Falling For All Of Me
Chapter 14: An Epilogue
Disclaimer – DO NOT OWNNN:(
"Demyx, let's go." Axel held his hand guiding him from the hospital, a week after he woke up. After he was put under having perfect health again. Walking was a silent ordeal but to Axel it was the greatest thing in the world. "Ya know, I'm kinda glad you woke up this week. It means you don't have to miss our first anniversary next month." Axel said casually still walking with ease. Demyx's stride slowed, the older turning back to face him. "Anniversary? But I don't remember any of it…" Demyx couldn't meet Axel's eyes. "I do. I remember everything, the few weeks we had together. The countless others you were hooked up to machines. I'm so happy that you're with me consciously again!" axel had closed the distance between them grabbing Demyx's left hand, and smiled, "Let's go home. Kay?" the silent walking continued.
Walking through the apartment door Demyx was amazed. The place looked the same as he remembered, generally. The only difference was the huge pile of mail on the counter. Demyx wandered through the rooms a few more differences, the closet was neat, the bed was made, the bathroom counter was void of make-up and hair products. Demyx back in the bedroom sat on the edge of the bed finally looking into Axel's still sharp green eyes. He looked his boyfriend over. Axel's hair was in a long ponytail draped over his shoulder, his clothes were baggy and plain; faded blue jeans and a large MUSE band-tee. His face was tiered. "Ax, you don't look like yourself at all, what's wrong?" Demyx was genuinely concerned. "Well, I guess I didn't have a reason to dress myself up every day, while you were sleeping," a soft smile played on the corners of Axel's lips.
The day ended calmly the watched a movie and walked to pick up their Chinese take-out. Demyx showered putting on his Ninja Turtle pj's. He climbed into the soft plush bed and watched Axel change, it was always one of his favorite things to do, still was. Axel pulled his shirt over his head, creamy porcelain skin exposed. Pants next, off and into a red pair of silk night pants. Axel turned to the bed walking to get in shirtless as per usual. "Ax, you really didn't take care of yourself …" Demyx was leaning across the bed running his fingertips over the hip bones protruding from Axel's body. Axel shrugged in bed finally, "It's alright though, you're here with me again." Lying in bed facing each other, eyes locked, fingers entwined, Axel kissed Demyx's forehead, "Rest now, won't cha?" a sleepy nod from the younger boy and soon enough he was out. Axel wrapped thin arms around the boy who'd been missing for so long. Serenity, this was finally peace.
Morning came, the boys woke up with a start as Demyx nearly rolled off the bed. "Demyx, kiddo you okay?!?" Demyx stretched out, "Yeh, I'm good. Hey what day is it?" the question was almost missed by the older, "Day? It's Monday…why?" Monday? Monday that means school. Am I still a junior? "Ax, do I have to go to school today?" Axel scoffed, "Demyx, you just got out of the hospital, don't worry about school yet. Hell, you missed your eighteenth birthday so legally you don't even have to go back if you don't want to." School. Should I go back? Finish my education? "Well, what else would I do?" Demyx asked in a small voice. Axel rose from the bed padding over to the closet, pulling out the glistening blue guitar. Back by the bedside he handed it over to the musician, "Start a band maybe? Play. It's been a waiting for you." Grasping the neck of said guitar, he strummed with his right hand. The sound was off; the strings stiff. He played a bit, stopping he looked up at the redhead. "Music store. I need new strings, these are rusted." Axel beamed, "So you're picking music, eh? That's good."
Strings bought, guitar re-stringed, Demyx played with quick calloused fingers, singing along to whatever tune he played. As Demyx was enraptured in his own music filled world Axel slipped away to the living room. He looked through his bag by the couch; digging through it he found the items he sought. Axel was already back in the room before Demyx looked up. "Ax, what's behind your back?" Demyx was looking at him quizzically. Axel whipped out the drumsticks he failed at hiding. He air drummed a bit, finishing by crossing the sticks in front of him. Demyx somewhat wide-eyed spoke in awe, "I didn't know you were musically talented. I mean I've your singing and thought you were a lost cause…" Axels pose sagged ever so slightly, "Geez thanks Demyx. I've always wanted to be shot down by my petite boyfriend. Anywho! This," he held up his drumsticks to accentuate his point, "is a little something I picked up while you were in the hospital making me worry." Demyx grinned sheepishly as if to apologize. "Yeh, so I'm decent if I do say so myself!" Demyx laughed quietly, "So then, I assume you'll join me on my music expedition?" Axel made a 'tch' noise, "Who said I wanna be in a band with a guy who thinks I have no musical talent?" Demyx's face fell, "I'm just messing with ya, obviously if you're planning something great I wanna be a part of it."
