Summary: Can outside help gain a man his heart’s desire? Hmm…. Good question.
He dangled the tiny bit of red charm and studied it. He cocked his head one way, then he cocked his head the other. He looked at it from the front, he looked at it from the back. He even looked at it from the sides. Still…
He just couldn't see how its magic worked.
It was supposed to bring good luck to its holder - good luck towards the heart's fondest desire. It would be wonderful if it were true, and he dearly hoped it was, but still -
How could he tell if it worked?
He stared at the little red object in his hand. He stared at his heart’s desire. Then he stared at the little red object again.
With a sigh, he supposed there was only one way to tell. Gearing up his courage, he approached his heart’s desire and proceeded to do the only thing he could think of.
Rub, rub, rub…
Proof was immediate.
SLAP!
“Houshi-sama!”
The angry cry was accompanied by an even angrier glare before his heart’s desire stormed away, leaving him with a newly aching cheek.
Well, he had his answer - the charm didn't work!
He wondered if he could get a refund from the charm seller by claiming a defective product. What good was the charm if it did nothing to bring him his heart's desire?
Then again, maybe it was due to wishful hormones and an overactive imagination but -
Had her slap seemed just a tad…lighter than usual?
Hmm…
Perhaps he would hold onto the tiny charm a little bit longer.
Just in case.

Written for the week 14 "Lucky" drabble challenge at ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/community.gif) iyfic_challenge. Third place - yay! I have to note these things otherwise I'm going to lose track.
Hmm, but it seems ff.net is screwing up my formatting when uploading drabbled. So I'll be mirroring drabbles here again so I can remember what they should look like. *sigh* And it's been so long since I last posted to this. I was beginning to think I couldn't write anything short anymore. ;D

too cute.
Yeah, I seem to be in cute writing mode lately. Probably when it blows over, there's going to be a period of angst galore to make up for it. In the back of my mind is the desire to write something dark.
But the sugar right now is still running on high. =p |
