The Keeper of Worlds: Good to know. I personally liked that one too.
Okay, I'm feeling a little better, stepped away from my one-shots, took a breather, ate some pizza, hugged my dog and I am really to start writing again. My next break for these will be the week of the tenth. Sorry, but I've said it before and I'll say it again, I'm going to be taking a break from these at least once a month to keep from having a burnout. Anyway…here's…something? Enjoy.
Saito walked down the hall with his head down and he sighed, "What's wrong partner?" he heard his trusted companion Derfflinger speak from behind him, "You seem to be down in the dumps lately. What's on your mind?"
"Louise has been…different lately and I was worried that it was something involving the-"
"Darling," Saito's eyes widened before he looked back to see the redheaded beauty, Kirche, walking up behind him, "What's wrong? You seem lost. Why don't you tell Kirche all about it an-"
"N-no…I need to get to Louise an-" before he could finish, Kirche threw her arms around his neck and pressed her lips against his, surprising the black-haired young man.
The two separated and Saito looked back to see Louise staring at them before she hung her head and walked away from the two, "Louise wait!" he pushed Kirche off of him and chased after Louise.
Turning the corner, Saito fell back and grunted, "Damn,"
"Ouch," looking up, his eyes widened when he saw Siesta sitting in front of him, rubbing her lower back, "That hurt,"
"Siesta," Siesta looked up as Saito stood up and held his hand out to her, "I'm sorry, I wasn't paying attention…I'm trying to find Louise an-"
"But why would you be looking for someone who treats you like a dog?" Siesta smiled, wrapping her arms around his neck as she leaned closer to him, "You deserve someone who treats you better, Saito, and that someone is me,"
Saito looked up and saw Louise walking into her room and his eyes widened, "Louise!" pushing past Siesta, Saito ran down the hall.
Stepping into the room, he was met with Louise, staring at him, a whip in one hand and her wand in the other. She looked up, a look of anger crossing her face, "So, you want to be punished, you stupid dog?" Saito inhaled slowly and stood his ground, "Answer me!"
"You can whip me, cast Explosion and starve me to near death, but at least hear what I have to say before you doing any of that," Louise's eyes widened at the serious tone in Saito's voice, "I went to go ask Montmon if there were any lingering side effects from the aphrodisiac because when you…were under the effect of it, it was both sweet because you were cute…not saying you're not cute now, you are but…but it was also concerning because I never seen you act like that and I was worried that you might slip into that state again, or worse, but Montmon assured me that there were not effects.
I thanked her and walked away and was talking to Derf for a bit before Kirche and before I had a chance to react, she kissed me. I tried to follow you and bumped into Siesta and she was…acting like Siesta…and I got away from her and now I'm here,"
"You…you're lying, you just want to avoid being punished an-"
"What do I have to gain out of lying to you?" Saito demanded, "If you don't believe me, ask Derf, hell you can even ask Montmon, she can verify that I was talking to her earlier,"
Louise stared at him for a second before taking a deep breath and frowned, "Is it true? Did he go and talk to Montmorency and then Kirche approached him as he said?"
"It is," Derfflinger said, "Partner must've asked her about twenty times for some reassurance. When we were coming back, I asked him what was wrong and he was going to tell me when that redhead mage approached partner,"
Saito frowned as Louise turned her back towards him, "Then…then I forgive you, Saito," Saito sighed as he stepped closer to the pinkette, "I suppose I should start listening to both sides of the story before I punish you fo-" before she could finish, Saito wrapped his arms around her, surprising her, "W-what…what the hell do you think you're doing?"
"I'm just glad you're back to normal, Louise," Saito slightly smiled, "I missed this side of you," Louise's eyes widened as her cheeks turned a light shade of pink and she looked away.
Two things, one, I was going to have this one-shot be a lemon, but I'll save that for Wednesday or Friday and two, I had something else planned, but this sort of came to me and I had to get it out and that will be out some time this week. As ways enjoy.
