Fabula Amore 3
:: No Such Thing as a Love Doctor ::
Gatrie and Lyre sat across each other at an outdoor restaurant surrounded by trees and shimmering lights. It was such a beautiful night. Beautiful for anything sweet and romantic.
Lyre was staring coldly at Gatrie. Gatrie looked extremely nervous. He looked around to see who Lyre was staring at. Apparently no one, but him. He chuckled uneasily, "This is nice." He said.
Lyre kept on staring. Her eyes were red and fierce, like a cat ready to strike.
Gatrie looked behind him and around the restaurant, tensing, "Where is that waiter?"
"We haven't ordered it yet y'know?" Lyre sounded like hissing.
Gatrie stammered, "I…I know. I'm just looking for the waiter to make our special order… are you okay?"
Lyre's eyes went wide suddenly. Gatrie moved his chair a bit, standing guard, "I… I was just asking…"
Lyre shook her head and her eyes went back to normal, "Oh… I'm sorry Gatrie. I'm just…"
Gatrie lowered his guard, "No, it's fine. Are you okay, really?"
"I'm fine." Lyre said, blinking a couple of times to clear the feral vision off her, "I don't know what is wrong with me. Anyway…" she looked up to Gatrie and smiled, "…back to business."
"Good then. We should order our dinner." Gatrie pulled out the menu list, "what would you like? They have lamb-o-wisp, that's like lamb with some veggies on the side; they have sweet potatoes surprise, I don't know what the surprise is… oh! They have pheasant with raspberry sauce! Or salmon!"
"I like salmon." Lyre licked her lips, "And I like you."
Gatrie briefly stared at Lyre. Shinon was watching them twelve feet from their table, perched on a branch among the trees leaves.
"Perfect. The formula's kicking." Shinon grinned.
"Great!" Gatrie said, "We'll order."
"Before we do, kiss me." Lyre said, her eyes back to Feral Mode. Gatrie briefly looked around to see if no one was watching.
"Are you sure you're okay?" Gatrie asked her, concerned.
"Of course I'm okay! I said KISS ME you fool!" Lyre grabbed on Gatrie's shirt and leaned over to him for a kiss. But Gatrie shied away.
"Oh… ow. You're hurting me." Gatrie winced in pain of Lyre's claws dug in through his skin.
"Well, what can you do about it, meathead?" Lyre pictured Gatrie as an actual meat. Her smile revealed the sharp tooth of a predator ready to strike.
"Lyre… wait! Whoa! No!"
Before Gatrie knew it, Lyre pounced and went Feral One on him; with the entire restaurant and Shinon watching. Lyre was clawing and ripping and chewing on Gatrie who was screaming for his dear life that was soon-to-be over if no one interfered.
xXx
Shinon saw Gatrie the next day, coming out of his bedroom with his shirt and pants all torn up. He looked like he saw a ghost. And that was good news for Shinon.
"Gatrie." Shinon grinned, "Sleep much?"
Gatrie was silent. But that didn't bother Shinon. He went on, "Soo, how was the date?"
"…like nothing I've ever seen before…" Gatrie mumbled, "Lyre was… she was…" he stammered, "v…v…v…violent!"
"Oh?" Shinon tried not to pull up his biggest smile yet.
"She was clawing, and ripping, and tearing me apart during dinner… I didn't even ordered yet and she was an animal."
"What do you expect? She's a Laguz."
Gatrie's frightening eyes fixated on Shinon. "She almost killed me!" he then spread out a big smile, "and I loved it!"
Shinon's mischievous grin disappeared, "Huh?"
"She was AWESOME! The clawing, the ripping, the tearing me apart thing… I gotta tell you Shinon, it was THRILLING! It was HOT!!"
"But she…" Shinon stammered, "She almost KILLED you!"
"Please!" Gatrie threw a hand in dismissal, "I love a girl who can kiss good, and rip a head off a body at the same time! And the best part is…" he leaned to whisper at Shinon, "…we took it to a whole new level in bed!"
Shinon almost threw up.
"Man, Shinon! I never had such passions like that in my entire life!"
Gatrie took his leave, leaving Shinon stunned. Soren (Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn) approached him, "May I ask what this is all about?"
Shinon glared at Soren, "None of your business!"
FABULA AMORE 2
:: No Such Thing as a Love Doctor ::
Your Highness. His Lord, Hector of Ostia, is here." said the majordomo back at Castle Crimea's Ballroom.
Elincia looked surprised, "Hector? What a surprise. I wasn't expecting him."
"You weren't?" the majordomo said, "But Your Highness wrote a special invitation in the form of a Ballroom invite to meet with his Lord here in private after the sun has set."
"In private?" Elincia looked more confused than before, "I didn't—!"
Before Elincia could finish, Hector appeared in the ballroom and all of the sudden, the lights dimmed. The majordomo raised his brow twice at the Queen, giving her the signal that her plan is working. Elincia immediately knew what was happening.
"Wh—HEY!" she yelped.
