Disclaimer: I borrowed my friend's copy of KH2. Don't sue, please?

This is my first fanfic, so no flames, please??? Also, I don't own the song "Cat and Mouse" By the Red Jumpsuit Apparatus. Just a warning.

I didn't know why Demyx flinched whenever people touch him. He's not cutting himself, I know that much. He's never really liked people touching him, according to Sora and Roxas.

He never talked about his parents, either. I tried asking the twins, but it always ended badly.

"Keep out o fstuff that's not your business, Zexion."

"B-but he's my friend," I stammered. I was getting tired of this. "I'm worried, therefore, it's my business." Not to mention I was secretly in love with him.

Roxas glared daggers at me. "Then why don't you invite him over to your house? Watch a couple of movies, and then spring it on him. He wants to tell you, I'm sure of it. He can't rely on Sora and me forever, and he needs to leave the house."

This made me curious. I wrote Demyx a note in my next class, and it was probably the longest note I've ever written.

Dem,

Do you want to come over and watch movies after school? We need to talk about things, too. Blame The Twins, they're the ones who got me curious.

Zexion.

He replied hastily. The class was entirely too cooperative for their own good, and passed it on between us with out looking at it.

Zexy

Of COURSE!! And I'll kill The Twins, so don't worry about it. I knew that you were going to ask about my home life sometime, so I'll write it in a note later.

DEM

Was I that predictable? Did The Twins tell him ahead of time? The world may never know.

The next two periods went by slowly, and not because they were the two before lunch. When I got to the theater, my rock-emotions almost cracked. I thought I was going to cry.

Zex,

The reason why I shy away from people, and especially you, is because my parents beat me. They beat me because I'm Bi, and my entire "Clan" treats me like shit. My Aunt, Uncle, Roxas and Sora are the only ones who treat me like I'm human. I'm the heir to the family fortune and business, so they think I should be perfect, so I should be straight, as well. I hate my pitiful existence. I force it on others, and that just makes it worse. What pushes me over the edge, is that I force it on YOU. The Twins are gay, but since they're branch family, no one cares. Their parents house is usually where I go if the beating gets too bad. My Aunt tries to comfort me, but the truth is, you're the only one who ever gave me comfort and peace of mind. Zexion Cheval, I'm in love with you. I just didn't want to ruin our friendship. If you don't love me too, I'll understand, I just want to remain friends.

Love,

Demyx

P.S.- Can I still come over for movies? I want some of your dad's cookies, too. They're YUMMY!!!

I didn't reply to his note, just nodded to him from across the room. He knew what it meant.

I had the new xxxHOLiC movie all ready to go when Demyx came. I opened the door, and enveloped him in a tight embrace. Now, I'm not the most musical person in the world, but apparently I can sing. And the line I chose was the thing I had ever thought held a lot of meaning.

"You said, you said that you would die for me… you must live for me too."

I then pulled him down into a deep, passionate kiss. Dammit, why does he have to be taller?

We watched the movie in peace, munching on some of Dad's cookies while we cuddled on the couch. We fell asleep during the movie.

Yes, I know, it was a crappy ending. Remember: it was my First Fan Fic, and I'm only 13.

Reviews and constructive criticism are greatly appreciated.
