Disclaimer: Nope. But, I'm currently working on a deal with my pal, Lemony.
A/N: Klaus and an as-of-now unnamed OC share a moment in the Baudelaire sitting room. (Anyone up to naming her?)
He is the silent one- always quiet, always calm.
She is the loud one- attention-grabbing, thunderous.
She laughs. Her long, dark hair falls over her eyes; her sparkling eyes that always have that subtle glint of mischief. She is irrepressible. She is the trouble-maker, the voice of insolence.
He pushes his glasses up the bridge of his nose, squinting at the words on the pages. His observant eyes flick over her every other minute. He is the thinker, the voice of reason.
They are a strange pair, but both very similar to the other. They are always thinking, always willing to learn.
She stands up from her chair across the sitting room. He watches her dance around on her tiptoes. She casts flirtatious glances at him, her ever-shimmering eyes begging him to join her. He bashfully shakes his head and returns to his book. . He does not like to admit it, but he enjoys watching her.
She pounces on him, tickling his sides, laughing like a small child. Blushing furiously, he tries to push her away. They fall to the floor, giggling.
Silently, she removes his glasses and the pair stares at each other for what seems to be hours- green eyes to brown eyes.
Her dark hair falls from her shoulders again as she lands on top of him. Her impish grin slowly disappears from her face as he gently reaches up to push it back. He swallows hard, waiting for her full reaction.
She stiffens, suddenly scared, and her face tells him so. He nods quietly, glancing away.
"No," she says with a small, nervous smile and leans down to press her lips against his.
She rolls over so she is at his side and takes his hand. He turns his face and whispers three small words in her ear.
She continues to give him coy looks as she dances. He continues to watch her. They never speak of the occasion again, but neither will forget that blissful morning.
A/N: So, there you have it- my first Lemony Snicket fanfiction. I'm pretty much experimenting with different writing styles as well. So, please tell me what you think! Good, constructive reviews are appreciated!
