Okay this is for a girl on dA and also my good friend Buka2000
I hope you guys have a good christmas.
I own Marluxia and Vexen's last names, LeFlur and DeVine, but the charaters aren't mine of course.
Alas my ship had been struck badly in a storm and we had to find the nearest island or city before it was too late. We had come to an island and it was a week before Christmas, and although I myself had no family I suppose half the crew on my ship did. I should wed no women, nor have any children, by the way I speak I am gay, yes a fag as they say back in my home county.
I found myself almost blinking when my ship docked in this strange kingdom, as far as thee eye could see people were with the sex the preferred, not being forced to the opposite.
"We need to find a place to stay." I said to my crew, I was a rather rich man but I was no king, I treated my crew with the respected they wanted. I knew I had to find someone to repair my ship so we could be on our way. I went down to my quarters and grabbed a small bag of money that I could use to pay for my crews place to stay and I would stay on the ship. As a walked back onto the deck I followed my crew to an inn, slowly stepping in. I did feel like a rich person in a place like this, my clothes were made to fit my oddly shaped body and I felt both men and women staring at me.
"Hey this women is dressed like a guy, I call first dibs." Some women yelled.
I heard my crew laugh, my chef Xaldin said. "Thats no women, thats our Captain, 'he's' an explorer." The black haired man laughed.
The women came forward, she had shoulder length blonde hair and two whisps sticking up. "I still don't care, he could be my women." She growled, clenching her fists.
"Sorry to disappoint you Miss, but I don't prefer women, but men." I replied as I walked over to Xaldin handing my loyal crewmate the a weeks worth of money for their stay at the inn and a weeks worth of food. I left quickly before a brawl could break out.
There was a nice breeze out, my long hair blew in my face slightly, wisps of it everywhere as I walked up the gentle slope, only then did I happen to realize there was a castle up ahead so I decided to sit down under a tree next to the paved road.
The breeze felt wonderful as it came off the ocean, I knew my homeland was miles away, but it did make me wonder if I should head home, or stay here.
When I happened to glance up there was a tall, lean pink haired man standing in front of me.
"Evening Sir." I said politely as I could. The man blinked at me like I was insane.
"If I may ask, what are you doing sitting on the side of the road, and your... accent, you're not from here are you?" The pink haired man asked.
I looked up, my blonde bangs getting in my way, I pushed them back behind my ears. "I am from a country called Skyros and a city called Destiny Hills." He spoked clearly.
"Mmm a country far away, what are you doing in my humble country of Airuia?" Marluxia asked, looking down at the mysterious blonde man.
"My ship was damaged servilely in the storm that has just past." I replied, looking into the man's eyes.
"I see, and what is your name?" The Prince asked, wishing to know more about this man.
I looked up at the strange. "My name is Vexen, Vexen DeVine." I replied.
"Nice to meet you Vexen, I am Marluxia, Prince Marluxia LeFlur, and I must ask where are you staying?" He asked.
I looked at him with wide eyes. "M-My ship." I stuttered.
"You shall do no such thing, come with me back to my palace and we shall enjoy a feast." Marluxia said, holding a hand out to help Vexen up.
I carefully to the soft hand, allowing the Prince to pull me to my feet. "Thank-you kind Prince." I said softly.
"There is something about you, Vexen that intrigues me, as you are not a like any of the men on this island, you are polite and well groomed, and you have an accent with stories to tell." Marluxia said, keeping a hold of my hand as he led me up to his grand palace.
I too had the feeling that Marluxia different, much different to the men in my home country, and you were allowed to be gay here, and the Prince of the country had given me great compliments. "Y-You don't think I look like a women do you?" I asked quietly, looking up at the sunset.
"Of course not, I could tell you were a man, and why do you ask such a silly question, Vexen?" He asked.
"My figure makes me look like a women, when I walked into one of the inn's with my crew, men and women stared at me, I get that all the time." I said quietly, looking at the Prince's palace with awe.
"Mmm it's nice I have someone who understands me, and it's good to have someone to talk to." Marluxia chuckled, turning his head and his soft pink hair bounced slightly.
"When me and my crew arrived I noticed that their were couples how they wanted to be, you are good man to allow this, they don't in my country thats for sure." I sighed and looked up at the sky once more.
"Hey don't be gloomy, come lets head inside for a feast, Vexen dear." He smiled, lacing our fingers together as he led us through the door into the back of a huge kitchen.
I blushed, "You are so open, don't take offense to my question, but are you not attracted to women, but to men?" I couldn't help but ask, he was like the perfect catch to me, but it was whether he wanted me, he was friendly after all.
