A Christmas story

14th December

Lucky shot

Xigbar gives a tired sigh, as he looks at the guy that sleeps beside him. He really didn't mind spending time with Xaldin, but he couldn't wake him early, then he would get killed by flying spears.

"I'm getting up grumpy." Xaldin just answers with a grunt, before he goes quickly back to sleep. "At least one of us is able to get up is the castle burn down…"

Xigbar jump into his clothes, before he quickly set his hair up, then he walks out into the light of the hallways. And just what should he do now? Xaldin was half dead after the late night, and he could guess the rest of them were half dead too.

And Xigbar was right, for as he walks trough the castle, he soon find that everyone had decided to sleep longer that day. So the lonely Xigbar sits down alone in the Christmas decorated living room.

Ok, he had to admit that he felt terrible lonely when the others weren't there.

An hour went by, as Xigbar just enjoys a cup of coffee. But as he decides to watch some TV, he find out that he hadn't been entirely alone after all.

"Hey kid, have you slept here the entire night?" Xigbar laughs, as he shakes Demyx awake, before he walk around the coach, and sit down by his feet. "Hey, wake up Demyx."

"I didn't look a Zexion getting dressed!" Demyx screams, as he sit up in panic, and he looks confused around in the room, before his gaze stops on the quite un-impressed Xigbar. "Eh, I said something I shouldn't didn't I?"

"You can say that again Romeo." Xigbar laughs, as he nuzzle the beat red Demyx's hair gently. "You have work now don't you?"

"I… don't really want to." Demyx stammers, as he tries to not think of the fact that he was alone with Xigbar of all people.

"I don't think anyone found out that you went amok…" Xigbar point out, before he remembers that Zexion and Axel had mentioned that one of the rapists had gotten away. If he was still sane, he could have told everyone in town what he had seen by now. "Hey, how about I come with you? I can get writhe of the witness if he comes close to you."

"You can do that?" Demyx hiccups. He had been terrified for days! He only worked a few days for the moment, and he had been so nervous, that he would return to Radiant Garden and everyone would call him a murderer. He knew he was one, and it was the proof of him being heartless that he gave a fuck about the humans he had killed. But, he was a sort of person who couldn't take being unpopular among people that was alive.

"I'll leave earlier than you to check things up, then I can try and find somewhere close to you to stand guard for anything dangerous. How does that sound?" Xigbar cheers, before he pats Demyx a little awkward on the head.

He hadn't tried to jump Demyx for a while now, but he just didn't feel like it. Before it had been a fun game, but after he had found out how Demyx had been driven to his death, he had started to understand why Demyx would rather scream and run away than to just yell at him for trying his luck. Demyx had mental wounds from his past, and Xigbar really didn't want to be the cause of them never healing.

"Hey… Xigbar…" Demyx asks. The older unknown gives a 'yeah', as he tries to figure out how to break the weird mood between them. "I… don't want your pity!"

Xigbar is about to say something, but Demyx quickly call a portal, and leave the silent Xigbar alone.

"Shit… I'm not good with things like this…" Xigbar could deal with trying to get someone to bed, that was his specialty in life, heck! He had been able to fool Xaldin with him over a hundred times! But, he just didn't know how to deal with Demyx. He didn't even feel like getting him to bed anymore, of course he hadn't lost interest in Demyx himself. But, he just wanted him to be his usual cheery self.

Xigbar sits in the darkness for a little while, as he just listens to the distant sound of Demyx playing his sitar. Maybe that had been what had driven him towards Demyx? The cheerfulness he could give off, even without a heart.

"Ok!" Xigbar suddenly yells out for no one else than himself, as he get to his feet. "I might be an old pervert! I should have been neutered by birth! But there is no way I am letting anyone get Demyx to feel depressed!!"

And with that resolve, he opens a portal for Radiant Garden, to look for a way of staying close to the nervous Demyx for the rest of the day.

Demyx looks nervous around in the dark street. It didn't seem like anything had changed since he was there last, just that the snow had covered the place where the dead bodies had once been, had Axel's flames eradicated the bodies? Then, maybe no one had known about it at all?

He gives a deep gulp, before he walk into the busy street, and he make his way towards the bar as he tries to overlook all looks directed towards him.

The last few meters he ran, as he felt like everyone's eyes were directed towards him. He hated that feeling! He hated it when people stared at him!

Demyx went around the corner to the bar when he crash hard into someone, and he did not dare to look up at all, he just sit there and shake, as he clutch to his sitar with all his might.

He should never have remembered the end of his past! He should never have known about it! The memories of his dying feeling were all his body could come up with now, and no happiness was able to shine trough the darkness of the water he had died and been reborn in!

"Hey, what sort of face is that?" Xigbar complains, before he helps the confused Demyx up from the ground, and brush some snow off him. "Are you really ok to play in this state?"

"Xigbar?" Demyx hiccups, as he tries to dry his tears off, but to no avail. He felt so pathetic, nothing could make him feel like he had before again! "I'm ok. I just got something in my eye!"

