A/n:: Hello! Wassup! Um, before I leave to England, I would like to write a one-shot based on Rikku and Gippal. I hope you guys like it. It's a holiday special. It's about Rikku home alone and Gippal is away from travel. In this fic, they are engaged. Oh, and by the way, it's set in modern day Tokyo, Japan.
I'll Be Home For Christmas
The Christmas lights gave the tiny home a beauteous look, and the tiny figure inside was walking back and forth. She was quite worried at what tim it was, and her fiancé wasn't home yet. He was supposed to spend Christmas with her, but he wasn't there.
"He said he'd be here..." She was going to cry. Thinking of him forever hit her in the stomach, " Oh, Gippal...I hope you're okay..."
The crowd on the streets of Japan kept pusing their way out of the rush. Gippal tried to make it in to the jewelry store, but was being pushed on foward out into the road.
"Uh! I need to thataway!" Gippal exclaimed, and pushed against the crowd as he made it to the right side, " Phew, now that's a load off..." Gippal breathed for air and and got into the store.
"Uh, hi. I need to pick up the set of the Christmas colored---uh!" Gippal was interrupted by the old man's explaining.
" Yes, yes. I know. I have it here."
Gippal walked over to the counter, "Wow! It's beautiful!"
The set was ruby and emerlad earings forming a snowflake in patterns, and the same with the necklace, but much more detailed.
" Well, I think she'll like it! Won't you?" The old man asked.
" Like it? Rikku will love it!" Gippal said, and he was so suprised that today was finally the day he would give Rikku the set.
After Gippal had paid the right amount of money, he had the set packaged in a jewelry box with a ribbon.
He made it outside and there wasn't a crowd anymore.
"That's weird...uh..." Gippal stopped and looked around to and a saw a puppy standing in front of a restaurant.
" It's nice to give. Ain't it?" Gippal said and walked into the restaraunt.
Gippal brought out two riceballs (japanese dessert and it's really good!) and shared one with the puppy.
"Merry Christmas!" Gippal said and pet the puppy, " eh, maybe I can take you home with me."
(a/n:: I dunno what it's called, but it's a small dog with fluffy fur and has hair covering it's eyes. LOL! I don't know what it's called, but they are so cute!)
Gippal took the poor thing home and was talking to it on it's way there.
" So, once you meet Rikku, she'll love to have you. We're getting married soon! HAHA! I can't wait!" Gippal said only a few blocks away from home.
Rikku stared out the frosted window and waited for Gippal's return.
" Oh, Gippal..."
There was a slight knock on the door and Rikku got up.
" Oh please let it be Gippal." Rikku opened the door and a saw a grinning Gippal with the peace sign on his fingers.- ( ya no, two fingers up...)
"GIPPAL! YOU CAME HOME!" Rikku screamed with gleefullness as she jumped up and hugged Gippal.
"I know I did Cid's girl, but can we please close the door. It's snowing real badl---!" Gippal was silenced by a kiss and the dog between their stomachs was getting squished.
"Oh, what do we have here?" Rikku asked, and her eyes grew wider," A PUPPY!"
Gippal got up and put the necklace on Rikku's neck.
"Merry Christmas Rikku..." Gippal said, warming Rikku in a sweet, tender, kiss...
The End
