Me: I took so long! Gomen!

Tamoe: I wanted to hear about the bondage

Me: That was one of my vocab words last week! I started laughing hysterically and everyone looked at me like I was crazy!

Nagisa: ..Yeaaaa… -steps back-

Me: TEEHEE! Anyway, on with the show!


Chapter 2- Flirt with me?



"So Nagisa, ready for your date?" Shizuma teased, pulling Nagisa onto her lap.

Nagisa blushed, but snuggled into her lover's bosom none the less. "Shizuma, how many times must I tell you, it's not a date. I'm just tutoring Amane-kun in math an hour each night."

Shizuma froze and glared straight ahead of her, at nothing really. "And since when did you start calling her Amane-kun, huh? I bet she just wants to go to Spica's dorm so I can't intrude on her trying to seduce you."

"Shizuma! She wouldn't!" Nagisa broke away from her lover's grasp and run across the room. "Amane-kun wouldn't do that! And she has Hikari, in case you forgot!"

Shizuma threw her head back in laughter and when she brought it back up; one playful smirk graced the features of her face. "Nagisa," she said, standing up and taking a step towards said girl, "if I had Hikari, I'd be bored. Do you ever see them together? Of course you do; let me rephrase that... Do you ever see them acting like lovers? Like we do? Kissing, hugging, or sneaking off like we do, huh? She probably wants you, since your much more...out there."

Nagisa shook her head and ran past Shizuma. She turned back once she had reached the door and said, "Shizuma! Don't say those things about Amane-kun! She's just nice, okay?!" And with that, she turned and slammed the door behind her.

Shizuma was shocked. Nagisa had never raised her voice at her before. Maybe she was growing up…or maybe something was going on that she didn't want Shizuma to know about. Instead of running after get girlfriend, she sighed and jumped back onto her bed. "No Amane-kun is stealing my Nagisa, that's one thing I know for sure."

--

Nagisa marched down the halls of the strawberry dorms in an angry fit. 'How dare she say those things about Amane-kun! Amane would never do that, and she loves Hikari very much! But...I got so mad. I've never yelled at Shizuma like I did, I hope she won't be angry with me when I return...'

"Nagisa-chan! Amane is here to take you to Spica!" a voice rang out from down stairs.

Nagisa looked up and rushed down the stairs and saw two heads of blue. "Amane-kun! Thanks for picking me up." she said, reaching the last step and stopping on front of Spica's prince. "And thanks Chiyo, for letting me know Amane was here."

"No problem. I'm happy to help." The young room attendant replied happily, smiling at both girls.

Amane put an arm around Nagisa's shoulders (out of habit with Hikari) and smiled at the younger girl. "Nagisa, ready to go? I'd like to get you to Spica before it gets too cold out. It is Autumn after all."

Nagisa blushed at the heat she felt from Amane and nodded, "Y-Yea, lets go."

"Oh, w-wait!" Chiyo cried out, blushing and taking a small step back. She stood very rigid and twirled her fingers around each other. Both older girls raised their brows and gave each other questioning looks. Chiyo took a large breath and finally looked up, a cute blush adorning her cheeks. "Amane-sempai, if you see Kagome-chan, can you tell her I said 'Hi', and that I can't wait to see her Saturday?"

Amane blinked, taken back by the sudden question. "Yes, of course Chiyo, I'll tell her as soon as I see her."

"Thank you!" the girl basically yelled, obviously still nervous. She blushed even harder and stuttered many indistinct words before rushing up the stairs in a hurry, falling once, and running around the corner.

Nagisa blinked, but then remembered that she was very close to Amane, who had her arm around her. She blushed a bright red and stuttered a bit, but soon found her voice. "We should get going Amane-kun, it'll be dark soon."

Amane nodded and reached out to open the door, her other arm wrapping around Nagisa's waist. Nagisa gulped, and managed to control to rush of blood going to her head. Amane walked her outside and kicked the door closed behind her, leading Nagisa away from the dorms.

--

A very angry and annoyed Shizuma stood at the top of the stair case. She saw everything. And she was pissed. No one touched her Nagisa like that. She took a deep breath and tired to calm herself down by closing her eyes. It only proved to make things worse as a picture of Amane and Nagisa appeared in her head.