"That had to be something incredible big and invincible something." Xigbar pats the shaking boy on the head. "But don't worry, just get in and get ready to play, no one knows those guys is gone, and I took out the witness, everything is ok."

"So I don't have to run off as a murderer?" Demyx stammers, and Xigbar nods. "Yay…"

Xigbar looks confused at Demyx, he tries to sound happy, but he didn't seem it. That just wasn't like Demyx.

"Come on now!" Xigbar pulls the confused Demyx with him to the bar, and after a little, something starts to make its way to Demyx's mind.

"Hey! Why are you dressed as a bartender? I thought we skipped Halloween this year." Demyx point out, as he looks at the clothes Xigbar had. He looked rather dashing in formal clothes. Even his hair looked different when he had it laid back instead of set up.

"Who is going to a Halloween party?" Xigbar asks amused. Here he had dressed up as nice as he had been able to and all. "I got a job close to you, just as I promised."

"Serious? You as a bartender?" Demyx laughs, and he feel a smile come to his lips. "That I have to seem, I bet you a hundred bucks you will break either a glass or a bone before the first hour has went by."

"I take you up on that bet." Xigbar snickers, and puts his apron on as he goes into the bar again. Man this was going to be an easy bet. "And don't underestimate me."

"Oh, when I bet a hundred bucks on just one glass I am over estimating you." Demyx snickers, as he makes his way to the back of the bar, and he waves to Xigbar as he joins the rest of the band.

"Heh, innocent youth." Xigbar laughs, and he finds forth what he needs, and the starts to mix a drink like a real pro, as someone orders a drink from him. Maybe he should have told Demyx that he had been a bartender on the side to be able to finance his studies as young? And that his shooting abilities came from having to help the bouncer toss out troublemakers? "Ok! The bar is open for tonight! Order a drink that is safe, or try your luck in new and dangerous creations!"

"Hey, you know your stuff." The owner laughs, as he looks at the customers that the new bartender had drawn to the bar.

"I haven't had a sober costumer yet." Xigbar throws a bottle up in the air, and lets it spin around a few rounds before he catch it easy behind his back. "Don't worry, I'll have them all drinking out of my palm in no time."

"I'll take your word for that." The pleased owner laughs. In just one week, he had both a good player and an outstanding bartender. He seemed to have luck with him for the moment.

"Ok! There you have a hundred bucks!" Demyx yells, and he looks mad away from the snickering Xigbar, as they walk out into the night street again. "How could I have known that you were a bartender?"

"You could have had enough brain to look at me when I make drinks, then you would have know." Xigbar laughs, as he puts the munny in his pocket. He loved his life. "So, how about we go and get a drink or something at another bar? This one close to early."

"I'm not really sure, I just want to go home." Demyx whispers, before he looks depressed down again. He didn't want to spend time alone with Xigbar! He was terrified that he would mention what had happened. What if Xigbar would pity him? He didn't want that!

"Objection!" Xigbar cheers, and almost scares the life out of Demyx. "We are going to a bar and get drunk! You are old enough to have sex! So you are old enough to get drunk!"

"But… I really don't feel like getting drunk at all…" Demyx stammers, as Xigbar pulls him with him. "Please, can't we just get home now?"

"Not before I get you good and drunk!" Xigbar cheers and he pulls the struggling Demyx with him.

And about an hour later, the two returned to their own world, both drunk and singing a song that would make anyone wish they were deaf.

"What the hell is that pestered sound?!" A furious Xemnas scream out, as he tries to cover his ears against the sleeping Saix. The poor wolf man gets screamed out of his blissful sleep. "Go and kill whoever is making that sound for me Saix!"

"Be rational Xemnas." Saix complains, as he pulls the pillow hard with him over to the other side of the bed, and Xemnas finds himself with no pillow as Saix use it to cover his own ears. "And shut up… you make far more noise than them."

Xemnas just mope at his lover. First Saix starts to like Axel, and now he even talked back towards him?! What was a poor little superior like him to do?

"I'm sorry Saix… let me have pillow too…" Xemnas hiccups, as he cuddles closer to the tired Saix. It did seem that none other than Xigbar and Demyx were cut out for late nights. "Pillow, I need pillow, or I will have a sore neck…"

"Come under the pillow with me." Saix lays the pillow over both of them, before he cuddle content with the pleased Xemnas. "I think it is Xigbar and Demyx…"

"Oh god, Xigbar has officially corrupted the poor kid." Xemnas sighs, while he tries to block the terrible music out. "I will yell at him later, just let me sleep some more hours."

"As long as you will let me sleep them too." Saix sighs, and he give a big yawn, before he goes back to sleep.

And outside, Xigbar and Demyx had now been able to stumble into the living room, as they cheer about something entirely stupid that Xigbar had tried to talk about.

"Yay, we are home!" Demyx almost stumble over the table as he make his way towards the coach, Xigbar runs to keep him up, and he watch as the quite drunk Demyx fall asleep on the coach for the second night in a row. "Good night Xiggy…"

"Good night." Xigbar sighs, and waits until Demyx snore loudly before he lifts him up, and he carry him slowly back to his own room. Xigbar weren't the sort of person to get easy drunk and he had only pretended to be drunk too. He needed to get Demyx in a better mood. The kid had been thinking himself to sleep the last few days, poor guy.

