Writer's P.O.V:
Four years have passed since Mac and Flow were paired up together as weapon and Meister, the two have now become great friends, and are amongst the lower ranking classes in the D.W.M.A, meant for younger and less skilled students, while Dixie, Swift and Sky are all in the highest ranking class, where only the most skilled weapons and Meisters are in (Sky still doesn't have a weapon, just so you know, but he's strong enough without one to be honest).
"Hey did you guys hear that Auntie Patty's pregnant?" Swift asked as her and the others were sitting on the steps of the entrance to the D.W.M.A, not long after school had finished for the day.
"Really?" Dixie asked.
"Yep, she called my Mum earlier this morning and told her all about it," Swift explained.
"How come we didn't know about this until now?" Dixie asked.
"Yeah, after all we do live in the same house as you, Uncle Soul and Auntie Liz," Mac added.
"Well Mum did tell your Mum and Dad about it, and she did tell me to tell you and Mac, but I guess I kinda forgot," Swift smiled nervously as she turned away from her Meister slightly.
"Well I say it's about time, they've been married for a while now, and we're all grown up, well apart from Mac and Flow," Sky pointed out, as he sat back on the step that he was sitting on.
"What do you mean Sky? You're only 16 remember," Dixie reminded the younger teen as she smirked to him.
"Hey I'm almost 17 you know," Sky glared to the older Meister slightly, while the Reaper just smirked to him again.
"Hey Sis, just how did Auntie Patty get pregnant?" Mac asked as he looked to his older sister.
"Err…well…" the older Reaper paused slightly as she wondered if she should tell her ten year old little brother about the 'Birds and the Bees' just yet.
"Go on Dix, tell them," Swift nudged her Meister's arm as she and Sky smirked to the older teen.
"I'll tell you when you're older Mac," Dixie stated, while she rolled her eyes at her weapon.
"Aww," Mac pouted slightly, while Flow did the same, as she was also wondering about the question that her Meister had asked his older sister, before the two went back to talking to each other happily.
"Aww, why didn't you tell them Dixie?" Sky asked.
"Don't you know where babies come from?" Swift asked in a mocking voice.
"Of course I do, I just don't think mac and Flow are old enough to be told about that stuff yet, besides their parents or teachers should be the ones to tell them, not me," Dixie stated.
"Well you're an adult aren't you?" Sky asked.
"Yes, but I'm only 18, plus Swift is the same age as me remember," Dixie replied with a slight sigh to the younger Meister.
"So does that I can tell them about it?" Swift asked.
"No it does not!" Dixie stated sternly as she glared to her weapon.
Swift smiled nervously as it was obvious that her and Sky had angered their older friend now, and it would be best to not push her any further.
Dixie's P.O.V:
This happens on a daily basis for me now, it was okay when it was just Swift teasing me like this, after all she's been doing that ever since we were young so I've gotten used to it, but now Sky normally decides to join in and adds to my annoyance.
Honestly sometimes I think it would be better if Swift had been paired up with Sky as her Meister, instead of me, but then again Swift probably wouldn't be able to match Sky's strong and complex soul wavelength, to be honest it's surprising how well she can match mine, since I'm not only stronger than Sky, but there is also the fact that Reaper souls are much more powerful than humans, plus I'm a female, who are much stronger and smarter than male Reapers.
Writer's P.O.V:
"Hey don't you girls ever think of getting boyfriends or something?" Sky asked, changing the subject so to not anger the older Meister more.
"You're one to talk Sky, when did you last have a girlfriend?" Swift asked.
"Hey I had a girlfriend not too long ago,"
"Right and how long did that relationship last again?" Swift asked with a slight smirk.
"About a week," Sky mumbled slightly as he looked away from Swift.
"Exactly," Swift replied, while Dixie just chuckled slightly.
"But come on, even your little brother is with someone," Sky pointed out as he looked to Dixie.
"Sky, Flow and Mac are parents, so it's no wonder that they're close," Dixie stated.
"Yeah, besides who needs relationships, they're boring," Swift added as she lay back on the step that she was sitting on and folded her arms behind her head.
"Let me guess, you're too cool for boyfriends right?" Dixie asked with a slight smile to her weapon.
"You know it," Swift replied with a smile back to her Meister.
"Well it's getting late, I should head home," Sky stated as he stood up from the step that he had been sitting on and stretched slightly.
"Bye Sky," Dixie waved to the younger Meister.
"Later," Swift said, while Sky started to walk back home.
"Hey Sis can I walk Flow home?" Mac asked as he and Flow stood up from the steps, and looked to the older Reaper.
