Staring into the Darkness
--A/n: Wow! Its been so long. I'm really sorry. I've been really busy, but now, I'm finally getting it together! Please review to encourage me more! Haha.--
Disclaimer: OOhhh. Nothing is owned by me. Isn't that new?
It was noon when Vyse and his Air Pirates boarded their ship.
Vyse was excited, as he always was when he went out.
Vyse found being out exhilarating, the treasure hunting, the search, the black pirates, it just made his heart pound.
There was nothing better than sailing to him. He had the blood of his father, Air Pirates blood.
Without sailing, Vyse would be nothing, simply a young man without a dream. But sailing had helped him reach his dreams. Because he would go where the wind would take him. It took him to Fina.
Fina...She was really pretty. He cared so much about her. He didn't know what he'd do if he lost her. He knew he couldn't deny it. He loved her.
He loved Fina.
He hoped, so badly, that her feelings were the same. Infact, he wanted to ask her out, but was just to embarrassed. He needed help. How should he ask her? Where should they go?
But that's where Vyse was lucky.
As anyone who knew the young captain, he was a very lucky young man.
He always had luck on his side, be him fighting, stealing or in this case, dating.
Leaving the ship to Kirala, who had learned to act as all the crew, ever sense their crew disbanded, he set of this find his friend. He had an idea where she was. The Mess Hall, or the Deck.
Vyse walked to the Mess hall, but it was completely empty, so turning, he walked to the deck and stepped out.
"Aika?"
The pigtailed girl turned to her friend and smiled. "Hey Vyse! How come your not driving?"
"I wanted to talk to you." He approached her and leaned against the railing beside her, and smiled nervously.
"Well? What is it?" Aika laughed, knowing her friend was waiting for her to say something.
"Well...Its about Fina."
Aika felt a stab of something. She didn't want to place it.
"What about Fina?"
"Well....I wanna ask her out." Vyse blushed, he couldn't believe he was telling his friend this, but, he really needed some help!
Aika felt the feeling stab her again, but again she left it alone.
"Really?" She kept her voice at its usual, cheery and hyper. She didn't want Vyse to suspect anything.
"Yeah. I just...I'm not sure how to go about it, you know?"
"Yeah."
"I mean.." He continued.
"Should I just...ask her? And where should I take her? I mean...I don't know! Your a girl Aika, what do you think?"
'I think You should leave Fina alone'. It was said in her mind, and she knew he couldn't hear it. He was to naive.
"Well....Fina's really special, so you should come up to her real nice, you know?"
He nodded, listening to every word.
"Then ask her to go somewhere with you. Then, when she says yes.."
"What if she doesn't say yes?"
"She will trust me."
Aika knew she would. That feeling came back, and again she dismissed it.
"Ok.."
"Well, then you take her somewhere really romantic."
"I get it! Like Gordo's Bistro?"
Aika couldn't believe...of all the things..
"No, Not Gordo's Bistro! That's not very romantic Vyse!"
Vyse flinched. "Sorry! Sorry!"
Aika sighed, in annoyance.
"No, take her like...to Yafutoma. Or to the nice island near Pirate Isle, you know? And sit and have a nice moonlit dinner with her or something. Just be generally romantic."
Vyse nodded. "You sure that will work?"
"Positive!" Aika said, and cringed. She sounded so fake right then.
"Thanks Aika!" Vyse grinned. "I have a good idea. Your the best friend I ever had!" He hugged her, and she hugged back. A fake smile on her face.
"Yeah...Glad I could help."
Vyse flashed her his lucky grin and headed in, and Aika sighed, turning to look into the darkness of deep sky.
The feeling creped back, slowly, then she couldn't deny it. She knew the feeling.
It was jealousy.
