"I'm not too sure where to start here...

So much has happened in the past three weeks, life feels like a blur of motion, passing me by, and only I remain resolute...

I should probably begin from the beginning, that would make the most sense..."

Day I ~ The Beginning

I thought that today might be different. That, somehow, my life might change for the better, even just a little.
But, it seems, that it isn't going to happen, at least, not anytime soon. Today was my first day of university, being fresh out of high school, and a young, eighteen year old. I wasn't naive. however. I had experienced horrors of this world, those which I would not - could not, speak of. I looked at myself in the mirror, attempting to fix my hair up, as the shower flattens it repeatedly. I laughed at myself, sardonically, and thought to myself:

'Why am I doing this? What can I possibly hope to achieve here, I'll be surrounded by the same people as I always have been...
Well, I suppose that this is a small comfort...
They will still tolerate me, after all, so it won't be that bad, I'll be surrounded by people I know, and people who I like.
Just the four of us, it'll be fun, if socializing is fun, that is...'

While I thought I was thinking this, another teen, with red spiked up hair came up and stood by the entrance to the door.

'I'm just a small comfort, am I, Zexion? I thought you liked being around with us.' enquired the red-headed man, with a glint in his deep emerald eyes.
'I do like being around you, Axel. You... Roxas... Demyx... you're all great friends. It's just, well, I'm not sure about this...' I stated, shocked for but a second, until he realized that Axel was joking.
'I'm just pullin' your leg, Zex! You're waaay too serious, you need to let up a little, get out there, have some fun!' joked Axel, playfully punching my shoulder.
'Hey, that hurts! I do have fun, I read, that's enjoyable for me! Besides, aren't we meeting the others up at the grounds, in ten minutes?' I countered, grabbing my satchel, with both my educational books, and my leisure books as well.
'Oh shit, we better go!' Axel shouted, grabbing me, and ignoring my protests, he dragged me to his car, taking me to school.

d.b.b:d.d:b.b.d

'I wonder if they're there yet, I mean Demyx is probably still in bed...' Axel said thoughtfully, eyes narrowed and focused on the road.
'They'll be there, Roxas would never let Demyx sleep in, with all the noise he makes, they're probably already at the school...
Anyway, when did you start caring about Demyx?' I joked, trying to remain calm at the thought of Demyx.
'Hey, don't say that about my boyfriend! He's not loud, and I should know! And, for your information, I've always cared for Demyx... in a brotherly way, of course.' stated Axel, lecherously, his mouth raising at the talk of Roxas.
'Of course.' I stated, having grown used to Axel's... open way of speaking by now.
'You're worried about seeing him, aren't you?' inquired Axel, quietly, as if we were going to be heard.
'I'm not worried. I'm never worried, am I? I stated back, emotionless.
'That's what's worrying me...' whispered Axel, as he sighed, and we pulled into the university's grounds, and whilst looking up at the tallest spire, I recalled my first visit here, at the end of last year, accepting my place here, for an History degree.

d.b.b:d.d:b.b.d

I felt so small, compared to the buildings, I felt miniscule. I shook off my fears, and went to the History office, climbing the central staircase to the sixth floor. I was struggling to control the anxiety that I felt, but I had managed to keep it under control, that being a skill of mine, being able to hide things successfully from others. Except from Axel; he seemed to always know what was on everyone's mind, and he was understanding and caring, despite his lecherous acts. He was the only one who knew all of my darkest, deepest secrets. Shrugging off thoughts of self-doubt, and deceit, I strode over to the double door, that barred me from the History professor. Mustering what little courage remained, I knocked on the doors, politely awaiting entry. The door then opened to reveal a blond haired man, potentially in his thirties, with a slight beard, dressed in red, with something resembling a cape hanging off of his shoulders.

