Chapter 16

Akko's Birthday

"So where are we going now?" Akko asked excitedly as she bounced up and down in the passenger seat of Amanda's car, and then stuffing yet another chocolate into her mouth from a box that she had received as a present from her red haired friend.

After an early morning practice on Akko's birthday, her housemates had taken her out for breakfast. And afterward, Amanda, Sucy and Lotte had taken her to her favorite sweets shop and each bought her something of her choice. They had never known anyone besides Akko who would be perfectly content if they only received gifts of chocolate and candy for their birthday, but they would have to admit that the brunette's simplicity was part of why they all adored her. She was the farthest from high maintenance that anyone could possibly get. Which only furthered her friend's confusion of how Akko ended up with Diana of all people. Opposites attract, apparently.

"Yeah, where are we going? I've had enough excitement for one day already." Sucy deadpanned from the backseat, making Lotte giggle beside her.

"Just one more stop, Sucy." Amanda replied as she turned the car onto a narrow back road leading to a not so favorable part of town. "I have have one more present for you, Akko." The redhead smiled mischievously at the brunette sitting next to her, causing the girl's eyes to widen significantly as she paused chewing on whatever sweet she had previously shoved into her mouth.

They drove for only a few minutes longer before the car slowed and Amanda turned into a small parking lot in front of a small shop. Akko suspiciously eyed the building, noticing the darkened windows, no doubt aiming to hide whatever items that were for sale inside.

"Blue Bunny Boutique?" The brunette glanced at the redhead with her eyebrow arched. "What kind of store is this?"

"Amanda! You brought her HERE for a birthday gift?" Lotte asked, horrified.

"But what is this place?" Akko turned to Lotte now for some answers, but the girl only laughed nervously as she glanced at the shop they were now parked in front of.

"Kehehe. I can't wait to see her face." Sucy now wore a wide evil grin that made the brunette shift uncomfortably in her seat.

"But-"

"Okay, come on birthday girl!" Amanda cut Akko off as she opened her door and got out quickly. The girls in the back seat followed leaving a confused brunette alone in the car.

Akko swallowed nervously as she again looked at the mysterious building in front of her. It couldn't be that bad right? If Amanda had thought it'd make a good birthday present, there had to be something that Akko would enjoy in there. Right? The more rational part of the brunette's brain forced her to get over her nervousness and place her trust in her friends. So she opened the door and slowly got out of the car, and within seconds she was standing with her friends in front of the darkened glass doors leading into the shop.

Amanda opened the door for Akko and both Sucy and Lotte gestured for her to go in first as well, so she took a deep breath and entered. It took a moment for her eyes to adjust to the dim lighting of the store, but when they did, she was left standing there in confusion. The brunette's eyes glanced over the many rows of lingerie and costumes. To her right was a station she recognized as small area where piercings were done along with a large jewelry counter. To her left was a separate room, the door leading into it covered with strings of beads. Akko narrowed her eyes and took another long look over the vast area before turning to Amanda.

"So you're...gonna buy me lingerie?" The brunette asked with her eyebrows raised.

"What? No! Of course not you weirdo." Amanda replied in disbelief as she took a step back.

"I'm the weirdo? You brought me to...this place for a gift!" Akko gestured wildly to the large area in front of them before continuing. "What else was I supposed to think?"

"Akko! Just calm down." The redhead pleaded as she looked around and flashed apologetic smiles toward the few people who had turned to the sound of Akko's raised voice. "Unless, you wanted to find some lingerie that would fry the princess's brain." Amanda smirked as the brunette actually considered the idea before shaking her head.

"Well if you didn't bring me here for lingerie, what did you bring me here for?" The brunette's voice was now at an acceptable volume, and she seemed utterly confused once more.

"Ah yes, back on track." Amanda nodded as she threw an arm around Akko's shoulders and began leading her toward the doorway covered by the ridiculous strings of beads. "Let me enlighten you."

They approached the doorway and the redhead pulled the hesitant brunette past the beads until they were fully inside the mystery room.

"Tadaaa!" Amanda sang, spreading one arm out wide and holding Akko firmly with the other as to not allow the brunette to run away.

"Gah!" Akko gasped loudly and brought her balled fists up to her chest as she realized what items were covering the walls and various shelves. "Sex toys?" She squeaked out loudly and tried backing away, only to be held in place by her red haired friend. "What the hell, Amanda?!"

"Oh come on, Akko. Now that you and Cavendish are doing...the do, I figured my best friend could use a little adventure. Everyone could use a little adventure in their sex lives. Am I right?" Amanda turned and winked knowingly at the other girls who stared back at her in shock. Akko didn't miss the look the redhead gave her friends and turned to look at the embarrassed girls as well.

"You...you guys use this stuff?" The brunette asked in shock. "Lotte? You?"

"Well…?" Lotte began wringing her hands nervously in front of herself and looked to Sucy, who was looking anywhere but at the girls in front of her.

