Master of Teasing

"Halloween costumes"

- Halloween is coming! - said Takagi. - We need to find some costumes. Get dressed and let's go to shopping!
- Why are you acting like this? - Nishikata asked.
- How?
- You really want to go to Halloween?
- Of course, i want. Because... i want to scare a little coward. *giggles*
- "Little coward"? ... Oh, boy, how it's very funny. I'm not a coward!
- Let's go already, silly.
- Grrrr!

In the store

Nishikata and Takagi went together on shop and tried to find good suits. On this day, the entire store was filled with a huge crowd of people. Everyone was constantly rushing from side to side and pushing each other. Nishikata and Takagi decided even take each other for hands, to not be lost.

- How many people in here. - Nishikata said.
- It's Halloween soon. Come on, here's the store we need.

They went to the clothing store and began to choose costumes.
- Well, how? - Takagi asked. She was wearing a witch costume.
- Uh... - Nishikata looked at her, and much blushing, quickly turned away and muttered. - n-nice-ly...

- ~Hmm... - Takagi was a little closer to him and whispered in his ear. - you want me to make you... mummy?

- WHAT?! No!

- Hahaha. Then... be seal.
- NO! That's worse!
- Haahahaha! Keep, this your suit.
Nishikata came out of the locker room and was dressed as a vampire.
- How I look?
- Passionate and attractive. Maybe you can turn me into a vampire, Count Nishikata?

- Oh, gods!
- Hahaha!

While they dressed, their noticed Hinata, who also chose to herself costume. When she saw Nishikata from far away, her heart began to beat faster and she blushed profusely.

"Nishikata... He's here! So calm! Be calm! Just go up to him and say hi, that's all. Yeah... I can't. I'm afraid! There also Takagi-chan. But you just came to say hello to them, that's all. * sigh * Okay. Go."

She approached them and tried to say Hello, but because of her shyness Hinata couldn't say a word.

- ... H-h.... hel...
- All right, Hinata? - Takagi asked.

- Y...ye..yeah... I'm... I'm... I'm just... well, I saw you... both. And, I... I thought I'd say Hello. - Hinata trembled with fear.
- Oh... Why are you shaking? Are you cold? - Nishikata asked.

- A little.... But it's much better now.
- Maybe you should go home.
- N-no... I'm fine already, honestly. I am... I'm gonna go get ready for Halloween... Bye...
- Bye.
- See you later.

"Dammit! It was so close. I almost fainted, I need to..."

Hinata fainted. It was noticed by the heroes and quickly ran up to her.

- Hinata? Hinata? - Takagi tried to bring her to life.
- I'll take her to the hospital.
- Okay. Be careful, Yuki.

In Hospital

Nishikata took Hinata to the hospital. He decided to linger, to test, that with it all well. As he sat there, he noticed that his heart started to beat violently and he was shaking for inexplicable reasons.

"What's happening to me? Why am I shaking? Maybe I'm worried about her. But... Why?"

- Nishikata? - asked Hinata, putting a hand on his shoulder. - You okay?
- Huh? Oh, yeah. I'm fine. And you?
- Much better. I just got a little light-headed.
- I see... Well, I should probably go.
- Aha. Thanks for taking me to the hospital.
- You're welcome.
Nishikata was about to leave when he found something holding him back.
- Nishikata?
- I'm... You... Shall I walk you home?
- *strongly blushing* Y...yeah...
They sat together on the bike and went to Hinata's house.

Street

As they drove, Nishikata and Hinata were much blushed and were embarrassed.

"What am I even doing? What for? I have Takagi. I'm not trying to find a new girl! No, it's not! All right. Calm down... Breathe in, breathe out. Behave normally. And don't show your bad side. Maybe if I'm silent, then nothing will happen."

- So you... are you going to the party tomorrow?
- (Shit!) Yeah... And what?
- I was wondering. May I come with you? I'll just be bored.
- (Man! How it will react to Takagi.) You know... (Shit! How embarrassing! Tell her your answer.) Welp... um... yeah...

- Really?
- Mhm...
- Thank you.
They arrived to Hinata's house and before leaving she thanked Nishikata and gave him her mobile number.
- In case something happens.
- Thank you.

Nishikata went home with a smile on his face. (Don't even think! (〃＞＿＜;〃))

At home

- I'm home. 

- Well, finally. Why have you been gone so long?

- Sorry. I just... welp, I just wanted to make sure Hinata was okay.

- Convinced?
- Yeah... And i... I walked her home.
- *looked with curiosity* Hmm... Okay. 
- "Okay?" So you don't care that I walked her home and got her mobile number?
- Nope. I'm already know, that you never leave me. 

- But... 

- No "But". *kiss* We will be stay  together, Yuki. Don't be afraid.

- I'm not afraid... I'm just... 
- Shhh... *closed his mouth finger* Looked at me. *put her hands on his face.* I'll stay with you, no matter what. 

Nishikata took her hand with one hand, and the second began to stroke her head. 
- Thank you. 

- You're welcome, Count Nishikata. *snide smile*
- Oh, god. Not again! 
- Hahahaha! Let's go eat. 
- Sure. Btw, Rie. 
- What?

- I'm invited Hinata go with us.

- Okay. Threesomes are always fun.

"I still feel like there's something wrong. Maybe she's really jealous of me. Just doesn't want to show it. All right, time will tell."
