"You know Flash if you always stay alone, you'll just dry up. The only thing that can heal it... Is other people. One day Flash, it would be nice if you could meet someone like this. If you can meet someone who would let you stay by their side, that would be really good."

Flash lied on the bleachers while his eyes were focused on the clear blue sky, watching the clouds go by and having no care on his surroundings. He was still disappointed after what happened during his date with Gaige, if it even counted as a date. As he stared blankly at the sky, he soon noticed someone standing beside him. He turned his head to see Sunset staring at him with her arms crossed.

"Yo, what's up Sunset?" Flash greeted.

"Nothing much, I was just looking for Soul because class is about to start in a few minutes, then I saw you here," Sunset replied, "How bout you?"

"Sunbathing," Flash replied while he smirked, "Hey, what was that about when you said I didn't have any balls?"

"Yeaaaah... Don't remind me of that," Sunset said with half a smile as she rubbed the back of her head and sat on the bleachers next to Flash, "So how was the date?"

"Gaige shot me down."

"Huh? Did you confess to her?" Sunset replied with her brow raised.

"No, I didn't," Flash said as he sat up with a sad expression, "When you asked me how I feel about Gaige, I kind of understand what's going on... But I guess I just missed my chance."

Sunset looked at Flash and became sympathetic of him. She patted his back and tried to cheer him up.

"If she didn't directly reject you, then there's still hope." Sunset said.

"You think so?" Flash said as he slowly let out a smile, "She looked completely serious when she did that."

"I'm sure she just didn't have the mood that day." Sunset guessed.

"Well, I don't really care," Flash replied with a warm smile, "I've been told that things may change, and to treasure it while it's there. That's why, I don't want to mess this up."

"...Are you an idiot?"

A voice came from behind them. The two turned around to see a girl with black nerdy glasses, brown hair that was tied into a messy pony tail, and white grayish skin. She wore a red plaid flannel, dark blue pants and black shoes. She was drinking applejuice while she looked at the side. Flash raised a brow as he looked at her.

"Excuse me, who are you?" Flash asked.

"I should be the one asking you a question; since you have time to think about it, why don't you go and confess to her?" The girl said in a nerdy voice, "You've got to melt the iron while it's hot!"

"Are you drunk or something?" Flash replied.

"HOW CAN YOU GET DRUNK ON APPLEJUICE?!" The girl violently replied as she violently drank the juice.

"What are you doing here Hazel?" Sunset asked the girl.

"Wait, you know this girl?"

"She's my chemistry partner, who happens to always take absences."

"That explains why I haven't seen her in my entire life."

Hazel sat up and went beside Flash. She grinned and looked at Flash, making him extremely uncomfortable. She placed her hand on Flash's back while her other hand made a thumbs down gesture.

"DON'T TAKE 'NO' FOR AN ANSWER!" Hazel exclaimed with a deep voice, startling the two, "GO FOR IT!"

Hazel suddenly jumped and ran as fast as she can. She ran to the doors to the school and disappeared. Sunset and Flash looked on with confused looks and began to question what just happened. The school bell then rang and the two headed inside as well. Sunset bid farewell and departed as Flash headed to the library, hopefully to find Gaige.

Flash wandered the halls while he pondered the many things running in his mind. One of which was the advice he was given, and another was Gaige. He soon reached the library and entered. Inside, he looked around for his love interest as his heart began to thump rapidly. His eyes then caught a glimpse of her, making him smile as he made his way to her.

"If you can meet someone who would let you stay by their side, that would be really good."

Gaige was at a table with a couple of books around her. She had her head and arms on the table and fell asleep. This made Flash's heart warm as he looked at the sleeping girl. Flash slowly approached her and extended his hand to her head. He then began to poke her head impatiently.

"...Flash...Anata wa baka teishi shimasu." Gaige murmured in Japanese as she slowly got up.

Gaige rubbed her eyes and stretched out. The girl looked at her phone for the time and soon noticed Flash gazing at her with a warm smile.

"What's so funny Brad?" Gaige asked.

"Oh, I was thinking of someone who passed away," Flash replied as he rubbed the back of his head, "Like when you study you have to repeat it to remember, or something like that."

"Huh?"

"And in order to face yourself, you have to accept others into your life," Flash continued, "Think about it, what comes to your mind?"

Flash knelt, placed his hands on the table and continued to gaze at Gaige's jade eyes. The girl raised a brow as both of their hearts began to beat rapidly.

