THE MANY WAYS TO WIN SOMEONE'S HEART
1
ALICE WHO?
Step 1: Never call a lady by her name.
The way you approach women is incredibly important. Make sure you never address them by their name. Instead, try a nickname that suits their physical attributes. Some examples include "Miss Angel, Jubblies, Little one, and Gorgeous –Ultra-Cool- Beauty". But "hunny" will suffice as well- it always seems to do the trick.
…
Luin seemed smaller since the last time they were there. This was probably since there wasn't any more water surrounding it. Hm. It certainly made the city look wider and prettier. But whatever, it's not like Decus particularly cared.
Alice was supposed to be here with Richter, so he just needed to find her and set his plan into action. The sun was high in the sky and he had to shade his eyes with his hand so that it didn't burn his pupils. Summer was his least favorite season. It was too hot in Sylvarant, and it made him sweat like crazy- he should probably wear less layers of clothing, but how would he impress Alice if he wasn't wearing this irresistibly cool outfit?
He kept walking until he finally found her by the fountain. She was staring at a sheet of paper in her hand, and whenever her eyes traveled towards Lloyd's statue, she'd wrinkle her nose and go back to reading whatever was written on that paper. She raised her eyes and looked right at him. His heart gave a jolt. 'Okay. Here I go'
"Decus! What took you so long?" Her eyebrows furrowed "Look," She motioned at the piece of paper in her thin hands "These are Richter's instructions. He said we need to find more exspheres. So our next stop is Palmacosta" Her eyes narrowed just slightly "We'd already be there if it wasn't for you! Dumbo-Decus, always slowing me down" She sinsonged.
The corners of Decus's mouth curved upwards "Al-" He shook his head 'almost messed up!' "My super-pretty-big-eyed- beauty!" He grinned "You were waiting for me! You were worried about me! I'm so happy" He walked closer to her.
Alice blinked looking disgusted. She took a step back "What did you call me?"
"My Super-pretty-big-eyed-beauty!" Decus replied confidently "'Cause that's just what you are!" He winked.
There was a pause. Alice looked incredulous. A few people passed them by, staring at them with fear.
"Have you been reading too much?" She asked raising an eyebrow.
"Oh! My dear Ali-I mean, hunny!" Decus placed a hand over his heart "Your concern for me makes me blush!"
"Concern?" Alice spat mockingly "How many times do I have to tell you I only care for myself?" She rolled her eyes "I guess you finally lost it, Dumbo-Decus. Come on, we better get going. I don't want Richter to get mad at me again" She turned around gracefully and skipped towards the city's exit.
"I'm right behind you, hunny!" Decus waved.
"Dammit" He mumbled angrily "That didn't work"
He followed after Alice.
That's the very first chapter! I really hope you enjoyed it.
See you next time!
