The Demyx Continuum: Drowning the Rose (Book 2 of 5?)

Chapter 7: Trapped Forever in the Shadows

Axel brought Demyx to his room, since he figured that Demyx didn't want to sleep alone. There was a soft knock on the door just as Axel was setting Demyx down on his bed.

"One moment." Axel replied. "Dem, you could sleep here for the night."

"No...I want to sleep in our room." Demyx replied as he was bringing on a fresh set of tears.

"I don't think so...you could have his weapon in the bed with you if it makes you feel like he's still here." Axel replied as he went over to the door.

" Hi...Dimitri...what brings you over here?"

"I heard yelling...is he all right?" Dimitri spotted Demyx crying with some sort of weapon with him.

"No."

"What's wrong?"

Axel whispered what happened in Dimitri's ear.

"You're serious?"

"Yes, it happened just moments ago."

"You better take that weapon away from him, before he gets any ideas."

"I can't...it was his weapon. He'll have that weapon up until he gets over him."

"Oh...the killer...what connection did he had with him?"

"He was his ex...they had been arguing a lot recently. Since they saw each other when he took Demyx to that one restaurant."

"And which restaurant is that?"

"The one near the gay club...may be a few blocks towards your place."

"'Deep Woods Oasis'?"

"Yeah. That's the one. He works there as server."

"I know a lot of servers there...which one is he?"

"The one that acts nice all of the time... but he's big jerk and he sucks at lying." Demyx sniffed. " He's the one that looks cute, but not so much."

"Dem, how are you feeli...?"

"You have to ask...I just saw my boyfriend get beaten to death by a real jerk...how do you think I feel?"

"Demy..."

"Don't call me that...only he calls me that." Demyx stared at Axel in pain.

"I'm sorry, Dem, I forgot..."

"Already? He just...and you forgot already?" Demyx's voice was climbing.

"Dem, please, be quiet... people are still sleeping."

"I don't care." Demyx gripped his boyfriends weapon tighter.

Dimitri left in a hurry...he didn't want to be caught here at this time.

"Please, Demyx, I don't want people to wake up to you."

"I don't care if they wake up or not because of me...I want to be with him." The hall lights turned on and there were footsteps.

"I know you do...it wasn't right of his ex to do that to you. I know."

"No you don't, you're just saying that so I could be quiet. You know nothing about how I feel right now. So don't even try to sympathize that you do...because you don't." Demyx started crying again, as he yelled some more. There was a knock on the door.

"Go away!" Demyx yelled.

"Dem, this is not your room." Axel told him as he went to the door. The person at the door was Luxord.
