57th Draw = AU Special [Accidental Voice]

[The dream starts out plain enough. Selphie’s wandering through a large field of wildflowers. The sun is shining and there’s a gentle breeze blowing the sweet smell of flowers and petals toward her. Something about this field of flowers is familiar, yet unfamiliar at the same time thanks to the Malnosso’s tampering. Small plumes of dandelion puffs take flight as she brushes past a bouquet of weeds. Regardless, she takes a few steps forward before the dream changes.

Now she’s standing in a hallway with students in school uniforms milling around her. These uniforms, like the field before her bring out a sense of familiarity as the perky brunette opts for shrugging this off. There’s no way that this is real, she’s thinking. She’s lived in Luceti her entire life, raised by loving parents. Looking down, Selphie’s wearing the same uniform as the rest of the students before she sees the faces of friends that she can’t quite put a name to the face of. She spots Irvine in the hall and stares at him in confusion when he tilts his hat to her. Zell comes next with an enthusiastic wave followed by Quistis, Squall and Rinoa.

Who are these people; she’s wondering as she steps forward again and the scene changes.

Now Selphie is being engulfed in flames as she immediately wakes up. Sitting bolt-upright in bed with a startled cry, she wraps her arms around herself protectively. What was that, she’s wondering before she slips out of bed and gets dressed. The rush of adrenaline the last fragment of her dream gave her means she won’t be getting back to sleep anytime soon. Grabbing her nunchaku, the perky brunette has slipped into her training clothes and heads for the Battle Dome to work through it in quiet. She doesn’t want to worry her family as she slips into her training boots and leaves her home quietly.

Or she’d try to anyway. In the process, she knocks open the journal as she starts talking to herself in a soft tone.]

What a weird dream...

Well, what?

[Spit it out already, awkward turtle!]

[He wants to impress her, okay?!]

Nothing.

[Have a quick hug though.]

You ready?

[Even if they weren't in an alternate universe, Selphie would give him the exact same questioning look that she's giving him right now. She nods eventually, however.]

I'm ready.

[Totally claiming her hand for himself, thanks. They'll just keep walking until Selphie finds a spot she likes. Please don't let him walk into the lake.]

[Selphie spots a clearing near a tree as she starts to drag Ceodore in that direction. It's the perfect spot to have a picnic.]

This way!

[Her enthusiasm gets a laugh from Ceodore who happily tags along.]

That the place you like?

Sure is!

[Selphie grins excitedly. An afternoon alone with her boyfriend. What more could a gal want?]

[Ceodore jogs ahead and lays out the blanket he brought with, then holds his hands out to display it proudly.]

After you.

[Selphie smiles warmly before stealing a kiss and settling herself on the blanket.]

Thanks!

[Kisses are great! Ceodore puts down the basket and settles on the blanket beside Selphie. He's crazy about her and it shows. In fact, he reaches over to cup her cheek in his hand.]

How'd I get so lucky?

[She places her hand on top of his before pulling it down and curling her slender fingers around his.]

I dunno, [sly little wink] - how did you get so lucky?

I must have done something good.

[She gets a peck on the nose for being cute.]

You're beautiful.

[Selphie blushes a bit before smiling warmly at Ceodore. Such a sweetie.]

I must've done something good too, then.

You're so cute when you're being serious.

Hey now. Guys aren't supposed to be cute.

I'm making an exception to the rule so you'll just have to deal with it.

[Selphie giggles before winking at him.]

Your secret's safe with me!

If not, I have ways to silence you...

[Which involve lots of snogging, which he's leaning in to do.]

action

[identity profile] boomchucka.livejournal.com 2011-05-05 05:13 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, do you now?

[She'll lean in a little closer to meet him halfway. Nobody's watching so they can snog to their hearts content.]

[identity profile] lunarianlegacy.livejournal.com 2011-05-05 12:50 pm (UTC)(link)
[Snogging is great! And who needs air anyway? Although Ceodore's enjoying the activity so much, he catches hold of Selphie's waist (without even really thinking about where his hands are or what he's doing) and attempts to pull her into his lap, just to have her closer. She's tiny and he's strong. It's not a hard thing to accomplish.]

[identity profile] boomchucka.livejournal.com 2011-05-05 02:13 pm (UTC)(link)
[Ah, she'll let him pull her closer but she'll start tapping his shoulder eventually. Contrary to popular belief, air is important.]

action

[identity profile] lunarianlegacy.livejournal.com 2011-05-05 02:25 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yeah okay, air is important. Ceodore really only pulls back enough to grab some of that, then lay his forehead against Selphie's.]

Love you.

[Those little words always catch her off guard. He's always saying it at the most oportunistic times as her cheeks flush to a rosy shade of pink before she smiles fondly at him.]

Love you too.

[She'll giggle bashfully at that comment before that fond smile turns shy.]

Thank you.
