"Cmoooon Axel! We gotta go get Kaleb and go swimming!"
Demyx had been babbling about the idea of a trip to the beach for a while now, and today finally decided to act out on it. The sitarist had snagged the red-head from his room and drug him off through a portal right to Riley's door. ...Thankfully he didn't port -inside- their residence.
Tail swishing, Demyx straightened Axel's coat a bit before knocking on the door.
"Kay Axel, be good! You wanna make a good impression so Riley lets us take Kaleb with us okay?"

"Aren't I always, Dem?" Axel snickered into the youth's ear. He leaned back against the wall by the door, running a paw through the shock of red hair atop his head. He never was much for swimming, but Demyx had insisted and he wasn't about to let the boy down. Besides, the "scenery" was usually quite enjoyable.

He'd been on his way from the kitchen to the couch when the boys outside knocked. Scrunching his nose he set his plate down, taking a french fry with him, and pulled open the door.
"Dem and ...." He had to blink to remind himself that the red hair there wasn't Reno's usual spikes.

"Not...always."
Demyx snickered a bit and pawed at the fire-wielder as he moved away. Once the door opened green eyes shot from his companion back to the doorway.
"Hi Riley....can Kaleb come out to play?"
The sitarist gave his best grin and a happy tail wag, hoping to convince the other one it was safe to let Kaleb go with them.
"Oh and, this is Axel! He's my friend...we were going to go to the beach."

Axel gave the stranger a quick glance before pulling himself off the wall to offer the other his paw. "Pleasure.." Despite his best efforts to be on "good behavior", he failed to hide the cocky grin spreading across his maw.

"Uh .. yea ..." He turned around. "KALEB! People at the door want your attention."
He looked down at Axel's hand and then back at Demyx. "Why do i get the feeling that i shouldn't trust a grin like that?" It reminded him a lot of Reno and he never trusted that one. Maybe it was a red-head thing? No wait, he was a red-head.
"Beach? Hasn't that place gotten you guys in trouble before?"

Kaleb's ears perked when he heard Riley call, he had been curled up on the couch and so absorbed in his book that he hadn't even realized there was someone at the door. He quickly pushed the book off his lap and scrambled over to the door.
As soon as he recognized Demyx, his face lit up with a bright smile. "Hi Demyx! I-I wasn't expecting you to visit."

"Erm...yeah..."
Demyx's ears flattened at the memory of what had happened on the beach before. Never did he want to go through that kind of pain again.
"That wasn't the beach's fault though! Besides, I'm stronger now, I can handle it."
Leave it to Demyx to defend all things water related. The little sitarist puffed himself up a bit, trying to make himself look stronger. ...It didn't work too well.
"Hi Kaleb!!! You wanna go to the beach with us?"

Axel chuckled softly at Riley's response. "I wouldn't let them get hurt.." Naturally he made no mention of getting them into trouble or any such possibility.
His focus shifted to the timid youth as he arrived at the door. "You must be Kaleb. ...Name's Axel. Got it memorized?" He recited his trademark line with a wink, pointing to his forhead for emphasis.

He raised a brow at Demyx and shook his head. Figures the kid wouldn't care too much about going back there.
"But that doesn't mean you wouldn't get into trouble first." Yep. Somehow he knew that red head would be trouble and that proved it. Stretching he headed back to grab his food.
"If yer goin don't forget yer phone. Or to be home for dinner."

"Th-the beach?" Kaleb asked hesitantly, and from the look in his eyes it was clear that he was thinking about the last time they had gone.
He still looked nervous and scared when Axel caught his attention. "H-hi," he stuttered. After that little display, he doubted he would forget the redhead's name.
With a nervous fidget, he glanced in Riley's direction before looking back at Demyx. If his friend was willing to go back to the beach, it would be downright shameful for Kaleb to be afraid and avoid it. "I-I'll get my stuff together, can you give me a minute?"

"Yeah, we could get into trouble....but we could get into trouble -anywhere-. I don't want to be afraid of the beach because of what happened..."
Ears twitching, Demyx let Axel introduce himself and Kaleb give his reply before continuing.
"Mmmmhmm, the beach! It'll be fun Kaleb...and yeah, we'll have Axel with us! We'll be fine..."
Tail swishing, the sitarist gave his friend a happy grin.
"Of course! We'll be waiting for ya!"

Axel merely smiled as Riley caught his word's dual sided meeting. They might get into a bit of trouble, true, but there was little that the flame-wielding audio couldn't get them right back out of.

Kaleb managed a hesitant little smile, and then sprung off to get ready. It didn't take him too long to find his bathing suit and pull it on under his regular clothing, and then grab the other things he would need for the day. He swapped his glasses for contact lenses, and stuck his glasses, phone, sunscreen, a towel, and a change of clothes in his shoulder bag.
With everything ready to go, he rejoined Axel and Demyx at the door. "I-I think I'm ready now."

As Kaleb was getting ready, Demyx chattered away with Axel...or at least -at- Axel. It wasn't very often he left room for the other to even speak. But...but! He was just so happy to finally be able to hang out with the red-head again! They'd have to do this more often.
As Kaleb returned, Demyx stopped his rambling and turned a grin back to the little mage.
"Kay! Cmon!"
Tail still swishing, the sitarist quickly opened a portal and bounded through it to get to the beach.
