My Mistakes Started With You

Mistake number 11

At this moment, Xeha felt incredible awkward. At least the cat's providing him some comfort. He sighed into the soft fur and the creature purred. Good thing she wasn't heavy. "Did you and Xig get into a fight?" Too busy in his own thoughts, Jane was able to sneak next to him. He didn't really have an answer for her other than, "something like that."

Jane tangled a hand around his, carefully so he didn't drop Alice. "No worries hun, Xig always get like that. Now, don't let him ruin your day now. You're supposed to be enjoying this festival with us."

'Don't let him ruin your day'

It was actually the other way around.Glancing back, he caught Xigbar's stare right in the eye. Glancing down, he saw the goat plush he threw. Xeha decided that he'd approach him to apologise later. When his storm of emotions settled down and he could finally breathe. "You're right." Who knew that the 3J -well at least one of them- could get him so sentimental.

"I'm always right!" And there goes the image. "Say, those would look absolutely adorable on you!" She pointed at a stall promoting all types of colourful clothing. "Let's go check em out!" She pulled Xeha towards to stalls with a force that he shouldn't be so surprised at this point. "Wa-ait Jane! It says no pets allowed!"

The sun was almost sinking at the peak of horizon.

There were a lot of things he learnt from this whole extravagance. And by extravagance he actually meant chaos! The Js get what they want, when or wherever they go. Even then it still had to suit their taste. Sure, they had the looks but the way they bargained wasn't play house. Money wasn't nearly a problem, Xeha had acknowledged that all of them were wealthy. 'Damn rich kids'. But that didn't excuse Jennifers lack of manners or appropriate approach. There was one time at a stall where she threatened to burn it down and blame it on dog piss.

Xehanort didn't know what she was capable of but he'd rather not get between any of that. Oh no sir, he still had so much dignity to live for.

However, out of all that there was some good that he didn't mind knowing. Jane had a dream of wanting to indulge more into the world of fashion. She mentioned that being a fashion designer was her goal. That creating different types of trends was her passion. Hence, explaining how Xeha and the other two would be her lad rats for the time being. Jasmine was keen on making sure the people around them knew their place. As mean as it sounds, her presence itself was life threatening. Why Xeha was at feet mile radius from her? Should've run while he had the chance. Now he's stuck, so might as well make the best of it.

Jennifer is Jennifer. She gets what she wants, no matter what. Be it jewellery, clothes and people. She apparently has power over them. Jane explained to him that it has something to do with her dad, whoever he was. Xeha would find out later anyways.

The sun was slowly sinking. Xigbar hadn't said a word the whole time. He must think that Xehanort was still upset for whatever reason he was oblivious to. So all he did was keep quiet and watch over the girls.... and Xeha, in case of any unwanted company.

The 3Js hadn't ignored him completely, there were still tons of snarky comments here and there. Xig just responded normally. And normal was already a concerning level to the girls. That is until Jennifer nudged him hard at his ribs. Had him jolt back and almost letting go of Alice. "Oppss... didn't mean to hit ya that hard. So, barely a day with us and already a heartbreaker eh?" She had this wicked smirk on her face that would be a sign to 'run' before it was too late. But no, not for Xehe it wasn't. So he played along, "I have no clue what you're talking about."
