Rune Factory Seven Minutes in Heaven Vishnal

       “Hmm, for the next player, I will pick.” Amber let her sentence hand as she looked around the room with wide, excited eyes. “I pick you to be the next player.” She nodded, happy with her choice. “Come on, come get your item.”

“Well I have to say, it's about darn time I got a turn. I was getting really bored. But that's okay.” You dropped down from one of the bar-stools and walked over to the little basket of items. There were a lot of interesting things inside, making your choice plenty difficult. After a moment of looking, you finally chose a very plain, white handkerchief. It wasn't embroidered or embellished in any way. This made it almost impossible to guess who the owner was. Giving up before you'd even given it any thought, you turned back to the group and held up the cloth. “Okay, who is the owner, of this item?”

“That handkerchief you hold in your hand would be mine, Miss.” Immediately on his feet, Vishnal stood at attention with his hands stiffly by his side.

This over zealous, excitable attitude of his caused a chuckled to escape your throat. “Well, what are you waiting for, come on.” You walked over to where he was still at attention, grabbed one of his hands and began to gently tug at him. “Don't make me drag you to the closet Vishnal. I will, you know.”

His shoulders relaxed the moment you took his hand and a bright smile appeared on his kind face. “I don't doubt that a bit.” Believing that you would use force with him if necessary, Vishnal willingly, and happily walked with you into the tidy little closet. After helping you down to a seated position, he shut the door and joined you on the floor. His face was already a deep shade of red.

“Wow, are you really already blushing?” More curious than you probably should have been, you reached your hands to his face, and held his cheeks in your hand. “Yup, that is definitely a blush you've got going on there. A pretty bad one too.” You dropped your hands from his face and nodded. “Your cheeks are actually hot.”

“This is a completely new situation for me, so I don't doubt it a bit.” He smiled wide, despite his obvious embarrassment. “But, it is my duty as a butler, to do my best, no matter what the challenge may be.” He placed his hand over his heart and nodded. “Rest assured Miss, I will do everything in my power to keep from disappointing you.” A second of silence passed before he spoke again, when he did however, it sounded like he was trying to keep himself from laughing. “You'll just have to tell me what it is that I should be doing.”

Not being one that was easily embarrassed, you answered him in a very straightforward fashion. “Well, I think kissing would work. I mean for now at least.”

“O-oh, well then. I will admit, I wasn't expecting that to be your answer.” He cleared his throat and nervously tugged on his collar. Only a second later, a fairy, determined look filled his eyes. “I will not fail!” Though he had technically warned you, you weren't at all ready for his actions. Overpowered by his adrenaline, Vishnal pulled you into his arms and kissed you. Even more surprising than the kiss itself was the fact that it wasn't at all awkward. Actually, it was pretty enjoyable.

When the kiss ended however, the suppressed awkwardness finally appeared. Strangely enough, even you were feeling the effects. Unable to stand the silence any longer, you began to laugh. “Well Vishnal, I've got to say, you passed the kissing portion of the task with flying colours, no doubt. But man, oh man did it get weird after that.”

“It did get pretty weird at the end, didn't it?” Vishnal furrowed his brows together, but managed to smile. “I'll just have to try harder on that part next time.”

You leaned in close to him with a wide, mischievous grin on your face “Next time huh? So I guess it's safe to say that you're already thinking about kissing me again? Weird, I never would have guessed that you were such a pervert.”

Vishnal quickly shook his head, his face even more red than it was before.“That's not what I meant. It just came out wrong.” While he was trying, and failing to convince you that he wasn't a pervert, Amber opened the door and peeked in curiously.

With your turn now over, you stood onto your feet and sent him a teasing wink just before you excited the room. “It's really okay Visnal, you don't have to lie to me. I don't mind if you're a pervert.”
