A Cat's Eye Fanfiction Inc. Production
Part 1: So It Begins…
I CANNOT emphasize this enough. Before reading this part, READ THE EXTREME NOTICE AT THE TOP!
As the game went on, it got weirder and weirder.
First of all, there was a weird dirty blonde girl with green eyes who was filming everything in one of the corners of the room. AND writing things down. Zexion said to just ignore her, but when she started laughing for the first time at some of the insane dares, everyone gave her a weird look…
Second of all, she had some sort of weird power that the others sensed. And not just magical abilities. They could tell that she had connections that others didn't. She also had a laptop with her; bright blue and lavender.
And, after a little while, she introduced herself.
"Hi! My name is Rose! And, whether you like it or not, I'm here to torture you for the next few days/hours/weeks/months/forever/minutes!" she exclaimed, shaking hands with everyone.
"Wait, what was the second to lat one…?" Cenchax asked finally.
"Never mind; I'll leave eventually! It's just I thought you'd like some help in thinking some Truths or Dares and…I have connections. Trust me…" she muttered evilly, patting her laptop. (Author's Note: For some reason, I keep spelling it lab-top, connected…I has issues…) "So, anyways, I knew you were doing this tonight, so I asked a few friends to send requests, and, TA-DA!"
Everyone stared for a little bit. She looked harmless, but looks were deceiving…and the evil glint in the back of her eyes told them that, if they tried anything funny, they could possibly experience a slow and painful death…
"Okay…it can't hurt…I mean, we're going to get scarred for life from this enough as it is…So, what's the first?" Zexion asked, though he made a mental note to keep a sharp eye on the possible yaoi fangirl. (Author's Note: !)
"Three. Slaxia, you didn't say whether to Truth or Dare it, so all of them are Dares! These go out to you, my own personal Reno!
"Xigbar?"
Xigbar looked over at the dirty blonde. "BRING IT ON!"
A twisted smile stretched across Rose's face. "You did NOT want to say that…SLAXIA! Not the person on Imeem; THE Slaxia!"
All of a sudden, a blonde with black streaks running through is hair and hazel eyes appeared next to Rose. When he saw Xigbar, he blushed. "Xigbar, your first Dare is the following:
"You must take Slaxia on a date, for at least an hour, if not longer. The date has to end with a slow dance with Slaxia, and then, kiss him ON THE LIPS. Oh, and you have to get him a super special present. If you don't do that, I have every right to send you to the Dusks!"
Slaxia turned an even deeper shade of pink, while Xigbar blushed, screaming, "NO FUCKING WAY!"
"Do you WANT to die?"
"It wouldn't be as bad…Oh, please…Not that look…" Xigbar moaned, looking over at Slaxia.
Everyone looked. Some people started going, 'AWWW!' in a very sad manner. And they had every right to. For Slaxia looked like he was about to huddle in a corner and cry. Tears were welling up in his eyes, which looked hurt and broken. His lips were turn downwards in the saddest frown you could ever imagine. And he was wincing in pain as he muttered, "Do you really hate me that much…?"
"No…no, it's not like that…Listen…I ain't in Narnia…But…I…er…" Xigbar started stuttering.
"You have a minute to decide. Take the emo-puppy on a date, or have you and possibly him," Marluxia claimed, pointing at the bands on Slaxia's wrists, "die."
Xigbar looked around nervously. He didn't want to KILL Slaxia; he liked him. As a friend. But, what if he DID take him out, and everyone claimed he was gay, and used this as proof? And he knew SOMEONE would end up taking pictures of him kissing Slaxia…
Then again…he didn't want to be responsible for Slaxia's death…
"Thirty seconds…" Rose muttered.
Xigbar looked over at Slaxia's heartbroken face as the time slipped out of his fingers…Aw, man, he'll end up hurting himself more if I don't do this…Crap…shit…fuck…AW, DAMMIT!
"Alright, alright, fine, I'll do the Dare!" he finally exclaimed, just in the nick of time.
