Mihile paced around the platform impatiently with his hands behind his back. Any monster that stepped in his way was kicked off.
"What do I say...what do I say..."
Hawkeye, the youngest knight jumped up to the platform Mihile was on. "Hey! What's up bro?"
"..."
"Awww don't do that. C'mon, tell me. Did you miss a meeting? Did you piss of Neinheart? Are you in love?"
That last question made his heart skip a beat.
"Ahhh, who is it? C'mon, tell me!"
Mihile couldn't tell him his true feelings or he would laugh at him and tell the whole of Erev.
"Cygnus? Oz? Cause they're both hot!"
How could Mihile tell Hawkeye that he liked Eckhart. How?
"Look, I have an idea. Just go up to her and tell her you like her?"
"What did you say?"
"Go up and say 'I love you', then maybe ask her out for dinner or something.
Mihile stood there in thought for a moment. "I will!"
"Can I come with you?"
"Hell no!"
It was near dusk. Everybody had gone to dinner, except for Eckhart. He was a bit antisocial and prefered to get a home delivery of something...like noodles. Mihile approached Eckhart, who was perched on his regular tree.
"Eckhart...I want to talk to you."
"You already are..." he replied.
"Eckhart...I..."
"Hurry up! My noodles are getting cold!"
Mihile couldn't take it much more. "Eckhart...I love you!"
Silence
"Do you love me?" he added.
Eckhart spat out his noodles, which landed just infront of Mihile.
"Is this some kind of joke?"
Mihile remembered Hawkeye's advice. "Do you want to go out to dinner or something?"
Eckhart dropped his box of noodles summoned a giant Shuriken.
"Start running."
"But I..."
"Five...four...three..."
"Eckhart!"
"Two...one..."
Mihile ran away as fast as he could as Eckhart launched the massive Shuriken. It was now ten metres away...five...three...one...
"Now or never..." said Mihile as he grabbed onto a tree and spun around. The shuriken missed him and turned around.
"What a lovely dinner. Thank you Cygnus." said Oz
"Agreed!" said the other two knights.
"You're all welcome." said Cygnus as she smiled.
"What's that noise?" asked Oz.
"Sounds like a Shuriken" said Irena.
"And Mihile screaming..." added Hawkeye. "Wait...who the hell did he ask out?"
"What?" asked the other three.
Mihile tripped on the noodles and crashed into Cygnus as the Shuriken flew overhead. Mihile blushed as he realized he was lying on top of the empress.
"I'm sorry..." he muttered as he got off the equally embarrassed Cygnus.
"Doesn't matter." she replied, brushing off the grass on her dress.
"Woo! Go Mihile!" yelled Hawkeye.
"Muahaha! All's well ends well!" said Eckhart in a quiet tone so no-one else understood what he had said.
"That was kinda cute." said Oz.
"So...what happened back there Eckhart?" asked Irena. Eckhart fell off the tree.
"You do NOT want to know..."
Just a quick A/N, hope you enjoyed chapter 1 and would love reviews. Before I get a flame barrage, I have nothing against homosexuals, but I do have something against authors who write about them like 'fap material'. Same goes for any sexuality. I also dislike unrealistic fanfic, hence the title 'It doesn't work like that'.
