas's surprised face, "but then he met you and he changed, you understand Axel like no one else has, he began to be more open with us and I have never been so proud of him for finding someone he loves so much, that he is comfortable enough to be himself around them," Misa placed a small kiss on Roxas's lips, "you have nothing to be worried about," she beamed and Roxas whimpered before he sunk into her arms, smiling as her words made him feel better, though Sora and Zexion had also cheered him up, they didn't really know Axel like he and Misa did, so he knew that what Misa was saying…was the truth.
"Thank you," Roxas whispered as his hands shyly curled around the fabric of her dress that fell down to just above her knees.
Misa smiled and rubbed his back gently as she rolled her eyes playfully at Sora and Zexion, who chuckled lightly at her playful attitude towards the situation.
"You wouldn't believe how similar Axel is reacting in his own dressing room," Misa giggled and Roxas moved away from her with a light smile.
"He's panicking?" he frowned and Misa grinned at him, nodding her head which caused her long blood red hair to sway around her shoulders, her fringe just slightly falling into her eyes.
"You don't realise how similar you two are, he has the same fears, and do you know what he did this morning?" Misa asked as she stared at Roxas who frowned even more and shook his head, "he cried," she finished and watched Roxas's eyes widen, noticing that both Sora and Zexion had had the same reaction as Roxas.
"Why?" Sora asked and Misa looked at him, her beautiful eyes gazing at his.
"He was frightened that he had pressured Roxas into marrying him because you're all so young, he was also going on about how he thought that he wasn't good enough for Roxas here," Roxas rolled his eyes and sighed heavily at her words, he couldn't help but smile though, knowing that Axel has the same fears and worries as him somehow made Roxas feel more positive, knowing that he and Axel could talk about this sort of thing after the reception was over, he shivered at the thought, he would be in Axel's arms soon, the only place he felt safe.
"Isn't is about time that you two got into your tuxedo's?" Misa suddenly pointed out and both Sora and Zexion gasped a bit and darted out of the room to get changed, Misa giggling at their reaction.

**
"Demyx!" Axel snapped as Demyx pulled a little too hard on his hair, he had decided to have less spikes and a few more just straightened parts for his wedding, he wanted to look at least a little smart for Roxas.
"Sorry," Demyx blushed as he grabbed a hand full of Axel's hair, more gently this time, a began to straighten it slowly, Riku holding the hair spray and combs beside him.
"Try not to bald my son, Demyx," the red haired man in the corner chuckled deeply as he rested against the wall, his bright blue eyes meeting those wide ones of Demyx's.
"Dad," Axel snorted and smirked to himself as he heard his dad walked over, he couldn't help but notice when his dad knelt down in front of him, that his hair was quiet similar to the style of Zexion's.
"Do you even know how to tie a tie?" his dad rolled his eyes and Axel puffed a ball of air out of his mouth as he felt his dad fiddle with the tie around his neck.
"Of course he doesn't dad," Reno chuckled from beside Riku, he had also become one of Axel's best men, Axel never thought to abide by the rules of 'one best man' and decided to have the most important people as his best men.
"Shut it Reno," Axel joked and winced again as Demyx accidently pulled at his hair again, the blonde muttered another apology and grabbed the comb from Riku's hand, brushing it through Axel's clean hair, placing the plastic into his mouth before straightening the brushed part of his hair.
Riku shifted a little as he felt his phone vibrate in the pocket of his black blazer and pulled it out, answering the phone quickly.
"Sora?" he asked to make sure that he had read the screen right and smiled as the voice on the other side of the phone confirmed that it was in fact Sora.
"Hey Riku, is Axel ready to go yet, because Roxas is," Riku grinned at the sound of his voice, his heart fluttering a little.
"Demyx has just finished doing his hair, we just need to clean up a bit and we'll be on our way, how's Roxas doing?" Riku explained as he peered over his shoulder at the others who were cleaning up the hair products and clothes that they had changed out of.
"He's fine, he had a bit of a panicking moment, but he's fine now, how about Axel? Sora's cute voice made heat race around Riku's body, his breath hitched in his throat as he tried to speak normally.
"H-he's fine as well," Riku replied quietly and Sora giggled down the phone.
