Will You Be My Canary? Zidane's Point of View

~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Dagger..I love you so much..can't you see that?..... I don't think she notices me...Damnnn.... I thought.

Slowly I got off of my bed and walked out of my tent to see Dagger reading her favorite book "I Want To Be Your Canary."

If you only were my canary I thought unhappily.

Hey Zidane. Can you help me? Dagger asked looking up from her book.

Sure.. What's Up? (I love it when Zidane says what's up. it sounds soooooo cool ^_^) I asked sitting next to her.

Umm can you tell me what a bet is? She asked I overheard Steiner and Beatrix talking about a bet on you.

On me? I thought better have a nice, (un )Friendly chat with Rusty.

Well it's like umm you tell someone to do something for you and if they succeed they get money I said simply.

Dagger looked confused.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Well umm it's like if Freya and Amarant are fighting, I think Freya will win so I put gil on Freya and let's say you think Amarant will win so you put gil on Amarant, If Freya defeats Amarant then I get your money and my money I explained it's kinda like that.

Oh I see.. Dagger said staring at the fire in deep thought.

D-do you want to try a be-bet I stammered.

What? Umm . maybe.. She said.

It won't be anything bad I promised.

Well umm I guess so. she answered hesitantly.

Now's my chance I thought please don't let me screw it up.

What's the bet? Dagger asked.

I bet that-that .. You wouldn't last as my canary for 2 months I answered.

Dagger looked at me with surprise then she smiled and softly whispered in my ear what if I do? Then what do I get?

Uh oh.. Thought bigg Problem.

I'll err give you. something very special to me I answered having no Idea what was so special to me.

Okay Dagger answered simply the bet will begin tomorrow.

Then she walked to her tent.

Wow. I thought still a little dazed at what happened.

Well I still need to have a nice and (un)friendly "chat" with Rusty and Beatrix about the bet Dagger overheard................
