Setsuna walked down to the main entrance. He had been thinking about the bear for awhile now and how it all began when Nina tapped him on the shoulder.

Hey.." Nina said quietly. Setsuna didn't notice that Nina was around.

"What's wrong?" Setsuna asked. He had a worried look on his face. He had never seen her like this. Was it that she was stuck with Genji? No, how could that be, he was a chick magnet.

Nina had always liked Genji. She was really attracted to him, like guys who get attracted by cute girls. But she didn't want to be attracted to Genji. She didn't like the fact that he was always swarmed by girls. She liked a guy who she could call her own without having any girls competing against her. She hated the fact that girls liked him, and she was scared that he wouldn't like her, or if he did, go for a prettier girl.

"Man, this sucks, why did I have to be so quiet when it came to this." Nina thought angrily. "I'd rather be with Setsuna then Genji right now. Setsuna is okay I guess. He's sweet, and nice. God, I really don't want to be stuck with Genji right now." Nina remarked to herself. She looked up and saw Genji and Sakura coming.

"Wow. she looks kind of cute." Setsuna said to himself. He was looking at Sakura, who was wearing a black furry jacket, with a pair of white sandals to go along with the attire. Nina had come in a normal small jacket with jeans. Genji was dressed up as if he was going to a dinner party and he was the main guest. He had on a nice long black coat, with matching vest and pants. He had in his hand a nice daisy.

"Here." Genji said with a nice smile. He reached out and handed Nina the daisy.

Nina was shocked. She didn't know what to do or say. Setsuna felt jealous, why didn't he think of that.

"Why didn't YOU give me a rose Setsuna?!?!?!" Sakura said jokingly towards Setsuna. She gave him a nice punch in the shoulder and smiled.

"Umm. Sorry?" Setsuna replied. He wasn't in the mood to argue.

"Okay, we should head off downtown. We should find a place to eat first, then go around and shop for some Christmas presents." Genji said with a dominate tone. He liked to rule the pack and boss people around. He also noticed that the rest of the group not up for leading, since he did suggest it.

The group started walking downtown, which was not too far from school. They had walked not too far when Nina looked and saw the cute glass roses that had the word "Love" inscribed on the petal. She had always secretly wanted to get one from a guy, but knew that it would be impossible. She took a last quick glance as she sped herself up to catch up with the group.

"What were you looking at?" asked Setsuna.

"Oh nothing" said Nina with a small smile of self denial.

"Lets eat at here." Genji said. He had stopped in front of Yoshi, the restaurant that they rarely went to because it was so packed but today was a slow day. They went inside and found their spots next to the windows. Setsuna of course picked the seat closest to the window and Genji sat with him. Nina sat directly across from Setsuna and asked him, "You okay? You look depressed today."

"Oh, it's nothing." Setsuna responded. No one knew what was on his mind. His mind was racing so many different things at once that he didn't know what to do. Setsuna had been thinking about her for awhile. His mind was on Sakura, and why she was so happy. He thought about how Nina had always punched him in the shoulder at times, and seemed so nice about it.

"I wonder why she always does that." Setsuna thought to himself. He was pondering about the book drop earlier that day.

"Setsuna, Yo, what are you going to have?" Genji remarked at Setsuna, who was drifting away again.

"Um, udon would be good. And um. just water." Setsuna replied. He didn't really feel like eating since he had eaten back at his dorm earlier. He looked back at Nina, who was ordering her meal, and noticed her small dimple. He always loved girls with dimples - he found them really cute - and always wanted to poke girls in their dimples when he saw them. But today he was not in the mood.

The food came, and they all went to eat their food. Setsuna really loved udon, and so did Nina. Genji and Sakura both had a nice serving of dragon rolls. They both loved sushi, and would go out and buy sushi at the eating hall at school.

Halfway through their dinner, Setsuna said the first word since the group started eating, "What happened to the store near the school. You know the one with the roses?"

"Oh, it moved, we passed it earlier, didn't you see?" Nina said happily - it was indeed her store.

"Oh. Nope, I didn't see it. show me later." Setsuna said softly.

"Why?" Nina asked.

"Just wondering." Setsuna said to Nina while trying to pick up more noodles from his bowl.

