You weren't out long before the door behind you opened again. You took a quick step forward so it wouldn't hit you.
"[Name]?" Demyx asked. His face lit up with a wide grin when he saw you. Yours eyes traced his figure. He was wearing a pair of dark jeans, a plain shirt, and a coat over it.
"Hey Demyx", You replied as you tightened the jacket around your frame, "What are you doing?"
"Looking for the birthday girl of course!” He offered you to take him arm, "Wanna take a walk?"
You chuckled and shook your head, "Sure. It's not my birthday though."
You linked your arm through his and he led you down the alley towards where Namine and Gabe had gone. "I still can't believe you didn't tell anyone though!" Demyx cried.
You laughed at his distraught face, "It wasn't that big of a deal."
He shook his head, "Of course it is! We’re your friends! Besides….” He mumbled the last part, “I feel like a jerk for not knowing.”
"When's your birthday Demyx?" You asked. Now that you thought about it, you didn't know any of their birthdays. It kind of made you feel like an awful friend.
"September 9th." He replied with a smile.
You frowned, "Aw I didn't know! I never even said happy birthday or anything."
He gave you a smile, "Don’t worry. I never told you."
Demyx continued to lead the way. The two of you had made it out of the alleyway and around the building. Just down the street, in the direction you were going, was a small little park filled with people. Yo and Demyx walked through the black iron entrance and brightly lit part of the park. The two of you continued down some paths until you found a small group of stone tables separated from everything else. The area was lit only by moonlight and the view was spectacular. The park was on a slight hill so the tables were seated at an angle where you could see some of the city's outline.
You sat down on top of the table, letting your feet sit on the stone bench part.
"This reminds me of the Summer Fair. Just the two of us, sitting by the tables looking over all the lights." You commented with a smile. It was then you realized that's all this city was basically. Just a bunch of lights and entertainment hobbies. "I still can't believe he destroyed my necklace", You murmured thinking back on the necklace Xemnas destroyed.
"Yeah", Demyx sat beside you, "Ha this is kinda funny then."
"What?" You asked not understanding his words.
Demyx smiled and reached into his coat pocket to pull out a small white bag. On the front of the bag read, 'Passim Jewelers'. Your mouth fell open slightly and you hit him in the arm lightly. "Merry Christmas [Name]."
You tried to frown but couldn't, "Demyx we all agreed not to buy each other Christmas gifts! I didn't get you anything..."
Demyx laughed, "That’s ok! Besides if it makes you feel better you can consider this a late birthday gift."
You smiled and hugged him from the side. He kissed the top of your head and opened the bag. He pulled out a white gold chain necklace but what really caught your eye was the small charm dangling from it. It was the small glowing green marble you had gotten at the candy shop. The healing one.
"I thought I lost that this morning." You mumbled as you reached forward and brushed your fingers against the necklace.
"Yeah I begged Gabe to sneak in and steal it this morning while you were getting ready." Demyx explained with a proud smile on his face.
"That's why Gabe was acting weird this morning." You chuckled, "Demyx it's gorgeous."
He smiled and reached forward to clip it around your neck. He shrugged and gave you a sheepish grin, "I know it's not like the other one, but I figure it would be good for now."
"It's perfect." You replied. "I feel bad I didn't get anything for you though."
Demyx leaned back on his hands casually, "Don't worry. As long as you like it.”
You smirked, "I do. A lot.”
You leaned towards him to set a small kiss on his lips. He was surprised at first but instantly returned the kiss. He set his hand on your face pulling you closer.
After a moment of passionate kisses he pulled back slowly but left his forehead rest on yours.
"I love you [Name]." He murmured as his hand traced a small circle on the back of your neck. You leaned forward and pecked him one last time on the lips in response.
"We should start heading back." You said as you stood up and stepped off the bench. You gave him a smile as your hand brushed the new jewelry hanging around your neck.
Demyx had a small frown on his face that you weren't sure where it came from. You frowned as well when he sighed and stood up. “Yeah ok." He mumbled quietly.
Demyx began to walk down the path you came up on. You followed silently, but after a moment you slid your hand into his. He glanced up at you and forced a smile. The two of you walked all the way to the front of the park where it was densely populated and brightly lit.
"Hang on." Demyx pulled you to a stop, "I need to throw this away."
Demyx motioned for the white bag still in his pocket. He let go of your hand and walked towards a trash can in the distance. You watched him walk all the way over and toss it in. When he turned around though he was swarmed by little kids who began to ask him questions. A smile graced your lips as you watched him grin and answer them happily.
"Hey baby." A deep voice greeted from behind you.
