Xemnas liked bears; But he didn't want to tell anybody. Xemnas also liked Lexaeus; and also didn't want to tell anybody...But Lexaeus. Xemnas would have liked nothing more then to tell Lexaeus about his feelings and then proceed to live a happy life together with Lexaeus. But he didn't think that would even happen. Xemnas stared into nothingness, lost in thought. Or so everybody thought. Xemnas was looking at Lexaeus across the room. Thinking about all the things he wanted to do with Lexaeus, everything he liked about Lexaeus. He wanted so badly to just tell him. Tell him. But that would never happen. Nobody would respect Xemnas if they found out about his secret. Xemnas was sure of it. So he just stared and waited for an idea to come to mind. "Maybe I can convince him to keep it a secret?" Was his best idea. "I'll just kill everybody who disapproves and elope" was his worst. Xemnas went with the best. "Lexaeus, could I talk to you...in private?" Xemnas asked. Before realizing that he was speaking both very quietly and to a wall. Zexion was giving him an odd look so he gave Zexion a terrifying look to scare him away. Xemnas location Lexaeus and made sure this time that he was speaking to Lexaeus and not a wall. "Lexaeus. Could I talk to you in private?" He asked. Lexaeus said nothing. But he followed Xemnas to an empty room. Lexaeus never talked much. After the door closed there was 5 minutes of silence. After the 5 minutes were up Xemnas proceeded with his confession "I enjoy your company.". Lexaeus looked a bit confused. "Let me rephrase that. I really enjoy your company." The smirk on Lexaeus' face showed that he understood. He looked a bit flustered. It seemed that he wasn't sure. Xemnas was very worried about this. But it seemed like Lexaeus had some sort of mind-reading abilities or at least had developed some form of speechless communication that didn't involve any kind of signs or patterns. Because Lexaeus gave his answer to the question that wasn't even asked yet "Sure.". A single word. The only thing to leave Lexaeus' mouth the entire time. But the entire conversation went unspoken. It wasn't as if he was incapable of speaking, but rather that he rendered speech unnecessary. And after passionate kiss it was quiet enough for footsteps to be heard in the hallways. And Xemnas remembered how he wanted to make sure the relationship stayed a secret. But he realized then that Lexaeus would never say anything anyways. And that nobody would even want to make fun of his relationship with Lexaeus as long as Marluxia is alive.