Slaxia looked up at him, eyes shining. "R-really…?" he asked.
"Yeah, yeah, if only not to have you hurt I MEAN if only to avoid dying…erm…" Xigbar muttered, recovering quickly, but not without a blush.
"OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" the Organization started to chant. "Me and Cenchax will escort you, and make sure you do the Dare. Everyone else can watch on the big screen as I tape it!" Rose exclaimed.
"What big scre-?" Luxord began to ask, but, all of a sudden, a giant, Plasma-Screen TV was hanging on the wall where Rose was pointing. Xaldin looked at it for a moment, then looked at the green-eyed teen, exclaiming, "Where're you getting all this?!"
"Less talking, more Daring!" Rose exclaimed.
"Now, hup hup hup! Slaxia can't date himself!" Cenchax exclaimed, shoving Xigbar over to Slaxia.
"Well, technically…" the hazel-eyed teen started.
"Don't EVEN go there!" Cenchax muttered playfully.
The three (Xigbar, Slaxia, and Cenchax) walked out of the room, down a few hallways, and out of the castle, Rose filming right behind them.
"So…uh…where should we go?" Xigbar asked nervously.
Cenchax had an idea. He suddenly used his portal to disappear. Then, he reappeared with a notebook (one of Rose's) and a black SHARPIE marker (Author's Note: *laughs hysterically* Remember the sharpies, Slaxi? XD) He flipped open the book, and, on the first page, scribbled down some letters. He held up the note so that only Xigbar could see it:
'HOLD HIS HAND.'
Xigbar turned a light shade of rose, but Cenchax looked serious. He looked like he REALLY wanted Xigbar to go all out, and he'd MAKE Xigbar go all out…Cenchax kept joking about how he could enter people's minds, but Xigbar had always thought it was a bluff…
What if it wasn't a bluff…?
While Slaxia thought of where to go, Xigbar hesitantly reached down his hand. He looked over at Cenchax. Cenchax rolled his eyes and started to make the rolling motion with his hand, as if to say, 'Jut get on with it!'
Xigbar didn't nod, but he acknowledged Cenchax with his eye. He then looked at Slaxia's hand. He leaned down so his hand could reach Slaxia's, and gently grasped it, feeling Slaxia's warm skin through his leather glove. Slaxia looked up at the older Nobody, blushing in surprise. He looked away, trying to hide a shy giggle.
"Hey, I have an idea! Let's go to an amusement park!" Rose suddenly exclaimed, acting like she was completely unaware of the fact that Xigbar was holding Slaxia's hand.
"You just wanna go on a roller coaster!" Cenchax teased; he already liked this new Rose girl.
"Uh-huh! Let's go to Six Flags, and ride until we puke!"
And so, despite the fact that Xigbar didn't want to go at all, and despite the fact that Slaxia didn't like heights, all of them went straight through Cenchax's portal, and went straight to Bizzaro.
When Slaxia saw the size of the roller coaster-with its terrifying fire, its sharp turns, its height, and several other factors-he started shaking. When he saw the line, he relaxed; there was no way Xigbar would let the m stay here above the hour limit; it sadden him to think about it, but at least he wouldn't have to go on the terrifying roll-
'Hey, look, we have Flash Passes!" Cenchax exclaimed. Rose waved four brightly-colored Flash Passes in the air, each attached to a bright white string. Slaxia gulped, shaking again. The Flash Pass Line only had three other people in it…
As he waited for the dreaded moment to come, his shaking got worse, and his stomach churned. He had explained that he didn't want to go on this ride, but both Cenchax and Rose (daredevils at their craziest) were dead set on going, and Rose couldn't let Slaxia and Xigbar leave the sight of the video camera. So, they all had to go on the rides together.
Xigbar looked down to see the young fourteen-year-old shaking like a leaf in a tornado. He felt bad for Slaxia. He knew that the younger boy and heights didn't mix well…
Without thinking, he put his arm around Slaxia, patting him on the shoulder. Slaxia looked up at Xigbar, as the shaking slowly faded away.