"You and...Sucy? You're…?" Akko's jaw dropped and a light bulb all but appeared over her head.

"Took you long enough, Kagari." Amanda snickered at the utter shock on the brunette's face. "These two have been going at it fo-"

"I think she gets it, O'Neill." Sucy spat out venomously, successfully cutting the redhead off.

"Everyone just...calm down, okay?" Lotte stepped in front of Sucy with her hands held up, attempting to defuse the situation before turning to the brunette. "Akko. Sucy and I are a couple." She stated shyly.

"Oh." Akko nodded slowly for a moment before she flashed a brilliant smile. "That's really great you guys! Congratulations."

"Thank you, Akko." Lotte breathed out in relief.

"But why didn't you tell me?" The brunette furrowed her brows.

"W-well, we were...um...we haven't been together for that long. We just..." The orange haired girl trailed off, looking to her girlfriend for help, who in turn looked at her with a raised eyebrow and boredly turned to Akko.

"We had a lot of sex before we made it official." Sucy said, shrugging.

"Sucy!" Lotte squeaked as she covered her face in horror.

"What?" The purple haired girl droned.

"Oookay, let's get this train back on the rails, shall we?" Amanda grabbed Akko's shoulders and turned her attention back to the room. "Why don't you look around around, Akko. I'm sure you can find something you'd like to try with Diana."

Akko said nothing as she swallowed thickly and nodded before she slowly made her way to one of the walls covered in shelves.

"Amanda, this was a terrible idea." Lotte whispered in concern to the girl next to her.

"Come on, every self respecting lesbian needs sex toys. It's like...the law or something." The redhead whispered back.

"But they haven't been together for that long. You don't think this will freak Cavendish out?" Sucy raised her one eyebrow as she watched Akko pick up a long dildo and jiggled it in front of herself before putting it back with a disgusted look on her face, causing her three friends to silently shake with laughter.

"I'll bet money that the princess owns at least one toy." Amanda said in amusement.

"You think so?" Lotte asked with her eyebrows raised.

"Hey, do you think Diana is a top or bottom?" Sucy asked curiously, tilting her head as she watched Akko now poking something that resembled a...butt? The purple haired girl rolled her eye and turned fully to face her friends.

"Bottom." Amanda said.

"Top." Lotte said at the same time.

The two girls turned to each other with their eyebrows raised.

"How could you think she's a bottom? She's clearly the dominant type." The orange haired girl looked incredulously at the redhead.

"I don't think so. She possesses a lot of power with everything else, I'll bet she like's to be controlled in bed though." Amanda brought her hand up to rub her chin. "Sucy, what do you think?

"I think she's a switch. I think it depends on what Akko-"

"Hey guys!" Akko's voice rang out from the other side of the room, making all three girls turn to look at her. They all smacked their foreheads immediately when they took in the sight. Akko wore a strap on and swung the appendage back and forth as she laughed so hard she was beginning crying.

"I take that back. I really hope Diana's a top for her own sake." Sucy shook her head in exasperation at the brunette's antics while the other two girls nodded in silent agreement with their purple haired friend.

"We should probably help her if we want to get out of here anytime soon." Amanda chuckled as she moved toward Akko who was now struggling with the straps and mumbling obscenities. Lotte and Sucy sighed and followed after the redhead.

A short while later, Amanda huffed as she opened her car door and got inside angrily before slamming it shut. A snickering Lotte and Sucy were the next to get in, and an utterly embarrassed brunette was the last to silently enter the vehicle. The redhead started her car up quickly and screeched out of the parking spot.

"I said I was sorry." Akko finally said shamefully after a few minutes of silence.

"You're sorry? You got us kicked out!" Amanda half shouted.

"Well in my defense, I think they were overreacting a little bit." The brunette huffed and crossed her arms in a pout.

"You were sword fighting with a sex toy! Who even...I just...how can you..." The redhead trailed off in disbelief at the situation that had just occurred.

"Well why in the hell were they so long? Why would someone even buy something like that?!" Akko shouted back and threw her hands in the air, causing another bout of snickering from the back seat.

"Its not...ugh. Akko it was for two..." Amanda paused with a long sigh. "You know what, never mind. This was a terrible idea."

"Told you so." Lotte chimed in from behind the redhead.

"No comments from the peanut gallery." Amanda grumbled and glared into the rear view mirror.

"Amanda, why would taking me there even cross your mind?" Akko asked curiously.

"Well the way you and Diana go at it like horny rabbits every time you see each other I just figured you would appreciate a li-"

"What do you mean? We haven't done anything since Friday night!"

"Seriously? Why?" Amanda asked with an arched brow.

"Because we just...haven't. I don't know. We were just so happy to be together that we didn't even think about it. We can be together and not have sex." Akko grumbled quietly.

"So what your saying is that Diana's going to come back from Germany a thirsty mess and she's going to bo-"

"I didn't say that at all!" Akko shouted, her face was quickly being overtaken by a blush.

