Summary: AU Season 2. A tribute to the the most festive and beautiful colour! ;-) This was a GuyxMarian Secret Santa gift to the dear and wonderful Gizzysgirl!
RED
Marian sneaked around Locksley one night when curiosity got the better of her, but she was not prepared to be caught by Guy in the shadows outside so soon, and dragged into the bedroom.
"Really, Marian – parading around the countryside at night in a red riding habit," he snickered evilly. "You must know that some big bad wolf would catch you."
"Yes."
"Yes!?"
"Yes. That is why I put on my red riding hood. Because I have to know..."
"What?"
"Why..."
"Yes?"
"Why are your eyes so big, oh bad wolf?"
"Why? That is because I need to look at you – closely."
"But why are your nose so big, bad wolf?"
"I like your scent in my nostrils, little red riding hood..."
"But why are your ears so big, bad wolf?"
"So I can hear you squeak..."
"When?"
"When my big, bad teeth nibble you here... and here..."
"Eeek! Oh big bad wooolf..."
"Mmmm..."
"Your hands... why are they so big?"
"So I can rid you of that red, stupid little hood and cup you... here..."
"Oh... Oh, you are a big, bad wolf!"
"Yeah..."
"But – oh!"
He barred his teeth and smirked to her.
"How can you suddenly..."
"Mmmm?"
"...be so big..."
"Yeah?"
"...there?"
"I'll show you!" he growled and kept his promise. Twice.

In the afterglow, when they held each other and their breaths had slowed to a calmer, satisfied rhythm, he said: "That white pompom on the riding hood was a novelty."
She giggled and answered: "I thought it made the riding hood look more festive..."
"It did. Very catchy with white on red like that. You should wear it every Christmas."
"You too."
"Me!?"
"Oh, seriously Guy! It is your turn to be the Little Red Riding Hood next time!"
"Only if you wear the pompoms on – other parts of your body!"
"What! Where?!"
"I'll show you!" he growled and kept his promise. Twice.
