Not So Fireproof

by Taliax

She doesn't know why, but she doesn't mind his fire. AkuShi, Xion's POV.

I'm not so fireproof,

I'm quite flammable, actually,

And you're so warm and close it's difficult

To not ignite suddenly

XXX

It starts with your cocky smirk

-Why can't I help liking it?-

That brings heat to my cheeks

As I flush as red as the sunset

XXX

Then sometimes, you'll take my hand

It's comforting, like a flickering hearth

But then why do I shiver? I don't know,

But it doesn't feel too bad

XXX

Sitting next to me, you let me lean on you

And it's better than a thick quilt

Banishing the cold tendrils

Of fear and doubt

XXX

I burn when your arms wrap around me

I melt into your embrace

Flames surround me in a fiery ring

Only felt though, and not seen

XXX

It's a miracle I don't combust on the spot

With all the energy burning inside

But I'm sure not cold and I don't regret

Not being fireproof.

A/N: Title inspiration came from one of the scores on the How to Train Your Dragon soundtrack. Everything else popped out of nowhere. This pairing likes to do that. A lot. I feel like I might have messed up Xion's personality. ...Why do I think this might be the most embarrassing thing I've posted?