Demyx is laid gently down in his own bed, and Xigbar pulls the blankets over him as he have been able to get him out of some of his clothes. There, now he had done a good job, he just hoped Demyx wouldn't wake up with too bad a hangover.

"Mm… Xigbar?" Demyx whimpers, as he turns a little around in his bed when Xigbar had been about to leave.

"Yeah, what is it kid?" Xigbar asks, and walks back over to Demyx, who moves his lips to get Xigbar to believe he tries to say something to him. Xigbar leans closer to try and find out what he said, and then Demyx strikes. He pulls the shocked Xigbar down, and he holds him in place as he give him a crushing kiss.

Then he let Xigbar go, while he looks a little blushing away from him, as Xigbar heaves for air.

"Thank you, for trying to cheer me up." Demyx gives Xigbar a chaste kiss on the cheek. Then the older man finally gets over the shock, and he gives the nervous kid a warm smile. "I know I have been a little out of it lately, and I am happy that neither you, Zexion or Axel has mentioned anything, but, please… be like you were before! I don't want anything to change! Nothing feels right at all!"

"So… you want me to act like I have always acted?" Xigbar asks. Demyx nods, as he did not really know what he had just agreed to, before Xigbar have him pinned down in the bed. "Then you will face the consequences!"

"Hey… Xigbar… what are you…?" Demyx stammers, before it goes up for him. "Hey! Not that! Xigbar!"

"I'm sorry, but according to my memory, this is how I usually act." Xigbar snickers, and he holds Demyx down with the weight of his body, as he first undress himself, before he pulls the blankets over both of them, and he gives a pleased grin to the blushing Demyx. "How about it? Wanna try making an old man's day?"

"I hope Xaldin kills you later." Demyx stops his struggle, as Xigbar starts to undress him slowly. It wasn't so bad was it? He could never gain Zexion attention like Axel had, so a next best thing would actually be Xigbar. The guy was an asshole most of the time, but he really cared about him. And Demyx might actually start to fall for him. "And don't pull any mushy stuff on me… then I will kill you!"

"Heh, cute, really cute." Xigbar laughs, as he nibbles gently down the shaking Demyx's chest. He just hoped it wasn't because of the alcohol that Demyx gave in. Cause then he wouldn't feel like the nicest guy the day after. "Just tell me if you want me to stop…"

"Stop talking…" Demyx hiccups, but he close his eyes as Xigbar pulls his pants down, and he gives a confused cry, as Xigbar starts to massage him gently. "Ah… Xigbar…"

Xigbar sweat-drops, and use his hand to wipe his face.

"I'm sorry…" Demyx whimpers embarrassed, as Xigbar once more looks a little un-impressed at him. "I haven't done this before! I have a lot of tension build up! It's not my fault!"

"Don't worry about it." Xigbar laughs, as he licks his lips exited. When he thought over it, Demyx's coming face had been the most adorable he had ever seen. He felt twice as worked up now! "This night is still young."

"Don't you think those two are making to much noise?" Axel sighs, as he tries to find the remote for the stereo in his room, while the couple in the room a few floors over them starts to make too loud noises.

"I don't care!" Zexion hands Axel the remote, and Axel laid content back in the bed as the music win over the loud love making over them. "There, now we will sleep until tomorrow… and let Xigbar and Demyx be alone. I think Demyx will feel better with a lover, I guess Xigbar won't let him off easy now."

"I do wonder how Demyx will handle when Xigbar wants Xaldin to join in." Axel snickers, as he just cuddles happy with Zexion, and the warm blanket warms the both of them. Zexion is not able to stop the content feeling with Axel so close. "But I think the three of them will make a good couple, all left now is to lock Marluxia and Vexen in a room and don't let them out before at least one of them has taken the hint."

"That would have been a good idea." Zexion point out. "But I doubt it would have worked, both are brain dead. You should have thought that Marluxia would have taken the step out when Vexen brought him that flower…"

"I bet they will find each other in the end." Axel kiss Zexion gently on the cheek. Before he gives a yawn, and lay down against Zexion's chest. Zexion brush his hair loving.

His little Lea had grown up good. Well, he had become a real social mayhem, but in a cute destructive way.

"Good night again, little Lea." Zexion smiles as he looks at the snoring Axel. He was even drooling! Just too cute!

And the world that never was once more falls into silence, and everyone sleeps as the cloaked man make his way up the snow covered streets.

The ground around him first freezing over, before it goes black, as a deep darkness spreads around him, before he fades. The snow soon erases all trace of him ever being there.

His scheme was slowly starting to take form. A bond that should never have been, it had been a problem at first, but he could use it now.

Separate the two energies that made up the remnants of kingdom hearts, and he would have the result he wanted. He just had to wait, for the warmth of the heart to destroy the darkness of the schemer. Then his plan would be set into motion.

The end of the unknown.