Gaige pinched the bridge of her nose and let out a sigh.

"But I already told you-"

"You're not inlove with me anymore right? I get it, I get it," Flash interrupted while he stood up and still wearing a smile, "As long as I can be with you, that's fine."

"Flash..."

Flash began to lean on Gaige's face. His eyes closed and had his lips even closer to Gaige. The girl began to panic and stopped Flash just in time by grabbing his face with her hand.

"WHOA THERE." Gaige exclaimed in irritation.

"Oh sorry," Flash apologized with a grin as he looked at his twitching hands, "Thinking about how much I love you made me a bit light headed."

"What he's saying doesn't match what he's doing..." Gaige thought.

Flash backed off from her and looked away. He remained silent as if he was thinking of something, which made Gaige question the guy infront of her. Flash turned to her once again and put his fist on his other hand.

"Let's go out!" Flash suggested with a smile.

"....I can see that you didn't understand a word I said." Gaige said in irritation.

"But you said that you'd go out with me if I fell in love with you." Flash said with a bit of annoyance.

"When did I say that?!" Gaige replied, "Are you just ignoring what I say?"

"THEN WHAT IS IT THAT YOU WANT?!"

"YOU JUST SAID YOU'D BE FINE AS LONG AS WE COULD BE TOGETHER!"

"GIVE IN GIVE IN GIVE IN! Flash exclaimed.

"LEAVE! SCRAM! GET LOST BAKA!" Gaige bitterly retaliated.

Despite the petty arguments, Gaige began to feel like she was in danger every single day. She began to question if her worries have decreased or increased since this happened.

It was now Friday and the gang were standing near staircase, loitering and discussing about the Halloween party that Pinkie Pie was having this coming Saturday. While the boys discussed, Gaige sat on the stairs checking out her blog with her phone while Flash was beside her... With a big space between the two.

"Man you're gonna be a Warcraft character again?" Zero said in disappointment.

"Hey, atleast it's better than Shakespeare over here!" Warhawk replied as he pointed to Treble.

"FYI, it's Broken Matt Hardy," Treble corrected, "And you keep on saying my costume's gonna be crap... F*CKING DAEMON'S GONNA DRESS UP AS A WATERMELON!"

"HEY!" Daemon retaliated.

While the boys argued on the littlest things, Gaige minded her own business while Flash continued to stare at her. She became uncomfortable at this and decided to entertain Flash.

"Shouldn't you be discussing your costume with the others?" Gaige pointed out.

"Nah, I've already decided on who I'll be for Halloween," Flash replied, "Shouldn't you be doing the same?"

"Me and Treble already decided last night, and this year he's in charge of buying the costumes."

"Who are you going to be?"

"A cat."

Flash continued to stare at Gaige as she continued to use her phone. He then got into a trance and began to fall for Gaige once more. Flash slowly slid next to Gaige. He proceeded put his hand around her and wrapped her in a warm embrace. The girl became startled as her whole body cringed and instantly backed away from Flash. The startled Gaige leaned on the wall with her heart beating fast.

"Baka, if you touch me without permission next time or even come too close to me.. I will bury you to the ground." Gaige warned while she glared at Flash.

Flash let out a hmph and glared at her. He became extremely annoyed of Gaige's new behavior and had enough of it.

"After I said that I loved you, you immediately kept a distance between us," Flash said in a serious manner, "Are you trying to torment me intentionally?!"

"IT'S BECAUSE YOU DO THIS KIND OF THINGS SUDDENLY!"

"SHOULD I ASK PERMISSION FIRST THEN?!"

"NO!"

The guys began to notice the fight and began to watch them. Gaige crossed her arms as her eye twitched. She glared at Flash and let out her anger.

"FLASH! I ALREADY TOLD YOU ALOT OF TIMES!" Gaige exclaimed, "If you cannot keep a proper distance, I cannot be together with you!"

"Damn, your sister's cold dude." Straight said to Treble as he elbowed him.

"How much space do I have to give you?!" Flash asked.

"About 3 meters."

"ARE YOU JOKING?!"

Gaige sighed as she put her phone on her pocket and began to leave. As she was about to turn to a corner and disappear, she stopped and looked at Flash once more, this time with a gentle look.

"...I hope that you can atleast respect my wishes," Gaige said in a soft-spoken voice, "Otherwise, I can't feel comfortable around you."

