Mei led the way up the stairs and into her bedroom, with Lien following silently. The two girls sat cross-legged on Mei's bed and started talking. They enjoyed the time they spent together, Mei being an overexcitable girl, and Viet being a sensible quiet girl, the two were quite an unusual couple when first seen, but when they were talking, they could talk for hours, days even. Mei could even occasionally get a small smile out of Lien. It was rare for Lien to smile, but whenever she did, Mei always took a mental note, and never forgot a single smile Lien gave her. Mei got off the bed and walked over to her CD player, grinning at Lien as she did so. She pushed her favourite CD into the player and walked over to Lien, who was still sitting on the bed. Mei reached out her hand to the other girl and said sweetly, as the music started to play,

"May I have this dance?"

The two girls danced gracefully around the room, spinning in time with the music and Lien occasionally getting lifted off her feet by an over enthusiastic Mei. It wasn't a large room, but it had just enough space for the pair to dance into each corner and spin around, their dresses fluttering on their legs. It was late when they stopped dancing, and both sat exhausted on Mei's bed. They sat in silence for a bit, both too tired to say anything. Mei was the first to speak, or rather, sing. She started singing a tune to herself and then turned to Lien, urging her to join in. The quieter girl was too embarrassed at first, but joined in, almost silently singing in tune with Mei, and placed her hand on the other girl's hand. They both sat singing, appreciating each others company and glancing at each other every now and then. They went through a few songs before Mei stopped singing and turned to Lien with a mischeivous smile dancing on her lips. She leaned closer to Lien, who was now blushing madly. It was strange how quickly Mei could switch moods. Lien gasped as Mei closed the gap between their lips, blushing furiously. The music was still playing in the background, but the girls weren't paying it any attention. Mei was still leaning into the kiss, though she was running out of air. Eventually the girls drew away from each other, panting. After taking a few deep breaths of air Mei reconnected the kiss, slowly pushing Lien's back to the bed. They were completely oblivious to the footsteps coming up the stairs, or making their way to the door. In fact, they only noticed when China walked into the room and yelled in surprise. Both girls went a deep red as they looked at each other, then at China, who just muttered his apologies and walked out of the room.
