Ven: *In his* OH I CAN'T WAIT FOR VANI'S LIPS PRESSED TO MINE!

Bold is the Song Lyrics
Italics are flashbacks
It seems like only yesterday
You were just a child at play
Now you're all grown up inside of me
Vanitas Hood and Lord Ventus were alone in the Sherman Forest deep in the night. As Ventus giggled in happiness, Vanitas Hood laughed with him. It seems so odd. It like they were kids again. Both sat down, letting their legs rest until Ventus laid his head on his fiancée's shoulder. The stars shining above them. The fireflies glow with the scene. Ventus grabbed his love's hat.
"Hey!" Vanitas Hood said seeing his love wearing his hat. He just kissed Ventus's cheek before saying, "you look good with my hat on your pretty head."
Ventus grabbed his circlet and place it over Vanitas's brow. The raven rouge smiled to see the headgear around his head.
"You look good with it on." Ventus picked up his lover and said, "Tag, your it!"
"Wait what?!"
Too late, Lord Ventus had already left the area. It seems like only yesterday they used to play tag.
"Tag, your it Vanitas!" The young Ventus said with his voice higher than his adult voice.
"Come back here!" No matter how small Vanitas Hood was, his voice is always deep.
The young dark haired child had a smaller set of his green tunic with green shorts under it. As he looked in the forest, he saw a pair of black shoes with decorative green lines hanging from the branch. With amazing agility, he saw the lord today smiling at him.
"Aww, you got me!" Ventus started to pout.
"Don't pout like your uncle Xehanort."
"At least I don't suck on my thumb and cry to mommy!"
Both laughed when they returned to Ventus' home. The young king, King Eraqus, saw the two friends were never split apart. The king had black hair that is tied up in a ponytail and some straight down, and a strand of hair on his right side. The upper lip was covered with a mustache and a triangle facial hair under his lower lip. A white robe was covering his body with the cross behind him. Under it was a plated armor and tan colored pants. He smiled to see Ventus returning from the forest and saw Vanitas Hood bowing to him.
"What's the matter?" King Eraqus asked to see the young lord's smiling. "Had a good day with Vanitas Hood?"
"I sure did! He's amazing." Ventus laughed when his uncle laughed. "Can I talk to him in the garden?"
"Sure, he's no intruder."
Ventus ran outside to find Vanitas Hood had already left. He sat down crying until his own dog named Herc came by his side. He scratched the hound behind the ears. He was so empty, so alone without the child rouge next to him. Back then, he was thinking that their friendship was stronger...
Oh, how fast those moments flee
Back to the present, Vanitas Hood was looking around for his lord until he spotted Ventus near the river. He came running to Ventus. They continue to enjoy the activates they spend as children. The sat down to see the river water going by.
Once we watched a lazy world go by
Now the days seem to fly
Life is brief, but when it's gone
The rouge felt his hand being squeezed lightly. He smirked to see it was Ventus who was holding on to him. And yet...the day Ventus had to leave really haunts the young hero.
It was in the evening. The sun was setting, the sky was orange. Vanitas Hood was only twelve and Ventus was eleven, only being a year younger. When he got to the castle, he saw Ventus inside one of the couches. He ran to the carrier and saw Ventus looking at him.
"How long you re going to be gone?" Vanitas Hood asked to see Ven's eyes red from crying.
"I don't know, but can you do something for me?"
Vanitas's eyes sparked with hope. "What is it?"
"Can you carve our initials to our tree? In case you forget about me."
"No! I cannot forget you, Lord Ventus!"
"Why?" Ventus smiled to learn what will come.
"I love you, Ventus. Can I less have a kiss on the forehead?"
"Of course, then will carve our initials once I give you the kiss?" Ventus was making sure that Vanitas Hood was true to his words.
"I'll carve once you kiss my forehead."