The next couple of weeks were spent looking for band members. It wasn't until the next month the band was complete. As it was Demyx played lead guitar and did lead vocals. Axel set the beat with the drums. The next found member was the bass player; a guy who was a year younger than Demyx but graduated two years before Axel. (Yeh, he was a genius.) He was really quiet and read entirely way too much. Zexion, the blue-ish onyx haired teen may have usually been mute and uptight but let him plug in a bass and he'd just make you gape at him. Now member number four was a boy who, had Axel not had his miracle little love Demyx, he would have found him very attractive. His name was Roxas and he had amazing skills on the keyboard. Demyx had accidentally called him Sora a few times; it was just creepy how much they looked alike. (well they were brothers but that's beside the point) the last member was found just last Friday. Marluxia. Second guitar. This guy was odd, womanly even but in a different way than Demyx was when he was Dyme. This guy believed he was a sex god, always flouncing around skin showing.
Five members, one band, one dream; and all of this made for Demyx's freedom. The band practiced every other day doing brilliantly so far. Demyx wrote the lyrics and collectively the band made the accompanying music. Practice one week before October 3rd Axel didn't show up. "What the hell?!? I thought this band meant something to him. Where the hell is he?" Roxas was more than a little irked by Axel's absence. Demyx felt a twinge of sadness in his heart. What if Axel didn't want to be in the band anymore? A sad sigh passed his lips. Zexion glanced at Roxas and Demyx in turn. He closed the book he was reading before practice began, and stood before the rather 'emotional' teens and Marluxia. "Look we don't know that he's quitting and abandoning us. Perhaps you are all reading too much into this." Marluxia spoke up saying something non-sexual for once, "Let's just get on with practice. If we waste time it won't make him come back any faster. Plus if he walks in on us playing and we sound kickass then he'll know he's meant to be with this band. Who could turn us down, huh? We're rockers aren't we? Plus we're gorgeous." They played, same songs, same volume, same speed as usual, but it felt different. The blonds just weren't into it. And when your lead singer isn't heartfelt everything just falls to pieces. They stopped Demyx and Roxas sitting back to back in the middle of the floor. Demyx looked sad and mope-y, while Roxas shot off pissed remarks about how he couldn't believe Axel stood them up when practicing so often had been his idea anyways. Zexion wandered off to his bean bag in the corner (since they were using his garage as band headquarters) and flipped open his book of the day. Marluxia the odd man (?) out leaned back on his elbows legs bent up like he was gonna do sit-ups, head back. The blonds looked pathetic. Zexion, well he just looked like Zexion. And Marluxia looked like he was about to take 'it'. Or at least that's what Axel thought when he walked in.
"You guys alive? Or did the band disband in my absence?" Marluxia and Zexion looked at the amused redhead. Zexion dismissed him returning his attention to his thick red book. Marluxia responded to Axels question by pointing at Demyx and Roxas, relaxing back into his 'ready-and-wanting-it' pose. Axel averted his gaze to the boys. Demyx was looking at him with questioning eyes, while Roxas had a 'fuck you' look in his eyes. "You prick! Where the hell were you?" Roxas snapped cutting the silence. Demyx on the other hand had a shaky voice when he spoke up, "I thought you left me… left all of us. Where were you?" Axel kneeled beside him, pulling him into a one armed side hug, "I'm not leaving you, or the band. You guys," with his free arm he motioned to the rest of the guys in the room, "are important." He got up and climbed onto a chair he pulled into the middle of the garage. "Now then for very very stellar news! You all know how my older brother works at a bar on the weekend. And how he's pretty chummy with the owner there. Well, he's convinced the bar owner to let us perform there this Saturday, October 3rd. Now feel free to praise me and my connections!!" Demyx clapped happily a huge stupid smile on his face that would turn any emo kid's angsty face into a grin. Roxas' jaw dropped just a little, Marluxia laid all the way back hands behind his head a pleased smirk on his face, and Zexion had an eyebrow raise and the smallest trace of a smile on his lips. "Get off your lazy asses, and let's play!" Practice went from every other day to everyday and for hours on end. Saturday was drawing nearer and between Demyx and Axel, Axel seemed to be the only one who remembered why October 3rd had a double meaning for them. As of now it seemed as though Demyx had completely forgotten their anniversary. After the show there was no way Axel would let their special day slip his mind.