'Ah, our latest addition to the student body, for an History degree! Welcome, come in, come in!' the man said, ushering me inside.
'Thank you. I'm here to formally introduce myself and accept my place here in your established university.' I stated, with a blank face. A little courtesy goes a long way, I thought.
'Oh, don't worry about that, it's completely fine! So, you're entering our university, as a first-round offer... So, you must be Zexion Veirdece, correct?'
'Yes, that is correct. And, you are the History Dean, Mr. Crevel?'
'Yes, though there isn't quite such a need to be so formal with me, Zexion. Please, just call me Ansem. Is there anything else you required, I don't mean to take up your time...'
'No, I believe this counts as accepting my place here. Thank you for seeing me personally, Mr. Crevel.'
'It's no problem, Zexion, though, please, call me Ansem.' he replied, with a smile on his lips.
'Well, thank you for doing it anyway, Mr. Cre - Ansem. Until the start of schooling then.'
'Yes, until then. Thank you, and good luck.'
'I don't believe in luck, but... thank you anyway. Adieu.' I replied, attempting to sound cheery at the prospect of schooling, which isn't usually hard for me.

d.b.b:d.d:b.b.d

I shook myself out of recollections of the past, and saw Axel looking concernedly at me.

'Are you sure you're alright, Zexion? Axel inquired, looking with narrowed eyes down at me.
'Yes, Axel, I'm fine. Just intimidated by the school's size. Let's go meet up with the others, please?' I asked, trying to keep a steady voice.
'Alright Zexion, just... just don't hurt yourself.' Axel whispers, softly.

'Dude, do you think they're here yet?' Demyx asked, impatiently.
'Yes, they're here.' Roxas stated, calmly, while smiling up at the taller blond male.
'Alright then, if you're so sure... where are they? Hmmm?' Demyx asked, smiling, with a glint in his eyes.
'We're here, Demyx. I thought even your vision was better than that.' I stated, cheerfully mocking him.
'Z-Zexion? When did you get here?' Demyx exclaimed, astonished at his inability to see them prior to now.
'Around five minutes. How were your holidays?' I shrugged, looking noncommittal.
'They were amazing, I went to the beach nearly every day, and swam for hours and hours! What about your holidays?' Demyx replied cheerfully, grinning widely.
'Mine were... good, I stayed home and read for most of them. Axel came over a few times, to keep me company, but I enjoyed my holidays. What's your degree?' I asked, inquiring with a slanted head.
'Oh, I would've thought that you would've known, I'm doing Music, wouldn't that be obvious?' Demyx replied, with a goofy grin on his face.
'Yes, I suppose that would be right. Anyway, what units do...' I inquired, walking with Demyx to the courtyard.

'Wow, I don't think Zexion would've responded quite so... positively to Demyx.' Roxas stated, with an air of understanding in his words.
'Neither, but they'll be fine. I've missed you, Roxas, I really have.' Axel stated wistfully, looking down into those deep sapphire eyes his lover had.
'I've missed you too Axel, I truly, and deeply, ha-' Roxas replied, eyes shining bright as he looked up into Axel's emerald eyes, and was ensnared, both by his eyes, and Axel's lips.
'Roxas... I love you.' Axel whispered longingly in Roxas' ear, while he held him in a tight embrace.
'Axel... I love you too, forever and ever.' Roxas replied warmly turning his face to Axel's, and kissing him deeply and strongly, tongues engaged in an intricate swordfight.
'We... We should probably catch up to them... before our first class...' Axel stated, as they pulled away from each other, feeling slightly empty and lost, as well as dazed from the intensity of their kiss.
'...Alright. But, we're being open about our relationship, no hiding it from everyone else. I mean, Zexion & Demyx know, they'd have to be blind not to notice, but yeah, I don't want to hide myself, hide us, from the world.' Roxas stated, caressing Axel's face in his hands.
'Agreed, I'm sick and tired of pretending. Come on, we better catch up to them, the grounds are pretty large here...' Axel replied cheerfully, kissing Roxas on the forehead, and after grasping his left delicate, beautiful hand in my own right hand, they set off from under the tree, walking up to the courtyard to find Zexion & Demyx.

d.b.b:d.d:b.b.d

I sighed impatiently, waiting for Roxas & Axel to arrive, and save me from Demyx's onslaught of noise. Don't misinterpret what I'm saying, I used to love Demyx, last year that was, and I still like him as a really good friend, but he does have one flaw, a gaping, noticeable flaw. When you start Demyx talking, there isn't much possibility of him not talking for quite some time. On the way up here, I had discovered that he had nearly all practical music units, with a few drama ones. Demyx said that he would like to be a professional performer, but he also does like composing his own pieces on his sitar. I've never understood why the sitar appealed to Demyx, but, I suppose the unconvential draws other unconvential things toward it.