The raven climbed up to Ventus' level. The lord then planted a small kiss on the rouge's forehead and then a small pocket knife came to Vanitas' hand. The couch started to move, and the boy jumped off, waving Ventus good-bye. He kept his promise and carved their initials to the tree in the garden.
Back to the present yet again, Vanitas Hood remembers one think that the lord promised him: their first kiss. The two continue to watch the river. Their reflection off the surface. Ventus saw how Vanitas's Hood eyes glowed in the night. Like a cougar, the outlaw was sneakily and planted his lips over Ventus. The lord did promise the winner a kiss.
Life is brief, but when it's gone
Love goes on and on
Both closed their eyes, embracing their first kiss. Ventus couldn't stop blushing red from the kiss. It was so sudden, and sneaky like Vanitas Hood. Each found themselves kissing back, savoring the taste of their lips and tongues dancing. The rouge was the first to break it to see Ventus's face red as the morning sun.
"You...you took my first kiss." Ventus said seeing Vanitas Hood hugging him.
"It was my first kiss too, Lord," said Vanitas Hood when he hugged Lord Ventus.
"I just remembered some...thing."
Vanitas Hood smirked, "What is it?"
"I can...not...marry you...until you kill Xehanort."
"What?" Vanitas Hood's eyes started to water for the first time. "What do you mean, kill Prince Xehanort?"
"Here, I'll show you." Ventus removed his jacket and lifted up his shirt to show a mark across his chest. The boy started to cry. He's bond by the prince until someone kills Xehanort. Vanitas Hood just hugs him for comfort. Ventus quickly rewear his shirt and jacket before heading to a pond with lily pads.
They sat down again to see the fireflies around them. The rouge tightens his fist. If he could only meet the prince again, and maybe, just maybe he could kill him and free Ventus from Xehanort. He craved a ring with a flower as the diamond. One of the fireflies acted like the shine.
Love will live
Love will last
Love goes on and on and on
He slid the ring to Ventus's finger before they stared into each other eyes. Their hair moved with the faint breeze in the forest. It hard to believe that Vanitas Hood and his partner lives in the forest. Ventus lived in the castle for most of his life. If he just imagine himself in Vanitas Hood's shoes. Their reflection was showing off the pond. Ventus looked up to Vanitas Hood's eyes. For the first time, the rouge was actually smiling, not smirking. The moonlight shining to the grounds. The two were skipping rocks to the waterfall. Ventus almost fallen into the water, but Vanitas Hood grabbed his hand and pulled the lord to his chest.
"Wo, watch it there."
Ventus blushed again and hides his face to Vanitas Hood's chest. The rouge chuckled and carried the lord bridal style under the waterfall near his camp.
Once we watched a lazy world go by
Now the days seem to fly
When Ventus opened his eyes, he saw Vanitas Hood next to him on his lap under the waterfall. The rouge smiled to see Ventus looking so peacefully. The two kissed again. Ventus wrapped his arms around his outlaw's neck. Vanitas Hood had his arms around his waist. Ventus moaned and was easily invaded by his love's tongue, each battling for domains. Vanitas Hood won the fight, like any other fight he battled through. When they broke their kiss, a strain of saliva was still connected from their tongues. Ventus smiled with Vanitas Hood and lay on the rouge's chest.
"I love you, Vanitas." Ventus said during their cuddling.
"I love you too, Lord Ventus." Vanitas Hood grabbed the lord's hand and walked up to the hole. "Come, we're almost near my home."
The two made it to the grounds because of all the laundry and pans all around. Ventus smiled to see the place.
Life is brief, but when it's gone
Love goes on and on
"Oh, Vanitas, what a beautiful night." The lord hugged his outlaw again. "I wish it would never end..."
Me: AAWWWW
Vanitas: Crap...
Ven: What! AT LEAST YOU GOT TO KISS ME TWICE!
Vanitas: BUT YOU RE CURSED BY XEHANORT!
Me: Sorry for the twist of irony in this chapter! Please don't hate me!