"Okay, we're going to leave now, so I'll see you guys at the castle," Sora then hung up.

**
Sora watched as Roxas twirled his thumbs around each other, he was still unnecessarily nervous about getting married, he smiled though, thinking about watching Axel say his vows, he had never seen Axel be romantic towards Roxas, so it was sort of fascinating to think about what it would be like to hear him talk like that.
"Sora," Roxas spoke up and his brunette friend looked at him with a smile, "can you promise me something?" he asked and Sora raised an eyebrow at him.
"Sure," Sora replied uneasily as Roxas smiled at him.
"Promise me you'll always be here for me, to stop me from doing anything stupid…like think I'm going to mess this marriage up," Roxas said quietly and Sora slowly allowed himself to grin at Roxas.
"I'll always be here for you," Sora laughed and playfully shoved Roxas away from him, "don't do that again, I thought it was something serious!" he added as relief washed through him.
"And you will too, right Zexion?" Roxas asked as he turned to the bluenette on the other side of him.
"Of course," Zexion replied and blushed as Roxas put both of his arms around the shoulders of both himself and Sora as they fell silent, listening to the music that was playing from the black limo's radio.

**
"You have an appropriate song?" Axel asked Demyx who looked at him with a kind smile on his gorgeous face.
"Yes…well I wrote it for Zexion, to be honest," Demyx admitted as he scratched the back of his head, his cheeks turning red a little as he felt Reno's eyes stare at him.
"It's nothing… 'cursing', is it?" Axel asked again and Demyx shook his head.
"I'm not an idiot, I know what songs are appropriate for a wedding and those that aren't," Demyx explained as he shuffled his hands in the air whilst he spoke.
"Is it recorded?" Riku was the one to ask this time and Demyx shifted his gaze to the silver haired boy next to Axel.
"Well my sitar is already at the castle, but I also have a CD copy of a few songs, so you and Roxas can choose whether you would want a live version of it or not," Demyx suggested intelligently and Axel smiled warmly at him, he was so grateful for having Demyx as his best friend otherwise he would have gone insane if his bubbly friend hadn't been there to cheer him up.
"I think using the CD will be better," Axel said and Demyx looked at his eyes, "so that you can dance with Zexion," he added with a slightly meaningful tone in his voice and Demyx blushed.
"Zexion," Demyx beamed and smiled as he thought of him, his eyes seeming to suddenly glitter.
"Love drunk fool," Riku muttered as he stared out of the window, quietly jealous of both his friends success in love, where as he still hadn't found anyone…Sora.
The beautiful brunette who he desired just had to be the only straight one in the group, he had thought about trying to make Sora become a homosexual, but it would  have been wrong for him to make Sora have such a drastic life style change.
He sighed quietly as he rested his head against the cool glass, his green eyes flying over all of the scenery that was blurring, his eyebrows knitted together as he swore he saw a flash of pink in the blur and he turned in his seat to stare behind him, shaking his head at his over reaction as he saw a group of girls all wearing pink.
He knew why the sight had disturbed him so much, but she wouldn't have been there, she had been moved from Hollow Bastion, but that hadn't stopped Riku from thinking that one day she would come back and ruin everything again.
"Cheer up, yo," Reno nudged him in the rubs gently and Riku looked to him, his hands cupping his face, "it's supposed to be a happy day," Reno teased with a grin and Riku let out a small laugh, he had grown fond of Axel's brother, he was a lot like him in many ways, their personalities were both slightly dark, yet happy at the same time.
"I know, I guess we just had a long night," Riku replied with a yawn and Reno snorted, he had arrived late to his brothers stag do, so he had no idea what both Riku and Demyx had done to be so worn out, sensing this confusion from Reno, Riku chuckled loudly, "we just danced a lot, that's all," he explained and Reno scoffed.
"I don't think it counts as a stag do unless someone gets laid," Reno wondered out loud and all three other males looked at him with raised eyebrows, he just smirked and winked at Axel who grinned at him.
"You two are too alike," Demyx said as he edged away from the two red heads in the car with him and slid next to Riku who laughed at his friends weirdness.