"Kyaaaa! You guys the show starts in an hour!" Demyx checked the time on his phone, "I lied! Less than an hour!" the guys were scrambling around backstage checking wiring and mic connections. Demyx was jumping around and chatting animatedly with Roxas. Marluxia was fretting over Zexion's shirt. Axel was talking with his brother; who had done the bands hair for the show. Demyx turned and locked eyes with Axel. He mouthed the words 'I love you.' making a heart with his hands. Demyx turned back to Roxas and continued his conversation with the other blond. "Ya know, I thought you were insane for waiting everyday for coma boy. It makes sense though now, yo. I'm proud of you; I've never seen you so dedicated to anyone before. Today is your anniversary right? What are you planning after this?" Reno asked mildly intrigued. "Well, I thought I'd prove to him that not all guys are sadistic jerks when it comes to sex. Imma prove that I'm different, that I won't hurt him like Riku or his dad would. I'm gonna make love to him that should be a good way to end the day right? First gig, first anniversary, and our first time… together anyways." Reno smiled at his little bro, "Yeh, be good to him. He's a cute kid."
"Our live music for tonight please welcome hometown band: Reigning Hearts!" Although the band was unknown the audience clapped out of courtesy. The 4 boys and Marluxia (not a boy since he's 21) walked on stage. Demyx grabbed the main mic from -owner when it was handed to him. "Hey guys!" he spoke unto the crowd, "We're Reigning Hearts! I'm Demyx! I do lead guitar and vocals. That's Roxas on the keyboard, Zexion on bass, the infamous Marley on harmony guitar. And all the way in the back the beat banger Axel on drums! Now that you know us let's kick it! Thanks for listening!"
Rocking out had never felt so real or so right! The show ended to a big standing ovation pretty incredible for a first show. They played 6 original songs and 4 cover songs. In a van back to Zexy's (as only Demyx and Marluxia called him) to put up their gear, high-fives and 'Hell yeahs!' were passed around. Once everything was returned to its spot in the bands headquarters they all split up. Axel and Demyx walked back to their apartment in silent ease.
"Demyx, you do realize this is possibly the best way to spend an anniversary right?" Axel mused out loud. "Yeh, I don't think anything could make this day better." Demyx grinned; they were at their door. Slowly Axel moved in the moonlight its glow shinning off his lime colored eyes. He lightly pressed his body against Demyx's, softly pinning him against their cream colored door. Axel leaned his head down till their foreheads were pressed together. "I…I want to make love to you tonight" Axel breathed in his ear. Demyx blinked a few times trying to fully grasp what Axel had just confessed. He looked hesitant, "Demyx, I know this is sudden for you, but I've been waiting for a year most of which I spent wondering if I was going to lose you. I know guys aren't your favorite beings on earth but I want to prove myself to you. I want you to know I'm different, that I'm not like the others you've had to deal with. I want to make you feel good. I want to make you happy. So please, please let me." Demyx had his gaze locked with Axel's the whole time searching him for any false feelings but found none. Demyx swallowed, "Tonight and forever I'm yours. I trust you."
Nerves were high as they fumbled around kissing still pressed against the front door. The elderly woman in the next apartment over pulled her curtains shut with a huff. Axel smirked into the kiss and pulled away nipping at Demyx's neck. Axel pulled out his keys opened the door and grinded into the younger until he was tripping backwards inside.
