AN-This story has yet to get any feedback and I can only assume that that is because there's one chapter. So without further a due, here it is. Enjoy!

I am releasing a wave of updates to most of my stories and a new storie as well. Don't forget to read those too.

Ch. 2: Forgiveness


As Axel turned his head, he got a glimpse of Demyx's face in complete horror. He then turned his head, not wanting to see his friend in such an unfamiliar way. Suddenly, his eyes lay upon Demyx, on the ground, motionless, and bleeding out. He turned again, forcing himself to look away. Axel's eyes suddenly stuck to one place as he saw the image before him. Demyx was attacking Axel while repeatedly shouting "Forgiveness?!"


Demyx was talking with his doctor when, out of nowhere, Axel shot up out of his chair, practically screaming. There were instantly some hospital staff going to him, making sure he is alright. He calmed down after a little while and told them he needed to take a walk. Just before Axel leaves, Demyx sees him look at him as if he was afraid for his life, like Demyx would hurt him or something. Axel then walked out the door, not a single word shared between the two friends.

Demyx was still going over some things with the doctor, one of which being the time he would be allowed to leave. "y** can l**v* ***** if you w***d l**e." Demyx was only paying a quarter of attention to what the doctor was saying. His mind was wondering about Axel. Such things as why he screamed, waking from his sleep, and why he looked at Demyx like that. "Demyx?"

"Huh? What? Oh, sorry. What did you say?"

"You can leave today if you would like." The doctor repeated with a small laugh.

Demyx suddenly felt a little energetic. He was excited that he could go talk to Axel now, and didn't want to wait any longer. He had many things to say. "Thank you so much, doctor." Demyx says out loud as he practically jumps over the hospital staff's heads.

Demyx realizes that he doesn't know where Axel is, so he decides just to wander around looking for him. After only a couple minutes of looking, he finds Axel in the hospital's outdoor courtyard, asleep on a bench. He smiles a little, knowing that Axel is extremely tired from nervously waiting for him to wake up. He hopes Axel will forgive him for making him worry so much.

He decides not to wake the sleeping redhead. Instead, he picks him up, signs out of the hospital, sets off towards their apartment.


-Their apartment-

Demyx lays Axel on his bed, turning to go to his own. However, suddenly, Demyx feels Axel lightly grabbing the back of his shirt with just his thumb and index finger. When Demyx looked back, he could tell the redhead was still mostly asleep. Axel then starts to whisper, "Demyx, I'm sorry about what happen to you. It was 100% my fault and there are no excuses or things I can do to make amends. I probably don't deserve it, but… can you forgive me?"

Without saying a word, Demyx suddenly flicks Axel on his forehead.

Axel's eyes widen, his breathing slowly goes back to normal, time sort of feels like it stopped, and he was now fully awake. That was not an irritated flick. Demyx was essentially saying, "Of course". Axel had not expected Demyx to forgive him at all but it was as if it was silly of him to think that that would be true.

In the same moment, Demyx was relieved as well. It dawned on him that that was most likely what was troubling Axel and what the dream and look he gave him were about.

"Axel, do you want to play a game or something. Assuming you're not tired."

"Oh! That reminds me." Axel jumped out of bed and ran to his closet to dig something out, leaving a confused Demyx… well, confused. "Ah Ha!" He stood back up and handed Demyx what looked like a skinny, rectangular, wrapped case. "I got you a present for Christmas when you were… well, you know." Demyx excitedly ripped the wrapping paper off with a smile on his face. As the object started to become visible, he read the title and froze. "Our favorite game. The new one came out while you were you now where. Kingdom Hearts thre-"

Demyx Tackled Axel to the ground in a bear hug, repeatedly saying, "Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you." Demyx has a huge obsession with Kingdom Hearts and it's pretty easy to tell.

They ended up playing all night and in the morning they were spread out on the floor, too Lazy to even get to bed.


AN- I think my favorite part was when Demyx flicked Axel. It is supposed to be a powerful scene, however, obviously everyone will perceive it differently so…