'...and that's my inspiration for being a musician! Are you even listening, Zex?' Demyx rambled, eyes darting toward me, with his hands on his hips.
'Demyx, that pose makes you look ridiculous. And, yes, I was listening, very inspirational. You certainly know how to sell the career to someone. Hold on... is that Axel? And Roxas? Kissing? In public?' I said bewilderedly. They had vowed that they weren't going to do anything in public... So, they must have decided that they don't care what anybody else thinks...
'Zex, you still with us? You almost looked shocked, like you were going to fall into the fountain, and mess up your hair, hahaha!' Axel said, chuckling to himself, offering me a hand to stand up.
'Well, I didn't expect you to be intimate... in public. Though, I am proud of you, this should be a more accommodating place of your love, than in high school...' I responded, cheerfully, ignoring his jibe about my hair, and terrible balance. I took his hand and stood up, still feeling quite short, well, save for Roxas. He was even shorter than me, though we've at least all grown since the start of high school, Roxas hasn't, not yet, anyway.
'I decided that there isn't point in a relationship if you can't be open about it, otherwise, you may as well not have one. Being in the darkness, away from others never really suited me, nowhere as it suits you Zexion - that wasn't meant to cause offense, if it did, I'm sorry - but I prefer being in the light, being in company of others...' Roxas went on and on, and I could feel my interest in this train of thought waning, but I did think about his casual observation, that darkness suits me... As much as I try not to admit it, I do enjoy the company of others, but I've never found the one person that I'd be willing to give up my hard-earnt solitude for.
'Roxas, dear, you're rambling.' Axel stated, as he cut off Roxas midstream by kissing him deeply, each of them losing themselves in the other's eyes. Demyx then decided that he would draw attention to the pair, by giving them catcalls and whistles, attracting any other people that were around. All of them weren't looking surprised, but none of them were giving off a negative reaction to their intimacy, which was good, and confirmed Roxas's suspicion.
'Guys, maybe we should be reporting to our Deans, for our timetables?' I asked sheepishly, as I wasn't quite used to all the attention that us as a group were receiving.
'Right as always, Zexion. Shall we, Roxas, dear?' Axel stated, a smile in his eyes, a genuine one, at last.
'If you say so, Axel.' Roxas replied, fitting his arm inside the gap that Axel had created, linking their arms together as they walked off to the Economics department.
'Man, they are going to get so much attention this year... I almost feel left out. Anyway, I should get to reporting to my Dean. Hopefully, he isn't strict, I'd like to be able to relax this year! Anyway, see ya later, Zex!' Demyx replied cheerfully, running to the Music department.
I stood there, feeling slightly at unease with the world this morning, it felt different... I concluded that it was just the atmosphere of being at a university, and having more freedom and independence than I ever had. I walked across the courtyard, around to the north of the fountain, and into the 'Spire Of Rememberance'. I chuckled slightly, as I recalled that all the places here have names that correspond to the courses inside.

d.b.b:d.d:b.b.d

I walked up the central spiralling up to the sixth floor, and found the secretary there, her nameplate telling me her name was Namine Remmoy. She had blonde hair, at such a perfection that I thought she may have rivaled me for time, and care spent on hair.

'Good morning, Ms Remmoy, I was wondering where I can pick up my timetable for the year?' I asked cheerfully, flicking my hair back in front of my face.
'Yes... hold on... you're Mr. Veirdece, correct?' she asked enquiringly, whilst shuffling through a lever arch file, which had photos of students supplied from high schools.
'Alright... here you go. All you need to do is see Mr. Cre - Ansem, I mean, and choose what specialization of History you will be doing.' she replied sweetly, keeping the meeting strictly professional.
'I see, thank you for your assistance.' I replied with a blank face.

I made my way across to Ansem's office, down the hall behind Ms. Remmoy's office, and knocked on the door. The door swung open, and I saw Ansem sitting there at his desk, conversing with another student, apparently doing a History degree as well.

