"FINN. Just be quiet, I don't want things to get any worse."

Walking or, more appropriately deemed, stomping, Angela was now making her way over to Harmonica Town, ready to present the little tomato juice which she could salvage to a certain silver-haired boy.

"B-But Angela!" desperately trying to get her to listen to him, Finn flailed around in the air as he tried his hardest to keep up with the incredibly stubborn girl.

"..."

Sighing as he realised that it was useless, the yellow sprite decided that it was perhaps best to keep his distance from the girl after all, upon realising what the likely reaction would be when she found out what he had been trying to tell her all along.

"Okay there he is...ohmyGodohmyGod calm down Angela, it's just some damn juice!"

"Hey, Gill!" she called quickly, wanting to get this over with as soon as possible. Sure, Angela had given Gill his favourite gift before, but it had always been made at the Ocarina inn. A place where Angela assumed they didn't have those sorts of 'accidents'. (Unless Maya was the one in the kitchen, of course.)

"What is it, Angela, I'm trying to...re...ad..." Looking up from his book at the girl headed towards him, Gill had to do a double take to make sure that she wasn't carrying any weapons. Upon seeing that she was actually weapon-free, Gill placed his forehead in his hands, wandering why someone like Angela could have ever helped save the Goddess tree from dying.

"What the hell has she done now..." he muttered before resuming his normal posture, debating whether to ask her out straight or not when she reached him.

"I made you something, Gill. You better be pleased with it because you have NO idea what I had to go through in order to produce it."

Smiling as she fished out the securely sealed bottle of the tomato juice which she had stored in her bag (Just in case she tripped during the walk to the town, or got attacked by a bear, or anymore of that fun stuff), she held it out proudly for Gill to take.

'Oh.' He thought as he took the item from her delicate hands. 'So THAT's what happened.'

"Gill?"

A sweet voice snapped him out of his realisation, causing him to look across and see a rather nervous looking Angela waiting, apparently wanting to see him take at least a sip before she left.

"Oh, right." He said in his usual manner, before unscrewing the bottle lid, and downing some of the liquid before he had a chance to even think about it.

"So?" An eager Angela was practically standing on her tip-toes waiting for a reaction, not noticing how Finn had all but completely fled from the scene.

"It's good. You made it well, Ange."

"OH THANK GOD. You seriously wouldn't believe what happened, hell, I'm not even going to TELL you what happened, because..."

Zoning out as Angela began to blabble, Gill wandered whether he should tell her what a side effect of her cooking attempt had been.

Thankfully for him, he was saved by Maya, who had caught a glimpse of her best friend whilst she was taking a stroll during her break from work. And being the best friend that she was, she ran straight over, obviously not having the same trouble as Gill did when deciding on either the subtle or 'in your face' approach to the situation.

"OH MY GODDESS ANGELA, WHAT THE HECK IS THAT IN YOUR HAIR?"

"Huh, in my hair?"

"Come here." Grabbing Angela by the arm, Maya pulled her over to one of the clinic's windows, to show her what exactly she was talking about.

"...WHAT THE FU-"

"DON'T WORRY! Come with me back to the inn, I'll wash it up all good for ya!"

And with that the ever eager Maya dragged a now embarrassed Angela away, hoping that her parents wouldn't get too much of a fright when they walked in to their home.

Staring at the spot where the commotion had just took place before him, Gill thanked the Harvest Goddess that Jin or Irene didn't see the tomato juice-stained Angela through the window, thinking that she had been battered by one of her chickens, or had swung her axe a bit too enthusiastically.

It was then that Gill did something that he rarely ever did. He smiled. Gill, the stuck-up, serious member of the town smiled...a smile which proceeded to turn into a hearty laugh.

However much of an idiot that Angela was, he decided, she could still make him smile.

And that was one of the many reasons why he was beginning to gradually fall in love with her.

...That, and the effort put into the making of the tomato juice, of course.