With that said, Gaige left and disappeared from the group. The boys looked on while Flash punched the wall in anger. Warhawk began to laugh at him as the blue haired boy continued to punch the wall.

"DAMN IT! She doesn't want me to be near her, I can't touch her, and she's treating me like a pest!" Flash exclaimed in anger, "How did it turn out this way?!"

"Dude, that can't be helped," Warhawk chuckled, "If you look from her point of view, you'd find it abnormal as well."

"Also I'm her brother and I do appreciate you trying to court her and what not," Treble added, "BUT YOU ARE INDEED GOING WAY TOO FAR!"

"Am I at fault then?" Flash said as he began to calm down.

"No, I'm not saying that you are at fault," Warhawk explained, "There's nothing more repulsive than a guy you dislike touching you."

Flash's eyes widened in fear as he soon realized what was happening. He bowed his head and sat on the stairs in disappointment.

"I-Is that so?" That's difficult..." Flash said in a low tone, "Mom mentioned that to me before. There are two choices for boys; to take responsibility and date her, or be irresponsible about it.."

The boys nodded in agreement as the school bell rang. They then went on to their class as the day went by as usual.

Time went by and it was now the end of the day. Flash looked all over for Gaige but couldn't seem to find her, so he decided to walk home himself. With the many things running in his mind, Flash could only think of Gaige and only her. He watched the sun go down in the background and contemplated on things.

After walking for a while, he finally saw his house in the distance. The moon shined in the sky as he got near the house. His eyes were then caught on a girl holding a guitar case infront of his doorsteps. He soon recognized this person and hurriedly ran to the doorstep. The girl looked at him with a blank expression while Flash gave out a small smile.

"Gaige? What are you doing here?" Flash asked.

"Well, Ringo couldn't find you earlier," Gaige replied as she handed the guitar, "So he wanted me to give you his guitar for tuning."

Gaige picked up her bag and bid farewell to Flash. She began to walk away from Flash while he looked on. Suddenly, Flash ran up to Gaige and grabbed her hand, startling her once again.

"Gaige," Flash called out, "Do you have anything to say?"

Gaige looked at Flash with her brow raised and said, "I said everything I wanted to."

"Ah.. Is that so?"

Flash let go of her and hummed in disappointment. Gaige backed away and turned her back on Flash as the boy sighed. The two stood in silence as the moon shined on them. Gaige suddenly turned to Flash once more with a serious expression.

"Flash, I'm not going to fall inlove with you."

"What's up with this suddenly?" Flash said as he arched his brows, "Are you trying to start another fight?"

"But," Gaige continued, "Even when the answer's obvious, making one wait for it, is the worst thing you can do."

The two stared at each other for a while. Flash's expression slowly turned to sadness as he slowly approached Gaige.

"That's okay," Flash said in a low tone, "That feeling, I'll change it for you... Give me your bag, I'm walking you home."

*THUMP*

Gaige's eyes widened just as Flash was infront of her. Her heart began to slowly beat rapidly. Her feelings for him suddenly returned, which she did not understand why.

Flash got a hold of Gaige's bag and looked at her. He noticed her beautiful sparkling jade eyes and lips. Once again, he had this urge because he was madly inlove with her. Flash closed his eyes and his lips then slowly approached hers, hoping to get a kiss. As he was about to kiss her, he remembered what Warhawk said to him earlier. He then slowly backed off and looked at the ground to avoid eye contact with Gaige.

"That was close.." Flash thought in relief.

Flash proceeded to look up and saw Gaige. Her face was all red and her pupils shrank. Flash's chest began to accelerate as Gaige grabbed her bag from him and slowly backed away.

"I'M GOING HOME!" Gaige shrieked as she ran off, leaving Flash while his face turned red.

*THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP*

"Gaige is so cute...." Flash thought.

Gaige kept on walking and walking until she was in the clear. She soon stopped near a street light and began to recollect herself. Her heart began increase in speed rapidly and she could feel her face becoming hot. She took out her phone and opened her camera to look at herself. She was surprised to see her face all red like a tomato.

"There's no mistaking it, I-I-I wasn't wrong after all," Gaige said in a nervous and stuttering manner, "W-Why is t-t-this happening again?"

Gaige took a deep breath and slapped herself. She forced herself to forget about what just happened and continued walking.

"Calm down, calm down, calm down, ochitsuku, ochitsuku, ochitsuku." Gaige repeated as she wandered through the night.

