Okay, I need to be happy, so here is a little fic from Demyx Month (inspired my 8/13 Akuroku Day!!))

There wasn’t much to be said about this one — Zexion liked to be away from people, usually doing some sort of puzzle or reading a book, and Demyx liked to be almost obnoxiously close to people, usually the ones who didn’t want company. It was only a matter of time before Demyx realized Zexion was exactly the sort of person he liked to hang around. Of course, one didn’t just make new friends without getting them to like you. So Demyx brought a gift to Zexion during one of their early encounters.

“Zexy! Look at this, I’ve made you something!” the Melodious Nocturne announced as he bounced into the room. Zexion glanced up from the crossword puzzle in front of him.

“What?”

“A present! Here.” He handed the other Nobody a slightly crinkled sheet of paper with a grin on his face.

Zexion took it curiously. It was a drawing of the two of them, done in crude colored pencil. “You.... drew me a picture?” He refrained from mentioning that a five-year-old could probably do better.

“Yep! Naminé helped, but I did most of it.” Demyx pointed to the page. “See, here’s me.... and that’s you. Look, you’re smiling.” He stared pointedly at the Cloaked Schemer.

“It’s lovely, Demyx. Thank you.”

“How about we tape it up here?” Demyx beamed, grabbing the sheet back. “So you can see it every day?”

“You don’t have to, Demyx....”

“But I will! Here, let me go find some tape. Be right back.” He set the portrait down beside Zexion’s puzzle book and raced out of the room.

Zexion glanced down at the drawing, and smiled.