"Don't worry. You'll be fine. And, if you're scared…" Xigbar looked over at the camera. It was still pointing directly at them, but Rose and Cenchax, who had become fast friends, were too busy chattering to notice him. He leaned in and whispered in Slaxia's ear, "I'll be there for you….I'll be right next to you…"
Slaxia blushed, but he stopped shaking, and his stomach calmed down.
There was a part of Xigbar's brain that was screeching, DUDE, WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT?!? But there was another part in him that was telling him he was doing the right thing.
They got on. Slaxia started shaking again when he was asked if he wanted to go to the front; already, he was tuning pale with fear. Xigbar took his hand and led him to the middle, Rose and Cenchax following. They all sat in the same middle cart; Xigbar and Slaxia in front, and Cenchax and Rose in the back. Xigbar took the side closest to the water; maybe that would help…
The ride started. No one paid attention to the audio. Rose had strapped the camera onto her hand, so, under no circumstances would it fall off. She was chatting with Cenchax, both saying things like, 'THIS IS INSANELY AWESOME!' or 'OMG WE'RE NOT AT THE TOP YET?!?'
Slaxia spent the entire time shaking. He was getting even paler. He couldn't help it. He dared to look down. His eye turned into dinner plates, and he slammed his mouth shut, as though it would help his stomach in any way, shape, or form…
"X-X-Xigb-bar…I…Are we…?" he dared to open his mouth to say.
Xigbar looked over at Slaxia. The kid didn't look that good…he was STILL going pale, if that was possible, and his face was slightly green…
"At the top?" Xigbar looked ahead. He was completely used to heights, since he usually was hanging upside down in the air WAY high up on the Castle's ceiling.
He could see the rise. They were almost at it.
"Don't worry! We're almost there!" he exclaimed, trying to reassure Slaxia.
Slaxia nodded. He stared at the seat in front of him, trying to keep his stomach from raging…
They reached the top.
Slaxia took one good look at the tracks.
And screamed as though he were about to get stabbed by a schizophrenic sociopath. (Author's Note: HAHA! Katana, remember this?)
They descended, screaming in terror, joy, and, in Slaxia's case, sheer horror. He immediately looked for the closest thing to cling onto other than his safety bars. Unfortunately, that one thing was Xigbar's arm.
Xigbar swore, by the middle of the ride, Slaxia had cut off circulation in his right arm, and it was quite possible that he wouldn't be feeling his pinkie for a few days…(Author's Note: PINKIE! PINKIE!…Inside joke…There're going to be Author's Notes all over the place here…)
They got off the ride. Slaxia forgot to let go of Xigbar, though he loosened his grip. He held onto Xigbar, shaking in terror, around the park, including when they went on two other rides hat weren't remembered.
He didn't remember that he was clinging onto Xigbar until said 42-year-old glanced down at his watch. Slaxia felt Xigbar's arm shift inside the circle Slaxia's arms had created. He blushed and took his arms off the older Nobody. Xigbar ignored his actions, and calculated the time. Surprisingly, the hour had passed by faster than he had imagined. Rose and Cenchax looked over at the taller Nobody. Cenchax looked down at his watch. His eye widened. Shit! Almost outta time! He whispered into Rose's ear. Rose's eyes widened. Then, she nodded.
Xigbar had run off somewhere, but he had solemnly sworn to Slaxia on his own GUNS that he'd be back in about five minutes; he just had to run off somewhere.
"Well, we'd better get everything set up, RIIIGHT?" Cenchax asked Rose.
"RIIIGHT." Rose replied. Both devils were grinning in a fashion that Slaxia wasn't very fond of…
"Um…What are you doing…?" Slaxia asked.
"Oh, nothing! Just ignore us…" Rose muttered through her teeth.
"I'll be right back…If I miss anything, you'd better get it on camera!" Cenchax exclaimed. A second later, he was gone.