'Are you sure you want to do this? The course might be difficult-' I heard Ansem say, before he was cut off by the younger man.
'I'll be fine, don't worry about me.' stated the mystery man warmingly. His voice was beautiful, it swept me away, stronger than any tempest, than any wave. Consequently, while my mind was fantasizing about this man, I lost track of what I was doing, and walked through the door that led directly into Ansem's office, and walked into the man, as he was walking out, spilling his books everywhere.
'I'm so, so sorry! I didn't see you at all, I wasn't paying any attention, I'm sorry!' I said frantically picking up his books. As i was picking his books up, I studied the man. He looked around twenty, and I thought he was beautiful. He had a few ear piercings, one of which was in an intricate symbol, that looked like one off of a cover of my favourite book, a fantasy novel, Donobyo & Shalerset. His hair was a very bright blond, almost white, but more platinum coloured, with an accompanying beard. He looked a bit mischievous, and he had a pack of cards hanging out of his sweater pocket, accompanied by black tight-fitting jeans.
'Don't worry, it's fine. My name's Luxord.' the man said, in the most beautiful British accent I'd ever heard.
'A-Are you sure? I'd be h-happy to reimburse you, somehow... Oh, uh, my name's Z-Zexion, by the way.' I said, trying to keep up with conversation without my mind running away with the sound of his voice.
'Hmmm, maybe after classes today, we could go somewhere?' Luxord asked, chuckling to himself, and smiling at me.
'O-Okay, I have to get my timetable, and choose my m-major... I know a good bookstore, which has a cafe in it as well, if you want to meet up there? I said, my legs trembling at his voice.
'Alright, I'll meet you at the courtyard, at four. I can't wait... Zexion.' Luxord stated, a glint in his eye as he smiled at me, and walked out to go to his classes.
Feeling somewhat dazed, and confused, I went to see Ansem, and there were three options for specialization; Anthropology, Ancient History, and Modern History. I chose Anthropology, as it would give me an insight into how people lived thousands of years ago, and compare and contrast that to only a mere hundred years ago, to determine human behaviour. Behaviour, and psychology has always intrigued me, and has always been a passion of mine, ever since I first saw one. I thanked Ansem for his acceptance of my decision, and he asked me if I had seen that man before now.

'No, I don't think I have seen him before, why?' I asked, positively curious now.
'Because... he is my son, and whilst he is chivalrous, and kind, he can be arrogant, and you seem like a nice person, Zexion. I just don't want you to hurt him, nor you to get hurt. He is usually clueless as well, but I am not.' Ansem replied caringly, his eyes shining bright, like he had been waiting for something like this for some time now.
'Ah... I understand. Don't worry, I won't hurt him.' I assured him, leaving the room, feeling somewhat elated, and heading to my first class of the day.
'...It's not him I'm worried about...' Ansem sighed, after I had left.

d.b.b:d.d:b.b.d

'Zexion, are you joking? You met a cute guy, and he wants to see you after school, to meet up?' Axel inquired, for about the fifth time.
'Yes, Axel, for the last time, he is meeting me at the bookstore, you know, the Scrying Eye? The one I live in, that's the one I'm meeting him in. Why are you acting so incredulous? You know I don't lie about these things.' I replied, feeling a little hurt.
'Zex, I'm not, incredulss... inkredd... how do you say it?
'Incredulous.' I said, whilst eating my sandwich, having a slight moment's rest during lunch break to actually eat something.
'Yeah! I'm not acting like that, I'm just happy for you, and surprised, that's all. I don't want to see you get hurt, that's all.' Axel replied, hitting me on the back playfully.
'Ow! Well, if you don't get back to Roxas, you're going to get hurt soon.' I replied, alternating been smirking, and grimacing in pain.
'Yeah, you're right about that. You gonna sit with us, or stay here?' Axel inquired, a sense of longing in his voice.
'I'll think I'll sit with you, Axel.' I replied, smiling up at him.
Axel rushed over to Roxas, and in between scoffing down his cheeseburger, told Roxas what I'd just spent half an hour trying to convince him about.
'Zexion, that's so good, I really hope it works out!' Roxas said, hugging me with joy. I nearly fell backwards, and was wheezing with the force that Roxas was hugging me with.
'Roxas, I think you should save those hugs for Mr. Almef over there; he's almost feeling left out.' I replied once I'd caught my breath.
'Yeah, come and hug me, Mr. Grithsbens!' Axel exclaimed, at Roxas, standing up.
'I'll do more than that, Axel.' Roxas replied, hugging and kissing Axel sensually and hands roaming on his body.
'Um, guys? Perhaps, making out on school grounds, isn't such a good idea? Just an idea here? Anyway, where's Demyx?' I called out, trying to elicit some response from them. When I didn't get any, I threw my arms up in the air, and sat down, face buried in a book. I dimly noticed, out of the corner of my eye, that they were wandering over to the toilets on campus. As we sat in one of the far corners of the campus, no-one really ever came over here to check on us, so we were able to do what we wanted. Which, judging, by what Axel and Roxas were doing, the noises they were making, and the direction they were heading, what they wanted to do right know, would be to have sex in the school toilets.

