Okotte:"I'm Summer and I'm fabulous!

This is the motto of one Yukishiro Summer.

She's blonde,fabulous, is a brilliant dancer,has all the guys at her feet and sometimes can be a bit feisty. She's Cici's creation and I bet Caoimhe regrets creating her now!

Saturn Marsipan.

Now he is one "foxy fella" as the Irish would say. He's a good fighter,very wise….and the biggest pervert you'll ever meet. I still remember when I tried to seduce him….good times,good times. But he has his eyes set on one certain blonde.

These two had fancied each other for years..

So what happens when Summer meets someone else?

Prepare to watch as a love dilemma unfolds…

Cici: Oh and by the way guys! I suggest listening to "Let Her Go" by Passenger later on in the chapter. This song is so sad and I think it ties in very well with this chapter.

Chapter 3:Saturn/Summer:Under the Mistletoe

Yukishiro Summer was having a peaceful morning. Until HE had to come along and annoy the living shit of her.

She had just popped her morning bagel into the toaster and was waiting impatiently for it to pop Saturn came along and promptly popped his bread in the toaster without thinking.

"Saturn!"Summer moaned.

"What?" Saturn shrugged innocently.

"You put your toast in without even checking! Now my bagel is going to burn!" Summer snapped at him. The toaster in the kitchen was a perfectly good toaster except for one problem: It always burnt toast if there was two slices in the toaster.

Saturn rolled his eyes "Well excuse me Onee-sama!" he smirked at her.

That set Summer's fuse only had he called her Princess in Japanese,which was a pet hate of Saturn's but he was just getting on her nerve. The two began having a shouting match in the kitchen that would have woken the dead. Luckily, Cici's parents weren't around to witness it. Unfortunately, a certain brunette was sleeping when it happened.

They should have known better than to wake Cici up.

Thump.

Thump.

Thump.

They heard her footsteps upstairs, but they paid no attention to her.

Thump.

Thump.

Thump.

They heard her slipper-clad feet run down the stairs as a warning signal,but they still didn't stop.

The kitchen door flew open and bashed into the kitchen wall, almost peeling the plaster.

"WHY. THE. FUCK. ARE. YOU. ALL. YELLING?" Cici roared, holding a baseball bat in her hand with a beyond ticked off expression.

Saturn and Summer paused blinking at her. Saturn sweat dropped. "Seriously? You guys still have that thing?" he asked wearily.

"Oh yeah!" Cici chirped cheerily, nothing like the scary crazy thirteen year old she was a few seconds ago. "It's Izzie's really, but she gave to me to keep it under my bed in case you pull one of your pervert tricks while I'm asleep again." She raised an eyebrow. "Remember the last time?" she asked Saturn, an anime devil expression on her face.

"I was doing my night shift!" Saturn protested. "God!" (A/N:Life With OC's chapter 9,if your'e wondering when this happened.)

"Anyway…why did you wake me up from my beauty sleep?" Cici asked.

"HE burnt my bagel!" Summer whined, pointing a finger at Saturn.

"SHE'S basically saying I can't have breakfast!" Saturn moaned, pointing a finger at Summer.

"I NEVER SAID THAT!" Summer yelled.

"WELL YOU CERTAINLY IMPLIED IT!" Saturn yelled back.

The two proceeded to continue their argument,Cici trying to stop them, but her efforts were wasted. Eventually the pieces of toast popped up,Saturn's toast was burned but Summer's bagel was fine. Summer reached for her bagel,desperate to end the argument but Saturn grabbed it too,complaining that was his breakfast, even though he knew it wasn't his breakfast.

The two fought over the bagel,until it flew through the air like a boomerang. Cici ducked…..and the buttery bagel landed on Winter's face.

"Oh shit." Saturn and Summer said in unison.

Cici quickly scampered off.

Winter slowly peeled the bagel off her face.

"Gotta go!" Summer said quickly,grabbing her dance bag and running off to work.

Leaving Saturn standing there to deal with the mess.

Summer felt exhausted as she walked through the doors of the NIBA building. Her stomach growled very loudly and her knees felt weak as she made her way into the dance studio.

"Well, someone's feeling hungry." A heavily accented voice said.

Summer's head turned and her heart almost stopped. A man was standing over in the corner,wearing a denim jacket over a white t-shirt,black jeans, and checkerboard Vans. He had blonde hair pulled back in a small stub of a ponytail and his cerulean blue eyes sparkled with amusement. He was extremely well toned and muscled.

"Yeah sorta." Summer managed to say. Her heart felt like it was in her mouth. She found this guy incredibly attractive. "I left the house without eating breakfast this morning."

The guy chuckled and walked over to her. "Me too. Hey,want to go and get something to eat? I know a neat little café a few blocks from here." He said.

