ikujinashii "Uhm..." Kento said, staring at the contents of the box that Fuma had reluctantly given to him. Marius, Sou and Shori had told him that Fuma was in the jimusho kitchen making their presents, and being the overexcited person that he was he hurried to go the first chance he got.
"I told you I don't want to give it yet..." Fuma muttered, his hand on the back of his nape as he looked
"It's..." Kento started, poking at the charred lumps of dough. "...well, it's unique. I've never received paper weights before!"
"Give me that," Fuma gruffly said, making a move to seize the box from Kento's hands. Kento raised it high up so all Fuma could do was grab at thin air.
"I was just joking. Thank you for the cookies, Fumatan," Kento said softly. Fuma reddened at the intense way Kento was looking at him.
"...it's burned cookies, Nakajima," he said, blushing more. Kento got one and bit on it, wincing a bit before smiling bravely at Fuma.
"It's not that bad," he reassures.
"It's charred through! On a scale of one to incredibly stupid, how much do you care for my feelings?" Fuma said exasperatedly, jostling Kento with his shoulder.
"A lot," Kento answers.
"...Stop doing that."
"Doing what?"
"Making me blush. And enjoying it."
"Not stopping. Do you have some more of those cookies?"
"If you don't shut up I'm mixing you into the dough and putting you in the oven."
"That would be the best cookies ever!"
"...You're gross."
"And yet you like me."
"...shut up."

Subject: Don't ignore me!!!!
Look outside!!!!!!!!!
She looks out of her window in disbelief. There he was in front of her house in a simple shirt and jeans and no form of winter wear on, holding a handful of pebbles that would explain the annoying tapping sounds she was hearing on her window.
She rushes down three minutes later, her father's coat, her little brother's gloves and Inoo-sempai's scarf in her arms. She threw it onto him quickly and, shivering, he accepted.
"Are you crazy? You'll get sick! What are you doing here?!" she shouted at him. Two weeks of ignoring him because of the feelings she was having, and their first conversation sounds like she was his mother. After pulling on the gloves he put his hands on her shoulders, turned her around, and pointed at the sky.
"Look! A meteor shower!"
She looks, and all she remembers were his hands on her shoulders and her heart beating in her chest and the stars in his eyes when she looked at him and the supernova in her heart when his face slowly came nearer and their lips touched and then there were fireworks and that meteor shower fell all around them while they shared their first kiss.

Mikiya sighs and scratches at his head. This babysitting gig is basically a disaster.
Well basically it was a success because the kids weren't crying and everything is calm.
Too calm.
He steals a glance at the other babysitter he was with. Although his pride was too high to admit, but he was scared. Like, pee-in-the-pants-scared kind of scared.
And she was a girl.
But she was no ordinary girl. She was a new recruit into the yakuza group his father was heading, and after being scolded by spacing out because he was thinking of Meisa too much, he was sent here as punishment. She was assigned with him as a "chaperone". He had scoffed but after looking her up (....just as a precaution, and no, he was not a stalker), he finally knew why his father told him that her name was Sado.
His train of thought was broken when the two-year old he has silently assigned himself to started stirring beside him on the playmat. The little boy sat up, blearily looked around, and looked at Mikiya hesitantly smiling over him. His little chin started wobbling, and before Mikiya can do anything the boy started bawling and throwing a tantrum that would make any toddler proud.
"Oh no oh no oh no please don't cry do you want candy are you hungry wait I don't have milk," he sets off in a panic, picking up the child and trying to make it stop crying by rocking it in his arms. The only result he got was the five-year old sleeping next to Sado waking up and crying as well.
Sado wakes up to find Mikiya rocking both children on his arms and singing a hasty mash-up of enka songs that he knew to try to get them to calm down. He looks up when she stands and quails under her angry glare.
"You're doing it wrong," she said darkly while taking the younger child from his arms.
"S-sorry," he said, stumbling over his words. He continues rocking the younger kid in his arms, vainly trying to calm the boy down but to no avail. He watched as Sado gently shushed the kid and picked up a kendama toy lying on the floor. She passed the red ball over the crying child's eyes. Entranced, the child hiccuped and stopped crying as she began playing it skillfully. Even the child in Mikiya's arms stopped crying as all the males in the room stared at her. She was smiling, a soft smile that Mikiya has never seen before.
She looks prettier when she smiles.
Ten minutes of kendama athletics later the two-year old was back to sleep, while the five-year old was playing with the kendama. Sado was watching over the sleeping boy, patting him gently on the side to keep him asleep. Mikiya was staring at her, his legs pulled to his chest, when he felt a soft tap on his shoulder. The five-year old was holding out the kendama to him, pouting and obviously not bery good at it.
"You want Nii-chan to teach you?" he asks. He got an eager nod as his response. Smiling, he accepted the kendama and tried a few tricks.
Bad news is, he wasn't the best kendama player around as well.
A couple of minutes later he was the one pouting and frowning deeply, while the five-year old was laughing and clapping his hands together at his misery.
"Do you want me to teach you?" a vice asked. Mikiya looked up to find Sado crouching down beside him, the two-year old in her arms awake but apparently calm.
He nods with a pout. "It doesn't want to cooperate."
"It's like dealing with people... you have to study them first, and understand that everyone is different," she said. They were all transfixed, and Sado caught Mikiya's gaze and smiled.
He understood. She was different, and she has sides he has yet to know.
Maybe he can ask for her number and mail address later.
kuroi_kaoru13 "I'm hungry!" Marvelous announces for the nth time that day, poking at Navi's head with his finger and obviously bored. And cranky. Hunger and Captain Marvelous was never a good combination.
"Stop doing that!" Navi complains, flying out from Marvelous' reach to go land on Ahim's shoulder, who in turn patted it on the head.
"Luka-san, Hakase-san, and Gai-san aren't back from Christmas shopping yet, so please wait for a bit longer," she explained patiently. Marvelous pouted but said nothing.
"Stop whining," Joe said, coming out from the kitchen and bearing a cake in his hands. Marvelous sits up eagerly, his eyes shining.
"Food!" he announces.
"Yes food. Food for everyone," Joe replied, emphasizing the last word. Marvelous sulks back, sticking his tongue out for good measure. Ahim covers her mouth as she laughed, and Joe smiled before pulling out a smaller cake and handing it over to Marvelous.
"And I made you one for yourself. So the others will have Christmas cake when they get home," Joe said. Ahim stood up, kissing away a spot of whipped cream on Joe's cheek before going to the kitchen.
"I'll prepare tea for everyone," she said, busying herself with her teapots and leaving Marvelous smirking at a blushing Joe.
"Your face is very red you know. More red than these cherries and strawberries," Marvelous commented, spearing strawberries from his cake with a fork.
"Shut up," Joe replied, rubbing at his cheek.
"You two are so sweet you turn me off my food."
"Give that cake over then."
"Not a chance."
"Go confess to Luka or something."
"Nah, Hakase should get his feelings straight. Maybe I'll kiss you instead."
"I'd like to see you try."
"I won't hurt Ahim's feelings."
"You're impossible."
"No, I'm Marvelous."
