The Desperate And The Clueless

Chapter 11

Rejection?

When Demyx had came in today to help Miss. Sno reorganize the books at the library, he had been expected a nice relaxing day of filing and shelving, not to be grabbed and pressed up against the nearest shelf with a set of angry green eyes on him and promptly being called dumb and kissed. Demyx brought a trembling hand up to his lips. He had been kissed before but never with such desperation and want. Brushing his hand over the lingering warmth, when one thought finally caught up to him.

His face flushed a deep red. 'Axel liked him, he like him of all people.'

Demyx new he wasn't the brightest crayon in the box when it came to things like this. He couldn't understand why anyone would like him like that. He was ditsy, clumsy, and a bit of a nerd. 'How and when did this happen?' He sat there for a while to try and clear his thoughts, taking a deep breath he steady himself on the shelf, his knees threatening to buckle underneath him. 'He better start putting rest of these books back. Could people tell he'd been kissed? He had to get back to his room.' Flushing with embarrassment he quickly shelved the books, so he could make a quick retreat before anyone noticed.

He only had retreat in mind, walking swiftly towards the door but his escape was not meant to be.

"Demyx?"

'Oh crap, okay quite being silly its not like anyone can tell that you were just ravished.' Nodding to himself he turned around to face Miss. Sno. She was about middle age with smile lines on her face and long reddish hair.

"Are you done already?"

"Yes Miss. Sno, I'm sorry I can't stay much longer but Ill come again tomorrow."

"Ok Dear, I'll see you tomorrow."

Demyx only got a few more steps towards the door before Miss. Sno called out to him again.

"Demyx... your lips are a little swollen, did something happen? I saw that red head thats been hanging around you lately leave in a hurry, you guys didn't have a fight did you?"

"No-o, we didn't."

"Ahh I see..." Demyx blushed and sputtered under her knowing look.

'She knew, some how she just knew.' His blush deepened and he muttered out a hasty goodbye and sprinted for the door.

When he finally got out, Demyx pressed his back against the door. 'What was he going to do? He had little to no experience in this area. Marluxia! He needed to talk to him...But he was still on vacation. He'd just have to avoid Axel until he found out what to do next.' Nodding to himself and taking a calming breath he finally noticed it was raining.'Aw crap, he knew he should of grabbed his umbrella, oh well.' At that last thought Demyx ran to catch the next bus.

Demyx thought he had done a pretty good job of avoiding Axel. When he saw him in the hall he ran in the other direction, when Axel would come looking for him at the library he would hide under Miss. Sno's desk, who kindly didn't tell Axel were he was. But Demyx had a feeling he didn't believe her. And he didn't answer the door when Axel came. It was cowardly, but hey no one said he was really brave now did they? And he'd been doing this for 4 days now.

When Marluxia had finally returned that evening, Demyx had waiting for him by his room.

When his friend had returned he promptly grabbed him not allowing him to change or put away his luggage and dragged him to the pastries shop. They ordered there food and drinks and talked about what Marluixas did on his vacation. Everything was nice until Marluxia started to question him about what he'd been doing on his vacation, which he avoid mentioning any thing that had to do with Axel. He wasn't sure how he should bring the subject and he found even though he wanted to talk about it he couldn't quite bring himself to say anything.

"Demyx? What happened?"

"What? Nothing..."

"Something happened, you've been fiddling with that napkin since we got here. Has it got something to do with Axel?"

He felt the his whole face flush and averted his eyes at the mention of the red heads name.

"It was, wasn't it?" Marluxia lend in, with a eager look.

After a lot of prodding and badgering, Demyx finally broke down.

"Axel, he uhh kissed me." He was ringing the napkin between his hands now.

"Finally! I was wondering when he'd make his move. Details please!?" Marluxia looked like he was going to pounce on the poor blond.

"Wah?" The expression on Demyx's face was indescribable, a mixture of confusion and uncertainty and some other emotion that Marluxia couldn't quite place.

"Well he has liked you for a while now."

"What! How long?"

"I'm not sure, I noticed on day one but I think it started way before I came along."

"Bu—t how is that possible, he's always made fun of me and been kind of mean basically ever since I met him."

Marluxia leaned back in his chair and put his hands behind is head. "That may be true, but maybe he did that to get your attention. Though if you ask me he went about it all wrong."

The napkin was shredded, Demyx still fiddling with the remains. "Well, how do I reject him?"

"Reject?"

"You know deny, refuse, decline."

"I know what you mean Demyx. I mean why reject him?"

"Well I ..." 'He really couldn't find a reason why he should reject Axel, he was nice, granted he wasn't before, he was attractive, they actually got along now that Axel wasn't constantly picking on him. And he did have fun going places with him, but did he actually think of Axel like that?'

"I think you should think about the whole situation, before you make your decision."

"Yeah...I will."

Their discussion was smoothly changed by Marluxia which Demyx was thankful for, and they talked for 20 more minutes before leaving. On his arrival to his room Demyx walked straight to his bedroom and collapsed on his bed. 'What was he going to do? How could he have not seen this, was he that blind? How could he have not noticed before? How Axel had been looking at him recently, how he'd always reach for his hand, cuddled with him on the couch, the hugs, presents and sweets. He didn't notice anything.' He caught sight of the dolphin, Axel had won him that one time at the... 'Oh my God! That was a date! wasn't it! All those times was a date, even the celebration at the Foxglove! He so utterly blind!'

Groaning as he rolled over and cuddled the dolphin to his chest, rubbing his face in to it.

'What was he going to do?'
