All the crews with Geraldine: CHRISTMAS!

Eevee: So today I am going to set all of you free!

Geraldine: Oh Evelyn! You're the best!

Eevee: Stop the talking and LET'S PARTY!

A/N READ IT BEFORE FLAMING!:

This story is a prequel so it's out of the whole thing, just say that this is real life, not the storyline! Eg. Izumi & Kouji & Kouichi are not so close, that means if they're boy/girl friend they're not in this chapter! Email me in evelyn29125 if you're confused! The only thing that stays is that Takuya & Izumi STILL LIKES EACH OTHER!

I'll include some of my friends here but they only play a minor part.. So stop complaining. Don't worry Takumi will play a very important part here! Geraldine and I are here to make sure Takuya & Izumi will have some great show for all of you readers out there!

*White Christmas*

"The party will start at 7 and end at 12!" Eevee announced. Everybody cheered, "But."

Everybody stopped cheering and stared, "But?"

"All of you had to help me do some shopping!" Eevee answered.

"Well. erm. okay." Everybody sighed, they know this was going to happen, the author wasn't so kind after all...

"This is the list of jobs. Takuya and Izumi will go and buy the ingredients for the feast. Tomoki and JunPei will buy the cake. Kouji and Kouichi will sweep the floor, Geraldine and I will fix the Christmas tree."

"Why do we have to sweep the floor when this is MY house?" Kouji interrupted, "You're so bad at dividing task."

"That's why YOU have to sweep it, you have to mop it as well," Eevee said plainly, pointing at Kouji.

"And WHY do I have to shop with Izumi?" Takuya complained although he's really happy that he could go with Izumi.

" hercarrythewholething!" (Because you have no taste bud Takuya, Izumi knew the right choice while you just have to help her carry the whole thing) Eevee answered in one whole breath, "Let's get cracking now! We have 2 more hours before it start!"

Some cheers and groans could be heard as everybody started doing all their assigned task.

*With Takuya, Tomoki, JunPei & Izumi*

"Hei Izumi! Where are we going?" Takuya asked from behind Izumi.

"Of course the supermarket." Izumi answered plainly.

"How about you Tomoki?" Takuya asked Tomoki who was beside him.

"The cake shop around here, they sell really delicious cakes!" Tomoki answered cheerfully as JunPei drooled, "It's just opposite there, I'll see all of you back at Kouji's house then!"

"Cakes.. Delicious cakes," JunPei who was lost in his thought chanted. Tomoki had to drag him across the road.

Takuya and Izumi laughed at the sight of Tomoki dragging JunPei, their eyes somehow met and both of them looked away, blushing. They continued their journey in a very awkward silence.

*With Eevee, Geraldine, Kouji & Kouichi*

"You know. I am somehow worried of Takuya and Izumi. The readers will be angry if they didn't make some great shows! I think I'll just take a look!" Eevee exclaimed as she stood up and walked towards the door.

"Me too!" Kouji said as he took off his apron and walked after Eevee.

"Why must you follow me? YOU are supposed to finish your job with Kouichi!" Eevee turned back and shouted.

"BecauseifTakuyaandIzumididn' 'treallyhavetodoyour ?" (Because if Takuya and Izumi didn't make any big shows ,the readers will stop reading this story, and this chapter, we are not in a story, this is real life so I don't really have to do your bidding, Is that a good enough reason for you?) Kouji answered in one breathe, Eevee had to wait for 10 seconds before she could finish digesting the words.

"Oh whatever." Eevee shook her head and walked towards the door with Kouji behind her.

"Hei! How about us?" Geraldine and Kouichi shouted. Eevee opened the door and saw three people standing at the doorsteps.

"Hi Eevee!" They chorused.

Eevee grinned and dragged Kim, JL & Hannah inside (A/N They're my friends), "They'll help!" Eevee winked at Geraldine as she ran out of the house with Kouji.

*Back to Takuya & Izumi*

Kouji and Eevee who had caught up with the two had been spying them for about 5 minutes or so.

"Hei Izumi!" We'd already been walking for almost half an hour. Where's the supermarket?" Takuya grumbled, "Just now we've already past about 5 of them!"

"All of those supermarkets don't sell good ingredients for cooking!" Izumi said as Takuya groaned even more.

"Who's the expert at dividing works?" Eevee whispered slyly, giving Kouji the I-win look. Kouji rolled his eyes, "Whatever." Kouji sighed, "Anyway what are we here for? We're supposed to spy on both of them!"

"Hello. Who's the one who started all these?" Eevee whispered angrily, "I did?. Sorry!" Eevee stuck out her tongue and apologized. Kouji rolled his eyes again.

"Stop rolling your eyes!" Eevee complained.

"This is my own eyes so I can do anything I want!" Kouji complained and looked around, "Where's Izumi and Takuya?"

Both of them stopped arguing and looked around, Takuya and Izumi were really gone!

