Okay, this fic's characters will remain anonymous, even though I had a couple in mind when I'm writing this. So you can just work your imagination out and put your favourite couples in! ^^ Um, one exception, you can't make this yaoi/yuri, because I'm using he and she, so sorry to yaoi/yuri fans.

The Cactus Club
Story by: Wings
============
He glanced at
the small building before pushing open the door and entering. His
eyes scanned the whole Cactus Club, as a friendly waitress stepped up and
asked, "Are you alone or joining someone?"
Frowning slightly,
he replied, "Joining someone. I don't think she's arrived yet though."
"Maybe you would
like to seat down at a table and wait for your friend?"
"Sure."
He finally settled
down in a small table by the window, and took a sip of his cappuccino.
A fresh aroma of coffee filled the air, as he looked around at the unique
design of the Cactus Club. He was just about to add in some sugar
when a breathless voice interrupted.
"Sorry I'm late."
she gratefully accepted the glass of water pushed towards her and gulped
down half the content. Pushing the hair away from her eyes, she asked,
"Why did you want to see me?"
Giving her a
mock look of hurt, he answered, "Is seeing an old friend a crime?"
"A mocha please,
heavy on the chocolate." she called out to the approaching waitress and
ordered. Turning back to him, she smiled sweetly, "Of course not.
So how are you lately?"
"Fine, but lately
I just don't seem to get enough sleep." he gazed straight into her eyes.
She grinned,
and in a teasing tone, "What?! I think I just recalled one of those
Kodak moments when I saw you sleeping like a pig and snoring your head
off!!"
"Hey, it isn't
my fault!" he protested, smiling, but shrugged. "Something's been
bugging me."
"Hmm...?" her
curiosity was aroused. What could possibly bug her good friend?
His smile disappeared
as he questioned, "So, tell me. Is this a symptom of love, if you
keep thinking about a particular someone all the time?"
She lowered her
head and thought for a moment, before answering, "That depends. It
could be a symptom of love, or it's just plainly that you missed that person."
Suddenly, her gaze turned serious, "Or, not usually a common one though,
that it could be a sign of danger. It just depends."
"I guess I'll
take it as a sign that I missed that person." he sighed and relaxed.
"Okay, 'fess
up. Who is it?!" she demanded with mischief full in her eyes.
Laughing, he
replied, "Guess, girl. If you got it then I'll pay for your mocha."
Just as she was
about to say something, a mocha slided in front of her. "Here's your
mocha, miss." the waitress smiled and walked away.
"Thanks." she
took a sip and looked at him, "It has to be one of us DDs, isn't it?"
He eyes lit up
as he chuckled, "Yes, it just has to be, hm?"
"Alright, enough
games. Tell me now." she joked playfully.
Leaning forward,
he whispered in a low, raspy voice, "It's you." He pulled back just
in time to see her face turning from shock and surprise, to a beautiful
shade of rosy pink.
"You mean it?"
she was awed.
Smiling, he answered,
"I mean it."
To his surprise,
she bit her lips nervously. "I never expected this... but. " she
put a dramatic pause in between, before grinning, "I think this will work."
He gave her an
innocent look and asked, "What will work?"
"This."
Smiling devilishly, she leaned forward and gave him a kiss on the lips
lightly.
Quickly converting
his surprise to happiness, he replied, "That won't work, but this will."
He brought her chin closer with his fingers and locked his lips with hers,
drowning both of them in the sea of passion. After what seems like
an eternity, they finally parted, breathless. "You know what?
This Cactus Club should be renamed."
"To what?"
"Something like
the Coffee Club, or maybe--"
"Nah, that's
too ordinary. The Cactus Club is more unique." she shook her head
and took another sip of her mocha.
He laughed, "Even
if it's full of spikes?"
"Nothing is smooth,
only spikes is the reality." she said thoughtfully, and continued, "And
so is the course of love."
"Well, even though
it's full of spikes, we'll just have to chop them all down together, huh?"
he grinned at her.
"Yep, we'll just
have to chop them all down together." she echoed softly with a smile.
