Winner takes the Blond
- 4 -
- Final Chapter -
Axel poked the sleeping blond. He was waiting in the blond's room for Roxas to wake up, but sadly he must have been out late last night. He shoved the keybearer after a while, he heard a protest of a noise and laughed, "Morning sleepyhead."
"Morning…" Roxas glanced at Axel with sleepy eyes; he sighed exhaustingly and shoved his face in the pillow.
"Something up?" Axel blinked.
"Yeah…" The Key of Destiny sat up a bit, "I just… I have to pick between two right now."
The Flurry of Dancing Flames smiled, "You know I'm the right one."
Roxas laughed a bit, "Axel…"
"I know." The redhead sat on the blond's bed. "Talk to me about it."
"It's just… Demyx is so sweet and he needs someone so badly, and then there's Saïx… And he needs me as well… And I don't know what will happen if I chose the wrong one…"
The redhead smiled, "well who do you want more?"
Roxas blinked, he was hesitant to say and just looked at Axel. "I don't know."
"Liar." The flames just stood up, "Today is probably gonna be a slow day."
Roxas nodded and lied down on his bed; Saïx was strong and would always protect him… He would make everything perfect… And then there was Demyx, who was just the sweetest thing, his soft features entranced Roxas with feelings he didn't understand…
He pushed his head in his pillow.
After a while, Roxas looked around the room, his blue eyes scanned his own room. He was deep in his thoughts, to be honest he did not like the idea that bets were made on his choice but then again, it got him to meet four new people on personal terms.
"Something wrong?" Luxord stepped in, his cloak wavered a little.
"Kind of." Roxas stared; he was a bit angry at this man. He started it all, it was his entire fault. "Why did you do it?"
The gambler scratched his beard and smiled, "Think of it this way, Axel and Marluxia only wanted a night with you. I went out of my way and changed it so that it's a more love-oriented. I guess you could say I wanted to help the new member."
Roxas blinked, he looked down at the floor and sighed, "I think I know who I want the most."
Luxord blinked in surprise, "Already?"
"Yesterday made it clear." The blond explained, "But there is a problem..."
"Oh..." Luxord smirked, he was never much of a cheater but if he could nudge Roxas towards his vote, Demyx, he would.
* * *
Roxas walked into The Grey Area with Luxord, he scanned the room and saw all four candidates were there. "I uh... made my choice."
Marluxia stood up, brushed himself off and walked over to Roxas.
Axel just threw himself off the couch and sprinted over.
Demyx was a bit hesitant but eventually joined the others.
Saïx stood up, walking calmly. Feeling the moon in his steps.
Luxord looked over and saw Larxene, Xigbar and Xaldin also there. Aside from them, Zexion was looking out the window and Lexaeus was with him.
"Uh well." Roxas blushed a bit, "Let me start with who didn't win."
"Oh suspense." Marluxia smiled.
"Marluxia." He spoke with a blush. "Y-you um... You meant a lot to me and were always that kind of Prince Charming that comes out of nowhere and makes my day but... I think your just, too dreamy and not real."
"Ouch." Marluxia laughed and turned away, "Didn't think I would win anyway."
"Axel." Roxas blinked, "I uhm... you're really nice to me, always there for me... Introduced ice cream to me, and I friendship you alo-"
Marluxia turned, "Did you just say 'you friendship him'?"
"He has a verb confusion." Axel explained, hiding his smile.
"Shut up!" Roxas blushed, he blushed so hard Axel and Marluxia were sorry they lost. "I just... you're a really good friend and I think I want you as a friend."
Axel nodded to say he understood, taking a seat besides Larxene he smiled. "Let's see, your vote against your boyfriends..."
Larxene smiled, "I wonder what will happen."
"The winner is..." He looked over to Luxord. He was given a nod and nodded back.
Zexion turned around, "Speak up, this is interesting."
Lexaeus only laughed.
Roxas blushed, it was clear, he doubted himself. "I uh... I love..."
Xigbar raised an eyebrow.
"I uh..."
Axel bit his lower lip, Larxene tensed.
Roxas put his head down and blushed.
Xaldin was intrigued; Marluxia was looking with a smile.
"Saïx." He whispered, "I love you."
