Author's note: These one-shots are done for the LiveJournal community 52flavours. Since the fandom lacks fanfiction to this wonderful series, I decided to try my hand at them. I was going to do Eclipse x Rein, but why not focus it on the infamous love square? There will be 52 chapters of course, and all couples will be one-sided. (I may intend on putting Eclipse x Rein, though.)

There also will be spoilers for those who haven't followed the series to where I am at now, so read at your own risk!


Serendipity
Theme #7 - Snow falling on corpses


She saw him staring at her from the corner of her eye. There was no mistakening the dark shade of his trenchcoat, nor the deep blue eyes with the icy glare. The wind and snow ruffled his coat, and he seemed to be thinking of something.

She spun around, and he avoided her gaze. When Fine would call his name, begging him to wait, he would not comply to her pleads and walked away. Was he there the whole time? Why did he keep spying on Rein and herself whenever they went on expeditions? What was his true ordeal? Where was he going? Fine dashed after him, her feet crushing the dead grass concealed under the blanket of snow.

"Eclipse," she said one more time, and he stopped.

Fine, satisfied that she gained his attention, now found herself flustered, nearly forgetting what she was going to ask. A sudden gust of wind blew harshly around the two, causing the girl to shield herself, and when she opened her eyes again, Eclipse was gone.

She hadn't even asked her question yet.

Would he come back soon? Fine wondered. There was so much that she had to know about him. The questions she had for him spun around her mind, and she just wanted to understand him as a person.

Something told her that he had to. It was destiny.
