Ayame concentrated hard, trying to be as professional as possible--careful not to press down to hard or paint on her skin by accident.

"Ayame-san, they're going to be beautiful!" Mine squeaked and almost fell over at the sight. The nail polish that Ayame had chosen adornded her small nails in a pretty shade of light blue; powder. Ayame had said it would compliment her eyes, which were as bright and open as the sky itself. She had, of course, blushed with a fever.

"Of course they will Mine-chan! I'm doing them, and their on you. That automatically makes them lovely," Ayame teased, taking on his usual playful, hinting tone. That's what made her love him.

"Oh Ayame-san," she moaned playfully, recovering from her thought quickly, "You're an awful tease!"

Mine sighed, dipping her head to take a closer look at his handy work as he finished up; their heads were close enough to touch. She continued to compliment and thank him relentlessly.

"No, no, Mine. The pleasure is all mine," he cracked, almost doubling over onto the floor at the use of his 'corny play on English' joke. He laughed hysterically with laughter as the girl sat still in her seat.

Mine sighed, again, in happiness, inwardly becoming rather somber. When will this stop? She asked herself while smiling on the outside. When will we stop doing this dance?

"Mine, where have you gone? Hello?" Ayame said, playfully pretending to knock on her head. Apparently while thinking, she'd stopped laughing. Would could blame her?

"Sorry Ayame-san, I was just thinking about something. Nothing to worry about." Mine responded with more enthusiasm, trying to hide; she guessed she wasn't exactly helping the situation herself. She was just as guilty at avoiding the situation as him. We are doomed!

"Oh, my Mine, it's alright. I know you like to wander while you wonder!" He spoke the phrase in a sing-song voice before bending over swiftly, brushing the bangs on her forehead aside. He slowly placed a delicate peck upon her forehead.

Ayame took the time to linger.

A/N: Yay! Ayame and Mine. I wrote this one pretty quick... Actually in class earlier. So it is not my best work, by any means, but I think it's cute and sappy nonetheless.
