winter wonderland;

[This evening, Riku is wandering through the library for a reason that has nothing to do with books. He's holding a plate of freshly baked and very nice-smelling cookies, and is headed for a certain corner with a fireplace. The singing coming from there is what makes him break into a wide smile though.]

...wtf, where did that "not" come from. the smile HAS evolved into a grin.

[sunrisingly.livejournal.com]

Good idea... I'll have to go find some roses later.

[Pretends to look thoughtful.]

Might be hard to top the grand piano gift though.

/didn't notice

[whispery-song.livejournal.com]

I'm sure you'll figure something out.

[sunrisingly.livejournal.com]

Well, when I do, you'll be the first to know.

[Now it's his turn to give a kiss on the cheek.]

[whispery-song.livejournal.com]

Oh? But what about this girl you're asking to the Christmas Ball?

[sunrisingly.livejournal.com]

Well, I'll need a girl to run it by first. Make sure it's something she'd like.

[whispery-song.livejournal.com]

Oh, right. Good idea.

[sunrisingly.livejournal.com]

So, are you planning to take someone?

[whispery-song.livejournal.com]

I was thinking about it. But I'm kind of waiting for this boy to ask me.

[sunrisingly.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah? Got a crush on someone, huh?

[whispery-song.livejournal.com]

Actually...

[She turns towards him, taking the cookie tray and setting it aside before pushing him down gently to straddle over top of him. She grins as she says-]

I'm sort of in love with him.

[sunrisingly.livejournal.com]

[He's smiling warmly again, staring up at her.]

Sounds like one lucky guy.

[whispery-song.livejournal.com]

I think I'm the lucky one here.

[She leans down to gently press a kiss to his lips, her free hand moving to brush his hair away.]

[sunrisingly.livejournal.com]

[He just sighs into the kiss, expression shifting to one of content.]

Think again.

[whispery-song.livejournal.com]

[Pressing her head against his, she settles down comfortably.]

I love you.

[sunrisingly.livejournal.com]

Love you too.

[He closes his eyes, quiet for a time, and eyebrows pulled together in thought.]

[whispery-song.livejournal.com]

[She opens her's to watch him for a bit.]

Something wrong?

[sunrisingly.livejournal.com]

Mn. Just dwelling on things.

[A pause.]

Lately I feel more and more like the damsel in distress.

[whispery-song.livejournal.com]

Don't.

[She shakes her head and leans down to cuddle against him.]

We all get into trouble around here.

[sunrisingly.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I know. I just feel kind of ridiculous sometimes.

[He reaches his arms around her, clasping his hands together loosely.]

But I guess it's better it be me than you, so that's good.

[whispery-song.livejournal.com]

[She just sighs, resting her head against his chest.]

You're not alone... look at the other you, and Roxas, and Kai... they all get in just as much trouble if not more than you do.

[sunrisingly.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I think Roxas has me beat.

[A small smile, and then it's replaced by a thoughtful look.]

You know, I'm always the one piling my doubts on you. And you're always the one to reassure me. I think I'm going to have to repay you in more than cookies.

[whispery-song.livejournal.com]

And how do you plan on doing that?

[sunrisingly.livejournal.com]

Oh, I don't know. Girls like flowers, right?

[Have a teasing smile.]

[whispery-song.livejournal.com]

Of course. But that's a bit generic.

[sunrisingly.livejournal.com]

Good point. Chocolate? Or is that too generic too?
