A/N: I just wanted to say that I am doing a couple , "Into the Woods" inspired chapters. I am starting with one based on the song "Agony", as you can tell by the name of the chapter. I wasn t going to publish this, like I normally do (not publish what I write), but my friend @Animereadvideogames begged my to. I get that this is not very good but it was meant for comic relief. Here is actually the picture she drew of this fanfic, (Lucas on the left, Nixon on the right.)

Nixon's POV
One of my favorite places to hang out is the pond in the park. It is secluded, quiet and best of all peaceful. I come here just about every day and just think, and occasionally... okay every day I sing. What is also amazing about this place is I have never seen anyone visit but me. I enjoy looking at the flowers and listening to the mini waterfall rustle the smell of nature overwhelming me.
I just came from a renaissance fair with Gyllien, Charlotte, and Lucas so I am still in full costume. I think about Gyllien a lot here, and the relationship we have. We practically share everything we have with each other, but I haven't shown her this place yet. We are, I guess, technically "Boyfriend" and "Girlfriend", but my grandma doesn't know about it because she is so strict. I have these certain rules I have to follow, and I can't date until I am at least twenty-seven!
I slip down onto the ground and let my fingers glide atop the water, the warm fall water making me smile. I watch a leaf flutter from a tree when I hear a twig snap behind me. I turn around and unsheath my sword. Ready to do my best attack I stand ready to pounce at the intruder, then I notice that it is just Lucas. How'd he find me here?
"Woah, man be cool. I just got lo- oh hey Nixon." he says, cutting himself off. He, just like me, was still dressed up in his Prince costume from the renaissance fair.
"How'd you find this place?" I ask him.
"I don't know actually I was walking and I stumbled upon it by accident."
"Oh." I respond, sheathing my sword once more.u
"What are YOU doing here?" Lucas inquired.
"U-um... t-this is my f-favorite place to hang out and unwind." I say looking at the ground. "I like to think a lot here, it's very relaxing."
"What do you think about?" he asks.
"About how I am technically betraying my grandmother by dating Gyllien." I say, a blush growing on my face.
"Aw," Lucas says, "he is finally becoming rebellious. Only problem... he feels resentment. But hey, all jokes aside I get it. I mean Charlotte's dad LOTHES me." he says attempting to cheer me up. "Every time I go to her house he just stares at me like he wants to murder me. I can tell he didn't want us to date and it makes me uncomfortable, he has even actually threatened me! I mean it causes me such... such anguish... such distress... such..."
"Agony?" I suggest.
"Yes." he replies slowly. I see the light shift through the trees as of to form a spotlight. Just then Lucas runs into the pond and slides on his knees on the rocks, water splashing all around him. He shakes the water from his hair and in one swift movement rips his shirt open and sings at the top of his lungs... "AGONY!"
All of a sudden I run into the pond as well, water splashing. I find a rock and slide on my knees, not used to this I grab my shirt and tug, awkwardly ripping it open. Then in my best singing voice I sing, "AGONY!"
"Now do you feel better?" Lucas asks, still basking in the sun's glow.
"Y-yeah actually." i respond. I see Lucas's ear twitch and he turns his head. I heard it too, a giggle... no two giggles, coming from the woods. "Who is there?" asks Lucas hand on his shirkins, ready to attack. We see two heads pop up from behind a bush. One with dark hair, bear ears, and a crown, and one with light hair, yellow fox ears and a maid's headband.
"It's just Charlotte and Gyllien." I say. More giggles result, and then they reveal all their heads.
"We liked your little dance routine." Gyllien says, finally releasing a loud laugh she was obviously holding in. She looks at me and we share a smile, then I see her glance down at my are chest and I blush, she mirrors.
"Thanks I have been working on it for a while." says Lucas, winking at Charlotte. She smiles at the ground, her face turning red. She glances at his chest and turns even redder, if that's even possible.
"Hey, Lucas do you want to go get something to eat?" Charlotte requests.
"Sure," Lucas replies walking to her, grabbing her hand. They walk off, hand in hand, through the trees. Now we were alone.
"It's beautiful back here. I can't believe I've never noticed this place before." says Gyllien awestruck at the beauty of the nature around us.
"Yeah, that's why I love it here." I reply, "It reminds me of you."
"Awww." She says tilting her head slightly. She steps closer to me and presses her lips to mine. I melted into the kiss, she pulled away and and grabbed my hand. Together we sit next to the pond and play with the water, and talk.
A/N: 847 words which is shorter then I like my Oneshot to be but who cares! So here you go @Animereadvideogames this is for you! Also I just wanted to thank her for mentioning my contributions to Mistakes, I really enjoy helping, and seeing how you put my nonsense into words!
