Title: Wish Upon A Star
Series: Slayers
Characters: Lina/Gourry
Rating: PG
Prompt: Stars



Lina happily popped another tiny chocolate star in her mouth. She and Gourry had each bought their own little bag from the chocolate shop. "These chocolates are awesome! I can't decide which I like better, the white or the dark chocolate."

Gourry chewed on his star thoughtfully and made no reply.

"Hey, are you listening?" Lina demanded.

Gourry swallowed as they turned the next corner. "Sorry, I was just trying to make a wish."

Lina blinked as she reached for a star that was a swirled combination of dark and white chocolate. "A wish?"

"Yeah," Gourry replied as he fingered another star. "When I was a kid, a friend told me that making a wish while eating a chocolate star is the same as making a wish on a regular one."

"Oh, really," Lina replied amused. "And did your wish come true?"

Gourry shook his head sadly. "Nah, I've eaten ten of these and your breasts still aren't any bigger."

After Lina whacked him on the head, he couldn't help but wonder if the stars he saw would work any better.
