Kiss Me Cookies - Part 3
Dee: Your hair is a pretty blue!
Samantha: Kaito's fault.
Dum: Really!?
Dee: *snicker* You haven't answered if he's your date or not.
Spinner: He is her date.
Samantha: What?!
Spinner: Well, he is.
Samantha: Argh!
Dum & Dee: Knew it!
Dum: Kaito wouldn't talk.
Samantha: He didn't know!
Dee: Really? You should tell him!
Samantha: He's right there! He can hear us you know!
Dum: Really? Hey, Kaito, is Samantha your date?
Kaito: (Her hair is really pretty... She's so cute right now...Oh, they asked me something.) Sure.
Samantha's face turned red again and she buried her face in the wuggle's back.
Ice Cream: NNNNIIIII!
Kaito: (The wuggle!) Careful, Samantha, you'll hurt Ice Cream.
Samantha sent a sulky glare my way, and glared knives at Dum.
Dee: Hey, Kaito? Is Samantha cute?
I felt my face heat up a bit, and I made a small nod. Dee caught the nod and giggled.
Samantha: Kaito... I'm going to steal your scarf.
She warned before attacking me.
Dee and Dum giggled. Spinner continued to drive and glanced back at us every once in a while. Samantha sat hugging my scarf tight to her chest and glaring at me. I sat and sulked slightly. Ice Cream stared up at me confused.
Ice Cream: Nii? Nii? Nii! Nii?
Kaito: (Samantha's mean...) I know... I don't look right without my scarf. Samantha? Can I have it back when we get there?
Samantha looked back at me, then grabbed me silently. She wrapped my scarf around my neck the way I normally wear it. Then she blushed and looked away when the twins snickered at her. I felt a strange warm feeling spread through me and I held still. Ice Cream crawled into my lap and watched Samantha.
Kaito: (He thinks she's cute too!) Are we almost there?
Spinner: Close, very close.
Samantha: It's at the castle of Spade, so be on your best behavior. Spade has vampires for friends.
Dum & Dee: *gasp* It's true? He is a cat?!
Samantha: Yes.
Kaito: Like Clyde and Kyle?
Samantha: No... Some day, I'll look into it.
Kaito: Hmm.
Dee: Hey! Look, there's Luke and Joker waiting for us!
Dum pressed the switch and the window rolled down on their side. Dum stuck his hand out and waved. Dee copied him.
Dum & Dee: Joker! Luke!
As soon as the car came to a halt, both kids shoved the door open and ran to Joker and Luke. I got out and turned to help Samantha out.
Samantha: Phalanx!
I tilted my head.
Kaito: (What is that supposed to mean?) What?
Samantha pouted and crossed her arms.
Samantha: How am I going to dance if my legs are asleep?
I snickered slightly under my breath. Ice Cream hopped out of my arms and raced after Dum.
Ice Cream: Niii!
Dum: Ahh! It's chasing me, Joker!
Dee: It's kinda cute!
Dee picked up the wuggle and hugged it. Joker ran over and planted a kiss on Spinner's cheek. Spinner laughed and chased after him as he ran away.
Spinner: Come back here, you! I must have my revenge!
I turned and observed the cute, sulking girl. I picked her up and carried her over to where the others were. Samantha looked surprised and blushed some more. Spinner grinned evilly, Joker copied Spinner, Luke made a even straighter face, and the twins giggled.
Samantha: I think I can walk now.
Kaito: (She's really warm...) No.
Samantha: What?!
Kaito: No 'I think's. You are not walking until you are sure you can.
Samantha: Kaito, I can walk. Please put me down.
Kaito: (Never!) No.
I whispered my last 'no' in her ear and she blushed a deeper crimson.
I listened as Clyde complained about the tacos not having enough cheese.
Kaito: (How much taco stuff can this guy talk about?) Want some cookies? They are really good.
Clyde smiled wryly.
Clyde: I wish I could... I ate way too many tacos though...
I burst out laughing and Clyde joined in.
Kaito: Hahahahahah! Clyde!
Clyde: Hahahahahah! I know, Kaito!
I finally got away from the joking cat and found Samantha looking bored.
Kaito: (She is so adorable.) Something wrong, Samantha?
Samantha: I kinda want to dance, but... Nah, too cliche.
I sat down beside her.
Kaito: (I hope Clyde didn't.) Let me guess... Clyde stole your taco?
She shrugged, and played with her hair.
Samantha: Yes, but no, that isn't it.
Kaito: (Okay, he did. Wait... There was that earlier, maybe...) You saw cockroaches dancing and now you can't get it out of your head?
She tried not to smile.
Samantha: Yes... But no, that also isn't it.
Kaito: (I hope the ice cream is doing fine... Oh! That's right... There were cookies!) The cookies got up and ran away? Oh great... Now we'll have to chase them.
She smiled, but covered it with her hand.
Samantha: No...
Kaito: (I don't think she lost it, but I'll ask just in case.) You lost the ribbon I put in your hair?
Samantha: No! I can't dance!
I stood up and brushed myself off.
Kaito: (Too cute... My circuits... They hurt again.) Nonsense! If the cookies ran away, yeah... That's a good reason for not dancing. But you... You can dance, it's super simple compared to learning the Cendrillon and Canterella.
Samantha: Doubt it.
I grabbed her hand and kissed it.
Kaito: May I have this dance? Or are your legs still asleep?
Samantha stood slowly.
Samantha: You may... K-Kaito?
I guided her onto the dance floor and placed my hand on her waist. Samantha gripped my other hand tightly, but after a bit she relaxed into the rhythm.
Kaito: (I wonder...) Do you like music?
Samantha: So cliche, Kaito.
I could barely hear her.
Kaito: Hmm?
Samantha: Nothing! Yes.
Kaito: Do you play any music?
Samantha: No, but I think I'd like to try the flute some day.
Kaito: (I bet her voice is pretty...) Do you like singing?
Samantha looked dreadfully exasperated, but she continued.
Samantha: Not really, I only sing if I feel like it.
I couldn't resist.
Kaito: May I serenade you?
Samantha glared at me.
Samantha: If you gonna do it... then do it!
Kaito: (Okay... Why did I just do that?) Come.
I moved my hand from her waist, then guided her to the garden where there was no one around.
Spade - From SWD: Blood in Roses.
(I don't like vampires much...)
You don't have to. He doesn't show up much, and besides, he's a cat.
(Okay. ...I guess there's nothing else to say. See you all next time!)
