Valentine's Day

At the Hyoudou Residence, there was a tense atmosphere in the living room; none of the boys were paying attention to the action movie that was playing on the T.V., seeing how their minds were on tomorrow's date. An important day for every male in Japan, seeing how it was Valentine's Day, a day filled with cute girls giving away chocolates to their lover, crush, or simply their friends. In the past, most of them never thought much about Valentine's Day, until Issei appeared in their lives, changing their perspective on the 'love' holiday.

Sitting beside Ivan, Aster noticed the missing presence of Xenos and asked, "Where's Xenos-kun?"

"Down in the basement training, most likely still moping, seeing how Issei banned anyone from entering the upstair-floor's kitchen. And when he tried to disobey her order, he got beat up and sent away," chuckled Ivan as he retold the story.

"You know, for once I really can't blame Xenos for trying. Seeing how tomorrow is Valentine's Day, making me curious at just what our dear Issei-chan is up to, hmm," remarked Akihiko, a glint of curiosity flashed through his violet eyes.

"Isn't it obvious? She's making Valentine chocolates for me." Swaggering into the room was none other than Kuroko, jumping over the couch to take a seat next to a glaring Richard.

"Why do you think she is exclusively making Valentine chocolates just for you?" Despite the smile on Akihiko's face, his aura immediately turned hostile.

At this question, Kuroko sent a smirk in Akihiko's direction and said, "'Cause my seduction skills are far more superior than any of you amateurs. Which leaves me to say, Issei's moans are quite erotic~!" He winked, enraging all those present in the room.

"Who dared to allow you to do such lewd things to my sweet Ise?" Richard's aura was beginning to burn with rage, yet Kuroko paid not an ounce of interest to it.

"Oh, says the guy who at night can't keep his hands to himself. You tend to leave marks in very noticeable places. Never knew that the males in the Gremory family were so possessive." Richard was aware of what Kuroko was hinting at, yet some of the more innocent males, such as Aster and Ivan, were confused. Though Kabu and Akihiko seemed to get what Kuroko was talking about.

"That's different, seeing how I'm Issei's legal husband," Richard stated with confidence, not denying the marks that he had left on Issei's body nor his possessiveness.

"Hmm, that's not what Vali said. In my opinion, Vali is better suited for that role," stated Kuroko, picking up the remote, flipping through the stations as Richard's aura turned even darker at the mention of his rival stealing his position! Seeing that a big argument was about to break out between Akihiko, Richard, and his older-brother, Kabu turned on the game and began ignoring everyone else in the room, though his mind kept running back to Issei and who she was making Valentine chocolates for.

Just like Kabu predicted, an argument did break out between the three, leaving Ivan and Aster on the sidelines, having a friendly conversation with each other. It was then that Ivan remembered something very important about tomorrow. "Oh, I just remembered; tomorrow is-"


The next day, all the members of the Occult Research Club were in the room, when Issei walked in, carrying a large bag. A bag which every male in the room had their eyes glued to. Reaching into the bag, everyone watched as she pulled out a yellowed heart-shaped box, wrapped in red ribbon with a bow on top, which was handed over to a surprised Aster. This continued with Issei pulling out a variety of different colored heart-shaped boxes and handing them to different members of the Occult Research Club. Even Yumi received one, which honestly surprised the blonde, but nevertheless, expressed her thanks by giving Issei some of the chocolates which she collected from all her devoted male fans.

When Issei saw the overly large pile of chocolates that the blonde had gathered throughout the day, sitting in a corner in the clubroom, she couldn't help but feel a little jealous. Though such thoughts left her head when she was suddenly wrapped in an embrace by Akihiko, who expressed his thank for the Valentine chocolates, though not before whispering into her ear. "Though I appreciate Ise-chan's handmade chocolates, Ise-chan covered in chocolate would've been an even better gift. 'Cause then I would have to lick every inch of you that is covered in chocolate," he said in a deep throaty voice, causing Issei to shiver and blush from the imagery alone.

"Wait. Issei-chan, how come Xenos's didn't receive anything?" asked Ivan, after noticing his best friend's depressing aura and how he was missing a box of chocolates.

"Oh, that's because..." Removing herself from Akihiko's embrace, Issei walked over to Xenos, who had a dark cloud hovering above his head, expressing his despair of not receiving any homemade chocolates from Issei.

"That's because, in order for Xenos-kun to see my gift, he will first have to go out on a date with me~!" smiled Issei, shocking all those in the room, mainly Xenos... and Richard, who was planning on stealing Issei away, so he could have a date with her instead.

"Yeah, seeing how today is Xenos's birthday and thus he must have some birthday presents; here is the first one." Leaning forward, Issei pressed her lips up against Xenos's cheeks, which turned a nice bright shade of pink. Pulling away, Issei beamed a smile at his face and exclaimed, "Happy Birthday, Xenos-kun!" The swordsman never experienced such happiness than what he was currently experiencing, unable to stop himself from kissing Issei's soft lips, which did, once again, shocking those in the room.

In the background, a moping Richard couldn't help but mutter, "I can't wait for when it's my birthday. I want to be spoiled by Ise~!" He pouted like a spoiled child.


Bonus:

That morning, when Issei was placing all the chocolates in their own individual boxes, she felt a presence walk up from behind her. "If I remember correctly, today is the day where girls give away chocolates for their male mates." Issei heard the voice of Vali speak, knowing that it was him the moment he entered her kitchen.

"Yeah, something like that. Why are you here, Vali? Don't tell me you came all this way for some chocolate?" questioned Issei. The only answer she received was Vali holding out his hand, answering her questions.

"So you are, well then, here you go. I heard from Kuroko that you like peppermint white chocolate so I made them for you." Issei watched when Vali opened the box and stared at the perfectly round shapes of chocolate with a red drizzle and other decorations. Taking a bite out of one of the chocolates, Vali smiled at the taste, which made Issei happy, but even she was taken by surprise when Vali reached over and placed a kiss on her cheek.

"What a good mate." He sounded so proud, and with that smile on his face, Issei found herself blushing, unable to correct him like usual.
