"Hon, don't forget to close the door!" Mother yelled.
Callypso closed the door and tripped. She could feel her face getting hot and red and her mind start boggling. She tripped over a shield on the ground. Huh? Mother didn't use a shield, and Father didn't either, neither did Mariasta...
"MARIASTA! TELL YOUR LIL' BANGAA BOY TO PICK UP HIS LIDS!" she hollered.
Her little sister and her best friend peeped out from the rafters above. Callypso walked back, tripped over it again, and ran straight into Mulgio's tail.
Mariasta slid down a long wooden beam and picked it up. "It's my shield! Mulgio gave it to me!" Mariasta exclaimed happily, huggling it.
Callypso nodded, not hearing, and collapsed into the seat. A basket of fruit clattered to the wooden floor.
Mother's eyes widened. "Hon, what's wrong? Why, you're burning up- Hey! That's not fever!"
Mariasta knew well what it was. Mulgio, not understanding it, shook his head. "What'sss going on?"
Mariasta giggled. "Callypso's in L-O-V-E!"
Gukko sighed. They were walking down the Town Square now, close to home.
"Still thinking about her?" Raven asked.
Gukko nodded dumbly.
"You heard what they say."
"Raven, do you think I'm good-looking?"
Raven considered. "Well, I'm no judge of that. I can hardly tell a pretty girl from an Alchemist!" He sobered. "But everyone says you're a pretty boy."
"Do you think Callypso..."
"Likes you?" Raven grinned. "I think she has the hots for you!"
Gukko scowled. "You're just trying to make me feel better."
"Really! Gukko and Callypso, sitting-" Raven began to sing when the front door burst upon. They were home.
"What was that you said about K-I-S-S-I-N-G?" Saki asked innocently.
Heya! Well, Hazard, I don't update so fast. I make a store of chapters and Aria, who has basically all electives this time around, controls the flow of them.
