Examining the breathless scenery of the starry night sky, Vanilla Mieux stood there on their house porch right beside the concrete pillar. Her baby blue nightgown was gracefully flowing down her mid-thighs; blonde curls were held back with a headband.

Another long day from school sure is tiring, but not like it did during their Queen Exams back in middle school.

A knock on the main door occurred and made her turn around. A slight jumped after waking up from her trance. "You should get inside. It's getting cold out here." Said one of her Bodyguards Woo who just got out of the bathroom, drying his hair with a towel and wearing a woolen sweater.

She sweetly smiled at him in return. Just about to speak, a mild sneeze exited both through her mouth and nose. Woo gave her a worried look as he approached her.

"See? And yet you stand out here with such thin clothing. Ah-"Stopping midway from his tracks, but close enough to see her whole figure. Eyes widening, realizing how he could see what's underneath her nightgown from here! Her pelvis was being covered with white lace underwear, designed perfectly for young women her age. Eyes travelling upwards, his face blushing hard red to see that nothing was covering her chest! Nipples softly peeking through the thin fabric.

"Don't worry about me Woo; I'll be alri-"deciding to face him only to see the young man all flushed.

She paused for a moment and followed his line of sight, his eyes looking directly at her breasts. She blushed as hard as him and quickly had herself wrapped with her arms. "KYAAAAHH!" She squealed and turned around "S-Sumimasen!" Woo did the same thing.

After a few seconds of awkwardness, Woo was the first to cool down. Peeking through the corner of his eye and saw that the blonde was still fidgeting and was now holding her cheeks with both hands. He silently chuckled as he thought

Kami… She's so beautiful…

In all honesty, she really is. Vanilla's hair had grown a bit, long enough to reach her neck, but hasn't passed her shoulders yet. Clearing his throat, he began:

"Ano... I was just thinking – you know? Chocolat hasn't seemed to be lively lately, and it's becoming more often than usual. Your friends have been wondering the same thing."

Oh yeah. No matter what they do, Mizuki and the others can never fool the twins, not that easily. Next time they do it, they better make a better excuse than that. "That girl seems to be riding on the clouds. No wonder we can't reach her." He fakes a laugh.

Glancing over at Vanilla, his eyes widened once more for she was no longer like crazy. Instead, her face was replaced with a sad look.

"Chocolat-chan…" She started, her back still facing him. "Is sad…" her voice started to shake.

Two arms suddenly made its way around her and held her there as they embrace her from behind. A natural scent of pine and leaves filled the air, mixing with the wonderful vanilla aroma. Her small and petite hands help onto it which was above her chest. Woo slowly tightened his grasp, careful enough not to break her.

"I'm worried for her. Because… She's experiencing the same thing I did when I was young." She closed her eyes before continuing." That's why I can understand what she's been going through. The pressure… It's so frustrating that it's suffocating." She whispered.

"Shhh… I know, I know…" He gently whispers into her hair, not wanting for her to remember the bitter childhood she had. His voice sent shivers down her spine. Besides the cold breeze the evening had brought, this warmth behind her is enough to heat her body up, in so many ways.

Both of their eyes found each other and immediately locked gazes. Staring at each other as they see themselves reflect at their pair of orbs. Gathering up the courage, his lips had met its way to hers.

Woo and Vanilla has been dating for almost a year now. Lover boy here had finally able to let go of his feelings for Chocolat after all those years of having a crush on her. Vanilla, however, started to develop feelings for him ever since her Noir got extracted from her and the young man has been acting very sweet towards her.

It was clear as crystal that memory was.

2 years ago: *WARNING: Fluff Alert!*

It was a late congratulatory party for the freshmen; you know the drill, enjoy the fun or get called a 'Party Pooper'. You get what I'm saying?

Chocolat, still being the extrovert that she was, wanted to try a game she's been hearing from her friend's late night gigs. A game called "7 minutes in heaven". Everyone got excited, seeing that they might have a chance with their crushes being here to play with them.

How to play the game you ask? Simple. Your names are written on a piece of paper and are placed inside a bowl along with everybody else's. Girls and Guys are separated. Whoever was drawn, you and the name written on the paper will be sent in a dark closet and be left alone for 7 minutes.

Soul volunteered to go first, he drew one paper out and lucky he, Chocolat's name was written on it! Pierre gave him a death glare, telling him if her ever lay hands on her, it'll be the end of him.

Thankfully, nothing really happened. They just came out laughing. The rest follows: Mizuki and Naoga, who had a hand print on his right cheek but both, were madly blushing. Pierre and Rino, who got excited, leave Pierre no choice but to extract her pink heart. She came out of the closet all tired out because the Prince of the academy took 5 pink hearts from her in one go. Akira wasn't around that time; he had to go home early.

It was Vanilla's turn. She was so nervous that her hands were practically sweating. Randomly picking one… And she promised she could've fainted right from that spot if she wanted to.

.

W-Woo…

.

Inside the dark closet the said teen already went, although, he had no idea who actually picked him. Vanilla went inside ad the door was closed, darkness covering the room. "W-Woo? Are you there?" She called out. Woo was in for a surprise as he knew to whom the voice belongs to. Unaware she was in front of him already, couldn't stop wandering around the room and stumbled upon him. Both ended up in tripping.

Vanilla was on top while Woo was slightly sitting, his elbows supporting his body. Their eyes were finally getting used to the dark and saw each other staring and instantly blushed, their noses touching each other and lips only 2 inches apart. Both apologizing for their clumsiness and trying to stand up.