"OHMYGOD HE DIDN'T EVEN MAKE A PORTAL!" Demyx screamed, back at 'Home Base'.
"His powers are developing again! He TELEPORTED!" Axel exclaimed.
"THAT IS AWESOME!" Xaldin shouted. Everyone looked over at him.
His response?
"…What? I can't shout and still be me?!"
ANYWAYS…
About five minutes later, Xigbar came back, holding a small, crudely-wrapped package in his hands. He muttered irritably under his breath, but directed it at Rose, never at Slaxia.
"So…what's in the box…?" Rose asked, implying that if Xigbar didn't shove it to Slaxia very soon, he'd be in some deep shit.
"…For him…" Xigbar grunted gruffly, shoving the package into Slaxia's hands. Slaxia blushed AGAIN. He opened the package quickly letting the paper fall to the ground at his feet.
"Honestly, why are you people such slobs?" Rose and Slaxia screamed in fear as Cenchax just appeared out of nowhere. Xigbar jumped in surprise. "Since when can you fucking come in and out all of a sudden?!" he snapped.
"Since now! And, now, dudes, and dudette, if you don't mind…" Cenchax began. He picked up the paper on the ground.
"I'll throw this away before my CDO takes over," the strange-haired Nobody finished, walking away with the bundle of paper in his hand.
Slaxia wasn't paying attention anymore. He was too busy staring at what had been wrapped up in the paper.
In his hands was a necklace, a silver chain, each individual link made of a tiny half circle. At the end of it, there was a clasp, and, at the other end, there was a gun-shaped charm, sparkling in shades of silver, gray, and black.
"It ain't nothing special…just something I found at the gift shop…" Xigbar muttered, trying to act like it was no big deal. But, the reality was, he secretly was keeping an eye on Slaxia to see how he'd react…silently hoping that he'd like it…
But he'd rather eat his own shit than admit it.
"I'll never take it off…" Slaxia breathed. He slid it around his head, and onto his neck, smiling brilliantly. Xigbar resisted a grin, but then slipped, and the tiniest of all smirks spread across his lips. Small, and hardly visible, but it was there, none the less.
"I love it…Thank you!" Slaxia exclaimed. He threw his arms around the older Nobody's waist in order to give him a giant bear hug. Xigbar jumped slightly in surprise, but just smiled, forgetting for a moment the entire Organization was watching him. A few seconds later, Slaxia's eyes widened as he realized what he was ding, and leapt off of Xigbar, blushing. Xigbar, remembering the camera and making sure his back was to it, gave Slaxia a tiny wink. Slaxia didn't say or do anything, but Xigbar could tell by the look on his 14-year-old face that he was psyched beyond measures
"NO TIME FOR THIS! YOU COME NOW!" Rose exclaimed. She grabbed Slaxia's arm and started dragging him into the portal Cenchax had made, unnoticed until this exact moment. Cenchax then grabbed Xigbar and proceeded to half-lead, half-force, half drag Xigbar through it. (Author's Note: I like using all halves…Like Sheen form 'Jimmy Neutron'…XD)
The next room took Slaxia's breath away, and had Xigbar thinking, Uh-oh…Oh, shit, here it comes…
The room was in a large hall somewhere in the local area. It was cream-colored, but someone had put up navy blue decorations everywhere, with white snowflakes glittering on them. All the lights in the room, save maybe 5 or 6, were navy, giving the room a mystical feeling, and making the normally-dull walls appear exotic shades of blue. There was a dark blue DJ set at one end of the hallway.
And the rest of the hall was filled with gay couples.
"It's the annual 'Homophobia is Gay Homosexual Winter Ball!" Rose exclaimed. She looked around, bright eyed. "Isn't that a mouthful?
"Well? Well? Anytime, now! And, we're filming, so don't try anything funny!" she added.
Xigbar began fuming. This was all too much…
Slaxia, unaware of Xigbar fuming right next to him, stared, wide-eyed, awed at all the homosexuals. "Wow…Was this just a coincidence, or…?"
