March 6th (Halfway through I accidentally started referring to Xaldin as a she. I fixed it though.)
Xaldin was always super duper deep and depressed on the inside. The only person he could ever truly relate to was Zexion. The two often sat in corners together making sobbing noises. A sophisticated hobby deeper then anybody else in the organization could ever understand. "Sobsobsobsobmalbgawdsobsbob" sobbed Xaldin. "" Zexion sobbed back. Xaldin knew that the whole world clearly all very dark and depressing, and that Zexion was his only shining light. What Xaldin didn't know was whether Zexion thought the same. He decided he would need to woo Zexion somehow.
He already knew that Zexion was far superior at writing poetry. So he decided his best option would be black roses. Now you may be thinking "But wait! Black roses don't exist! The only roses I've ever heard of Red roses and White roses!". And while that is true, if you know how, you can make whatever color roses you want. And you don't even need to be magical! Which you might find surprising since almost everything these days involves being magical. The first thing Xaldin would need was a vase. And he knew the best anything is always something you make yourself.
So Xaldin set out to make a vase. He went to a toy store and picked up a "4Realz Babiez" doll. He didn't need the body, So he removed the head and discarded the rest. He got some of his black lipstick out of his makeup drawer and applied it to the baby's lips. He also used it to turn the baby's eyes pitch black. He used his red eyeliner(Only true gothics have red eyeliner) to draw tears of blood on the baby's cheeks. He used his personal sandpaper to flatten the top of the baby's hollow head. His vase was complete! The next thing Xaldin needed was roses. White ones to be exact.
He slapped his face when he realized he could have picked them up while he got the baby head. He went out to the supermarket and picked up some white roses and food coloring. When he returned to the castle he filled the baby head with filtered water and placed it on his desk. The hollow baby head made a beautiful vase when flipped upside down. He used the food coloring he picked up to turn the water black as black can be. Then he cut of the ends of the roses and put them in the baby head. For the next few days he watched as the roses petals slowly blackened.
Until finally they were pitch black. He wrapped them in a bouquet and that night he approached Zexion's door. Knock knock knock he knocked. When Zexion opened the door he was surprised to find Xaldin presenting him with a bouquet of black roses. Zexion's face showed absolute indifference, which Xaldin knew meant he succeeded. Zexion took the bouquet and invited Xaldin into the room. They sat on Zexions bad together. "Sobsobsobsob" sobbed Zexion. "" Xaldin sobbed back. This is truly the most romantic they had ever been. You may not understand how this is them being in love. But that's because they're totally gothic.
