Marluxia walked down the hall. He was thinking very hard. It was about Vexen .
'Did he really like having him around' was the big question on his mind. He thought that because every time he tried to do something with Vexen. He was turned down. Every time he was away from Vexen, he wet into deep thought about this. 'Does Vexen love me?' Marluxia walked into the door of Vexen's lab.
Marluxia opened the door and walked in. Vexen didn't look up. He was busy in an experiment that required a lot of concentration. Marluxia walked over and hugged the chilly academic. He froze. "Number eleven …get off this instant" Vexen said, almost shouting at the other. Marluxia looked like a kicked puppy. "I…I thought you loved me…" he replied.
"We can not love, we have no hearts" Number four replied, sternly as well as very harsh.
A tear fell from Marluxia's face. He whispered sorry and left the lab.
The graceful assassin did not know what to do with himself. It was painfully obvious that Vexen didn't love him. Marluxia walked down the hallway and into his room. Tears were falling down his cheeks. That was the last time anyone saw Marluxia all day.
Vexen sat at the dinner table. Everyone was looking forward to dinner. It was number three's spaghetti and garlic bread, served with wine of course. Marluxia was nowhere in sight. He thought about the one and Marluxia, even though he didn't really want to. Vexen couldn't think of a reason to forgive him for this morning. The man could have killed them. Something in his mind wouldn't stop him from thinking that something bad would happen."may I be excused, Superior?" Vexen asked .
"yes" was the reply from Xemnas. Vexen stood up and portaled to Marluxia's garden. No where. Vexen dodged the man eating plant and left the garden. Vexen portaled to the proof of existence and knocked on the door. No answer. Vexen turned the doorknob and of the door. Locked. Vexen's eye twitched. He then portaled into Marluxia's room. He paused once inside.
Marluxia was laying face down on the bed. His hair was a complete mess. He loved his hair as much as his plants. This was odd to see.
"Marluxia …."Vexen said, walking over to the bed side. Marluxia didn't move, look up, or respond to Vexen. Vexen went to the bathroom and got the brush off the counter top of the bathroom, bringing it to the bed and ran it through the Graceful Assassin's hair. Marluxia ripped it out of Vexen's hand and threw it across the room.Vexen blinked. "what's wrong?" he asked tilting up his head. Tears. Vexen tenderly brushed the tears from his face "Marluxia….what's wrong?" Vexen repeated, more tenderly, touching Marluxia's pale wet cheek.
"Back at the lab…you said that you didn't love me" Marluxia choked.
Vexen blinked. So that's what this was about.
Vexen kissed Marluxia who pulled back slightly.
"I love you, only you" Vexen said.
Marluxia let a slight smile cross his face.
"I love you and only you" He said as he kissed Vexen
That night they laid in each other's arms in a blissful night's sleep.