"Stop playing with your damn hair!" Sora snagged his Nobody's wrist with his hand and Roxas looked at him with a giggle as they stood in Hollow Bastion castle, they were settled in a small side room next to the large hall were everything was beautifully set up, black and red ribbons tied to black and red pieces of silky material that had been pinned to the walls in circles, small tables for the few guests were decorated with crystal's that sat between the silverware, candles were spread across the entire hall, on every table, by ever row of seats, Roxas had decided to do this as he knew how much Axel adored the look of fire and Axel had decided to make sure that there was a red carpet for Roxas to walk on, knowing that Roxas should be treated like a film star for what that beautiful little blonde had done for him since they had met.
"Sorry, it's just this stupid spike wont stay up!" Roxas grunted as he fiddled with the bit of hair again, Sora grabbed his wrist again and Roxas sighed as he felt Zexion comb his hair again, bringing out a small can of hairspray and reset his hair back so that it was perfect again.
"Happy now?" Zexion teased and Roxas smiled at him, turning to Misa who had her hand delicately resting on his arm, he noticed that she had tears forming in her eyes and immediately stood up in worry.
"Misa?" Roxas frowned and Misa smiled weakly, placing her hand over her mouth embarrassedly.
"I just realised that both you and Axel are growing up, he isn't my baby anymore," she whispered, a smile still on her bright red lips as she placed another kiss on Roxas's cheek, "forgive my outburst," she sighed and Roxas beamed up at her, standing on his tiptoes so that he could put his arms around her.
Sora looked at Misa with an adoring smile, he couldn't believe how sweet and caring she was, she was very different from both of her sons. He yawned and stretched as he glanced around, his eyes freezing as a flash of pink soared across his vision, he flinched and blinked a few times, laughing at himself as he realised that one of the guests had arrived in a beautiful pink dress, he put his hand to his head and sighed, trying to get a hold of himself.
"Roxas!" a deep voice yelled.
"Sora!" another deep voice called.
Sora and Roxas spun around at the call of their names and both of them let out a small gasp as they saw their other 'relatives' standing there in matching dark blue tuxedo's.
"Ventus!" Roxas squealed and threw himself at the identical boy to himself, Ventus smiled and held him tightly.
"Vanitas!" Sora grinned and took a slower approach to getting over to the black haired boy, his arms linking around him, beaming as the black haired boy did the same.
"It's been too long," Ventus smiled and placed a firm hand on Roxas's shoulder, "we heard from Cloud that you were getting married, apparently you had been trying to find our address to invite us," Ventus explained and took Sora into his arms as Vanitas embrace Roxas.
"So we thought we would show up as a surprise for you," Vanitas finished the story and the brunette and blonde before the two of them beamed up at their taller, older 'relatives'.
"We've missed you," Sora whispered as he looked up at Ventus who smiled friendly at him, his hand ruffling the brown spikes.
"C'mon Sora, I said we would meet again didn't I?" Ventus laughed and stuck his tongue out at him, this made Sora smile as he realised just how much he had missed the cheeky attitude of both Ventus and Vanitas.
"Ugh with a side of ugh at your cheesy line," Vanitas remarked and both Roxas and Sora threw their heads back laughing where as Ventus raised his eyebrow at him before using he thrust his arm out, smacking Vanitas around the back of the head causing the black head to wince and sigh loudly at the slight pain in his head.
"You look great by the way," Ventus complimented as he turned away from Vanitas who had slung his arm around Sora's shoulders casually, his golden eyes peering at him.
"Thank you," Roxas blushed lightly and scanned both of the boys in front of him, "you two dress up well too," he meant it as well, both Ventus and Vanitas looked amazing in their dark blue tuxedos, a purple rose on the left side of their chests and a black tie to top the outfit off.
"Well I try," Vanitas said cockily and skilfully dodged the hand that went to smack his head again, "what did I say?" he shrieked and Ventus grinned at him.
"You're an idiot," Ventus snickered and rolled his gorgeous blue eyes as he watched Vanitas snuggled against Sora who was looking up at the black head with an eyebrow raised as he laughed at his 'relatives' odd behaviour.
"You've grown so much," Vanitas chuckled and poked Sora gently in the cheek, looking to Roxas and pulling the small blonde towards him, poking his cheek as well, "so have you," he added and Ventus slapped his hand to his forehead.
