Just Get Together Already!
Two people walked towards each other in an empty hallway. Black mary janes clicked against the metal floor while converse padded softly towards them. A long white lab coat rustled against a dark sweater vest, a long black skirt brushing against pale ankles. Dark skinny jeans with green stitching accented a green T-Shirt and a leather jacket with a four on the back, forming an emerald shark. Chocolate eyes met icy blues. Tousled brown curls fell in a pale face while raven locks stood out against ivory skin.
"Ziggy," the young woman said curtly. The brown eyes registered shock before softening.
"'Lo Doc," he said quietly, slipping his hands into his pockets.
The two teens stood in an awkward silence.
"I read your diary," K said bluntly. Ziggy seemed to choke on air before turning red.
"I don't have a diary!" he cried. K raised a dark eyebrow.
"My mistake. I meant 'blog'." Ziggy glared at her half-heartedly.
"How'd you get it?" he growled. K's eyes narrowed.
"Gem," she said stiffly. Ziggy looked shocked.
"Gem and Gemma?" he said in disbelief.
"No, just Gem." she corrected.
"Funny enough," Ziggy said, pulling out a folded sheet of paper. "Gemma gave me this. So maybe it's not so bad that I've fallen for him." He gave the horrified K a pointed look. "So, y'love me?"
"Wha- I- how- when-" she spluttered. Ziggy smirked.
"I knew it," he said smugly, pocketing the paper. "I'm irresistable." K snapped out of her shock and glared at him.
"Of course you are," she hissed. "You're irresistable but once a girl gets to know you they leave because you're so arrogant." A strange gleam entered Ziggy's eyes.
"Really," he said silkily, advancing on her. Her back hit the wall as he planted an arm on either side of his head. "You seem proud yourself K. What with all those inventions of yours and digital projects you've been working on. Tell me, how'd you know you loved me?"
"Simple reasoning and recordings of my behavior and emotions around you." she said, leaning away from his face.
"Oden's beard!" a voice cried softly. "Just get together already!" Several other voices shushed him, though neither teen seemed to notice.
"Hmm," Ziggy said. He grinned and closed the distance between them, pressing his warm lips against her cold ones. When he pulled back, he resembled a Cheshire cat. "So, do I still taste like chocolate?"
