*******I DO NOT OWN SoA OR ANY OF THE CHARACTERS*******

Vyse stood outside Aika's door with the letter in his hand. He was shaking a bit, and kept taking long deep, breaths to calm himself down. "Come on Vyse, it's just a letter, and it's just Aika…" he said to himself. But it was more than a letter. It was a confession. A confession of his devotion for her. He would do anything for that red headed pirate. Anything. And it wasn't just Aika, it was the girl he had known all his life. The girl who he played with everyday. Aika was the first thing he saw when he woke up in the morning, and the last thing he thought about before he slept at night. Taking a huge breath, he slid the letter under her door, and softly knocked twice before bolting away.

When he had stopped running he was a good 100 yards away, and her peeked from a behind the wall of a house to watch.

"Uh, Vyse?" It was Fina.

"Yeah Fina?"

"What was that you slid underneath Aika's door?" She a had a sly tone to her voice.

"Well, um, it was just a letter, that's all…"

"Oh. You mean you finally wrote her the letter telling her how much you love her??" Fina began to giggle, which soon turned into laughter.

"What? I do not love her… I… uh…" Vyse's face turned beet red.

"Vyse everyone knows you love Aika! Do her a favor and let her know. It's not just her parents she's missing, she's also missing you."

Vyse though for a moment. He had been really busy lately, and every time Aika had come up to him he would be too busy to talk. Up until yesterday, he never knew Aika was hurting this much. He felt like such a jerk.

"Can't you see Vyse?" Fina continued, "All she wants is for you to comfort her, and tell her you'll never leave her side." And with that final sentence, Fina was gone.

"Thanks Fina." He whispered under his breath. Now all he had to do was get the balls to go talk to Aika. "It shouldn't be too hard, right?" He thought to himself. He began his walk to Aika's room.

When he reached the door, he took one last breath and placed his hand on the handle. Just before he had a chance to turn the knob, the door swung open and he fell forward onto a screaming Aika.

"VYSE! YOU SCARED ME HALF TO DEA---!" She screamed, but was cut short by glancing at the position they were in. Vyse was head first in her breasts, with his hands on her waist, and her legs were wrapped around him. She gasped and Vyse, who had also noticed their position, quickly jumped up and apologized.

"Oh my gosh I am soo sorry Aika. It's not what it looked like, I just fell down and I had no intention of landing like that or anything I am soooo sorry, so incredibly sorry…" His face was beet red. He stuck out his hand and pulled her up. Aika brushed herself off and sat on her bed, while Vyse continued to apologize.

"Vyse, it's okay. I'm glad you came, I've been needing someone to talk to… and right now, at this moment, you are the perfect one."
