Thanks for your review XkingdomheartsSRRX. Now it's time to really get started! xD
Warning: Yaoi and I'm not going to change that. xD Some swearing.
Disclaimer: I don't own Kingdom Hearts.
A/N: This chapter takes place one year after the first and the second and it's mostly from Demyx's point of view so I kind of changed the style of writing.
Demyx sat in his room listening to Zexion who explained the new topic they discussed in math class. But the dark blond had some serious trouble concentrating right now. Zexion was the perfect tutor, that was out of the question! With his help he had managed to attend the last year of high school, with good grades on top of that! But why, oh why, did he have to be that sexy? His soft lips were hypnotizing Demyx so he was unable to listen to the words they were forming. How would it feel like to touch them? To be touched? To simply kiss them?
Of course he wouldn't dare to try. He wasn't that stupid and he wasn't gay! At least he didn't used to be… and he still didn't consider himself gay. And yet he was attracted to the slate haired teen, that was also out of the question! He would even dare to say he loved Zexion but…
"Demyx!"
His thoughts were interrupted. "What is it, Zexy?" He asked. Yeah, Zexion allowed him to use that nickname now. He still hated it when Axel called him that though.
"You're staring at me!" The slate haired male replied.
"I'm just listening to you" He defended himself.
"Then could you please listen to me without staring at me?" Zexion was agitated.
"Yeah… sorry"

... He couldn't. He just couldn't! He couldn't take his eyes off him so he just closed them for a moment for some… mental preparation, right!
"Demyx?" Zexion's voice sounded threatening so Demyx opened his eyes again.
"Yeah…?"
"Are you an idiot?" The slightly younger teen looked beyond agitated now. "I said you should stop staring at me but I didn't say anything about closing your eyes! I'm trying to explain you something here!" He complained.
"Right. Sorry" Demyx replied. He just hoped that this day would end soon.

Demyx hadn't come. Zexion waited for two hours sitting in the library as usual since they had realized that meeting at the front gate was a really stupid idea. But today… Demyx hadn't come. What was so bad about him not coming anyway?
Zexion sighed subconsciously. Demyx could've at least said something! The slate haired male was angry, disappointed and he didn't even know why. It's not like he was depending on Demyx. Perhaps the dark blond was depending on him but not the other way round!
"Stupid" Zexion muttered. He realized that he couldn't concentrate on the book that he had wanted to read so he decided to go home. He put the book back where it belonged and left the library.
He didn't need Demyx. Why had this thought even crossed his mind? It was nonsense. Zexion was about to reach the front gate when suddenly…
"Zexion!"
He turned to see a small blond running towards him.
"Roxas? What's the matter?" He asked confused.
"Good thing I found you. I thought you already left school"
"You were searching for me? Why?" Zexion asked.
"Demyx isn't going to go to school tomorrow and he hasn't been today" Roxas replied.
"Why?" The slate haired male cursed himself for sounding worried.
"He's sick" Roxas said simply.
"Sick?" Zexion asked unbelieving.
"Yeah, one of his rare illnesses. They occur every few years"
Every few years… this words made him realize that the blond knew Demyx for many years, several years more than Zexion...
"Anyway, Demyx wanted me to inform you and you shouldn't worry about him… Zexy"
Roxas smirked. It was strange for him to use that nickname but on rare occasions like that it was better… more personal. It wasn't like they were friends (he wasn't sure about that part) but they were close nonetheless.
"Right. Then you should go home now. You surely didn't plan wasting time on searching for me, did you… Roxy?" Zexion said grinning slightly.
"You're right. Axel would kill me if he knew I'm still at school"
Roxas turned but looked one last time at Zexion asking: "See you tomorrow?"
The slate haired male just nodded in response. He used to spend more time with Demyx's friends anyway.

