Chapter 6

Sora woke up to an odd tickling sensation on his chest. Cracking one eye open he saw blonde hair. It was too long to be his brother and the shape of the bangs could only belong to a few people.
"Larx get off." He grumbled pushing his cousin away.
"Hn, Sora." the blonde woman muttered groggily and curled against the side of the couch they had crashed beside. Nami was on said couch using Riku for a pillow and Kairi was curled up near Sora's own feet. He stood up and looked over the mostly unclothed people who were his social circle if not his friends a few actually were missing. He sighed and looked for his shirt. He found his brother under the coffee table with Miki cuddling. both were in their boxers and Roxas still had his socks. He groaned at the memory of strip poker and the number of games that had been played, not to mention the crisco twister where clothes had also been optional, he hoped his grandfather was off doing something political, as he was thinking this there was a sound of someone coming down the stairs in the hall and he dove behind the couch thinking it might be his grandfather.

Gestalt Shinra, head of the city council and one of the most prominent men in the city, was not happy when he saw his living room was full of the ruffians who socialized with his granddaughters. They were all nearly naked and there were smears of something on the furniture that were apparently Crisco from the empty jar on the coffee table. He saw the elder of the two girls in her robe beside one of the sofas the younger was on the sofa with her latest boyfriend.
"What is going on here?!" he demanded waking most of the teenagers, Namine got up and smiled at him turning the charm up to full force she hugged him good morning.
"Nothing grandfather just a little celebration."
"For what?"
"Well YuRiPa got a music deal and the rest of us were so happy we partied at the club then came back here because we have the largest living room."
"Fine, but get them out of my house."
"Yes sir."
He stormed off and the group scrambled to gather clothes and get themselves together.
"I should head home anyway father is starting to think I'm a bad example for Garnet." Yuna smiled at Larxene.
"You a bad example? Yunie never!" Rikku chirped.
"Now those people she hangs around with.." Paine muttered.
"Yeah later Larx."
"Bye guys see ya at practice." Larxene called as they left.

The band followed behind the girls Demyx stopping to kiss Larxene.
"Later babe."
"Later."

The boys were the last to leave along with Kairi, Hyne and Orlette.
"Sure you don't want to stay for breakfast?"
"No, Cuz grandpa kinda makes me lose my appetite." Roxas smirked and walked out after hugging his cousins.
"Later." Sora called following his brother.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Demyx grabbed his bag out of the back of Marluxia's truck and frowned at the small car in the driveway, it wasn't their parents' Caddilac it was a little piece of junk. He waved to his bandmates.
"You know Demyx you could still move in to the apartment with us Xexion probably wouldn't care." Marluxia told him.
"Nah Vex needs me around here I think."
"Besides the fact he can't cook." Lexious said monotonely.
"True later guys we should rehearse tonight."
"Right we'll be by to pick you up for it."
"Later."

Demyx sighed as he unlocked and opened the door to his house. "Mom, Dad. Vexen?!" he called.
The house was quiet and pretty empty. the living room looked like no one had been in it for weeks and the rest of the house wasn't much better. He and Vexen were by themselves and had been for two months while their parents were on their second honey moon at Gold saucer. Vexen was often at work or with his co-workers and Demyx was always busy with his band and working at the Oblivion. normally they went out or one of their friends brought food over though Demyx spent alot of time at Larxene's or Marluxia's for meals.
His older brother came out of the kitchen scowling he wore a dark suit and his long blonde hair was tied back in a ponytail.
"Where have you been?"
"Larxe's we all crashed their last night after the club."
"So you've eaten?"
"Nope her grandfather kicked us all out before breakfast."
"Fine one of my co-workers brought breakfast by."
"Great so where's Xexion?"
"Apparently he's not going in tonight." Vexen lead the way to the dining room.
Pence sat at the table with a box of doughnuts and a pot of coffee he was drinking a cup.
"Hey Pence."
"Hey Demyx sorry I missed the gig last night."
"It's okay I think having to take my brother in for work is bad enough." they shared a grin and Vexen cleared his throat."
"That's enough Demyx."
"Okay."
"We should go."
"Right later Demyx."
"Later pence, Vexen have fun."
"You too."

