Okay after I posted this I read it over a few times and along with some from ChibiSess I fixed a few errors. In the next few weeks I'm going to be fixing some mistakes here and there. I know my punctuation is rotten. It's kinda sad in all of my English courses over the years I always got the same thing "you're stories are great but you grammar and such need work"

Just when I think I got every mistake I post it and find a dozen more that I miss. Anywho enjoy, I must be on a roll, two updates, in two of my stories in only a few days. Being sick and not going out makes you really get things done! I hope you enjoy it, (at least I'm sure the female Legato lovers should, I know I got a giggle or two while writing it.) Things should get interesting in the next few chapters.

Legato had been waiting at their meeting place for over an hour. Lydia was still nowhere to be found. He kicked a rock far into the distance.

"To think she made a big deal of talking and it turns out she's the one that's late." he grumbled to himself.

He was tired of pitching rocks, he sat down, his back leaning against a large boulder. Rummaging through his pockets he pulled out the squashed tin from the night before. That morning when he woke up he had thought the whole thing had been a dream. But there; on his night stand it sat, a testament to what had happened the day before.

He didn't dare tell his mother what had happened, he himself wasn't one hundred percent sure it actually had happened.

He remembered Lydia's shocked expression as globs of butter trickled down her face. He grumbled again as his head sunk onto his knees. What was he supposed to tell her? He knew she was expecting an answer, but he wanted them as well!

His watch beeped, letting him know that a half an hour had just ticked by. Where was she?

He held up the ball of metal to eye level. He wondered if he could he do it again if he tried? He shut his eyes and took a deep breath, concentrating on the ball as hard as he could. He opened his eyes hoping to find the metal changed, but it hadn't.

He shook his head in disappointment. How did he manage it? Maybe he had nothing to do with it at all, maybe it was just a fluke, maybe it was someone else?

No it had to of been him, he could actually feel the metal pulling apart yesterday as it burst.

No he had definitely cause it.

But how?

Forgetting Lydia's tardiness he struggled a few more minutes with the metal. But still it laid in his hand, unchanged. He was beginning to get frustrated.

"Fine then, don't move just sit there!" he snapped angrily.

That was when a small chunk of the metal twisted, and swirled slightly.

His mouth dropped.

Had that just happened? He inspected the ball closely, sure enough a small twirl of metal had poked itself away from the twisted mass. He stood up gleefully, he hadn't been going mad, he had done it all! He figured that must be reacting to his emotions. He focused his happiness on the metal ball and almost shouted with joy as it shivered and swirled, several metal tendrils now poked out on all sides.

His fear of what happened the day before melted away. This was not some strange freakish thing he had acquired. This really was a gift.

He admired the ball proudly, not noticing Lydia was right behind him.

"Legato?"

He spun around while quickly whipping the still shivering metal behind his back, "hi Lydia."

She cocked an eyebrow at him, "you all right?" she asked.

He felt the metal give another shudder, "Uh yeah fine, listen something just came up." he said with a smile.

"Yeah but we were supposed to-"

"Talk yeah I know," he said feigning disappointed, " can we do it in a few days maybe?"

Lydia shook her head in disbelief, " A few days? Legato I-"

He didn't have time to argue about it, drastic measures were needed! He did the first thing that came to him. He quickly encircled her in his arms, giving her a long deep kiss. She at first tried to wiggle out of his embrace, but he only held her tighter and kissed her longer. Legato finally felt her relax. His lips parted from hers and he watched as she smiled at him dreamily. He gave her a intense look that sent goose bumps rippling across her arms.

"Just a few days, it's really important. Please do this for me." he cooed.

She gave a quiet sigh as she watched a bit of his blue hair fall in front of his golden eyes. How could she refuse him when he looked like that?

Lydia; having been completed taken off her guard, gave him a goofy nod, "sure," she answered dreamily.

"Thanks."

He went to leave, but she caught his hand, "you're not going to kiss me goodbye?"

Legato laughed to himself, pleased that his last minute distraction had worked so well. He was sure that after the kiss she was still going to be livid with him.

He quickly stuffed the metal, which was now pulsating wildly into his jacket pocket. He then drew her close to him and gave her yet another deep kiss.

"This was all too easy." he said disbelievingly in his mind, "this really should not have worked."

He pulled away from her, both of them slightly wobbly in the knees. Legato took a deep breath.

"Meet me here three days from now." he said quietly to her.

She embraced him, hoping to keep him in the moment just a few seconds longer, "I'll be waiting." she whispered in his ear.

He gave her a smile and started to walk back home.

He pulled the metal out of his pocket, and watched it pulsate. He took a few more steps and turned around to catch a glimpse of Lydia, she was heavy-eyes and still standing cemented in place.

"I better remember that trick next time." he said to himself.

I hope you enjoyed it! I know I did! Look for more to come, meanwhile I'm off to sleep this cold I have away. Lemme know what you think! I have an idea for part of the next chapter but I'm debating it because the fluff factor might be too high (and we all no too much fluff kills). I dunno I'll have to see.
