Tsubaki weaved through the dozens of dancing guests as she looked for the blue-haired Black Star. The guy had somehow managed to run off amongst all the people, and now it was a game of find the needle in the hay stack. There were literally no empty spaces in the entire school.
Tsubaki sighed to herself as she entered her half and hour mark of her search. The guy really is energetic. You'd think he'd have yelled loud enough about his self praise to pinpoint his location, but the complete chaos that was people cheering, singing, chatting and the blaring music made little hope for that tactic.
Tsubaki sat down at a table with another sigh, feeling drained of her energy.
"Black Star...," Tsubaki breathed out fifth time, wishing he could at least feel her exhaustion and give pity to her. But that wish was too much to ask.
She propped herself on her elbow on the table, and soon realized that Kid was also seated at the table. He took notice of her soon after and smiled.
"Hello Tsubaki," Kid greeted her formally, which Tsubaki returned with a weak wave and a tiny smile. Kid immediately knew what was going on.
"Black Star?" Kid asked with a little smirk, and laughed a little when Tsubaki nodded her head and rested her head between her cross arms on the table.
"Why does he always have to do this?" Tsubaki questioned, somewhat muffled by her enclosed arms.
Kid sweat-dropped and reached over the soothe out Tsubaki's hair, which was starting to spike in random places. Probably unsymmetrical.
"There there Tsubaki. He'll turn up. Maybe I'll call him out and he'll come running," Kid jested, and Tsubaki looked up from her arms and laughed along with him this time. Tsubaki felt a little reassured now. Kid smiled before looking around the room in a random pattern. Tsubaki was about the question it before Kid spoke up again.
"Found him," Kid told her, "main entrance, on the centre spike. By what I can feel, he's proclaiming again."
Tsubaki got up along with Kid and they both ran to the main entrance together, Tsubaki giving thanks to Kid for his Soul Perception.
"Wait, why are you coming with me?" Tsunbaki asked as they made their way through the people.
"That idiot just might ruin my father's academy...again," Kid groaned.
'I should have guessed,' Tsubaki thought to herself.
When they were near the entrance, they could begin to hear the yells of the meister himself. People were either yelling at him to get down from his spot, shut up, or for him to get a life.
"W-wait, there's more up there?!" Kid screeched, grabbing Tsubaki by the wrist and dragging her along in a panic.
Sure enough, when they were able to see the front of the school, there was Black Star, but also alongside more kids from the school.
"Wooh!" whooped one of the kids. She was holding onto the very edge as the rest of the kids cheered.
"I'm Victoria and I feel like a GOD!" the girl screamed down to the crowd. The rest of the crew cheered.
"Hey, that's my line! No false gods before me!" yelled Black Star, laughing his head off madly. Victoria stuck her tongue out at him.
Black Star grinned at her cockily, before he gasped slightly and turned to find Tsubaki down on the ground.
"Ah, Tsubaki! I knew I felt your soul around!" Black Star yelled to her, as he leapt down from the spike and landed on the ground perfectly.
As he landed, he turned to find Tsubaki smiling warmly at him. For once, he smiled the same way, and also tried to stop himself from snickering at Kid's rants of almost ruining the symmetry.
"Black Star," Tsubaki started, "you shouldn't be jumping of high places like that," Black Star was just about to speak up when Tsubaki spoke again, "I know you've done it before, but still. I was worried."
Black Star took in notice at Tsubaki's slight blush. She couldn't really believe he allowed her to speak without interrupting. Black Star stepped closer to her and smiled again.
"Come on, Tsu, you know I'll always be careful just for you, " Black Star said sincerely. Tsubaki smiled back at him.
"Thank you," Tsubaki whispered softly to him while crossing her arms behind her back, not making eye contact. Black Star stood there taking in how cute she looked when she was embarrassed. Of course, other people on the scene thought so as well.
"Daw!" squealed Victoria from above, jumping down from the spike as well and landing in a bush softly. She recovered quickly and scurried over to the two.
"You two just make the most cutest couple ever!" she said with delight.
Tsubaki turned a very shade of red and started to stutter. "B-but we're not really-!"
"OH, please. Everyone knows about the book thing; not only did you look like Black Star, but you were the most horny in there!" she shot back deviously. "And Black Star looked an awful lot like Tsubaki; the lust chapter turns you into the thing you desire most, right?"
Now it was Black Star's turn to blush, along with Tsubaki, her head the colour of a tomato. Victoria was slowly getting over her laughing fit.
"Ok, ok, that's all. But by the way, you might want to look up," Victoria muttered to them, and then suddenly rushing off, surprisingly making her way through the crowd swiftly.
Black Star and Tsubaki didn't know what she was talking about, and before they could even look up, they heard Kid breath out in relief.
"VICTORIA! You're damn lucky that mistletoe is symmetrical and on the centre spike of the building!" Kid yelled to the sky, catching everyone's attention as he walked away briskly.
Black Star and Tsubaki went still.
They were still right under that spike.
They were under the mistletoe.
Black Star, for the first time ever, was at a lost for words. Tsubaki was trying her best to focus on the idea of him being out of character, instead of the mistletoe right over their heads. But for some reason, Tsubaki didn't move from her spot. And neither did Black Star.
Black Star looked around frantically for a solution, but started to slowly lose his composure and began focusing more on his partner.
Tsubaki could literately feel a jack-hammer in her chest, and yet she still remained rooted on the spot, anticipating what her meister would pull.
Suddenly, Black Star grabbed Tsubaki by by the waist and pulled her right into his chest.
"B-b-black Star!?" Tsubaki cried out in embarrasment, her blush growing more red. But she couldn't stop the rush of adrenaline from coursing from her veins. She quickly curled her hands into his warm tuxedo-ed chest.
"You know what they say; couples under the mistletoe must...kiss," Black Star breathed out. "It's proclaimed, and I won't be disobeying that proclamation."
Tsubaki looked at Black Star's face, his expression soft and not to mention closer than before.
Tsubaki didn't seem mind though. Not one bit. And he didn't either.
He slowly inched closer to her longing lips. And there was a pause. Then the spark.
Black Star couldn't think of anything greater than the feeling of her lips on his.
He gripped her hips harder and brought her closer until their chest were pressed against one another. Tsubaki felt the thrill spread over her body and she moaned against his lips in response. Their combined warmth made this moment all the more sweeter.
As they pulled back, Black Star couldn't help but grin at his weapon.
"You're the only one for me," Tsubaki said to him lightly.
He grinned.
"You're the only goddess for me, Tsu," Black Star whispered lightly into her ear.
They slow danced as the next song came on.
