For all of you internet zombies who are still waiting for me to post,
I AM SO SORRY! School decided "hey, let's not give this chick any time to write so all the people on the internet will want to gut her like a pig! That sounds like a great idea!" So…yah…sorry. But, BUT! I promise to have two new chapters up in December, yah? OK? Sorry to all of you who hate me…*Tosses digital pocky* It's not the best but….gah! ENJOY!
Last night Demyx had told his story. Last night Demyx had fallen asleep crying. And this morning he was acting like nothing had happened…Zexion shook his head. The thoughts were confusing him. How could he act as if nothing had happened when he had just- "We should go to the amusement park." Demyx smiled a he handed Zexion a plate of bacon, eggs, and toast. "Marly, you're not invited." Marluxia frowned and Zexion looked up as Selphie walked out of the bedroom, smiling.
"Hi, boys. What's cooking?" She sat down at the only remaining seat at the small table.
"Eggs, bacon, and toast" Demyx smiled and handed her a plate, spatula still in hand. "And yours is smiling." And it was true. The bacon formed smiling lips and the eyes were two eggs placed neatly on top of the toast.
Zexion shoved the two peaces of bacon to the side of his plate and nibbled a piece of toast. "That's cute!" Zexion rolled his eyes as Marluxia looked at her plate. "It's smile is almost as goofy as yours, Dem." Marly looked up from the plate and grinned at Demyx. "You know, with that face and that ass you could really-"
"So, Zexy, do you wanna go?" Demyx changed the subject.
Zexion shrugged. "Sure." He remembered what had happened last night. He still had yet to tell his story and he was thinking the amusement park might be the perfect place. The Farris Wheel at Genesis Park had a nasty habit of breaking down in the middle of rides. Especially when Zexion was at the top…
Demyx grinned. "Great! 'Cuz I was already meeting some friends of mine there and Sephy sponsors the place or whatever so I get in free now. And I'm meeting Rikku and Paine there and Sora and Riku might show up…Yah, both Rikus might be there so I'll get confused. And I want you to meet Paine too 'cuz she's awesome and she's Riku's aunt because she's Sephys sister and-"
"You talk too much." Zexion chuckled as Demyx covered his mouth. "When are we going? I'm free until 7:30 pm. I have all night classes today."
"Perfect! Let's go right now!" Demyx grabbed onto Zexion's arm and tried to pull him out of his chair. "We could get there before the morning crowd!" Selphie and Marluxia were giggling at this point and starting whispering to each other followed by more whispers.
"Demyx…" Zexion detached the spastic blondes hands from his robe sleeve. "I'm not dressed yet. We'll leave in twenty minutes when we're both ready, ok?"
Demyx frowned and took off his apron. "Ok, fine. I'll wait…" Then he cracked a grin. "And while you work on looking like a sexy Zexy, I'll make us a lunch!"
Zexion felt himself blush slightly and headed towards the bedroom. "Work it, sexy Zexy!" Marluxia laughed from the table which received much giggling from Selphie.
"Shut up, flower boy." Zexion growled over his shoulder as he locked the door and started preparing for his shower. He didn't know why he was being so nice to Demyx. If it were anyone else he would probably be mentally abusing them right now. But he didn't want to be mean to Demyx for some reason. It was…new. He was so used to pushing people away.
"Hey, Zexy!" Demyx called loudly through to door and over the sound of he water. "Do you not eat meat?"
Zexion frowned. "Yeah, I'm a vegetarian."
There was a moment of awkward silence before the reply. "Ok, 'cuz you didn't…ok."
Zexion frowned and turned off the water. What was that about…

Demyx hopped out of the buss and onto the sidewalk out side of Genesis Park. "I'm so excited!" He said once again. He had probably said that more than twenty times sense they left the building. "Oh, you get in free too!"
Zexion looked at Demyx with a slightly confused expression. "What?"
"Because Sephy said I could bring one person and we could both get in free. So this date's on me!" Zexion blushed at the word date and was once again glad for his hair style. "Come on! We're almost there!"