It was a new day for the people of Canterlot and dozens of children and teenagers wandered the streets in costumes, as it was now Halloween time again. Over at the Mix's house, Treble was in Gaige's room and just finished putting on the last bit of make up to complete his Broken Matt Hardy get up. Next to him was a box which had Gaige's cat costume.

Gaige, who just got back from helping her father work on something, had grease and oil around her clothes. She entered her room and began stripping down to her red underwear, not giving a care that her brother is there. She then sat on her bed and raised a brow.

"I better not hear any incest jokes in the comments." She said.

"Shhh, stop breaking the fourth wall," Treble laughed as he carried the box and placed it next to Gaige, "Now suit up."

Gaige opened up the box and dug through the pink styrofoam inside. Her hand then struck on the costume, and proceeded to pull it out of the box. She began to feel excited to see what her costume was gonna be. Finally, the costume was revealed and Gaige's jaw dropped while Treble smiled in amusement.

"Does thou like it?" Treble exclaimed.

"TREBLE WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?!" Gaige exclaimed in disappointment.

"It's a cat costume!" Treble replied, "Well, Lucky Chloe from Tekken to be exact."

"Are you trying to make me look like a prostitute or something?!"

"What the? NO! I think it looks cute, right mom?"

Treble leaned and turned to the door. Over at the door was Moxi who was creepily staring at Gaige like she was her prey. Gaige gulped nervously as Moxi slowly walked towards her. She raised both of her twitching hands, which made Gaige even more uncomfortable. Treble on the other hand, began to whistle sarcastically as he slowly walked out of the room, leaving the mother and daughter alone.

"M-Mom? Y-You okay?" Gaige stuttered.

"Pumpkin, you are going to wear that cute and fabulous costume, or your precious robot gets the boot," Moxi said in a creepy manner, "Got it?"

Treble waited outside their house while he played Pokemon Go. He watched the kids in costumes pass by as he walked around their yard like a crazy idiot. Suddenly, the door of their house. Coming out of the house was Gaige who was wearing the sexy Lucky Chloe costume. Treble whistled as he put his arms out and formed a rectangle with his fingers. He began to act like he was a camera man for a fashion show, which annoyed Gaige.

"Girl, if you weren't my sister, I WOULD DEFINITELY SMASH." Treble chuckled.

"Shut up baka."

Gaige entered Treble's car and made their way to Sugarcube Corner, which was where the Halloween party was held. After a long ride with Treble blaring out loud dubstep through his speaker, they finally reached the place. From outside, they could hear the loud EDM music getting played by Vinyl. Treble turned to Gaige and spoke.

"OH EM GEE DO YOU HEAR THAT? MY WUB IS AN ANGEL!" Treble exclaimed like he was in an ecstasy, "I'm gonna crash this party!"

"You go ahead, I need to check my blog real quick." Gaige said as she took out her phone.

Treble shook his shoulders and headed inside. Gaige sat on one of the tables and checked her blog. She found it difficult to use her phone due to the cat paws on her hands, but managed to scroll through her phone with a gentle method.

"Uhh, excuse me."

A familiar English voice came infront of her. She looked up to see a boy wearing a gray jacket and black pants. Gaige quickly recognized the boy when she saw the black aviator glasses and black spiky hair.

"Neon?"

"How do you- GAIGE?!" Neon exclaimed as he backed away in surprised, "What the hell are you wearing mate?"

Gaige raised a brow and said, "What? I'm dressed as a cat."

"How is dressing up like a slapper considered a cat?"

"Slapper?"

"A Slut."

"HEY! I WAS FORCED TO WEAR THIS CRAP!" Gaige exclaimed, "Anyways, what are you doing?"

"Nothing, I just got back from a CPA party and it bored the crap out of me," Neon explained while he rubbed the back of his head, "I'm heading home, see ya mate."

With that said, Neon departed and Gaige went back to checking her blog. She just realized that Neon wasn't in costume, but shook it off and went on with her business. After a few minutes, Neon came back with his brow raised. He began to rub his head in irritation as Gaige just looked at him blankly.

"This block is really big..." Neon murmured.

"Is he lost?" Gaige thought.

"I've already spent like an hour looking for the bus stop."

"You could just act directions dude." Gaige chuckled.

"I don't like asking other wankers for help." Neon replied as he crossed his arms and looked away from Gaige.

