Moments

Disclaimer: I don't own any of the FFXIII characters, and if I did, Serah would not be Snow's fiancée! Also, since I know very little of the actual story, I apologize for any inaccuracies that exist, but it's fanfiction, so it's ok, right?

Jealousy

Snow was walking alone along a bustling street market. Despite the heavy crowd, he had little trouble navigating his way around since he towered over most people.

He didn't really know what he was doing out here since he didn't have any Gil to spend. Lightning was in charge of the money, on top of everything else, and she refused to give him any during their stop in this town since she knew he'd waste it on something stupid.

He furrowed his eyebrows in annoyance as he recalled that moment. He sighed and decided to go back to the INN and wait for the others to come back.

As he was slowly making his way through the crowd, he spotted a pink-haired woman he knew all too well. She appeared to be making purchases for their medicinal stock. He decided to annoy her, but as he approached her at the stand, he realized that some guy was already standing next to her.

He was about Lightning's height, maybe slightly taller. He was lean, yet muscular, and a brunette with a short and spiky haircut. And to top it off he was clean shaven, and very well dressed. The type ladies would call handsome.

Lightning was concentrating on haggling, and paid no attention to the man trying to flirt with her. As she paid for the goods and gathered up the supplies, the man stopped her from leaving. He grabbed her arm as he tried to put best his moves on her. They weren't working, but she was growing increasingly annoyed with the little shenanigans he was trying to pull. She considered taking out her gun blade in order to scare him away.

He didn't understand why, but as he watched this little scene, something about it was really pissing Snow off. "Tch!"

He quickly walked up to the stand, stopping directly behind Lightning, and he placed a hand on her shoulder. She glanced behind to see who it was.

"Hey, Light. What's going on? You alright here?" Snow asked as he glared at the guy who had been hitting on her.

He seemed to get the hint and let go of her arm. He blurted out a "sorry" as he disappeared into the crowd.

"What was that for? I can take care of myself, you know." Lightning asked, annoyed.

"A simple "thank you" would suffice here. And besides, I was just looking out for you, that guy was sleazy anyway."

She rolled her eyes. "Whatever. I guess there is one good reason you showed up, though."

Snow looked behind him, and asked. "Yeah? What's that?"

"Now there's someone to carry all this stuff." Lightning dumped all of the supplies into Snow's arms, and she began walking back to the INN.

Snow smirked, and quickly followed after her.

I can never win against you, can I?

Note: I just love stories that involve the boy getting jealous over the girl, so I wrote one!
