[Feels his mouth twitch into something like a smile when he hears that humming, so he does get it, a little bit. Not really wanting to pull back, he just tilts his head to look up at him.]

Not really. [regardless - he likes this, calm and unhurried and just them being, well, together.]

[he raises an eyebrow in surprise at this- but it's a pleasant surprise nonetheless.]

Then I won't. [whether he'll admit it or not, Axel likes it too. It's nice to be able to just stand here and hold his best friend in his arms without having to worry too much about everything else. And so he merely sighs contentedly, and rests his chin on Roxas's head again.]

Good. Actually .. I'm kind of surprised you haven't teased me yet so far. [Without anyone interrupting, without lust clouding it, without anything else - this kind of moment is something Roxas has been craving all along. A moment of just .. peace. He stays for a moment like that - then shifts briefly, tilting his head back to press his lips in another not-kiss to Axel's jaw before tucking his head under Axel's chin again.]

[laughs softly at this.] Nah, I think I'm gonna give you the day off from being teased. Unless you'd like to be. [It's a nice piece of peace, and Axel is determined to make the most of it. He isn't going to let go of Roxas until he has to- and quietly hopes that it won't be in a hurry, because this really is nice. Another soft noise of contentment leaves his lips, and he begins to rub soothing patterns on Roxas's back, just drinking in the tranquility of the moment.]

... no, I'm good for now. Really. [Luckily for Axel, Roxas has absolutely no plans on letting go or moving anytime soon - this is .. nice, now. As it is, he's not particularly looking foward to the moment when they actually do have to break apart again. Still, he can't help a muffled noise - like "mmmmf" - when Axel starts rubbing his back, and buries his head in Axel's chest as a result, melting a little bit. It feels really nice, but like hell will he admit it.]

I thought that you might say something like that. I think you're the one that's getting a little predictable. [And it seems that Axel is becoming a quick learner when it comes to the younger Nobody's likes and dislikes- he can tell that Roxas is at least enjoying the caresses a little bit, and keeps them up. They both need to take time out and relax from all that's been going on, and this seems like a good enough place to start.]

Hey, that's a little unfair. Who in their right mind would say yes to being teased..? [alsdkjfh a little bit would be an understatement; he's entirely leaning against Axel now, kind of boneless, and even sighs, though it's faint. It's the kind of thing that, under any other condition, might put him right to sleep. As it is, he snakes his arms up from Axel's waist to wrap them around his chest instead, hooking the fingers of one hand over Axel's shoulder for a better grip.]

If it's friendly teasing, I don't see why they'd object too much~ [and in response Axel keeps holding him, moving his arms up a little higher too so that he can hold Roxas better, so that they're more comfortable. He leans down a little so that he can rest his head in the crook of Roxas's neck; not nuzzling him. just wanting to be a little closer.]

Well, maybe if they were enjoying a little peace and quiet for once without being called "cute" or "handsome"... [is grinning a little, though Axel may not be able to see it - he'll hear it in Roxas's voice, though. Stretches a little bit in this new embrace, dropping his arms so he can wrap them around Axel's neck instead. He tilts his head back a little at the feel of Axel resting against his neck and ends up dropping a sortof kiss on his ear.]

If you don't want me to call you that anymore, I won't~ But even if I don't say it, the truth is obvious enough. [he sounds far too amused for his own good; it's nice to be able to joke around with Roxas like this. And having Roxas happy is a huge plus, too. His breath hitches in his throat a little from surprise- and responds by pressing his lips against the other's neck gently. Oh-so gently. Not quite in a kiss, because he's promised. Just enough to show his appreciation.]

I'm kind of used to being teased by now, but that doesn't mean I have to take it lying down. [rolls his eyes, but honestly, he's having fun with it too. He straightens a little, though, when he hears Axel's breath hitch and feels those lips against his neck -- a shaky sigh escapes him and he has to duck his head down to nudge Axel's up. He keeps at this until he's gotten Axel to lift his head enough so that he can press their foreheads together.] I want...

Will you take it standing up, then~? [Nope, he's never going to give up on teasing Roxas about that. Never ever. Well, at least never after this moment; he stops for the time being at least, just to pay attention to what Roxas is trying to do. He sighs a little in disappointment when he's moved from his comfortable position, but he willingly co-operates.] You want what?

[just rolls his eyes at that, but for the moment, he's more interested in finishing what he started. He hesitates, looking down for a moment.] ... this. [tilts his head up and kisses him, almost impossibly gently -- he knows he probably shouldn't be doing this, not now, but at this point he nearly can't help it, he wants it so bad.]

[Axel knows that he shouldn't be doing this either- but nevertheless he kisses back just as gently, taking it one slow step at a time. Rushing things is what got him into this mess in the first place.]

[he doesn't keep it up for too long -- but he does press in, kissing him deeply, just for a moment before breaking it off, though he doesn't make any moves to back off entirely. Still, he has to shut his eyes for a moment, resting his forehead against Axel's again, as he reigns his body back under control.] ... sorry. When can we..?

[he definitely makes the most of the kiss while he can, and returns it with equal want and need. after the kiss is broken, though, he goes back to holding Roxas just like he did before, willing himself to be in control again.] Don't apologize, you've got no reason to. When can we what...?

[actually makes a frustrated noise and gives him a look, just heated enough to get across what he means, as he doesn't quite trust himself to put this into words at the moment.]

[smug bastard is smug! he gets what Roxas means immediately, and boy does it increase the size of his ego.] Whenever you want.

[alsdjkfhls immediately gets a little - sulky? huffy? - whatever, but only because he knows he wants it and he totally can't deny it at this point. He almost kisses Axel again right then and there, but forces himself to hold off.] .. should we? Since everything isn't .. totally final, yet.

[presses a light kiss to Roxas's forehead, and then looks him in the eyes. He looks a little serious, because this is a rather important decision to make.] It's your call, Roxas. I'm willing to, but... only if you are. I'm not pushing this.

[just looks up at him for a long moment in silence, his expression shifting subtly as he thinks this all over very, very carefully. Finally, after some time, he nods, more to himself than anything.] Okay. [As an answer he only leans up and kisses Axel again, deeply, not in any hurry.]

[seems a little surprised, but more relieved, at Roxas's answer. He huffs out a breath softly, and smiles a little.] Okay then. [Makes a small contented noise and kisses Roxas back, tightening his hold on him just a little. He's in no hurry either; just like before, he's going to savor every moment of this.]

[He actually smiles a little into the kiss, unable to help himself at this point. He cinches his arms a little tighter around Axel's neck for leverage as he leans up and presses himself into this kiss for all he's worth. After a moment one of his hands sneaks its way up and tangles itself roughly into Axel's hair.]

(we keep spamming other people's posts with this. we're horrible. ♥)

[And oh, nothing has felt this good before in his life. Feeling slightly more daring now, one hand moves to Roxas's waist, fingers slowly inching up his shirt and gently caressing the skin there. More to relax him than to get him worked up, though.]

{~~being horrible has never felt so good.~~ that we are. ♥ Maybe they just need their own dedicated to this, oops.}

[He makes a soft noise, letting out a breath at the feel of Axel's hand on his skin, though he doesn't break the kiss. He does, however, take the caress as encouragement enough to wind both hands into Axel's hair - none too gently, though not hard enough to hurt - and kiss him harder, much more eagerly this time. Oh, he's relaxed, alright.]

(~~this is wonderfully, deliciously true.~~ B) ♥ ... p-probably, the way this is going. I need better icons for this aslkdfja *dies* AND I HAVE TO LEAVE, DAMNIT. w-will tag back asap~)
