Can Rivalry Lead To Love?

Chapter 10: "The Welcome Party" (Part 4)

Asta's POV:
Noelle looked at me with a shocked face.

"Asta! What are you doing here?!"

I chuckled, "To get you of course." I then walked over and pulled her out the door and towards the elevator.

"Hey! Let go! Where are we going?!" Noelle said struggling to loosen the grip I had on her hand.

I turned and watched Mimosa and Yuno run after us.

"Hey, Asta slow down a bit!" Yuno said loudly.

I ran into the elevator and pressed the 1st floor button.

It rang 2 minutes later and the doors opened.

"Were going to a partyyyy!" I said happily with tears of joy.

"I-i still don't see what that has to do with me!" Noelle said with a red face.

"Well it's a long story......but i'll explain when we get there!" I said and ran out the elevator with her hand holding mine.

We all ran to the fountain in the courtyard and I finally let go of Noelle's hand.

Yuno's POV:

Jeezz Asta. You didn't have to run all the way here...

"Ok! So Noelle! Me and Yuno are going to Leopold Vermillion's party tonight and we need your help!"

Noelle sighed.

"So what do you want me to do?" Noelle asked and looked to the side.

"I want you to say the word 'transporto'." Asta stated.

Noelle looked at him for a moment.

"That's it?"

"Yep."

"So your telling me you yanked me here, out of my room, and made me run, all the way here....to say one magic word?" Noelle said with an irritated face.

"Yep."

There was a pause.

"WHY CAN'T YOU SAY IT YOURSELF?!" Noelle yelled in Asta's ear.

"Because i have no magic! And it won't work for people with out magic an-" Asta whinned.

"WHAT ABOUT YUNO?!" Noelle interupted.

"It won't work for any magic user....the person has to have water magic...." Asta said.

Noelle stopped and took a deep breath.

"Well you called on the wrong person. I can't control my magic..."

"What?!" Asta stated.

How is that even possible?

"Noelle..please! I'm beggining you! Please try! I really, really, really want to go to this party!" Asta got down on his hands and knees and begged.

"I... Fine. I'll try. But u can't say that I didn't warn you!"

"Also, your gonna have to take me and Mimosa with you!"

Asta nodded.

She turned and took a deep breath then exhaled.

"Transporto!"

The water formed into a ball and launched forwards at us.

"Eh?!"

"What!"

"Brace yourself!" Noelle stated.

The water ball came right at us.

Asta's POV:
I opened my eyes to us being in a ball, actually the same waterball that I thought could have murdered me.

The ball started to glow and then it dissapeared for a second and next thing I knew we were at a forest.

The ball popped and turned into waterdroplets raining down on us.

"Yes! We made it!" I looked around.

"Eh?" Where is the party?" I asked in confusion.

I looked to Noelle who had the invitation in her hand reading it.

"It says her that you will have to walk on this path..."

"Let's have a race!" I said excitingly.

"But Asta..we don't know the distance it is from here to the party..." Mimosa said.

"Well we will just have to find out!" I said and winked.

Mimosa blushed.

Yuno's POV:

Whatever you do Yuno...DON'T GET JEALOUS. Make it through. You can punish him later for showing people his cute side...just endure it.

I sighed.

"Why not?"

"Huh?!" Mimosa and Noelle said at the same time.

"I'll race you Asta but, whoever wins gets what we betted before."

Asta beamed, "Deal!"

"Ready....set...GO!" Asta counted down.

We all ran and stayed on the path.

Eventually we heard loud noises, it sounded like people talking and laughing, having fun.

The entrance came into sight.

Come on....the entrance to the party is right there. I have to win this!

I sped up and raced ahead of Asta.

I landed at the entrance and touched it.

Asta came right next to me.

"Looks like I win." I stated holding his chin up to my face.

We made it to the party.
