Prank Wars

Post-It!

Naru had been scolded by not only his parents that night, but Madoka, Lin, Ayako and Monk pitched in too. Mai had ignored him, even at breakfast the following morning where she had taken her food and walked out of the room.

Yasu had watched the procession of the narcissist throughout the day and by the time the sun was setting, Naru's many failed attempts to reconcile with Mai had drawn sympathy from the prank master. What he didn't know, was that the narcissist was planning revenge...

~X-x-X~

"Mai." Naru's voiced carried through the door of the brunette's room in hopes that she would at least listen to him. "Look, Mai. I didn't mean for things to... turn out like they did. But it wasn't completely my fault. So, if you would please open the door, I'd like to speak with you properly."

"You said please." Mai creaked the door open slightly, half her face showing despite the darkness in both the hallway and her room.

"Yes Mai. While I don't usually show them as much as I should, I do have manners. I should use them more, I know. So... Will you let me in?" The narcissist had a tinge of pink on his cheeks as he waited for her answer. To say he was uncomfortable with the situation was an understatement. Sure, he realised what he had said was wrong, but he wanted to make up for it. He released the breathe he didn't realise he was holding when she pulled the door open enough for him to enter.

"It's... okay. I guess I overreacted. I mean, I really should be used to how you act by now. Don't ya think?" She smiled at him before sitting on her bed, patting the spot next to her to tell him to sit.

"I suppose... But, I really am sorry Mai. I guess, Yasu's pranks got to me and-"

"You wanted to get back at him but also tried to get me alone?" Her words caused him to stiffen before he nodded his head, the only light coming from outside her bedroom window.

"I meant what I said Mai. I would like to get to know you better. That is... If you'll let me." His confession made her heart flutter, silently scolding herself for thinking it had a deeper meaning.

"I'd love that Naru. So then, if you're going to get to know me better, how about we start with this..." He gazed at her quizzically as she got up, only to bend down and grab a back from under the bed. "First thing you can learn... Is that I have a mischeivios side that should not be messed with."

"Misheif?"

"I think it's time we pranked the pranker." She giggled at her words while a smrik grew on Naru's face. He reached out and grabbed the bag from her hands, easily plucking it from her grasp as her eyes twinkled, even in the dim light of the room. Opening it, he blinked.

"Post it notes?" He pulled out a sticky, multicoloured pad and held it up like it was some kind of amazing invention. (It really is. I like the slinky ones that... Never mind... .)

"Yep, you know those tax ads on tv? Where the cloud of paper comes out of nowhere ad covers everything?" She received a nod, "Well, I'm going to do it to Yasu and his room. Care to join me in my vendetta?"

His smirk grew as he stood up, putting down the bag and sticking out his hand. "It would be my pleasure."

~X-x-X~

After everyone was asleep, Naru had gone back to Mai's room, having left to avoid suspicion, and knocked quietly on her door. It opened will a creak and she slunk out of her room, arms filled with post it notes to avoid unnecessary noise.

"Ready?" He hissed, slowly moving down the hallway. He heard a quiet confirmation and he stopped infront of Yasu's door. Leaning on the doorframe, he opened the door a little, sticking his head in the make sure that their victim was actually asleep. Tugging Mai's pajama sleeve, he pushed the door open and closed it once Mai was in.