Summer was taken aback and a little weary about this offer from a stranger,but she shrugged and said "Sure,why not?"

The pair spent at least an hour in the café. They immediately started talking about themselves ,well the blonde guy mostly, but Summer was happy to look into those blue eyes and let him talk all day.

The guy's name was Pedro,he was 19,and he was from Russia. He was a professional dancer and he was teaching a series of workshops to the kids at NIBA for about 2 or3 months. He chose Ireland as his first stop because "the Irish are passionate about dance." And so on so forth.

"Oh,I almost forgot!" Pedro slapped a hand against his forehead. "I'm here working here because I'm helping this girl,a…" Pedro clicked his fingers. "Oh yes!" he remembered "A Yukishiro Summer from Japan? She's supposed to be an amazing dancer."

Summer's jaw dropped open. Then she started laughing.

Pedro looked confused. "What? Did I say something wrong?" he asked.

"No…no it's just…I'm Yukishiro Summer." Summer said.

"Really?" Pedro seemed surprised "Well Summer you look….." he trailed off. "Your'e very pretty."

"Thank you." Summer said,feeling her heart flutter a million times over, as a blush spread across her cheeks.

Summer spent the whole day at work with Pedro,teaching him the ropes and trying to not blush and stutter constantly around him. Izzie noticed this at her dance classes and smirked knowingly at Summer,making her embarrassed and making her blush even more.

At the end of the day,when they were packing up,Pedro asked her on a date out of the blue at a fancy restaurant tomorrow night. Summer had happily accepted the date. She drove home from work singing along to Japanese pop bands she hadn't listened to in ages ,feeling like she was on cloud 9.

She hadn't felt this way since she realized she liked Saturn.

Saturn.

Summer stopped singing guiltily. She felt she was betraying Saturn somehow,even though they weren't dating.

She shrugged it off. They weren't dating or anything. Saturn might have been a catch,but they were plenty more out in the ocean.

Saturn noticed it the second she teleported in. She had wide starry eyes and her cheeks were flushed pink. She was singing a Japanese song,a little out of breath. Saturn knew something was wrong.

"Summer!" He immediately rushed to her side. "Are you okay? Do you have a fever?" he asked, quickly putting a hand on her forehead.

Summer brushed him off,laughing as if what Saturn had said was a really funny joke. "Don't worry silly I'm fine!" she said,sitting down on Saturn's bed.

"But your'e not yourself." Saturn shook his head.

"Oh Sat. I met this dreamy guy at work today." Summer said,staring off into space,sounding vaguely like an old movie star from the 30's.

Saturn felt like a dagger had been stuck into his heart. "Oh? Really?" he tried to say in a monotone voice,but it came out a bit forced.

"His name is Pedro,and he has to be the sweetest guy I've ever met." Summer said,swaying slightly.

"The sweetest guy you've ever met.." Saturn said monotonously like a robot.

No.

No.

This couldn't be happening.

Summer loves me. I know it ,she's never said it but I've just…KNOWN.

As Summer talked on about Pedro oblivious in her own little world, Saturn felt a part of his own world being ripped under him into a dark black void.

The following evening Saturn watched Summer as she walked down the stairs. His breath caught in his throat. She was wearing a short sparkly sliver dress over black leggings and she was wearing black heels. Her hair was pulled back in an elegant bun and a pair of emerald earrings hanging from her ears.

Saturn's breath caught in his throat. She looked beautiful as always.

Winter glared at her in envy. Skye squealed in delight and clapped her hands rapidly. "You look stunning! I did such a good job!" she exclaimed. "Looking good Summer! Go and get your man!" Izzie said,giving the thumbs up. Cici simply smiled at her.

"Thanks guys." Summer smiled at them. Saturn just silently stared at her. Summer turned to him.

"Saturn?" she asked hopefully.

Saturn's breath caught in his throat. She looked so beautiful. He could grab her by the wrist her he doesn't want her to go,that he wants her to stay. Stay with him. But then he'd be making a scene in front of the team. And as team leader,he knew he had to keep his guard up at all times.

So he simply turned around and walked up to his room,feeling four pairs of confused eyes watching him go up the stairs. One sad pair watching him leave.

And with that,Saturn let Summer go.

That night ,Saturn sat on the windowsill while everyone else was asleep ,waiting for Summer to come back home. Winter had brought in a hot chocolate and blanket for him a few hours ago. The hot chocolate was stone-cold and untouched and the blanket had been shrugged off his shoulders.

Eventually a sleek red car pulled up across from the house. A tall blonde guy in a t-shirt and jeans got out. He had cold hard blue eyes and his blonde hair was pulled back into a ponytail. He had a cold smile on his face. Saturn tensed up immediately. He opened the backseat of his car…

And Saturn was truly terrified at what he saw.

