Never Gonna Give…Sorry, Wrong Song.


"I don't want another pretty face, I don't want just anyone to hold, I don't want my love to…uhhh…" Ven couldn't do it; Aqua was looking down from her window right at him, and one of her eyebrows was arched in supreme confusion. What was he even thinking, what could have possibly possessed him to stand underneath Aqua's window and sing a sappy love song to her?

"Ven!" Terra loudly whispered to him from behind some convenient bushes. "Keep at it, you're doing great!"

Oh, right. Terra had possessed him to do this. Well, not actual possession, he just managed to convince him that this was the best way for him to express his feelings to their mutual friend. And he was hiding, just out of sight, making sure that he wouldn't run before the deed was done; Terra called it the duty of the Big Brother, to be there for the Little Brother. Ven had a very different opinion of the matter.

"You don't want your love to…what?" Aqua said with a giggle, and Ven felt even smaller than he usually did. His face was burning red, and he felt his knees getting all wobbly and weak. This plan, which was obviously terrible to begin with, was crashing and burning all around him.

"…I don't want my love to go to waste, I want you and your beautiful soul!" And yet, somehow, there was that tiny part of his heart that urged him onward, and who was he to say no to his own heart?
