it didn't take long

When; Backdated to July 25, afternoon
Rating; G
Characters; Euphemia li Brittania (deadly_legacy) and Syaoran (littlepuppyeyes)
Summary; Syaoran, just like he promised, tells Euphie about the trade.
Log;


[Syaoran's sitting beside the fountain as he waits for Euphemia. He's patient and he doesn't know if this is indeed the right time. There was that whole incident with Flynn and her brother, will telling her right now be a good decision? But, he promised, didn't he? Conflicted, he stares down - his feet providing a good view for him.

There's still another month before the trade wears off, but he supposed the secret can't wait for that long. He just hopes that this won't hurt her like the past incidents already had.]

[deadly_legacy]

[She's glad she decided to meet him out here. She needs to get over her fears and move on with her life. She can't waste this time she has back. Alive again.

She sees him looking very intently at his shoes as she approaches.] Are they about to do something interesting?

[littlepuppyeyes.livejournal.com]

[When he hears her, he immediately stands up to greet.] Ah- no, I don't think so.

[deadly_legacy]

[She smiles sweetly at him.] Hi, Syaoran.

[littlepuppyeyes.livejournal.com]

[He gives his own smile, albeit lopsidedly, before bowing a bit.] Hello, Euphemia-san.

[deadly_legacy]

[She tips her head and smiles.] Are you ready?

[littlepuppyeyes.livejournal.com]

Ah- of course! [He doesn't know if her ready means he's ready to talk or if he's ready to spend time together with her.] We can eat somewhere while we talk?

[deadly_legacy]

[It meant ready to find somewhere to talk. After all, she didn't really think he meant to do it here.] That sounds perfect. Did you have a place in mind?

[littlepuppyeyes.livejournal.com]

Well, I spotted a small cafe on my way here.

[deadly_legacy]

That sounds good. [Smiles warmly. Syaoran makes it feel easy to feel forgiven.] Lead the way.

[littlepuppyeyes.livejournal.com]

[Because for him, she didn't even have to say sorry to be forgiven.] Alright. [And he leads the way, turning to the direction of the said cafe.]

[deadly_legacy]

[Walking with him.] How are you feeling? [Still concerned even if he's been magically healed twice this week.]

[littlepuppyeyes.livejournal.com]

[He turns to smile at her.] I'm fine, Euphemia-san. Please do not worry. [Pause, and his smile kinda wavers a bit there.] I've been doing well ever since... those incidents.

[deadly_legacy]

I'm glad you're fine. [Even if she doesn't fully believe it.] I'll try not to worry.

[littlepuppyeyes.livejournal.com]

I'm glad. [Pause, before:] I'm sorry if... I'm being a burden to you.

[deadly_legacy]

[Stops] Syaoran, no! Don't even say that. Of course you aren't.

[littlepuppyeyes.livejournal.com]

[He looks down in contemplation.] You were worried because I was being too reckless. I apologize.

[deadly_legacy]

I just don't want you to be hurt.

[littlepuppyeyes.livejournal.com]

I... will try my best not to. For you. [Pause.] And for my friends here.

[deadly_legacy]

...Is there a reason you might be getting hurt more often than usual?

[oh god busted.]

[littlepuppyeyes.livejournal.com]

[Then again, he's bound to tell her today anyway.] We can discuss it over at the cafe.

[He enters the said cafe, face deep in contemplation, as he surveys for an empty spot. He actually misses one which is nearer while he's lost in his thoughts.]

[deadly_legacy]

[So there is something to discuss. Well, she knew there was already really. She follows past the empty spot thinking he is passing it up for some reason, but then she indicates another since he seems a little distracted.] How is this?

[littlepuppyeyes.livejournal.com]

[He turns around, clearly startled.] Ah! Yes, that seems to be a good spot.

[deadly_legacy]

[She smiles and gracefully takes a seat.] There's no reason to be nervous you know.

[littlepuppyeyes.livejournal.com]

[He takes his seat opposite her, smiling.] I know, but still-- I mean I'm with an important friend so, I shouldn't feel that way.
