Extra Moments [Joke Fic]

Inspiration: Guy I'd Kinda Be Into

The performers gathered for practice for the show that Sarah Hadley had organized. Most had been getting along when Taeon, one of the singers for Phoenixfire Productions had pulled the traveling bard, Levv aside.

"I see you getting along with Julia. I'm gonna help you catch her eye. Got it?" The man smirked, leaving the bard confused.

"Ok.. I'm not sure how that will work?" Levv tilted his head to the left.

"She's over in the practice stage. Go talk to her." Taeon pat his head then vanished in an over the top rainbow cloud of smoke.

Julianna waved at Levv and the two sat down as she took a drink. The quiet was uncomfortable when Levv felt a presence near by, but before he could comment Julia began speaking.

[JULIANNA:]
Say there's this person you pass in the hall every day
You've known him since seventh day
You're used to thinking about him in a certain way
From the persona that he displayed

Then something changes, and he changes

From a guy that you'd never be into
Into a guy that you'd kinda be into
From a guy that I'd never be into
Into a guy that I'd kinda be into

Is he worth it?
Levvy?
Is he?

[LEVV:]
Is she talking about me?

[TAEON:]
Of course she is. I've been activating your pheromones. Keep it up

[JULIANNA:]
Say there's this person that you never knew that well

[ENSEMBLE:]
She is totally into you

[JULIANNA:]
You thought that you had him pegged, but now you can tell
He's gone from a

[JULIANNA & ENSEMBLE:]
Guy that you'd never be into
Into a guy that you'd kinda be into
From a guy that I'd never be into
Into a guy that I'd kinda be into

[JULIANNA:]
Is he worth it?
Levvy?

[TAEON& LEVV:]
Absolutely

[JULIANNA:]
I don't always relate to other people my age
Except when I'm on the stage
And there are so many changes that I'm going through
And why am I telling this to you?
Guess there's a part of me that wants to

I guess a part of me wants, who knew?
I guess a part of me likes to talk to you
I guess a part of me likes to, who knew?
I guess a part of me likes to sit with you
I guess a part of me likes to, who knew?
I guess a part of me likes to hang with you
I guess a part of me

Back to play rehearsal
I know that it's weird but it's totally true

The guy that I'd kinda be into

[LEVV:]
The guy that you'd kind of be into

[JULIANNA:]
Yeah that

[LEVV & JULIANNA:]
Guy that I'd kinda be into

[JULIANNA:]
Is...
Joe.

The two boys just stared as they slowly pieced together who Joe was... Then it struck...

"The human guard that follows Hadley around?!" Levv's jaw dropped.

"Shh!" Julia covers his mouth.

Levv glanced at Taeon who just vanishes again from sight, the only thing he caught was the guys face turning red.

Husband

Inspiration: Dear Future Husband

The war was coming to a close, most people were celebrating and as such, most were off partying, allowing Charlotte time to just relax without fear of the company breaking something else. Vaul had decided to go meet Charlotte's family and stay the night at her parent's home to get to know them. The dinner had gone alright and the parents seemed to withhold any opinion of the man, but during the night Vaul had been given a small journal that was worn by years of neglect.

"What is this?" Vaul raised an inquiring brow at the father.

Nicholas smirked, "Something you'll need moving forward."

With that the old man went to his room, leaving the confused Vaul in the hall. The confused magi returned to the room to find his lover asleep. Sighing, he lit a candle to set near by as he began to skim over the books contents.

Dear future husband
Here's a few things
You'll need to know if you wanna be
My one and only all my life
Take me on a date
I deserve a break
And don't forget the flowers every anniversary
'Cause if you'll treat me right
I'll be the perfect wife
Buying groceries
Buying what you need
You got that nine to five
But so should I
So don't be thinking I'll be home and baking apple pies
I never learned to cook!

You gotta know how to treat me like a lady
Even when I'm acting crazy
Tell me everything's alright.


Vaul stared at the pages before he began to chuckle under his breath, hearing movement he closed the journal and tucked it in his bag before changing to join Char in bed. 

The next day before the two were heading home, he convinced her to follow him out to the lake with no real reason behind it. Charlotte found herself surprised to see he had arranged a blanket and picnic basket for the occassion.

"What's all this?" She tilts her head as she looked at him as he gave her a fresh picked flower.

"Just thought you deserved it." He kissed her forehead.

Her smile lit up but she was still confused by the sudden show.

Later when they returned, Charlotte had left to handle some work at the base. While she was away, Vaul began reading more of the book.

Dear future husband
If you wanna get that special lovin'
Tell me I'm beautiful each and every night 

After every fight
Just apologize
And maybe then I'll let you try and rock my body right
Even if I was wrong
You know I'm never wrong
Why disagree?


He continued chuckling to himself as he shook his head, why had she written this so long ago? He continued flipping pages.
 
Dear future husband
Make time for me
Don't leave me lonely
And know we'll never see your family more than mine

I'll be sleeping on the left side of the bed (hey)
Open doors for me and you might get some kisses
Don't have a dirty mind
Just be a classy guy
Buy me a ring


At the mention of the ring, he began to ponder and look at his old journals for dates. It had already been several years...