Surprisingly, Vanilla lost balanced and fell again. Only this time she landed on something soft. Her lips were now kissing Woo's. Never expecting those lips to be so soft, so warm, and as their eyes continue to look at each other. It felt like something more powerful than a forbidden spell.

.

It felt like a drug.

.

Woo got embarrassed by the sudden situation and released first, words coming out from his mouth all sounded gibberish and unheard of. Seriously, what does "Eya.. Ena, Sefa" Means?

Unaware that his knees were under Vanilla's skirt, he accidentally lifted his left knee and rubbed the center of her thighs. She responded with a gasp and quickly covering her mouth. Rather than a gasp, was that a moan he heard just now?

Woo was in for a shock himself. The sight before him made him hotter than it already was inside these close walls, and the sound Vanilla made just now infused a rather strange sensation coming from under his groin. A tent forming on his zipper section.

His eyes soften. Curious… So curious of that sudden reaction. He repeated the same action and the result… was Priceless. A more seductive tone hitched from her voice, desperately trying to control those rising urges. Her throat felt so dry, like a vampire, who's quenching their thirst of desire.

Do I resist? Or do I submit?

Her thoughts faded as she snapped back to reality when she felt fingers brushing from her hips… To her waist… If Woo knew her well, he should definitely know that her spine being touched is Vanilla's main weakness in her body. But alas, he doesn't know. She never told him. Why? Cuz they're not even together.

Cheeks were now red; she clutched his shirt as he continues his movements. He liked where this is going.

Couldn't care to hold back any longer, he placed his lips on her neck, trailing small kisses down until her collarbone. Letting his tongue slid out and licking her earlobe. His hand from earlier were know placed on Vanilla's waist, caressing her; the moment his thumb came in contact with her skin, her couldn't help but make small circles on her. Vanilla shivered more from his touch.

The bulge on his pants hardened more after he felt a warm breath landing on his forehead. He looked up and almost lost it. Vanilla's eyes were half-lidded, cheeks all flushed, knees quivering and getting weak, where any minute now she'll fall down. Lips separated as she pants, it was getting harder to breath.

.

.

It was tempting…

.

SHE was tempting…

.

It was certainly, a sight for sore eyes.

.

.

Heart pounding heavily, ears started to go numb by the sound of beating drums echoing from her brain and pumps from her veins. Slowly closing the distance between them as Woo moves his head forward. Tension rising.

He subconsciously calls out her name in a whisper. She closed her eyes and grips his shirt tightly until her knuckles turn white; knowing full well what comes next. They were getting closer… And closer… And closer… When -

"Time's up!" His brother Soul says as he opened the door.

Good thing Woo and Vanilla were able to separate in time the minute they heard the door knob turn and clicked. They asked what happened and the two of them only shook their heads meaning 'Nothing'. But of course, Ms. Vanilla Ice here cannot hide the blushing face of hers no matter how hard she tries.

They didn't talk throughout the whole night. Woo avoided looking at Vanilla, which made her feel uneasy.

A week went by and the she still received the same treatment. No talking, no greetings, no eyes contacts. Nothing. This caused the young blonde to think he hated her now; which is weird cuz she didn't do anything. Sigh, still the kind-hearted Vanilla to take the blame alright.

One day, walking home alone from school, Woo waited for her at the school gates. After so long he finally met with her eyes, and he gestured that they walk home together.

Vanilla knew his feelings for Chocolat. How long he's been keeping an eye for her, how much she cared for her, how much he tried to win her heart. It wasn't those facts that pained her… It was the thought on how he was going to reject her.

He stopped walking, Vanilla from behind did the same. This is it. He's going to say it. He's going to confront her about the truth, and she was holding back her tears.

.

Go on, say it.

.

"Vanilla… I – I've been, having a lot of thoughts lately."

.

It's alright, just say it.

.

"I'm sorry… This might be too sudden…"

.

I know… SO just get on it with already.

.

"But I –"

.

Do it! Reject mw now! Don't make it sound so hard as it is.

.

"I've fallen for you."

.

"That's right! You – Huh?

.

Her world suddenly went blank. What did he just say? It slowly registered through her mind, tears flowing down her cheeks. Woo panicked and wondered whatever he said wrong. A while after she calmed down, he told her the reason why. "I'm serious. I've really fallen for you Vanilla. And it's not just because of what happened back at the party. It's more than that… Gomen… I just, can't put it into words."

What did he receive in return? A small laugh. "E-eh? Vanilla, I'm being serious here."

"Hehehe, how silly of me." She said as she wipes her tears. "And here I was… Thinking that I'm probably the only one who felt that way."

The way she smiled brought butterflies in his stomach that Woo didn't even know it was possible. He cupped her chin with his finger, eyes focusing on her violet ones. Leaning down and captured her lips in profound satisfaction, just as she captured his heart. Two pink hearts were glowing on the sun setting view.

*End of Flashback*

Their lips parted and found themselves again looking at each other In a daze. "Rest." He said. Vanilla nodded and went inside; calling it a night.

The following morning …

"MINNA! Get up! You'll all be late for school, Kero!"

Duke made a loud yell and every resident in the house jolted up from bed and fell on the floor. Now that's what I call a wakeup call.

Everyone was in rush as they all took quick showers, brush their teeth, fix their hair and ate toast for breakfast. Bags on hands and all ran (more like flew) for the remaining 20 minutes before class starts. All shouting in union:

"ITEKIMASU!"

How is my first fluff? I hope I did well, here's chapter 4 for you all! Chapter 5 will be posted soon, so stay tuned!

Minna - Everyone

Itekimasu! - We'll be going!/ We're leaving!
