Ben's Note of Sheer Awesome: That's right, Ben is back with yet another adorable chapter! And trust me, after the last chapter, I feel like we need something adorable right now. Just as a heads up, I'll be switching between my three massive sized fics. It'll depend on what I'm feeling on the moment. TDFI, my newest project, will get a bit of attention for a while, but since this fic is nice and relaxing, expect one of these every once in a while.

One note before we start. This chapter takes place in Rumplestiltken's class, with the potion stuff. I don't know what it's called (forgive me uber fans!) so I'm just going to call it Potions. Correct me, audience! (But do so gently.)

Also, side note, inside out is adorbs! Made me cry, danggit… WHY MUST EVERYTHING MAKE ME CRY?!

Prompt 8: Burn

Kitty didn't mean to mix the incorrect ingredients.

Let's start at the beginning.

Kitty had remembered beforehand about the final exam in the Potion's Class she was attending. She had studied it over and over until she knew she could get it right. Alistair and her spent all nighters just so she could pass the exam. Well, most of the time. Other times they just cuddled.

Kitty took a deep breath as she entered the room. She knew Rumplestiltskin would fail her if she made tiny mistake, so she was ready. She sat down at her table and waited for class to start.

"Ready for the final?" someone asked. Kitty smiled as she turned to see her boyfriend, Alistair, sitting next to her.

"Of course," Kitty said. "We didn't spend all those study nights for nothing. I should be fine."

Alistair smiled. "Glad to hear it," he said. "Just remember, if you can't remember what you are supposed to do, just calm down, breath, and work it out in you're head."

Kitty smiled, remembering all the times he had said that during their study nights. "Right. I remember," she said.

"Be quiet!" Rumplestiltskin said at the front of the class. "Time for test. Talk and you fail."

Kitty took a breath and started to look at the potion she would be brewing. It was simple one, used to create an illusion of whatever would make the victim distracted. She started pouring mixtures and other substances in her beaker, making sure she had every measurement exactly perfect.

Then, when it came to the last ingredient, Kitty glanced at Alistair. She suddenly realized she had only come this far because of him. He took time out of his schedule to help her. She smiled, happy that someone loved her enough to help her through things.

And then she did it.

Her beaker set itself on fire. Kitty yelped dropping it on the table. The table suddenly lit on fire. Rumplestiltskin screamed, flailing his arms. Kitty was about to panic when Alistair appeared and dumped water over the table, distinguishing the flames. He gave her a reassuring smile, making Kitty blush with embarrassment.

It didn't last long though. Rumplestiltskin composed himself, glared at Kitty, and said, "Kitty Chesire, I give you F."

"That was so embarrassing," Kitty said shyly when she and Alistair walked out of the room.

"Hey, it was a simple mistake. You didn't do it on purpose," Alistair reassured her.

Kitty pouted. "You know I made that mistake because of you, right?" she said.

Alistair blinked. "How did I make you fail?" he asked.

"Because, I was thinking about how kind you were to help me try to pass. It distracted me and I must have put the wrong thing in," she said.

Alistair couldn't help but smile at that. "It's my fault that I love you that I want you to succeed?" Alistair asked, smirking.

Kitty's pout turned into an embarrassed smile. "Yes, Alistair. It's all your fault," she said. Then, she wrapped her arms around him for a hug. "But I don't want it to ever not be your fault."

BN: *is about to cry when he realizes he's writing this while taking a final exam* Huh. I wonder where the inspiration for this chapter came from. *shrugs* This chapter was probably one of my favorites. I could finally take a break from writing dark stuff. I wanted to show that Alistair has Kitty's best interests in mind. While Kitty didn't pass, she know she would have if she hadn't gotten distracted, which proves that Kitty can learn from Alistair. I think I did a great job, but I'll let you guys be the judge of that.

Like? Hate? Meh? Let me know in a review! Or don't! Either works.