You spun around and your eyes involuntarily widened. A man with dyed blue hair, you could see his blonde roots, and neon purple eyes stood smirking at you. "You come here often?"
You frowned and shook your head. You took a step back but he grabbed your wrist.
"No don't leave baby." He said then his devious smile grew, "Why don't you come back to my place? I bet we could have a lot of fun."
You shook your head, "No thanks please let go."
He let go and sighed, "Oh. Ok. I figured I'd try. I should've known a girl like you would never say yes to me."
You watched him began to frown as he stuffed his hands in his pockets. "Sorry about that. I just figured maybe I'd give it a shot or something." He mumbled.
"Look maybe-" You reached forward to set a hand on his shoulder reassuringly. So you could tell him to ask someone else in a less creepy manner, but Demyx's hand shot forward and snatched your hand out of the air.
"Leave her alone.” He growled and pulled you behind him. The man didn't waste any time in turning around and running away. Demyx turned around to you with a frown. "Are you ok?" He asked in a firm voice.
"Well- I- Well-Yes. I'm fine but Demyx you were being really... well mean." You said with an upset tone. The man had apologized after all.
Demyx's frown deepened and his eyes widened in shock, "What?"
You hadn't seen Demyx so upset with you before and it put you on edge. You took a half a step back and shook your head.
"It's just-" You bit your lip, "He was apologizing. You didn't have to-"
"Come on [Name], even I knew it was trick!” Demyx yelled at you.
"What is your problem Demyx?!" You cried letting your anger build up. "I mean tonight has been amazing! Why are you ruining it for me?!"
"I'm ruining it?! You've already done that though!" He argued.
Your eyes widened with his comment. Demyx frowned and tore his gaze away from you. "I didn't mean it like that. I’m sorry. " Demyx sighed.
"It sure sounded like you did." You mumbled with hurt laced through your voice.
"It just makes me so mad to see all these guys hitting on you", Demyx lifted his sad gaze back up at you, "And you never do a anything about it. You just encourage them."
"I do not!" You argued.
"All you do is stand there and blush [Name]. That only makes them wanna flirt more." He replied with a shake of his head. Demyx ran a hand through his hair frustratingly. You crossed your arms across your chest and looked away from Demyx.
"I try it's just- I'm-" You stumbled across your words.
"Whatever [Name]. Let’s just forget it. The night already didn't end like I wanted it to." Demyx mumbled the last part to himself. He started to walk away.
"No." You said sternly as you found your voice, "I don't want to forget it. What ruined this night for you?! Because until now I thought it was perfect."
Demyx stopped and turned back to look at you. He opened his mouth but closed it again quickly. Finally after a moment he stepped up towards you so he was only a few inches away from you. Demyx set both his hands on your face and pulled you into a kiss. This time it was different though. It was rougher and filled with desperation. He pulled away after a short moment.
"[Name] I love you." He whispered sending his sweet warm reach across your lips. You remained still, unsure of what he was doing. "Do you love me?"
You opened your mouth but didn't say anything. Why did you find yourself speechless? You would do anything for Demyx, that you were sure of.
"I- I-", You stuttered. You swallowed and continued nervously, "I really like you Demyx. A lot. More than anybody else I know."
Demyx dropped his hands and his face remained the same. He stuffed his hands in his pocket and you could tell by his expression that the answer you gave him was not the one he was looking for.
"I like the ocean. I like it more than any other body of water really." Demyx spoke aloud with an even tone, "That doesn't mean I love it though."
You reached forward to touch his arm, "Demyx I..."
He moved so your fingers wouldn't graze him at all. It was painfully silent between the two of you, despite the park's loud chatter from everyone else. Demyx finally sighed and started to walk away, but not in the direction the club was in.
"Demyx where are you going?" You questioned as you started to follow him. He shot you a sad glance and shook his head.
"I just need to think some." He mumbled and walked away.
You slowly watched as his figure grew smaller until it was completely out of view. Your hands clenched into fists and you could feel small tears building up at the corner of your eyes. You were positive that nobody around you could hear your shattering heart above the park's noise.
'Why couldn't I just say it?' You questioned yourself, 'Why couldn't I just say that I...'
As much as you wanted to chase after him you didn't want to make him anymore mad than he already was. You turned and began to walk out if the park. Snow was still falling and you had that hollow feeling in you. It reminded you of Hanna's funeral. How lost you felt. Except this time Demyx wasn't here to comfort you. As you walked out of the park you noticed Namine being led away by two men in white suits. You looked around for Gabe but he was nowhere to be seen.
"Namine!" You yelled but none of them turned around.
You honestly didn't even bother questioning your motives as you quickly ran forward to follow the men and Namine.