"Sooo what you're saying is that you will be a thirsty mess when she gets back and you're gone to bo-"

"Stooooop." The brunette whined as she rubbed her forehead in annoyance.

"But...it's true isn't it?"

"...yes."

Diana sat at the bar of the airport VIP lounge staring out into the storm through the large glass walls to her right. She looked at her watch and groaned for what seemed like the hundredth time in the past hour after hearing the announcement that her flight was once again delayed. She jumped at the loud thunder that shook the world around her before sighing and taking another sip of the drink in front of her. She should have been home right now and getting ready for her girlfriend's party, which she was now going to be late to, if she made it there at all, that is.

"Something on your mind?"

Diana jumped again at the voice coming from close behind her. She turned her head to the figure who was now settling into the seat beside her.

"Oh! Hello, Anna. I didn't expect to see you again before we left." The blonde straightened up at the presence of her colleague, emulating the proper lady that she was meant to be.

"And I didn't expect to find you here, of all places." Anna chuckled and put her hand up to get the bartender's attention.

"Yes, well, there aren't many other options when you're stuck in an airport for 3 hours." Diana finished the last of her drink and set it down harder than she had meant to, eliciting a look of surprise from the older woman.

"Yes ma'am, what can I get you?" The bartender pulled Anna's attention away from the stressed blonde.

"Oh, I'll have whatever she's having, and another for her as well."

The bartender smiled and nodded before turning away to get the drinks ready and the older woman turned to the younger one with a look of concern.

"Are you alright, Diana?" Anna asked softly as she put her hand on the blonde's shoulder.

"I'm...no. I'm not fine. I'm going to be late for a very important event tonight." Diana ran her hand though her hair and hunched over with her elbows on the bar and her head resting in her hand. "Unless we're stuck here all night." She then grumbled under her breath.

"I see. Something to do with your friends I imagine?" The older woman asked as two drinks were set down on the bar in front of them. She quietly thanked the bartender and flashed a small smile before turning her attention back to Diana who had already picked her drink up and was sipping on it.

"Girlfriend, actually. Her birthday party is tonight." The blonde tiredly sighed. "I can't seem to get things right, Anna. I promised her I would be there. I promised I'd never make it seem as if this job was more important, yet here we are." She gestured around the lounge and took another drink. "I don't want to let her down again." She added softly.

"I think you may be over thinking this, Diana. You hold quite a powerful position but you do not have power over the weather my dear. I'm sure she'll understand." Anna smiled at her warmly before taking a sip of her own drink and her face twisted instantly. "Goodness this is strong. What is it?" She asked as she looked down at the offending drink.

"Vodka."

"Vodka?" The older woman quirked an eyebrow at that. "I wasn't aware you had a taste for anything other than wine?"

"To be honest, I do have a taste for many things other than wine. Though wine is always the safest option." Diana smiled in amusement before she continued. "Hannah and Barbara wouldn't be happy with me if they knew I was indulging myself with vodka."

"And why is that?" Anna inquired before grimacing again after taking another sip of the strong liquid.

"Apparently I get quite mean...among other reasons." The blonde blushed as she thought back to the morning that Barbara had fainted. "But don't worry, Anna, I haven't had enough for it to take full effect."

"Good, I quite like this new job you know. I can't have you firing me after only a few weeks." Anna smirked at the young CEO who in turned chuckled and playfully slapped the older woman's shoulder.

They fell into a comfortable silence as they listened to the rain hitting the windows and the quiet music filling the otherwise silent lounge. Diana idly spun her small glass around, lost in thought, while Anna watched the younger woman with a mix of fondness and sadness.

"You know," Anna broke the silence. "you're mother would be so proud of the woman you've become, Diana." The young CEO swiftly turned her head and looked at the older woman in surprise at the odd change of subject. "You are the spitting image of her. It's as if she'd been cloned, both her looks and her rather...strong personality."

"I hope that is a positive thing." Diana said as she arched her eyebrow in amusement.

"Well, if I was being honest, it probably depends on who you ask." The older woman chuckled, her eyes full of mirth as Diana's jaw dropped. "She had an affinity for getting into some rather precarious situations with your father when they were teenagers. Although I can't be sure which one of them was truly to blame."

"No! It couldn't have been my mother." Diana laughed at this newfound information. Her mother had always been warm and lighthearted as far as the blonde could remember. But a troublemaker?

"I don't doubt your father had quite the influence on her, but he isn't the one who started a bar fight and ended up in handcuffs."

"Anna! You can't be serious!" The blonde's eyebrows were raised as far as they could go as she stared at the chuckling older woman.

"Oh your grandfather was livid." The older woman laughed for a moment longer and then sighed a happy sigh at the memory. "She was a remarkable woman. But she never took herself too seriously. I'm just truly sorry that you weren't able spend more time with her Diana." Anna reached over and squeezed Diana's hand when she saw the sadness take over the young woman's expression and continued. "You were forced to mature so quickly, I forget you're only nineteen years old. And I think you do as well."