Summer was curled up asleep in the backseat ,her hair loose from its bun spreading out in long blonde streaks. Her clothes were all dishevelled and she was only wearing one of her heels. Rage flooded through Saturn as he saw what Pedro had done to her.

He quickly put on a grey hoodie to cover his alien ears and ran out onto the street,hands in the pockets on his jeans, trying to keep his rage under control.

Pedro had been texting on his mobile phone while all this was happening. He looked from his phone as Saturn approached.

"Hands off her."Saturn said simply.

Pedro blinked once, lazily, "Excuse me?" he asked innocently.

Saturn nodded at Summer in the backseat. "I happen to know that girl you've taken advantage of in your backseat. I happen to be a close friend of hers. And if you don't admit you've done something to her right now I'll-"

Pedro cut Saturn off with a cold hard bitter laugh. "You happen to be sorely mistaken." He said coldly,all warmth and pretence gone from his voice. "I took Summer out for her date,and while we were there she had too many glasses of wine. Her appearance became more dishevelled throughout the night. Eventually,when I was driving her home,she passed out and I put her in the backseat. I was not trying to make a move on her in any….physical way Saturn."

Saturn's eyes narrowed. "How do you know my name?" he asked.

"Summer told me about you briefly." He shrugged.

Saturn and Pedro stared each other down for a few minutes. "Fine." Saturn finally said. "Just don't mess with her or anything."

"Oh I think you'll be disappointed Saturn." Pedro smirked. "You see,I've been with a lot of girls and I know how to get what I want. And if I want,I can dump Summer. But obviously,dumping her now would be no fun. Dragging you into the game too would be very exciting wouldn't it?"

Saturn growled. "You son of a-"

"Ah ah ah! "Pedro 't get into a temper,Saturn. I'm not planning on dumping your precious Barbie doll just yet. I want to have some fun with her first. And with you. Seeing you suffer wil be very exciting…and who knows…maybe if I convince her enough Summer might hate you as much as I do."

Saturn went to punch Pedro's face,but Pedro stopped him. "I'd stop if I were you." He said simply. Saturn lowered his fist. He barged past Pedro and picked Summer up bridal style from the backseat of the car. Pedro stood there until Saturn was about to go into the house.

"Tell her I'm very much looking forward to our next date Saturn." Pedro called out mockingly.

Saturn never passed on the message.

The next morning,everyone was rushing around. Cici and Izzie were getting ready for school,and Winter was applying her makeup for school in the mirror. Skye was preparing for her job(turns out she worked at a crèche downtown) and Summer was getting ready for work,still feeling euphoric.

Saturn was sitting there,his stomach in knots,his hands clammy. He knew this plan was childish,immature,and quite selfish of him,but it just might win back Summer.

Saturn walked up causally to Winter.

"Hey,are you free this weekend?"

Naturally Winter accepted.

Naturually,Summer got pissed off with Saturn.

So did Skye.

"Hi Skye." Saturn said, still focused on his war tactics. "How was-mph!"

Saturn was cut off by Skye lifting him up by his collar and throwing him against the wall.

"You're still the same evil Cynaclon I fought against, aren't you?" Skye growled.

"Wha?"Saturn answered, still dazed from Skye's sudden attack.

"You asked Winter out,knowing she likes you!Knowing you would break Summer's heart! " Skye almost screamed at him.

Saturn put his hands up in defence. "Is that a crime?" he sighed.

"Yes!" Skye yelled. Saturn sweat dropped. Maybe it was time to inform Skye of his plan.

"Listen Skye there is a method to my madness." He tried to reassure her.

Skye's eyes narrowed. "Oh really?" she snapped. "Go on, tell me then."

Saturn informed Skye of the plan.

"So you're only going out with Winter to make Summer jealous and break up with Pedro so the jerk will get a taste of his own medicine.. " Skye repeated what Saturn had just said back to him.

"Yeah. And then Summer will realize it was me all along she loved and-"

"Saturn,if you and Summer are meant to be together,you need to let things take its course." Skye sighed.

Saturn blinked. "Meaning?" Saturn had always been clueless when it came to lovey-dovey things.

"That you shouldn't be meddling with Summer's love life. Trust me I tried that once ….and it didn't end too well." Skye lowered her eyes to the ground. She was still ashamed about what she had done to Saturn. Trying to get Summer to go on dates with guys from school to make sure she didn't end up running off with the enemy (Saturn) during their Mew heyday hadn't exactly ended well.

"You know,the first time I heard you swear was when I teleported into the restaurant ,scaring the living hell out of everyone and making Summer's date faint." Saturn smirked at the memory. 3 years felt like ages.

"Yeah….I had a lot to explain to Summer and Ryou that night…" Skye sweat dropped.

