Ok, so I know this could probably not be possible as Mytho lost his heart long before he met Rue... I think. But I was just thinking about the 'piercing your heart' bit out of that rhyme, and thought it sort of linked up. Enjoy?

Pinky Promise

So, how did the prince lose his heart? His own will, or the force of Fakir? Well, this is just one of the many possibilities...

Rue and Mytho sat in the gardens of the school grounds, Rue innocently admiring the environment and Mytho reading 'Deflowered'. (Do not ask me where that came from or why anyone permitted him to read it.) After a while of silence in which the two remained occupied with their current actions, Fakir came sprinting round the corner, panting and thrusting his head in all directions in search of his not-so-heartless friend. Once Mytho had been located, her charged up to the two, scowling and almost growling toward the 'innocent' female of the two. Rue obviously took the hint, and turned to face Mytho to bid farewell.

"Promise me you'll come back and play with me some time, Prince," she requested hopefully.

'Like that'll happen when I'm here, you little...' Fakir muttered under his breath.

Mytho smiled, "Of course," he spoke quietly as he linked pinky fingers with Rue. To be honest, neither of them knew how the 'promise rhyme thingy' went, so they just muttered something like-

"If you break the promise... I'll rip out your heart with a needle or something."

That said and done, Fakir diverted his gaze from the two saps and snatched Mytho's hand in his firm grasp and led him home where he would give him a lecture about safety or something.

For the next week, Mytho stayed locked up God knows where as Rue continued to longingly scan the school grounds, searching for her beloved little muffin. Weeks turned into fortnights, to months, to half a year, until Rue and pretty much everyone else was sick and tired (especially the fan girls)

of their gorgeous Mytho not returning. Turns out, he and Fakir went to go visit some relatives in the Bahamas. (As I said before, you think I know how they got out of the town boundaries- let alone to the Bahamas? I blame the Beatles.)

When he returned, Rue was overjoyed- yet pissed. Over joyfully pissed.

"MYTHO! Why- why didn't you play with me? Y-you broke your promise!"

Mytho looked on the bridge of tears, muttering several apologies before bowing sorrowfully. (Anyone have a synonym for that?)

"You broke your promise." The two swirled round to life their glances over their shoulders, revealing the one and only Fakir. "Now... you lose your heart."

A/N- Yeah, this really doesn't have to be taken seriously. It was an idea. Reviews welcome. Oh, and this is my first Rutho story- or my first story with Rue or Mytho in it at that fact. So anyway, thoughts, improvements- anything goes. I just want a little feedback, k?

Chow 4 now.
