Squall ached all over from the battle with the Heartless. He was glad to be home. He walked with Rinoa to the main gate, slipping his hand into his pocket to retrieve his keycard, blinking a little. "Strange..." He checked all the other pockets, frowning. "I guess I must've lost it during the fight..." He mumbled, moving to the reception desk, pressing the buzzer. "It's Squall and Rinoa. I seem to have misplaced my card, can you let us in?"

Rinoa yawned a big yawn and nuzzled into Squall's arm, hugging it. "That's weird... I was sure you picked it up..." she mumbled, nuzzling a little more.

Once the gate was unlocked, Squall led Rinoa inside, poking his head into the reception booth. "Can I borrow a card until mine turns up? I need to get Rin to bed and then head on up to the office for awhile." He smiled as he was handed a spare keycard, it would unlock the dorm rooms and his office, but not the basement, like his own card did.

Rinoa smiled at the receptionist before heading up to the elevator, rubbing her eye a little. "I hope Seifer dealt well with Loire. He better have not done anything to him..."

Squall kissed her cheek. "No doubt he's fine. Want me to come with you, or do you mind if I go straight to the office?"

Rinoa smiled at him. "It's fine. I can deal with him. You go on and do what you have to do, sweetie." She kissed his cheek before heading off towards the dorm.

Squall smiled at Rinoa before heading up to his office, blinking at the slightly opened door. He stepped inside and flicked the lights on, moving over to his desk. He could've sworn he had left the laptop open. He opened it as saw it was logged in. He blinked as he saw the video of him and Balthier in the recently viewed documents, as well as the two empty bottles by his desk. He gave an annoyed growl. This was all he needed!! He left the office, slamming the door, before making his way to Sora and Roxas' dorm room, banging on the door.

Sora groaned at the banging, mumbling before curling more into Riku, yawning and closing his eyes tighter. "Not here!" He called out, nuzzling Riku's neck.

Roxas grumbled and buried his face in Sora's back, huffing a little and squeezing his eyes shut.

Riku blinked a little at the banging. His own head pounding as well. "Ngh..."

Squall banged harder. "Sora!! You open this goddamned door right now!!!"

Sora blinked a little. "Rox, get the door..." he mumbled, burying his face more, his hands grasping the back of Riku's t-shirt.

Roxas sighed and sat up before flopping back down with a groan. "S'open!" he called in his best 'Sora voice'.

Riku nuzzled into Sora, pulling the blanket up over the three of them more.

Squall slid the door open and flipped the lights on. "You three! Get up now!" He growled. He really didn't look amused.

Sora yawned and grumbled, sitting up and rubbing his eyes. Blinking a little, he saw all the marks on Leon. "What happened?!"

Roxas snuggled into Sora's side, nuzzling a little and watching Leon with a slight frown. "The Heartless came to the party?"

Riku sat up a little, blinking at the seemingly bright lights, burying his face against Sora's neck.

"Ugh... yes, but that's not important right now..." Squall huffed. "What's important is what the fuck have you guys been doing in my office?! Going through my personal things?! You broke in and hacked into the laptop!!"

Sora pouted a little, rubbing his eye before curling an arm around each of the two boys nuzzling into him. "Did we...?" He looked at Leon with bleary eyes.

"I dunno..." Roxas mumbled, flopping his head into Sora's lap and nuzzling his leg a little, squeezing his eyes shut.

Riku nuzzled Sora's neck more, wishing Leon would stop yelling. And that those damn jackhammers would stop drilling into his brain.

"You also stole two damn bottles of alcohol!" Squall hissed. "I thought you guys were more mature than this! Really not what I needed to come home to!"

Sora pouted more, jutting out his lower lip. A split second later that lip began to wibble and Sora sniffled before tears ran down his face as he sobbed.

Roxas snuggled into Sora, petting his hair. "Shh... it's okay, Sora..." He nuzzled at him, kissing his cheek. "Leon's just mad for now... it's not your fault..."

Riku sat up a little more. "Well... actually... it was Sora who had the keycard and who knew where the alcohol was..." Riku added, before petting Sora's stomach. "But... It was you, Roxas, wo hacked into the laptop and played that hot video..."

Squall's jaw clenched, fists balling at his sides. "I should have you all kicked out for this!!"

Sora sobbed more, trembling and breathing hard, his fists clenched in the sheets. "B-b-but I didn't... m-mean to... hurt L-Leon..." He looked over at the oldest teen, his eyes wide and shining from the tears, a desperately innocent look in his eyes.

Roxas shot a glare at Riku for lumping all the blame on Sora and him but just wiped away some tears, making no difference as more fell.

Riku continued to pet Sora's stomach, brushing his fingertips lightly over the warm skin.

Squall sighed and rubbed at his temples. He ached. He was tired. He was half eaten by Heartless. And now Sora was crying and looking at him with those damn puppydog eyes. "Ugh... Just return the keycard and we'll forget about it..."

Sora scrambled out of the grasp of his two friends and padded across the floor, looking up at Leon with sparkly eyes. He pulled the card from his pocket and held it up with shaking fingers, still sobbing as he looked at him. "I'm sorry!"

Squall sighed and took the card from him, slipping it into his own pocket. He ruffled Sora's hair lightly. "Forget it. It's done. it's over with. But the next time I won't be so forgiving... You guys went through some pretty private stuff..."

Sora pouted and sobbed more, clinging to Leon, burying his face in his shirt. "I'm so sorry!! I didn't mean to hurt you!"

Roxas leaned up on his elbow, frowning slightly. It almost seemed as if Sora was working his way out of a punishment.

Squall sighed against and kissed Sora's head. "Go back to bed. You'll have one bitch of a hang-over in the morning."

Riku nuzzled closer to Roxas, closing his eyes again.

Sora nodded a little, rubbing his eyes before shuffling back to bed and squirming up between Riku and Roxas sighing softly.

Roxas nuzzled into Sora's back, curling his arms around both of the other teens in the bed.

Riku curled into Sora's front, nuzzling him, draping his arm over Sora and Roxas.

Squall watched the boys for a moment, shaking his head with a long sigh, before flipping the light off once more, exiting the room.