Now he lay there staring at the ceiling of his room. He took a quick look at the alarm clock. School would be over soon… Demyx sighed. This was so boring! And no, he didn't skip school because he couldn't bear to see Zexion anymore without pouncing on him. He had thought about that before but this sickness had been ahead of him. Good thing he didn't skip school or he would just have had to realize how boring that was.
And instead of being happy that he wouldn't see Zexion for a while he missed him. The face he used to see every day in the past year except for the weekends he had spend with his friends. He missed his friends too. They didn't even come to look for him! Roxas would only drop by if there was important homework and Axel… well Axel would hang around with Roxas not even noticing that Demyx was missing. It looked like the two had become even closer since Demyx had started to meet Zexion. Damn it, his friends were probably gay too! This wasn't helping at all!
Suddenly the doorbell rang interrupting his thoughts. Well… his parents weren't home yet so not much of a choice but to open the door himself. He got out of the bed, slowly walking towards the door and opening it...
Oh crap! He should've looked who stood in front of the door before opening it!
"Z-Zexy?" He asked disbelieving. And what on earth was wrong with Zexion's outfit? A black tank top and skinny jeans? Did he want to torture him?
"What's this?" Demyx asked desperately.
Zexion looked confused. "It's called street clothing, stupid"
What? Demyx knew Zexion for over a year and yet he couldn't recall to have seen him wearing something else than this boring black school uniform before?
"Oh right, sorry" He replied embarrassed.
"What are you doing here anyway? I hope you don't expect me to study in the few days I'm sick in my life"
"No, don't worry. I don't want to catch that illness of yours" Zexion replied.
"Then what-"
"It's called a visit, you know? May I come in?"
Wait! Zexion was really visiting him for no reason? Or perhaps even because he was sick?
"Um… off course"
He made room for Zexion to step in.
X X X
Idiot! What was he doing just sitting there like this? Zexion obviously didn't know what to do and it was driving Demyx insane. The slate haired teen looked around like he hadn't seen this room ever before. Well, he surely hadn't seen it with a Demyx lying in his bed before.
"So… how are you feeling?" He suddenly asked.
Demyx was confused. Oh right, he was sick, wasn't he? He had almost forgotten that fact with Zexion standing in front of his door all of a sudden.
"I'm okay… there's just this annoying headache"
"Hm…" Zexion replied thoughtful. It wasn't much of a reply though…
"You really don't have to waste your time on me"
"Am I annoying you?"
Huh? Demyx shook his head. Why would Zexion think that?
"No, of course not. You're just… too kind. I mean, isn't there anything else you should do in your free time?"
Zexion thought about it a while. "No, I think not"
"What about your parents?" Demyx suddenly asked. His parents were always complaining about him never doing the housework and all…
"I live alone" The slate haired male replied.
"What? How? You never told me"
"You never asked"
Zexion was right. Demyx would've never believed that someone his age lived alone. Wouldn't it be difficult with still going to school and all?
"My parents are paying the rent, don't worry" Zexion said.
"But why?" He asked. Why would Zexion want to live alone?
"Problems. I don't want to talk about it, okay?"
"Absolutely" Demyx replied quickly.
Zexion smiled. "Thanks"
The dark blond blushed deeply. Oh my god, Zexion really just smiled!
"Zexion… would you want… to go for a dinner… with me?" Demyx stuttered.
Zexion looked confused. "What?"
The slightly taller teen cursed himself for asking in the first place. Zexion was totally irritating him, making him loose control over his feelings and apparently over his mouth as well.
"I want to invite you for dinner" He said lowly.
"Why would you want to do that?"
Crap! Because you're my friend? Because you helped me that much? Because you…
"Because I love you!" He blurted.
X X X
"Because I love you!" Demyx blurted.
Zexion blushed. "Me too…" He replied softly.
"What?"
"I-I mean I want to go for a dinner with you too" He corrected himself. He wasn't in love with Demyx! He wasn't… was he?
Demyx smiled at him. "Right. We will go as soon as I recover from that stupid illness"
His oceanic blue eyes sparkled.
"Right… I should go now…"
Something strange definitely happened just know… Was he going to have a date?
Muahahaha, I guess you could call that a cliffhanger xD (Please don't mind my evil laughing)
Sora and Riku are going to have their appearance in the next chapter.
Please review :)