"Yep, Wade Barrette here is lost."

The doors of Sugarcube Corner opened and out came Treble, who was holding a bottle of soda. As he was about to speak, he soon noticed the two and grinned.

"HOLY SKAGF*CK! NEO-"

"Treble, I wanna hit you right now so badly, so please don't irritate me." Neon interrupted coldly.

"Jeez, talk about anger issues," Treble said, "Dear sister, Flash Sentry is looking for thou and thy can't entertain thy name anymore."

Gaige looked at her brother with a confused looked, but decided not to question him since they're the same. Gaige made her way to the doorway and stopped to look at Neon.

"Neon." Gaige called out.

"Yeah?"

"You and Flash used to be friends, do you want to come?"

Inside, dozens of teenagers danced to the loud EDM music coming out of the speakers. Everyone was dressed up as their favorite character or was a generic zombie or vampire. Over at one of the tables, Flash, who was dressed up as Edward Cullen, was talking to Ringo and Brawly about his car. The two were dressed up as the Blues Brothers.

"...Then I bought this sick-ass spoiler from the internet for a cheap price!" Flash explained as he described the spoiler with gestures.

"You lucky bastard. I got my car spoiler in a car shop." Ringo said in a defeated tone.

"That's not all, it's so sick I also named the spoiler Gaige Mi-"

"BAKA. DON'T USE MY NAME FOR THAT THING."

Flash turned around and saw Gaige glaring at him. At first he was mesmerized by Gaige's costume, but soon turn to anger. His eyes went wide open when he saw Neon beside Gaige. He stood up in anger and clenched his fist.

"Oh, Alchemy was looking for you earlier," Gaige reminded, "He wanted to return your screwdriver he borrowed.

"Neon, why are you with her? Only Flash gets her." Ringo teased.

"He was lost." Gaige said.

"I didn't get lost!" Neon exclaimed.

Flash's eye twitched as he got infront of Neon and Gaige. Flash looked at Neon in anger, while the latter smiled and looked at him. Flash then turned his attention to Gaige. Somewhere else in another table, a discreet Hazel eavesdropped and spied on the group with her phone out, determined to capture something memorable between Gaige and Flash.

"Why are you with Neon?" Flash said angrily.

"C-Coincidence?" Gaige explained in a nervous manner.

Neon noticed the fight brewing up and thought of something. He then wrapped his arm around Gaige and smiled at Flash, making him even more pissed.

"Hey, wanker, you shouldn't treat a girl like that." Neon said as he continued to tease Flash.

"Huh?!" Flash exclaimed in irritation, "Hey wait up Gaige! You said that I couldn't touch you, so why don't you say anything when this douchebag touched you?"

"Eh? I'm not-"

"Isn't it obvious?" Neon interrupted the two with a big smile on his face, "It's because I'm better than you! And she hates you!"

Flash snapped and prepared his fist. He sent his fist flying to Neon, who dodged it easily.

"Stay away from Gaige!" Flash shouted.

"Nah," Neon chuckled, "Wanker, why are you getting so angry?"

Flash prepared his fist once again and launched it to Neon's face. As it was about to hit him, Neon moved out of the way just in time, but soon regretted it. Flash's fist went straight to Gaige's face, which knocked her to the ground. Flash, Neon, Ringo and Brawly began to shake in fear as they watched Gaige slowly get up.

In the distance, Hazel began to panic as she turned off her phone and bit her nails multiple times.

"H-Hurry up and apologize to Gaige." Hazel nervously said to herself, "Flash! Say sorry to Gaige properly!"

"Sh*t, NEON THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT!" Flash shouted to Neon.

"Huh? How is this my fault?" Neon retaliated.

"Flash...." Gaige murmured.

Flash turned to Gaige and began to shiver. She had blood coming out of her nose and had a menacing glare looking straight at Flash. His pupils shrank the moment Gaige got up and began to walk away. She soon stopped and glared at Flash once more.

"From now on, don't even try coming closer than five meters from me." Gaige said in a heated voice.

The boys' jaws dropped in unison as Gaige made her way to the bathroom to clean up the blood. After a few minutes in the bathroom and failure to stop the bleeding, she went out to ask for her brother's handkerchief. As she got out of the bathroom, she saw Neon leaning on the wall next to the bathroom.

"Hey," Neon greeted as he took out a handkerchief, "Take this. Because of me, you got hit by that wanker and got a nose bleed."

