Chapter 2
Stein looked Lance over and writ something down. “Is she going to be ok?” asked Tsubaki. “Yeah, she recovers quickly” replied Stein. *Just like Black*star* thought Tsubaki with a smirk. “I’m sorry about that, I don’t go easy on anyone” said Black*star. Stein smirked as Lance sat on the edge of the bed. Black*star and Tsubaki turned around to see Lance bitting her thumb. “You were going easy on me anyway so don’t apologise” Lance said with a smirk. Black*star became angry and picked up Lance by the collar of her jacket. “Oh and professor thanks for giving me my jacket and knife back” said Lance still staring at Black*star smirking. “It’s ok Lance” replied Stein. “Don’t underestimate me” growled Black*star. “Same” said Lance with a smirk. “Put her down Black*star she’s trying to start trouble” said Tsubaki putting a hand on his shoulder. Black*star let go and dropped down on her feet. “Can I go professor?” asked Lance. “Yes you may” replied Stein. She moved close to Black*star and whispered in his ear “If you want to claim your prize come get me” then she put a piece of paper in his hand and ran off. “What does she mean?” asked Tsubaki. “We made a bet. If she won she could dissect me. If I won I could do whatever I wanted to her” replied Black*star. He opened the piece of paper. Her address was written on it. “That’s down the road from where we are” said Tsubaki. Black*star stared at the paper for a while before Tsubaki snapped him back to reality. “Are you ok Black*star?” asked Tsubaki with a worried look on her face. “Y-yeah, I’m f-fine” stuttered Black*star. Tsubaki smiled and he smiled back. He put the piece of paper in his pocket and followed Tsubaki out of the infirmary.
As they walked home Black*star looked at the address. “This might be my only chance to kiss a girl” he said. “I’m sure plenty of girls like you, you can get a kiss the normal way” replied Tsubaki. “Like who?” said Black*star. Tsubaki thought for a while then looked at Black*star with a reassuring smile. “Just don’t make any rash decisions” said Tsubaki. Black*star nodded and went back to looking at the address. When they got home Black*star sat the address on the coffee table and went to have a shower. He washed off the maker but only light grey lines were left. He shrugged and got dressed in his pyjamas. “Black*star dinner is ready” shouted Tsubaki from the kitchen. “Ok” he yelled back. Tsubaki sat the food on a small table and kneeled down beaming up at Black*star. He sat down frowning. “Are you ok?” said Tsubaki. Black*star nodded. They ate dinner in silence then Black*star got up and cleared the table in silence. After he was finished he picked up the piece of paper from the coffee table and stared at it. He smirked and walked to the door, Tsubaki heard it open. “Where are you going?” she asked. “Over to Lance’s house” he replied with a blank expression. “Please don’t regret what you’re doing” said Tsubaki with a frown. Black*star nodded. He walked out the door and shut it behind him leaving Tsubaki with a frown on her face.
Black*star walked down the street and knocked on Lance’s door. “Wait a sec” yelled Lance from behind the door. “God damn it, where are my panties?” she yelled to herself causing Black*star to blush. Eventually she opened the door wearing a short black nightie. “Hello Star boy, come to claim your prize?” she said with a smirk. Black*star nodded. He grabbed lance’s wrist. He dragged her to his house. She pulled her hand from his grip and opened the door. She bowed when she saw Tsubaki. “Hey Lance” she said with a smile. “Follow me” said Black*star as he guided her to his room. She sat at the edge of the bed. “Lance, may I kiss you?” he asked. “If that’s what you want” she replied. Black*star lifted her chin and kissed her gently. She didn’t kiss back. He put more pressure on her lips but she didn’t kiss back. He pulled away to see her smirking. “Why won’t you kiss me?” he asked. “I said you could do whatever you wanted, it didn’t mean that I had to let you enjoy it” she said. Black*star felt hurt and the pain was all over his face. Lance got up and walked to the front door. “Bye Tsubaki” she said with an evil smile. *What has she done?* thought Tsubaki as Lance left. Tsubaki walked in to Black*star’s room to see him crying. She gave him a comforting hug and he hugged back sobbing into her shoulder. “It’ll be ok” she said in a reassuring tone.