"And people say that I'm the childish one," Ventus sniggered and nearly jumped out of his skin as two very strong arms wrapped around his waist, "Cloud!" he shrieked as the blonde laughed deeply into his ear.
"Long time no see mini blonde," Cloud smiled as he gave Ventus one last squeeze before he yanked Vanitas away from the two teenagers he was cuddling and cradled the black head in his arms as well.
"Good grief," Zack sighed from behind Cloud and shook his head at his partners childishness, "Roxas, you look hot," he said cheekily and Roxas blushed deeply, getting a compliment from such a good looking man would have made even the straightest man blush.
"Thank you," Roxas repeated the same two words he had been saying all day and beamed at the white coloured tuxedos that both Cloud and Zack were wearing.
"Cloud, let the poor boys go," Zack chuckled and snaked his arms around Cloud's waist, causing the adult blonde to feel heat spread across his face as he turned to gaze up at the raven haired man and cuddled shyly into his embrace.
Sora laughed at how much Cloud's attitude changed in a few seconds, from happy and hyper, to shy and in love, he flinched again as more pink flashed passed his eyes like a blur of pink paint.
"What the-" he twirled on the balls of his feet and he followed the direction that the pink blur had gone and shook his head as he saw nothing behind him, was he going crazy? "Roxas, I need to talk to you," Sora panicked as he pulled Roxas away from his conversation he was having with Zexion, who was being stared at by Vanitas.
"You're going to rip my arm out of it's socket," Roxas joked as the brunette pulled them out of the small side room, out into the decorative hall.
"I know what I'm about to say may sound crazy," Sora began and Roxas tilted his head, "but I-I think I saw Kairi," he stuttered and Roxas sighed heavily, closing his eyes as he shook his head.
"Sora, you've been seeing her every since the incident, I know it's hard to forget, but please, not today," Roxas said calmly and gasped as Sora grabbed him by the shoulders.
"Roxas, I'm being serious, I really think I saw her!" Sora exclaimed going on to say more but Roxas cut him off.
"Stop it!" the blonde shouted a little annoyed, "this is my wedding Sora, stop ruining it with your stupid delusions!" he yelled and Sora flinched at his harsh tone, he and Roxas had had arguments before, but this time Roxas was truly angry with him.
"Roxas please-" Sora stared after Roxas sadly as he watched the groom to be walk back into the side room, leaving Sora on his own, his head in his hands as he tried to control his frightened thoughts, he had to be seeing things, Kairi wasn't even in Hollow Bastion so she couldn't have gotten here so quickly, nor did she know about Roxas and Axel's wedding.
"Yo, Sora!" Sora looked up slowly, his heart thumping wildly as his eyes met those green jewels of Riku's.
"Riku," Sora smiled weakly as the tall silver haired boy made his way over after he had told Axel and the others to go into the other side room that was on the left hand side of the hall, where as Roxas's side room was on the right.
"You look…great," Riku found himself staring at the brunette and blushed slightly as Sora's eyes met his.
"Thanks, you do too," Sora beamed happily as he linked his hands behind his back and blinked a few times as he watched his best friend try to gain his voice back and he smiled shyly at him.
"Um, how's Roxas doing?" Riku finally managed to speak up, mentally slapping himself for looking like an idiot in front of Sora.
"He's pissed at me," Sora muttered and sighed at the confused look on Riku's face, "I told him I thought I saw Kairi," Sora explained quietly and saw Riku stiffen a little in his posture.
"I thought I saw her too," Riku agreed and Sora looked up at him as Riku rested against the grey stone wall beside him, his long silver hair falling into his eyes.
"You did?" Sora prompted and Riku blew upwards to ruffle his fringe.
"It's a trick of our own minds, we've been through a lot, that's all," Riku explained and ruffled Sora's hair, smiling down at his best friend, the brunette smiled back and pushed his negativity to the back of his head, trying to focus on what he wanted to do next.
"Riku, can I ask you to do something?" Sora nearly whispered as he bit his lip nervously, his stomach felt like it had just tied itself into thousands of knots as he took in steady breaths.
