Cotton Candy
By Royal blueKitsune
God could only understand how so much food could disappear in the stomach of such a small person and not cause permanent damage. She was natural and bubbly, always jumping from one place to another and dragging him after her and he never complained.
Obviously the result of too much sugar.
A half of him listened to her babble excitedly about the wonderful stuffed plushie he had won her at one of those ridiculously easy games found at the fair. He draped an arm loosely around her shoulders and felt her cuddle in his embrace with a content sigh.
The other half was experiencing burning curiosity at the fact that she could still munch on that damn cotton candy - she seemed to adore so much - without feeling sick.
It was the fourth one in three hours. After she had eaten one hot dog, a bag of caramelized popcorn and a bar of chocolate. With him to share everything of course and occasionally take advantage of her soft lips.
That still wasn't an excuse for such a 'healthy' appetite. She was so tiny compared to him...
"Hey Leon, can we try the Ferris wheel this time? I don't think I can take another roller coaster ride." As a reinforcement her stomach grumbled loudly, making Sora turn a shade of red from embarrassment.
He caught himself hoping against hope that it wasn't a result of hunger.
"Of course. Are you sure you aren't tired though? You have tried almost every ride in this park twice today."
"Nope. Do I seem tired?"
Well...actually she was bouncing on her soles of her feet and looked as active and awake as ever. Leon considered telling her that but after a few moments of considering, he finally settled for a simple no and an absent shake of his head.
"Thank you so much for bringing me here Leon. I haven't been to a carnival ever since I was five. My parents never really found the time to take me anymore...though I don't know why." She pouted up at him, letting her lower lip tremble in an almost comical fashion.
He coughed to hide his amusement - if this was what she had acted like then too, he could form an idea of why her parents had skillfully avoided taking her anywhere near these rides...and the stalls full of sweets.
Leon was starting to think...
"How cute!" The redhead disengaged herself from his arms and - practically - jumped towards a boutique full of large, fluffy toys. "I never thought I'd live to see a pink elephant with wings."
...that he wouldn't be able to keep up with her.
Well, at least it wasn't like he wasn't trying. With a wry smile he watched her coo at a green giraffe, completely ignoring the fact that she was already holding a similar item.
The vendor looked completely at a loss and had stopped in the middle of displaying the other toys in favor of gaping at Sora like she had just grown a second head. His girlfriend wasn't even aware that she was being stared at like she had gone nuts but it didn't bode well with him.
"That is enough love." He wrapped an arm around her waist and threw the man a cold look, feeling mildly satisfied when he scurried as far away from both of them. "You can get another one after you take the one you already have home.
Sora blinked and her eyes fell on the pink bunny with large beady eyes and she blushed again, grinning embarrassedly up at him.
"Errr...sorry? I wasn't going to make you carry this so don't worry."
"I wouldn't be caught dead holding...that thing." He replied haughtily, giving her his best impression of an offended look. "The mere fact that it's pink forces me to loathe it. You're lucky you liked it or it would be occupying the closest trash bin. In ribbons."
She laughed freely and pecked him on the cheek, unable to keep her mirth controlled in front of his downright affronted expression.
Touchy subject. Then again...what man or woman wanted to be seen with something so obscenely pink? Sora herself was considering throwing it away and at first opportunity she would do it too...not that she knew that Leon held no attachment to it either.
It was just a fluke that she had gotten this as a prize anyway.
"Well then!" She giggled, in a very bubbly voice (or what Leon liked to call high on sugar). "Banzai!"
The bunny went flying and landed with - surprising - accuracy in a trash bin not far away.
Leon's expression was slightly incredulous.
"Is there something you wish to tell me Sora?"
Her smile was the epitome of innocence.
"I positively hated it. I just didn't want to throw away something that I had received from you...before I knew what you thought about it."
"Color issues?"
"Yep! I was beginning to think I was going to have to stash it somewhere in a closet so that it wouldn't end up illuminating my bedroom at night."
It was definitely never boring with her around that was for sure.
The End
Short...I really need to get more inspiration for these drabbles. Making them longer would be a nice change.
Well, opinions are eagerly expected anyway. Even drabbles need their reviewers.
Tell me what you think! And be gentle please.
