Also Nozomi x Eri, Rin X Hanayo, Umi X Kotori, maybe even Tsubassa X Honoka.
As Muse entered the store they realized that absolutely no one was there.
" Must be because it's new" Eri suggested.
"That's understandable." Umi replied.
"Hello ladies! Welcome, you..." The store clerk paused to quickly count. "You nine are our first customer...s! In fact because you are the first few customers I'll get you started and it will be for free!" He announced.
"Oh. Thank you, sir!" Honoka exclaimed.
Muse started to follow the clerk, but Nico and Maki dragged behind.
"You two look hesitant." An employee had said to Nico and Maki. "You two also look like you'd go sky diving, and not admit that you had no clue what you were doing."
Before they could cut him off he continued. "Here follow me. There are two sections in this building. One for who ever shows up, which is where your friends are going, and one for reservations, which is were we are going. You two can figure out how to skate in here. Sorry, I'd help you, but I think you'd rather not have me watching."
Both girls were silent, but thought at the same time 'He hit the nail on the head like ten times!'
"Uh... Thank you.. Sir." Nico managed.
"No prob."
Once everyone was geared up they started to skate, but no one had noticed Nico and Maki not being there yet.
" So Maki-chan can't skate?" Nico taunted.
"Of course I can skate!" Maki replied twirling a lock of red hair.
...
Both of them were still sitting.
"Obviously you can't skate Nico-chan."
"Of course I can, I was just waiting for you to get up first."
"How about we get up at the same time?" Maki suggested.
"Ok, on 3" Nico replied.
"One"
"Two"
Three!" Both girls said while standing up.
Upon standing Nico fell forwards onto Maki's front getting a "Kya!" From both herself and the composer.
When they fell down Nico managed to not squish the first year... but she did manage to have their faces... face to face with mere centimeters apart.
They just stared into each other's eyes for what seemed to be an eternity.
Amethyst orbs just longingly staring into violet, and violet orbs staring longingly into amethyst. Maki pulled the third year's head down until it was in the composer's neck comfortably.
And Nico happily complied.
The two girls just laid in each other's arms. Nico's head remained in the crook of Maki's neck, and they started to slowly fall asleep.
Or would have if they hadn't remembered where they were. Nico was the first to move, granted she was on top.
The shorter of the two started to get off the taller and Maki started to say "N-Nico..."
A blush was quickly dominating the red head's face. "Um... Tonight w-would you l-like t-t-to ummm... Spendthenight!?"
Despite how horribly stuttered, fast and mumbled Nico understood perfectly. After all she understood the first year better than anyone.
The twin-tailed girl still was starting to have her face color match the composer's hair.
"I-I mean... If you want S-Super Idol Nico to stay at y-your house o-overnight so much, then I-I guess there's no c-choice."
Badum. Badum. Badum.
Both girl's heart beat were perfectly aligned with each other.
Badum. Badum. Badum.
"I guess we should s-skate." Nico finally said breaking the silence.
"S-Sure."
Nico managed to get up without falling this time, and Maki got up just as easily as last time, but they were still just standing.
'How can she do everything so fast and easily! She's never skated before, but she's acting like a pro!' Nico thought in amazement, before saying " What's the matter Maki? Can't skate?" The older teased.
The only response was a sigh.
Meanwhile...
"Hey Nozomi. Why did you say your cards were telling us to do something new?"
"Oh Eli-chi. Shh." Nozomi put a finger to her lips.
"I'll tell you, but don't tell anyone else. Ok, so I had this day planned out basically. I was going to get us all to go to the roller skating ring for our day off, because the cards, as you saw, were promising something interesting to happen between two members. I also set up the reserved room and everything. The manager owed me a few favors so all of this came off scotch free. Now if you'd follow me to the reserved area, because it seems that Nico and Maki are missing, and we should check on them."
"Uh... Ok?" Eri managed.
The two third years made their way to the reserved area. When they got there, they saw Nico fall onto Maki.
A little later Maki was skating around effortlessly, and Nico fell for the umpteenth time in the past few minutes.
"Hey, Eli-chi don't you find it adorable how every time Nico falls Maki is right by her side immediately helping her up." Nozomi whispered.
"Yeah, but we shouldn't be spying on them." Eri replied.
"Oh why not?" Nozomi questioned with a pout evident on her face.
"It's their life, and they deserve respect to their... Private affairs." Eri started to struggle.
For some reason that pout was an automatic win for Nozomi every time. As if that wasn't bad enough for Eri, Nozomi knew that it was a win for her every time.
Well, two people can fight. Both girls were still in their skating gear, and were in the dark archway that connect the reserved area to the gear hall.
Eri moved behind Nozomi and hugged the latter from behind, and rested her head on the Milo's shoulder. This was Eri's automatic win.
Both girls felt so right in that space of time. Although they didn't know why they felt so right.
"That's it! I'm sorry Maki, but skating is evil! They hate me. This isn't working!" Nico fell again, and her yells snapped Nozomi and Eri out of... What ever they were in.
"Come on Nico, I'll hold your hand this time." Maki reasoned.
This is the moment Nozomi took to make her presence known.
"Hey! We should probable start heading home now." Nozomi informed the girls.
"Gladly!" Nico replied.
"Hey, uh Maki." Nico started
"I meant what I said earlier. Will you?" Maki said as they were walking home.
"Yeah, but do you want to loan me clothes or stop by my house real quick?" Nico asked.
"Oh. We already passed your house though. You can borrow mine I guess." Maki replied.
You don't know how tempted I was to stop at the part where it says "Maki pulled the third year's head down until"... And just be like MWAHAHA I hope you love cliff hangers, but nah. I didn't. It would of been to short of a chapter. This story is mainly NicoMaki and with a nice side of NozoEri plus a teaspoon of the other shippings I mentioned. Well thanks for reading. I hope you enjoyed the chapter.
