A/N: I was able to cut this chapter down into two separate ones because I hadn't realized it as 9 pages long in the word document. 6-7 pages I can excuse (mostly because it was just little blurbs on the last pages) but 9 is overkill. I apologize if you feel it ends abruptly but I did like that it tied in with Demyx's dream in the last chapter. Please enjoy!
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Demyx woke up after another strange dream, he and Roxas had been together again, they’d been sitting on a beach, watching the waves roll to their feet and then shrink away. In the sky hung the familiar heart shaped moon, surrounded by thousands and thousands of brilliantly twinkling stars. Roxas had leaned on him; the younger blond had always been a very good friend.
Now as his eyes adjusted to the dim, morning light he wondered again why he just couldn’t stay asleep, dream talking with Roxas was a lot more fun that seeing Marluxia with Xigbar. That thought of was enough to piss him off and he sat up, fully awake and ready to take on the world.
“Oh look you’re awake!” An older man said cheerfully as he rose from the table just a few feet away. Demyx regarded him with confusion along with the others that were sitting in various places around the room. Riku and the man named Leon were also sitting at the table glaring at him while the old man came and checked his temperature efficiently. Sora was rocking in a chair a few feet away from the bed Demyx was currently sitting in.
He almost protested the thermometer Merlin shoved into his mouth since he had never seen one before but thought better of it. “Your temperature seems normal, give me your wrist.” The old man said good-naturedly as he reached for the youth’s arm.
“Why?!” he immediately protested, clutching his wrist firmly to his chest, panic seeping into his voice.
“So I can check your pulse,” the man in the blue robe calmly explained. With a sulking look Demyx reluctantly held out his wrist. The old man took it with a surprisingly strong grip and counted silently. “This is absolutely remarkable! You really do have a heart!”
“Well duh!” Demyx groused. He looked pointedly at Sora “Told you we had hearts,” he stuck his tongue out at him. Sora’s response was to simply roll his eyes.
“Alright, alright whatever, now tell us what you’re doing here!” the brunette demanded.
“No! I don’t have to tell you a damn thing-!” the rest of his tirade was unexpectedly cut off as Riku, with surprising speed, appeared next to him with his lovely sword at his throat. Demyx glared at the younger man, hoping that sometime in the future he would experience a great deal of pain, ideally caused by him.
“Wanna rephrase that answer?” Riku demanded in a soft voice absolutely dripping with malice. With a final glare and a huff, Demyx shoulder’s collapsed.
“I don’t know how I got here.” He simply stated. Sora frowned, that wasn’t the answer he was looking for.
“Who were those two people you were talking to?” he continued.
“Oh them? THAT? That was Xigbar and Marluxia!” Demyx suddenly snarled as he remembered how loving Xiggy had been with that pink haired freak. “Xigbar is supposed to be MY lover,” Demyx added under his breath as he crossed his arms and stared moodily at the bed beneath him.
“Waitwaitwaitwaitwait!” Sora shouted as he began waving his hand in front of him mimicking a “stop” motion.
“You’re saying that this is all about getting your boyfriend back?” Riku interjected, shock clearly evident on his own face.
“Well Sora traveled all over the fuckin’ universe to get you back didn’t he?” Demyx snapped. Both boys blushed a furious shade of red and the man in the blue robe chuckled from across the room.
“Sora’s not my boyfriend…” Riku protested quietly. Was it Demyx’s imagination or did Sora look quite downcast at his friend’s statement? He decided to tuck that little tidbit away for later.
“Are all the organization members gay?” Leon drawled from his chair, nonplussed at the riot going on around him.
Before Demyx could snap his response Merlin floated (rather quickly) to his bedside and plopped a tray of food down in his lap. “Eat up young man, you’ll need your strength,” he clucked like a mother hen as he wandered back to the other side of the house. It took Demyx only a second to realize that he was, indeed, starving, he couldn’t remember the last time he’d eaten anything. There was chicken, soup, beef, salad and all other sorts of yummy smelling edible things on the wonderful tray. Demyx also discovered that the food was never ending as he polished off a large bowl of soup, a whole ham, three pieces of chicken, four salads, mashed potatoes and ribs, five glasses of water, six glasses of juice and what was probably an entire box of sea salt popsicles. The other boys could only stare as they watched the Melodious Nocturne devour food like a bottomless pit and then audibly purr whilst sucking on his dessert.
“So…uh…how is it that you can use your magic over water if you are no longer a Nobody?” Sora asked, finally voicing the question that had been bothering him for hours.
“I dunno,” Demyx shrugged. “I can even use it without my sitar too; I found that out in the last world I was in I did that sometimes before but there wasn’t a need and besides, I like playing,” he mused aloud.
“You said something about Xigbar being your boyfriend, want to elaborate?” Riku asked with a visible sneer. Demyx stiffened.
“No I don’t, now if you’ll excuse me I have other things I’d like to be doing now, such as killing Marluxia,” he huffed, standing to his feet and dusting himself off. He’d slept in his shoes…how embarrassing, but that saved him the trouble of learning to put them on. He walked out of the strange little house with no protest from the others and as he strode across the water, hopping from stone to stone he wondered why on earth they just let him go. Things were so strange now, weirder even than Wonderland! When he landed on dry ground he turned to see if anyone had come out of the house but was met with the surprising emotion of disappointment when he saw he hadn’t been followed. Bah! He didn’t need anyone, he had Roxas (maybe?) and soon, he’d have Xigbar too!
~*~
Meanwhile a fight was ensuing.
“I can’t believe you just let him walk out like that Sora! Did you forget that he tried to kill you like twice? What if he’s really going out there to recruit new Nobodies!” Riku was arguing.