"I'm afraid I don't know what you mean, Anna." The blonde replied as she furrowed her eyebrows in confusion.

"I mean you are nineteen years old, Diana. Don't be afraid to act like it. If your mother can get arrested at nineteen, you can let loose once in a while." Anna could see Diana about to argue the point so she put her hand up to stop her and continued. "At work, you can be Diana Cavendish, CEO. But outside of work, you are simply Diana, nineteen year old college student. Have fun and be young. You owe it to yourself. And your mother would, no doubt, agree with me."

Before Diana could reply, an announcement came over the speakers in the lounge alerting everyone that the flights would begin leaving again now that the storm had mostly passed. Anna quickly stood up and gathered her things.

"Just think about it. And I'll talk to you soon. You have a party to get to, yes?"

"Yes." Diana flashed a brilliant smile at the older woman, who smiled back warmly and nodded before she turned and left. "Yes." She whispered to herself and pulled out her phone as she grabbed her bag and began to walk quickly out of the lounge. The blonde selected the contact she was looking for and pressed the call button before putting the phone up to her ear. It rang only twice before the call was picked up.

"Diana! Are you back yet? Do you need us to come and pick you up? Where are you?"

"Barbara!" Diana shouted, successfully stopping the barrage of questions.

"S-sorry, Diana."

"It's quite alright. But I need a favor from you and Hannah."

"Of course. What is it?"

"I'm still in Germany at the moment. My flight was delayed due to a terrible storm but I'm about to board now. Which means I'll be quite late to the party so I need you to stall. I don't want it to end before I get there."

"Stall. Okay, I'm sure we can come up with something."

"Just don't do anything...um..."

"We won't do anything stupid, Diana."

"Thank goodness. Okay, I've arrived at my gate. I'll see you soon, Barb."

"Okay, Diana. Have a safe flight."

"What do you mean stall?" Amanda asked after she was unceremoniously pulled out of her house by a certain duo and filled in on Diana's situation. "How late is she going to be?"

"We're not sure yet but she wants to be here before it's over." Barbara replied.

"I'm guessing she'll be about another hour and a half, give or take." Hannah added.

"But everyone is here already, what am I supposed to do?" Amanda looked back into her house nervously. "What are we gonna tell Akko?"

"Just keep her busy. She won't notice." Hannah shrugged.

"Really?" The redhead arched an eyebrow. "You really think she's just not gonna notice that her girlfriend is two hours late to her birthday party because she's busy?"

"Then get her drunk. Maybe she won't notice then." The auburn haired girl crossed her arms and rolled her eyes.

"Ugh. Why don't we just tell her? She'll understand that Diana's flight was delayed." Amanda said in exasperation.

"I'm sure that's fine, Amanda. If she asks. All we were asked to do is make sure the party doesn't end. It sounded like Diana had something planned." Barbara began to walk inside but was stopped by someone grabbing her arm.

"You don't think..." Amanda trailed off with her eyebrows raised.

"Honestly I don't give a damn as long as it's not me this time." The black haired girl shivered and continued into the house.

"Cavendish scarred her for life." Amanda snickered after watching Barbara leave and then turned back to Hannah, who had an odd expression on her face. "What?"

With out a word, Hannah grabbed the front of the redhead's shirt and pulled her in for a surprisingly soft kiss. The auburn haired haired girl snaked her arms around Amanda's neck before she pulled away and stared into surprised emerald green eyes.

"What are we, Amanda?" Hannah's tone and expression were completely serious, catching the redhead off guard.

"What?"

"I can't be someone you just hook up with once in a while. I refuse to be used like that. So I need to know if this is going anywhere, Amanda. You need to tell me." The desperation in Hannah's voice broke through Amanda's confused daze.

"I...um..." The redhead was at a loss for words as she stared back at the shorter girl.

"Ugh. Look, I may not have a flare for the dramatic like Diana, so I'm just going to come right out and ask." Hannah cleared her throat and took a deep breath before closing her eyes tightly. "Will you...um...b-be my girlfriend?" The auburn haired girl winced at her stuttering and opened her eyes to see Amanda's reaction, which was pure confusion.

"I thought I already was."

"How could...we never even talked about it!"

"I thought it was implied."

"Implied? God you're such a dunce."

"But you're the one who asked this dunce to be her girlfriend. I'm officially your dunce now."

"I'm already beginning to regret that decision."

"You love me and you know it."

Hannah opened the door and was immediately met by a hyperactive brunette that had crossed the room at an impressive speed when the door opened.

"Oh. H-hey Hannah. Is um...Diana with you?" Akko asked as she leaned to the side as to see behind the pair better.

"That didn't last long." Amanda mumbled before receiving a sharp elbow to the ribs.

"Unfortunately Diana's flight was delayed. But she's going to be here as soon as she can." Hannah tried to say as lightheartedly as she could manage.

"Oh. Okay." The brunette's shoulders hunched and she looked around sadly at the house full of people.

