Slayer:So I spin?
Vanessa:Yes.
Slayer:Alright.
*Slayer spins the bottle. After a bit it lands on Slayer*
Slayer:Uhhh?
Vanessa:I'll spin.
*Vanessa spins the bottle. After a bit it lands on Acier*
Slayer:Can I pass my turn off?
Acier:Wow Slayer. You afraid of a little aged wine?
Slayer:Yes.
Asta:Eh he's not a man of class. However I am.
Noelle:How so?
Asta:I'll take his spot if he backs out.
Vanessa:So what you're saying is that-
Noelle:*Jealous and offended*You're going to kiss my mom!?!
Slayer:Go ahead.
Asta:Alright.
*Asta and Slayer swap places*
Slayer:You got popcorn?
Vanessa:Oh you know it.
*Acier and Asta prep themselves for the kiss. As they are doing this Noelle is death staring Asta because he's about th lose his first kiss to her mother*
Vanessa:Anyday now.
Acier:*Puts her hair in a ponytail*Oh shut it Vanessa.
Asta:*Fixing his collar and hair*See Vanessa, Acier is a fine a wine. You gotta do this a certain way.
*Vanessa gets a little worried that they are taking this too seriously while Noelle is in disbelief of what happening in front of her. Meanwhile Slayer is just face palming*
Vanessa:Should-
Slayer:*Seemingly knowing something*Let it play out.
*Asta and Acier going in for the kiss. As they kiss they stay together longer than expected making it very awkward.*
*Noelle suddenly gets up and runs*
Vanessa:Dammit Slayer is tha-
*Slayer gets up and calmly walks the direction Noelle ran*
Vanessa:Well tha-
*Vanessa looks over at Asta and Acier seeing that they are getting TOO into it*
Vanessa:FUCKING HELL GET A ROOM!?!?
*By a lake with the dusk sky reflecting off of it*
Noelle:*Through her tears*Does he not..realize I like him....Clearly not cause since he is apparently into my mom.
*Birds and crickets start to chirp*
Noelle:Was he just using me?...Or was he just using me to get to my mom??
*Noelle starts to break down. After a couple of minutes of breaking down she finally start to calm down*
???:You done yet?
*Noelle gets startled and jumps*
Noelle:What the!?-
Slayer:Good to see you too.
Noelle:Oh..hey Slayer.
Slayer:You okay?
Noelle:Just great.
Slayer:That was a dumb question.
Noelle:Yeah it was.
Slayer:S-Sorry. I...I'll just go.
*Slayer gets up and starts to walk away. After a few internalized seconds Noelle realizes what she did.*
Noelle:Slayer!
*Slayer keeps on walking*
Noelle:*Under her breath*Dammit.
*Hours pass as its night time and Noelle is by the lake still. She can hear the others looking for her but she's hiding her mana and trying her best to suppress her ki.*
Noelle:*Quietly* Just leave me be....
*She starts to cry a bit more but not loudly*
Noelle:Am I just that much of a fuck up..First, the guy i dream that would be my first for everything makes out with my mother and I shoved the one person who came to help me away......Why am I like this?
*Suddenly she feels a arm and blanket wrap around her*
Noelle:Huh??
*As Noelle looks up she sees Slayer has made her rest her head on his lap and brought his signature stew for her*
Noelle:Slayer I-
*Slayer puts his finger over her lips. He turns her head to the lake and tilts it up slightly*
Noelle:Slayer what are you-
*Suddenly Noelle's words can't formulate as she realizes Slayer just put his helmet on her. Much to her surprise it's not smelly or sweaty but quite warm and scented.*
Noelle:*In her head* Does..no it cant be.
*Noelle tries to get a look at Slayer but he immediately covers the visor*
Noelle:*Turns her head back to the lake and to herself* He does doesn't he!? Oh no..Does that mean this entire time-
*Noelle has flashbacks to all the times Slayer saved her and brought her along with him on missions or shopping*
Noelle:He...He does...Oh shit...
Slayer:Well-
*Noelle's eyes widen at the sound of Slayer's voice without the distortion of the helmet*
Noelle:His voice. It's soft..Is this...Real?!
Slayer:If couldn't have figured it out yet...I uh-....I like you....Noelle.
Noelle:*With the distortion of his helmet* Well I figured that out now dummy.
Slayer:I understand if you're taken back by this or you don't feel the same.
Noelle:No it-
Slayer:It was honestly my only chance and even then...it was a shot in the dark.
*Noelle is taken back by the lacking of confidence that Slayer is showing right now. Considering how he is so confident and determined all the time around everyone.*
Noelle:Well..I am taken back a little bit but...its not because of you liking me...its just-
Slayer:You've never heard me this undetermined and lacking of confidence.
Noelle:Yeah..
Slayer:Figured. Anyways I brought you some food if you're hungry.
*As Noelle sits up Slayer takes his helmet and puts it on*
Noelle:Yeah I figured that much.
Slayer:Again that was probably obvious.
Noelle:Well thank you for the stew.
Slayer:No problem.
Noelle:Also Slayer.
Slayer:Yeah?
Noelle:I liked how you actually sounded without the helmet.
Slayer:Really?
Noelle:Yeah. Also why do you not want me to see your face?
Slayer:*Sighs* Fine.
Noelle:Fine what?!
Slayer:Just don't tell anyone.
Noelle:Wait..*To herself* Is he actually going to show his face!?
*Slayer grabs his helmet and lifts it off of his head. Just as his helmet is about to come off, suddenly...*
