The idea for this chapter came into my head at 3am in the morning, so I apologize if it's a little lame. But I thought the story needed a little fun in it.

girl; n. a woman, especially a young woman

Shun and Alice were together in Alice's room, lying on top of her bed. Alice was playing with Shun's hair, twisting small strands around her fingers. Her hand slid down to his hair tie and loosened it from his ponytail. She continued combing her fingers through his sleek dark hair, but Shun didn't mind. There were some things girlfriends were allowed to do that normal girls couldn't.

"Shun," she murmured to him. "Has anyone ever told you that without your ponytail… you look like a girl?"

"Hmmm? This is the first time I've ever heard of it. Is that something I should be proud of?"

"No… but… do you mind if I do something?" She asked, her mouth upturning into a sly smile.

"Sure, whatever…" He answered.

She pulled a chair over and sat it in front of the window, facing away from her mirror.

"Come on, up you get!" Alice cried, helping Shun up from her bed.

"What's happening?"

"You just sit right here," she smiled, sitting him down into the chair.

She grabbed a brush and began pulling it through his hair, gently combing it through.

"Alice, what are you…?"

"Don't worry, you'll see soon enough!" She giggled and continued brushing.

...

"Okay… and done!" She smiled triumphantly. "You can look now."

Shun stood up and looked in the mirror… and then wish he hadn't.

Alice had performed a complete makeover on him. His hair was now decorated with brightly coloured ribbons, glitter and jewels, adding an extra sparkle to the curls which Alice had also decided on doing.

"Alice, I… I look like…" He couldn't bring himself to say it.

"A girl? I know!" She laughed, hardly able to contain herself. "Now for the finishing touch, you have to put this on!" Alice giggled, holding a silver tiara out towards him.

"That's it. I'm going home." Shun said firmly, yanking ribbons out of his hair as he headed towards the window.

"No wait! I was only kidding! Please stay with me a little longer," she pleaded, suddenly nicer.

Shun considered leaving through the open window, but when Alice pleaded like that he just couldn't resist. He sighed heavily to himself.

"Next time, I'm cutting my hair." He muttered.

There were some things girlfriends were allowed to do that normal girls couldn't.

But like all girls, sometimes they got a little too carried away.

I saw some clips of Shun with his hair out from Episode 28 in a fan video, and I honestly thought it was his mum! Please tell me I wasn't the only one thinking that...

This sounded more like something Julie would do, but I thought it would be cute to picture Alice dressing him up.

Chapter 8 is H for Heaven, so stay tuned!
