Jack's POV

*RIIINNNGGGG!!!*

The bell rang, classes were starting, and for the first time, I wasn't late.

"Hey Jack, can we talk later?" King whispered to my ear, I nodded as a respond.

*Time skip, lunch time*

When I was about to leave, King grabbed my hand and brought me to the Janitor's closet.

"Wtf King, why did you brought me here?!" The Janitor's closet was small, I couldn't move well.

"I wanted to talk to you about something, it's about the contest next week" that caught my attention, we have a couple's dance contest here at school.

"I need someone to dance with, could you join me?" He continued.

"W-what?! No way! And besides, it's a boy-girl pair up, why didn't you just ask Queen?"

"Queen was already paired up with Rose. Actually, the rules were changed since only a few girls wanted to join, now you can pair up with anyone you want"

Doing research before acting, typical Spade

"Well, I can't join you, I don't know how to dance" I said, he looked a bit disappointed "But if you want a Joker to dance with, how about asking Cyan?" 

His face lit up "Good idea! Thanks!" He hugged me-

"..."

The door suddenly opened, Akai opened it.

"I-I'll just leave you two-" He slowly backed up, but I ran to him and placed my hands on his shoulders

"Akai, don't think of anything dirty" that was the first thing I said to him

"Too late"

"PHOENIX!"

After explaining everything to Akai

"Oh, I get it" he thought for a while "Wait, there's a contest?"

"Yup, and the prize is the fire heart crystal-" I cut Spade off

"Why didn't you tell me?! I'll be your dance partner!"

Spade: *sweatdrop* 😅

"Too late! I already texted Cyan while you were explaining to Akai,he agreed"

Akai's POV

Jack was having a dark, depressed aura.

"I'll be your dance partner! We'll join the contest together!" Wtf am I saying?!

Jack's face lit up "Really? You would do that?"

"U-umm, yes, for a friend" I smiled at him, he smiled at me too.

He's really cute- WTF?!

"Well, I'll be going. I'm gonna go meet up with Cyan to practice" King waved goodbye to us and left

Joker's POV

*Dismissal time*

I went to my car and drove home. When I got there, I changed into my pajamas since I wasn't planning to go on a heist the entire week.

I was lazing around when my phone vibrated

Akai: Hey Joker, meet me tomorrow at my place, we're going to choose our costumes.

Joker: Sure, what time?

Akai: at 2:00 pm

Akai: A girl named "Ruby Reyes" said she wanted to help us

Akai: do you know her?

Joker: No, but I think I heard that name before

Akai: Anyways, let's meet up tomorrow!

"Mr. Joker! Wake up!" Hachi's voice woke me up "Mr. Phoenix has been texting you nonstop for the past hour, I think you should reply"

Hachi gave me my phone, I looked at the messages-

Akai: Joker?

Akai: hello?

Akai: where are you?

Akai: I'm already here

Akai: never mind, I'll just come pick you up

Wtf?! Why are there 30+ messages here?!

Wait, he's picking me up? When?-

"Ohayōgozaimasu, Joker"

I jumped out of my bed when I saw Phoenix sitting on the floor in front of my bed. He transformed back into his human form then pulled me outside

"Cmon Joker, Ruby's already here!"

I still don't know who's this "Ruby" person is. When we got to the living room, I saw I girl wearing a white polo with a kinda white jacket, black thigh, and a white skirt.

"I'm Ruby Reyes, nice to meet you-" She cut herself off when she saw me "A-Are you Kaitou Jack?!"

I was beyond confused "Umm, yes, that was my Kaitou name when I was a kid"

She froze for a while then her emotion changed from shocked to extremely happy "SENPAI!!" She happily shouted, then gave me a big hug.
