Chocolate for Nikki
"Man, I hope Nikki likes this. It cost me a fucking arm and a leg to get this, and I've been out here for a fucking hour," Max mumbled to himself, walking through the forest with the goal of seeking out his green haired crush with a box of chocolates in his hand. Max was normally not one for clichés, but he had heard from Nerris that Nikki had a thing for chocolate, so it seemed to make sense to get her some chocolates. The problem was that Max had no idea where Nikki was. He went to Nikki and Nerris' tent to look for her, but Nerris had told him that she left.
As Max continued his trek through the woods, he heard some leaves rustling. He looked around briefly, but concluded that it was just a bit of wind. He continued walking, but he heard the rustling again, along with some speedy footsteps. Max looked around, even looking behind the bushes. But since he was bent down face first in a thick bush, he wasn't able to see what was right behind him…
…
…
…Nikki jumping out of a tree, and grabbing Max by the back.
"GIVE ME THAT CHOCOLATE!" Nikki shrieked, maintaining her balance and grip as Max was running around, trying to shake her off of her.
"JESUS CHRIST!" Max screamed as he was running back from where he came. "NIKKI, GET THE FUCK OFF OF ME!" Max screamed again before he tripped on a rock, and fell face first into the ground with the box of chocolates falling a few feet in front of him. When Nikki saw the chocolates fall away from Max, she jumped off of Max, rocketed to the chocolates, ripped the box open, and started devouring all the chocolates.
"Shame on you Max! Hoarding all this delicious chocolate for yourself without sharing with me!" Nikki exclaimed, her mouth full of half chewed chocolates. Max pinched the bridge of his nose before walking to Nikki.
"Nikki, I got those chocolates for you. In fact, I was out in these woods trying to find you so I can give these to you," Max said, with a deadpanned expression to match the tone in his voice. Nikki looked at Max with her puppy dog eyes, which caused Max's heart to do an entire gymnastics routine. She swallowed the abundance of chocolate in her mouth before giving Max a hug.
"That's so sweet of you Max," Nikki said, while having her face buried in Max's hoodie. Max, not knowing how to react, started petting Nikki's head.
"Not bad for a first try at being sweet, huh?" Max asked with a smirk on her face. Nikki looked up at Max and nodded. "Maybe you can give me some more chances to practice my sweetness?" Max asked, leaving Nikki's mouth agape with sparkles in her eyes.
"Are you asking me what I think you're asking me?" Nikki nearly whispered, too shocked to increase the volume of her voice.
"Yeah…Nikki…will you by my…girlfriend?" Max asked, looking down at his feet with a blush completely covering his face. Nikki jumped into his arms, and gave him a kiss on the cheek.
"Yes I will!" Nikki proudly exclaimed, giving Max a flurry of additional kisses on the cheek and forehead. Max laughed at the kiss attack, and gave Nikki a flurry of kisses back on the cheek. Nikki got down from Max's arms, and started eating the chocolates again. Max shook his head with a smile on his face, and sat next to Nikki with his arm around her neck. Nikki felt Max's arm, looked at him, and smiled at him with her teeth and mouth covered in chocolate.
"I love you Max," Nikki cooed before she went back to eating the chocolate.
"I love you too Nikki," Max responded, scratching the top of Nikki's head while she was finishing off the last of the chocolate in the box.
