Part Five – Conflicting Emotions

Author's Notes: Okay! Guys, there's almost a lemon here. I guess it'd be more of a "lime." So don't read if you're going to get offended or anything. Other than that, please enjoy, read and review if you have the time!

I stared at the giant thing that had just come out of the sand in front of our eyes. It -- he, I suppose-- was the head of a black panther with glowing white eyes. I whimpered and moved over to Sachiel, latching onto his sleeve.

Sachiel immediately froze and turned his golden eyes onto me, frowning. "D-Don't do that."

I bit my lip and dropped my arms. "Sorry, Sachiel..."

He said nothing, shaking his head as he started to walk towards it. I hesitated, watching him climb up into the mouth of the creature and disappear. I whimpered and ran after him.

By the time I caught up to the heartless boy, he had gotten to a long staircase. He had stopped to wait for me, and I was grateful. There was no way I could catch up with him if he hadn't waited.

He walked a few steps ahead of me in silence, so I followed in the same fashion. I listened to the tapping of my heel against the hard, rock stairs as we moved slowly down into the darkness, getting lost in my own thoughts.

Suddenly, it seemed like the scenery had changed. Before my eyes, I saw the darkness melt away and be replaced with my newly pink painted room.

As I backed up, I felt arms close around me and I blushed softly, looking over my shoulder. Lips were pressed against mine and I flushed deeper at that. It was Sachiel.

He turned me around slowly, keeping me in his embrace. He looked me over and he smirked. I bit my lip softly, and looked away.

"Destiny, look at me."

My eyes slowly moved up until they locked with Sachiel's gold ones. I blushed softly again.

"S-sachiel..."

"Shhh." He placed a soft finger to my lips before kissing me again. I kissed back this time, a little slow and unsure. He was such a better kisser than me...

He turned me around again and started backing me to my bed. Once we got there, he pushed me over onto my back. I fell onto the soft, black, satin sheets and blushed softly, peering up at the blonde.

He smirked at me and started to strip down until he wore nothing but something that resembled a patent leather speedo.

I blushed deeply, looking over his body. His body was toned and he looked amazing. My eyes traveled from his chest, lower and I blushed. He had a trail of light hair that disappeared into his pants – if they could be called that-- which held a pretty considerably sized bulge.

"Mmm...Sachiel..." I bit my lip softly, feeling a shiver go up my spine. "God...you look...amazing..."

He smirked softly and leaned down, kissing me again. I felt his tongue start to pry gently at my lips, easing them open before he slipped it into my mouth. When his tongue started to tangle with mine, I gave a moan into his mouth. "S-Sachiel..."

He grinned, running his hands through my hair and then down my back, pulling my shirt up and off completely. I blushed softly and closed my eyes, letting him do whatever he wanted. His hands went to work on my bra next, finding the clasp and unhooking it, throwing it to the side.

"Sa-Sachiel..." I murmured softly, biting my lip, my hands going to cover myself instinctively.

He smirked. "Don't be so self conscious, Des'. You have a nice body."

I blushed deeper and slowly moved my hands, running them through Sachiel's soft blonde hair as he kissed down my neck, stopping to suckle gently on my collar bone.

I whimpered and rubbed my legs together. Slick. "S-Sachiel..." I whimpered, feeling him bite down into my neck, causing my back to arch up and a moan to escape past my lips.

I felt him smile against my skin as he moved down, kissing a trail to my belly button. He tugged my skirt down, running his cool, but calloused, fingers over my lower stomach, making me shiver and giggle softly. I was ticklish.

He cocked an eyebrow. "Ooh...you're ticklish, Dessi' aren't you?"

I shook my head furiously. No way I was going to let him know that. He'd torture me and I knew it. "Nope!"

He grinned. " Oh, you bad girl. You're lying. Shame on you...now you need to be punished."

I blushed softly, wondering for a moment what being punished meant, since it was coming from Sachiel. Would he hurt me? Or tease me? Or what? I looked up at him, biting my lip.

"Destiny? What's wrong? Are you afraid?" His perfect lips curved into a smirk. "I won't hurt you, I promse..."

