Kai and Cinder One-Shots

Oops...

I got into a fight with you because I thought you were my friend's crappy ex, but you're not. Sorry for the black eye?

"He's got black, kind of side swept hair, brown eyes. Sticks out like a sore thumb."

"Like, in a bad way?"

"Oh, stars no. He's gorgeous. But, if you see him, give him a good pummeling for me." Cinder said bye, and hung up.

Around her, a sea of people danced. It was absolute pandemonium, and Cinder normally wouldn't want to be here. But, she had a job to do.

She didn't dare step into the crowd, so she stood on top of a fold-out chair and peered above the tops of people's heads.

At first she saw nothing, but then, a figure pushed into a barren spot in the crowd. Cinder caught her breath.

Just as her friend had described, he had black hair, swept across his brow, and the most beautiful pair of chocolate brown eyes that made Cinder want to melt. He really did stick out like a sore thumb.

He was making his way to the fringes of the sea. As he got closer, Cinder thought he didn't really look like someone who would betray his girlfriend, then again, that was probably just his uncanny hotness talking.

Stop it Cinder, she chided herself, you're here to chew this guy out.

So, she stepped off her chair. The guy stepped out of the crowd, and Cinder sidestepped in front of him, blocking his way.

"Wha --?" he said, but Cinder interrupted him ... with a punch.

If you told her that was irrational, totally unnecessary, and dangerous, she'd agree with you. But, her thoughts were a little muddled from anger, and frankly, he was really hot.

The punch knocked him backwards. He stumbled into a young woman. She turned to him, fluttering her eyelashes, but when he lowered his hand from his face, revealing a bloody nose and an eye that was already swelling up, the woman screamed and ran away.

Cinder felt kind of triumphant, watching the guy helplessly wipe under his nose. Her phone pinged, and she pulled it out.

A text from her friend, it said, "here's what he looks like." Underneath was a picture of a handsome young man. A lump formed in Cinder's throat. She looked between the picture, and the guy holding his nose.

"Ohhhhhh." They were completely different people.

"What the heck?" The guy had regained his senses, and stomped to Cinder. The top of her head came up to about his nose. She gulped.

"Well uh, funny story," she stammered. "I got into a fight with you because I thought you were my friend's crappy ex, but you're not. Sorry for the black eye?"