“Riku that’s not fair! If he was going to do that don’t you think he’d have started already? He was just walking around when I first saw him!” Sora defended Demyx. “Besides, you all tried to kill me at one point and now look at us, we’re a big happy family!” he shouted.
“Sora stop being so dense and stupid, that was totally different!” Riku shouted back as he grabbed Sora roughly by the arm.
“SHUT UP AND LEAVE ME ALONE!” Sora suddenly exploded as he pushed Riku away and ran out of the house and across the lake, footsteps echoing in the deep cavern below the city. Where on earth had that come from? Maybe it was the way that Riku had snapped so quickly that he wasn’t his boyfriend? Oh yeah and the other night was a total fluke…and the night before that…and a few days before that oh and that kiss the other week at the Flower Festival in Radiant Garden. Maybe he was just some cheap fuck to the guy he loved, and he’d never realized it. Maybe that was how Demyx felt right now having seen Marluxia and Xigbar together. It was the only conclusion he could really draw since the former Nobody hadn’t given him a lot of detail to go on. Suddenly feeling the need to find the other boy in the spirit of camaraderie Sora took off in the direction he thought Demyx would have headed.
As he ran out of the waterway and the building that housed the entrance to Merlin’s house he wasn’t paying attention and knocked straight into the very person he was looking for. They both went skidding across the ground, Sora on top of Demyx who had instinctively grabbed Sora and protected him from taking the brunt of the fall. Sora sat on his lap and looked down at the other man and grimaced. “Oops…”
Demyx propped himself up with his arms and glared at Sora with a funny little pout. “What’s your deal?” he snapped.
“My deal? What’s your deal? I’m sorry I killed you okay? Obviously you’re not that bad of a guy…” he trailed off as he scrambled to his feet and offered a hand to Demyx. There was a moment of hesitation before Demyx reached up and took it, standing effortlessly to his feet. Sora thought for a moment that he might be in for another volley of fighting but Demyx gave a half hearted shrug and sighed deeply.
“Roxas was one of my best friends in the Organization. Before that it was just Axel and I and let me tell you, he was nothing like the Axel you met. He used to be all moody and emo and Xaldin and Xiggy would yell at him all the time to get his ass in gear but he just didn’t care. After Roxas showed up, everything changed…” he rubbed the back of his neck absently. “After Roxas went away Axel stopped caring again until he decided to do whatever it took to bring Roxas back.”
“Why was Roxas so important to you guys? Everyone in the Organization that I fought said something about it or hinted to it! You said it yourself that you were ordered to ‘Liberate my true disposition’.”
“I’m sure your friends would expect me to say that Roxas was important because he could wield the Keyblade or that even as a Nobody he was very strong both of which are true, but really I wanted to do it because he was my friend. He made me laugh when I was unhappy and he was always there if I wanted to talk to him. I don’t know, it sounds lame and stupid but he was my very dear friend.” He looked away for a moment before looking back at Sora.
“I wanted Roxas back more than anything, to make Axel happy, to have my friend back, even if that meant killing you to do it, I didn’t care. I got into a huge fight with Xigbar that day. He didn’t want me to go but I had to go, Xemnas had ordered it anyway and I got so mad at him! I wanted to prove to him that I was strong enough to do something this important, to show him that I was strong enough for him to lean on me sometimes instead of always having to carry around both of us you know? That’s what a relationship is, you share things. I loved him,” he muttered. “Well of course you know the ending to that story, we met and battled in Hallow Bastian and I went into the darkness.” Demyx gave a visible shudder and hugged himself as a vulnerable look passed over his face.
“Was it bad?” Sora asked timidly, head still spinning from the raw emotions he’d been shown from someone he assumed had no heart. Had they been wrong all along? Was it possible that Demyx and even Axel had developed hearts of their own?
“It was horrible!! I hated it so much and all I wanted to do was see Xigbar again and tell him how much I loved him and I wanted to be with him! Then there was this light, or something and the next thing I know I’m in Port Royal and Xigbar is some big bad pirate captain. I thought for a moment that I managed to make him remember me but then the darkness came and swallowed me up and the next thing I know I’m here in Traverse Town and MALUXIA IS DATING MY BOYFRIEND!” he bellowed into the air, frustration evident in his face and voice.
“I’m sorry, when I was fighting all of you guys I never really thought about what I was doing at the time and even afterwards, I thought I was saving the world and all that…I suppose you were right about having hearts.” Sora sighed.
“Eh, it’s fine, to be honest when I first arrived in the darkness I hated you with an undying passion but after awhile I realized it was pretty pointless since all I wanted was to be back with Xigbar. Besides, I’ve never really been able to hold grudges…” he admitted with a shrug. A long silence followed his confession and they both turned and listened to the water rippling in the water fountain behind them.
“You must have been one hell of a human before you became a Nobody…” Sora laughed suddenly, breaking the silence between them.
“Why do you say that?” Demyx looked at him curiously.
“I don’t know…I just have this feeling that you were someone really important,” Sora shrugged as he put his hands in his pockets. “I get these feelings sometimes, that’s just one of them.”
Demyx looked at him again. Roxas had said the same thing a long time ago. “Thanks!” he smiled.
“Mind if I hang out with you for awhile?” the younger boy asked with a shy smile, his feet kicking at the loose stones beneath his feet.
“Even though I tried to kill you multiple times?” Demyx asked with a smirk and a quirked eyebrow.
“Hey, everyone’s friends should try killing them once in awhile, it keeps life interesting,” Sora smirked back as he shrugged fatalistically.
“Well, okay!” there was a pause. “Does that mean we’re friends?” Demyx asked quietly.
“If that’s what you want us to be,” Sora said as he looked up at Demyx with his boyish grin.
“And you promise you won’t forget me if I go to another world and find you there?”
“Nah Demyx, I’d never forget you!”
