Spontaneous Love
Cresselia giggled and (gracefully) plonked herself down onto Darkrai's lap.
Her boyfriend glanced up from the book he'd been reading, eyebrow raised but unsurprised. Cresselia grabbed his book and tossed it away.
"I was reading that." Darkrai deadpanned.
His girlfriend ignored him.
"Do you know what today is, Darkrai?" Cresselia questioned cheerfully, waiting for him to shower her with tokens of love.
Darkrai just stared at her blankly. "…it's not one of those month-aversaries is it? Because I told you I think those are stupid."
Cresselia pouted and crossed her arms, suddenly not as giggly as before. "That's not funny, Darkrai. You must know what today is."
Darkrai continued to stare blankly, hoping she'd give him the answer, only to receive a death glare back. He winced inwardly; whenever Cresselia looked at him like that it always meant he was in trouble.
He quickly racked his brain for the date.
February 14th. What was so special about that?
It wasn't their anniversary of when they'd met, or when they'd got together, or when they'd first gone on a date, or when they'd first kiss, or even when they'd…never mind! He just knew it wasn't an anniversary (why were girls so obsessed with those anyway?).
So what was special about February 14th?
…Oh!
And then he remembered.
Ooohh…he was dead.
"Valentine's Day." He stated, pokerfaced so she wouldn't work out he'd forgotten.
Cresselia's expression lit up again. "So you did remember! Well, what do you have planned for us to do?"
"Honestly, nothing." He told her, opting for the truth rather than a ridiculous lie. He wasn't going to make a fool of himself just because he was afraid of his girlfriend. Though that wasn't to say he wasn't afraid of her; Cresselia could be pretty terrifying when she was angry.
Cresselia's face fell, eyes widening in disbelief. "What? Nothing!"
"I don't believe in expressing affection just because it's tradition." Darkrai told her truthfully. "That's not what love is. Love is spontaneous, it can't be planned. I didn't plan on falling in love with you," Noticing her glowering expression he back-tracked. "But I did and I don't regret it, but what I'm trying to say is falling in love isn't planned, so why should I have to follow planned traditions to express my love."
Cresselia still looked a little crestfallen. "I guess I understand what you're saying… but today's supposed to be the day when love can be expressed to the full! No public boundaries… you know, unless it's breaking the law. I know it's just a silly tradition but I kind of like silly traditions… I guess I was just hoping for something since it's our first Valentine's Day together."
She looked down forlornly and Darkrai watched her wonderingly, wanting to make her happy again.
He gently placed his hand to her cheek and she glanced up at the tender touch, letting out a gasp as his lips slammed onto hers.
Sparks shot through her and she swiftly returned the kiss; closing her eyes as the whole world around them evaporated leaving just Darkrai and her, and the wonderful passionate sensation they were creating between.
Lips raged battles, tongue clashed, and it all resulted in a firework of burning emotions.
All too soon they broke apart, Cresselia gasping for air whilst Darkrai watched her coolly.
"How's that for love expressed to the full." Darkrai asked, the tiniest hint of a smirk spreading across his face.
Cresselia looked at him, face still red from the heat of the moment and smiled. "Okay, I admit that was better than a bunch of silly heart-shaped balloons."
This time Darkrai did smile. "See, spontaneous is better."
"Shut up." Cresselia muttered, rolling her eyes and grabbing the collar of his shirt, pulling forward and crashing her lips upon his.
For a moment, Darkrai just stared stunned and then he smirked against her lips and let his mouth respond with matched desire.
A few passers-by stared at them disapprovingly but that didn't bother them, they were too wrapped up with each other.
No public boundaries, remember. Maybe PDA wasn't so bad, at least not if you were on the receiving end of it.
A/N: I didn't originally plan on writing this, but then someone made a request and figured I might as well considering I've included Darkrai and Cresselia as a couple in my other fics relating to this Alternate Universe.
I think Darkrai may be a bit out of character to how I normally write him but I suppose I didn't have as much time to plan this through as the others.
Anyway, hope you liked it =)
