Xigbar sighed and looked out his bedroom window trying to count the stars in the sky. There were so many. Maybe if he did count them he'd eventually get insanely bored and pass out.
That's all he wanted was sleep. Even though he'd probably end up awake again after dreaming of her. It's been the same ever since she joined. He couldn't seem to get his mine off of her.
"Dammit.." Xigbar sighed with extreme frustration. "I miss her.. Why do i miss her?! I see her every day but at night i can't even sleep from thinking about her so much... Dammit.."
No sooner than he stopped speaking the door creeped open and someone stepped in but Xigbar didn't bother to look.
"Heya Xiggy!" The voice belonged to Demyx. "I see you couldn't sleep either, hope I'm not bugging you or nothing.." He ran a hand through his messy blonde hair.
"Nah, it's all good.. I'm just doing a bit of thinking."
"Bout what?" Demyx sat on the edge of Xigbar's bed.
"Nothing much, just stuff." Xigbar sat up, pulling a large strand of black hair away from his face.
"Gotcha, personal stuff. You don't look right with your hair down man." The blonde laughed. "So, what's oodle, my noodle?"
"Ya ever missed someone but you have no idea why they'd even cross your mind?"
"Um, yeah. Wait. No haha.."
Nyxan too found herself in a peculiar state of longing. As she watched the sky shift from black to teal, she couldn't help but feel that there was an important part of this moment missing.
She wanted someone to chat with, even if it was just whispers. Nyx looked down at her hands, weaving her fingers together and wishing one set belonged to someone else.
It had been two days so far that this loneliness kept her awake. She immersed herself in the cerulean twilight imagining he was by her side. It was only when she pictured herself lying in his arms, being held in a warm embrace, that she didn't feel alone anymore. She didn't even blink as much as she thought of him.
It was a week later, Demyx let the details of he and Xigbar's late night chat go public after telling an inebriated Luxord all about it. When Nyxan caught wind of it she couldn't believe it. She was ecstatic! But, not that she'd let anyone know of course. She decided to confront Xig about it. To get the truth.
He confessed, a did she. There was a mutual relief, as if the two had lead wings that transformed to feathers in an instant. Never again would they face lonely, agonizing, sleepless nights now that they had the comfort of each others arms to sleep in.
