Xiana: Chapter 4, you know the score.

Chapter 4: Sarcasm Gets You Nowhere
Roxas sat sadly in his chair. Actually, he wasn't all that sad. He was pretty ticked off. Axel was making him do work because he had yelled at Axel and gotten slapped for his troubles? Roxas rubbed his cheek, which still had a big red mark on it.
He wondered what Axel was going to make him do. Weed Marluxia's garden? Throw Xemnas off the roof of the castle? Sneak into Vexen's lab and turn up the thermostat? Bake a batch of cookies and cuppycakes????
Axel finally reached a decision. "For detention, you will first bake a batch of cookies and cuppycakes, which will replace the ones that Xaldin made yesterday when he was stabbitying people, and therefore have a delicious taste of blood in them, because I am going to eat the afore-mentioned 'bloody cookies' on your bed while watching you clean your room, because it really needs it, Rox, and therefore really making more of a mess that you will then have to clean up, also!"
"Uh… what? Sorry, I didn't quite catch that last part…." 'Or any of it at all,' he added silently.
Axel sighed. "Why must I always repeat myself to you! Nobody appreciates all the hard work I do to come up with this! I said: For detention, you will first bake a batch of cookies and cuppycakes, which will replace the ones that Xaldin made yesterday when he was stabbitying people, and therefore have a delicious taste of blood in them, because I am going to eat the afore-mentioned 'bloody cookies' on your bed while watching you clean your room, because it really needs it, Rox, and therefore really making more of a mess that you will then have to clean up, also!"
Roxas smiled innocently. "What, were you talking? Sorry, I wasn't paying attention."
Axel sighed. "Dammit, Roxy, pay attention this time! Now, as I was saying, for detention…"
--------With Demyx and Zexion--------
Zexion walked through the halls happily. At long last, he had gotten away from- "Z-ze-ze-Zexy!" Demyx shouted cheerfully. "Let's go wander around outside the castle! Come on!"
Zexion groaned sadly. "Actually, Demyx, I've got a lot of homework, and, uh, I've been feeling pretty sick recently, so I think I'll have to decline…" He raced for the shelter of his room, Demyx sprinting behind him.
"Don't worry, Zexion!" Demyx yelled as Zexion slammed the door to his room. "I'll be right here, waiting if you need any help!"
Zexion lay in the dark shelter of his room. He wondered what he should do about his Demyx problem. He winced, even now he cold hear Demyx composing a song that appeared to be named "Ode to Zexion." Zexion knew he had to quickly use his powers of logic (and great hair) to escape from Demyx. Demyx was right outside the door. He had wanted Zexion to go outside with him before. Therefore, the only safe place was outside.
Zexion swung himself out the window and lowered himself to the ground. (His room was on the bottom floor because Xemnas thought he was emo and going to kill himself at any moment by throwing himself from a window. It was unfortunate how everyone felt the need to stereotype him in such a way, but today the latter statement did seem to have some basis in truth.)
He gently stepped down from the window, looked around, and…. stepped backwards into Demyx?
"Wow Zexy, you made it after all! This is great! Now we can go to the park and have a romantic picnic and play Frisbee and tag and then we can go to a lakeside amusement park and go on all the rides and eat funnel cakes and get our pictures taken in a photo booth, and then we can play one of those games where you have to throw the softball and knock down all the milk bottles, or maybe one of the ones where you have to throw the rings over the bottle, and then I can win you a giant teddy bear, or maybe a huge doggy, or maybe both, and you'll carry them around for a little bit, but then I'll take them and carry them for you and you'll hug me and say, 'Oh, Demy-kun, you're so strong!' with a little heart at the end of the sentence and then we'll go for a stroll down the boulevard and all the other people will look at us with envy because we'll be the most adorable couple, and it'll get dark and we'll go on the Ferris Wheel, and it will stop at the top, and the fireworks would start, but only a little bit, and then we'd look at each other shyly and then look away, and then we'll scoot a little closer to each other and then giggle shyly and then share our first, passionate kiss as the brightest fireworks illuminate the sky! Right, Zexy? Zexy? Uh… Zexy…?"
Zexion was too busy focusing on other matters. Wait… so if Demyx was here… who was outside his room writing an ode to him…?
---Outside Zexion's Room---
"Ohhh Zexion! You're so beautiful it makes me yawn! Oooooh Zexion! Your smile is bright just like the dawn!"
The mysterious figure stopped strumming the ukulele and blowing rhythmically into his didgeridoo to frown. "That won't work…. Zexion doesn't smile because he's so adorably emo!" The mysterious Nobody gasped. "That's it!"
"Zexiooooon, he's so emo-iooooon!"
"No, wait, that won't work… Dammit, I wish I had a rhyming dictionary… I mean, come on, what rhymes with Zexion?!"
---With Axel and Roxas---
"Okay, let me get this straight. You want me to bake cookies and cuppycakes, but not ones that have blood in them, because you're going to eat those…. Why again?"
"Dammit, Roxas, pay attention! I've already told you this 8 times by now!"
"What happened to 'Kinoki-san?'" Roxas asked, smirking slightly.
"Pay attention this time, or there won't be a Kinoki anything!" Axel screamed in frustration.
---Demyx and Zexion---
"Yeah, good idea Zexy! We can save the amusement park for our first real date some other time!" Demyx prattled on as the two walked down the streets in the middle of the dark city.
Zexion kept feeling random stares from other Nobodies directed at him, specifically, but it wasn't until they met up with Larxene that he realized the reason why.
"Hey, Demyx, found yourself a new girlfr- Oh. My. God. Z-ze-Zexion…?" She burst into hysterical laughter upon realizing just who Zexion was.
"What, haven't you ever seen a pretty emo boy in a sailor fuku before?" Demyx asked defensively.
"Actually, um, no…" Larxene gasped, continuing to laugh maniacally.
Zexion noticed a crowd gathering around them. And of course, they were all staring at him. When over a thousand were in a huge group surrounding him, he finally snapped sarcastically, "Why don't you take a picture, it'll last longer!"
So then, everyone (including Demyx) pulled out their digital cameras, and Zexion was hit with a blinding flash.
Zexion sighed. When he got home, he was definitely changing into a normal outfit and throwing himself off the top of the castle.

Xiana: Well, that's the end of this chapter! I hope you liked it! Hmmmm… lots of Zemyx in this chapter. So… the next chapter will be all fluffy Akuroku! Ahahaha!
Notes: I apparently like writing run-on sentences. So I made Demyx say them. A lot.
Finally: I'm sorry I didn't update, but I was depressed and my left pinky got messed up so I couldn't type. Still can't, but I felt guilty. Hope you liked it.
Review, everyone!