Demyx smiled a bit and took a step back. He allowed the winner to claim the prize he also wanted.
The Luna Diviner blinked, "Why?" The blue haired man spoke out of denial. A smile on his lips, happiness truly returning to his heart.
"Because..." Roxas sighed, "I might not be affected by moons, but when I'm with you... Everything is perfect."
The comment was closed between a kiss, Axel made some noises cheering them on and Xigbar only shook his head... What truly broke the moment was Larxene screaming at the top of her lungs. "I just won forty million munney!" She shouted and ran down the halls zapping randomly at the walls.
"You guys bet forty million?" Roxas blinked, he felt Saïx' warm arms around him and he smiled.
"Yes, we did." Luxord smiled, "Congratulations Saïx."
The Luna Diviner nodded, his eyes fell upon a Demyx. The blond was not that happy, probably wanted to win as much as he did. He watched Demyx leave the room and didn't stop Roxas from going after him.
"Demyx." Roxas called out to the other blond.
"W-what?" His sadness was truly evident.
"I just um..." Roxas sighed, "I wanted to say something."
"S-say it!" He was on the verge of tears.
"When I was with you, I think it was more of both of us wanting someone than wanting each other." He sighed, "You just... I don't want to see Larxene zap you anymore; you have to stand up for yourself... Please..."
Demyx blinked, "I'll try..."

One Week Later
Xemnas looked out the window. His hands behind his back, Vexen was telling him about the research he did. Xigbar was on the couch as usual with Xaldin.
On the other side of the room, Roxas sat next to Saïx... They were not big fans of public affection so they did not do anything that would hint their relationship. On occasion the two did get careless; a small kiss in a hallway would end up by one of the other members getting really mad. They had each other. No matter what happened, the two were found together.
Every night, the two would go to the clock tower of Twilight Town, they would watch the moon together. Most people would not expect them to be a relationship, but they did not care. They were in love and that was all that mattered. Roxas threw his eyes over to Luxord who was next to Xaldin, giving him a smile and a nod.
Suddenly, a blond nocturne ran into the room as if running for his life, he looked around the room for a place to hide and jumped behind his superior. Xemnas gave a protest but was silence by another scream.
"DEMYX!" A woman, douched in water... Completely drenched, sparks flew around her body as her element fought against Demyx' she screamed in pain, "YOU ASS HOLE!"
The room stopped.
Everyone just blinked.
Silent as it was, a single noise cracked it.
Xemnas laughed, laughing loudly he could not stop. The emotionless being burst into idiotic laughter.
Luxord was suppressing his own laugh but it made its way out.
"Shut up!" Larxene shouted.
Xigbar couldn't help himself, Xaldin also began laughing.
"I said shut up!" Larxene laughed a little herself, "Shut up!"
Vexen simply placed a palm over his forehead and smiled.
Saïx smiled and looked to Roxas, "Shall we leave before it gets too bad?"
"Yes." The blond gave him a kiss on the cheek and they walked in a dark portal. Saïx brought them to his own room, looking around he put his hands on Roxas' hips.
"S-Saïx!" He blushed, "I uh, um."
The blue haired man kissed his lover, "I love you Roxas."
"L-love you too." Roxas pushed his head in the other's chest. Perfection, he was happy here and there was no better place in this entire world than in Saïx' arms. Roxas snuggled himself on the other and smiled, "I love you so much."

Axel and Marluxia were lying down on a field of flowers. "You know..."
"Yes?" The pink haired man sighed.
"It was kind of fun." The redhead smiled, "We should do it again."
"Roxas has a boyfriend." Marluxia sighed, "Stupid."
"Demyx doesn't." Axel smirked; he turned his head so Marluxia's eyes met his.
"Oh you're evil..." The floral assassin laughed, "Who do you think will join in?"
"Probably Zexion... Maybe Vexen..."
"Maybe even Xemnas." The floral one smiled.
"Don't get your hopes up." Axel sighed, he rolled over on to Marluxia, "Now... I don't know if you mind."
The assassin smiled, "Well Axel turn of events... the one who said I can't fuck, wants me to fuck him."
The redhead smirked, and kissed Marluxia, "Oh don't be a girl, deal with it."
