This is he first chapter to a one-shot book type thing that I created with a friend. I took quotes and turned them into stories. Well enjoy
“How was I supposed to know it was flammable?”
Demyx couldn’t believe the red headed man standing in front of him. He was angry at the pyro, for when he’d entered the room he discovered his clothes. Or, what he assumed was his clothes, now a burnt mess on the floor.
“What did you do Axel?” Demyx questioned.
“Well, I saw you wearing this cute outfit like a month ago and I hadn’t seen you wear it since… I just wanted to see if you still had it…” His words drifted off and Demyx thought he could see a slight blush rising in his cheeks.
“So you decided to burn all the clothes I own that I wasn’t wearing?”
“It wasn’t on purpose.”
“Care to explain?”
“Well…I…um…”
“Can you be a little clearer?”
“Uh…no?”
“Axel if you don’t tell me right now I’m going to do something bad to fluffy,” Demyx warned.
“No don’t hurt Fluffy!”
“Then tell me.”
“But… I can’t.”
“Why is that?”
“Cause… you wouldn’t talk to me anymore,” Axel told him quietly.
“That’s not true. You pester me all the time and I still talk to you.”
“Well this is different.”
“How so?”
“It just is!”
“Will you please just tell me what happened?”
“Fine! I was angry and jealous.”
“Why?”
Axel turned and walked into Demyx’s closet and pulled out a shiny blue box. Demyx’s eyes widened as he realized what Axel had been holding.
“Did you seriously read it?”
“Read what?”
“Uh… never mind. What did you see then?”
“This,” Axel said, pointing to a picture.
“What about it?”
“It’s you and your FREAKING GIRLFRIEND!!!”
“Huh?”
“You have a FREAKING GIRLFRIEND!!!”
“What are you talking about?”
“The chick you have your arm around in the freaking picture!” Axel sighed, looking back in the box. “See?”
“Ew! That’s my SISTER!”
“Oh. So you don’t have a girlfriend then…?”
“No… Why would it matter?”
“It wouldn’t.”
“Then why are you freaking out on me?”
“I’m not!” His face was turning red, not a good combination with his hair.”
“Then why are you yelling?”
“Cause I can!”
“Fine. Do what you want,” Demyx sighed, leaning against the wall. Axel’s face dropped.
“Did you want it to matter for a reason?”
“Well… maybe. I dunno. It’s just I feel like I’m useless here and everyone picks on me although you and Roxas are my friends, and you’re usually playing jokes on me which I don’t mind since you’re always around more and you’re really hot and I just think that… Wait…” Demyx paused his rant, realizing what he’d just said.
Axel’s face broke out in a grin. “Something you want to tell me Demyx?”
“Uh…no?”
“Are you sure, Demyx?”
“Um…well…no?”
“Really? Cause I thought you said something about me being hot, which is a horrible pun but I don’t think that’s how you meant it.”
“Well I didn’t mean to say that out loud, it just slipped, me and my big mouth, well that comes in handy sometimes so the other members leave me alone, like last time I was bothering Zexion in the library and he glared at me until I left…” Demyx continued to mumble.
“Is that all it comes in handy for? Axel winked at him.
“Uh…” Demyx said blushing furiously. Axel walked over to him, putting one hand over Demyx’s shoulder against the wall.
“So you really think I’m hot?”
“I… well um… maybe?”
“Straight answer.”
“I don’t think that’s possible.”
“And why’s that?”
Demyx looked down at his feet. “Cause I’m not straight.”
“Good,” Axel said his expression relaxing.
“What?” Demyx asked alarmed, and looked at the pyro.
Axel ran a hand down the side of Demyx’s face. “You think you’re the only one?” Demyx couldn’t help but shudder from the contact.
“I…dunno what to say.”
“You don’t have to,” Axel said leaning in closer. Demyx turned a darker shade of red that almost matched the hair of the man in front of him. Axel smirked at him, enjoying the power he now knew he possessed.
“Do you want me to back off?”
Demyx looked down at his feet again and shook his head.
“Good,” Axel whispered. He lifted Demyx’s head softly and kissed the corner of his mouth. Demyx’s breath escaped in short gasps as soon as he pulled away. Axel placed his arms over the shorter man’s head, effectively pinning him to the wall. “So what all is your big mouth really good for?”
“Wouldn’t you like to know?” Demyx whispered, unsure if the other man could hear him.
“Yeah, actually I would,” Axel whispered back. “If it would be easier you could just show me…”
“I’d rather not… at the moment. But I’ll give you a hint. I don’t have a gag reflex.”
“Another time then, I’ll be waiting,” Axel turned his back on him, walking slowly to the door.
“Wait,” Demyx called, causing Axel to stop. Demyx walked over to him and pushed him against the wall. He pressed his lips against Axel’s, surprising the red head. After the shock, Axel kissed back with more force and wrapped his arms around Demyx’s waist making him shiver. Demyx soon pulled away and blushed.
“I’m sorry. I don’t know what came over me,” Demyx said softly.
Axel smiled slightly. “There’s nothing to apologize for,” he said. “However, if you press me up against a wall like that again I will refuse to take responsibility for my actions.”
“Really?” I’ll have to test that theory sometime,” Demyx said leaning closer to Axel.
“Demyx, if you don’t back off I’m seriously going to stop holding myself back.”
“Well maybe that’s exactly what I want you to do.” Demyx said with a smirk.
“That’s obviously not true.”
“Oh, and what makes you think that?”
“Because, if it were true I wouldn’t still be standing here.”
“You think you’re so smart don’t you?” He said inching closer.
