7. Acceptance

On the seventh night I lay in the dark bed, in the dark room, in the dark castle, in the dark world. This was my life now. This was what there was and I was just going to have to go with it and see where it took me. Whether I liked it or not, I was Demyx now. I was a Nobody. I was number IX in Organization XIII and that was that. I would just have to make of it what I could. I would have to move on and live this new life. I was, for the first time, glad that I had lost my past. That person, my heart, was dead now and I, Demyx, was alive with no time or reason to miss or morn the person I had been. I rolled over and pulled the covers up to my chin. I closed my eyes and finally feel asleep.
