-Zapphirra/Cecelia-

I smiled at Mia and Tami as the ride started to spin faster and faster until I could barely see straight. Then we all screamed as loud as we could and wound up laughing. When the ride quit we made our way off of it and Tami stumbled and fell making Mia and I laugh at her.

"Stop laughing and help me up."

She said with a mock frown as she held up her hands. Mia and I each took one and helped Tami to her feet.

"Where to next?"

I asked and they smiled at me before pushing me towards a picture booth. Tami put in a dollar and we all got ready. The first picture was taken and we were all smiling like normal people, then we got silly for the rest of the pics. Mia grabbed the strips from the deposit slip and we burst out laughing as we looked at them.

"Oh my God, look at your face!"

Mia said pointing to Tami's face. She had scrunched it up to look like an old wrinkly mountain lady. We all laughed as we made our way back over to where we'd left the boys, but they weren't there so we just walked around.

"So Cece, what's up with the six major hotties?"

Mia asked and I blushed.

"They're just friends from out of town."

I said, technically I wasn't lying. They were from out of town, way out of town, but still.

"Oh, where?"

Tami asked and I froze.

"I saw you and Mia looking at Kenny and Kou, you interested?"

I asked changing the subject and laughed when they both blushed.

"I can talk to them if you want."

I said and they both begged me to help them.

"Haha, alright."

I said and after staring at each other for a few seconds we burst out laughing again. Man I'd missed hanging with them like this.

"We should probably find Naka. There's no telling what he's talking to the boys about."

Mia said and I nodded.

"Probably how much he's in love with Cece, I swear that boy just can't take a hint."

Tami said and I blushed. I knew Naka liked me, but I just didn't see him that way.

We walked around a bit more until I spotted Raiden's purple hair and pointed him and the others out to Mia and Tami. We waved over to them and Naka jumped up from his seat and ran towards me.

"Zee!"

He yelled as he wrapped his arms around me and spun me around in a hug. My eyes widened as I realized what he called me. Naka noticed I'd tensed in his arms and set me down.

"Zee? Are you alright?"

He asked and I stared at him with wide eyes before glaring at him.

"What? What did I-Ow!"

He yelled when Mia smacked the back of his head.

"You dolt! You remember she told us never to call her that!"

She snapped at him and he looked from her to me apologetically.

"Oh snap, I'm sorry Ze-I mean Cece."

He said and I sighed at him and I could feel the curious looks I was getting from Hikaru and the others.

"Forget it, they had to find out eventually."

I said the last part more to myself than to anyone, but I'm sure Hikaru and the others picked it up with their hearing.

"Hika, guys, my real name isn't Cecelia."

I said and Hikaru looked at me confused.

"What do you mean Cece?"

He asked and I rubbed the back of my head awkardly.

"Cecelia is my middle name."

I said and they looked at me, waiting for me to continue.

"My full name is Zapphirra Cecelia Teez, but after something that happened when I was younger I stopped going by my first name. Naka and the girls know it because we had a sub one day in high school who said my first name instead of my preferred name. That's why he called me Zee."

I explained and they all nodded.

"So, are we allowed to call you Zapphirra?"

Daiki asked and I shook my head.

"No."

I said simply and noticed he flinched at the tone in my voice.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to sound harsh."

I said and he just nodded.

"You can keep calling me what you have been or you can call me Zee, but none of you are allowed to call me by my first name, got it?"

I asked seriously and they all nodded.

"Well, that wasn't awkward at all."

I said, my voice dripping with sarcasm as I glared at Naka.

"I'm really sorry."

He said, but I just sighed.

"Whatever. You guys still wanna explore the amusement park?"

I asked talking to Hikaru and the others and I saw Hikaru smile at the prospect.

"Then let's go. I have a feeling like you guys are going to like the Zipper."

I said with a smile as I grabbed Hikaru and Raiden's hands and pulled them after me towards my favorite ride with everyone else following. We got in line and Hikaru starting bouncing up and down and I dropped his hand. I smiled when it was finally my turn in line and handed the girl money for two and pulled Raiden with me into the compartment on the ride. They shut the door after us and bolted it.