“Seriously Demyx…”
“Hmm?”
“You have no idea what you’re doing to my self control right now do you?”
“I dunno, possibly.”
Axel pushed Demyx’s shoulder and slipped out from between him and the wall. Not thinking, he walked over and sat on the bed. Demyx turned around and looked at Axel.
“Axel?” He said, raising an eyebrow in question.
“I can’t control myself when I’m that close to you.”
“What happened to the confident, cocky, pyro that had no problem with controlling himself?” Demyx smirked, slowly walking closer.
“You. But I’m perfectly confident. I know you would enjoy what I could do to you. However, I’m pretty sure you’d rather wait a little for that.” He paused for a breath. “But yeah, you’re doing wonders with my self control.”
“Well that’s the first time I’ve heard that.” Demyx paused as he stood in front of Axel. Slowly he sat down on Axel’s lap straddling him. Demyx leaned forward next to Axel’s ear and whispered, “You’re not the only one who has been having trouble with their self control. I’ve been struggling for quite a while now. It’s been hard to bottle in everything that I’ve been feeling for so long.”
“Demyx…” Axel sighed, trying to keep his breathing even.
“Axel…” Demyx mocked.
Axel leaned back on his hand, watching the man on his lap. Demyx really was destroying his self control and he didn’t want to act too soon. Demyx leaned back to give Axel his space. He was a little worried that he was talking things too fast too quickly. He was about to apologize again when he began to fall backward. He landed on the floor with a thud.
“Ouch,” Demyx whimpered.
Axel sat up quickly. “Are you okay?” he asked.
“Just peachy.”
“Then why are you on the floor?”
“Cause I like the floor.”
“Really? Cause it seemed like you were really enjoying the bed a second ago.”
“Well technically I was on your lap, which I enjoyed. But I like the view from down here.”
“If you really wanted to see that bad you could’ve just asked.”
“Well I don’t like asking.”
“Why’s that?”
“For one, who really asks that? That and I’d feel awkward.”
“Well, you shouldn’t feel awkward, no matter what you’re saying. Regardless of what you may think, I don’t just like you for you body.”
“I dunno why you’d like me for that anyway. What is the reason anyway?”
“Too many to count. Or list.”
“Wow that’s a first. Wait… you can count?”
“At least to eight… Most days…” Axel joked back with him. Demyx giggled.
“Well that’s better than Roxas. He can only count to three.”
“You know, that matches his age pretty well too.”
“Very true.” Demyx paused. “Oh my God! I forgot I was baking cookies!”
“Why were you baking cookies?”
“Well… I kinda wanted to make you some, but they kinda burnt so I actually got Xigbar to make them. That pirate sure can bake.”
“Umm… yeah….”
“Wait right here.” Demyx commanded and ran off down the hall. Axel let himself fall back on the bed, resting his head on his arms. Demyx ran back in the room shortly after with a big grin on his face.
“Here,” he said handing Axel a cookie.
Axel sat up just enough to take the cookie and take a bite out of it before lying back down. “This is really good!” he said.
“Good I was hoping you would like it.”
“Well, I definitely do,” Axel said after finishing the cookie. He rested his hand on Demyx’s neck and pulled him in for a kiss. “Thanks.”
“You’re welcome,” Demyx whispered.
“Was that a good enough thank you?”
“Definitely better than the times before.”
“You’re still really far away…”
“What happened to you not wanting to be close?”
“You made me cookies.”
“I’m going to have to do that more often then.”
“I’m rather fond of ice cream sundaes too… but they can get kinda messy…”
“I’ll have to keep that in mind.” Demyx smirked.
“Aww… so I don’t get to experience your lack of a gag reflex today?”
“Well not right now… I dunno about later,” He winked.
“Crap Demyx, you can’t do that…”
“Do what?”
“Tease me like that. Now you’ve got my hopes up.”
“But I like to tease… its fun.”
“Well, I guess I don’t mind if you tease… As long as you follow through.”
“I guess you’ll find out later then.”
Axel grabbed his shoulders, pulling him in for another kiss. “I’d rather find out now.”
“I bet, but I don’t think your want everyone in the castle to hear you.”
“Oh, you think you’re so good, don’t you?” Axel said, kissing him again.
“Well they don’t call me the Melodious Nocturne for nothing.”
“And I’m the Flurry of Dancing Flames, which one do you think would heat you up more?”
“That may be true but you do remember what my element is, right?”
“What’s your point?” Axel asked, sneaking another kiss.
“I have more experience at that type of thing.”
“And here I thought you would be the innocent one…”
“Well you thought wrong now didn’t you?”
“We could change that.”
“Oh really? I don’t think that’s possible.”
“Why’s that?”
“I’m corrupted beyond repair; I don’t think you could change that.”
“I could go just as far as you though.”
“That may be true but I still think I’m more experienced.”
“My dreams of you say otherwise.”
“Are you admitting you have those type of dreams about me?”
“Was there any doubt?”
“Well I didn’t really think about it, but it doesn’t surprise me.”
“I guess I’ve thought about us more then.”
“I honestly didn’t think you liked me… well actually guys at all.”
“Surprise, I’m bi!”
“Would’ve never guessed.”
“Guess it doesn’t really matter now though.”
“Really now? Why is that?”
“Cause I just have to be gay to get you,” Axel said quietly.
“So you actually want me then?”
“Of course I do… why else would I be here?”
“Well you could have been joking around for all I know and I wanted to make sure.”
Axel lifted his chin to look in his eyes. “Yes, Demyx. I want you.”
“I want you too.” Demyx said softly. “And yeah I’ve got it memorized.”
