Title: Let's Dance With Our Hearts

"Ehhh?! Dance in twos? But we're only nine here!" Honoka whined and Eli felt sorry for her but since they were doing like a ball dance kind of routine they need to be in pairs.

"Sorry, Honoka. We really need this for our routine. Knowing you, I'm prtty sure you'll come up with something." Eli said and Honoka just pouted,

"Mou! Why can't I just be with Kotori and Umi then?" Honoka asked curiously and Umi glared at her and scolded her,

"Honoka, have you even seen a waltz with three people? That would just be as hard to do."

"Honoka-chan, maybe you can partner up with somebody outside of the group?" Kotori said and Honoka sighed in defeat.

"You all just want to be close to your crushes that's why we're doing this, huh Eli?" Honoka said with a smirk and everyone blushed,

"Honoka, you idiot." Umi said wit a flustered tone as she hit Honoka's head.

"Umi-chan! That hurts!"

"Then, don't make jokes like that..." Umi scoffed as she averted her eyes from Honoka.

After their practice Honoka went home and tried to think of a plan to solve this whole "Partner" thing. Usually, Kotori and Umi and her were inseparable but maybe this time they were.

"Mou! I hate this whole partner thing!" Honoka whined even more and suddenly an idea popped into her head nd immediately grabbed her phone and tried to find Tsubasa's number.

"Hello? Honoka? Why are you calling?" Tsubasa asked curiously since it was rare for Honoka to just call her in the middle of the night.

"Sorry for disturbing you, Tsubasa-san...I have a favor, actually..." Honoka said and became nervous. She didn't know why she was nervous around Tsubasa. Maybe it was because they don't talk that much?

"Sure, Honoka. Anything to help." Tsubasa said and Honoka was glad that she accepted.

"Want to be my dance partner, Tsubasa-san?" Honoka asked cheerfully and what Honoka didn't know is that Tsubasa was blushing and was actually flustered that Honoka wants to be her dance partner. She admits to herself that she likes Honoka even more than just friends so this was really big for her.

"S-sure, Honoka. B-but why?" Tsubasa asked as she was trying to keep cool of the situation.

"We're doing some kind of ballroom dance kind of routine and everyone are in pairs except for me. Eli-chan must've wanted to just touch Nozomi-chan again and it's all frustrating." Honoka said and widened her eyes at spilling Nozomi and Eli's relationship.

"Forget the last part..." Honoka said with a little nervous giggle.

Tsubasa just laughed on how Honoka is straightforward of everything so she agreed to be her dance partner.

"Come tomorrow, Tsubasa-san! Practice will start tomorrow so don't leave me hanging." Honoka said as she pouted and Tsubasa agreed and with that Honoka hung up and was ecstatic for tomorrow.

The next day...

"Ericchi, don't you think you left Honoka out? We are nine so at least let Kotori and Umi be with her." Nozomi said with a worried tone and Eli just smiled at her.

"What's on your mind, Ericchi?"

Honoka was running late on practice and Maki finally spoke,

"Guys, Honoka probably won't because a certain pair just wanted to be together."

Eli and Nozomi blushed and said unison, "It was nothing like that."

"B-besides, it's not like you hated the idea being paired with Nico." Eli shot back and the tables had turned and everyone knew this will get intense.

"N-not that I liked it either! It wasn't pleasing to be with someone so annoying."

"I'm here!"

Everyone turned to the familiar cheerful voice and was relieved that she came but someone else was there it was...Tsubasa.

"Tsubasa?! From A-rise? What are you doing here?" Nico asked in shock on why the famous idol came.

"I came here to help Honoka out since she doesn't have a partner."

Tsubasa looked at Eli and Nozomi and smirked.

"Well, since you two started this. Can we see your progress?" Tsubasa asked and Rin played the music.

Eli grabbed Nozomi's hand and Nozomi blushed a little.

"Come on, Nozomi. We can do this." Eli whispered as she guided Nozomi on the dance.

"Eli-chan and Nozomi-chan are awesome!" Honoka said after Nozomi and Eli were finished.

"Tsubasa, how about you and Honoka? What have you two done?" Eli asked challengingly and Tsubasa slightly blushed and ran to Honoka and grabbed her hand. Honoka widened her eyes at how soft Tsubasa's hand was and whispered "Tsubasa-san, I don't think I can do this. We didn't even practice."

"Just follow my lead, Honoka and just call me Tsubasa." Tsubasa said as they started and Hanayo and Nico were staring intently to their dancing. It was in sync. Too sync in fact and Nico was noticing something really obvious.

After the practice, Tsubasa left and said goodbye to Honoka and was looking forward to tomorrow.

When Tsubasa left everyone looked at Honoka and Nico asked "Why did you ask Tsubasa?!"

"Because...I was out of ideas, Nico-chan..." Honoka said nervously and Nico raised one of her eyebrow and Honoka asked "What's wrong? Don't you like Tsubasa practicing?"

"Tsubasa?! Now you're calling her that?! What are is your relationship with her?" Nico asked curiously and everyone was staring at her with questions in their minds.

"She made me call her that! It's her fault!" Honoka said as she pouted and everyone just stared at her.

"Honoka, what do you feel about Tsubasa?" Eli asked and Honoka blushed and didn't answer Eli.

Eli chuckled and said "Our little Honoka's finally in love, Nozomi."

"I knew this would happen all along, Ericchi." Nozomi said with a playful smile on her face.

Honoka widened her eyes and declined their assumptions, "N-no! I-It's not like that..."

"Honoka-chan's cute when she's blushing." Kotori squealed.

"Mou! Fine! I love Tsubasa!" Honoka shouted and everyone just laughed at how embarrassed Honoka was when she said it.

"Did someone said they loved me?"

Honoka immediately turned around and saw Tsubasa and blushed even more.

"I-I thought y-you left?" Honoka asked nervously and she noticed Rin was grinning.

"I got called by Rin. So..."

Tsubasa walked closer to Honoka and continued, "Is it true that you love me?"

Honoka nodded and her heart started beating fast on how close Tsubasa was to her face.

"I love you too...dance partner." Tsubasa said as she kissed Honoka on the cheek and left.

"Ehhh?! Tsubasa just kissed you?!" Nico asked in shock and Maki rolled her eyes and scoffed "Won't you shut up? It's kind of expected that they'll be together."

Nico didn't listen and continued her ramblings and Maki kissed her on the cheeks and became flustered.

"Th-there. Would you shut up now?"

"Ara, Maki-chan, can be bold sometimes." Nozomi teased and while everyone was teasing each other, Honoka just had a smile on her face.

'I'm not going to be alone after all. Me and Tsubasa...we'll sync our feelings like we dance with each other.'
