The Beautiful People

Have a Nice Day

"So..." Kika said quietly. She was laying next to Kio on the bed she and Frank shared in Soubi's apartment. They were watching Natsuo and Yuuki piece together a puzzle. Or, more accurately, watching Yuuki work on the puzzle while Natsuo sat next to her, his arm around her waist. Kika was glad Yuuki had finally found someone worth being with, even if he was a Zero.

Emi and Youji were sitting on the opposite side of the room. The male Sacrifice was teaching her to play Wisdom Resurrection, his green hair falling over her shoulders and back as he leaned over her to point at the screen, creating an interesting mixture of light green and blonde. Emi was picking up the theory of the game quickly. When she made it to the next level, she turned and planted a kiss on his mouth. She turned back to the game while Youji sat in stunned silence.

In the two months they'd been in town, Kotone had, surprisingly enough, developed a relationship with one of Ritsuka's classmates, Shioiri Yayoi. The boy's feelings for Hawatari Yuiko had all but disappeared. The couple was currently sitting on the couch, watching CSI: NY. Yayoi was fascinated by Danny's investigation techniques.

Soubi and Ritsuka were painting. Again, the more accurate wording was that Soubi was painting and Ritsuka was making a mess of the canvas that had been given to him. Yuiko was watching, trying to help but not really doing anything for either of the guys.

Midori and Ai were still hanging around too. Frank had given in to her feelings and the urging of Emi and Kika and was now actually dating Midori. Ai was like a little sister. A good little sister, not like her real sister, Maiko. Ai and Frank were playing Twister (a typical silly game for Frank), while Midori spun for them.

"Right foot, red," Midori announced. Frank and Ai moved their right feet from green spots to red ones, further complicating their tangles of arms and legs.

Kika and Kio were lounging on the bed (FULLY CLOTHED, mind you!). Since meeting Kika, Kio had changed. Not only had his feelings for Soubi faded, if not comepletely disappeared, but he was no longer strictly gay. At the most, he was bisexual. Other than the Fighter-Sacrifice bond he had with Kotone, his bond with Kika was the strongest bond he'd recently formed. As for Kika, she no longer jumped from guy to guy. Somehow, Kio had caught and kept her interest.

Soubi looked up from his butterfly painting at the full room. If Nanatsu no Tsuki kept sending teams they didn't want, he would have to get a bigger apartment. Luckily, Kotone stayed with Kio, since she was his Fighter. It looked like Dreamless would be moving there too soon, and maybe Breathless. That would leave him with Zero and Careless. Now, if he could just get Ritsuka to move in...

A perverted look must have taken over his features, because when he looked up again, everyone was giving him looks with a mixture of worry and disgust in them...

Oops.
