Hey guys! Sorry for the super long wait! So sorry! Moving is really a pain...
Anyways...this chapter is short because it's an intro~
Sorry if there are mistakes, the bell's gonna ring aaaany minute now!
Chrona looked down at his neatly folded hands for the umpteenth time, still shocked and amazed. He gazed out of the tiny airplane window, suppressing the childish grin that threatened to escape him.
"Do you like the view?" a girlish voice asked from beside him. Chrona turned to Maka, cracking a wide smile. He nodded fervently.
He was sitting with Maka on the plane because he insisted to Kid that he wanted to sit with his best friend. Kid looked a bit disappointed, but he would get over it, Chrona was sure.
"Hmm...Maka, I'm so excited!" Chrona bounced in his seat gleefully, smiling widely at her. "I've never been on an airplanebefore!"
"You'll have to thank Kid again," Maka smiled warmly.
Chrona thought back to a few weeks prior. Kid had bounded up to him one day after school, smiling broadly.
"Hello," Chrona had smiled sweetly. He hadn't spoken to Kid all day, and was relieved to finally be with him. Kid grinned coyly, holding something behind his back.
"Kid?" Chrona cocked his head curiously. "What's going on?"
"You know how I just so happen to be the son of Shinigami-sama?" Kid continued to smile teasingly, his voice slightly singsong-y. Chrona had stared at Kid quizzically.
"Um...yeah?" Chrona stretched on his tiptoes to see what was behind Kid's back. Kid leaned back, hiding them from his sight. "Um...Kid...? What are those?"
"Your birthday present!" Kid whipped something white and small in front of Chrona's face at the speed of light.
"Eh?" Chrona's eyes tried unsuccessfully to keep up with the blurs of white. "Wait, what? My birthday's...not for another 5 days!" Kid continued to wave them around, taking a strange pleasure in teasing his adorable pink haired companion.
"I know," Kid arced them in the air, dodging Chrona's impatient hands.
"I-I wanna see!" Chrona whined embarrassedly. "Kiiiiiiiiid!"
Finally, Chrona snatched the white blurs from Kid, and held them in focus.
"They're airplane tickets!" Chrona exclaimed. He looked at them in awe, not believing his eyes. "To...Puerto Rico? Isn't that an island?" he looked up at Kid.
Kid smiled again, standing under the shade of the great pillars that bordered the school. "There are eight tickets, first class. I figured you'd want everyone to come along.
"
Chrona's eyes widened, and he fanned out the tickets, counting them aloud.
"Waah! How expensive! Kid, it's too expensive!" Chrona bit his lip nervously.
"What? No, it's not," Kid furrowed his brow, mouth twisting quizzically. He stared at Chrona, waiting for him to say something.
"..." Chrona looked at the tickets again, feeling a tug at his mouth. "Kid..."
"Hm?" Kid looked at him lazily.
"Thank you!" Chrona glomped Kid ecstatically.
And thus, Maka, Soul, Chrona, Kid, Liz, Patty, Tsubaki, and Black Star were all sitting on the plane, being rowdy and doing stupid crap (as usual.)
"And then! Then! I swooped down from the highest building, saving the queen from the killer cannibals!" Black Star's obnoxiously loud voice floated from the seat to the right of Maka and Chrona. Maka groaned and rolled her eyes, putting on the headphones provided by the plane.
"Oh my, Black Star, that sounds very dangerous," Tsubaki's voice sounded strained and kind, and everyone felt pity for her...why she continued to humor Black Star...no one understood...
Chrona smiled and lay back in his seat. He snuck a peak behind him and saw that Kid was asleep. He felt protective of him, and felt very strongly that Kid was probably the best person in the whole world. Contentedly, he went to sleep, realizing that soon, he would be 15 years old.
When the plane landed, everyone filtered out and shielded their eyes against the harsh light. It was remarkably warm, and Chrona could feel the sun tapping his pale, cold face.
He felt a cool hand slip into his, and looked around.
"Kid," he said quietly. Kid was rubbing the sleep out of his eyes, tugging at his button-up shirt.
"It's quite warm," Kid commented. Chrona blushed at first, thinking Kid was referring to his hand. When he realized otherwise, he jumped a bit.
"W-well...this is a tropical island after all!"
"..." Kid smiled gently.
He turned and ruffled Chrona's hair. Chrona swatted at Kid's hands, protesting feebly. He couldn't suppress his smile as he wondered what would happen during their stay.
This was going to be a great trip; he was sure of it.
Chrona was positive...he was going to have a really great birthday!
I'll do my best to update every week! Seriously!
I hope you liked it!