"Hey Akko. Ready to get your ass handed to you at beer pong?" Amanda spoke up, knowing exactly what to do to get her friend's mind off of her missing girlfriend. Anything competitive would surely do. And to the redheads delight, Akko looked up with a mischievous glint in her eye and a bright smile on her face.

"I'd love to see you try, O'Neill."

About twenty minutes later, Amanda stood on a chair in the middle of a crowd of girls in the kitchen holding up a piece of paper covered in her own chicken scratch handwriting.

"Welcome to the first annual Akko's birthday beer pong tournament!" She shouted jovially and was met with cheers and whoops from the crowd consisting of close friends and teammates of the brunette. "Alright. Akko and I have selected the teams which are on here," The redhead pointed to the paper in her hand. "along with where you are placed on the bracket and who you will be facing off against." Amanda jumped off of the chair and placed the paper on the fridge with a spare magnet that happened to resemble a stein of beer.

The girls gathered around the fridge after the redhead moved to stand beside Hannah. The soon to be competitors let out a mix of happy 'yes's' and annoyed groans when they found out who'd they'd be teaming up with before mostly everyone grabbed their drinks or food and moved toward the back patio where the table had already been set up.

"You girls never half ass a party, do you." Hannah turned to her girlfriend with a smirk and an eyebrow raised.

"You know it, babe." Amanda winked and flashed a toothy grin. "Or shall I say, beer pong partner."

"Amanda, I've never played beer pong. You'll probably lose!" Hannah took a step away, putting her hands up in front of herself.

"I'll teach you. And to be honest, as long as I'm having fun with you, I don't really care if I lose." The redhead moved closer and wrapped her arms around Hannah's waist.

"You don't really care if you lose?" The auburn haired girl's lips twitched. "How bad did that hurt to say?"

"It was excruciatingly painful." Amanda deadpanned in reply making her girlfriend giggle.

"Well then, we better win." Hannah stood on her tip toes to give the redhead one last sweet kiss before leaning in close to Amanda's ear. "And I'll be sure to give you a special prize if we do." Hannah then turned and walked toward the back door, making sure to swing her hips seductively before turning back and winking as she disappeared through the back door, leaving a completely shocked Amanda standing in the kitchen alone.

"God I love that girl." She whispered to herself.

"Did I just hear what I thought I heard?"

"Gah!" Amanda gasped loudly and jumped at the unexpected voice behind her. She spun around and was welcomed with the familiar smirk of a certain waitress. "God! Jennifer! You scared the shit out of me." The redhead held her chest dramatically making the other girl chuckle.

"Has someone finally tamed the wild Amanda O'Neill? I'm impressed."

"Shut up." Amanda mumbled but let a small smile break through nonetheless.

"Alright. So tell me, who is this," Jennifer paused to look at the beer pong bracket before proceeding. "Barbara that you've paired me up with?"

"Oh, right." Amanda gestured for Jennifer to follow her to the kitchen window that looked out onto the patio. "She's the black haired girl right there talking to Lotte." The redhead pointed to Barbara and Jennifer's gaze followed.

"Oh. Wow." Jennifer blushed and cleared her throat. "I-I mean she's...uh...cute."

"Mmhmm." Amanda glanced sideways and continued. "And she's a big Nightfall nerd just like you."

"I...I'm not...wait!" Jennifer reluctantly pulled her gaze away from Barbara to turn to Amanda fully. "You're not trying to set us up are you?"

"Of course...not. Of course not!" The redhead put her hands up in surrender at the waitress's glare. "Akko and I just thought you'd make good teammates. That's all, I promise!"

"That better be it. Or else I'll tell your girlfriend all about how you like to-"

"Ooookay. N-no need for that. Heh heh. Let's just go meet your teammate shall we?" Amanda nervously blurted out before grabbing Jennifer's arm and dragging her toward the back door.

They entered the patio area where the table was set up and a match had already started. Akko and Jasminka were teamed up against two girls from their hockey team. Music blared from the speakers still installed in the gazebo and girls were chatting loudly in big groups around the large area. After weaving their way through various people and obstacles, Amanda and Jennifer approached the small group of Lotte, Sucy and Barbara who turned when they heard the incoming girls.

"Hey Barbs, this is your beer pong partner, Jennifer. Jennifer, this is Barbara." The redhead gestured to each of them.

The two girls stared at each other for a moment before Jennifer shook her head slightly and held out her hand and smiled nervously.

"It's very nice to meet you, Barbara."

"Yeah. I mean, you too. It's nice to meet you too." The black haired girl reached out and shook the Jennifer's hand and lingered a little longer than what was normal before suddenly pulling her hand away and clearing her throat.

"Alright. You guys just...talk about whatever you nightfall nerds talk about." Amanda turned to walk away and began to chuckle when she was met with three disgruntled girls yelling 'hey' and one purple haired girl cackling behind her.

