Rave Master Drabble Series

~x~

Summary: A collection of the various drabble series that I sometimes get requested to do on Tumblr. Will contain a variety of situations, AU's, pairings, and lengths.

Author's Note: I have (once again) changed my username. It is no longer 'tehsecretardor' and is now 'elieg1ory'. Feel free to find and follow me on Tumblr under the same username.

Prompt One: You saved me from getting hit on by a creepy guy.

Julia kept telling her to be more careful when she was talking to random guys. She said that most guys wouldn't realize she was just friendly, not flirty. And, for the first time, Elie finally understood what she meant.

It had started innocently enough, just the two of them standing at the bus stop. She had seen him there a few times, but hadn't struck up a conversation with him previously. He, however, must have had different plans. "Nice weather," he said, voice smooth.

"Sure is!" Elie said happily. It hadn't stormed in weeks, which was always a good thing for Elie. Any weather was good so long as there was no thunder. "It's finally started to feel like summer time."

The guy smiled, and she smiled back, expecting that to be the end. "What's your name?" he asked, leaning towards her a little bit. She told him - what was the harm in that? - and he smiled. "Pretty. My name is Lucia." Elie smiled at him, nodding but not knowing what else to say. "Do you live around here?"

"Yeah," Elie said, checking her phone. The bus should have been here some time ago. When she chanced a glance back at him, he had moved a step or two closer. "How about you?" He only smiled and nodded.

His smile made her uneasy, even though it was noon and there were plenty of people walking or driving by. "So, Elie, would you care to join me for dinner tonight?" Lucia asked after a second. "How does tomorrow night sound, I can take you to the casino restaurant."

"Oh," Elie said, wishing she wasn't standing so close to the edge of the small shelter. "That's really sweet of you, but, um -"

"Come on, just one date," pushed Lucia, leaning a little closer. This time, Elie leaned away, but it didn't seem to deter him. "We'll have a great time."

She stammered for a little while longer, trying to come up with an excuse, but his smile suggested that he knew she couldn't think up one. Just as she was about to cave - really, what was one date? - someone else entered the little shelter. Her eyes met his and he must have seen the desperation in them because he cleared his throat and made his way over.

Elie expected him to politely ask Lucia to leave, but instead, he grinned like crazy and just pushed right back him. "Hey! It's been so long, how have you been?!" he asked, grabbing her arms. He winked at her, and she breathed a sigh of relief. "It's me, Haru, don't you recognize me?"

"Haru, oh my gosh!" she cried, throwing her arms around him. "It has beenforever, I can't believe you're back in town!"

Lucia cleared his throat, but the two of them ignored him. "We need to catch up, are you free right now?" the guy said, looping his arm through hers. "Let me take you to lunch."

"Oh, that would be great!" Elie said happily, all smiles. "Sorry, Lucia, maybe another time!" she called over her shoulder as the two of them left the bus stop. For a second, she thought he was going to follow them, but the bus pulled up right then and he begrudgingly stepped on board. It wasn't until the bus had turned the corner and was out of sight that the two of them unhooked their arms, and Elie breathed another sigh of relief. "You are a real life saver, Haru."

He grinned, scratching behind his neck. "Nah, it's nothing. You just looked way uncomfortable, so I thought I'd step in. What's your name, anyways?"

"Elie."

"You should probably stay away from that bus route for a little while if you can," Haru warned. "He might come back looking for you."

She sighed. "Yeah." Elie looked up at him, smirking. "Maybe I'll just count on you to swoop in and save me again." He laughed a little, but mirrored her smirk.

"Well, maybe I will," he teased back. The two of them shared a laugh for a second before coming to a crosswalk. Haru's cheeks darkened a little bit, and he shoved his hands in his pockets. "So, uh, you still want that lunch?"

Author's Note: hello my lovely readers! I know I have been incredibly inactive as of late, but please believe me when I say that it is not from a lack of interest! I am extremely busy, and don't often have time to write (my updates honestly come and go so much because most times, I write an entire chapter in one sitting after a burst of inspiration). So, yeah! This fic will just be a whole bunch of drabbles that I write on Tumblr, as I am trying to link the two together a little more. But yeah! For those that still read in this fandom, I hope you enjoy it!