Marluxia grinned, moving me over to the table and gently pulling a chair out for me. "Ah yes but of course, but the men here only want my money not my love, or they think I'm crazy. I can't stand it how they make idiots out of themselves drinking in pubs and inn's." He shook his head.
My emerald green eyes widened, my mouth dropped slightly but I quickly nodded, "I could never do such a thing, marriage is for love not money." I said, I felt rather flustered, my usual cool and calm composure melting away quickly like ice under the desert sun. I have never felt this way around someone my whole life.
"Thats what I keep telling myself, except now I have a gorgeous man whom I have only met today telling me the same thing, surely you must stay here at the palace with me, dear Vexen?" He asked with a friendly smile.
I blushed furiously, and looked over the table to where the pink haired Prince was sitting, "Do you celebrate christmas?" I asked softly, watching as food and wine was brought in for the two of us.
"I've got no-one to celebrate it with silly, but I do go to some houses of the poorer people and give them a little more money and food." He smiled warmly.
My eyes went wide, "Wow, hardly any people do that in this world and life time, I can see you really love your kingdom." I said shocked.
"I like to keep the people happy, and it is christmas, some of the people can't support their families." He said softly, and slowly he held up his wine glass.
I blinked and picked up my carefully and raised it too. "That is fair."
"Heres to a great and long lasting friendship." Marluxia beamed.
"Heres to a good christmas." I smiled, then our glasses clinked and I brought back mine and took an eager sip from it, placing it down before starting on the nice meal in front of me, it had been weeks since I had a proper meal, let alone a nice one with someone.
The Prince smiled and watched me eat dinner. "You sure are hungry, Vexen dear, has it been a while?" He asked.
I nodded thoughtfully, "Yes, sadly I haven't had good meals in a while, and possibly why I look sickly thin."
"You don't look thin at all, you're a nice with a lovely set of hips to match." He grinned, sipping his own wine and started on his dinner.
I could feel my face redding, "I do?" I asked as I took a sip from my wine once more then went back to my dinner of chicken with fresh vegetables and a small bowl of soup.
"So Vexen, you need to tell me about why you were traveling in the first place." Marluxia smiled, watching as I went red. "And I just might add, you look really cute like that."
I went even redder, "Mmm, I was exploring countries with my crew and then we happened to hit a bad storm so we ended up here I suppose." I replied, drinking the rest of my wine and started on the small bowl of chicken soup.
"I suppose you found some rough ones as well as good ones?" He asked, Marluxia was very curious to where this gorgeous blonde had been traveling.
I nodded, "Very rough ones, we lost a few crew members there, they fought back the savages but they were killed as they had told me to flee as I'm not strong enough to fight." I said sadly, gazing out the palace window for a moment, but then gazed into Marluxia's eyes. "You've got the most captivating eyes I've ever seen." I said softly, brushing my hair back again.
He grinned at the blonde, "You've got a gorgeous pale skin that reminds me of the moonlight, you are mysterious and perfect, gorgeous emerald green eyes, lovely soft pink lips, long silky blonde hair, long lean limbs, and also I bet those lips are soft, delicate and delicious like their owner." Marluxia smiled and finished the rest of his wine.
My eyes went completely wide as I stared at him, my face had gone completely red and I was lost of words. "Y-You think that?" I soon asked.
He nodded, "I don't lie dear Vexen, you look tired as well as flustered, where would you like to sleep?" Marluxia asked, looking at Vexen's red face.
"A-Ahhh, can I sleep in your room, w-with you?" I asked quietly, almost mouthing the words, but yet sound had followed through.
Marluxia grinned and nodded, "It's a bit early for the other things, but I'm just sure so gorgeous little blonde wants to snuggle with me in their sleep." He chuckled.
I nodded and blushed slowly pushing my chair back and standing up, waiting for the Prince. I watched as he stood gracefully and came around the table and took my hand, we walked hand and hand to the first flight of stairs, I couldn't help but look up and gasp at the thing above me. "W-Whats that?" I asked, confused as I pointed at the plant.
"Thats mistletoe and it looks like I get to kiss you." He smiled, leaning forward to capture Vexen's lips with his own, still holding Vexen's hand.
I blushed and made soft noises as I kissed back, and I knew that I would enjoy this christmas.
I hope you guys liked this, I was up till one in the morning on christmas morning writing it, and also I was wondering if I should write more chapters.
R&R
I wish you all a good christmas~