Diana stepped out of a black town car parked on the curb and retrieved her bag from the driver before offering a small thanks before walking across the yard to the front door of the house. She could hear loud music blaring and laughs and yells of unruly girls from the back yard, and she was relieved that it sounded as if the party wasn't going to die down anytime soon. Before she could knock or walk in, the door quickly opened and Hannah and Barbara ran out to greet her with aggressive hugs causing the three girls to almost tumble to the ground. This gave the blonde a sneaking suspicion that she was going to be the only person here who wasn't already completely drunk.

"Girls, please." Diana struggled to breath out.

"Sorry, Diana!" Barbara literally jumped back as she shouted.

Hannah just giggled as she swayed and stepped back to put an arm around Barbara's shoulders. The blonde narrowed her eyes at the both of them.

"Just how drunk are you two?"

"Have you ever heard of beer pong, Diana?" Hannah was now loudly whispering for no apparent reason.

"...Yes." Diana hesitantly replied but was only met with giggling from the other girl who had clearly forgotten she had been in a conversation. "Akko's not...this drunk is she?" She asked as she gestured in the general direction of her two friends.

"Oooh, Akko is really good at beer pong." Barbara stated in awe. "So is Jennifer." She then said dreamily.

"...Who?" The blonde was very confused now. Just how much had she missed?

"Come on, Diana. Let's go get you your Akko!" Hannah shouted as she linked arms with the blonde and began to pull her inside the house.

"Wait, ladies, I need to speak to Amanda first before we let Akko know that I'm here." Diana successfully stopped the two pushy girls just inside the house and dropped her bag by the door. "Could you go get her for me? And...be subtle about it." As the blonde spoke the words, she knew it'd be near impossible for them to be subtle at this point, but she could hope.

"Of course, Diana!" The two girls said in unison before they walked quickly toward the back door.

Diana sighed and shook her head as she walked into the kitchen to look out the window and was met with an odd sight. A crowd had gathered around the table under the gazebo and she could see that Akko and Amanda were engaged in an arm wrestling match. It seemed that they were evenly matched as their hands weren't moving at all.

"What in the world?" Diana mumbled just before the door opened, amplifying the noise from outside before a girl came into view and shut door behind her. The girl then looked over and paused when she saw the blonde standing in the kitchen looking at her.

"Oh! Hey, you're Diana right?"

"Yes, and you...are the waitress from the bar?"

"That's me. Jennifer." The waitress held out her hand and Diana reached out and shook it.

"It's nice to see you again." The blonde smiled kindly and then turned to look out the window once more. "So, what is going on out there?"

"Well, Akko beat Amanda at beer pong. And then they started arguing about who was better at what. And then they decided to settle it over an arm wrestling match." Jennifer stated as if there was nothing odd about what was going on. But she caught on to the blonde's confusion and continued. "They've done this a few times at the bar before."

Diana nodded but before she could reply there came a loud cheer from outside. She looked out and saw that Amanda had lost and was now stomping her way over to the door as Akko stood on the table flexing her arms. The blonde sighed again and pinched the bridge of her nose while Jennifer chuckled beside her.

"Your girlfriend is a little firecracker, isn't she."

"Yes, she certainly is...something."

"Oi! Cavendish!" Amanda shouted as she practically busted through the back door. "You made it!"

"Hello, Amanda." The blonde rolled her eyes at the loud redhead. "If you could keep it down I'd appreciate it. I don't want Akko to know I'm here yet."

"Oooh. Why?"

"Just...follow me and I'll explain." Diana moved into the next room where she couldn't be seen through any windows and Amanda followed close behind. She quickly explained her plan and with each word, the redhead eyebrows raised more and more.

"So you're really gonna go through with it huh?" Amanda asked with a grin after the blonde finished talking. "What made you change your mind?"

"Someone convinced me that I should let loose once in a while." Diana smiled at the memory of the conversation she had with Anna only hours earlier.

"Well remind me to send that person a gift sometime to thank them for that." Amanda chuckled at yet another eye roll from the blonde. "Nice suit by the way. What is it with you and suits? Akko's brain isn't going to be able to function for days already after what's about to happen, add the suit and she just might die from the gayness of it all."

"Just...get Akko in here and put this song on. I'll take care of the rest." Diana shoved her phone into Amanda's chest.

"Damn, you've changed." The redhead laughed at the blonde's newfound confidence as she turned the phone on to look at the song and then whistled. "Ariana Grande?" She asked with her eyebrows raised.

"What, I'm not allowed to like popular music?"

"Hey, I didn't say that. It's just...this song...you know what? It's great. Great song." Amanda nodded and walked away to find Hannah and Barbara. "Akko is gonna die." She mumbled to herself as she searched.

After Amanda found the two girls and filled them in on what was about to happen, and after a fair amount of giddy squealing, the plan was in motion. Hannah and Barbara nonchalantly made their way outside and successfully pulled a reluctant Akko away from a riveting game of beer pong.

"I think it's about time for you to receive one of your birthday presents, Akko." Barbara said as she linked an arm with the brunette.