"Anyway…..if my example is anything to go by, I shouldn't have prevented you guys from being friends…and even more. I know that deep down in her heart, Summer loves only you Saturn. Even Winter knows it herself. She's just too self-centred to realize it. "

"Your'e right. Worst idea ever." Saturn put his head in his hands and sighed.

"What now?" he asked looking at Skye.

"You'll just have to go on that date with Winter and tell her afterwards. Let her down gently. Who knows? Maybe at the NIBA party tomorrow night, she'll come to her senses." Skye shrugged and walked out of the room,to greet Izzie and Cici who had just gotten home from school.

Saturn sighed. "I hope your'e right Skye…"

"Whoa!" Summer breathed the following evening looking at the lavishly decorated ballroom. "This is…amazing!"

Summer and Pedro had arrived on their date at the NIBA ball. Skye and Saturn had accompanied them .Skye and Saturn were only going as friends though. After all,it wouldn't be right for Skye and Saturn to go as a couple-not when Skye was an engaged woman.

"Haven't seen a party this lavish since the Queen's coronation ball on Cynclonia." Saturn murmured under his breath.

"I hear they spent 6 days setting it up."Pedro said,trying to look all self-knowing and confident.

"You certainly know everything that's going on at NIBA." Summer crooned looking up at him.

"And a whole lot more."Pedro smirked. Saturn shot him a dark glare.

Idiot.

"Izzie and Cici would have loved this.."Skye said, looking at the huge buffet table, which was almost groaning under the weight of many fancy dishes on crystal platters.

"Definitely." Saturn nodded.

An orchestra began playing fancy music. "Care to dance?" Pedro asked Summer.

"My pleasure." Summer smiled at him.

Saturn watched the pair with pained eyes as they waltzed elegantly on the floor. Saturn sighed."I can't wait to tear his head off his body." He growled. "Patience Saturn…."Skye chided him gently. Saturn took a deep breath and composed himself.

When Pedro dragged Summer out of the room after the waltz,Summer giggling,Saturn's hands balled into fists. " Nuair a bhfaighidh mé mo lámh air, beidh mé punt air chomh dian sin, ní bheidh sé beo a fheiceáil lá eile!" Saturn said in Irish.

(Translation: When I get my hands on him,I'll pound him so hard,he won't live to see another day!)

Skye blinked very slowly. How the hell Saturn knew to swore in Irish,she'd never know. (Then again he could have taken a few lessons from Cici.)

"Foighne, beidh gach rud a bheith i bhfeidhm Saturn." Skye reassured him, struggling to pronounce the vowels right.

(translation: Patience,everything will fall into place Saturn.)

Sure enough,a good half hour later Summer was walking away from Pedro tears in her eyes. Pedro had his arms around a redhead and was laughing with her.

Summer stalked out the door,her blonde hair flowing behind her. Saturn went over to Pedro and lightly tapped him on the shoulder. "What is it, blondie ?"Pedro sneered turning around,thinking it was Summer. Saturn punched him into the face and kicked him over into the buffet table. "That's for my girlfriends ,you son of a bitch." He then stalked off after Summer.

Summer was sitting outside on the steps,not crying but staring into space.

"Sunny?" Saturn asked,using his pet nickname for Summer.

"I haven't heard you use that since we had to trick Skye into believing I wanted to stay with you in your "paradise" when you took me hostage on the alien ship." Summer said without any emotion, staring into space.

Saturn frowned. "Were you…crying?" Saturn asked. Summer shook her head. "Don't cry over spilt milk. Especially when the milk is sour and curdled and you never really liked it in the first place." She said.

Saturn was taken aback by this. "So…you never loved Pedro?" Saturn asked,sitting down beside her.

"Well a part of me was attracted to him,but I knew I didn't love him…because my mind was always on someone else…"Summer slowly turned around and smiled at Saturn.

Saturn looked down at the ground. "I was only going out with Winter to make you jealous…I thought you liked Pedro.." he admitted . Summer shrugged and her eyes hardened. "I knew that. I was pissed because it was stupid. I'm no fool you know."she said.

"But I'm a fool for you." Saturn said,slowly leaning into her.

"Corny much?" Summer scoffed,but her eyes had softened.

The pair leaned in and kissed. It was soft,sweet and tender. The perfect first kiss for a perfect couple.

"Hey look.."Saturn pointed above their heads. In the doorway was a tiny sprig of Mistletoe.

Summer started laughing,and so did Saturn,they laughed until their bellies hurt.

Then Summer rested her head on Saturn's shoulder. "I love you Saturn."she softly whispered.

"I love you too." Saturn said looking up at the sky.

Summer tensed a little as she felt like someone was watching her. But she then relaxed.

She was being paranoid…right?

You stole what was rightfully mine Summer.

-Winter.
