The second he walked through the door Axel and Demyx jumped up from thee spot on the bottom bunk. Marluxia ignored them completely and threw his stuff on the top bunk, climbing up there instead. Axel stood up, pressing his face between the bars of the side railing with a frown. "That's my bed." He pouted and Marluxia rolled over to stare at the wall. "Yeah- and you've been fucking on mine so I don't see the problem." He growled, and Axel backed off the bed with and angry push.
"If you're going to be a total ass I'll stay with Demyx... He's got a single." He started to rip his posters off the walls and grab all of his things, which included going through Marluxia's things. Though for someone who was mad he didn't have any problems talking the entire time. "What you did to Larxene was nothing but pure mean. Even she's not that bad! I suggest apologizing to her before you come around to me. Which I know you will. Come on Demyx." He slammed the door.
Marluxia sat in silence, and for once in his life- he didn't care that Axel was mad at him. Or Larxene or anyone. If he wanted someone to talk to, all he'd have to do is find Vexen. Vexen's excuse for Marluxia being there the entire time was lack of family and Lily had given clear permission for Marluxia to stay with Vexen when he got lonely, after apologizing for not being able to properly raise him. It felt weird to Marluxia, having a mother who let him do this, or what ever else he wanted as long as drugs weren't involved.
She had eventually found a notary "willing", but the price he charged were outrageous. None the less- Her and Vexen were both working to get the money for it. Marluxia had switched out of his English class and instead took the class with a man named Leon. And for once in his life, there was no stress.
No Zexion, his mother was free, Axel wasn't controlling his life, he had gone weeks with out injuring himself. (Albeit, two of those weeks were spent in a bed).He had a room to himself. Not that he planned on staying here much of the time, and he found a job he was going to start next week at a pet shop.
There was a knock at the door and Marluxia sat up slowly, "Yeah?" He called and he heard a familiar groan of annoyance from the other side- followed by yelling. "No running!"
Marluxia laughed and climbed out of the bed slowly, opening the door. Vexen made his way in angrily and crossed his arms. "I told you to leave your stuff in the car! You're not healed enough for heavy lifting!" He said, his arms flailing about as he talked. Marluxia couldn't help but laugh and shake his head. "I got it all here fine..." He moved and sat down on the bottom bunk. Vexen tried to sit next to him but instead smacked his head on the higher bunk and keeled over in pain. "Was this place designed for children!? My god!" He groaned and Marluxia bit back a laugh, rubbing his head lightly.
Vexen sat up, his hair now in a tangled mess and his expression flustered. "Anyways. I didn't just come here to yell at you. We've got a meeting with the court today about our "Consent". I was going to see if you wanted to go to lunch before then." He mused, looking around the room, which Axel had left trashed.
"Uh... Alright..." He said through a yawn, rubbing the previously patched eye. He didn't take it off until he was sure it was healed. Unfortunately, he wasn't sure enough and like he'd expected, Vexen made it bigger than it was, breaking a defenseless lamp in the process.
Standing to his feet slowly, Marluxia kicked some of his things aside before freezing in place. "My notebook!" He started to search the room. After Larxene's last raid of the journal, he'd made sure he hid it where it wouldn't be taken- but with Axel's rampage the red head had searched every inch of the room. After not finding it lodged between his dresser and the wall he started to panic. "H-he took it!"
Vexen frowned, watching in slight amusement as Marluxia continued to run around the room. "Just ask for it back..." He sighed, starting to worry that Marluxia would injure himself. "He won't give it back! I've written every event before the talent show..." He breathed out shakily, watching as Vexen's eyes grew wide with terror. "Are you stupid!? Why would you do that!?" Vexen jumped up, scanning the room.
Sighing, Marluxia shook his head. "I needed to tell someone what I thought! I couldn't tell an actual person!" He groaned, falling onto the floor. "Tell me next time! My god! If the wrong person gets a hold of that... Just pray that no one finds it..." Taking a deep breath he held his hand out to Marluxia who used it to pull himself up and leaned against Vexen. Reluctantly, the teacher pulled his arms around Marluxia and held him tightly. He leaned down briefly and kissed the boy lightly on the lips. Then- The door opened and they both jumped up, turning to see a horror struck Xion with tears in her eyes. "M-Marluxia that's.... Why!?" She asked in confusion and Marluxia grabbed her by the arm and pulled her into the room while Vexen closed the door.
"Listen, please. You can't tell anyone about this!" Marluxia pleaded and Xion looked up at him. "But... I love you..." She said quietly and Marluxia shook his head. "No... You don't... You barely even know me..." He sighed and she shook her head. "That's not true!" She said loudly and Marluxia stepped away from her. "What's my last name...?" He asked with a frown and she stuttered a bit before saying she didn't know.
"Exactly my point... But please! Promise me you won't tell!" He asked again and she nodded lightly before looking up at Vexen. Vexen smiled lightly and mouthed "Thank you". Reaching into her pocket she handed him a small black book. "Axel... Had this... I was coming to give it back..." She said quietly before running out the door again. Vexen sighed and Marluxia slammed and locked the door before pushing Vexen against it and rested his head on Vexen's chest. Vexen smiled lightly and closed his eyes, running his fingers through Marluxia's hair. "Let's just go find your mother..." He mused and stood upright. Protesting with a whine, Marluxia stood up too.
Opening the door Vexen lead Marluxia out into the parking lot- but didn't go to his normal spot. Instead he moved towards the student parking lot, which confused Marluxia deeply. Vexen remained quiet before opening up the passenger door to a small blue car and tossing Marluxia a pair of keys. Marluxia stared at them, still more than confused and Vexen smiled. "Well I'm not going to drive your car..."
Marluxia frowned at the vehicle again. "What the hell are you talking about?" He frowned, earning an eye roll from Vexen. "It seemed to me that you might need one... That way when you wanted to leave it didn't involve me driving out here to get you."
Marluxia's eyes widened and he looked at the car again. "Where the fuck did you-!?" He ran around to the driver's side and climbed in to the seat. "Language..." Vexen warned with a smile. "Just drive the damn thing..."