"Destiny! Destiny, what's wrong?" Sachiel frowned at me and I was instantly snapped back to reality. I realized what happened. I had just had a fantasy about Sachiel. The very same Sachiel that called me names and treated me badly. "Destiny? You just got all...giggily and your face got red." The boy frowned again, leaning in to look at me.

"A-ah...nothing. S-sorry." I looked away, shutting my eyes tightly and rubbing my cheeks with the back of my hand. "I just... was thinking and...and I got...lost in thought. Yeah." I slowly nodded, deciding that would suffice.

He rolled his eyes and turned, starting to walk again. I could finally see light at the end of the staircase, and I was glad it wasn't too far off. All darkness scared me, portals or not...

"Hey, uh... what are we even doing down here?" I asked after hesitating for a long while.

"We've checked everywhere else for the Princess, haven't we? And obviously, we haven't found her, now have we? So what do you think we're doing here?"

I glared. See? There was no way I was actually falling for this big jerk. "Fine, whatever. You don't have to be all sarcastic about it, I just asked."

"I know, but you ask too many questions..." He sighed as we reached the bottom of the stairs. We walked into a huge Chamber. It was empty, aside from the Princess and... Riku.

"What the hell!?" He growled, crossing his arms and glaring across the room at the white-haired boy as he hoisted the Arabian Princess over his shoulder. He turned and smirked at us.

Sachiel growled and started towards him when I grabbed his arm.

"Sachiel! Don't! You're going to get yourself hurt again!" I pulled him back.

The boy glared at me before whirling to face me. "Destiny, do not tell me what to do, do you understand me?"

"But Sachiel!"

"But nothing. Shut up." He growled, ripping his arm out of my grip and turning back to Riku. Unfortunately, the boy had already gone into a portal. Sachiel cursed and punched the wall as hard as he could, shaking his head as he turned away.

"This was a waste of time...let's go back home..."

Oxoxoxoxoxo

I walked into the Castle Chapel, nearly dragging my feet. I was barefoot and dressed in Pajamas. It had to be close to Midnight, but I couldn't sleep. Sachiel was still on my mind...

I crossed the room completely and sat on the two, low steps, drawing my legs to my chest and hugging them close. I couldn't be becoming fond of Sachiel. He treated me so badly. And what about Sora? He was nice... even if he didn't care enough to come looking for anyone other than Kairi or Riku.

I leaned my chin on my knees as I tried to sort out my emotions. Who did I care about? Who cared about me? I gave a sigh and lifted my head when I heard the door open.

Sachiel had entered the room. Apparently he couldn't sleep either.

"...Hey. What's wrong...? Having trouble sleeping?"

He shook his head. "I'm always up this late." He murmured softly, crossing his arms. "Why are you up? You're usually out by ten..."

I pouted. "And just how would you know?"

"I check on you sometimes." He murmured, looking away. "You've still got half a heart. The heartless could get you, you know..."

I pouted softly. But it made me happy that someone in this castle did actually care about me enough to make sure I wasn't being attacked or something. "I can take care of myself."

"Yeah, yeah, sure you can..."

"Sachiel!! Stop being all sarcastic! It's not niiiice!" I whined, pulling my legs to my chest tighter.

"Does it look like I care?" He rolled his eyes. "Because I don't. I'm not nice."

I glared. "You're such a heartless bastard." I shouted before covering my mouth. Embarrassed. That really wasn't very nice. I covered my head, expecting to be hit.

"Damn right." He said, looking me in the eye and giving a nod before turning and walking off.

I watched him go and sighed heavily, deciding that I should catch some sleep, thinking about the blonde or not. I looked around again before standing, praying that I wouldn't run into Sachiel again. I didn't want to find out if he was angry or just fine being called a 'heartless bastard.'

End Part Five

Author's Notes: I finished two chapters in one day! This chapter is shorter than last time, I know, and I'm sure it's riddled with errors, but it's past one thirty in the morning, so I'm going to bed. Please read and review, I'd love it!