Yuna waved as Paine and Rikku drove off. She lived a few blocks from Larxene in another large house with her father and little sister. She smiled as the door opened and a large blue furred cat-like humanoid opened the door to the house. He wore only a pair of pants and had the stump of a horn in the center of his forehead. He seemed to always be frowning but was a nice person. He was a Ronso, one of the mountain people who were rarely seen in the city , he was an old friend of her father's and played body guard when he had public appearances.
"Yuna home."
"Hi Kimari sorry I didn't come home last night but the others wanted to crash at Larx's so I had to join them."
"Had too?"
"Well, you know the group dynamics."
"Garnet?"
"No she wasn't there but didn't they have a rehearsal last night too, she probably stayed at the theater with the others." she entered and Kimari followed.
"So where's daddy?"
"Meeting."
"Again? alright I'm going to take a nap and I have a shift at the butterfly tonight."
"Good."
She headed up to her room.

Rikku waved to Paine as she drove off and walked up the drive to her house entering the open garage to see her brother and his best friend pouring over the ancient engine of a broken down car. One thing their family shared was the enjoyment of tinkering with machinery.
"Hey, Brother Buddy."
"Rikku were have to you been?" her brother demanded seeing her she smiled and sat on the edge of the car.
"Larxi's everyone was there it was almost as good as Yuna's bashes, which reminds me the end of summer parties this weekend."
"Right we'll be there." Buddy smiled.
"Bringing Rosa?"
"Yeah of course we've only been dating for two years."
"Lucky Bastard."
"Hey you bombed on her and Paine neither of them are my fault." He pulled at a couple of wires and frowned.
"Poor thing." Rikku smiled and jumped down and sashayed into the house.

Her mom and dad were in the dining room finishing up breakfast.
"Rikku you're home, how was the show?" Shera, her mother asked.
"Great, we all crashed at Larx's last night after wards and planned the end of summer bash, it'll be the best it's this weekend."
"About time you figured out when you were doing the damn thing." Her father Cid muttered.
"We had to schedule around everybody Pops."
"Fine, eat your breakfast, we have a lot of work in the garage and your cousin and Daryll called off again."
"Right."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Paine smirked as she parked the car next to her father's and walked into the apartment building her family lived in. As she opened the door to the apartment she moved slightly to the left and grabbed her little brother by the wrist flipping him over her shoulder and into the wall beside the door. She held him for a moment.
"Good morning sister."
"Morning brother."
"Not bad, but your grip is sloppy." A woman's voice spoke from deeper into the apartment and their mother walked into the room.
She had dark hair and eyes and was slim she didn't look past thirty or like she would have twin seventeen year olds or seventeen year old grandchildren either. at thirty four she was still a beautiful young woman but much calmer then she'd been at their age.
"Yes mother." Paine dropped her brother and bowed to her mother.
"So how was last night?"
"Wonderful."
"Great come and have breakfast both of you."

Their father was at the table, he had long black hair and red eyes like his daughter's. Edge had taken more after their mother while Paine was alot more like their father.
"Paine."
"Father."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Squall didn't look up as Kairi walked into the house, he had brought over the book from the Butterfly to try and make his brother actually do some work on the store that they both were supposed to be running. Zack on the other hand stood up and greeted his daughter.
"Hey Kairi, how's my favorite girl?"
"I though that was mom?"
"Well, both of you are."
"Right daddy."
"So have fun?"
"Tons and we are having the party this weekend coming up."
"Great."
"Hey Uncle Squall." she smiled and hugged him.
"Hello Kairi, Have I ever told you I'm glad you are nothing like your father?"
"Often."
"Squall be nice." Aerith smiled bring out breakfast.
"Yes Aerith." he sighed.
"So Squall aside from the party when is Lulu's wedding?"
"Next spring before the Blitz season starts."
"Of course."
"Where's Vivi?"
"Rin has him, she and Selphie are going shopping this morning."
"Ahh."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hyne walked Orlette to her house and she smiled.
"What is it?"
"Doesn't Roxas look so cute with Miki?"
"Yeah they go well together I guess, way better that bro and the asshole."
"You really don't get along with Seifer do you?"
"Should I? come on Orlette he's an ass."
"True he is a jerk but obviously your brother loves him for some reason and you don't have to date him."
"Nope I have the greatest girl ever."
"Flatterer." she blushed and held his hand tighter.
"Of course." he kissed her cheek and she headed up to her home.