"I dunno…A LOT of things happen on coincidence around me…" Rose muttered, smiling like a fox, and jiggling her cell phone in her hands.
The music suddenly chanced. Rose pressed a button on her phone. "Oh, I love this song!" she muttered.
Cenchax bowed deep down. "Then may I have this dance?"
"But…I'm the next best thing to a stalker fangirl that you're going to get…And we've known each other for, like, an hour…"
"Eh, I like you! So, do you want to dance or-"?"
"YESOHMYGAWDYES!" Rose immediately leapt over to Cenchax, put her arms around him, and started swinging around in random circles as Cenchax laughed.
'Wait…But what about the…" Xigbar muttered, but he didn't finish the comment. Better not let Rose know there was no camera on them…
Anytime you feel like you just can't hold on
Just hold on to my love and I'll help you be strong
Little did he and Slaxia know that the button that Rose pressed was a button that was the remote control to a secret camera that would follow Xigbar's every action.
But, of course, it was disguised by a 16-year-old, extremely tall and skinny boy with black hair that fell over his eyes. The button on her phone was just a button that signaled his cell phone. He was dressed in a fitting black tuxedo with a white tie and a red rose. And a camera was 'hidden' very obviously in his hands.
Xigbar picked him out easily. He glared at him.
"Sorry! No matter what you do or say; I'm stuck here filming you!" the boy, Darren, chimed, taking advantage of the fact that the older Nobody could not touch him.
BUT, little did Xigbar know that there was another signal implanted into the button she pressed on her phone…
All of a sudden, a blinding, baby blue spotlight landed on Slaxia, Darren, and Xigbar. Darren, taking the hint, stepped out of the spotlight, camera still on the two.
"How's about the cutie with the black-streaked hair and the ma with the scar dance together for this song?" the DJ asked.
"Oh, they would positively LOVE to!" Rose exclaimed, swinging around in circles still with Cenchax.
But you're so afraid to lose, and baby I can't reach your heart
I can't face this world that's keeping us apart
"Hey, you're a girl!" someone pointed out.
"I'm trying to hook up two guys!"
"Oh…well, then, carry on…"
Slaxia turned bright red, and Xigbar, for a moment, turned away from the camera to hide his pink face, putting his face in his hands. Slaxia shuffled his feet nervously.
Finally, Xigbar turned around and muttered, "…Slaxmaihavthidanc…?"
"What?" the hazel-eyed 14-year-old asked.
"May I have this dance…?" Xigbar asked again, slightly agitated. He got an elbow in the gut form a passing Cenchax. Xigbar, almost growling, bowed down slightly, looking Slaxia in the eye, and holding out a single, gloved hand.
Slaxia blushed, and gently took his hand. "I-I'd love t-to…" he muttered, half in joy, half nervously.
Xigbar straightened up. Slaxia, unable to reach Xigbar's shoulders, put his hands on Xigbar's waist, blushing furiously. Xigbar, trying to avoid eye-contact, put his hands on the blonde's shoulders. They swayed back and forth, in time with the music…
When I can be the one to show you
Everything you missed before
Just hold on now, cause I could be the one to give you more
Let you know
"Xigbar…?"
Xigbar forced himself to look down at the teenager. "What?"
"Why are you doing all this…I thought…you…didn't like me…"
Anytime you need love baby I'm on your side
Just let me be the one I can make it alright
Anytime you need love baby you're in my heart
I can make it alright
"What? No, no, it's not…Slaxia, it's not like that…"
"Then, why do you never talk to me…?" Slaxia asked nervously, looking away still red.
The one question that the scarred Nobody never wanted to answer! Of course, it had to come up when he had a camera pointed at him!