"Sure, anything," Riku beamed and frowned a little as Sora turned his entire body to face him and swallowed loudly as he stared at the boy, wondering why he looked both frightened and nervous, his breath hitching in his throat as Sora took his hand in his shaking one.
"Can you kiss me?" Sora spat out quickly and blushed heavily as he stared at the ground, not believing what he had just asked of his best friend.
"What?" Riku asked as he tried to take in the words he had just heard fall from Sora's mouth, his heart beat erratically in his chest.
"Please Riku!" Sora almost sounded as if he was begging, "I-I need to be sure of something, please," he explained as he tried to control his stuttering words.
Riku licked his lips as he gazed at Sora, he had been wanting this moment for years, but now he wasn't so sure that he wanted to take advantage of Sora, who was clearly confused about something, but his heart was almost literally screaming for him to take this chance, his hand pulled Sora's chin up a little roughly and he stared into the blue orbs that stared back into green jewels, he then slowly brushed his lips against Sora's, smiling into the kiss as he heard Sora gasp, obviously not expecting him to actually go through with his request.
Sora's hands curled his hands into fists as he grasped Riku's blazer tightly, the fabric so soft under his pale skin, his mind was all over the place by now as he began to kiss back, his mouth parting slightly to allow Riku's all too eager tongues to slip into his mouth, stroking along side his, running over the roof of his mouth, tasting what he had been dreaming about for several days now.
"I hate to interrupt, but guests are arriving guys," a deep voice interrupted them and they quickly jumped apart, licking their lips as they looked to Zack who was smirking at them, mostly Sora who blushed immediately at eye contact with the SOLDIER.
Riku smiled at Sora who hesitated before allowing a small smile to appear on his red face, taking the hand that was held out to him by the silver head, shivering at the feeling it gave him to hold hands with him.
"Um…are we…dating now?" Riku asked as he squeezed Sora's hand gently.
"If you want to," Sora whispered as the dodged around a tall blonde haired woman and a black haired man.
Riku planted a kiss softly on Sora's cheek, sneaking his tongue out to lick his cheek as well, "of course I do," Sora resisted the urge to let out a small squeal and instead hid his burning face in Riku's arm.
"Can everybody settle down!" Zack yelled as he stood at the top of the alter, waving his hands to all of the guests, trying to get them to be quiet, his eyes shifting to Axel who had just emerged from his side room, even Zack couldn't believe how amazing Axel looked.
The hall fell silent as Axel, Demyx, Reno and Riku (who had unwillingly pulled away from Sora to join there side) began to walk up the carpet.
Axel began to chew on his bottom lip as the nerves inside him, he had never been the one to shy away from eye contact, but now he had almost been closing his eyes as his friends and brother walked beside him, until finally, they reached the top of the alter where a tall pretty blonde woman stood, holding the bible in her hands.
Reno, Riku and Demyx stood to the right of Axel with their hands politely behind their backs, all four of them turning their heads as they heard the squeak of a door opening, revealing what Axel desired more than anything, the beautiful blonde who was now walking shyly beside both Zexion and Sora, he smiled at the tuxedo that he had picked out and he felt his heart flutter as his eyes met Roxas's.
"Breathe," Zexion whispered as he heard Roxas's breathing getting a little out of control.
"Thanks," Roxas whispered back with a small smile, his eyes never leaving Axel's before he reached out and shakily grasped Axel's extended hand, sliding his fingers in between them and he smiled weakly as Axel brought his hand to his face, nuzzling his nose against the cool skin of the blushing blonde.
"Hey," Axel whispered and he and Roxas shared a smile as they stood, hands tightly entwined as they tuned to face the vicar.
Sora and Zexion placed themselves to the left of Roxas, their hands behind their backs just as Demyx and Riku's were.
"So pretty," this had almost squealed from Misa's mouth and she giggled as everyone turned to her, her hand placed girlishly over her lips as her beautiful smile appeared under her fingers, her husband, Sebastian, chuckled at his wife's childish behaviour.
Axel rolled his eyes slightly as he grinned at Roxas before everyone turned back to the vicar who was patiently waiting for them to be ready before she began.