"What? No, you can't walk home on your own Mac, you and Flow are only young," Dixie stated as she looked to her little brother with a slightly concerned look on her face.
"Sis we're not that young," Mac stated.
"Yeah Dixie, we can take care of ourselves for a bit," Flow added with a smile to the older Reaper.
"No, something could happen to you two," Dixie was completely against the two younger students walking home on their own as she stood up from the steps, and was ready to lead the two to their home's.
"Come on Dix just let them go, it's not that late, and besides Flow's house and the mansion are practically round the corner from here," Swift stated as she sat back up on the step and looked to her Meister, trying to reason with her.
Dixie looked to her weapon for a moment, before she looked back to her little brother and his weapon, "Fine, but stay clear of the dark allies, and stick to the open streets, but stay on the pavement, and-
"Dix, they'll be fine," Swift cut her Meister off as she smiled to her.
"Okay, go on you two," Dixie stated as she nodded to her weapon, before she smiled to her little brother.
"YAY! Thanks Sis," Mac smiled happily as he gave Dixie a quick hug, before he and Flow happily set off for their homes together.
"But go straight home after you drop Flow off, no detours Mac," Dixie called to her brother as she knew what he could be like sometimes.
"Got it!" Mac called back, before he and Flow started to walk faster, and were soon out of sight.
"Dix you can't protect him forever you know," Swift stated as she looked to her worried Meister.
"I know, but you can't blame me for being worried right?" Dixie smiled nervously to her weapon, as she sat back down beside her on the steps again.
"I guess not," Swift replied with a smile back to her Meister.
"I'm tired," Dixie sighed as she lay back on the steps and folded her arms behind her head, while slowly closing her eyes.
"Being a big sister is a tough job huh?" Swift chuckled with a smile to her Meister.
"You don't know the half of it Swift," Dixie replied, while Swift went silent for a minute.
"Hey Dix, can I ask you something?" Swift asked nervously as she slightly looked away from her Meister.
"Sure, what is it?" Dixie opened her eyes as she looked back to her weapon.
Swift moved back on the steps slightly, as she came closer to Dixie, and looked to her again, "Just keep your eyes closed for a minute alright, don't open them until I tell you to,"
"Okay," Dixie nodded as she closed her eyes again, feeling a little uneasy around her weapon now.
Swift took a deep breath, before she leaned down to the older girl.
Dixie's P.O.V:
I didn't know what to expect from Swift as I lay back and waited for her to tell me that I could open my eyes. I could slightly feel her breath on my lips at one point, which made me wonder just how close to me she was right now, I hadn't really heard her move, so she couldn't have been that close, right? I was so very wrong.
My eyes immediately opened wide as I felt Swift's lips slightly brush against mine, I could taste Swift's strawberry flavoured lip-loss, making my lips tingle and causing my heart to start racing in my chest. The kiss didn't last all that long, as a second later I felt Swift bite my bottom lip slightly, before she broke the light kiss and looked to me.
"I didn't say you could open your eyes yet," Swift whispered as she looked close to tears.
"Swift?" I looked to Swift with a wondering look, before I froze up slightly, as Swift stroked my cheek with one hand.
I shivered under Swift's slight touch as she leaned down to me more, "Close your eyes Dix," I was too surprised and confused as to what was going on to do as Swift told me.
However when Swift pressed her lips against mine again, I instantly closed my eyes and trembled slightly at the sudden kiss. I could hear myself moan slightly as I felt Swift slip her tongue into my mouth, biting my bottom lip slightly before she broke the kiss again.
"You can open your eyes now," Swift whispered before I could feel her peck my cheek lightly. I slowly opened my eyes, looking to my weapon, while I feel a light blush covering my cheeks.
Swift smiled down to me slightly, as she stroked my cheek again, before moving away from me and looked down at the floor, "Swift?" I whispered as I sat back up and looked concerned to my weapon.
"I'm Sorry Dix," she whispered back, with a sad smile, before she stood up and took off running.
"WAIT SWIFT!" I called to her with a worried look.
She stopped for a minute, but didn't turn to look at me, and simply took off running again and within what seemed like a second, she was out of my sight.
I sighed slightly as I blushed deeply, and touched my lips with two fingers, noticing that I could still slightly taste Swift's strawberry flavoured lip-loss on my lips, making them tingle again.
'Where did that come from?' I wondered.
….
Writer's P.O.V:
"So where's your sister Mac?" Maka asked her son as the two and Kid were setting the table in the dining room, while Liz, and Soul were busy making everyone's dinner in the kitchen (Swift was in her bedroom waiting for dinner to be ready).
