Zexion headed back to his room, his head filled with many thoughts. He had actually had some feelings for Marluxia, and had wondered what they really were. This had explained to him that, in fact, the feelings he had, although seemingly impossible for a nobody, were feelings of affection.
'So that is what that feeling is…' Zexion thought to himself, as he sat in his room, contemplating his situation. 'I know I love him, and I know he loves me, but is this actually the right thing to do?' The more he thought, the more he wanted to be with Marly. 'I'm not sure if I'm ready for a relationship yet.' He thought, and thought, and thought some more, until his mind was made up.
Zexion made his way to Marluxia's room in the castle.
"Marluxia," Zexion started, "I have made up my mind."
Marluxia leapt out of his chair and moved swiftly over to where Zexion was standing. "So, what to you think?" Marly asked, reaching for Zexion's hand.
To Marluxia's surprise, Zexion reached out and held his hand. "Marly, I love you very much. I agree with all of your letters, we DO belong together. I have constantly thought and wondered about what the feeling I had was, and you helped me figure it out." Zexion then lifted Marluxia's hand and kissed it lightly. "You have to promise me, not to tell anyone about us for the first little while, so I can adjust."
"I promise." Marluxia looked deeply into Zexion's eyes. "I would do anything for you, I love you."
Zexion started to blush. He quickly hid his face.
"Zexion," Marluxia began, "I know this is new for you, but it's okay. Everything will be fine. By the way, if you don't want anyone to find out about us, I suggest you try not to blush. No one ever sees you blush, they might wonder what's going on." Marluxia leaned in and kissed Zexion lightly on the forehead.
"Thanks Marly." Zexion looked up into Marluxia's beautiful blue eyes. "I'm really tired, so I think I'm going to head off to bed, I love you."
"Don't you want to sleep here, with me, tonight Zexy?" Marluxia questioned.
"I-I'm not quite ready for that yet Marly, soon though, I promise."
"Aww, okay." Marluxia joked. "I love you, never forget that, ever. See you tomorrow."
"I love you too, I promise, I will never, ever forget you."
