Every day for the next ten days, when Zexion went to bed, he found a single red rose on his bed. He knew who they were all from. Each time he received a rose, he gave it a quick sniff and put it in a vase next to his bed. On the eleventh day, Marluxia decided to wait for Zexion in his room, so he could give him the last rose personally.
"Hi Marluxia, what are you doing in here?" Zexion asked.
Marluxia then pulled his hands out from behind his back, holding the eleventh and final rose. "I wanted to give you the last one personally." Marluxia blushed.
"O-oh, thank you, they are all very beautiful." Zexion walked over to Marluxia, took the flower, gave it a quick sniff and placed it with the others. Then he walked back over to Marluxia, who was now sitting on his bed, and sat down beside him. He held Marluxia's hand and gave him a gentle kiss on the cheek. "I will take very good care of them, I promise." Zexion rested his head on Marluxia's shoulder. "I think I'm ready now."
"Ready for what?" Marluxia asked. He thought it could be one of two things, sex or publicity. He was personally hoping for the first one.
"Stay here, I will be right back." Zexion instructed. Of course, as usual, Marluxia did as he was told.
While Marluxia sat on Zexion's bed, a dark portal appeared in front of Demyx.
"Don't scare me like that man!" Demyx exclaimed.
"Sorry about that, Demyx." Zexion apologized. "Can you come with me for a minute, I have to talk to you."
"Um, okay."
While Marluxia fidgeted on Zexon's bed, wondering where he went, Zexion appeared. Right behind him, was Demyx.
"Oh, that's what you're ready for." Marluxia said, disappointed.
"It's okay, Marluxia, that part is for later." Zexion reassured his boyfriend. He then turned toward Demyx. "Remember, when you said you noticed that something was different about me?"
"Yeah…"
"Well, I wasn't lying, I was thinking about things. Well, not things exactly, but instead, I was constantly thinking about Marluxia."
"What do you mean?" asked a puzzled Demyx.
"I think it's easier to show you than tell you." Zexion then turned to face Marluxia, who was now standing. He nodded and stepped closer. Zexion started to kiss Marluxia passionately. He pulled away before he scared Demyx.
"Do you understand, Demyx?"
"You two… In love… Never saw that coming!" Demyx looked a little shocked. "Do you want me to keep quiet?' He asked.
"I would ask you to not tell anyone, but we are going to stop being so secretive. If anyone asks you what's going on, you may tell them." Zexion responded.
"I think I can do that."
"Thanks Demyx."
Demyx decided to leave the room before anything else happened.
"Well, now he knows." Zexion sighed. "I guess we should go keep an eye on him, just to make sure he doesn't go around blabbing to everyone at once."
"Just leave him be, I trust him, he's a good kid." Marluxia informed. He had other things in mind for right now.