"But, Diana's not here yet. I wanted to wait for her to open any presents." Akko started to argue.

"Oh, don't worry. I think you're going to see her veeeery soon." Hannah linked her arm with the brunette's other arm and began to lead her inside.

"Oh, really? She's almost here?" Akko's eyes lit up instantly and she was no longer struggling to get out of the girl's grasp.

"Mmmhmm." Hannah and Barbara replied together and grinned mischievously, which Akko failed to notice.

After they made it inside to the main living area, curious girls were filing in behind them. When they stopped in the middle of the room, Akko looked around in confusion. That is, until she saw it. A lone chair sat there in front of her and she had no doubt what it was there for. Her eyes widened greatly and she began to back up, only to be stopped by Hannah and Barbara, and a third person in back of her. The brunette spun around quickly and saw that it was Amanda, who donned an evil grin.

"Going somewhere?" The redhead asked slyly.

"W-what's..."

"Relax, Akko. Have a seat." Amanda nodded her head, urging Hannah and Barbara to do their job and 'help' the brunette into the chair.

Luckily for the two girls, Akko didn't put up much of a fight. Whether it was complete shock, or knowing that there were too many girls to fight off, she sat down and awaited her fate. 'Diana's going to kill me' she thought as the anxiousness swelled up inside of her. 'How could they do this to me?' Amanda, Hannah and Barbara stood in front of her as the music started and she recognized the song instantly. Her head turned back and forth quickly, noticing that everyone was just standing there, no one was moving. That is, until Amanda stepped to the side and revealed the person who was going to be giving Akko her first lap dance. Diana stood there with a smirk on her beautiful face, wearing an immaculate suit. 'Of course she'd be wearing a suit! Just kill me now!' She screamed internally.

The blonde began slowly walking toward the terribly flustered brunette, loosening her tie as she went. And to prematurely pound the nail into Akko's coffin, she slowly, painfully slowly, took off her suit jacket and handed it to Barbara, all while never breaking eye contact with the brunette. Akko had been so flustered that she hadn't even registered that the first verse to the song was almost over. But when she began to pay attention to the words while Diana was walking seductively toward her, she wished she hadn't, because now she was blushing furiously and nothing had even happened yet.

All that you got, skin to skin, oh my God

Don't you stop, boy

The blonde finally reached Akko and winked before straddling the brunette's thighs and sitting on her lap as the chorus started. Akko's breath hitched as her girlfriend started to grind on her.

Somethin' 'bout you makes me feel like a dangerous woman

Somethin' 'bout, somethin' 'bout, somethin' 'bout you

Makes me wanna do things that I shouldn't

Somethin' 'bout, somethin' 'bout, somthin' 'bout

The brunette swallowed nervously as she stared at Diana who was looking back down at her, a smirk still plastered on her face. Without thinking, Akko's hands made their way to Diana's hips but were instantly smacked away. The blonde leaned down and whispered into Akko's ear, lips brushing the shell as she spoke.

"No touching."

Akko shivered violently before Diana stood up and began to walk around the chair as her fingertips traced up the brunette's arm and across her shoulders.

I wanna savor, save it for later

The taste of flavor, 'cause I'm a taker

'Cause I'm a giver, it's only nature

I live for danger

After Diana made her way around the chair, she again sat on Akko's lap and put her arms around the brunette's neck and locking eyes with her as she began to grind again. But to the blonde's surprise, Akko wasn't blushing anymore. She stared up at Diana with a hunger that the blonde had never seen in her eyes before.

Somethin' 'bout you makes me feel like a dangerous woman

Somethin' 'bout, somethin' 'bout, somethin' 'bout you

Makes me wanna do things that I shouldn't

Somethin' 'bout, somethin' 'bout, somthin' 'bout

The blonde hadn't even noticed that she stopped moving. She stared back down at Akko with the same intensity, noticing that the brunette's gaze flitted down to her lips for a split second.

All girls wanna be like that

Bad girls underneath like that

You know how I'm feeling inside

"Fuck it." Diana suddenly said as she stood up in a flash, grabbing Akko's hand in the process and pulling her up as well.

"Did you just say..." The brunette trailed off in shock as she was now being dragged through a crowd of bewildered party goers.

The pair quickly climbed the stairs and out of view as the song finally ended and the room fell silent.

"Well..." Amanda started and stopped as no words came to her at the moment.

"Yeah." Hannah added unhelpfully.

"I'm sorry, but, did Diana just say 'fuck it'?" Barbara asked one of the many questions that were on everyone's minds at the moment.

"Oh good. You heard it too. I thought I was losing it from all the gay sexual tension." The redhead breathed a sigh of relief.

"We should maybe, like, turn the music up really, really loud. Before..." Hannah pointed upward in the direction of Akko's room which was met by a chorus of agreements from the girls around the room.

"On it." Amanda connected her phone and turned on her party playlist. Music blared from the sound system making several people cover their ears. "IS THIS LOUD ENOUGH?" She yelled as loud as she could over the music.

