Chapter Eight

The loud chatter of the guest was broken by Ferio calling for silence.

"I would like to make a toast!" Ferio called out.

Nova's eyes lite up.

"A toast to Fuu-chan, and our ever lasting love." Ferio said sweetly.

"Ooh! Toast!" Nova said as something glinted in her eye.

She wanted to toast Hikaru and Lantis!

As Ferio raised his glass, Nova raised her hand.

"Ok, so maybe when I first said I love you, I didn't mean it. Or at least I didn't think I did." Ferio began.

Nova put her hand down realizing that a toast didn't mean actually toasting. "Aww fluff bunnies!"

Hikaru gave Nova a funny look, but Nova just smiled sweetly.

"But I realized that you are perfect, everything I could ever want." Ferio said as he gave Fuu a dreamy look.

Nova slipped down out of her chair and under the table. Ferio was being waayyyyy to boring for her. Nova crawled along under the table on her hands and knees, and she decided to tie Fuu and Ferio's shoes together.

"Heh-heh," Nova laughed as she hurried.

Ferio finished his rather long, mushy, and passionate speech/toast.

"Dinner, is served." Said Lantis.

Nova's head jerked up and she banged it on the under side of the table.

"YOW! HOLY FLUFF BUNNIES! THAT HURT!" Nova cried.

Nova slipped back up into her seat and rubbed her now throbbing head.

"Ummm." Hikaru began.

"I dropped my fork." Nova lied.

Lantis and Hikaru were talking about redoing their bathroom, which bored Nova no end.

"I think you should paint the room black!" Nova cried.

"Umm," Lantis began.

Suddenly Primera returned.

"You!" Primera yelled as she pointed at Nova.

"Me?!" Nova squeaked.

Primera nodded.

Nova shook her head. "No, not me."

Primera looked confused.

"Her," Nova said pointing at Umi.

Again Primera looked confused, and now Umi joined her in that confusion.

"Me?" Umi said.

Nova nodded. "Duh."

"It wasn't me!" Umi cried.

Primera's eyes darted back and forth between Nova and Umi.

"It was him!" Nova cried as she pointed a finger at Clef.

"It's rude to point." Hikaru whispered.

Nova nodded and pointed at Primera. "It was you."

Now Primera was in a state of total confusion.

Clef was oblivious to everything going on, he was busy flirting with the "Clef Fan Club."

"You see, I was the one who actually saved Cephiro." Clef said.

"Ooooo!" Said all the girls.

"You see, I was only PRETENDING to be stone." Clef said.

"Wow! You can do that?!" One of the girl's cried.

"But if I hadn't have been able to tell those Magic Knights stuff, then they wouldn't have saved Cephiro." Clef said.

"Amazing!"

"I was the real hero in all of this. I'm the real leader too, I mean c'mon, Hikaru would be nothing with out me!" Clef said.

Nova once again slide under the table and headed to where Clef sat. She proceeded to stab Clef's foot with her fork.

"YAAAA!" Clef cried.

"What is it Clef?!" The fan club cried.

"MY FOOT!" He yelled.

Nova returned to her seat to be greeted by yet another look from Hikaru.

"Ummm dropped my fork again, and this time it stabbed into baka-Clef, I mean Clef's foot." Nova said with a bright smile.

Hikaru shook her head. "Why did you stab Clef?"

"Because that's what he gets for making things up!" Nova yelled.

Clef now sank down into his seat.

Hikaru sighed.

Nova then noticed she had dinner sitting on her plate! It was....CHICKEN! She shoved her entire piece of meat into her mouth and was then unable to chew.

"Ifff duuuck!" Nova cried.

Nova finally swallowed the entire piece of meat. She then sighed because she only had bread and vegetables left. She put her elbow on the table, and it sank down into something gooey. It was butter!

"Buttered elbow!" Nova cried.

No one laughed.

"This is most certainly not going as I had planed." Fuu said with a sigh.
