Summary: Rikku takes her aka Yuna's concerns to Gippal, who is being a typical male.
Author's Note: Ah HAH, here is the problem. Rikku is female and Gippal is male! Things are
never going to work out if they remain their genders! So, they must become... umm... oh well. Okay,
taking requests and suggestions and so on! Also, Best of Rikku/Gippal, check it out, nominate, all are
welcome even if you don't have LJ. Link is at my profile. Support our writers!
Rikku sat on the edge of his desk and crossed her ankles. "Maybe we should go out less." Gippal didn't look up from his technical drawing. He hmmmed in the back of his throat. She twisted her body and rested her weight on one arm. "Yuna talked with me. We have to be going out too often if Yuna is actually saying something."
"Mmmmm."
"She never says anything. She just smiles, agrees and moves on. I mean, sometimes she gets angry, but it's over the important things like the importance of Summoners or if someone is being an idiot around Kimhari."
"Mmmmhmmm."
"I mean, the world has to be in peril before Yuna gets angry. And, she isn't angry with me yet, but-"
"Uh huh."
"Gippal, are you even paying attention to me?" She waved a hand between him and his work.
He raised his head and blinked. "Sort of."
She sighed. "What did I say?"
He paused and pressed his lips together. "Ummm."
Rikku made a sound between a gargle and a shriek. "You weren't!"
"I'm busy. It's working hours. I need to focus." He sighed. "Can't we talk about this tonight."
"No, because I committed to a girls only night tonight. So, we have to discuss thisnow."
"Tomorrow night?"
Rikku tapped her fingers on the desk. "Can't. It's Wakka's birthday which I told you last week."
"The night after that?"
"It won't take long."
"It does when you babble."
"I don't babble!"
He snorted.
"It won't take long if you actually listen, instead of me having to repeat myself half a dozen times."
"You look cute today."
She flushed, smiled and then frowned. "Don't change the subject." Her eyes narrowed and completely true to female nature stayed on the changed subject. "And don't I look cute everyday?"
"No, some days you look pretty and others sexy and some beautiful and many gorgeous."
She tried not to chew her tongue. "You have an answer for everything. Argh. There you go, having me off the subject."
He smiled.
"All I was wondering was if we could or should go out less often. I don't see why exactly we shouldn't go out as often as we do. It's not like I don't work with Yuna and Paine every single day, but-"
"And there is always a but." Gippal muttered.
"In the effort to salvage friendships, I was thinking we should cut back our investigation."
"And your excuse of Cid's ordering you out?"
"I could say I'm running out of men." She shrugged.
He shook his head. "We're actually getting somewhere though. Let's give it another week and then if we haven't found anything more out, we'll cut back and reconsider our tactics."
She exhaled loudly. "All right, that sounds good."
He tilted his head. "So, if I'm not going to see you tonight or tomorrow. Does this mean I get a kiss now?"
Rikku leaned down and pressed a soft kiss to his lips.
He blinked. "That's it?"
She grinned at him. "Listen to me next time." She giggled, bounced off the desk and started for the door.
He growled, and vaulted the desk. She heard his boots his the floor and laughed, dashing towards the door. He overtook her and slammed the door in her face. She spun on her heel and licked her lips. He grinned down at her leaning on his hand using his body weight to keep the door shut as she pressed her back against it and tugged futilely on the doorknob, all the while giggling. "I think you owe me a better kiss." He said and leaned down.
"No. I don't!"
"Then I'm taking one." And he did.
