Soft echoes sounded through the white vacant corridors as Axel paced through them.

"Man where is everyone..?" he thought to himself sighing deeply; it was as if Mansex was sending everyone off on missions but him And it was majorly pissing him off. He scowled and stomped all the way to the training area to vent; throwing countless fire at the many targets; a strong stench of burning emitting from the room. He growled and started hitting a punching bag; slipping his jacket off and picturing it as Xemnas as he hit it harder.

Meanwhile, Demyx was feeling a bit uneasy as well as he walked to the kitchen to get some juice. The castle seemed strangely empty and the lonely feeling was not sitting well with him at all. He took some fruit punch and began to wander, looking for someone, anyone to talk to. If he didn't find someone soon he was going to start talking to himself! Although he thought he could probably get away with something like that considering how he usually acted.

Demyx passed the training area...and although it wasn't like him to ever want to go in there; too much violence and all, he decided an angry nobody was better to talk to than none at all. He took a big gulp of juice and slowly opened the door, to see Axel beating away his robe.

"Umm...Axel..." He muttered shyly.

Axel stopped punching and yelling curse words at the punching bag and turned around; bare chest glistening from the sweat dripping down his body.

"Oh, hey Dem, what brings you here?" Axel asked; wiping his brow and stretching slightly. That was the most fun he's had in ages. But he wondered, why on earth would Demyx of all people be in the training area. He thought he was one of those that didn't really do violence unless it was necessary.

Demyx couldn't help but stop and stare for a minute with quite the dumbass look on his face at Axel's bare sweaty chest. He had to admit, he'd never seen one of the others out of their cloaks by even the slightest bit before. He had to keep himself from drooling.

"Oh...to be honest, I was lonely" Demyx answered, snapping out of his stare and pulling the perfect puppy dog eyes.

"I can't find anyone to talk to, the castle is feeling extra gloomy today, If you want to continue it's fine"

The red head noticed the other staring at him and smirked, pretending to stretch unconsciously again to show himself off more to the little water mage.

Demyx was trying to speak, but Axel was being...pose-y. And that was not a good thing to be watching while trying to form coherent sentences.

"I...uhh...yeah." Demyx said and then realized that wasn't a sentence. At all. "I mean, yeah everyone's gone. Maybe Xemnas wants us to bond, we don't get on missions or anything a lot together, our elements don't work well with each other I guess." Demyx shrugged.

He laughed "I know what you mean; it's like it's been deserted or something. Y'know where the hell is everyone"

"I...well maybe I'd be happy to sit here and watch, depends on how much of my hair is at risk of a singe." Demyx said and giggled a bit.

Axel walked over closer a bit closer to Demyx "Heh, I don't see a single hair on your head that deserves to be singed" He chuckled "I won't be much longer."

"Sounds good, as long as you're not gonna get too into it that you lose all thought process, I'd be glad to watch" Demyx said with a little smile and sat down on the floor next to the wall, sipping his juice and awaiting the show.

Axel flashed him a smirk as he tightened his gloves and turned his attention back to the various targets and punching bags infront of him. He grinned and re-started up the punching, soon beginning to get his legs and shins involved as he started to kick.

"Stupid... Uugh Mansex!!" He muttered in-between blows.

"not... uurgh sending me.." He growled and gave it one more hard punch

"on missions!" He yelled and with that the target burst into flames; and he removed his knuckles and sighed

"Hmm…looks like that one's done for. NEXT~" He said to himself and summoned one of his chakrams, throwing it across the room to one of the last targets, which it hit on the bulls eye and immediately burst into flames.

Demyx sat there, amazed at Axels display of power and fighting skills. As he had mentioned before, they very rarely were sent together on missions, and when they were, fighting usually didn't happen. Although this side of Axel was a bit terrifying, the power was mesmerizing and Demyx had to set his juice down to just stare intently.

The others skin was glistening from the heat of the flames and the exertion of all the movement. Demyx had never really taken the time to appreciate how...beautiful -dare he think sexy- the fiery red head was.

Axel sighed. This was too easy; none of the targets were fighting back and he needed more to be satisfied.

He got an idea, grinned and summoned some nobodies. They all came at him. He quickly summoned his twin chakrams and the four spikes on each beamed with a large flame as he struck them down one by one. He did a back flip and, while in midair, brung his arms out and launched his chakrams high into the air. The pair transformed into balls of fire and burst, raining down on the remaining nobodies and finishing them off. He Landed gracefully on his feet and wiped the sweat from his brow.

Demyx started clapping.

"Yay Axel~!" He cheered with a smile. He had to admit, as much as he didn't like to fight and be in this room, Axel sure was making things entertaining for him; Shirt or no shirt. Demyx just sat there smiling to himself, completely content that he had finally found some company and entertainment to fill his boring day.

