Demyx stared in shock at the wall of snow that blocked the entrance to the cave. It had been such a simple, recon in the Land of Dragons with Saix. But they had been surrounded by an army of Bolt Towers. This 'distraction' held them back long enough for Xemnas to come looking for them.
It was really his fault. Somehow Demyx had managed to step on one of the dragons of this world's tail. The ice dragon didn't like that too much and sent the entire pile of snow on top of the mountain after them. Saix had thought quickly enough and pulled them into the cave just in time before the avalanche swallowed them. Though, it wasn't as great as they thought.
Xemnas had tried to open a portal to take them home, only to have it fizzle and die before it could form. Now they were stuck in a damp, freezing cave with no way of opening a portal. That was just wonderful…
Demyx sat with his knees to his chest as he watched Xemnas, who was still trying to open a corridor. Saix was further in the cave, trying to find a way out. This was all his fault. They were going to die here, die and leave behind shivering shells. He looked up as Saix rejoined them, his shivering visible.
It only he was Axel he could help the Diviner and the Superior so they didn't freeze to death. He blinked as Saix sat next to him. "There's a split in the path. They might lead outside but there's no way to be sure." The berserker said, gaining Xemnas's attention.
"We should try a path after we rest." The Superior said going to sit down away from them.
"Don't be stubborn Xemnas," Demyx said. "You'll freeze if you're by yourself."
"Doesn't make much of a difference. We could freeze all together, warmth travels by skin to skin contact." Saix added. Demyx looked at him, frowning at wondering how Saix knew that. The Diviner's golden eyes flashed to his, a guarded look in those depts.
"Then why don't we try that?" Xemnas asked, already stripping out of his coat.
"S-Superior! You can't be serious!" Saix gasped out in shock.
"I am. You said so yourself. Even if we are huddled together we still could freeze." Xemnas said, fully taking off his coat. Demyx's eyes widened as Saix stood and unzipped his own coat, his face turning scarlet as he looked between his two superiors' chest.
"Y-you two are seriously stripping…then going to huddle together…"
"Would you rather freeze?" Saix asked. Demyx swallowed harshly. This was both a good thing and a bad thing. It just HAD to be these two! If it was any other two members (with the exception of Vexen, Axel, and Larxene) it wouldn't be affecting him this much.
"Nine," The Nocturne's eyes flashed up to Xemnas. "Am I going to have to order you to strip?" Demyx choked on air. Kingdom Hearts must hate and love him. Slowly he stood and unzipped his coat with a shaking hand. Once it was of, he held it to his chest, feeling guilty at seeing their scarred chest but only having a few. Of course, if he was still a somebody it would be a different story.
"Shortest in the middle." Saix said as he sat down, using his coat as a barrier between his pale back and the icy cave wall.
"Why?"
"The smallest person looses body heat fastest." Xemnas said. Demyx mentally groaned and sat next to Saix with some space between him and the Diviner.
"…I'm not going to bite you." Saix stated. "You're not close enough to get any heat." Before Demyx could protest Xemnas sat down next to him, almost on top of him. Saix closed the space between Demyx and himself, sandwiching the blond. Demyx shivered, closing his eyes. He could feel Xemnas's slightly warm skin and Saix's chilled skin. He bit his lip, trying not to think about the fact he had two shirtless men next to him and that those two were Xemnas and Saix. With closed eyes he couldn't help but notice how being huddled together actually made a difference…
It was so warm…
Demyx jolted slightly in his sleep, green eyes wide. That was the weirdest dream ever... He blinked as he felt something move on his shoulder. Demyx glanced down to see Xemnas, dark eyelids resting over amber eyes, his breathing soft. Quickly, he looked at his other shoulder, only to see Saix using that one as a pillow as well.
A soft smile found its way onto the Nocturne's pink lips. Maybe stepping on that dragon's tail wasn't so bad. Demyx looked at the entrance, surprised to see the massive amount of snow gone and the sun shining. He carefully moved his arms to brush blue and silver hair out of his superiors' faces. He wouldn't wake them just yet. Besides, he was so warm right now.
