Chapter 2: Falling Blood
Marluxia held Zexion tightly through the night as he slept. The two stirred in their sleep as the morning light shined through the living room window. Zexion opened his eyes and looked up at Marluxia, blue ocean eyes stared back.
"Good morning Zexy." Zexion let a smile form.
"You only smile at me." Zexion pushed the blankets off and got up.
"You have that effect on me Marluxia." Zexion walked to the dryer to get his clothes out. Zexion removed his boxers and put them in Marluxia's clothes hamper. Zexion was putting his pants on from yesterday as Marluxia walked in. Marluxia looked at Zexion as he put his pants on and blushed. Zexion looked up at Marluxia and blushed a little as he finished putting his pants on.
"Hey Zexy, you want something to eat?" Zexion slid his shirt on.
"I'd like that." Zexion followed Marluxia to the kitchen and sat down at the table. Marluxia went outside into the back really quickly and came back in with a black rose. Marluxia set the rose in a vase in front of Zexion. Marluxia went into his fridge and pulled out the things to make and omelet. Zexion smiled at the sight of the rose. Marluxia fixed up the omelet quickly and put it on a plate for Zexion. Marluxia sat down next to Zexion and grabbed the fork. Marluxia put a little bit on the fork and fed it to Zexion. Zexion smiled and took the food into his mouth. Marluxia chuckled and kept feeding Zexion. Zexion ate it all and joined Marluxia in the clean up. Marluxia kept glancing at Zexion and every time he did Zexion would blush. Marluxia took Zexion's hand and led him back into the living room. Zexion took a seat and Marluxia joined him. Marluxia leaned back to lay down on the couch and he pulled Zexion with him. Zexion laid on Marluxia's chest, Zexion inhaled Marluxia's scent and closed his eyes. Marluxia stroked Zexion's hair and Zexion knew he wanted something. Marluxia stroked his hair out of a nervous habit that Zexion picked up on years ago.
"Yes, Marluxia?" Marluxia sighed.
"It's nothing Zexion." Zexion opened his eyes and sat up, looking into Marluxia's eyes.
"Now I know it is something, you haven't called me Zexion since the sixth grade, what's up Marluxia." Marluxia kept his mouth closed not wanting to say anything. Zexion leaned up and whispered into Marluxia's ear.
"Please . . . Please tell me." Marluxia let out a small moan as Zexion blew into his ear after finishing his plea. Marluxia sat up and closed his eyes letting out a deep breath. Marluxia opened his eyes and tried to say something. Zexion was getting annoyed.
"Oh come on!" Marluxia chuckled at his annoyance.
"I just wanted to know what or who was the cause of you suddenly becoming . . . Distant and . . . And . . . " Zexion felt his eyes become darker.
"Cold . . . Heartless . . . . Emotionless . . . . The bringer of pain or my favorite . . . .ice princess." Marluxia lowered his head knowing Zexion had been through a lot.
"Yea." Zexion chuckled.
"Tidus Mizrahi, the first boy I ever loved . . . I liked him in eighth grade and when I told him he punched me and told everyone, I told you and our friends it was just a rumor but the school didn't believe it." Marluxia though about everything that year and that was the time Zexion became the way he is.
"Oh, Zexy . . . .I had no idea." Zexion reached up at his eyes and looked at his hand after wiping his eyes.
"Zexy . . .you're crying." Zexion looked at the moisture on his hand.
"If I cry . . . I usually don't notice." Marluxia grabbed Zexion and pulled him into a hug. Marluxia stroked his hair and kissed Zexion on the cheek.
"I promise you'll never hurt again . . . I'll be there for you . . . I love you Zexion." Zexion looked up at Marluxia and kissed him. Marluxia was surprised, Marluxia participated in the kiss but eventually the two needed air. Zexion smiled and chuckled.
"I have to go to my house Marluxia but I'll meet you at school." Marluxia smiled and walked Zexion out of the house. Marluxia got ready and was out the door fast. Marluxia had a black rose to give to his love. Marluxia drove up and saw Demyx talking with Zexion, Zexion looked like he was ready to kill. Marluxia parked and got out quickly to help Zexion. Marluxia ran to Zexion and put his arms around Zexion. Everyone looked shocked as Marluxia placed a kiss on Zexion's neck. Axel was the first to speak.
"What the fuck Marluxia!? Zexion is a bastard to Demyx and you're feeling him up, we've been friends with Dem longer than we've been friends with Zexion." Zexion felt tears in his eyes and he broke out of Marluxia's embrace and ran into the school. Marluxia looked over at Axel with murderous eyes.
"You're a fucking prick, Axel!" Marluxia punched Axel and chased after Zexion. Marluxia followed Zexion into the school but couldn't find him anywhere. Marluxia looked for him around the lockers to find him pushed against a locker. Tidus Mizrahi was the one to hold him up against the locker.