"What's going on here?" Hector asked, peering nervously across the dimmed ballroom, "Where is everybody? I thought you were hosting a ball?"
"I'm not hosting ANY balls!" Elincia snapped.
"Then… what are… oh!" Hector noticed a spotlight in the middle of the ballroom, flashing over a table for two, with a shiny rose in the middle and setup silverwares, "Wait a minute!"
Elincia noticed the setting too. Her face blushed.
"You're…!" Hector tried to speak.
"I'm not setting you up on ANYTHING!" Elincia ran to the table and tried to knock it down, but the table disappeared in a flash, only to reappear in a corner of the ballroom. Elincia went after the table, but the table kept disappearing whenever she got close to it.
"I'm—there's… there's been…!"
The table reappeared next to Hector. Hector saw a picture of him on the table, and looked up to see Elincia, surprised. Elincia turned red.
"THERE'S NOTHING… GOING ON… BETWEEN US!!!" she screamed before snatching the picture of Hector from Hector's hands.
"This whole thing was NOT planned! This whole this is a setup! I'VE BEEN SETUP! I—!" Elincia stopped talking. She slowly turned to look at Hector for a moment.
"Hey, you look cute." Elincia smiled.
Hector smiled haughtily, "Really? You like the new me?"
"Yeah…" Elincia then shook her head, snapping out of reality, "…well, cute as in nicely dressed, not cute as in I'm totally coming on to you. That is wrong. We don't have each other."
Hector scoffed, "Pssht! Yeah! We so are wrong for one another."
Elincia and Hector nervously giggled, unaware that Mist and Mia were watching from the ballroom balcony.
"Aww… they're laughing together." Mist cooed.
"I know." Mia said, "Our little matchmaking made in heaven is working. And nothing is gonna come across that."
Hector and Elincia looked into each other's eyes a minute after having a good laugh. Coyly, they sat down across each other at their table. They continued to stare for a minute, and just when they were about to lean in for a kiss, Ike popped out of nowhere between them, startling Elincia and Hector. Mist and Mia looked surprised also. And Ike wasn't alone: Farina was there with him too. Looking sexy, back to her youthful image from Merric's potion.
"Queen Elincia!" Ike exclaimed, "Surprised to see you here!"
"Ike!" Elincia squealed.
"What are you doing here?" Hector exclaimed, before facing Farina, "And… uhh…" he was loss with words at Farina's transformation, "Whoa… I…"
"Whoa, loss of words aren't ye, milord?" Ike grinned at Hector, "It's so shocking to see the girl that you were supposed to have lunch with, been dumped by the queen you barely know without her knowledge. What do you call that huh? Two-timing?"
"I would." Farina angrily said, crossing her arms.
Hector quickly stood up, "I… I can explain!" he stammered.
Suddenly the balcony doors swung open in a massive blow, catching everyone's attention; and Mia and Mist stormed into the ballroom. Mist turned the lights back on.
"HEY! What's the big idea Ike?!" Mia screamed.
"So you were in on this?" Hector questioned the girls.
"Uh… yeah?! Pssht." Mist said sarcastically. Mia punched her hard on the shoulder, "HEY!" Mist whined.
"The number one rule of matchmaking: do NOT reveal your identity!"
"You did all of this? Mist! Mia! How could you?" Elincia scolded the two girls.
"Yeah! How could you?" Ike scolded as well, before facing Mist, "And you too?"
"But Queen Elincia, you and Hector are meant to be! We can see it in your eyes." Mist said and immediately Elincia blushed.
"What?" Farina exclaimed before facing Hector, "Do you feel that way too?"
Hector stammered. "I… I… I… Wait a minute! No! I don't feel that way!"
GASSSP!!
Everyone held their breaths in response to Hector's words. Mist and Mia stood still, before turning their attention to Elincia who was shedding tears. Ike saw she was hurting, and Farina immediately felt pity. Hector too stood still.
"W…well… what I meant was… that I… I was going to meet…"
Hector didn't finish and Elincia left the ballroom in tears. Someone opened the door for her and it was Lucia. She saw her Majesty leaving the ballroom and looked concerned, "Your Majesty…?" She then faced the silent group, and didn't hesitate to go after the queen to see what was wrong.
Hector let out a heavy sigh of regret. He shouldn't have said that.
"Boy, did you blow a trumpet." Mia muttered.
Hector coldly glared at Mist and Mia.
"You know what—?"
"I'll handle this." Ike interrupted Hector, "You go after the Queen."
Hector then faced Farina, who gave him a nod of approval.
Ike went on disappointedly, "I guess she needs you more than me."
Mist and Mia faced Ike in surprise, "Wait, you were crushing on Elincia?" Mist asked.
"Then who was Lord Hector crushing on?" Mia wondered.
"Umm… Hello?" Farina waved her hand to the girls, hoping to get their attention, and their answer.
"May I help you?" dumb Mia asked Farina. Farina stood there, jaw-dropped.
"Okay, you know what?!" Ike angrily dragged the two girls out of the ballroom, "let's go!
