“What the hell?!”
“AAH!” Mimi screamed again, immediately letting go trying to regain her balance. The thing she just grabbed, talked (or better yet, screamed).
“Mimi?” she squinted; the voice sounded awfully familiar, and since it wasn’t Maleficent shrieking voice, it had to be--
“Riku?” she asked, almost in a whisper. He laughed.
“So now you’re trying to tell me you’re really clumsy as well?” It was Riku, cracking jokes at her as he was before. Though she was certain he wouldn’t see it, she threw a dirty look, but it formed into a small smile, unable to hide that she was happy to see him.
“Seems like you got your foot stuck somewhere, here,” he grabbed her tenderly by the waist, and heaved her up onto the step in which he was on. For once in her life, Mimi was glad that it was basically total darkness, for she could feel her face flame up, and she was sure it was a nice shade of pink right about now. “They said that I could find you down here, figured I’d pay you a visit, but I had no idea you’d try to run me over!” he continued, laughing, and completely unaware at Mimi’s embarrassment.
“I…I was just going out to the rooftop for some fresh air, that’s all!” she defended. Even in the darkness, she felt as if she could see Riku’s smirk.
“Suuure. Well, do you want me to hold your hand so you don’t fall?” he added teasingly. Mimi gave him a rough shove as she made her way up the stairs.
“Keep it up and I’ll shove you down, and if I’m lucky you’ll break your neck!” Riku darted up, following her as they made their way to the top, the candle now barely visible.
“O come on, I was just teasing! Let me join you if you don’t have anything else to do. I know I don’t…” he laughed. She glared, but her small smile was still visible.
“O if you’d like, but anymore jokes like that and I might just push you off.”
