Crush-

By Old Fiat

Chapter 1; realizing-

Thatz walked quickly down the hall, he was already late on this report! Alfeegi is gonna be mad. Thought Thatz, running now.

WHAM! CRASH!

"Oh shoot," said Thatz picking up his papers. He looked up at the person he had rammed into. "Sorry…" Thatz's sentence trailed off.

"You idiot! Now my dress is all crushed!" yelled Kitchel looking more beautiful then Thatz had ever seen her.

Kitchel's hair had been braided and had little ruby beads on the ends and had been pulled up at the back. Her dress came to about mid thigh and was sewn out of red silk. But it wasn't either of those things, it was that sense pride she had around her, and she looked- pretty!

""Do you know Rune is?" asked Kitchel, brushing dust of the silk.

"Uh-"

Kitchel kicked Thatz with her stilettos. "Well?"

"I-I-" Thatz blushed. Why am I blushing? I HATE KITCHEL! So why was he blushing? "I think Rune's in his room."

"'Kay!" Kitchel ran off.

"Jeez," Thatz said to himself leaning against the wall and siding to the floor. "Kitchel's talked to you at least a million times. What happened? I hate Kitchel. Don't I? I'm acting like Rath when you ask him about Cesia." Thatz sat up. "Oh my God. Do I like Kitchel?"

Someone snickered.

Thatz turned around; he had assumed he was alone.

Ruwalk stepped out from behind the corner. "Just what I was wondering."

"Ruwalk," said Thatz into his hands. "Are you always watching me?"

"Alfeegi." said Ruwalk. "Any way, do you like Kitchel?"

"I don't know. How do you tell if you like someone?" asked Thatz, looking up at Ruwalk.

"Well," said Ruwalk, sitting Indian style on the floor. "You stutter and blush every time the object of your affection talks to you."

"Check," said Thatz, sighing. "Wait," Thatz pointed at finger at Ruwalk. "How do you know this?"

"I watched Lykouleon when he first met Raseleane." said Ruwalk blushing and turning away. "And it doesn't matter."

"Yes it does." said Thatz. "Who did you like?"

"Fine," sighed Ruwalk. "Cernozura."

"But- why?"

"She was hot then and still is."

"You mean you still like her?"

"Yes," said Ruwalk not hearing the footsteps. "I wish I had told her."

"Hi!" said Lykouleon appearing on the scene.

"LYKOULEON!"

"YOUR HIGHNESS!"

"So what's going on?" asked Lykouleon also sitting down on his small booted feet.

"Thatz likes Kitchel," said Ruwalk.

Fine I'll play my own trump card. Thought Thatz.

"And Ruwalk likes Cernozura." said Thatz watching Ruwalk's face turn pink.

"Oooooohhh. I knew it," said Lykouleon happily.

"You did?" asked Ruwalk his pink face turning red.

"Yup," said Lykouleon. "Always knew."

"WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME!" yelled Ruwalk looking angry.

"You looked so funny. Remember when I pushed you towards her at that dance? And two had to dance together?" laughed Lykouleon.

"I was normally a pretty good dancer too, but when I danced with her I suddenly had two left feet." said Ruwalk, seeing the laughter in the situation but still looking mad.

"Um," Thatz was totally weired out by this situation. He remembered seeing Ruwalk at Rune and Tintlet's wedding, looking sadly at Cernozura. Thatz mentioned this.

"I saw her talking to Alfeegi in a way that made me never want to tell her how I felt." said Ruwalk, the words pouring out before he could stop them. "She never cared. Never. I couldn't stand it."

"So you became a bachelor," said Lykouleon, hugging his shaking best friend. "I see now."

"Well this isn't helping me." said Thatz and walked off.

Well did you like Chapter 1? RuwalkxCernozura. Hmmmm. Even I didn't see that coming!
