"Hey, Dem? Are you okay?" I looked up to see Zexion looking concerned. So cute...W-WAIT! S-SNAP OUT OF IT! I coughed. "Yeah. Just peachy. I couldn't sleep a wink." This was true. I was dying over what I should say to Axel. The only option was to tell him the truth...which is the fact that I'm slowly turning gay for Zexion. I was mentaly crying. I can't believe i just admitted that.
Zexion took his seat in front of me. "I see..." He fixed his thing up then i remembered. "Oh yeah!" Zexion looked at me. "What is it?" I reached into my bag and pulled out 'paper towns' then handded it to him. "I was able to finish it during the bus ride home! I couldn't put it down!"
Zexion took the book and smiled. "I know, right? And after reading the book I suddenly felt the need to go on a road trip with friends."
I nodded, causing my head to throb a little, "I KNOW! We should so go on a road trip!!!"
Then Axel came in and placed his hand on me shoulder. "Good morning guys!!!" He placed his bag on his chair and looked at Zexion. "Zexy, you wouldn't mind if I borrowed Demmy for a while, would you?" I mumbled some incoherent things while Axel waited for Zexion's reply.
"I wouldn't mind...BUT please refrain from calling me 'ZEXY.'" He said, venom interlaced with his nickname.
Axel nodded and pulled me out of the classroom. "Oh! By the way, Zex..."
Zexion looked at Axel. "yes?"
"I'm not so sure how long this will take so if the teacher asks...could you say Demmy wasn't feeling too well and I brought him to the nurses office?" Axel asked.
Zexion nodded. "Alright. No problem."
"thanks Zexion."
Axel dragged me to the rooftop. "So, Demyx. What did you want to talk about? You sounded kinda serious so I though that you would prefer if we talked in private."
I nodded. Wow Axel was good. I mean...did I really sound that problematic on the phone? "Well...you see...hmmm...how should I put this..."
Axel sat down on the floor. "Yes...?"
I joined him on the floor and began. "Axel, we're always gonna be best friends, right?"
Axel nodded. "Of course."
"Even if we were countries apart?"
Axel's face turned from calm to shock and stood up. "YOU'RE MOVING?! B-BUT! ITS ONLY YOUR FIRST YEAR HERE!!! WHY WOULD YOU----"
"Axel...I'm not done." I pulled him back down. "Well...Promise we're best friend forever?"
"Yes, Demyx. Look. Pinky swear." He extended his pinky and we interlaced our pinkies and shook on it.
I let out a sigh. "Axel...how do you feel about gay people?"
Axel pondered for a bit. "They're fine...I mean, Xigbar's gay but he's still one of my best buds...Why?"
"Well...what if I told you I was gay...?" I looked at Axel for a response.
Axel smiled. "OH MY GOSH!!! LITTLE DEMMY IS GAY!!!!" He jumped around. "THAT IS SOO CUTE!!!!" he said pinching my cheeks.
I swatted his hands away and pouted. I was getting all worried for nothing!!!
"It was soooo obvious that you have a crush on little Zexy!" Axel danced around some more---wait...Did he just say it was OBVIOUS?!
"It was obvious?!?!" I stood up. Crap!! not good!!! I started hyperventilating.
"Whoa. Demmy, calm down. This is me we're talking about. Everything is obvious to me! Got it memorized?" He said lifting his right index finger to tap the side of his head.
I sat down. "Since when have you known?"
Axel sat next to me. "A looooooong time ago." there was a moments silence but Axel broke the ice. "I also heard that you were ditching me for Zexion!"
"Axel! I did not ditch you for Zexio--"
He hmph'ed. "Fine! Go to your Zexion! I don't care!!!"
"But Axel! I---"
He mocked cried. "I can't believe you Demmy! I thought we shared something special!!!"
I smiled. "Axel...you are the bestest friend I've ever had you know?"
Axel stopped mock crying and stood up. "Yeah. Thats cus I'm the almighty coolest one so of course I'm the best!"
I stood up and slung my arm around his neck, which proved to be very difficult. he is WAY tall! "Namine doesn't have a seatmate. I kinda hoped that you could---"
"Yes, Demyx. I know... I digress... we should get back to class. It's already 2nd period."
