Okay, so here is the new chapter. Although it might appear that their dates ar OCs, they are not. I chose Traverse Town because you can talk to other people there. Terra's date is the girl from outside the cafe in KH2, she tells you about Traverse Town and how it is the place where lost people go, yada yada yada.
Aqua's date is some guy from Traverse Town who's just kinda there, you know? Anyways, this has a little OOCness in the Aqua department, but it was kind of crucial to the plot. Oh well, enjoy!
6.) Terra-gon — A noun. Terragon is an ingredient most often used in the recipe of disaster. One of the most popular recipes featuring Terragon is Love Potion, often accompanied with the ingredients of one hot brunette girl, one jealous blue haired girl, and one very bad date. Terragon usually ends up flustered by the end, and disappears for a while.
The night spread like a diamond studded blanket across the sky, millions of twinkling lights reigning in the Heavens. A warm breeze swept through the lush green trees, warm and chilly at the same time. The perfect night, Terra decided.
"All dressed up and nowhere to go?" came a voice from behind the teen. He swirled around to find his life long friend, Aqua, curled up with a book of magic on the couch. Her long legs were draped over the arm nearest Terra, and he desperately tried to avoid staring. Hey, he wasn't going to deny the fact that he'd had a crush on Aqua since they first met.
"Actually, I am going somewhere," Terra replied, glancing out the window and into the night once more. He was hesitant to leave yet, afraid of being to early.
Aqua sat up now, setting her book on the coffee table next to her. "Oh? Pray tell."
Terra rubbed the back of his head nervously, then immediately pulled away, afraid of ruining his hair that he had worked hours on. "Uh, yeah. I actually have… Well, you see… I'm kinda-"
"He has a date tonight," finished Master Eraqus from across the room, scaring the crap out of both of them. Aqua narrowed her eyes.
"A date, huh? With whom?" If looks could kill, thought Terra, he'd be dead now for sure.
"With this girl I met in Traverse Town. I met her outside the tavern."
That only seemed to provoke Aqua further. "Oh, so she's a tavern wench."
It was Terra's turn to be annoyed. "Wow, Aqua. You don't even know her!"
"And you do?"
"I asked her on a date didn't I?"
"I wouldn't judge her at all by that! Seems to support my theory rather well, actually."
"Are you calling me a player?"
"I'm calling you a womanizer!"
"Well, you're a girl!"
"That's what you called me the first time we fought, and I stick by that it's lame!"
"You remember that? Nerd! Look at you, you're so obsessed with me that you remember all of our conversations!"
"Do not!" "Yeah, I bet you wish you were a tavern wench, just so you could get in my-"
"ENOUGH!" Master Eraqus roared. Both teens froze, their eyes still narrowed and their faces set in scowls. "I will not tolerate this kind of childish behavior. Aqua, apologize for calling Terra's date an obscene and offensive term. Terra, apologize for telling Aqua that she wanted to get - er - apologize for what you were going to tell her."
Aqua lowered her head, a shamed look on her face. "I'm sorry for calling your date a wench."
Terra smirked, not able to resist saying, "And I'm sorry that you can't help but want to jump me."
Aqua gasped, her face beat red. She would've glared at Terra, but she couldn't get the look of embarrassment off of her face. Terra grinned.
"TERRA!" Master boomed again. "Apologize right this instant or I'm grounding you from your date."
"I'm sorry, Aqua," Terra finally managed. He glanced at his watch, his face suddenly contorting to a look of alarm, realizing that he was late. He threw open the front door and tore out of the castle, calling his glider.
Aqua watched him disappear with a sigh of longing. He had looked so handsome with his hair combed neatly, faded jeans, and leather jacket. She wished that he'd dress like that around her.
"Aqua," Master spoke. The blue haired girl looked up, her sapphire eyes meeting his own chocolate ones. "You don't have to sit around tonight. You can dress up, go out for a night on the town, maybe go to dinner at the tavern and see that new movie."
Eraqus winked at her, and she soon caught on. He was encouraging her to go after Terra. He'd even included all of Terra's plans.
Smirking, Aqua replied, "You know, Master, I might just do that."
Aqua was swimming in clothes by the time she had her outfit perfected. She didn't want to look to formal; that would give it away. Instead, she opted for a shimmering navy blue top and a plaid micro mini. The skirt was red and blue, a good contrast but a perfect match. She set a chunky black leather belt above the micro, a perfect accessory to her outfit. She wore brown wedges and completed the outfit with a blue sapphire necklace that complimented her eyes. She looked perfectly casual, but she was bound to catch every man's eye tonight.
Aqua traipsed down the stairs, her brown handbag thumping her on the back with every step. Before she left, she called a goodbye and thank you to her master. Then she set off for a night to remember.
"Hey," Terra greeted, lightly touching his date on the shoulder. She greeted him with a beaming smile on her face.
"Hi, Terra. Wow, you look great!"
Terra blushed. "So do you."
Terra took her arm as they ventured down the cobblestone streets of Traverse Town, occasionally entering stores and stopping to window shop. The two wandered aimlessly around Traverse Town for about an hour before Terra stopped to ask, "You want to go get something to eat?"
The girl giggled and laced her fingers through Terra's hand. "Sure, Terra!"
Terra lead the girl down the dimly lit streets, enjoying the nice warm night. She laid her head on his shoulder as they walked, and he wrapped his arm around her waist, hugging her to him.
They stopped at the little café in the first district, right outside of the entrance to the town. Terra pulled a seat out for his date and then sat himself across from her. She smiled and leaned across the table, caressing his face. He caught her hand and went to kiss it, but stopped when he heard a large group of boys hooting and making cat calls. Terra dropped the girl's hand and turned to see what the ruckus was.
