FFVII: Cait Sith/Aeris

They stared at each other from across the gondola. The silence was palpable, punctuated only by the groan of the guidewire and, faintly, the sound of far-off calliope music.

It was Cait's fault, really. What the hell had he been thinkin', knocking on Aeris's hotel door like that? He was a mechanical cat, and she was a beautiful lady. Deep down in his cybernetic heart, Cait had known it wouldn't work out, but still, he was nothing if not stubborn. Why she had actually agreed to his hemming, hawing request, well, that was one mystery not even Cait Sith's fortunes could give the answer to.

She was bein' so nice to him as well, so patient. Other folks had pointed and whispered when they walked by on their stroll, but Aeris never seemed to take him anything but seriously. Cait wanted to tell her how much he appreciated it - bein' a toy cat, you didn't get much respect in the world - but for once he didn't have the words.

He sputtered, made a few false starts, and finally blurted out the first thing that came into his head.

"Y--You smell really darned nice, y'know that, lady?"

The tinkling laughter of his companion made Cait feel a little better about sounding so dumb. When she kissed him on the top of his furry head, he ceased to worry at all and promptly burst a spring in happiness.