d.b.b:d.d:b.b.d

Axel moaned deeply, as Roxas' skilled tongue was pervading his mouth, and his hands were roaming his body. He was indeed lucky, not just to have such an amazing boyfriend as Roxas, but that they were similar in many ways, including their sexual drive. Axel was shuddering at the touch of Roxas' cold fingers flitting over Axel's skin, on his back, on his front, Roxas was touching every square inch of Axel he could see, and most of what he could see either. Axel unbuttoned his shirt, and casually discarding it on the floor, he pulled his mouth away from Roxas' mouth, and suckled on Roxas' neck. Roxas moaned loud and deep, as Axel suckled on his neck, having not seen his lover for weeks prior to the start of university, he was in a sexual frenzy, even the slightest touch from his lover sent him into a lust-filled haze. Not that Axel minded, of course. Roxas loved all of Axel, absolutely everything. Roxas shuddered at Axel's warm mouth, and gasped deeply as Axel bit, and marked Roxas as his own. Not that Roxas cares, he didn't care what anyone thought anymore.
'A-Axel... P-Please...' Roxas moaned, unable to continue with the loving foreplay any longer.
'What do want me to do... Roxas?' Axel whispered in Roxas' ear, as he took Roxas' shirt off, exposing that slim chest of his, the product of doing some surfing with Demyx in his spare time, giving it a slight tan, but not much.
'A-Axel... I-I want you... i-inside of m-me... P-Please?' Roxas begged, shuddering, being assaulted with pleasurable sensations as Axel was sucking on one of Roxas' nipples, knowing that gently sucking, teasing and biting them did things to Roxas that no other person could, and would, do.
'Seeing as you asked so nicely, yes, of course. But first... let's help you out, shall we?' Axel inquired, a devilish grin on his face. He moved lower, laying kisses down Roxas' chest, until he got to Roxas' pants. He undid them gently, and slowly, teasing Roxas even further. His pants finally free of his legs, Axel pushed them down , past his knees onto the cold tiled floor. Roxas laid back on the bench in the room, that was used for people changing their clothes, and Axel kneeled in between Roxas' legs, taking his stiff length deep into his mouth, and began sucking Roxas' delectable seven-inch member, looking up at Roxas with his deep emerald eyes. Roxas threw his head back, and moaned deeply as Axel took him further into his mouth. His body was wracked with moans, with his legs arching up into Axel's mouth, trying to get as much of his hot, wet, sweet mouth on himself. Axel moved his mouth up and down slowly at first, teasing the tip of Roxas' engorged member with his tongue, before swallowing him deep, to the hilt.
'Axel!' moaned Roxas, now beside himself with pleasure, and began to sit up, and thrust his cock deep into Axel's mouth. Axel took it all, deepthroating Roxas', whilst fondling his balls in pleasure. He then stuck a finger in his mouth whilst still sucking Roxas' cock, and tracing a line on his cock, gently wormed the finger into Roxas' ass. The pleasure emanating from his cock, and the pleasure from his ass was too much for him, and weeks of pent up sexual fury was released, with a scream from Roxas of Axel's name, came in Axel's mouth. Axel swallowed all of the salty-sweet juice, before kissing Roxas deeply, his tongue pervading the blond teen's mouth.
'Now, Roxas, now I will be inside of you. Are you ready, or do you need more time?' Axel asked, whilst wetting a second finger, and inserting it into Roxas, followed quickly by a third, scizzoring him rapidly, whilst stretching him out for Axel's nine-inch delicacy.
'A-Axel... F-Fuck me, please.' Roxas moaned, contorting his body upward, laying down once more, with his legs up in the air, ass pointed directly at Axel's cock.
'Fuck Roxas... you're so hot, you know that. right? Axel said, controlling himself not to just plunge in and ravage his beautiful ass. He stuck his cock at the entrance to Roxas, and pushed in gently, letting out a deep, husky moan as he slowly entered Roxas. Roxas gasped aloud, at the feeling he had been craving, the feeling he had been missing, for the whole summer break. He writhed around, and clutched his ass on Axel's member, tightening his asshole. Axel moaned deeply, and pushed in a bit more, being careful not to hurt Roxas with his lust. He saw Roxas gasp open as he pushed past his sphincter, and smiled at him, as he knew that Roxas was past what little pain he had been feeling. Axel bent over Roxas and kissed Roxas, while he slowly entered Roxas fully. Roxas moaned and gasped as he has stretched fully by Axel's member, and he felt so full, he felt so right. Axel, looked at Roxas, a question in his eyes, and Roxas nodded slightly, both too far gone in their sexual throes to formulate a compete sentence. Axel slowly backed out of Roxas, whilst still kissing him deeply, tongues fighting for dominance, when Axel gyrated his pelvis, pushing his cock deep inside, right to the base. Roxas gasped deeply, and Axel pushed his tongue inside Roxas' mouth. Co-ordinating his pelvis thrusts, and his tongue's movements, Axel set up a nice rhythm for their fucking. Axel adjusted his angle a few times, and on the thirteenth thrust, Roxas moaned deeply and loudly. Axel looked at him wickedly, and continued to thrust into those nerves, Roxas'sweet spot for fucking, making him moan deeply every thrust. Axel could also feel something hard pushing up against his belly, and Roxas looked at him wickedly, pushing his tongue into Axel's mouth. Axel retaliated, by speeding up his thrusts, whilst grasping and jerking off Roxas, making both of them moan, and pant hard.
'Roxas... I'm close...' Axel warned, in between thrusts.
'Axel... So am I...' Roxas replied, in between moaning and clenching and releasing the sphincter of his ass.
Axel continued to fuck at their dogged pace, but suddenly went harder, and faster, pounding Roxas' prostrate with every thrust. Roxas couldn't take much of this, and came almost immediately, over both his and Axel's chests. As an immediate reflex to this violent ejaculation, Roxas' sphincter tightened almost immediately, causing Axel to let out a deep, husky, guttural moan, and came deep inside Roxas, panting.
The two laid there, Axel on top of Roxas, exhausted, until Axel got up, and kissed Roxas deeply.
'Roxas... I love you.' Axel stated, like an unbendable truth.
'Axel... I love you too. We should clean ourselves up.' Roxas replied, looking into those deep emerald eyes of his lover.
And with that, they cleaned up, and went to their class for the afternoon, looking fully satisfied.