She settled for going back up to her room and trying to go to bed before her imagination got ahead of her.

--

The walk to Spica was not that long, but it felt like it to Nagisa. At the beginning of the walk, it was normal. Amane had removed her hand from Nagisa's lower back and led her down the path that lead to her school.

But not a few seconds later, a soft, but cold wind blew, making Nagisa wrap her arms around herself and rub them up and down; trying to make any friction related to heat. She unconsciously started inching towards Amane.

She hadn't realized it until she felt a hand wrap around her waist again. She gasped and looked up at Amane, who just chuckled and smiled before looking on again.

Nagisa felt odd about it, but couldn't deny the warmth that surrounded her. She simply put on her big girl panties, stopped thinking, and leaned onto the heat source next to her.

"Nagisa-chan, we're here." A voice rang out.

Nagisa's eyes snapped open and saw two dark eyes staring at her. She looked around her and saw Spica students everywhere. "Ah, yes, so then where's the lounge?"

Amane smiled down at her and pointed inside. "Just down the first hall, let me show you the way." She said, removing her hand and opening the door for the red head. Nagisa instantly missed the warmth. But, she shook her thoughts from her head and moved inside and allowing Amane to lead her to the Spica lounge.

They walked down a long hall until Amane stopped at two large white doors and pushed them both open.

Inside were all sorts of amazing sights. It was not just a lounge, but a café. There were booths and tables set up everywhere. Girls dressed in their PJs walked pasted them, greeting the Etoile and giggling. Other students were sitting at tables studying and sipping hot chocolate and coffee. Flowers were all around the room, and it was rather dim. It almost had a romati-

"ETOILE-SAMA!" one girl screamed, pointing.

As soon as the girl said that, all heads in the room turned to look at the two girls. All the girls stood up and bowed deeply. "Good evening, Etoile-sama!" they all recited.

Nagisa stood there awkwardly, but Amane just smiled at her. A girl in a short maid's outfit and kitten ears came up to them and bowed again. "Etoile-sama, is there any reason you have graced us with a visit?"

"Me and Nagisa-chan were wondering if we could get a private booth, if you don't mind, Kitsune-koi." Amane said, smiling at the girl and giving her a small wink.

The girl blushed and nodded quickly, "T-T-This way, Etoile-sama." She stuttered, leading them to the back corner.

That was the first of many times Nagisa would see Amane flirt to get what she wanted.

They both sat down, and Nagisa noticed the table already had two notebooks and a thick math book on it. Their waitress smiled sweetly at Amane, still blushing. "I-Is there anything else I can get you, Etoile-sama?"

"Yes, two hot chocolates, and a plate of strawberries, if it isn't too much trouble." The blunette answer smoothly, folding her hands on the table and resting her chin on them, grinning at the helpless girl once more.

Again, stuttering came forth and the girl left in a rush.

That was the second time Nagisa saw Amane flirt to get what she wanted. It was also the second time she missed the warmth that had surrounded her outside.

And the first night she hadn't thought of Shizuma.

"Here is your order, Etoile-sama." The girl said, breaking Nagisa from her thoughts. She placed a two cups of steaming hot chocolate topped with whipped cream, and a plate of juicy strawberries in front of the two girls. "Is there anything else you might be needing Etoile-sama?"

"Yes actually. If you wouldn't mind doing me a personal favor." Amane said, her voice silky smooth.

The girl blushed and nodded. "Good. Please run up to my room and get my work from class, since I seem to have forgotten it. If Hikari is there, tell her I'll be back late. And take this." Amane reached into her coat pocket and pulled out a golden key.

The girl took and held it to her heart, nodding furiously. "I'll do anything for Etoile-sama!" she said, running off.

Nagisa gaped like a dying fish. Amane...was a flirt! Shizuma....Shizuma might have been right. Her heart sank then. She had snapped at the girl she loved and yelled at her for no reason. She should just cancel this whole thing and go ba-

"Nagisa-chan, ready to begin? You seem out of it." Amane asked, her hand resting on top of Nagisa's with a concerned face. Nagisa felt her heart rise out of whatever hole it was in and blushed.

"Y-Yes, Amane-kun, I am. And I'm fine. Now, where do you think you need help?"
