"Angel" and "Resolution" – Christmas Prompts
Pairing: Nozoeli
"Eli your mouth is open," Nico elbowed her friend roughly, before giving Eli a punch under the chin. "I'm telling you, your mouth is agape."
"Nico, oh no… what do I do now?" And she couldn't believe the sight in front of her, maybe singing Christmas Carols while wearing angel outfits wasn't a good idea. Because Nozomi with angel wings looked almost like the real thing.
"Tell me how did you get through the two hour singing session again?" Nico snorted, standing on her toes to fix Eli's hat, before slapping her friend on the back. "My god you're almost drooling."
"Well I had Umi to back up the parts that I couldn't sing…" said Eli. The tips of her ears were red, Eli had to squint her eyes shut in order to admit it out loud. Because admitting this to Nico would result in endless teasing.
Right now she was staring at Nozomi's back as they trek through the snow, heading back after a performance. Eli couldn't help but notice the little wings on her back trembling as Nozomi walked, the way Nozomi's body sway with each step she took, her hair fluttering through the chilling winter winds, her tiny braids, her entire being.
Her little friend was about to say something, before Nozomi turned around, clapping her angelic hands together with a little smile on her face. "Should we make our way to the shrine to make our new year resolutions?"
Everyone agreed, because who could reject Nozomi's smile? There was a little reluctance on Nico's part, before she was bribed with parfaits and the merry gang of angels made their way to Nozomi's shrine.
It was hours after they left the shrine that Rin brought up the topic of resolutions again, while cuddling in between Maki and Hanayo. "Say what are your resolutions nya?"
"To stand on the stage together and perform again next year," replied the red-head immediately, ruffling Rin's hair. "M-Me too," Hanayo squeaked.
"Me three!" Honoka slammed her hand on the floor, "We'll definitely perform again next year!"
"And next year I'll have Umi-chan wear the reindeer costume!" Kotori chimed in, brandishing antlers out of nowhere, and putting it on Umi's head.
"As for me, I want to be closer to each one of you!" Nozomi launched herself upon Nico in a hug.
"What about you Eli?" Red eyes were staring through her soul, all attention was on her and the sudden spotlight was making her panic.
"E-Eh, closer to N-Nozomi huh… Yeah I definitely want that…" Eli muttered, before quickly realizing her mistake, " I-I mean I want to be closer to everyone else too!"
"I want to be closer to Elicchi in particular too," Nozomi chuckled, the rare blush gracing her face.
Umi spluttered, dropping her ice cream on the mat. Nico coughed, the frown on her face was intensifying, she could feel her eyebrows twitching, but as the President of Muse and a good friend she needed to speak out.
"I just hope you all realize how gay you are for each other next year," Nico almost screamed, "And I can't believe I'm telling you this again, but your mouth is agape. Shut it and confess!"
