The humorous romance.

Marry him or marry me
(Spin Doctors “Two Princes”)

Shiryu had suggested starting at the beginning, wherever she felt that may be. Peggi decided the night before was a good starting place.

Because Peggi craved exploration of the city to staying in the mansion with Seiya mulling about, Shun and Hyoga had decided to take her to see a movie under the guise of recon. Tatsumi had not protested in the least, probably finding that there would be much less destruction the longer Peggi was away from the grounds.

After they had purchased tickets, Hyoga had volunteered to tough out the line while Shun and Peggi searched for seats in the crammed theater.

“So, what are we watching again?” Shun asked, fumbling around in his pockets for his ticket. To no avail, movie theater tickets always had a habit of running away at the first possible opportunity.

“Sex drive.” Peggi informed him, pulling out a bag of gummy bears she had stashed in her oversized coat pockets.

“… why?”

“Because it had sex in the title.” Peggi said, holding out the bag for him. Shun looked at it, confused.

“… If you have candy, why is Hyoga standing in line waiting to buy some?”

“Because, Shunikins,” Peggi propped her feet up on the seat in front of her, thankfully still vacant of an occupant. “I couldn’t very well sneak in a drink, now could I?”

At least that was true. “But why is he also buying candy?”

“You really think this is going to last through the trailers, much less the movie?” Peggi shook her head sadly. She shoved some more sugar bears into her mouth. “Kids these days. Don’t understand anything about the proper movie experience.”

“So we’re seeing this movie,” Shun spoke, trying very hard not to feel offended. “Simply on the basis of it having sex in the title.”

“Yep.”

“Why?”

“Because I like sex.”

Shun turned an instant shade of red.

“Really?” Hyoga asked, having just walked up. A smug little look made itself known across his face. “What a coincidence.”

“You like sex too?” Peggi asked, excited and high spirited.

Or simply spotting the soft drink, but either way Peggi was now in an even better mood than she had been twenty seconds before.

“Do I?” Hyoga grinned, hanging Peggi her drink as he took a seat beside her. “I love it.”

“Oh my God,” a girl behind them gasped loudly. “So do I.”

Shun felt very traumatized.

(Halfway through Peggi’s story Shiyu had to remind her that she was retelling her problem, not just every detail leading up to the problem.)

So sometime, about thirty minutes before the movies end, Hyoga had to leave the theater to use the facilities leaving Peggi and Shun alone in the dark.

Where Shun then proceeded to kiss Peggi rather forcefully and with very little experience. Even in the dim light, she saw how flushed with regret and embarrassment he was.

Shun had excused himself and a few moments later Hyoga returned, only to do relatively the same thing with much more experience.

“The walk home,” Peggi said, in her conclusion, “Was very awkward.”

“I’d imagine so…” Shiyu agreed, nodding slightly. Silence echoed for a moment. “I really would like to help you, but…”

“I know, I know…” Peggi sighed, slumping. “You can’t.”

“Well… Yeah.” Shiryu scratched at the back of his head, not coming up with anything through provoking or enlightening in the least. “Well, which do you like more?”

“… both.”

“… well, that’s quite the problem.”

Peggi muttered dark, dangerous words in her own despair.
