Well thank you for all the reviews thus far I greatly appreciate them I drive to serve heh. Now here is the next chapter of Attel Academy!

Ticket mastering

With the small burning of my eyes upon awakening, the vivid memories of winning a cross dressing contest renewed itself into my battered mind. Feeling warm I sat up to find myself against a warm body, feeling tone muscles against my touch I felt that I knew were I was, within those safe arms of Cli-. Wait a minute; grasping the material within my hands that happened to cover this person's chest I felt the body seemed to be a bit scrawny compared to Cliff's. My eyes suddenly wide open I gazed upwards to find crimson orbs starring at me with an amused smirk, feeling my cheeks grow warm from embarrassment. I could only berate myself for becoming so lightheaded within the excitement of the contest. Oh, I know I will have hell to pay, Cliff must be wondering where the heck I am.

Looking around the vicinity for a bit of a few seconds I had to see where I was now. We were both in the courtyard near our dorm room building; meaning lots of cover from people as there were a lot of trees and shrubs. I suppose we were in a small clearing not too far from the edge but my attention was now set on Albel as he was a current threat at the moment.

"E-excuse me, could you please put me down Albel." Stuttering on my first word I looked away from his face as he held me bridal style to easily.

"Now why would I do that my fair swan princess." Came that smug cool voice that he just had, which might I add seemed to a bit more alluring and dazed at the moment.

"Because ALBEL, Cliff would become very angry at the notice of my presence missing." Does he want to go through hell?

"So." Yes he does. Sighing as my futile attempt of asking nicely failed, I tried to push myself away from those encircling arms but. They sure did play a well illusion of looking weak but being in fact very strong.

"Fayt, you were so very lovely, you still are, you have captured my attention." His voice now seemed gentle and loving, hearing it as such made me feel a bit weak at the knees. My heart had skipped a beat or two, and my cheeks grew with a deeper shade of pink, what is he doing to me?

"Thank you." Looking down to cover my flushed face I couldn't think of what to say, though once I felt his warm fingertips against my cheek my heart began to skip a beat before rushing to regain its quickening heart rate. His palm cupping my cheek, I felt a tug at my chin as he pulled my face up to gaze upon his façade. Leaning his head down, he slowly brushed his thumb against my bottom lip making me awe in surprise at his sudden affection. Seeing his face begin to descend closer to mine, I felt my eyes growing wide as the nearness of our lips, tilting his head to side he brushed his lips gently along mine. "Fayt…" Hearing my named in such a hushed but lustful voice, I couldn't help but feel myself being drawn in. Feeling a pang in my chest I suddenly remember Cliffs gentle nature, I suddenly felt bad for what I was about to do so, placing my hands upon Albel's chest, I used my strength to push him away from me.

"I'm sorry Albel, I can't" Turning away from him I headed towards our building as it was visible through the forest and shrubbery. Sighing I pulled the door open to the main entrance. "Congrats Fayt!" cried the manager of the house.

"Thank you." Upon smiling I made way towards the stairs ascending onto the second floor then the third. Turning the knob to my room I lived with Cliff, I seated myself upon a small wooden chair facing a desk, not bothering to change I rested my arms upon the wood before resting my head upon my arms. Falling slowly asleep I heard footsteps coming towards the door, my tiredness now fading fast I was worried that it might be Albel. As the door opened my fear was squished by seeing Cliffs self, "Fayt! Here you are." Walking to stand beside me with relief expressed on him, I answered him "I needed a bit of a break for now." Nodding his head in approval Cliff passed his hands tenderly through my hair, his arms then enveloping me I smelled a bit of a spiced sweet scent from him. How could he hold me so possessively but still so tenderly, "Come on, lets take this off of you, I'm sure you're tired of wearing this thing." Cliff would speak as he patted my back gently.

"Okay." Nodding in agreement I stood up from me seat at the desk and turned to face the small closet within our room, opening the doors I pulled a hanger out for the dress. Without realizing it, I was beginning to undress in front of Cliff, as the material slipped halfway down my body I gasped and covered myself. Now, I know I have dressed in front of Cliff before but, why does this time feel so different, is it because I am dressed as a girl I gained female qualities even more? NO! I am a man! I should not feel different about changing near other guys; commence the undressing! With my mind decided I just let the dress slip on down my body with no hesitation, taking the crown off and my wig off I set them on the desk near by. Moving to the small white, porcelain sink, I dampened a little owl I grabbed from the towel rack and began to wipe my face clean, how could girls do this everyday, I do not know.

"Done!" shouting, a grin would slip against my lips as I had triumphantly changed from female to male again. Hearing a chuckle I knew that I had once again made Cliff laugh with my antics, guess I'm still a little entertainment thing for him. "Well that was quick but, I think you need more clothing, then just your boxers, Hahahahahahahahah" Oh, blushing again I berated myself in my head for not dressing myself, argh! Going back to the closet I reached for my shorts and a white dress shirt, slipping my olive green shorts on I just zipped them up and buttoned the only button there and was about set once I put my shirt on. So now placing my clean white, long sleeved dress shirt, I buttoned the line of buttons till I saw an adequate length to stop at, smirking with a now full completion I slid my hands into my pockets and just looked at Cliff.

I suppose it was my defiant look or just how I seemed at the moment but, Cliff seemed to have a yearning look upon his face as he looked at me, those eyes that gave a stare that drew me in, began to draw me in! Stepping towards Cliff my face just stared at him, strong firm arm wrapped themselves around my waist; drawing me tight against his body. "Fayt, did you choose who you were going to take out on a date? You received two tickets right."

"Uh, yeah, let me get them." Moving towards the costume I searched all over for the tickets but I couldn't fine them! "Is something wrong Fayt?"

"Yeah! They are gone!" The tickets were gone! Did I drop them? Where are they! Searching franticly I was only successful in finding only one ticket, my ticket. With a sigh of defeat I sat down on the desk chair again, "Don't worry about it kid, I say you just go on by yourself and spoil yourself, you've earned it."

"Are you sure?" Nodding he folded his arms across his chest signifying that he was very sure. "Alright, I'll go by myself." Smiling softly I placed the only ticket on the desk. "I am always in this room with you Fayt, its our little world, a dinner would be just the same."

Little did we know that the ticket was indeed near by, it was not lost but stolen, and low and behold a man with crimson eyes was the ticket master of the missing ticket.

Yay! Chapter 7 is done! Which is chapter eight. Ehem. For a special reason… Anyways! I hope you enjoyed this chapter! I was up late doing this and have fun with your days everyone R&R.