d.b.b:d.d:b.b.d

Zexion had a rather troublefree afternoon, he attended his 'Cultural Awareness 101' class, and spent most of it deeply intrigued. Part of this could be due to the fact that Luxord was taking the same class, and sitting next to him. Zexion did find it difficult to concentrate between the friendly banter from the cute Luxord and his amazing voice, and the teacher discussing the basic differences between cultures, and architechture. Nevertheless, Zexion managed to get the work done quickly, whilst chatting with Luxord.
As the bell sounded, announcing that it was the end of the afternoon session of learning, Zexion and Luxord walked to the front of the school.

'So, Zexion... What sort of books do you like to read?' inquired Luxord harmlessly, eyes bright in anticipation.
'U-Um, I usually don't mind, I'm an avid reader of lots of books, though I like to read fantasy ones mainly, especially the adventure ones, where they take you to a different world with the storytelling...' I stated, as I trailed off, blushing.
'What's wrong, zexion?' asked Luxord, putting a hand on my shoulder.
'I-I just don't w-want to bore you, that's all...' I replied, feeling a little bit sheepish.
'I don't think you could ever bore me, Zexion. Come on, let's go to this bookstore of yours.' replied Luxord, smiling seriously, and sweetly as well. He opened his car door for me, it was a white Mini, which suited him.
'I must admit, I like your car. Very suitable.' I replied, smiling at him.
'It is quite cozy, indeed. Let's go, then!' Luxord agreed, and we drove off to the Scrying Eye.

d.b.b:d.d:b.b.d

We arrived shortly after 4:30, and as we pulled up, I got more and more nervous. Because I frequent this place like a ghost, haunting a large house who never will pass on to the other side, all the staff members know me, quite well indeed. I was a bit worried as to what they'd think, but then Roxas' words echoed to me:

'Why bother living a lie, when the truth is so much more fulfilling?'

Roxas told me that a week before now, but it had somehow slipped my mind. But, he was correct. Granted, I'd have to be careful, I don't want to spring it on Luxord that I like him. Luxord noticed my frown, and his brow creased, almost synchronized with mine.

