Ben's Note of Sheer Awesome: Hey guys, Ben again! I've been focusing a lot on this new trimester and my brand new OC Total Drama fic, but I noticed that today is a special occasion. *winks*. So, I decided to drop everything else and write this chapter.
First off, KittyChesireluv! Sorry I don't update too often. I meant to wish you luck on you're robot competition, but I couldn't update fast enough. So how did you do? Also… happy birthday! I think that's what you said in your review that it was today, so if it's not, happy birthday whenever it is!
This chapter is a birthday gift for KittyChesireluv for reviewing every chapter and being a dedicated fan to not only my work, but this ship.
Prompt 9: Crash
Alistair was never late.
He found it funny that his best friend was Bunny Blanc, someone who was obsessive about being on time. She was always several minutes early to classes, meetings, and social gatherings. Alistair never really saw the importance of rushing to meet appointments. He always managed to make it right on time.
No reason to worry, right?
"Hey Alistair?" Bunny asked him one day. Alistair was at her locker, simply chatting to her. She kept him sane in moments where he was confused about something, but he also liked chatting to her because of their friendship.
"What?" he asked.
"Didn't you tell me you had a lunch date with Kitty?" Bunny asked, checking her watch.
Alistair simply rolled his eyes. "Bunny, I'll show up on time," he said. "I have a good five minutes before I have to meet her."
Bunny continued to stare at her watch. "Actually, you're five minutes late," she said.
"What? No, I checked Professor Stiltskin's clock before I left," he said, sure of himself.
Bunny giggled. "His clock is five minutes behind," Bunny said. "My watch is always on time and you're five minutes late."
Alistair paled. "Crap!" he shouted and ran for his and Kitty's bench. Bunny giggled as he ran off.
Kitty always worried that she'd disappoint those she loved.
Alistair was held higher than everyone else.
She didn't like showing the insecure side of herself, but she always feared that she'd mess up and lose Alistair. She loved him with all her heart, but she was afraid she'd slip up one time, and it'd be over. She didn't want that.
And it scared her out of her wits when she looked at the clock and noticed she was late for their lunch date.
"Oh no! No, no, no, no!" Kitty said panicked, rushing as fast as she could to her normal meeting place with Alistair. She realized later she could have just teleported, but she was scared. She wasn't thinking straight.
"Please don't be mad at me," she whispered silently. She had no idea that Alistair was praying the same thing.
Kitty turned a corner and bolted at her top speed. She was almost there… just a little bit farther…
BAM!
She ran smack into someone. She groaned in pain and rubbed her head. Great. Not only was she late, but she ran into someone like she was careless. Alistair was going to be so mad…
"Hey, you alr… Kitty?" came the voice of the person she ran into.
Kitty looked up and saw her boyfriend standing above her. Alistair offered her his hand and helped pick her up. Kitty offered him an embarrassed smile. "S-s-sorry Alistair. I was just running late, and I thought you'd be mad, so I was trying to get there before you got super mad…" she said shyly.
Alistair gave a small chuckle. "Kitty… I got here late. Bunny told me I was running late and I was panicking you would be upset," he said.
The couple looked into each other's eyes. And they both laughed. Both had missed the exact time of their date. But it didn't matter. Alistair and Kitty shared a kiss as Kitty giggled at how silly being late to one little really was.
BN: *sniffles* I'd cry more heavily, but I'm being lectured by someone and they don't know I'm writing FanFiction. Funnily enough, it's in a creative writing class. Weird, right? This chapter I wanted to show that Kitty and Alistair both make mistakes, but most of the time, they're the same mistake. It's not a big deal though. It's good to simply laugh the mistakes you make as a couple off and move on. I think in this instance, I succeeded.
Once again, happy birthday to KittyChesireluv! Love you as an author loves his fans! I'll update as soon as I can, alright?
Like? Hate? Meh? Let me know in a review! Or don't! Either works!