"It was really your fault!" Gaige said as she arched her brow and took the handkerchief.

"I did nothing wrong! The first belonged to Flash!" Neon said as he crossed his arms, who then proceeded to smile, "Poor Flash, even you are giving up on him, he must feel so lonely!"

"Look at your gleeful smile.." Gaige said in a muffled voice while she rubbed her nose with the handkerchief.

"Gaige! You can't expect anything from him!" Neon chuckled.

"I never expected anything from him!"

Neon stopped laughing as he looked at Gaige with a smile. The girl raised a brow and stared at the sunglasses wearing boy.

"Want me to tell you why you can't break free of him?"

"Huh? How do you-"

"Believe me, I see what I see."

"I'm listening.."

"It's because of your expectations," Neon explained, "Words and actions from Flash raises your hopes. That's why you can't give up on him."

"...Yeah that sounds right I think... How about we take a walk?"

Gaige and Neon made their way out of the place and went to the park for a quick work. There, they saw kids frolicking on the grass and a few adults drinking and having a picnic. While there, Neon continued to lecture Gaige.

"You expect things from Flash, and he fails to meet your expectations," Neon explained while he kicked a stone off the pavement, "You really are cruel, mate."

Gaige listened intently to his advice and began to get impressed at Neon. She couldn't believe a low-life scum like Neon would have an intellect. She then soon realized something from Neon's advice.

"Did I hurt him?" Gaige said in a low tone.

"What?" Neon said in surprise, "You've just realized that living alone is lonely?"

"Oh, I'm sorry.. It's because I've been alone in Japan for I don't know, ten years and I never felt lonely!" Gaige replied.

"Idiot, loneliness is a thing that you can only feel when you have people around you."

The words went straight to Gaige's head. She stopped and began to contemplate about it. Her cheeks began to glow red as Neon looked at her.

"No wonder..." Gaige said, "I think that you're truly a genius.."

*THUMP*

Neon's chest began to slowly beat rapidly. He looked away from her and soon noticed a group in the distance. He soon recognized one of them. He had blue messy hair and looked like a bit like Flash. His pupils shrank as sweat came from his head.

"Hey doesn't that look like-"

Neon grabbed Gaige and pulled her to a bush to hide. The group passed by as the two remained discreet in the bush.

In the bush, Neon was on Gaige while he looked if the coast was clear. Neon sighed in relief when he saw the group looking away. He turned his sight to Gaige, who had her eyes closed and was rubbing her head. Neon soon noticed Gaige's cleavage and began to blush.

"W-What's going on?" Gaige groaned in pain.

"That was Flash's older brother, Blaze," Neon explained as he turned away from her, "The hell is he doing here?"

"...Are you scared of Blaze?" Gaige raised a brow.

"Idiot! There's nothing that can make me scared!" Neon said with pride, "I-I-I just have s-some unpleasant m-m-memories."

"He's definitely afraid of him.." Gaige thought when she noticed Neon shivering a bit.

"The things that he did to me in retaliation for bullying Flash...." Neon stuttered.

"I feel that one day your pride will destroy you dude."

"Shut up."

Gaige began to feel pain due to Neon's leg on hers. She coughed and looked at Neon blankly. Neon soon realized and moved out of the way. Gaige began to pat out the dirt on her costume while Neon lifted both of his hands.

"Just so you know, I do not have feelings for you whatsoever!" Neon proclaimed.

"Huh? What are you trying to say?" Gaige said in confusion while she raised a brow.

"Nevermind," Neon said as he shook his head, "I'm heading home, you want me to take you back?"

"Nah I'm good."

"Alright, see ya."

"See ya Nylon, this was a good talk."

After saying goodbye, Gaige made her way back to Sugarcube Corner. On her way there, she thought of Neon's advice and began to think of what she should do to Flash, and what path she should choose. She then arrived at the place. The music was still loud and she could see dozens of people still inside.

Gaige headed inside and noticed the big crowd. She felt agitated and wanted to go home, so she decided to look for her brother. For a few minutes, she wandered through the party only to find a missing brother. She gave up and stopped by the table which contained food and drinks. Very thirsty, she grabbed a cup and scooped her drink from a punch. She then took a sip of it and became satisfied of the taste. Gaige then drank it all in and scooped up another one, which she proceeded to drink once more. She then saw Mrs. Cake passing by.

