The whole trio had decided to take a trip downtown, as they were feeling like finding a place to eat, finally settling on a nearby food chain. The others had told Zid to stay outside while they ordered, to which Zid agreed.
While they were gone, Zid looked around, trying to spot anyone he could mess with for the time being. Eventually, he spotted a girl sitting on a concrete bench, holding a sandwich in her paws and licking her lips.
Zid developed a sinister grin as he began to think to himself. "Heh… It's a girl, I've heard they're easier to scare~" He then silently crept up to the girl, who was cluelessly munching on a sandwich.
"HEY!" he barked, causing her to shake a bit while looking up to him. He had expected her to cower in fear as most did, but she just… looked up at him with a smile and waved. It was in that moment that Zid felt a… feeling inside himself that he had never felt before. It was almost like there were butterflies in his stomach.
"Hello there, sir~!" The small female said happily, despite Zid's intimidating nature. "What do you want?"
Zid shook off this feeling he had in him, putting back on his tough mask. "Gimme that sandwich, you shrimp! Before I have to pry it out of those damn hands of yours~"
Unlike what he expected, the girl acceptingly reached out her hand, offering him the sandwich, to which it was snatched out. "Thanks, you cootie," Zid said rather rudely, trying his best to hide his faint blushing. He sat down next to the girl, looking away as much as he could in hopes to not interact with her, all while aggressively consuming the sandwich.
He began to have many thoughts then and there.
What was this feeling he had just now? Why did he feel so warm inside, all by a random girl he had just seen a couple seconds ago? And most importantly…
Was this a good thing?
