Prompt: Shadow
✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:*:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧
"Hey uh, Four?" Sky asked as he put his hand on Four's shoulder. They both craved physical touch, or at least the Red part of Four majorly did, and Sky did just as much.
"Hm?" Four asked, tilting his head slightly.
Sky glanced behind them again, as though just making sure that he wasn't mistaken. "Well I was just kind of wondering..." He moved his free hand to gesture to behind them in hopes that Four would understand what he meant.
"What is it, Sky?' Four lifted an eyebrow. He had an idea, but he just wanted to make sure, lest he say the wrong thing and spill a secret he wasn't ready to delve into.
"So like... I have a shadow." Sky began, gesturing to his own, that was growing longer as the sun was setting. But then he gestured to the bright sunny spot that was directly behind Four. "So... where's yours?"
"Probably fell asleep." Four only shrugged, as though such an answer wasn't just plausible, but likely.
Sky gave a nervous chuckle, glancing around at the others who may or may-not be listening in on their conversation. He silently evaluated the possibility that his friend may be a little bit crazy. "I'm... not so sure shadows do that, Four."
"Mine does." The Smith shrugged again ignoring the disbelief clearly written on Sky's face. "You should have seen him yesterday. He was break dancing when I was just standing still." He held his hands behind his back and kept walking, even as Sky stopped in his tracks.
"You're... kidding, right?" He echoed.
"Don't believe me? Just watch my shadow the next time he appears. You'll see. He tries to mimic me, but he kind of sucks at his job. Don't tell him I said that, though." Four chuckled to himself. Everyone had stopped walking now, exchanging confused glances at each other, and then Four's lack of shadow.