'Zexion, are you sure you're okay?' Luxord asked, genuinely concerned.
'Yeah, I'm fine. Come on, I'll take you to the second floor, it's the best part.' I replied, and led him inside. The store was a lot more full than I had anticipated, but, being in January, the bottom floor, being a school supply store, would obviously be busy.
'Sorry Luxord, I forgot everyone'd be trying to get school stuff. Just, hold onto me, and we'll make it through.' I replied, looking at my feet, feeling sheepish.
'Zexion, please, stop apologizing for things that are beyond your own control. Lead on, m'dear.' Luxord said, a glint in his eyes. I immediately blushed red, head to toe, and grabbed his hand, and led him through the crowd toward the staircase. As we climbed the staircase, the second floor had absolutely no resemblance to the first. The second floor was oval shaped, with bookcases lining the walls, and creating miniature aisles to the back. In the center, there was a cafe, and surrounding it, tables and chairs where I led Luxord down, and we took a table.
'Heh... I now understand why it's called the Scrying Eye... you'd need one to find the book you were looking for.' Luxord stated, grinning, whilst taking in the sights and smells.
'Yes... and it's shaped like an eye, as well. Would you like something to drink, or eat, perhaps?' I asked, being a good host.
'Actually... I would like a mocha, if possible. And a slice of cake; you choose what type.' Luxord replied, being courteous.
'Alright then! I'll be back in a few minutes.' I replied eagerly, rushing off to the 'eye' of the room, the cafe. As I rushed off and placed my order at the cafe, I looked back and saw Luxord staring at me and smiling at me. I instantly blushed, and looked at the cafe, where the woman there was passing me my coffee.
'Ah, Kairi, thank you for that. And strawberry cake; good choice.' I thanked her, smiling.
'Zexion, good luck with him.' she stated, smiling as she tossed her hair, and kissed me on the cheek.
I walked back to Luxord, handing him his mocha, and strawberry cake.
'Ah, thank you for that. I took the liberty of getting you a book to read; 'Northern Lights'. It sounds like what you'd enjoy.' Luxord said, smiling as he accepted his offering of coffee & cake.
'Awww, thanks Luxord!' I replied smiling.
'What did you get to read?'
'I got 'The Bartimaeus Trilogy' out, it's humourous, which is good, because I do like that, and I'm expanding what I like into the fantasy realm as well.' Luxord responded, smiling at me.
I blushed, and drank my caramelatte, in between taking bites of the strawberry cake. I groaned in appreciation of the cake, and Luxord looked over the top of his book, and chuckled at me.
'You're so cute like that.' I stated without even thinking about what I was saying. As soon as he looked up, I had realized what I had said, and blushed head to toe, and hid behind my book.
'Zexion.' Luxord called my name to shake me out of my horrific reverie. I popped my head out of my book, and then he kissed me on the lips.
'Luxord?' I asked, unsure if this was real.
'I don't want you feeling bad about anything. You're too cute for that.' Luxord replied, a smile in his eyes. There was a little silence, interrupted by my blushing, and realization that I had homework from Cultural Awareness to compete, while I still had control of my senses.
'I-I should probably be getting back, to do my homework.' I replied, still trying to wrap my head around the conversation we were having. He thought I was cute? B-But...
'Okay then. I'll drop you off back home.' Luxord stated, feeling a little sad. We slowly exited the building, and got into his Mini, and we drove back to my apartment.
'Luxord... What's your full name?' I asked.
'Luxord Teim Crevel. But, you can call me Luxord, or just Lux.' He replied, smiling. We turned into my driveway, and stopped the car.
'Thanks Luxord... This was fun. Again tomorrow, unless we get tonnes of homework?' I asked, nervously.
Luxord was smiling, looking at me. 'Of course, Zexy.'
While I was standing there stunned, Luxord chuckled to himself, and got in his car, and drove back home, feeling very happy and satisfied, as did Zexion.

Author's Note: So, that was interesting for a first chapter! Where will things go with Luxord & Zexion? Will anything stop Axel & Roxas? And what happened in Zexion's past?
If anyone has any ideas, please review and let me know! Or, just review anyway, because I would love any feedback possible.

Love you all, and until next time, read well - CloudOfDarkness'sProtege

P.S. Anyone who guesses why the last names of characters are as they are, will get love, and a feature in the story! :3