The words flew out of the vicars mouth as a poem as her words flew together beautifully, her eyes always shinning as her bright eyes switched from Axel to Roxas and back again constantly, making sure they knew she was talking to both of them, the couple before her only occasionally looking away from each other as she spoke to them, this just seemed to make her smile even more.
Sora beamed at the sight before him, he was so happy for them, Roxas more than Axel seen as though what the blonde had been through with Marluxia. He couldn't help but wonder whether he would see the day when he and Riku would possibly get married, his eyes automatically moved to the handsome silver haired teenager, his pale white skin was so soft, he had loved the feeling of it under his fingertips when their lips had lingered and danced together, he smiled bashfully as the memory replayed in his head.
Sora jumped as pink yet again flashed passed his eyes, his heart stopping entirely for several seconds and he let out a panicked yell, his hand slapping over his mouth as his eyes widened, meeting those angry ones of Roxas.
"Sora, I told you to stop it," Roxas hissed and Sora shook his head.
"N-no I really saw her this time!" Sora gasped but soon fell deadly silent as he spied the glare appearing on Roxas's face, "sorry," he turned to the guests, "lost my balance, that's all," he forced a laugh to sound in his throat and some of the guests giggled with him.
Roxas shook his head and took a deep breath in as he licked his lips, turning to Axel again.
"Any two people should be able to celebrate their love for one another within marriage, so therefore I pronounce you life partners," the vicar finished her speech and took a small step back in shock as Axel nearly knocked her out by diving downwards as he bent down, connecting his lips to the blondes hungrily, his hand cupping his face, his fingers stroking behind Roxas's ears.
"I love you," Axel breathed as he slowly pulled away from Roxas, still holding his face gently, his forehead pressed to his new husbands.
"I love you too," Roxas replied shyly as his eyes slowly opened, his hands raising so that the curled around Axel's arms.
It was then that everyone on the alter jumped madly as the sound of music suddenly filled the hall, the guests moved from their seats and made a small circle where the first dance would take place.
"Demyx?" Zexion frowned as his boyfriend jumped behind the alter and brought out a stool and a shiny brown acoustic guitar.
"This is only the background music I mixed, I still need to play and sing for them," Demyx explained and fixed a small microphone to his blazer.
Axel laughed slightly before holding his hand out to Roxas, "may I have this dance?" he said in a cheesy voice and Roxas bit his lip to hold back his laughter.
"Yes you may kind sir," Roxas replied in the same voice, his hand gripping Axel's as the walked down the few steps towards the centre of the circle.
Demyx's amazing voice began to dance around the room with them as he delicately strummed on his guitar.
"So just close your eyes,
Your hands in mine,
And just sing to the wind,"
Zexion knew that this song was for him, just by the way that Demyx's body seemed to be facing him rather than the guests and the newly weds.
"Axel, slow down!" Roxas blushed as he tried to keep up with Axel's impressive dancing, his own feet nearly tangling together as he tried to copy the moves.
Axel smirked before he unexpectedly lifted Roxas off of the floor and settled his arms around Roxas's waist, forcing the blonde to wrap his legs around his own waist, their faces now eyelevel.
"I love how you're so innocent still," Axel purred and Roxas was just about to snap at him when his lips were suddenly crushed by the red's, a few of the other dancing couples 'awed' them as the spun passed.
As some beautifully composed music, that Demyx had conquered up, began to play, Demyx settled his guitar down and removed the microphone, pulling Zexion towards him and making him slow dance with him, the bluenette blushing as both Axel and Roxas laughed at them.
They all looked so happy and joyful with their loved ones, it made Sora wonder why he couldn't just get over the fact he had actually seen a possible hallucination of Kairi, he stood alone on the alter, planting his backside on the stool Demyx had been on previously and ran his hand agitatedly through his thick brown spikes, his heart still hadn't slowed down from it's panic state so he loosened the tie around his neck, unbuttoning the top of his shirt as he glared at the red carpet below his shiny black dress shoes.
"Sora," a small smile appeared on the boys face as he felt someone pull his face upwards, lips caringly meeting his.
"Riku," Sora murmured as they pulled away, his cheeks coloured red as he licked his lips, savouring the taste of Riku.
"You okay?" Riku knelt in front of him with a concerned look on his face, his hand resting on Sora's knee as he examined the face of his new partner.
