Chapter Six

Homecoming

Week 6

Zexion's mother gave him looks for the next week. She constantly questioned him about his relationship with Demyx, and he would shout back, "Mom! We're only friends! Gah! Why can't you leave me alone?"

His mother would raise her eyebrows, and walk away. Zexion just became frustrated and slammed the door to his room.

Out of the corner of his eye, Zexion noticed Demyx racing down the hall to his locker. He skidded to a stop and said, breathing heavily, "Going… Homecoming… Game?"

He was referring to the football game against Traverse Town. "No. I didn't plan on it…"

Demyx chewed on his lip. "Would you…"

"Like me to go with you?" Zexion finished. "SCORE!!! YES, YES, YES!!!" he thought. "I suppose I could. I'm not doing anything."

"Great! I'll go tell Namine!"

"Namine?"

"Yeah, my girlfriend."

Zexion could feel his heart shatter into a million pieces. Demyx hurried down the hall to meet with a petite blonde that held a sketchbook. She and Demyx joined hands and walked to their next class. Zexion felt like his head could fry an egg. He slammed his locker door shut a little too forcibly. "Dude. Chill out!" a voice said from beside him.

Zexion showed up at the homecoming game nevertheless. After much arguing with his mom that it was not a date, but he was going with Demyx AND his GIRLFRIEND (much to his dismay) to watch a school administrated football game. His mom finally agreed, muttering something about her baby becoming a little something, but Zexion couldn't hear the last word. He heard a car pull up, and noticed it was Demyx. Zexion grabbed a thick, gray sweater from the hook by the door. Demyx sat in the driver's seat, while Namine sat on the passenger side. Zexion crawled into the back gingerly. "Let's roll then!" Demyx said once Zexion had settled into the car. Namine quickly leaned over to roughly kiss Demyx on the lips. "She's trying to piss me off isn't she?" Zexion thought. Demyx didn't say anything, but turned bright red and began to drive. The rest of the ride was ridden in silence. When they reached the game, Demyx paid for all three, and made a beeline for the concession stand. "I'm starving! Do any of you want anything?"

"Just a water," Namine said in a sugar-coated voice.

"I'll take a coke…" Zexion said, digging in his pocket for change, but Demyx stopped him. "I'll take care of it, no worries! Just go find some seats!"

He left Namine and Zexion alone. Namine gave him a look of pure hatred, flipped her hair to the side, and walked twords the steps of the stands. Zexion took a deep breath and followed the blonde to the top steps of the bleachers. She stared intensely at the field, not looking at Zexion. But when Demyx plopped down on the other side of her, she snuggled against him, kissing him along his ear. "Definitely trying to piss me off…" Zexion thought, folding his arms across his chest and pretending to be interested in what the quarterback, Xaldin, a guy with a big build and long dreadlocks, was doing. It wasn't working.

Once Namine had loosened her grip on Demyx, he picked up his gooey bowl of nachos and began to eat hungrily. "Dem-Dem! That's disgusting!" Zexion shook his head, and stood up to go to the restroom when he tripped over Namine's foot and fell… right into Demyx's lap. His arms were draped around Demyx's shoulders, and he was being supported by Demyx's arms. Wait… what happened to the nachos?"

Namine screamed. Coating her white skirt and light blue shirt was coated with the thick, yellow, gooey substance. She fumed, her face becoming red, and she pushed Zexion roughly aside, and slapped Demyx clean across his face. In his defense, Zexion jumped up, grabbed his soda, and poured the entire substance over her head. "Bitch…" he muttered, giving her a look of pure hatred. "Don't ever lay your hands on him again."

Namine only ran off, tears in her eyes. Demyx smiled. "That's one of the caring things anyone has said!" He pulled Zexion into a tight hug, and Zexion awkwardly patted him on the back. "Yeah… you're my best friend…"

OH SHNAP!

This chapter was hell to write, but I liked writing it. I don't mean to offend any Namine fans… but I'm not a Namine fan. I got pictures in my head! Maybe I should break out some piccys. Er… Well… They might suck…