"Don't know I thought she would have been home by now," Mac stated.
As if on cue Maka and Kid heard the front double doors of the mansion open, "Speak of the devil," Kid smiled as Dixie walked into the dining room, not looking to her parents or her little brother.
"Hey girly are you joining us for dinner by any chance?" Maka asked as she smiled to her daughter.
"No thanks, I'm not hungry," Dixie stated, before she turned and went upstairs to her bedroom, slamming her door behind her.
Maka looked to her husband worriedly, wondering what could be bothering their daughter.
"I'll go and get her," Kid nodded with a smile to his wife, before he left the dining room, and went upstairs.
"What's wrong with Sis Mum?" Mac asked as he looked to his Mother with a wondering expression.
"I'm not sure," Maka replied with a slight sigh.
….
Dixie's P.O.V:
She kissed me. Why did she kiss me? I mean it was easy to tell that that kiss wasn't just her teasing me, she looked close to tears when I looked at her. So what did that mean? Does she like me as more than just a partner and friend or something? If so she could've just told me, she didn't need to kiss me like that.
I paced back and forth in my bedroom, trying to work out what had just happened a minute ago between Swift and me in my head. I sighed slightly as I slumped down onto my bed, before I heard a light knocking on my door.
"Hey Dix, can I come in?" It was my Dad as he opened the door slightly and smiled to me.
I just nodded with a smile back to him, while he opened the door more and walked into my room, closing the door behind him, "Aren't you coming down for dinner?"
"I already said that I'm not hungry Dad," I stated as I turned away from my Dad, and lay down on my stomach on my bed.
I could feel my bed move slightly as my Dad sat down on the edge of it, without even looking to him, I knew he was smiling at me.
"I was surprised to hear that you let Mac and Flow walk home on their own, that doesn't sound like the protective older sister that I know," my Dad stated, he always knows how to distract me from things that are bothering me.
But this time it wasn't enough. I didn't reply to him as just sighed again slightly, while burying my head into my pillow.
"You know Swift came home a few minutes ago, she didn't seem like herself she just said 'Hi', asked when dinner was going to be ready, and then went to her bedroom. And something is obviously bothering you, did something happen between you two?" my Dad asked.
I never can keep a secret from my Dad. I slowly sat up on my bed, and looked to my Dad, wishing that my bed could just sallow me right now, so that I wouldn't have to tell my Dad about what had happened between Swift and me.
I took a deep breath, and looked away from my Dad, "Swift kissed me," I confessed in a low tone.
"She kissed you?" Dad sounded surprised as it was obvious that what I said had caught him off guard.
"On the lips," I added with a slight nod in reply.
"Well that's unexpected, do you think she has feelings for you?"
"I don't know, she didn't really tell me she did, she just kissed me, and then ran off home, without giving me any sort of explanation," I explained as I thought about Swift looking to me with those tear-filled, ruby red eyes, and sighed again.
"Are you sure she wasn't just teasing you like she normally does?" Dad asked.
"No this was different, if she was just teasing me she would've just smirked to me like she always does, but when I looked to her after she kissed me, she looked close to tears," I stated, now looking back to my Dad again. I had never seen Swift like that, maybe she was scared to tell me about her feelings, maybe she thought I would reject her.
"Well do you have feelings towards her?" Dad asked a question I didn't expect him to ask me.
"No, I don't know, I've never really thought about it before," I said, not really knowing how to answer.
"Well I'll tell you what, I'll leave you alone for a bit, and you can decide how you feel about all this," Dad stated as he put his arm around and brought me into a hug.
"Okay," I replied as I closed my eyes for a minute, while I sat in my Dad's caring embrace.
My Dad let me go and kissed me on my forehead, while I smiled to him slightly, before he stood up from my bed, and walked to the door, "Just come down if you want any dinner alright?"
I simply just nodded to him slightly, while he looked to me with a smile, "Dad" I called to him just before he was about open the door.
"Yes?" he looked to me.
"Don't tell Mum, or anyone about this alright?" I asked, knowing that my Dad was much better at keeping secrets then I was.
"My lips are sealed," he smiled to me as he opened the door.
"Thanks Dad," I replied with a smile back to him, before he left my room, and closed the door behind him.
I sighed slightly, before I touched my lips with two fingers again, remembering the feel of Swift's lips pressed against mine as I blushed deeply. I clenched my T-shirt slightly with my other hand as I felt a slight ache in my chest, and noticed something,
'Why is my heart beating so fast?' I wondered.
