Was brought to my attention about my author's note for chapter one about Fang and Vanille being sisters. I've got a bad habit of changing my original storyline as I'm writing the story out. So if anybody else was confused by that, I do apologize.
Oh, I finished the game :D And to those people who were having issues with the final bosses…I guess I shouldn't tell you I only got 1 game over in the last battles…2 game overs in all of chapter 13. Oh yea, I'm a Final Fantasy guru…go me!
Wedding Date
Chapter 13
-Six Months Later-
I stretched before snuggling my face deeper into Fang's neck. She let out a happy groan and tightened her grip around my waist. If only we could stay like this forever. "Good morning sunshine."
"Hmm." I barely opened my eyes, thought I didn't bother moving.
"Claire, I'm hungry." She smirked and pushed me onto my back. "And I know what's for breakfast."
"Oh?" As if I didn't already know. She never showed any shyness when it came to how much and how often she wanted me. My arms slid around her neck and our eyes met. She had the most beautiful eyes in the world. And I was the only one who would get to stare into them.
"Mhmm." Her head dipped down, her lips going right for my neck.
"No, no, no…" As much as I didn't want to stop her I was still sore from the night before. "You have to wait." I let out a soft chuckle at her pout.
"But why?" She lowered her head to try my neck again. I moaned softly but forced myself to push her away again.
"Because…" I kissed her softly. "…I'm still recovering."
"I'll be gentle." She smirked before using her strength advantage to pin me to the bed.
I couldn't help as my eyes fell shut. She straddled my hips and captured my lips with her own. I never could deny her that which we both wanted. Her skillful mouth pulled away from mine and trailed a line of warm kisses across my jaw and down my neck. "Fang…" I wanted to yell at her but it only came out as a whimper. My body instantly started responding. I tilted my head, giving her more access to the skin of my neck, my hips and back arched up, encouraging her to continue.
"Hey…" We pulled away from one another to look at Vanille standing in the doorway. Her face was flushed, yet carried an amused look. "…I made breakfast." She turned to leave, speaking again before walking away. "You should lock the door next time."
I pushed her off of me. We were both laughing. "Told you we should have stayed at my place."
"Yea, yea…" She pushed the blanket off of her and sat on the edge of the bed. "Once again Lightning's right."
"Aren't I always?" I snuggled back into the pillows and watched her.
She stood up and grabbed her robe from the back of the closet door. "Stay here."
I surely wasn't going to fight her. I was quite comfortable in her bed, surrounded by her blanket and pillows. All of which smelled just like her.
"Fang it's beautiful!"
My ears perked at hearing Vanille squeak from the living room. Fang could be heard immediately after trying to quiet her. I climbed out of bed and pulled her other robe from the closet to cover my body up. "What's going on out here?" I leaned against the doorframe just in time to see Fang shove something behind her back.
Vanille walked behind Fang before darting down the hallway into her own room. She carried a small box in her hands. "I thought I told you to stay in there."
"I did, until she screamed." I took a step back when she approached me. "What was that box?"
"What box?"
"Don't play dumb with me Fang. I saw Vanille run into her room with a small box in her hands. What was it?"
"You have to wait until I get home from work tonight sunshine." I turned my head away from her when she leaned down for a kiss. "What did I do now?"
"Is it a gift for Vanille?"
"No, it's for you actually. But you can't see it yet. Alright?" She tipped my chin up to look into her eyes. The construction of my emotional wall came to an abrupt stop. Gazing into those green eyes made all of my defenses crumble. "Alright?" She asked again. I nodded. "Okay, go and eat, I have to start getting ready for work."
"I still can't believe you're working during the day." She just shrugged her shoulders before walking by me into the bedroom. I shook any thoughts from my head and made my way into the kitchen to eat.
Fang had just left for work and I found myself stretched out on their sofa. She insisted I stay with Vanille for a little while longer. Vanille had found some child's cartoon to watch on the television. It reminded me of something Dahj would watch with Sazh in the background rolling his eyes. Much like I am now. My curiosity was still running wild. I couldn't stop thinking and wondering about the contents of that box.
"Hey Vanille?" The girl turned to look at me. "Earlier…you ran down the hallway with a box. What was it?"
She giggled and shook her head. "I'm not allowed to tell."
"So…it wasn't for you?"
"Nope. But I think you'll love it." She clasped her hands in front of her chest, a new found twinkle appearing in her eyes. "No, I know you'll love it!"
Then it hit me. "Fang's not at work is she?"
"Of course she is!" The girl shot back with no hesitation, yet I didn't believe her.
"Why would she ask me to stay here with you?" I rolled my eyes at the hurt expression showing up on her face. "Not that I don't like you Vanille…" I closed my eyes to think. "How long have we known one another?" I continued before giving Vanille a chance to answer. "Years…Of those years Fang has never worked in the morning." I stood up from the sofa and made my way into her bedroom to get my clothes on. Something was up and I was going to find out what it was.
"No, Lightning you have to stay here!" I stopped and looked at her. She had an expression on her face that made me smile. It was a mixture of fear, eager, happy, excited, as well as an 'I spilled the beans' look.
"Why?"
"Because…Fang wants you to."
"Not good enough. What's she up to?"
"I can't tell you Lightning!" She dropped to her knees on the carpet and wrapped herself around my legs. "But you have to stay here, at least for a little while longer."
"I don't like surprises Vanille." I tried pulling my legs free of her but only ended up falling to the carpet.
Her grip only tightened, her eyes clenched shut as she held on for dear life. "Fang will be mad at me if you go home now. She put a lot of thought into this."
"If I say I'll stay for another hour will you let go of my legs?"
She sat up and smiled widely. "Yes!"
I shook my head as she stood up and went back to watching her show. I was both leery and anxious as to what, in fact, it was that Fang had planned. And what the hell did it have to do with my home? I knew I never should have given her a key…
One more chapter until this masterpiece is finished. I still can't wrap my head around the fact that I've received so many reviews for it. Not that I'm complaining or anything, just saying.
Don't forget to add to my review total :D
