Hey guys, I decided to do a little 100 Themes Challenge for when I have writers block on my stories. It's from deviantART, ~darknessversuslight to be exact. Let's see how many long years this takes me, and if I even finish it. I'll try to do it in order but I doubt it'll end up that way. X3 Each one will be about different characters, sometimes a couple, sometimes just friendship, sometimes neither. Some will be really short, like this one, and some will be long.

A gust of cold wind hit five-year-old Craig as he sat in the center of the living room with his teddy bear, various action figures, and a rather tortured looking doll with hair missing that had once belonged to his baby sister laid out in front of him. He shivered lightly and looked towards the door with a glare and a rude hand gesture that a five-year-old surely had no business performing. His mother stood in front of it, and he could just see a woman with dark hair standing on the other side. As Mrs. Tucker moved aside to allow the woman in from the cold, he realised that a small boy with shy eyes had a hold of her hand.
"This is my son, Craig," said his mother fondly, motioning towards him as she closed the door behind them. "Craig, sweetie, this is Mrs. Donovan and her son, Clyde. They've just moved in down the street and I invited them over for dinner to welcome them. You pay nicely with Clyde while I finish up, alright?"
Craig said nothing, simply stared at them boredly. His mother retreaded towards the kitchen, beckoning for Mrs. Donovan to follow. She did, but not before prying Clyde's hand from hers, kissing him on the head, and saying softly, "Say hello."
And then they were alone. Craig, slightly angry at having his play intruded by a random boy who looked like a right pussy, and Clyde, terribly nervous and intimidated. After a moment, Craig decide the boy wasn't going to do anything, and resumed his game. The ugly giantess and the great bear face off in the city, destroying it's buildings, and the only ones who can stop them are the brave-
"U-um..."
Craig looked up angrily and promptly flashing his middle finger at him. Clyde made an "ah" sound, and looked as if he might cry. Craig's expression softened slightly and he almost regretted the gesture. Almost. He looked at the boy expectantly, silently urging him to continue what he was saying. He seemed to finally take the hint and opened his mouth a tiny but and a single word escaped it.
"H-hi."
