A/N: Second half of what was originally chapter 5 and is now chapter 6. I originally had a song in this chapter but I took it out and I can't remember what song I used in order to put it back in. Pretend that it's a bit melancholy but awesome. Suggestions would be appreciated if anyone felt like making any! Please enjoy.

Demyx woke up the next morning on the floor of the tiny hovel known as Merlin’s house. Sora had brought him back after their talk and after some hostile glares from Riku and Leon they agreed to let him stay for awhile; as long as he didn’t cause trouble. The only trouble the former Nobody was planning was for Marluxia and had stayed up late into the night trying to figure some things out. Finally he passed out on the floor with a blanket and slept until lunch time; where he proceeded to eat twice his body weight and wandered off into town.
It was strange living this way; he’d never done it before at least to his knowledge. Naturally anything before he woke up in The World that Never Was was still a mystery to him; one he was certain wouldn’t be solved any time soon. Maybe if he could figure out what was causing Xigbar’s amnesia and they lived happily ever after, then he could find out where he was from, what world would have housed such magnificence that was Demyx? He smiled as he headed outside into the sunlight. It was such a beautiful day that he didn’t quite notice the hubbub around him until a man bumped into him and then grabbed him to keep him upright. “Thanks!” Demyx chirped as he looked up at the man. His face paled as the familiar face smiled at him, it was Captain Morpheus from the pirate world!
“No it was all my fault, how about I buy you a drink to apologize eh?” the dark man teased as he reached up and patted Demyx’s head.
“Nothankyouamleavingnowbye-bye!” Demyx blurted out hurriedly as he ran in the opposite direction. So great was his desire to get away that he slammed into another person almost immediately in his haste and they both went flying into a nearby wall.
“Hey kiddo, watch where you’re going!” A deep voice chuckled from above him. His eyes went wide again as he looked up to see Xigbar smiling down on him. His arms instinctively tightened around the man’s waist but he was pried off. “Now, now, no need to hug me,” he laughed.
“Xigbar!” he smiled happily up at him. Demyx couldn’t believe his pure dumb luck! It must be a gift.
“Eh? How’d you know my name? I’ve never seen you before!” he laughed again. Demyx had never really seen Xigbar laugh like this and it was just a little creepy. But he could live with that, honestly he could live with anything as long as he could do with Xigbar.
“Uh, I…we…” he was cut off when a very irritating and familiar voice shouted “XIGGY!” at the top of their lungs.
“Xiggy there you are, what are you doing?” Marluxia demanded with a pout. Demyx pulled away guiltily and put his hands behind his back.
“Aw Marly nothing was going on,” Xigbar smiled. “The kid here just ran into me,” he explained.
“Oh hey you’re that punk from yesterday? What’s your deal I heard it was a small town but this is ridiculous!” Maluxia grumped as he inched closer to Xigbar and possessively grabbed his arm. “Run along now little Demyx and let the grownups play together,” he snapped. Demyx was so disoriented and surprised that he ran off without another thought, cursing his cowardly approach, he should have slapped Marluxia and said ‘No bitch he’s my boyfriend…”
“Run along now little Demyx and let the grownups play together.” The comment suddenly burst into his mind like a rampaging Dusk. How did Marluxia know his name? By all accounts he shouldn’t, they’d never been introduced in this world. Confusion swept over him as he tried to piece it together, but as usual the truth was always waiting patiently to slap him in the face as it finally dawned on him. Marluxia must remember him!
“DEMYX!” Sora’s voice cut into his thinking time and distracted him momentarily from his moody brooding. “Hey man, I told you to wait up and you totally ditched me!” Sora panted, trying to catch his breath.
“Sorry…” Demyx muttered distractedly as he thought about what to do about this sudden new development.
“What’s wrong? Are you crying?”
“No!” Demyx snapped defensively, as he surreptitiously wiped a frustrated tear from his eye.