He was so not expecting the sight he got.
Did I do that? Aqua thought with a smug smirk as Terra dropped the girl's hand and looked over at her. Aqua kept her eyes fixed on a spot in the distance, figuring the effect would work better if she acted like she never even noticed he was there.
Aqua stood up and leaned across the table, her low cut shirt dipping slightly. She revealed some cleavage, but left much to the imagination. Better to tease them and make the beg than to give it away.
Aqua thought of what her master would say. Surely he would be disappointed in her behavior, for it was very unlike her. She would never in a million years be acting so promiscuous. Unless she was trying to make Terra jealous. Which, at the moment, was exactly what she was trying to do.
In the dim candle light, Aqua whispered something in a blonde boy's ear, which promptly turned red. Terra turned red, too, but for another reason entirely.
Loudly, Aqua breathed, "Let's go somewhere a little more private, shall we?" The boy stood up and nodded, accompanying her to the door. She sashayed while she moved, her hips twitching. She didn't plan on doing anything, just flirting with the boy a bit. Aqua hoped to high Heaven that Terra would come after her.
"Wow, could she be any more trashy?" Terra's date asked, bringing him out of his reverie. He shook his head, clearing it of thought.
"She's not trashy," Terra stated bluntly. He wasn't trying to offend his date, he was only sticking up for his friend. His very beautiful, mini skirt wearing, head turning friend. Yeah, her.
Flipping her hair over her shoulder, the girl cried, "That's only because you were enjoying the view! Could you have ogled her any more than you did?"
And with that, the girl stood up and slapped Terra across the face, stunning him. She stormed towards the door, but Terra called, "I'll tell my sister you said that."
The girl froze. "That -that girl was your sister?"
Terra nodded. So what if it was a lie? She might as well have been, and teasing his date was beginning to seem like fun idea.
"Oh… Did I say trashy? I - I meant lovely!"
Terra deadpanned. "Really? That's funny. I distinctly heard trashy, and I remember you saying something about me staring? Care to enlighten me?"
The girl's face flushed the color of roses, and she stammered, "I have to go. I need to get home."
Terra almost sighed in relief when the girl walked out. Glancing at his watch, he thought It's not too late to catch a movie. First, though, I need to find Aqua and tell her to put some clothes on!
Aqua giggled, leaning incredibly close to the blonde that was standing next to her. She caressed his chin, mumbling something about how adorable he was. Inwardly, she gagged.
The boy grinned. "You're hot," he stated.
She narrowed her eyes. What was it with boys and calling girls hot? Did they not realize that that did not qualify as a compliment?
"Yeah, and I think you're stupid." Aqua turned on her heel and strutted away, leaving a very confused boy to stare after her retreating form.
Seconds later, he had caught up to her. "Hey!"
Aqua ignored him, her eyes on the distant streetlight. The boy's face darkened as he gripped her arm, swinging her around to face him. "Did you hear me, bitch? I'm talking to you!"
Aqua growled and yanked her arm away. "I heard you, but I don't speak asshole, so I guess you're going to have to find another date."
The man snarled, slapping Aqua across her left cheek. Her eyes flashed red, and her voice dipped dangerously. "You shouldn't hit a girl."
The man laughed darkly. "I think I just did."
That was it! Aqua had had enough of boys and men treating girls like dirt! She spat in the blonde's face and uppercut him, leaving a red mark on him. He staggered backward, rubbing his face.
"Damn-"
"Hey!" a voice called. Aqua spun around, and so did her offender. She smiled in delight at the face of the teen that had come to find her. "What did you say to her?"
The man chuckled viciously and spat, "I called her a bitch. What are you gonna do about-"
Terra planted his fist right in the man's mouth, doing as much damage to the mouth as he did his knuckles. The blonde backed up, feeling around the damage. Terra had cracked a couple teeth - some of which had lodged themselves in Terra's fist - and busted the man's lip open. The guy snarled.
"Who are you, the girl's father?"
Terra sneered, "No, I'm her boyfriend, and you've royally pissed me off."
Aqua raised her eyebrows. Since when was Terra her boyfriend? Oh well, it was effective enough on her pursuer, causing him to back up with his hands palm up.
As if having to get the last word in, the boy said, "Sure, okay buddy. But maybe you should put a leash on her. Or maybe some clothes-"
Terra swung at the man again, catching him in his eye. Finally getting a clue, the guy took off running into the night, leaving Terra and Aqua alone. Terra was heaving heavily, anger apparent on his features.
"Did he hurt you-"
"GIRLFRIEND?"
Aqua froze. It was what she might have asked, and for a second she thought she had. But that voice had definitely not belonged to her.
Terra groaned and slapped his forehead, the curvy figure of a girl appearing behind him, hands on her petite hips. "What the hell happened to sister?"
Aqua crossed her arms. "You told her I was your sister!"
Terra moaned and sat down on a bench, throwing an arm across his eyes. "Look, I only told the man I was her boyfriend because I knew it would get him to leave us alone."
"Oh?" Aqua asked. "But you told her I was your sister."
Terra peaked through his fingers at both of the fuming girls. "… You… might as well be?" He asked it more than said it, and that threw Aqua into a rage.
"Fine! You are such an insensitive-"
"Uncaring," the other girl cried.
"Disillusioned," Aqua added.
"Heartbreaking-" Terra's ex date screeched.
"WOMANIZER!" the girls cried together, effectively causing Terra's ears to bleed. He groaned again, and threw his hands to the sky.
"WHY CAN I NEVER WIN!"
Poor little Terra. He just can't control his mouth. Or his girl's ;)
