"-anding just outside the bathroom door." he chuckled looking at his still wet, startled partner.

Tsubaki looked into his eyes shyly. "You, you really think my voice sounds pretty?" she asked timidly.

He leaned in closer to her, pressing her up against the wall, leaving no chance for Tsubaki to evade him. "Yes, yes I do." His smile grew more deviant as his eyes narrowed.

"Black Star..." Tsubaki knew what her meister was planning. She thought to herself, "I know. I know what he wants to do. I mean, I am only wearing a towel and he has me pressed up a wall, this towel being the only thing seperating me from him. I guess I don't have a choice." She slowly started to unravel the towel that she had wrapped around her, the only barrier between her and her well, predicament. This of course, beakoned for Black Star's attention.

"Wo wo wo!" Black Star quickly turned around, covering his eyes. "Tsubaki! What in world are you doing!" he shrilled, still with his eyes covered and turned away from Tsubaki, his cheeks red.

Tsubaki did not expect his reaction. "Wh-what? Hah!" Noticing that her towel was just barely covering her, she quickly snatched it and frantically held it in front of her, the towel being long enough that no inappropriate part of her body was showing. The now reddened faced weapon fell silent as she looked down at the carpeted floor.

The spiky blue haired meister turned around to face her, a "sorry" look on his face. "Tsubaki...I hope you didn't think that I was trying to...you know...scare you." He walked towards the door that lead out into the hallway before he turned around to look at Tsubaki. "I'm sorry." He left without saying a single word more, shutting the sliding door behind him.

After Black Star shut the door, Tsubaki fell to her knees. "I can't believe that he didn't try anything. I really thought...he looked like...but he..." Tsubaki shook the thought from her head, she couldn't bear to think about it for the time being. "Alright, I need to get dressed." She walked over to her dresser, feeling the carpet between her toes with each new step she took. "Hmmmm...I wonder what I should pick out to wear today?" she took out some frilly shirts, a couple pair of pants, and a few short shorts and skirts. Tsubaki swapped combination with combination, trying to find the perfect outfit to wear for the day.

She noticed something sitting on top of her jewelry box that rested on the dresser. "What's this?" It was a sticky note that had the unmistakable handwriting of her egotistical partner. It was sloppy and looked like that it had been rushed. She read the note out loud, "Tsubaki, check the inside of your side of the closet." She stuck the note onto the post of her lamp. Then she turned towards her closet, wondering what Black Star had put in it. She walked over to it and opened it, gasping at what she saw. "No way..."

Inside the closet, on the hook, was the cutest top she had ever seen. It wasn't low cut, but it did have a slight v shape to it. I was a pale pink and the sleeves came down to the elbows, while the length of the shirt appeared to be just right for Tsubaki's height. On another hook, she saw a pair of capries, beige in color and pockets along the sides. She noticed a pair of dressy type shoes laying on the floor.

"Where did this all come from? I surely didn't buy these clothes." Tsubaki picked up the shirt when something rubbed up against her. "Hmmm..." Another sticky note was attached to the collar of the shirt. The note read, "For you. Wear it today when we go out." Tsubaki stood, staring at the note.

Thoughts began to roll through her head. "He planned all of this? Even down to the precise point that he knew I would read this. I guess he truly is brighter than I had originally thought. "Well, I wouldn't want to disappoint him after he went through the effort to get this for me."

Tsubaki removed her towel, of course, now fully exposed. The only thing Black Star didn't buy for her were bras and underwear, which she for one, was glad he didn't do. She picked up her bra and latched it into place. The next thing she put on was her underwear. Then she picked up the shirt and pulled it down over herself, a little bit uncomfortably, but it fit perfectly, in tune with her curves. Next, she took the capries and pulled them up her legs, one at a time. Finally, she slipped on her socks and fastened her shoes.

"Another one?" But yet another sticky note made its presence known on the sole of the right shoe. This note read, "Hey, keep your hair down." Tsubaki took a second look at the note.

"That's right!" she walked again towards the dresser, and put back the clothes that she had gotten out before seeing Black Star's note. When she put all the clothes back, she reached for her hair brush.

"1...34...65...83...100." Tsubaki brushed her hair 100 times on each side. "I think that is sufficient." She sat the brush down on her nightstand. "Oh, I still need to make the bed." As Tsubaki was shifting the sheets to their proper places, she smelled a familiar stench. "Black Star...really?" Tsubaki knew that from that smell Black Star had been sleeping in her bed. It was weird, really. Tsubaki had been with Black Star for a long while now. She knew of what his sweat smelled. Though, to her, his smell kind of soothed her, in a way. She always felt relaxed knowing every day she would wake up and her meister would be there, always so jaunty, making her feel amused and looking forward to what the rest of the day would bring.

"I can't wash them now, Black Star is waiting for me." While making the bed, she placed the pillows at the head of the bed and then the sheets on top of that, followed by the comforter. When she had accomplished that, she put the stuffed animals in their places. Then she walked to the door and turned off the light, closing the sliding door behind her as she walked out into the hallway.

"Yo, Tsubaki!" he said as he greeted Tsubaki with the usual "Good Morning" gesture. Black Star was sitting on the sofa with both of his arms behind the backing of it. He was looking at Tsubaki with intrigue. "How do you like it, Tsubaki?" he asked hopeful for a positive reply. "Your clothes, I mean." he said to make sure Tsubaki didn't get confused.

"Yes, they are lovely, thank you." she began to fidget with the buttons on the pockets on her capries. "But, how did you know my measurements?"

Black Star looked up to her blushing. "W-well" he started "it's just that I have been living with you for how many years now? I think I would know things such as your bust by now."

Tsubaki could not help but blush at his statement. "Oh...I guess you would. Heheh" she paused for a bit before she realized. "Wait just a min-"

"HYA HAAAAAAAA-HAAAAAAAAAAA-HAAAAAAAAA-HAAAAAAAAA!" Black Star could contain himself no longer, letting himself expload with laughter.

Tsubaki watched as he rolled onto the floor, bursting with laughter. His laugh magically sucked her in and she just had to join in on the laughter."Heehee~"

"HYA HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" he yelled again, "There you go Tsubaki! Laugh with me!"

Tsubaki and Black Star continued to laugh until their stomachs hurt to much for them to continue.

As their laughing had died down, they heard a knock on the door.
