You're reading, so just review. How hard can it be? :)


Perfume

She smelled funny.

Sazh had almost turned around to ask her why when his brain successfully comprehended the scowl on her face. He stopped himself in time, and turned back, straightening his shoulders. He valued his life, as well as his ability to reproduce.

But still…

Lightning, wearing perfume? What was up with that?

He soon found out.

As he rounded another corner, he spotted four girls, laughing hysterically amidst broken glass and clear, scented liquid.

Shaking his head, he almost walked past when Serah screamed at him to stop.

"WHAT!?" he demanded, feeling paranoid.

"I LOVE-" she started to say, but the big man had already ran away screaming like a little girl.

So much for 'man'.

--

"Snow, Snow, Snow!!"

"Yeah?"

"I told Sazh that I love-"

"WHAT?!"

"-you."

"Oh. … WHAT?!"

"OW!"

"Sorry…" Snow patted her head. "What did you say to Sazh?"

"I was going to say 'I love Snow', but he ran off before I could," the girl huffed.

"I see…" Snow said warily. He took a sip of his drink.

"Oh, and we got Lightning to wear perfume!!"

There was a sputtering sound as Snow spat out the liquid all over his papers. Damn… Serah looked smug, as though she was expecting that reaction from him. He had a sneaky suspicion that she had waited for him to take a sip before telling him this.

Eh.

"Tell me how you got her to wear perfume," Snow snickered.

That is way more important.

--

The bottle of perfume lay shattered on the floor. There was an awkward silence as the fragrance wafted up to their nostrils, before Serah sighed. "That's the fifth one you've broken today," she remarked.

"It's not the last one, is it?"

"Nope."

Lightning groaned.

"It's just perfume!!" Vanille whined.

"It's also a new way of torturing me."

"And it's liquid." All eyes went to Fang, who looked away, shifty-eyed. "Uh…"

"Never mind," Serah grumbled, picking up a new bottle, and aiming it at her sister.

Lightning's hand flashed out like, well, Lightning (pun intended- ow), and slapped the bottle from the pink haired girl's hand.

"LIGHTNING!!"

"FOR THE LAST TIME, NO!!" Lightning broke free of the rest of her bonds and shot out the door, screaming madly. "NO NO NO NO NONONONONONO!!!!"

Serah, Fang and Vanille exchanged looks, and followed, giggling.

They'd broken the Commander!!

This mission was a success!!

Lightning ran down the corridors, still screaming.

The three of them followed.

The sound of shattering glass met their ears, and the strong, tangy and flowery smell of many different perfumes almost overwhelmed them. Vanille actually coughed, and had to cover her mouth and nose before she passed out.

And Lightning was covered head to toe in the scented liquid.

--

Sazh, who was listening behind the door, burst out laughing, and ran off, snorting. Lightning wearing perfume!!

He had to go take a scented picture…

--

"There you are, my beauties," Lightning crooned. "Mm…"

The door flew open, and Lightning whirled around. "What-"

Two jaws dropped in unison.

Jihl and Gaa- I mean, Yaag stared at their best Commander in shock.

She was dressed in a pink, frilly dress, with flowers in her hair and accessories covering almost every inch of her being.

And in her hands was a bottle of perfume.

-fin-


Yeah, I rushed it.

:(

Eh, oh well!! 8D Hope you guys enjoyed it. Not much of humor, I guess, but… eh. XD

Review!!