Soft touches; rough kisses, sounds of needs meets nerves. Sure neither of them were virgins, but this was still all new, all clumsy groping. "Nnng!" Demyx shivered as Axel's fingertips trailed feather soft against the dip in his back. Fingers across his back, a moan, repeat, and soon enough Demyx was melting in Axels arms. Another kiss on the lips and Axel picked him up and carried him off to the bed. Demyx sprawled out on the bed, shirt off and illuminated by the moonlight, was simply the most beautiful thing Axel's eyes had ever beheld. But staring at such beauty wouldn't last when it looked so tempting. Axel attacked so to speak; crawling on top, taking hold of the young soft mouth below him. His hands were roaming Demyx's torso. Index finger flicked over an alert nipple. An 'ahhn~!' sounded from the blonds lips. Axel left wet kiss marks all along Demyx's body, a steady wet trail going further down, lower and lower. Axel's tongue slipped into his lover's navel and a pleased "erk!" was given off. "Ax, please?" Demyx's voice was a pleading whine, as he lifted up his hips to press against the others. The friction caused was blindingly good. Axel's eyes squeezed shut and a growl like noise erupted from his mouth. Demyx repetitively grinded upwards, the animalistic growls from Axel were growing in volume. The whole room came to a crescendo as Demyx threw his breathy moans over Axel's. And that was the turning point. Axel was pulling off his clothes and the remainder of Demyx's, trailing his hands down down down, centimeters away from the target area. Hand grasped Demyx's exposed hardened lower region. A soft mewling sound came from the boy in Axel's moving grip. Steady rhythm. Up. Down. Up. Down. Axel added his mouth to the head, rhythm now altered. Up. Down. Suck. Up. Down. Lick. Demyx was thrusting up in to the redhead's mouth almost gagging him. Axel pulled away reaching for the bottle at the headboard. He figured Demyx was ready to take him now. Spreading the younger's legs; Axel's soothing words were trying to calm the worried look in Demyx's aqua eyes. Axel poured the bottle's contents onto his fingers, he moved to Demyx's entrance. With his left hand he held Demyx's hand for reassurance, the index finger of his left hand pushed in. a high pitched Squeak was emitted into the air by the penetrated boy. A few seconds of adjustment passed before Axel put in a second finger. Demyx still made a sound at the intrusion but more of a grunt this time. Mewling, was that the word? Demyx was mewling while rocking his hips ever so slightly. This was a sign to Axel that he was ready for the real thing now. Axel pulled his fingers out of his lover and positioned his own length near Demyx's hole. Lathering himself with lube he pressed in. the pressure Demyx felt inside now made him throw hid head back. Such pleasure; such pain! But he wanted more! His body wanted more he rocked his hips a little more fervently than he had when he only had fingers in him. Axel got the hint and began his thrusting. A quick pace was being set and Demyx was moaning loudly. The lust in his voice was liquid-y spilling from his throat. His hands were balled in the sheets as Axel ravaged him. But Demyx's body still wanted more. Demyx toyed with his own erection until Axel pushed his hand away taking it for himself. He matched his thrusts and the pumping of his fist until Demyx's breathing was becoming hitched and ragged. Demyx held out a little more and rubbed Axel's nipples in between his thumbs and forefingers. Axel gave a tiny groan as his body was played with. Demyx was pulled up into a sitting position onto Axel's lap. Axel's thrusts went in deeper this way. Their mouths connected tongues colliding. Axel thrusted up harder and pumped vigorously. Demyx's mouth tore away from his "NGHHHH!! AHHHHH! ~" Demyx screamed loud as waved of an orgasm washed over him, his body shaking. Demyx's walls clamped around Axel's erection causing his seed to be released into his lover. A few more thrusts during his orgasm, he'd never felt such amazing sensations in his life. He pulled out and collapsed next to the blond. "I love you." Axel placed a kiss on Demyx forehead. Demyx in return curled up to him fully spent and tired. "I love you too, Axel."
As the two lovers slept in their blissful world the horrid past was completely forgotten. All the traumatic events in Demyx's memory were washed away. He was Axel's now, things like Riku and his father didn't matter anymore. Axel would protect him. And even if Kairi came and found him screaming to the entire world that he dressed as a girl for the majority of his school life, he'd be alright. Demyx wouldn't care what anyone thought of him as long as Axel his love was with him, and he would be. Axel would be there with him from now and until the end of time.