But he couldn't lie to Slaxia…
"Look, kid…No…Let me try that again…"
I look into your eyes, and I feel it coming through
And I can't help but want you more than I want to
So baby take all of your fears, and cast them all on me
'Cause all I ever wanted was just to make you see
Slaxia looked Xigbar in the eye, confusion and wonder shining in the hazel lights on his face…"Look, Slaxia…It's not like that I don't like you. I LIKE you. Er…a lot…"
Dude, just make up shit…Don't say anything you'd regret…
"I just don't want people to think I'm a pedophile…"
AGE DON'T MATTER! …Shit, where the hell did that come from?
"But…"
That I could be the one to give you
All that you've been searching for
Just hold on to my love and baby let me give you more
You know, anytime
"But what?" Slaxia dared to ask.
"But, it's just…"
Anytime you need love baby I'm on your side
Just let me be the one I can make it alright
Anytime you need love baby you're in my heart
I can make it alright
"What I'm trying to say, is that everyone would make fun of me…the law is against it…everything's against it…!"
"So, you're saying that I don't mean enough…?"
"Yes…"
Enter an extremely hurt look right onto Slaxia's already-heartbroken-enough face.
"I mean, no! No! Look, I ain't good at saying these things…I'm kinda stuck right now…"
And now there's no way out
And I can't help the way I feel
'Cause baby you're the fire and I'll be waiting right here
You know my love is real, baby
Yeah yeah yeah
"But what are you trying to say?"
"Slaxia, what I'm trying to say…Look, I have an idea. Listen to the song chorus after I finish talking. That'll make a lot more sense!"
Slaxia nodded. He hadn't even been paying attention to the song, with Xigbar looking down at him, giving him his full attention…
"Look, Slaxia, no matter what I say, or do, or how I act, or what you think…Just know that…"
Slaxia leaned in, wanting to hear more, willing Xigbar on. Xigbar, trying to convince himself that he was simply caught in the moment, and NOT because he was enjoying himself, smiled, and pointed to the speakers.
Slaxia listened…
Anytime you need love baby I'm on your side, you know
Just let me be the one I can make it alright
Anytime you need love baby you're in my heart
I can make it alright, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Slaxia blushed. "R-Really…?"
Xigbar made sure he knew which way the camera was pointing. Then, he swung Slaxia and him around, so it couldn't see his face. He winked and smiled. "You're gonna have to find that out yourself," he muttered, but his hand, which was absentmindedly straying through Slaxia's hair, was saying, 'YEEES!!!!"
Xigbar told Slaxia a story with his eye; 'I'm there for you anytime you need me. I do care. Maybe not in the same way you care…Then again…'
Even as a lone eye, it trailed off mysteriously, leaving no indication to whether Xigbar only liked Slaxia as a friend…
Or…
Xigbar convinced himself keenly that he was caught in the moment and that he just wanted to get it over with. He did NOT want to be here…
Then again…
He leaned down slowly, closing his one, visible eye, face embarrassed…
Slaxia leaned upwards, closing his eyes, heart racing underneath his skin…
Slowly, just inching…
"Come on…Come on…" Rose muttered, excitedly, still hanging onto Cenchax as they watched the 'couple'.
"A few more inches…" Cenchax muttered, smiling eagerly.
Anytime you need love baby I'm on your side
So what if I care? So what if other people think I'm weird? he thought. I am what I am. I shouldn't be ashamed of who I'm turning into. And, if no one else likes it, then, that's just too bad…
Lips hit lips.
Just let me be the one
Who thought that? Xigbar, or Slaxia? Was the kiss passionate? Will Xigbar feel anything more than friendship after tonight? If he does, will he ever let Slaxia know?
Anytime you need love baby you're in my heart
Such things cannot be explained. These questions will most likely never be answered.
But, you know what?
Sometimes, it's better if we let things just be a mystery…
It just means that we can keep dreaming…right?
I can make it alright…
Well, Reno, how'd I do?
This is actually the first time I think I've made a song fic, but I think it came out pretty good! I'm VERY happy with it, which I can't say for all my chapters…*points at someone in the background who is unidentified*
Other requests, hopefully coming up soon!
