A/N:
Zexi Pov
How could I be so stupid? Me,Zexion, emo-boy-extroadinaire thought that Namine, pretty-popular girl, would go to prom with me. How stupid can I get? To believe that someone like her can love a loser like me? I mean why would she give up on her ultra cool boyfriend, Roxas?
But Zexion I don't love him. I love you. I hope you feel the same way.
Yeah Whatever. That's what you said. I thought you were different but I guess that's what a loser like me gets for giving a popular girl my heart. You broke my heart, Naimne. You were the first girl I loved and the last one I'll ever love. 'cause if love feels like this then I don't want to be in it. Shit…there I go being "emo" again. I sigh, ignoring my melancholic thoughts and watch as everybody but me is having the best prom ever!
I glance as my pal Kairi and Sora dance the night away. Everyone's watching and applauding them. They're perfect together. Smiling at each other in harmony. I should be boiling with jealousy but I just can't succumb to it. The angelic side of me is hoping that someone is out there for me. Strangely part of me wants to believe that.
"Zexion", I turn to whoever is calling me. It's Axel. He's sharp tonight dressed in a black tux with a red shirt and black tie. I was surprised to see him there. Many kids at school are not too fond of homosexuals.
"Hey Axel." I try not to sound disappointed but it doesn't work.
"Why the long face?" Axel questions.
"Haven't you heard I got stood up." I say it like it's nothing.
He gasps. "Namine stood you up?"
I nod. "I'm sorry to hear that."
"It's okay it probably would have not worked anyway. I'm surprised you're here who are you with?"
Axel blushes slightly. "It's a secret. I'll tell you if you promise not to tell."
I nod making him come forward whispering in my ear. "Demyx"
"Wow,I didn't know he was gay!" I practically yell. I couldn't.
"Shh…not so loud. He's a closet fag."
For the first time tonight I laugh. Who'd ever thought popular guitar player Demyx was gay?
"Y'know Zexion I used to think that there was no one out there for me out there is" He says wishfully. "So don't give up! God made someone for you! " Then like a leaf he blows away just like that.
Then after that he leaves, those words lingering in my head. It's hopeful but I'm still hurt. I don't know if I'll ever get over Namine.
So for the rest of the night other than wishing I wasn't here. I ate snacks. Lots of snacks-a ton actually! Okay maybe more like-two pounds of chips, four cups of chocolate from the chocolate fountain. By the end of the night I'm sure to have gained at least three pounds.
Kairi takes a break from dancing to eat snacks. I strike up a conversation. "How's it going?"
"Great. Did you see me out there? I'm totally breaking up a sweat."
We laugh. Kairi was so beautiful, I've always liked her but never struck up the subject of being her boyfriend and girlfriend. It probably NEVER work besides she's my best friend I never would want to jeopardize our friendship. She asks me how my night is going so I tell her about the Namine thing.
"I'm so sorry." She apologizes as if she's done the hurt.
"It's okay. No worry. How could she like a loser like me." I sigh holding my head down.
"You're not a loser." She puts her hand on my back.
"Yes I am. You're just saying that to make me feel better."
"No, I'm not. You're smart and thoughtful, polite. You're the perfect boyfriend I just wish some people would see that!"
I couldn't believe my ears. "you're better than Roxas or any of those popular boys. Namine's crazy to give you up for that jackass Roxas."
"You mean that?" Well duh of course she meant it idiot!
"Yes Zexion I love you!" She pulls me into a kiss. Into a whirlwind of feelings Namine means nothing to me anymore. Kairi's lips are like falling into a field flowers on a sunny day. Then suddenly Kairi pulls back.
"No. I love you,too." I don't know what came over me but I kissed Kairi with all the feelings that dwelled in me. Nothing didn't matter anymore-Losers like me can get the pretty girl in the end.
