Demyx came in from the storm, a few days later, and went into his room to rest but he finds a letter on his bed.
"What is this? No return name or anything? I wonder who sent me it." Demyx said to himself. He didn't recognize the handwriting at all. The letter read:

Dear Melodious Nocturne,
I hope this letter finds you well. I've been having trouble writing this. I actually don't know just what to say. So, its hard for me to say this. Though ever since I saw you, you took my breath away and took it with you. I can't stop thinking about you. Luckily, I was able to talk to a fellow member of yours on getting this name. However, that was all the told me. I'm so very grateful that they even gave me A picture of you. I hope we meet soon.
Love with all my heart,
Your secret Lover

"Awe, how sweet." Demyx said, quietly to himself.
"What's that?" Xigbar's voice asked.
Demyx turned towards the door and saw Xigbar at the door. "Did you write this?"
"Did I write what?"
"This letter. Did you write this letter?"
"No. You told everyone that you didn't want love letters from us. Is it a handwriting you recognize?"
"No. I don't recognize whose handwriting this is. Who gave them a picture of me?"
Xigbar looked confused.
"It says right here: I'm so very grateful that they even gave me a picture of you."
" I certainly didn't give them a picture of you. I don't know sent that letter to you, Demyx, but whoever it is; is probably messing with you." Xigbar said then he left.
Demyx didn't even think twice about why Xigbar was there at all. Demyx falls back into his bed and reread the letter repeatedly until he eventually he halls asleep.

Meanwhile on travelers Town, a girl known as Roxanne was writing another letter to Demyx. This time when she finished her letter, she placed a duplicated photo of herself into the envelope with the letter and closed it up. She hesitated then placed another letter, that she had written as a backup, in the mail box.

Demyx woke up with the letter on the floor and Marluxia was standing over him.
"Had a nice nap?" Marluxia asked him.
"What do you want Marluxia?" Demyx asked, not wanting to continue this Déjà vu moment he had with Marluxia.
"Who's your secret lover?" Marluxia asked, as he bent down to pick up the letter.
"I don't know." Demyx answered, bored. " it doesn't have a return address or name, so I can't write back to find out." He added. "What do you want?" He repeated.
"Have you seen Axel anywhere?" Marluxia asked. "I need to speak with him."
"No. I haven't. I just woke up, as you noticed. Now unless you have information about who wrote the letter, I suggest you le—" Demyx didn't finish his sentence, when Xemnas came in.
"Oh, hi boys." Xemnas greeted, when he saw Marluxia in the room too.
"Hi, Superior." Both of them greeted at the same time. "Have you seen Axel?" Marluxia asked.
"Yes, he's on his way to do a mission." Xemnas answered. " this came in the mail for you, Demyx." Xemnas added, as he handed Demyx an envelope.
Demyx took it in confusion.
"Is there anything for me, superior?" Marluxia asked.
"No. There is not." Xemnas then walked out, Marluxia followed close on his heels.
"Another one? Who could it be?" Demyx asked himself as he opened up the envelope. " I bet it's Xemnas, since he was the one who handed it to me." He added as he unfolded the letter and started to read it.

Dear Melodious Nocturne,
I would like to know the name you go by besides this one. Anyway, if you're ever sent this way...I mean sent to Travelers Town. I'll be waiting to meet you. I have a few friends who don't even know why I even love you. Though, they like me for who I am. That is how friends are, right? They don't care how you act and react around them and they have their own opinions. Friends always love to hear opinions on things that they do or do not have in common. What am I doing? I can't believe I'm talking like this... hope to meet you soon.
Love with all my heart,
Your Secret Lover
