"Zexy!" A voice echoed off the empty halls, the sounds of footsteps drawing closer with every passing moment.  "Zexy!" The voice grew louder, as the hooded being drew closer to his destination. "ZEXY!" shouted the mysterious figure.

"Mmm" Was the disgruntled reply. Panting the hooded figure stepped into the doorway, the hood slowly slipping backwards. A pink lock of hair shone brightly against the black cloak. Zexion was lying on his bed, reading his book silently.

"Didn't you hear me call you!?" the pink haired teen yelled. Zexion, still lying on his bed, ignored his friend's voice, and turned the page. "Come on Sexy Zexy... I know you're listening.” The silver haired teen glanced up from his book, an exasperated sigh escaping his lips.

"What is it now Marluxia?" Zexion glared at Marluxia, closing his novel, and setting it down. The silver haired teen sat up slowly, tossing his legs over the side of his large bed.

“Well...uh... I was bored, and decided to see if you wanted to help me..." Marluxia replied eyeing the other teen. Zexion let out another exasperated sigh, slowly standing. He stretched out his arms, rolling his shoulders until he heard a CRACK! "Didn't that hurt?" Marluxia asked walking towards Zexion, a worried expression plastered on his face. Zexion simply shrugged facing his friend, his silver gaze meeting a pair of blue eyes.

"Marly, didn't you want me to help you?" His gaze fixated on the other man’s lips.

"Oh! That's right!" Marluxia exclaimed breaking the tension, "Yah...Do you want to help me water my plants?” Zexion finally gathered his thoughts.

“Huh?” Zexion said, finally coming out of his thoughts. “Oh, sure... I could return to my book, but I think I need some fresh air."

The duo turned and left Zexion's room, walking past various doors along the way. Each door had a different Roman number; some had personal touches as well. The two continued to walk in silence; time seemed to be passing by slowly.

"Hey guys!” A tall blonde shouted running towards the duo. “Sooo…" He trailed, "are you guys dating?" Both teens halted, frozen on the spot.

"What was that Demyx…?" Zexion asked, his hair covering his eyes, and an eerie shadow creeping across his face.

"Uhhh.... Are… y-you two... dating?" The blond asked nervously, taking several steps back.

"Yah!" Came Marluxia's reply, a large grin spreading across his face.

"WHAT!?" A flustered Zexion yelped. Marluxia pulled him closer, wrapping his arms around the shorter teen. Zexion's gaze dropped to his waist, a faint blush clawing at his cheeks. He slowly peered up, looking straight into the taller teen's eyes, his gaze dropping to those pink, velvet lips.

"That doesn't prove a thing!" Demyx whined with disbelief. Marluxia grinned deviously, glancing at the tall blond as he leaned over towards Zexion's ear.

"Don't worry." He purred, "Just play along, it'll get rid of him quick." Marluxia's breath ghosting over the younger teen's ear, he slowly pulled back. Not realizing what was happening, Zexion flung his arms around Marluxia's neck, and leaned in towards the older teen's face. A blush quickly clawed its way onto Marluxia's cheeks. He slowly leaned towards Zexion, closing his eyes. Their lips met, to them it seemed as though time itself had stopped. Zexion's hand had found its way into Marluxia's soft, silky hair. His fingers began twirling it. His hand moved towards the back of Marluxia's head, pulling him closer, deepening their kiss. His eyes flitted shut, a new feeling rushed over him. He wanted more, his body craving Marluxia, as they pulled apart. Both teens panting, pain shot through the spot where their heart once was. They both slowly raised their eyelids, and their gazes met.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Is that proof enough Demyx?" Marluxia teased, still trying to process what had happened. Zexion's mind was racing, trying to comprehend what just happened moments before. Did I just… no… I... I did. I kissed Marluxia in front of Demyx! Of all people it just had to be Him! What are these feelings rushing over me? How come as we pulled away I wanted more? I don't want him let me go...Wait a minute Zexion...! What are you saying? I'm not attracted to Marluxia.... Am I? That would explain these feelings, but wait... I don't have a heart, how can I feel? Zexion looked at Demyx, a small smile crawling across his face.
