Chapter one: The Perfect Destination
Demyx was wandering the castle thinking of what to do. Him and Axel had just come back from a difficult mission and both were worn out. He was thinking that since Roxas was gone to cheer him up by going some ware fun. Right now the redhead was moping in his room. Being smart enough not to disturb the Flurry, he wandered around gathering ideas from fellow member of the Organization. The blonde soon came across Marluxia, who seemed to be in a very good mood. He went over to him and asked, like he did all the others, what his favorite place to go was. "Why it would be Atlantica though we're not allowed to go there according to Xemnas. Oh the water is crystal clear and the variety of fish and corals are simply amazing! I love to swim around! It's breathtaking!" the pink-headed nobody explained. "A-Atlantica? I've never heard of that world before…" Demyx replied and Marluxia went into shock. "You never been there? Oh you have to go! I'd suggest going there at night though so you don't get caught." He replied then Demyx took off for the library to learn more about this new world.
"Pretty much the whole world is made up of vast oceans." Demyx said looking through some books. "Oceans…" he repeated to himself. He knew that water and Axel did not go well together. Would he come if I asked him? He thought looking through some more books. "Okay I know love when I see it." Xigbar looked over his shoulder making the younger nobody jump. Demyx's face turned bright red "Wh-what?!!" the flustered blonde asked his face turning redder by the minute. Yes he knew that it was true but how did he know? "Yes you're definitely in love with Axel, or else why would you go through all this trouble to find the perfect place for you and him to go?" he said teasing the younger nobody. Done taunting Demyx, Xigbar left the library with his newfound news. It was true that Demyx did have a crush on the redhead but he was afraid that if he told Axel his feelings that he'd reject them all together because of his feelings for Roxas. Ever since he left the Organization, Axel had been acting strange every time Demyx, or anyone else, mention his name, but other than that they had become the best of friends. Today, on the other hand, Axel had shut himself up in his room right after they got back from their long mission. Demyx thought it was because of the mission that he wanted no one to bother him. On the mission both Axel and Demyx were asked to retrieve a special item from Twilight Town. The reason it took them so long to finish their task was that Axel had gotten all angry and upset because it reminded him so much of Roxas. Demyx just made it worse by trying to help the flurry. Now he just felt bad about not being able to help Axel when he needed it most. That is why he wanted to get Axel out of this depressing castle and have some fun!
"Dem? Wake up!" the blonde was woken up by none other than Axel. It just so happened that Demyx had fallen asleep while reading. "You almost slept pass dinner, but I didn't want you to starve so I brought you something to eat." The redhead explained and set a plate in front of him. Axel sat in the chair next to him while he started devouring his food. "Thanks…Axel…" the blonde managed to get out while eating his food. When he was done he looked over at the redhead "I'm sorry that I wasn't able to help you when you were upset on the mission." He said breaking the silence. "No it's my fault I shouldn't have yelled at you the way I did." Axel replied avoiding his blue eyes. Lost in their own thoughts both of them were quiet until Demyx broke the silence "Hey Axel, I know you don't like water all that much, but could you come to Atlantica with me?" The redhead stared at him and thought about it for a few seconds. When his eyes met Demyx's blue eye's he couldn't refuse the offer. Those blue eyes longed for the ocean. He knew Demyx long enough to realize that. He often wondered it the blonde lived by the ocean in his past life. "Sure I'll go with you. I can't have you running off by yourself you might get hurt." The redhead smiled at him and the blonde's eyes lit up. "Really? You will?" he said jumping out of his seat. "Marluxia said we would have to leave at night so we don't get caught…" Axel got up and ruffled the blonde's hair. "Meet me in front of my room at 11 o' clock sharp. Don't for get your swim trunks." And with that the two of them returned to their rooms to prepare for the trip.
Hello! This is my first fanfic so please be nice with the reviews. Alas this chapter was rather short. I plan on making the second longer and have a bit more romance with Demy and Axel. As you can see I love this couple!
