A/N: These updates are starting to become really inconsistent... I'm sorry. (T^T) On another note everything on this chapter escalated a lot quicker then I'd hope...
Zexion woke up that morning flustered and with a slight pain in his hand, He stared at his hand analyzing what looked to be chain marks on it.
He looked over to the right side of his bed and saw the small Locket connected to a chain he sighed then made a mental note to stop falling asleep clutching hard objects.
He swung his legs over the side of his bed. "...I'm Getting soft." Zexion said to himself, he stood up and walked over to his closet and pulled out his school uniform then tossed it on the bed.
...Yes there was something on Zexion's mind. "I shouldn't give Demyx special treatment." Zexion noted scolding himself.
He then pulled out a black hoodie and tossed that on his bed as well. "But..." He sat back down on his bed and started to undress.
His eyes wandered over to his clock which read: 5:30 AM.
"He's cute..." He then started to have imaginations about Demyx and his smile... "Bad Zexion bad!" He scolded himself then finished dressing.
"School should be 'fun' today..." Zexion sighed then opened his door and exited his room.
He was being avoided Zexion was definitely avoiding him, he ran when he waved to him on the side-walk and he has ignored him throughout class.
"Zexion!" Axel grabbed Zexion by the wrist and pulled him out of his chair, a little more aggressive than he probably intended.
When exactly did he enter the classroom that Demyx did not know.
Being manhandled seemed to snap Zexion out of his little 'daze' and he shot a fierce glare at Axel ...which didn't seem to do much
because he responded back with a predatory grin. "What do you want." Zexion asked trying to free himself from Axel's grip.
"Just a little of your time." He answered the grin still spread wide across his face.
Zexion paused and narrowed his eyes suspiciously at Axel. "When where and why?" Zexion questioned.
"Tomorrow where Kairi works, and we need to talk." Axel Explained loosening his grip.
Zexion took that as his chance and snatched his arm away. "About what?" He asked then started rubbing his wrist.
Axel glanced over at Demyx then looked back at Zexion. "Personal... matters." Axel answered and walked slightly closer to Zexion.
The display and lack of space between them was starting to make Demyx very uncomfortable, he coughed as loud as he could without hurting his throat in the process, finally catching their attention.
They both turned and looked at him and Demyx spoke. "Well if it's just a short conversation couldn't you talk about it on the roof-top." Demyx looked down at his feet. "...Not that it's any of my business."
"Ah..." Zexion made a strange noise then quickly covered his mouth. "Y-yeah let's do that." Zexion responded his words slightly muffled by his hands.
Why exactly was he brought along with them to the roof for their 'private' conversation really confused Demyx.
"Why am I here exactly?" Demyx asked leaning against the door to the roof-top. Axel shrugged he didn't seem to care anymore.
Zexion looked over to Demyx and spoke up. "It was your idea."
That was true it was his idea and he had been curious about their conversation but he didn't really wanna know.
"Ugh... that doesn't mean I'm supposed to participate." Demyx groaned.
Axel let out a sigh and looked back at Zexion. "Anyway, It's just a rumor but..." Axel paused he glanced over to Demyx then back at Zexion. "I heard 'She' was coming back." He finished.
Zexion tilted his head to the side. "She?" Zexion questioned, Axel nodded in response. "...wait you don't mean."
Axel put a hand on his hip. "Yep apparently when summer break starts she's gonna be moving back."
"That's good, right?" Zexion asked.
Axel put both of his hands on his shoulders. "No that's not good! you need to avoid her!" Axel shouted then leaned in closer. "Avoid her like the plague!" he finished.
"Huh but why?" Zexion questioned not getting where Axel was going.
"Because shes bad for you."
Zexion put a finger to his lip. "How so?" Zexion asked.
Demyx glanced over at Zexion and Axel, they were still talking but at a lower volume so he couldn't hear them very well, they were certainly close that was for sure, could he ever become like that with Zexion he thought to himself.
