So my brother-in-law made this prawn curry and insisted my sister try it, my sister who is allergic to prawns. She said no at first, but then he kept going on about how yummy it was, so she tried it in the end and well... it didnt go down so well, literally. He felt so guilty afterwards.

This is post-game, and can be taken place before Salt.

Allergy

"Mmm, Squall these prawns are so succulent." Rinoa emphatically moaned while forking in another mouthful of the prawn curry she had made that evening.

"Hm, you said." Squall replied back just finishing off his own plate of plain white rice and mild chicken curry.

"Are you sure you don't want to try some?" The raven haired tempted him by taking another bite of the juicy king prawns.

Squall looked longingly at the pinkness of Rinoa's lips savouring every bite of the tender meatiness of the pawn.

"No… I'm allergic remember?" He dully reminded her.

Her throat made a sorrowful recognition of his allergies before swallowing her next bite. Squall made his way over to the sink basin and started washing up his plate. Behind him Rinoa continued their earlier conversation.

"So you think Seifer has the guts to ask Quistis out?" She paused from her food and awaited Squall's reaction to the current situation between the said people.

Squall didn't act bothered by the situation, truth was he wasn't. He couldn't care less if Seifer suddenly came to his senses and realised Quistis was the 'one' all this time. It was their business and his thoughts didn't mean a thing.

"I don't know." He replied back without much enthusiasm.

"Well, I think it would be a good thing if they did get together. Quistis can be intimidating sometimes, you know." Rinoa replied back while helping herself to another spoonful of the prawn curry.

"How so?" Squall asked sitting back down next to his wife.

"Well, she's gorgeous, smart and single. What guy wouldn't want to date her?" She replied, not making eye contact with the brunette and keeping her eyes firmly planted on her plate.

"True. But this guy already has a gorgeous, smart wife, so she needn't feel intimidated." He whispered before lifting her chin to place a small kiss.

Rinoa's face instantly brightened at the kiss. Squall knew she felt some jealousy when it came to his relationship with Quistis. The first few months they became a couple was tough, and whenever she sought advice Quistis knew Squall better than most. It had eventually made the raven haired jealous that someone other than her knew Squall better.

Squall always made sure to make Rinoa feel that she knew him the most, and the truth was she did, she just didn't realise it. He had never loved before, and he had chosen Rinoa out of all the other prospective women in his life to give her his heart.

"Are you sure you don't want to try some?" Rinoa asked holding up her fork to Squall.

"Hmm." Squall was already contemplating.

"I'll just give you some rice with the gravy, that way you at least know the taste." Rinoa explained while getting a forkful ready.

Bringing it up to Squall's mouth she easily fed him the spicy treat and waited his judgement.

"Good." Squall complimented after swallowing his mouthful.

"And you're still alive?" She asked teasingly.

"I'll let you know in a couple of minutes." He subtly joked.

Rinoa smiled back before continuing with her food.

"Oh I bumped into Selphie today." She exclaimed while starting another conversation. "She's heading off to Trabia for three weeks to see her friend."

Squall nodded while recollecting the image of a medium length brunette-head he had met during the Trabia bombing.

"Irvine going with her?" He asked, feeling obliged to take part in the conversation.

"No, she doesn't want him flirting with her friend." Rinoa responded while holding up another forkful for Squall to take.

"Its got a prawn in it." He stated while moving his head back.

"I know, but it's a small one." She replied still holding onto the fork. "Just chew it slowly, and if you feel ill just spit it out." She advised him encouragingly.

He was hesitant at first, but seeing Rinoa's pouting pink lips smacking against each other from the spicy taste was overly tempting.

He knelt his head and took the bite, carefully chewing slowly at the tender meat. She had been right, it was succulent and juicy and all the more heavenly than the bite he had taken before.

"Irvine will find a way to flirt with her friend some how. Even if he isn't in Trabia." Rinoa continued.

Gulping down water, Squall took his reading book off the kitchen table and walked over to the couch in the next room.

Rinoa continued talking for the next twenty seconds about Selphie and Irvine's weird relationship, before turning around to see Squall's contorted face.

Squall frowned at the feeling at his throat, the glands in his throat started closing in and his tongue started to feel twice its size. He could feel his chest heave on impulse and he readied himself for the impact.

"Squall, are you ok?" Rinoa uttered just as Squall bolted from his chair and ran for the waste bin.

Hurling into the bin he let out the entire contents in his stomach. Rinoa was immediately at his side rubbing his back in a panic.

"Oh Squall, it was such a tiny prawn I didn't know it could do this." She tried excusing herself.

"It's fine." Squall finally breathed after a pause.

"It's not Squall, I didn't know it was this bad, I thought a tiny small prawn couldn't cause any harm." Rinoa cried in distress, her face guilty and shocked.

"Rinoa, I'll be ok." Squall croaked spitting the last bit of chewed up food out and reading himself again for any future vomiting.

"No Squall, you don't understand. If anything happened to you, your death would be on my hands. You could have died because you wanted to please me. How could I live with myself knowing I fed you that prawn?"

Squall looked at Rinoa closely and repeated her words in his head a couple of times before replying.

"Rinoa, it's nice to know that in the event of my death, the first thing you'll be thinking about is how it affects you." He finally replied before hurling into the waste bin again.

Yeah so that's kinda how it went. I know I changed the genders around, but I don't see Squall tempting Rinoa into eating something she is allergic to. Hehe.