"What kind of ride is this exactly?"

He asked warily and I turned to look at him.

"You're not afraid of heights right?"

I asked and when he shook his head I smiled at him.

"Then this is going to be fun."

I said and he just stared at me confused until the ride started and we shot up into the air and the compartment we were in flipped over.

"Holy shit."

I heard Raiden curse as his hands grabbed the safety rail and burst out laughing. I'd never heard him curse before.


-Raiden-

I hadn't expected the compartment Cecelia-I mean Zapphirra and I were in to flip so I grabbed the satety rail and cursed. I blushed when I heard Zapphirra laugh at me, then looked at her like she was insane when she screamed out with a huge smile on her face.

"You actually enjoy this?"

I asked in disbelief and she turned to look at me with a smile on her face.

"Yeah, this is my favorite ride."

She said and I blinked in surprise at her.

"Ce-I mean Za-"

"Rai, just call me whatever you think will be easiest on you."

She said and I looked at her, surprised at how serious she was being. I nodded before the compartment flipped again. My grip slipped on the rail and I slid in the seat and my side banged against the side quite painfully. I heard her squeal in surprise before I felt her body collide with mine. I instinctively wrapped my arms around her waist and looked down at her to see her blushing.

"Raiden thaaah!"

She suddenly screamed when the compartment fipped again and the door came open. She slipped out of my arms and fell out the open door.

"Raiden! Help!"

She yelled and I saw her holding onto the rim of the compartment, but her fingers were slipping. I moved to grab her arm, but she fell. I cursed before jumping out of the compartment and heading after her.

"Raiden!"

She yelled as she fell towards the ground. I caught up to her and wrapped my arms around her waist, pulling her against me, before wrapping us both in my levitation magic, but we were already too close to the ground to stop completely and we slammed into the ground. I moved so I took the majority of the impact. When we stopped sliding along the pavement I looked down at Cece in my arms to see her eyes were closed and she wasn't moving.

"Cece."

I called her name, but got no response. I could hear people talking around us, but ignored them.

"Cecelia."

I tried, but again I got no response.

"Zapphirra."

I tried, and this time she opened her eyes and looked up at me.

"Thank God."

I said with a sigh of relief and she looked up at me.

"You caled me Zapphirra."

She said with a frown and I froze.

"I didn't mean to, I was just-"

I started to explain, but she cut me off.

"It sounded nice."

She said before her eyes fluttered closed again. I started to panic until I realized she had just fallen asleep.

"Raiden!"

I looked up at the sound of my name to see Hikaru and the others running towards us.

"Oh my God, are you two okay? How the hell did you two not get hurt from a fall like that?"

Zapphirra's friend Mia asked, but I ignored her and carefully got to my feet.

"Maybe we should take her home."

Kenta said and I nodded in agreement before picking Zapphirra up bridal style and starting to head towards her house. I heard Daiki and the others say goodbye to Mia, Tami, and Naka before they followed me. Once we were out of sight of the humans I wrapped my teleportation magic around all of us and got us home. Hikaru pushed open the door and I walked in first and carried Zapphirra to her room. I laid her down on her bed before stepping back.

'This is the second time I've been in her room like this.'

I thought with a frown. I moved towards the door and winced as I felt the pain in my shoulder from when we hit the pavement, but at least Zapphirra hadn't gotten hurt.

I walked back downstairs and everyone looked at me and asked what happened. I explained everything except for what Zapphirra had said once I'd called her her real name. For some reason I felt they didn't need to know, that and I was a little curious as to why she was okay with me calling her that when she'd made it clear earlier that no one else was allowed to. That human miko certainly was a mystery.


A/N: Short as fuck, I know, but I updated. And the guys learned her full name. I know it seems she's always getting saved or something, but it seemed good when I thought of it so I typed it and posted. sorry if you don' t like it. Please review anyway.