"I'm fine," he was now that Riku was near him, something about the older guy made him at ease, his amazing green eyes seemed to have magic about them that just made Sora melt completely.
"You want to dance?" Riku smiled as he felt Sora's arms shyly wrap around his waist, his head resting upon the stomach of the silver haired boy.
Sora took a deep breath in, smiling warmly at the scent he received from Riku's shirt, his forehead nuzzling into it a bit more as his grip tightened around Riku's waist.
"No, I want to stay like this," Sora whined as he closed his eyes, loving the warmth he was feeling in both his chest and stomach as he continued to keep Riku trapped within his arms, he lifted his head so that he could gaze up at Riku who had decided to run his hand through his hair and smiled slightly.
"That sounds good to me," Riku beamed as he knelt down, Sora's face now resting on his shoulder, an angelic smile gracing his young face as Riku's hand stroked his back.
'What the-?' Sora tried to ignore the pink blur that seemed to be lingering behind a tall cream coloured pillar in the hall, it was surrounded by red lacy material, almost shielding it like a curtain.
"Um, Riku," he said with a forced smile as Riku made eye contact with him, his lips pressing gently and quickly to his, his heart sped up as he realised that he actually loved the way Riku's lips felt, "I need to go to the toilet," he giggled and Riku threw his head back laughing as he slowly let go of his boyfriend.
"Have fun," Riku winked and Sora blushed slightly with nervous laughter as he brushed passed him, quickly moving his feet towards the pillar, his hand gripping his blazer as he slipped in and around people dancing, trying to avoid himself getting trod on or even hit by all the waving hands that were going along with the now upbeat song that was playing.
Sora growled in frustration as he finally managed to get passed everyone, tripping as he reached the pillar, his hands slamming against the pillar so that he didn't fall onto the floor.

'I want to tell Sora I love him…why is it so hard to tell him?' Riku thought to himself, he sighed a little as his thought's were interrupted, "Riku!" Roxas called as he stopped in front of Riku, panting slightly from all of the dancing he had been doing, "where's Sora?" Roxas asked as he bit his lip.
"He's in the toilets," Riku replied and Roxas thanked him before turning around, knocking into Axel in the process.
"Whoa, where are you going hubby?" Axel joked and Roxas beamed up at him.
"I need to say sorry to Sora, it's not fair that I was angry with him…who can blame him for seeing things after that," Roxas whispered as he felt guilt biting away at his body hard.
Axel stared at his husband, soon letting out a rough groan and his mouth attacked Roxas's, "you're too adorable!" he growled and hugged him tightly, laughing when he saw the startled looked on Roxas's face.
"Cheers," Roxas sniggered and stood on his toes so that he could place a kiss on Axel's neck, "you're pretty adorable too when you choose to be," Roxas whispered in a slightly seductive tone and Riku half rolled his eyes as he saw the smirk that appeared on Axel's face, "but first I need to find Sora," Roxas said breaking the atmosphere between him and his new husband and Axel pouted, pulling Roxas back to him, nuzzling his face into the crook of his lovers neck, not wanting to be away from his side.
"Just a few more minuets," Axel whined and began to place butterfly kisses all over Roxas's neck, biting down gently and then rubbing his cheek against Roxas's as he held the boy from behind.
Roxas interrupted again but by something he didn't think could happen on his wedding day, screams erupted from the guests as they all seemed to back away from one of the pillars, he looked over in alarm as he saw Sora being pushed onto his knees, he winced as he heard the slam they made as they hit the hard marble floor.
"Sora!" Riku gasped but Roxas's hand shot out, preventing Riku from moving any further, his eyes widening in both shock and fear as he faintly saw the shape of a gun barrel pressed to the side of Sora's head, a small pale hand gripping the handle of the gun, keeping their identity hidden by the shadows created by both the decorations and the pillar.
Cloud, who was stood near the back of the crowd of guests nearly launched himself through the crowd, desperate to get Sora beside him, but Zack gripped him around the waist, "Sora," he whispered as he felt his eyes sting with tears, not allowing them to fall.
Sora looked to Roxas and Axel, their day was in ruins because of him, his mind couldn't focus properly as to the fault of the warm metal barrel of the gun that was held to the side of his head, his heart hammering in his chest as he looked to the last person in the alter. Riku.