Meanwhile at Kouji's house, the girls were bullying Kouichi.

"Kouichi, pass me that packet of snacks!" Geraldine ordered while watching the TV.

"Kouichi, do my homework!" JL and Kim shouted while watching with Geraldine.

"Kouichi, mop the floor while I finished reading this book!" Hannah screamed, she was reading a book entitle 'English for university' although she's of the same age as the spirit shinkers.

"Yes Madams." Kouichi sighed, 'Why me? It's not fair. stupid Kouji."

*With Takuya & Izumi*

They had entered a supermarket before Kouji and Eevee could realize where they had gone to. Izumi was choosing all the ingredients while Takuya was pushing a VERY HUGE trolley full of ingredients.

"Hei Izumi. When are we going to finish?" Takuya complained.

"Not until we've got all the ingredients needed." Izumi answered plainly as she threw a cabbage that almost hit Takuya's head. Next, she threw a few tomatoes at one go and Takuya caught 'all' of it, except for one. It landed right on his face.

"Ehh! I am sorry Takuya!" Izumi apologized. She took out a handkerchief and started wiping Takuya's face with it. Takuya blushed as Izumi touched his face, Izumi did too. Both of them freeze as their eyes met, inch by inch, both of them get closer every second. All Takumi's fans eyes became as wide as the Powerpuff Girls'. Suddenly.

"There they are!" Eevee shouted as she pointed at the two. Both Takuya and Izumi snapped out of their thought and jumped back, both blushing madly.

"What happened?" Kouji asked as a tomato flew past his head and he dodged it.

"We want TAKUMI!" The Takumi fans jeered.

"Be happy cause Kouji and I are here! We're here to make sure they had some big shows for all Takumi fans out there!" Eevee shouted.

"Thanks to both of you we don't get to see Takuya and Izumi kissed!" All Takumi fans roared with anger. Lots of pies, eggs and tomatoes came flying towards Kouji and Eevee. Eevee got almost all of them while Kouji dodged it effortlessly. Suddenly, a huge watermelon came his way and it hit him. right on his face. Kouji fainted.

"Eevee, Takuya! What are both of you doing here?" Izumi asked, still blushing, "You're supposed to decorate the house!"

"That's why we are here!" Eevee said.

"We're going to but a new table cloth but we just can't decide which colour we should choose!" Kouji who was revived continued, "Why don't you just help us choose one?"

Takuya and Izumi considered for a while before saying, "Red (Takuya)/ Purple (Izumi)"

Takuya and Izumi looked at each other before saying again, "Red (Izumi)/ Purple (Takuya)"

Takuya and Izumi stared at each other again before saying, "Up to Takuya/ Izumi!"

"Then I'll take red (Takuya)/ purple (Izumi)" Both of them said again. Eevee and Kouji grinned as they watched the two 'flirting' away.

Finally, they decided on a white one instead after a long 10 minutes.

All Takumi fans: *jeer! And started throwing more pies and tomatoes*

Kouji grinned while dodging all the pies and tomatoes here and there, "Don't worry! We'll make sure they've great show after this! Just watch out during the party! Kouichi, Geraldine, Eevee & I had really great show coming up!"

Takuya and Izumi stared, "Great shows?"

*Back there at Kouji's house*

Everybody had finished their tasks and it's left to the cooking part!

"Hei. who's gonna do the cooking?" JunPei asked.

"All of us. We'll divide tasks again." Eevee answered and JunPei snorted, "Takuya and Kouji don't know how to cook!"

"But they'll still help. Now listen here! Takuya and Izumi will do the drinks, JunPei and Tomoki will do the desserts, Geraldine Kim and JL will cut the vegetables and stuffs (A/N Yeah. Because Geraldine and the rest can't cook.:P) Hannah and Kouichi will cook while Kouji and I will just have to. rest. Because both of us are really lousy at cooking!" Eevee exclaimed and went to sit by the couch beside Kouji while the rest complained.

"SHUT UP AND START DOING UNLESS YOU WANT ME TO DRIVE ALL OF YOU OUT OF MY HOUSE!" Eevee shouted while Kouji sweat dropped, "This is my house."

So they started doing, because we were focusing on Takuya and Izumi, let's go and see what's happening.

"Hei Izumi! What drinks are we going to make?" Takuya asked while bringing her the glass.

"I am not sure actually." Izumi answered plainly with her eyes closed, she's thinking very hard! Takuya sweat dropped.

"Let's just make apple juice!" Izumi exclaimed, "It's the simplest of the simplest!" Izumi picked up the glass and placed it on the table.

"Hei Izumi. I don't know how." Takuya admitted.

"Just watch me do it!" Izumi answered, giving Takuya a you-are-not-much- help-at-all look. Izumi was about to slit open the packet when she cut herself accidentally. Blood was gushing out of her wound. Takuya who saw this immediately went for her 'rescue?'

"Are you all right Izumi?" Takuya asked holding her cut finger.