Hyne continued on to his apartment and sighed as he heard odd noises from his brother's room he simply went to his room and put on his headphones to listen to some music and finish his summer report.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sora opened the door to his house and was knocked over by a large ball of silver and white fur which turned out to be his father's dog, a husky chow mix with bright blue eyes.
"Down Fenrir, off good girl don't eat me." Sora tried to push he off as she licked his face.
"Fenrir off come on." Roxas pulled on her collar and finally succeeded in removing the dog.
"Something tells me dad;s not home."
"But his bike 's here."
"But he must have gone out cause if he was here she'd be with him."
"Guess so, i'll take her to the back yard."
"all right."
Sora took the collar and dragged her to the yard as Roxas went in and looked around not finding his father or a note he sighed and went to see what was on TV.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Riku opened the door and entered his house Miki only a step behind him. He saw no sign of their father even though the man's car was in the driveway.
"Pops?" he called, getting no answer he shrugged.
"Guess he's not in."
"Or napping he hasn't slept much you know."
"Yeah dad needs some body."
"Yeah I know, he does."
the two teens headed for their rooms deciding to nap on Riku's bed.

Sephiroth woke from a very comfortable sleep hearing his elder son call for him but he really didn't feel like moving. The lump curled up to his chest moved.
"I think your sons are home."
"They are."
"Okay." A light kiss grazed his cheek and blond hair tickled his neck.
"Should we get up and see them?"
"Later, it's warm here."

A little while later Sephiroth got up to make something to eat, he grabbed his pants and headed for the kitchen to make something to eat. As he was cooking Riku wandered in half asleep still and saw his father standing infront of the stove shirtless with bite and scratch marks on his torso and one nice hickey on his neck.
"Hey pops you're home."
"Hello Riku." He looked over at his son. "Is there a problem?"
"No but it looks like you were attacked by a vampire."
"I was not attacked by a vampire Riku."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes."Cloud wandered in in only a long shirt and his boxers.
"I see." Riku walked over to Cloud and stood infront of him arms crossed. "What are you intentions toward my father?"
"It's more like what are his intentions towards me Riku." he told the boy. "But sex mostly."
"I see." He lifted on eyebrow in a perfect if unconscious imitation of his father.
"Does this bother you? his father asked.
"Nope on the contrary pops you need someone besides me and Miki. "
"Why do I have the feeling the two of you have been talking about this?"
"We have been." Miki entered passing Cloud.
"Seph your son's scare me sometimes."
"Try raising them."
"So are you two an item yet?"
"Yet?" Seph looked at his younger son who was smirking like he knew something.
"Yeah it's been obvious for weeks now."
"Yes we are dating Miki."
"Good."
The two men exchanged a glance and smiled, at least two of the boys didn't care. Sora and Roxas might they had not been sure how to tell the four of them but them walking in on it seemed to be the best approach for Sephiroth's sons at least.
ther was a knock on the door and Riku went to answer it finding cloud's sons there.
"Hey riku." sora greeted. "Have you seen our father."
"Hey, yeah he's in our kitchen."
"Why?"
"Ask him."
the two younger teens followed him to the kitchen, the others were sitting down and three more plates were set out.
"hey pops."
"Sora Roxas."
"Why are you in one of pops shirts?" Roxas asked their dad.
"At least they're already calling you pops." Cloud muttered and the brunette and blond stared at the two adults for a moment.
"What are you talking about?" Sora asked taking a seat.
"we have something to tell you boys." Cloud began.
"are the two of you having a affair?" Soar demanded.
"Not an affair Sora a relationship."
"Relationship?" roxas looked at his dad and over at Miki. "but what about Miki and me dating?"
"even if we are in a relationship the two of you are not blood related Roxas it wouldn't be a problem."
"Okay."
"any other surprises pops?"
"We were contemplating moving in eventually, Cloud's house is larger then ours."
"when?"
"Not yet maybe during one of your breaks.