"GOD I HOPE SO!" Hannah yelled back.

Diana shut Akko's door behind them after they entered the room and roughly pushed the brunette up against it. She leaned in and took Akko's lips in a desperate kiss, pinning the brunette's body against the door with her own and placing a knee in between Akko's thighs. Diana pulled away after a long moment and breathed heavily from lack of oxygen and the adrenaline coursing through her body.

"What have you done to me, Akko?" She whispered as slowly pressed her thigh against Akko's core, eliciting a soft moan from the brunette. "I can't even make it a week. I'm addicted to you." The blonde whispered again before placing kisses down Akko's neck and grinding once more into her girlfriend who let out a louder moan this time and began to grind her own hips. "I want you."

Akko suddenly twisted the blonde around and pushed her against the door before crashing her lips into the blonde's for another passionate kiss. She began to unbutton Diana's white shirt with shaking hands, and after fumbling for longer than she could handle, she pulled the shirt open by force, causing buttons to clatter to the floor. Both girls froze mid kiss before Akko pulled away, wide eyed and horrified at her actions. Diana looked down at her now buttonless dress shirt in surprise.

"I am so sorry. I didn't mean...well I obviously meant to but...um..." Akko trailed off and walked backward as the blonde walked toward her with an unreadable expression.

The brunette ran out of room and was forced to stop at the edge of the desk, letting Diana close the distance quickly. The blonde immediately began unbuttoning the frustratingly short shorts Akko was wearing and pulled them down with ease along with her underwear. The brunette shivered from the sudden cold hitting her naked lower half before Diana bent down and picked her up, eliciting a squeak from Akko, and causing the brunette to wrap her arms and legs around the blonde by reflex. Diana set Akko down on the desk and their lips crashed together once more as the blonde's hand moved down and found it's destination between the brunette's thighs. Akko moaned into their kiss before pulling away and arching her back, pushing herself into Diana's touch. The blonde began trailing kisses down her girlfriend's neck and bit down at the base making Akko cry out in pleasure as she was pushed over the edge into pure ecstasy. She clung onto Diana's neck as she came down from the high until she went limp and leaned her forehead tiredly on the blonde's shoulder, breathing heavily.

"Holy shit." Akko whispered, making her girlfriend chuckle. The brunette then pushed Diana's shirt off her shoulders revealing her favorite light blue bra and began kissing and nibbling at the newly exposed skin. The blonde bit her lip and closed her eyes as she let out quiet moans. "It's my turn now, Diana." Akko whispered into Diana's ear before she began to unbutton the blonde's pants and then slowly pushed them down, but before Diana could step out of them, she was pushed onto her back into the soft mattress on the bed. Akko immediately knelt before her and pulled her pants and underwear the rest of the way off in a flash.

"Akko, what..." The blonde trailed off and her eyes glazed over as she watched Akko begin trailing kisses up her leg until she became dangerously close to Diana's center. The blonde tensed up and held in her breath in anticipation before her girlfriend retreated and began doing to same with the other leg. Diana leaned her head back and let out a frustrated whine, making Akko smile into the blonde's skin as she continued her trail of kisses upward.

"So impatient." Akko said in amusement, causing Diana to sit up on her elbows and glare at her.

"I'm about to take care of it myself if you don't." The blonde smirked as the brunette's jaw dropped.

Akko practically jumped upward and began kissing Diana, her body half way on top of the blonde's. She slid her hand down between them and began to give Diana exactly what she wanted as the blonde began grinding her hips into Akko's hand. Soon they were both moving their bodies in sync and before long, Diana broke away from the kiss, closing her eyes tightly and let out a scream as her body tensed up and shook beneath Akko from the waves of pleasure coursing through her. When she finally relaxed, they both laid in silence as they caught their breaths. The brunette laid her head on her girlfriend's chest, listening as the blonde's heart rate slowly decreased. Diana mindlessly ran her fingers through the brunette locks of her girlfriend.

"Akko." Diana quietly called out.

"Hmm?" Akko lazily replied as she looked up.

Diana shifted her body onto her side until they were now facing each other fully. The blonde cupped Akko's cheek and pulled her in for another soft kiss.

"I love you."

"I love you, too, Diana." Akko whispered back as gazed into her girlfriend's beautiful azure eyes.

They stayed like that for what seemed like an eternity before Akko's eyebrows furrowed. Diana noticed the sudden change in expression and looked back in concern.

"What's wrong?"

"Oh just...um...hey Diana?" The brunette asked nervously.

"Yes?" The blonde replied with an arched brow.

"What do you think about...sex...toys?" Akko's face was overtaken with a deep shade of red but she forced herself to keep eye contact with her girlfriend.

"I'm...not exactly sure what you're asking me."

"Like, what would you say if I...maybe...bought one?"

"...We could just use mine."

"EH?! You...you have..."

"Yes."

"B-but...I can't believe you have one of those!"

"I think you're overreacting just a bit here, Akko."
