AN: *sigh* Crappy title, for a short crappy fic…So this is based on a …tiff I got into with my Gil today. So, Gil…I know you won't see this but….yeah. And to any readers….first fic….so….um…..its crap..and…read on?


"Just leave me alone!" I yelled, slamming the door in his face. I crumbled into my bed, ignoring his confused complaints all the while trying to keep the reason of my anger from my mind. To no avail, I found, soon as the pounding at my door creased.

…I knew it was petty…but I couldn't help but take offense. It was hard to imagine one little word could cause such a stir up in me. I knew I was over reacting. But…that didn't change anything. I guess…I guess I thought he was just above that…that WE were above that.

I rolled onto my stomach, burring my face in my pillow. Stupid…stupid stupid stupidstupidstupidstupid! Stupid Gil! Stupid me! No, no stupid Gil! He should know better than to talk to a future duke like that! To his master! To his best friend!

No…this isn't Gil's fault. Its mine. I sighed, pulling out the golden watch from my pocket. A slight click as it flipped open, to be followed by that melody I loved so much. Lacie. It just felt….familiar. And so far, it never failed to make me feel better.

I closed my eyes, letting my mind wander back over the events of today. The sun was shining, despite promises of rain. With Pandora issues on standby, Sharon-chan convinced us to have a tea party outside. With Break away, I actually got to finish my own cake, always a nice change of pace. Things were calm….too calm. I couldn't help myself. A simple flick of the wrist, that was all it took to toss a little kitty-cat at Gil. Nothing out of the ordinary.

But…this time…he flipped out on me.

That look…he was glaring at me. His voice was low, a dark his. 'Bastard'. And the cat was flung away. Everyone laughed and snickered, Alice quick to mock, a full fledged battle of wits soon erupting.

Click…pleasant melodies jarred to a halt. I trailed the watch chain through my fingers. Bastard. Gil…had called me a bastard. Did I…did he really think…I sighed deeply letting my head hang.

I didn't matter really though. I always ended up hurting people. I thought…maybe Gil was different…

I shook my head. Maybe I was just being immature about this…oversensitive.

I scowled, feeling tears in my eyes. I tried to resist the urge to pull out my hair. I couldn't understand why I was so worked up. So sensitive. So weak.

But I couldn't get that word out of my head.

"Oz…Oz…are you okay?"

I jumped. He was right outside. Damn it, Gil! I took a deep breath, coaxing myself to cast those thoughts from my mind. I plastered a smile on my face, springing forward with more cheeriness than I felt, and opened the door.