"Yo Mrs. Cake what kind of juice is this?" Gaige asked, "It's freaking delicious!"

"Oh that's just plain applejuice mixed with a bit of sugar." Mrs. Cake explained as she passed by.

Somewhere else, Flash was looking around for Gaige throughout the party for a while. He began to get worried for accidentally punching her. He was about to lose hope until he saw Gaige on a table with her face lying down. Flash smiled like a kid and made his way to her. As Flash reacher her, he began to shook her to get her attention.

"Gaige?" Flash called out.

"WHAT?!"

Gaige sat up and had looked at Flash. The boy was startled when he saw the drunk face that Gaige wore.

"Gaige are you okay?" Flash asked.

"Of course I'm okay! Randamuna kotoba ga nihongo de boroboro ni narimashita. Furasshu wa bakadesu!" Gaige exclaimed in a slurty tone as she stood up, "COME ON! Let's have some fun..."

Gaige grabbed Flash's hand and pulled him along. She began to drag her to the kitchen then to a staircase. As they ascended, Flash grew more and more confused. Gaige then led Flash to a dark room and pushed him. He then landed on a bed while Gaige locked the room and turned on the light, revealing it to be Pinkie's bedroom.

Meanwhile, Pinkie's closet began to rattle, but was ignored because Flash was worrying about Gaige, who took off her pink cat jacket and began to walk seductively to Flash.

"Uh, Gaige?!" Flash exclaimed nervously, "What are you doing?!"

"Don't worry, I've a hentai and I know what I'm doing..." Gaige said in a slurty tone as she got on the bed.

Inside the closet was Hazel, who was drooling and had her phone out. She discreetly recorded what was going on and was begging to see more.

"Okay that sounded really sexy but Gaige I don't think we should do this yet." Flash said.

"Oh don't be such a pussy Brad..." Gaige murmured as she got on Flash, which made him go full on red.

"NYAAAHAAA." Flash exclaimed in an excited but yet nervous tone.

"Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it." Hazel silently whispered in the closet.

"What's with the look Flash? You can touch me wherever you like.." Gaige said as she began to slowly take off her top.

As much as Flash wanted it to happen, he quickly stopped Gaige from stripping her top. He then got up and flipped Gaige over. He got on top of her and began to hold her in place. Flash looked at her with a serious look as the girl began to laugh hysterically.

"DAMN IT." Hazel thought.

"Baka, you're so cute when you're serious." Gaige laughed.

Flash sighed as he let go of Gaige. He then sat on the side of the bed while Gaige remained lying on the bed. The boy pinched the bridge of his nose and looked at Gaige once more, this time with a disappointed expression.

"I screwed up again didn't I?" Flash said in a sad tone, referring to the things that has happened for the past few days, "I'm not supposed to do things like that."

"Yeaaaahhaaaaaa... Think about what you've done," Gaige said as she burped, "You're seriously an idiot!"

Flash groaned in disappointment while Gaige sat up and placed her hand on his shoulder.

"Don't worry, I'm also an idiot like you," The intoxicated Gaige explained, "Always making f*cking mistakes."

"...Do I really have to stay five meters away from you?" A worried Flash said.

"Nah screw that, I hate rules anyway," Gaige said as she jumped on the bed, "And it doesn't make sense."

"Oh, you've realized that now? You've grown up huh?" Flash smiled.

"Stop being so arrogant Brad!" Gaige said in a childish manner.

Suddenly, someone knocked on the door, which startled Flash. He began to panic and looked at Gaige, who passed out on the bed. Flash began to become hysteric even more and could not seem to know what to do. He began to shake Gaige to wake her up, but failed to do so. Having no choice, he let out a defeated sigh and went infront of the door. He began to slowly turn the knob as he thought of his future in highschool, will it be ruined or be immortalized?

With that, he opened the door, revealing it to be Pinkie Pie.

"P-Pinkie?" Flash said in surprise.

"Flash? What are you doing in my room? Are you trying to steal my bubblegum collection?!" Pinkie exclaimed as she pointed a finger.

"What?! No!" Flash explained, "I just... Placed Gaige here because she's not feeling well, can you look after her for me?"

"...What's in it for me?"

"You get to call me Brad whenever you."

"DEAL!"

"Alright, I'm heading home, I don't want to trouble her anymore.."