"Hangout with Demyx or something." Demyx whipped his head around and looked at Axel at the mention of his name.
"With who!?" Demyx questioned causing them to look at him.
"You heard us?" Axel asked and Demyx nodded. "How much...?"
Demyx looked up at a random cloud in the sky. "I don't know something about some girl whose not good for him and needs to be avoided." He answered.
"So you didn't hear why." Axel asked.
Demyx looked away from the sky and turned to Axel. "Nope."
Axel grinned mischievously at Demyx and he flinched back. "Good." Axel dragged Zexion over to Demyx pulling him by the wrist and pushed Zexion into Demyx arms.
"Huh?" Demyx looked down at Zexion, blinking very confused about what was going on.
"Watch him." Axel demanded.
"...Why?." Demyx questioned slowly dragging out the why.
"Because I'm gonna be busy when summer starts and I need a suc- friend... who can watch him." Axel answered.
"He's not a baby." Demyx noted slightly annoyed.
"He drinks lots of milk sleeps at awkward times and requires lots of attention or he'll break something, sounds like one to me." Axel answered in a matter fact way.
"He has an older brother." Demyx replied.
Axel folded his arms. "He can't know about this."
"And why is that."
"None of your business."
Demyx glared at Axel then pulled Zexion away from himself. "Hey don't you have anything to say about this."
"Not... really I don't usually do much in the summer, and we're really just going to be hanging out." Zexion answered.
Demyx face-palmed then sighed. "Well if you don't mind I guess I can."
Demyx answered pretending to sound as reluctant as he possibly could when in actuality he was very excited.
All the classes ended and school was over for the day, Demyx was still debating whether or not he really wanted to spend his entire summer with a guy he just met.
His train of thought was interrupted by Zexion's voice. "Hey did you have any plans for the rest of the day."
Demyx looked up from his desk and at Zexion. "No."
"Wanna come with me to club?" Zexion asked.
"Sure..." He answered. "but you do know I'm not a member." Demyx added smiling at Zexion.
"Yeah." Demyx gathered his things then they left the classroom, as they walked down the hall Zexion revived the topic. "But ...you could be ya know."
Demyx looked down at Zexion and gave him wry smile. "I'm no good at cooking." he noted.
"But neither is Axel." Zexion clarified.
"Being a taste tester sounds deadly." Demyx joked making Zexion laugh.
"I tried." Zexion said giving up on recruiting him.
They went silent for a while then Demyx spoke up. "So who is this mysterious girl Axel was talking about earlier."
"My ex." Zexion answered simply.
"Ex?" Demyx repeated slightly shocked by the news that Zexion had a girlfriend.
"Yeah, nice girl." He said.
"Oh..." Not wanting to pry anymore and the fact that they were now in-front of the club-room Demyx let it go there.
Roxas Sora and Marluxia Were inside eating something that Demyx guessed was some kind of curry.
"Oh you brought 'that guy' with you today." Roxas said with an uninterested tone.
"My names Demyx!" He said to Roxas and he laughed then went back to eating the mystery food. "Humph!" Demyx took a chair and sat down.
"Hey Demyx." Sora greeted.
"Hey..." Demyx rested his chin in the palm of his hand then started staring at Zexion.
Roxas looked over to Zexion than to Demyx. "So why did he bring you hear anyway?"
"Don't know." Demyx answered while still staring at Zexion.
"Why did you come?" Roxas asked.
"Don't know." Demyx Repeated.
Roxas threw his arms into the air. "Don't just answer 'don't know' to everything!" he complained.
"Sorry." Demyx answered still not paying him any attention.
One of Roxas eyes started to twitch. "Whats so interesting about him anyway." Roxas asked in a hushed volume.
"Everything." Demyx answered still not really paying him attention.
Roxas slumped back into his chair. "Wow you're obsessed." Roxas went back to his food and decided it would best for his sanity if he ignored Demyx completely.
