Small Town 1,000 iles away from May.
I took a deep breath, 'You can do this, you lied to the old man earlier in order to get this far. I'm sure sleeping with someone for bus fare can't be that bad...' I sighed, 'Who am I kidding? You've never even had sex before, what makes you think you can do it for money?' I clenched my hands into fists at my side. It sounds kind of sad doesn't it? You live for over a hundred years and you still haven't lost your virginity! Before I could talk myself out of going in to the bar I marched in with my head down. I looked up when I heard a familiar voice.
"NICK!" I yelled, as I ran and jumped into his arms. I wrapped my legs around his waist and my arms around his shoulders. "I missed you so much, it has been so long since I've seen you!" I let go of him and stood in front of him looking up at his face. "Wow, Nicky you got so tall."
"Sim, I see you haven't changed at all. When was the last time I saw you? I was how old? Seven? Eight?" He grinned down at me. "Vash," He was elbowing the tall blonde man in red next to him. "This woman here was my first love," He was frowning dramaticly now, "She broke my heart by leaving me for an older men!" I could hear laughter behind his voice, even with the fake tears streaming down his face.
I beamed, slapping him on the chest. "That's not how it was, and you know it! I had to leave!"
"P-pr-pretty!" That's all the blonde man said, then as if he had been slapped he got on his knees in front of me. "My beautiful goddess, since you are not with Wolfwood, would you do me the honor of becoming my wife?" He had both of my hands in one of his, kissing them. I stood there looking down at his handsome face, into his lovely blue-green eyes. There was a small beauty mark below his left eyes, and his lips looked so kissable. That thought shocked me, because in all my years I've never had that feeling before. I have never been attracted to a single man in my whole 102 years of life.
I said the first thing that popped into my head, "Y-yes..." He looked as if he were shocked as well by the answer I had just given him. "But you must court me first!" I then added, with a satisfied smile on my face.
The look on Nick's face, I'm not going to lie, it was scary. He looked as if he could spit nails. I hope that look was never aimed at me. He grabbed the blonde man by the scruff of his neck and threw him into a wall. "You are not going to hurt this woman!" His face was harsh, but the tone of his voice made everyone in the bar look his way. "You know what? There is no way your getting out of this one, Vash! I will be your priest and hold the ceremony, here next week!" By now Vash was up a strange look on his face, he was starring at Nick. Nick had murder in his eyes.
"N-Nicky, I'm sure he was just kidding. I didn't take a word that came out of his mouth to heart!" I stammered out, then turned at the sound of someone clearing their throat. "What?" I asked harshly.
"Well, you are wrong, I meant every word!" Vash said, a serious look on his face. "I would never joke about something as serious as marriage." He grabbed me by the waist, pulling me close to him. 'Was he this tall a fer seconds ago?' I asked myself. He looked down at me a seductive look on his face, "I would make you the happiest woman for iles!" He wiggled his eyebrows at me.
Just when he started to lean down bringing his face closer to mine, I was ripped from his arms by an infuriated Nick. "None of that," He said, hiding me behind him as if I were a child. "Simmy let me buy you a drink!" He winked at me, "I wonder if you learned to hold your drink?" He was laughing at me.
"You bet I did, little man! I could out drink you any day!" I said, mentally kicking myself for the challenge.
"Your on, old woman!" He said, then ordered three bottles of Wild Turkey. "You getting in on this Vash?" He called, and before I could blink Vash was sitting on the bar stool next to me. Drinks were poured, shots taken, and laughs shared. It seemed like my glass was never empty, then before I knew it Nick was ordering another bottle.
"Look, Woofwood, I think shesh drunk!" Vash slurred, "Eh, Shimmy, how old are you you don't look old enough to know Woof when he was a boy..." He then fell of the stool, and broke into a fit of giggles.
I held up my glass, wobbling a little in my seat. "I'm an old woman, one hundred and two!" I giggled then covered my mouth with both hands. Vash was laughing at me, "You think I'm lying? Well, I am telling the truth... Why are you laughing at me!" I stood up, I was swaying from side to side.
"You're not an old lady! I'm at least fifty years older than you!" He said, looking over my shoulder at the passed out Nick. "Don' tell 'im though. He thinks he is older than me!" I could see spots in front of my eyes, I felt my limbs getting heavier.
"I think I'm going to-" That was all I got out before I felt myself lurch forward and into Vash. His grinning face was all I saw before everything went black.