"Say it," Kairi hissed from behind him and Sora let out a sob, his hands falling to the floor to steady himself as he felt tears falling from his eyes, dropping to the floor in little patterns.
"I-I can't!" Sora choked and gasped as she pressed the gun harder into the side of his head, his confidence collapsing around him as he kept his eyes on Riku, he was begging with his gaze that he would be safe, begging that Riku could read that he loved him and he was sorry for never telling him.
"Do it," Kairi snapped and kneed him hard in the back.
"Sora!" his eyes moved to Roxas's frightened face, his heart shattered as he saw that the blonde was petrified, tears staining his cheeks, "I'm coming!" Roxas continued and moved forwards.
"He'll die if he gets closer," Kairi threatened and Sora turned to Roxas who was running towards him, he screamed for him to stay back and Roxas froze at the tone of Sora's voice.
"S-Sora," Roxas stammered as he took another step forwards, only a few feet away from his Somebody now.
"Roxas, please!" Sora yelled, tears burning his cheeks, his heart racing as he saw Kairi moved to the side, the gun moving from the side of his head slowly, "STAY BACK!" He roared and this made Roxas halt almost immediately in fright, Ventus appearing from the frightened crowd and pulled Roxas back into it with him, gripping his hand tightly as Vanitas wrapped his arms around both of them protectively.
"I told you to say it," Kairi growled, "tell him you don't love him, say it," she added and shoved the barrel into the back of his head causing him to whimper in pain.
Sora gritted his teeth, grunting in both frustration and fear as he knew what he was about to say, could very well cause him pain, but his eyes narrowed as anger burned inside of him, he looked to Riku again who was being held back by Axel, who was having a lot of trouble in doing so.
"Riku!" Sora yelled and Riku stopped struggling, "I-I…" he heard Kairi click the gun out of safety mode and he growled in anger, not caring anymore, he needed to say it, "I love you!" he shouted quickly, screaming as he felt pain shoot through the back of his head.
Riku froze as his heart stopped and restarted again, watching as blood splattered in front of Sora's body, staining the marble floor as his body fell forwards, the figure appearing, a smirking face beaming as she flickered her gaze from Riku to Sora and back again, winking at Riku before walking out of the hall.
"SORA!" the screams from all ten of Sora's closest friends echoed around the hall as they all stared in horror at their beloved friend.
Zexion let out a cry as he hid his face in Demyx's chest, Demyx wrapped his arms around him tightly, shaking as he tried to stay strong for Zexion, but he couldn't stop his tears from falling.
Axel and Riku were frozen in their spot, staring desperately at Sora's body, begging in their minds that he would move again, turn and show them his beautiful smile, but he didn't.
Zack and Leon shook as they looked to Sora's body, their eyes taking in the blood, the pain, the fear, the shock, the horror of what had just happened, their friend, their amazing friend was hurt.
Ventus and Vanitas screamed, but neither of them could move, both of them staring in devastation, not reacting as Demyx and Zexion pulled them into their arms as well.
Roxas grunted as he finally broke free from Vanitas's grip, falling onto his knees, pulling Sora's top half onto his lap, his hands shaking as the were instantly drenched in blood, a large gun shot wound could be seen on the side on the back of Sora's head.
"R-Roxas," Sora whimpered, weakly holding onto his Nobodies shirt tightly, his vision fading as he continued to blink, confused as to why he couldn't see properly.
"Sora you said you were going to be there for me, always, remember?" Roxas cried as he shook him slightly, Cloud now at his side, shaking as he pulled at his blonde chocobo styled hair.
Sora's lifeless eyes turned to Roxas's face, he could barely smile but still somehow managed too, his head nuzzling into Roxas's arms, his eyes closing, "I'm sorry," he whispered, lightly kissing Roxas's stomach, tears sliding down his cheek as he knew that this was his last breath, he shook as he finally allowed himself to breathe again, his hands falling limply from Roxas's shirt  and onto his lap heavily, his body finally giving in to what he had been predicting ever since he saw Kairi pull the gun out from behind her back, he heard the two blondes scream his name…right before he fell into the arms of nothingness.
