Christmas Crisis [AddxElesis]

Christmas Crisis

All characters are in their base jobs, so...

Elesis and Add are 16~

-

"Merry Christmas."

A certain redhead woman stood by a slouching boy sitting on a bench.

"Go away."

Add looked away, leaning onto the bench, hiding half of his face behind his scarf. Elesis observed him before she sat down beside him.

The white haired boy wore a thick white coat, with cat ears on the hood, and grey colored fur on the lining of the hood, with a black pair of jeans and brown leather boots. And he also had a backpack with him.

"Aw, don't be like that. Or else Santa will put you on the naughty list." Elesis teased with a grin.

"Santa doesn't exist." Rolling his eyes, Add faced the redhead and observed her afterwards.

"Stop killing children's dreams." Elesis crossed her arms

She had her hair down instead of the usual ponytail, red ear mufflers, a knitted scarf, a maroon coat, black mittens, black skirt with leggings underneath and black leather boots with fur on the rim.

"What are you here for anyways? Shouldn't you be at the party?"

"Well..." She placed a gift-wrapped box on top of her lap. "The party is being held back for sometime."

It was silent after that. Clearly, Add didn't care about it. But he hated the suffocation of silence happening right now.

"Why?"

It took a moment to get a response for her.

"The Christmas tree burned down, Rena fainted and the special recovery potion for the tree and Rena means going back to the village." Elesis sighed. "You know how far that is, right?" She said followed by mumbling words that were mostly muffled, but Add heard "--the culprit is gonna buy it" and "--dead meat to Rena--"

"Let me guess. Your brother did it?"

"..."

Add smirked and couldn't help but snicker.

"I'm taking that as a yes."

"We're never gonna use fragile light orbs again." Elesis sighed, moving nearer to Add.

As their shoulders touched, the redhead entwined her fingers with his. Add gripped hers dearly.

They stayed like this for awhile, close together so they can provide warmth for each other. They both silently observed the snowflakes falling.

But soon, Add felt a weight on his left shoulder and saw Elesis had fallen asleep.

He wanted to wake her up, but seeing her innocent, peaceful look on her face, it made him stay for awhile.

Until a cold gust of wind passed by.

"Oi, wake up." Add shook her shoulders, but she didn't budge. But thanks to his dynamos that were well-hidden under the bench, she wasn't really sleeping at all.

He smirked.

"If you don't wake up, I'll..." he trailed off to think.

"-kiss you."

He was pretty sure that Elesis's mouth twitched.

Sighing, he leaned towards Elesis, foreheads touching. He stayed like this for awhile, until Elesis gave in and opened her eyes, frowning and pouting.