The other noticed the little blonde cheering.

"Was i good Dem?" He asked and approached him. He was glistening in sweat; his body shining and his emerald eyes held a happy glint in them as he looked down at Demyx. He smiled softly at the water charmer.

"Really...good" Demyx replied; another dazed look overcoming his once semi-intelligent facial expression. He was trying so hard not to picture Axel in bad ways, but it was just so hard to not. Axel had the most perfect body he'd ever seen.

When Axel smiled at him and Demyx's train of thought melted."Umm...uhh…" He stuttered, trying to think properly.

"Oh, so are you up for entertaining me for another portion of the day?" Demyx asked, innocently of course, no matter what his brain was imagining nothing he ever said would ever contain pervy intentions. He was far too innocent. "I don't want to go back to being lonely and wandering the halls." Demyx said and looked pitifully sad.

Axel brought his hand to his chin as he hummed, pretending to be thinking it over.

"Kidding, of course Dem; we're friends" He grinned thinking of what they could do…

A big smile split out across Demyx's face when he heard Axel wasn't going to leave him in Loneliness. Dare he admit he was developing little too much of a liking for the pretty redhead.

Actually, Axel noticed he was feeling pretty hungry now that he was unoccupied. He stood right in front of the other "So Demmy; what do you wanna do?" He asked smiling at the other as he slid down on the ground beside him and brought an arm around his shoulder.

Despite the fact that he was disgustingly sweaty, Demyx was happy that Axel slung his arm around his shoulder.

"Hmm...well I...kinda want more juice" Demyx smiled, but felt a bit silly for wanting such a childish thing.

"Sure thing Dem; let's go then" Axel just chuckled, ignoring all aspects of a childish request.

He kept his arm around the other walked him to the kitchen

"Heh sorry i smell," Axel said apologizing, for the stench that may be there and the wetness of sweat.

Demyx smiled.

"It's fine, it's worth it to have seen that wonderful show you put on" Demyx said and grinned once more.

"Glad you enjoyed it Demmy; always happy to entertain you"

Demyx smiled at the cute nickname.

When they entered the kitchen Demyx ran to the fridge and got himself some more juice.

"Axel do you want anything? Oh look! There are fresh strawberries!" Demyx exclaimed as he pulled out a bowl of pre-prepared strawberries.

Axel went straight to the freezer and got out the ice tray, loaded with blocks of ice; he put it against his forehead and sighed

"Mmmmm nice and cold" He sighed leaning against the kitchen counter

"Oh! Strawberries? Yes please!" The red head replied eagerly

"It's not normal to hear you praising cold things" Demyx giggled and he picked up a strawberry and gave the top a few licks before he popped it into his mouth. He gestured the bowl towards Axel.

He smiled thankfully and nibbled on one of the red fruits himself.

"Well even though i am the master of fire, a little cold isn't bad. But just a little. Only because I'm smokin' hot right now" He sighed and took another strawberry; taking a seat next to the other

"I should take a shower" He mumbled to himself

Demyx smiled and licked at another strawberry. He liked how if the tops were cut off he could taste it without having to completely eat it first. He wanted to savour them.

"Oh, I guess I shoulda showered today too...that could have cured some boredom." Demyx muttered.

"Well since you promised we could hang out today, I guess I'll just have to watch TV in your room or something while you shower." Demyx said matter-of-factly.

Axel smirked and wrapped his arm around the blond for the second time today and inched closer to him; his hot breath against the other's neck.

"Or.." He breathed,

"We could take one…Together" He said playfully nipping the other's ear. He grinned at his proposal and took another strawberry; taking a small bite and sucked on it.

Demyx went ridged as a board. 'Was Axel serious...I mean if he said "yeah let's do it!" and he was kidding, he would seem like such a weirdo and not want to hang out with him anymore! But if he said no what if it hurt Axels feelings!' Demyx thought rapidly to himself. But Axel had just...nipped his ear. He wouldn't mind more of that.

He hadn't noticed that his face had turned a very dark shade of crimson and his eyes were very wide. He must have looked like complete idiot just sitting there, hardly able to take a breath without letting out a giddy laugh.

"a...ahaha..." Demyx laughed, dazed and in a state if idiocy.

Axel had to stop himself from straight out laughing; the other's reaction was just priceless. He gave his neck a light lick and caressed it with a blow of air.

"Mmph" Demyx squeaked as Axel licked his neck. Demyx squinted his eyes closed and gulped really loudly.

"What do you say..?" He asked; using a free hand to stroke over the other's cheek. Demyx... seemed to be taking it well anyway.

If it was even possible, Demyx's face deepened to a darker shade of red. "Are...you..." Was all Demyx could get out, and it was about an octave higher than his usual voice.

"Let's get wet" Axel whispered into his ear.