An hour had passed and Gaige regained consciousness (And Hazel was still stuck inside the closet due to Pinkie guarding Gaige). Having only bits of her memory from early on, she decided to just forget what happened, even if it was embarrassing (Pinkie, who mysteriously knows what happened, began to explain things to her, which made her cringe). She looked in the mirror and saw that her costume was messed up, so she asked Pinkie for clothes. Pinkie then gave her a gray shirt and a black skirt.

After thanking and saying goodbye to Pinkie, Gaige made her way out through the empty dancefloor. Outside, she could feel the cool breeze going through her and saw the moon shine through the night. She then yawned and proceeded to go home. As she turned to a corner, she noticed Flash's car next to an alley. She began to question why the car was there but tried to ignore it to avoid Flash. As she walked passed the alley, she turned to the Alley and saw Flash sitting near a wall, sleeping.

"Did he wait for me?" Gaige said to herself as she went infront of him.

Somehow, the peaceful sight that Gaige was seeing made her feel relaxed. She had an urge to touch Flash's hair for some reason. She then knelt down and slowly placed her hand on Flash's hair. She began to rub it, which she seemed to enjoy. Suddenly on reflex, Flash woke up and grabbed her hand.

"G-Gaige?!" Flash exclaimed.

"YOU SCARED ME!" A startled Gaige said.

"Isn't that what I'm supposed to say?!"

*BA-DUMP BA-DUMP BA-DUMP BA-DUMP BA-DUMP BA-DUMP BA-DUMP*

Flash raised a brow and looked at Gaige with a confused look as she stood up.

"What are you doing?" Flash asked.

"Er... I... I just wanted to touch your hair.." Gaige said nervously as she looked away.

"Huh? My hair?"

There was an awkward silence between the two. Flash began to notice Gaige blushing bright red infront of her. He began to get annoyed of Gaige's behavior and had enough of it. Flash pulled her down once more and got into her face with a serious and furious expression.

"I don't understand you! You say you don't love me, but you act like you do! Then you tell me to stay away!" An irritated Flash reacted as his face got closer to Gaige's, "DO I HAVE A CHANCE OR NOT?!"

"W-What do you want me to say?" Gaige said nervously.

Flash continued to glare at Gaige. The expression on him made Gaige realize one thing: Flash was always sincere. He never jokes about things like that. Gaige soon realized something else, the person who always avoided the issue... Was her. She has never been honest to him.

"Flash... My hand hurts." Gaige said as she looked down, prompting Flash to let go.

"Sorry..." Flash apologized.

"Being near you, makes me always think.... Why do I have this feeling? Am I making the right choice?" Gaige explained as her eyes began to become teary, "If it's the wrong one, will I end up liking you until I can't focus on what I love doing anymore?"

Flash's heart began to become heavy as he saw bits of tears coming out of Gaige.

"I-I-I hate it... I don't want to have those kind of thoughts ever again," Gaige continued with a saddened tone as she slowly started to break down, "I-I-I don't ever w-w-w-want to not be able to be m-me again.."

"G-Gaige?"

"I-I-I-I don't-"

Suddenly, Flash grabbed a hold of Gaige and pulled her into an embrace. The two began to feel the warmth of each other as the two blushed like crazy.

"W-What are you d-doing Flash?!" Gaige exclaimed as she began to sweat.

"I-I don't know either! I don't know but.."

*THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP*

Gaige's chest began to thump louder and louder. Even louder than before, her face was all hot. She was about to question what was going on, but then remembered something. She began to recall her time with Flash at the bleachers, where she felt the warmth of another human being for the first time, a sense of security both comforting and heartrending. At that time of being alone, she didn't truly understand what that feeling was.

Gaige got back to her senses and pulled away from Flash. She gave Flash a sincere look as she continued to blush infront of him.

"Flash, can... Can you give me a little more time?" Gaige said as she got close to Flash, "I need to think about our relationship."

After hearing what Gaige had to say, Flash's worries disappeared in an instant. He let out a warm smile as he nodded in approval.

"We'll face each other... Flash and I... Everything else is after that."

Author's Notes:

...Look's like they're making progress... And let's not hope Neon doesn't fall for her... Or will he?

I just love Tonari No Kaibutsu Kun's OST, it gives the "Feels".

And now for the multicultural:

He estado teniendo pesadillas, siento que algo me recorre. Ni siquiera puedo cagar sin sensación de que algo está ahí, observando. Podría ser mis antepasados, tratando de decirme la verdad. Estoy al miedo de contestar sin embargo.
