White Christmas

"No."

"Awe, come on Leon! Please, for me!"

"...No."

Leon, Zack, Cloud, and you were waiting outside of the store for Tifa  to finish shopping. Zack was hanging on Leon, doing his best puppy-dog face to convince him as Leon kept his arms crossed.

"Er, Cloud? What is Zack asking Leon to do?" you asked.

Cloud chuckled. "Well, you know how you and the girls wanted us to go caroling?"

You smiled. "So Tifa's making you go?"

"...Yes." He shook his head. "But that's beside the point. Since Leon doesn't have a girlfriend guilt-tripping him into going, Zack is trying to convince him to go."

"...Zack is going?!"

He laughed. "Yes. He heard Naminé is going so he wanted to impress her, but wants a wingman. And I obviously want to part of that, so he's desperately going for Plan B."

"Ah, I see..." You stifled a laugh looking at Leon ignoring Zack literally hanging off his arm. "I think caroling will be fun. I've only ever seen people do it in movies, so I'm excited!"

"So you'll definitely be there?" Cloud asked.

You looked back at him and nodded enthusiastically. "Definitely!"

Cloud smirked and looked back at Leon. "Interesting..."

You were about to ask what's interesting when Tifa came out with three bags of stuff and you watched Cloud hang his head.

"Tifa, how many ornaments did you buy?!" Cloud asked exasperated. You laughed as she handed the bags to Cloud to hold.

She grinned. "Enough," she said, winking at you. "You get the other two so we can hit the grocery store for Christmas Eve dinner."

You nodded and headed over to Zack and Leon. "We have to stop at the grocery store next." You smiled at them both. "Did you convince him, Zack?"

Zack hung his head in shame. "No..."

"Caroling is lame. I wouldn't be caught dead doing that."

Zack sighed. "You think a guy'd help out his friend, but you'd be wrong."

You giggled and looked at Leon. "Well you can't force him to do anything he doesn't want to do. We'll definitely miss you though, Leon."

He looked down at you. "You're going, [Name]?"

You nodded, beaming. "Yeah, I can't wait! I've never gone caroling, and it really puts you in the Christmas spirit, you know? I mean, Christmas is only two days away and it hasn't felt like Christmas all year." You frowned, looking around at the gloomy weather. It had been raining all week and only stopped about a day ago. The weather was a mild 40° and the heaviest thing you had on was a light sweater. "I wish it would snow..."

"I don't, cause then I end up shoveling the whole block!" Zack despaired. "I should move to a street with less old people..."

You laughed. "Well, anyways, I'll be your wingwoman for Naminé, Zack."
