A Hundred of His Darkest Hours

They were in the Castle of Dreams, and he was hiding in the shadows, as always.

And he saw the look on Aqua's face, as she was taken aback by Princess Cinderella's beauty.

When she was done with her duties, she stepped outside so she could leave, and go elsewhere.

But he stopped her outside.

"Leaving so soon?" Vanitas teased.

Aqua summoned her Keyblade. "What do you want?"

"I just wanted to bask in the beauty of a Princess, that's all…" He smirked.

Aqua turned around, lifting an eyebrow.

"I just did. My job here is done." And then he disappeared, leaving Aqua blushing.
