"Hey, Shihna! Over there!" Zelos pointed at something in the distance. "What is it now?" Shihna asked, irritated. For the past few hours Zelos had been dragging her around the city pointing at random things and dragging her over for a closer look. Wasn't he living in Meltokio? Wasn't he used to these things already? "Come on!" Zelos grabbed her hand and started pulling her over to whatever he was looking at. "Hey!" Shihna struggled to catch up with him. "What exactly do you see anyways?!" He stopped running suddenly. "This." Shihna almost crashed into him.

"This?..." She tilted her head. "A photobooth," Zelos said, grinning. "A photobooth?" Shihna repeated. "Yep." It occured to her that maybe he would want to get in it. "Wait. I'm not going to go in there. That's just-" Zelos pulled her inside. "Seriously, I don't-" Zelos made Shihna sit down in his lap. "What kind of backround do you want?" he asked, looking at the screen. "It doesn't matter," Shihna said, untangling Zelos' arms from around her and getting off his lap. How did she get herself into situations like this anyways? She had just finished having a meeting with the king and this idiot came up and dragged her off somewhere. "Then...this one!" Shihna turned to look at the screen. "What?! But that-" "You said it didn't matter," Zelos pointed out. "But that's...so..." Shihna's face reddened. The backround that Zelos chose...had so many hearts and...

If anybody saw this picture she would never be able to live. A picture with her and Zelos like this? They would definately look like a couple. A couple! She couldn't let that happen...would never let that happen. Ever. "I'll wait for you outside," Shihna said, getting up to leave. Zelos grabbed her wrist. "You're staying right here." He pulled her back down. "You're staying right here."

"Lemme go!" Shihna squealed, trying to get away. "And it'll say...Zelos and Shihna Love Love Forever!" Zelos shouted. "WHAT?! No way!" Too late. "Smile!" The camera flashed in their faces. "Another one!" Zelos said, inserting more gald into the machine. "How much gald are you going to waste on this?" Shihna asked, her eyebrows raised. "You don't have to worry about that, hun," was the reply. "Hmph."

How long did they spend in there anyways? It seemed like forever with the light flashing in their eyes...and she swore that she heard people talking about them from outside. "Done!" Zelos exclaimed, cheerfully. Well, at least he was done messing with the photobooth. Of course he would be running after something else he thought was interesting later. She wished he could run out energy. It was like he was stealing it from her or something.

Shihna took a deep breath as she stepped outside. It felt good to be out of the cramped booth. Even better because she probably couldn't stand another moment in there with Zelos. She wondered many times did he try to touch her in an inappropriate way. Then again, she thought it would be better not knowing. Zelos looked at the pictures that they took. "Hmm...I have two sets so Shihna can have one set and I can keep the other one..." he mumbled to himself, sorting out the cards. "Here you go!" He handed Shihna a pile of their pictures. "You're so cute, but you looked so uncomfortable!" He whined. "It was because I was with you!" Shihna protested. "Do you really hate being with me that much?" Zelos asked, looking through the pictures again. "Maybe I should run around with these and tell everybody that we're a couple!"

"NO WAY!" Shihna yelled at the top of her lungs. "Are you nuts?! That would be-I would be..." She would die of humiliation and...and...what was she going to do about Zelos' rabid fangirls? These pictures had her death written all over them. "Heh heh. Thinking about what would happen if I showed everyone, aren't you?" Zelos asked, snickering. "Y-you! If you try to do anything I'll-" "Don't worry, my voluptuous hunny," Zelos interrupted. "As long as you keep loving me, I won't do anything." He winked at her. "There's no way I would love you..." Shihna mumbled. "Oh, really?" Zelos grinned. "Hey, everybody!" he started shouting. "Shihna's my-" She immediately covered his mouth. "Shut up!" she hissed.

Zelos pulled Shihna's hand off his mouth. "But you said you didn't love me!" he whined. "Does anybody love you?" The question popped out of Shihna's mouth. "Err...that's not what I meant to say I...uhhh..." What was with her and saying stupid things? "Ah, well. Let's go, Shihna," Zelos said, brushing her comment off as if it was nothing. "Eh? But..." Zelos started pulling her in the direction of something he thought was interesting. "You're not mad?" Shihna asked, cautiously. "Of course not!" Zelos replied, cheerfully. "Let's go eat somewhere." She nodded, gripping his hand tighter. "Sorry..."

"Hmm...that's so unlike you, Shihna. Usually you're happy when you say heartless comments like that," he pointed out. "Don't worry about it," he said, turning to her and hitting her lightly on the head. "Let's go." He led her towards a cafe. "It was fun..." Shihna mumbled. "Just a little bit though."

"I'll take you out like this again, 'kay?" Shihna nodded. "Okay."

"It's a promise then!"

Now if only she could get him to forget that he had picture of them together. Maybe she could somehow brainwash him and burn all of the pictures. As if. She sighed. If only...

SakuMeiMei Says: The ending sucked. It sucked so bad. So I'm sorry...again. I just didn't know how to end this one and it just went out of control. Eeks. Sorry, sorry, sorry!

Oh. I didn't tell you about my picture yet, did I? The front cover of 1000 Wishes...is actually done! Actually it's been done for quite a long time now. Please go to Deviantart and check it out if you haven't yet! Just search for SakuMeiMei and you should find it. I tried really hard on it. Even though it has so many flaws...I still love it! XD

Actually I don't like pictures. I don't like anything relating to cameras. Believe me. It's true. XD But I get the feeling that if I cosplay I won't be scared of the camera. Especially if I'm Zelos. (I will be cosplaying as Zelos next year. XD) And whenever a girl asks me for a picture I would say,"Anything for you, cutie." or something along those lines. And then me and my buddies will waste money on a photobooth! I want it to be the kind that has the big cards and not the little stickers. I just like the card ones for some weird reason. I can stick them in my wallet. XD
