Perhaps twenty minutes had passed since either of them had spoken. Axels liked Zexion's calm disposition and how tender it made the silence between them. The hadn't spent time like this in a while.
Zexion sat with his eyes closed, running a hand lightly along Axel's arm, tranquility seeping in and spreading like a drop of dye in a glass of water, like ripples in a clear pond. Not a pin drop of sound.
Axel felt the fire in him slowly, quietly flicker out, leaving a lingering warmth. He knew Zexion would eventually put him to sleep like this-- it worked every time --but he didn't care. Zexion would kiss away his fire, softly replacing hot flames with calm water.