Sora decided he would have a go at questioning Demyx. "So why are you so into Zexion anyway you've only known him for six days." Sora asked.
"Don't know." Demyx answered subconsciously.
Roxas glared at Demyx angrily. "Stop saying 'don't know' darn it!"
Sora sweat dropped at his answer. "I guess you can't explain love huh?"
"No... more like obsession than anything." Demyx answered still staring at Zexion.
"He admitted it!" Roxas shouted louder than he intended catching Zexion's attention.
"Admitted what?" Zexion asked
Roxas and Sora shook their heads and waved their hands in the air. "Nothing!" they shouted simultaneously.
"Oh..." Zexion turned around and went back to talking to Marluxia shrugging them off.
"Phew..." they said simultaneously.
Demyx looked at them then his stomach growled. "I'm Hungry."
Roxas eye twitched and Sora did a nervous laugh and slid a plate over to Demyx.
Zexion finished talking to Marluxia and cooked a lot of things Demyx had never seen before they ate and talked about many topics Demyx was left out on making him feel like a third wheel.
they left an hour after all that and started heading home.
"What were you three talking about anyway." Zexion asked.
"Nothing they were just being nosey." Demyx answered.
Zexion blinked at Demyx. "About what?" He questioned looking up at Demyx.
Demyx looked away embarrassed. "Uh... nothing." Zexion narrowed his eyes at the obvious lie.
"..."
"...So about tomorrow..." Demyx started, getting off the subject. "You're still free right?"
"Tomorrow?" Zexion questioned unsure of what he was talking about.
Demyx sweat dropped then continued. "The date?" Demyx answered and Zexion tilted his head.
"Doesn't ring a bell." Zexion said simply causing Demyx to drop his head. "Oh but we could go on one, I never do anything on Sundays anyway." Zexion laughed nervously to try to lighten up the mood.
Demyx sighed, Zexion had completely forgot about the original date, so he decided to change the subject. "Want to get some ice-cream."
Zexion stretched his arms then yawned. "Sure." He answered.
"Sea-salt?" He asked raising an eyebrow.
Zexion clasped his hands together. "Strawberry!"
"Okay." Demyx grabbed Zexion's hand then sprinted for the Ice-cream shop.
"W-why are we running!" Zexion shouted stumbling slightly.
"Because they'll close in fifteen minutes!" Demyx replied then made a sharp turn.
Zexion shouted as he narrowly avoided slamming into a wall "aah!"
Zexion kneeled over panting heavily with his hands on his knees. "Its official you're crazy."
"I'm not crazy!" Demyx protested as he held out a strawberry popsicle out towards him.
"Hehe." Zexion laughed then grasped ahold of the popsicle stick. "Thanks."
They sat down on a bench and started eating the Popsicle's
Zexion looked at the blue Popsicle in Demyx hand and decided to ask about the flavor. "So how does it taste?"
"Like salt sprinkled on a blue-berry Popsicle." He answered in Zexion laughed. "The ones back home are better..."
"Where did you live before moving here anyway?" Zexion questioned.
"In Twilight Town, Its a little different from Radiant Garden in more ways than one."
"How so?" Zexion Asked.
"The people there aren't as... friendly."
Zexion nodded his head and the conversation died after that, they went into a comfortable silence for awhile until Zexion spoke up again.
"You know Demyx you're a nice guy." Zexion said smiling at him.
"Huh?" Demyx turned away from his popsicle to look at Zexion. "What do you mean?"
Zexion looked up at the sky. "Buying me Ice-cream and being all sweet and kind... thank-you."
"Well anyone would be kind to the person they like."
Zexion and Demyx stared at each other for a long time before the words finally sunk in and hit them both and their faces flushed red.
"W-wha!?" Zexion questioned jumping back away from him.
"I-I Nothing! s-see you tomorrow!" Demyx jumped up and ran off leaving Zexion alone and confused.
"What just... huh!?" Zexion leaned against the back of the bench and Sighed.