“Oh yeah! I saw the guy you were looking for, Xigbar? I saw Marluxia with him too-,”
“Doesn’t matter because I saw them too,” Demyx interrupted bitterly. “I think, I think Marluxia knows me, as in…hasn’t lost his memory knows me.”
“That would be bad…” Sora said after a lengthy pause.
“Damn straight it is!” Demyx snapped. “I don’t know what to do now; I mean…I never thought this would be so complicated!”
“Well as much as I can understand that we should sit down and think of a way to fix the problem, but you know, encasing oneself in a giant cocoon of water might help!” he suggested cheerfully. He back pedaled as Demyx glared at him. Finally there was a sigh.
“What’s there to do around here that’s fun?” the former Nobody asked.
“Uh, good question…I usually just sit around and talk with Leon and Riku…” he shrugged.
Demyx sighed. “Well I suppose I’ll just have to create my own fun,” he smirked summoning his sitar. Sora blinked.
“I still don’t know how you do that…”
“I’ll show you the trick someday, now let’s see here…” he mused for a moment before he began playing soft, smooth chords. When he began to sing Sora just had to listen, there was something deep and intoxicating about the way his body rocked gently to the tune, the way his face showed his emotions on his face. His deep soulful voice attracted listeners from all over Traverse Town including Xigbar and Marluxia, but of course, it wasn’t hard to attract everyone within ear shot. Sora himself was dutifully impressed, especially because he wasn’t aware that Demyx had that kind of talent, but apparently when your catch phrase is dance water dance, you could make anyone sing.
He saw the other two nobodies and inched closer to Xigbar in order to catch a tidbit of their conversation. “Marly…ya know…it’s that kid from before I think I know him from somewhere else too..” he was saying to his pink-maned boyfriend.
“What the hell do you mean? You’ve never met him before in you life!” Marluxia snapped peevishly, immediately on the defensive, Sora even noted that his grip tightened on the older man.
“Don’t be jealous, I’m just saying. You’re the only one for me Baby,” his smile oozed charm and pacification. But Sora was too busy sneaking back to Demyx, who was inching away from his new fan girls.
“SORA HELP!!” he finally gurgled as they jumped him. Sora dove in and fished him out, the two of them running at full speed to a safer part of the town. Then they leaned against a wall and laughed their asses off. “I’ve never been popular before,” Demyx laughed as he wiped the tears from his eyes.
“You get used to it,” Sora laughed back. “Oh! I heard Xigbar say something about you being familiar,” he added. Demyx stopped laughing.
“Sora do you mean it?” he asked happily. Sora again found himself surprised by Demyx, he never expected a former Nobody to have such a brilliant and happy smile. “That’s great! Maybe I do have a chance in this world after all!”
“Don’t bet on it,” Marluxia’s voice suddenly snapped from the opening of the alley. “I thought I was seeing things when I saw you here. You’re so useless I thought it might be some sort of joke, I never realized that Xigbar was the one you were looking for.”
“What are you doing here Marluxia?” Demyx snapped. The pink haired Nobody shrugged.
“Wouldn’t you like to know?” Marluxia sneered. “I was given an opportunity and then found myself here and there was Xigbar and I always wanted to see what it would be like with him.” He trained off with a smirk. Demyx clenched his fists; Marluxia was deliberately being coy. What sort of opportunity had he been offered and by who? The same person who gave Demyx back his heart? Who might be behind whatever was happening between him and Xigbar? “Just be a good little boy and stay away from him will ya? He belongs to me,” he threatened as he turned and walked away, heel clicks fading on the cobblestones as he walked away without looking back.
Demyx slumped to the ground. “I can’t freaking believe it, Marluxia remembers me, but Xigbar doesn’t, somehow I’m not surprised,” he laughed darkly. Sora sat down next to him.
“Why don’t you just go talk to Xigbar when he’s alone, maybe you can get some questions answered?” Sora asked playing with the rocks in front of him.
“Yeah…maybe tomorrow,” Demyx sighed. “But for now…I’m hungry…”
“You’re going to get fat…”
“Nope, not me…I have fan girls now…”
“Ah…gotcha…”
