surprises
nothing's like before
Olette loved surprises. So when she was shown the 'secret' spot atop the clock tower, she was ecstatic. Pence had whipped out four sea-salt popsicles, and they sat down to watch the setting sun.
Xigbar loved surprises. Well, if what he did counted.
You see, Xigbar liked surprising people. Sneaking up on 'Shorty', messing with Xaldin's dread-braids, shooting play-bullets on the center of Dog-boy's scar – you name it, he'd done it.
Pence had to help his mother for the day, and bade the group to go have fun for him.
So the two had split up – Hayner went to go get Roxas and Olette went to buy some more sea-salt ice cream. They were to meet up at the clock tower in fifteen minutes.
Olette had the frozen treat in just five. Not expecting to see the boys for another ten, she set off for the meeting place. The girl made it there and sat down, waiting.
When Xigbar spied an orange-clad teen up on the clock tower, he had to act. I mean, really – she was freaking asking to be surprised!
The man teleported to the top of the clock tower and snuck downwards. He knew he wouldn't be seen – people seldom look up.
"Hey there!"
The girl didn't scream, though she looked up, aware.
"Who're you?"
"Call me Xigbar."
"Olette. Here – I have an extra." She held out a Popsicle, for it was true. In her haste, she'd unthinkingly bought one for Pence.
Why was she being so nice to a stranger? One with a weird black coat and an eye patch, no less.
She didn't know how it happened, but – he ended up kissing her. She could taste the trace of the salty-sweet treat on his lips.
Xigbar always got what he wanted.
He noticed the footsteps first, and swept the girl off her feet. One of her arms was around his neck, one of his hands on her waist.
She was startled, alright.
Surprised, if you will.
He grinned as the boys looked up into his one good eye. "Hey!"
Both looked freaked out – Roxas was blushing horribly.
"Later, losers." Xigbar stepped off the platform, descending slowly through the air.
Hayner looked to Roxas.
"What the hell?"
It's short, yes. But I got down what I had to say. :-\
Haha, first Xigbar & Olette on fanfiction!
None of the aforementioned characters are mine.
For Jaded-Raindrop's crack contest!