"I heard you're boy friend broke up with you, hope you're not thinking of stalking me again you fucking fag." Tidus punched Zexion in the face, Marluxia felt his anger rise and he ran over pulling Tidus off. Marluxia lifted him into the air. Tidus was extremely nervous and his friends weren't around to back him up. Zexion walked away from the scene with haste. The other students jumped out of the way, they feared Zexion. Marluxia punched Tidus and dropped him, Marluxia walked off to find Zexion. Marluxia went into the bathroom and saw Zexion holding a knife to his wrist. Marluxia gasped and grabbed Zexion's wrist to stop him. Zexion fought against his grasp but he failed in the end.
"Zexion why would you want to kill yourself?" Zexion fell back against the wall and sat down holding his knee's
"I hate my life!" Marluxia was about to hold him when a kid walked in. Marluxia turned around and pushed the kid out the door.
"Get out!" Marluxia locked the door and sat next to Zexion. Marluxia put his arms around Zexion and kissed him on the cheek.
"Zexion I need you." Zexion looked up at Marluxia and smiled.
"He hurt me and you said I wouldn't be hurt anymore." Marluxia kissed the top of Zexion's head.
"It won't happen again, you are going to be happy and not in pain." Zexion smiled and started to get up. Zexion helped Marluxia up and kissed him sweetly on the lips.
"Come on we have class." Marluxia grasped Zexion's hand and the two unlocked the door and went to class. The whole school heard about Marluxia punching Tidus and needles to say they were happy. Tidus is super popular and everyone hates him, except his friends. His friends though agreed with Marluxia, his two friends Riku Valentine and Sora Strife were boyfriends and they hated Tidus's hate to gays. Marluxia stayed with Zexion at his house until Zexion seemed better after the Tidus incident. It was now the end of the week and the two friends were at lunch with their friends. Zexion was pretty much quiet because they all blamed him for the breakup, even though it was Demyx who broke up with Zexion. Marluxia comforted Zexion, he knew it was killing him that his friends were avoiding him. Axel was trying to be nicer but it was failing miserably. Axel looked up and saw Tidus coming with a drink in his hand. Axel tried to warn Zexion but it was too late, Tidus poured the drink on Zexion. Axel jumped up and tackled Tidus to the ground and punched him in the face a couple of times before two principals came and pulled him off. Marluxia, Roxas and Demyx took Zexion to the bathroom to get him cleaned up. Demyx handed Zexion some paper towels.
"Zex, I'm so sorry . . . This is all my fault, if I hadn't broke up with you . . ." Zexion smiled a little and turned around still wiping his body with the paper towels.
"It's ok Demyx, it's not your fault, Tidus is an asshole." Demyx smiled and they finished up drying him off. The four friends walked out to head to class.
Tidus walked back to his class holding his cheek where swelling and a bruise had already formed. Tidus walked down the hall and was about to open the class room door when a gloved hand grabbed him and turned him around roughly putting one of the gloved hands over Tidus's mouth. Tidus looked pissed at first but it quickly changed when a knife was put against his face and slid around. The cold metal making him cringe. Tidus whined a little.
"Oh little Tidus afraid?" The unknown figure taunted. Tidus felt tears in his eyes. The figure waved the blade in front of Tidus and finally struck it into his stomach. Tidus's eyes bulged and he let out a muffled scream that no one could hear but the unknown figure.
"Yes . . . Scream, the pain you're getting you deserve." The figure pulled the knife out and removed his hand to only crash together their lips in a forceful kiss. The unknown figure took the knife and lunged it back in. The unknown figure felt blood flow into his mouth. The unknown figure pulled the knife out again and shoved it into Tidus's chest and carved a hole so he could see the heart.
"Did you know Tidus, that the heart can only live for another thirty seconds after it has been damaged?" Tidus was barely holding on. The figure laughed and stuck the knife into Tidus's arm to hold it there for a minute why he put his hand over Tidus's mouth. The figure put his hand on the heart.
"Good bye Tidus." Tidus had tears falling down from his eyes. The figure pulled the heart out and Tidus felt his life slipping away. The figure pulled the knife out of his arms and struck it through the heart and into the stomach. The figure dropped Tidus and blood flowed out of his body onto the floor. The figure walked away and Tidus was left there outside the classroom door until the bell rang and the students discovered the body. The students screamed and the teacher rushed to Tidus. The teacher called down to the office and in moments sirens were heard outside the school. Tidus's body was taken from the school and the police looked for evidence finding nothing to tie this murder to anyone. They checked the camera's to find they were tampered with and there was no one the tape when there should have been. School was called off for the next couple of days and a memorial was set for Tidus outside of the school. Everyone in the senior class attended the funeral and it made news history.