The group continued eating their food through a very uneventful dinner. Besides Setsunas question, the only thing that made the dinner exciting was when a short man accidentally spilled his drink over his date. Setsunas mind was thinking how he'd be the one doing that.

"Where do we want to go now?" Nina asked.

"Well, I have to go to buy something for a friend for Christmas, so lets go to the stationary store." Genji said softly.

The group each paid their portion of the meal and walked out into the December cold. It wasn't very cold, but Nina being a bit tender to cold weather, wrapped her arms around herself.

"I'll trade you Nina." Setsuna said to Nina, pulling off his coat.

"Thanks." Nina smiled while handing Setsuna her jacket. Setsuna couldn't believe how thin the jacket was, and he also couldn't believe how Nina could be cold, the weather was normal to him.

"Don't you care that you look like a girl Setsuna?" Genji mocked.

"Not really. It's not like anyone will care." Setsuna said defensively.

Nina gave Setsuna a smile while Sakura grabbed Setsunas arm. They looked like a real couple, other then the fact that Setsuna was now wearing a girls jacket. They walked into the stationary store and immediately Genji walked into the corner of the stationary store where he began looking for his binder that he wanted to get for one of his girl friends. Setsuna walked to the side of the store, where diaries laid amiss and began eyeing them.

"Which one do you think would last a girl and look cute?" Setsuna asked Sakura and Nina. Nina had completely abandoned Genji, who was too busy looking for his stuff.

"These look small, but that one is super cute!!!" said Sakura, who was pointing to a black dairy with the worlds "For Your Eyes Only" on the cover.

"She likes stuff with pretty pictures in it." Setsuna told Sakura.

"How about this one?" Nina asked. She had pulled out blue notepad looking diary. She thought it was cute, and had a dog like character on the inside. She smiled and handed it to Setsuna.

Setsuna had been at the store before, and had seen that diary and wanted to get it. He wanted to get the perfect diary for his friend. He smiled at Nina and said "Thanks, this will do."

He went to the counter, where he began pulling out his bills when he saw a matching pen. He grabbed it and laid it on the counter with the diary.

"Gift?" asked the clerk.

"Huh? Oh, yeah, and I got a card too." Setsuna said while pulling out his card. He didn't really have use for the gift card that would get him a free present once he hit 50 dollars, but it was Christmas and he had already gotten some stuff here before. The clerk handed him his change and smiled.

"Merry Christmas" the clerk added.

"Do you want the card Nina?" Setsuna said, sticking out the card towards her.

"Umm sure." Nina replied. She took the card and stuck it with her three other cards. She was a bit clumsy and kept misplacing them, so she had quite a collection.

"Why aren't you with Genji?" Setsuna asked Nina.

"Umm, I don't know?" Nina responded with an awkward feeling.

"Yo, you guys finished? I got my stuff." Genji said while raising his bag of stuff.

"Lets go to the Momicos, I need to buy someone a plushy." Nina told the group.

"Hrm. I gotta go buy a pendant for someone, want to split up and meet up somewhere?" Genji asked.

"Umm. we should all go together, it's not that late." Setsuna told Genji.

"It's okay, you guys can go, I'll take awhile." Nina said falsely. She wanted an excuse so badly to get away from Genji. "How could he be so heartless, he wouldn't even come with me and just goes on with his business. So much for a group date." she said to herself angrily. Her eyes were burning red with hatred towards Genji, yet she still liked him.

"How about we split up and go with our dates." Sakura asked the group. She wanted to go buy a bracelet for herself, and wanted a guy along to help her pick one out.

"Um. Sakura, do you want to come with me? I really have to pick out a pendant." Genji said hurryingly.

"What? Oh my god." Nina said to Genji. "Setsuna, come, I want to talk to you. Let's leave the 'busy guy' alone." added Nina.

The other three were quite speechless at the moment. Nina had a sudden outburst of anger, and none of them knew what was going on. Setsuna was kind of in a panic. He didn't want an argument to start, and didn't really know what to do. His date was going to be switched, and he had no idea if this would be a good idea or a bad idea.

"Okay, sure thing." Sakura said to Nina. "Have fun! Tehehehe!" Sakura told Setsuna, and with a slap on Setsunas shoulder, dragged Genji before he knew what was happening.

Nina looked at Setsuna and said quietly "I can't hold this in any longer Setsuna; I have to tell you."
