Disclaimer: Don't own anything ; ^ ;
Summary: Fedora's make Firo look charming and well-dressed, but when it's on Ennis, it makes him red in the face.
Warning: Fluff & Small Spoilers.
Ennis and Firo had been hanging around in a hat store all day, looking for a hat to buy Maiza. He had lost his not too long ago and Firo wanted to pay him back for buying him his green fedora. Ennis had been looking at all the different ones, curious on how each was made. A few years after Firo had devoured Szilard, Ennis has slowly been learning human emotion. She had learned happiness and sadness, and she's now learning love and hate. Firo thought of it to be a tad ironic, but he liked that she was learning to love.
He looked at the different hats, when his head felt suddenly cold. He reached up and felt his hair. His hat was gone! He quickly turned around to see Ennis wearing the hat. His cheeks flushed as he saw her wearing it. It suited her very well.
"Lookin' good, Ennis!" he told her, giving her a thumbs up. She softly smiled.
"Your head's bigger than I thought" she told him before the hat slipped downwards, causing it to fall over her eyes. He chuckled, his cheeks still burning. He thought to himself, "Mother of God, she's so freakin' cute"
She then walked forwards, where Firo was standing. He swiftly jumped to the right, making more distance between the two. When Ennis had gotten to where Firo HAD been, she moved her hands to see if she felt any part of his body. He chuckled.
"M'over here Ennis!" he told her and she slowly walked over, and just in the nick of time, he jumped again to the right. She still reached out for him and he was still laughing.
"C'mon Ennis!" he said again, but this time when he moved he tripped on his own foot and had fallen onto the wooden floor. Ennis naturally walked into his foot, causing her to fall on top of him, landing with a small 'thud' on the ground. The shopkeeper took a small look, and then went back to reading the paper. Firo's hat had slid off of Ennis head onto his face. Ennis laughed softly and put Firo's hat back on his head.
"We shud get you a fedora Ennis" he said, smiling at her. She had a small confused look on her face.
"Why?" she asked him. He smiled then sat up, making her now sitting on his lap. Her face flushed just the tiniest amount of pink. He smiled charmingly then wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her closer.
"So then you can look better than any otha woman in the 'tire world" he coaxed, nuzzling her neck softly. She looked surprised at first, then slowly looked downwards.
"But I'm not even a real woman" she said, sadly. Firo pouted, then kissed her on the cheek.
"But you're prettier than all of 'em put togetha. No matter if yer a human or not" he told her sincerely, blushing until his cheeks were a bright red. She slowly smiled.
"Do you honestly mean that?" she asked him quietly. He nodded then leaned into her face and places his forehead on her cheek. He could feel a small radiation of heat coming off from her cheek. A small blush from Ennis would be like a large blush on a normal girl.
"You know it Ennis, you know it" he said, almost in a whisper. He lifted his head and slowly kissed her on the lips. It was a soft, light kiss that didn't last too long. His face had now turned all red and Ennis smiled.
"You know Firo…" she started. "I'm learning to love, but I think that feeling's always been there for you" she told him, then slowly snuggled into his chest, the small blush on her face staying put.
Firo didn't know what to say to her, for once; but either way, he felt his face emitting more heat than a furnace on a cold winter night.