Demyx continued skipping towards the entrance and Zexion was never far behind. He couldn't get over how childlike the blonde was. He seemed so innocent and so…cute. And what Marluxia had said about his ass… "Rikku! Paine!" Zexion looked up in time to see Demyx glomping two girls, a blonde and a silverette. They were both only slightly shorter than Demyx but still taller than Zexion and he couldn't help but feeling a bit depressed. Everyone was taller than him… "How have you guys been?"
"Superific!" The blonde girl replied as the hug ended. She grabbed the other girls arm but the red eyed silverette's face remained stoic, her gum smacking obnoxiously. "And guess what?"
"Oh! What?" Demyx grinned and looked at the girl expectantly.
"I got new beads! See?" She pulled at one of her braids revealing a few pink purple and white beads.
"I like them! They match your outfit too!" Demyx grinned and Zexion rolled his eyes. So did the other girl, Paine.
"Come on, guys." The stoic girl said. "Let's get in the park before it officially opens." She unhooked the hyper blonde girl from her arm and headed towards the gate and Zexion couldn't help notice the similarity between this girl and Demyx's hair. They probably went to the same hair stylist... "I don't want to have to wait in too many lines."
"Aw, Dr. P!" Rikku pouted. "You're no fun!"
"Don't call me that!" She called over her shoulder as she unlocked the gate and headed in. Rikku followed after her and Demyx smiled.
"Come on, Zexy." Demyx grabbed hold of the boy's hand and dragged him towards the gate. Zexion obediently followed the blonde, not that he had much choice, and Paine unlocked the gate allowing them to enter without paying for admission.
"Hey, hey!" It took a moment for Zexion to register that the blonde girl had grabbed him from behind and was now hugging him, looking at him from over his shoulder. "I don't know you." She stated simply as if that would explain everything.
Zexion ducked under her arms and faced her. "My name is Zexion. It's nice to meet you." He held out his hand for a shake and the girl just looked at it with a confused expression.
The silver haired girl rolled her eyes once more and grabbed Zexion's hand, giving it a firm shake. "Nice to meet you, Zexion. I'm Paine and this is Rikku. Demyx has told us a bit about you."
"Don't tell him that!" Demyx's face flushed and Zexion found himself smiling. He was just too cute… "He'll think I'm a stalker or something…"
"But you slept at his house!" Rikku chimed in, her beads clanging against each other as she skipped over to him. "That means your friends so you're allowed to talk about each other, right, Dr. P?"
Paine rolled her eyes. "Sure…"
"Out of curiosity…" Zexion glanced at Rikku. "You and the other Riku have the same name. It's not a very common name, is it?"
Rikku giggled and Paine nodded. "It was Yuna's idea. She's male Riku's mother. She said if she ever had a daughter she would name her Paine. We're all close friends and have been through a lot together."
Zexion raised an eyebrow. "I hope you don't feel this question rude but how old are you two? And how old is Riku?" At this point Demyx had grabbed Zexion's and the group was headed towards one of the rides.
"Riku just turned 17." Paine said. "I'm 32, this Rikku is 29, and Yuna is the oldest. She's 36. Not that she looks it."
"So she had Riku when she was only 19…" Zexion mused.
"How did you know that?" Demyx and Rikku asked at the same time.
"Subtraction." Zexion answered quickly before returning to the conversation at hand. "How old is your brother."
"He's 43 now." She shrugged. "And he did the responsible thing and married Yuna. And they're still together for Riku's sake even though they are far from happy. Yuna wanted to marry Tidus and when she told him he was devastated and turned to alcohol to solve his problems. And Sepheroth was always attracted to some kid named Cloud but he always got turned down. And then he liked a girl named Yuffie but something happened. I never found out what. Anyway, one night Yuna and Sepheroth went out and got drunk and she got knocked up."
"Yuffie?" Zexion asked, his eyes glazing over.
"Yah." Paine gave him a sideways glance as they arrived at the rollercoaster. "You know her?"
"Yah…I knew her…" Zexion mumbled, blindly stepping onto the ride.