"Just a cut, I'll be all right." Izumi answered smiling. For the third time, their eyes met and both of them looked away again, blushing.

"Come on, I'll bandage your wound before it get worse!" Takuya said, not looking at Izumi as he went to get the bandage and started bandaging Izumi's cut with care.

"Hei Takuya! I don't know you know how to bandage wound!" Izumi said.

"I learnt it myself, I always got cuts and bruises when I was very young," Takuya answered and Izumi started giggling. 'She looked so cute when she giggles!' Takuya thought as he pressed Izumi's wound that made Izumi yelped.

"Takuya!" Izumi shouted, "That hurts!" Takuya snapped out of his thought and continued bandaging Izumi's cut.

After a long one hour, Everybody finished their jobs and they could start the feast now!

"You know. I suggest we play a game!" Eevee exclaimed while munching her food.

"Truth and Dare!" Geraldine continued.

"Okay..." Everybody agreed so they start.

"I'll start first! Kim, truth or dare?" Eevee asked.

"Errmmm.. Truth?" Kim answered.

'Great!' Eevee grinned, "Now is the time! Kim! TELL ME YOUR MARK FOR LITERATURE THE OTHER TIME!"

"WHAT?" Kim shouted, "Oh well.. Since it's a truth. My mark is 7.5/10! HAPPY? Now KOUJI!"

"I'll choose truth!"

"Have you ever thought Takuya is very reckless, rush and so on and so forth?" Takuya's eyebrow started to twitch as he waited for Kouji's answer

"Of course! He's not only rush and reckless, he's also dumb, stupid, ignorant." Kouji answered almost immediately but was interrupted by Takuya pouncing on him.

"KOUJI!" Takuya shouted as he tried to strangle Kouji.

"Hei stop it Takuya!" Izumi shouted and Takuya stopped immediately and went back to his seat.

Kouji was massaging his throat, "My turn. Hannah! Truth or dare?"

Hannah looked up from her book, "Yes? Erm. I'll choose truth as I am afraid that if I am supposed to do a dare, all of you will ask me to throw away this book." Everybody sweat dropped.

"Anyway. Hannah! Can you tell us how many books had you read?" Kouji asked.

Hannah considered for a while before answering 'infinity', "When I was one year old, I had read all the secondary one textbook and when I was two, I had finished reading all the secondary two textbooks and so on and so forth. Now I am reading my parents' university notes!" Everybody sweat dropped again and Hannah went back to her book.

"Erm. Hannah, it's your turn." JL said after all of them had been waiting for 5 minutes.

"All right then. Geraldine!" Hannah shouted from behind her book.

"I'll choose dare!" Geraldine answered.

"I dare you to start reading all your secondary two textbooks now!" Hannah answered plainly.

"But where's the books?"

"In my bag, don't stop till you finish it!" Hannah answered, not looking at Geraldine. Tears rolled down Geraldine's cheek as she started reading the books, 'I hate studying!' , "All right then *sniff*, JunPei! *sniff*"

"Yes? I'll choose dare!" JunPei shouted as he stuffed some more food into his mouth, "I know all of you want me to kiss Izumi in front of you!"

"Then you're wrong JunPei, I dare you to give me all your share of food!" Geraldine shouted as she took all JunPei's plate that made JunPei. cried. awwww.. Stop crying JunPei.

"Tomoki! Truth or dare?" JunPei asked.

"Dare!" Tomoki answered almost immediately although he knew that JunPei will take all his food if he chose dare.

"Take off that mushroom-like hat for the rest of the game!" JunPei answered, smirking.

"WHAT? I never took it out unless I am bathing or sleeping, the rest of the time, it's always with me! I'd been wearing it for about 5 years! And now you want me to take it off?" Asked a wide-eyed Tomoki.

"Yes! And do it now!" JunPei shouted as he took off Tomoki's hat and chucked it into the dustbin.

'Just wait and see JunPei! I'll get you back after the game!" Tomoki thought, giving JunPei a you-are-dead look, "Takuya-oniichan!"

"Ermm.. Truth?" Takuya answered.

"Tell me whether you like Izumi from the start!" Tomoki said, grinning. Everybody stared at Takuya and waited for his reply. Izumi was blushing very hard.

" " Takuya said in one breath softly, he was blushing madly.

"I can't hear!" Tomoki shouted. Takuya had no choice but to repeat his answer again, "I LIKE IZUMI ORIMOTO, HAPPY?" Everybody grinned at one another except for Izumi who was looking at the ground.

"Now Kouichi!" Takuya shouted, still blushing.

"I'll choose dare?" Kouichi answered.

"Ok then go put your head in the dustbin now!" Takuya shouted, pointing at the dustbin.

"WHAT?" Kouichi answered as he walked towards the dustbin reluctantly, 'Takuya must really be in a bad mood!'

"Do I really have to do this?" Kouichi complained.

"YES!" Takuya shouted back. Kouichi sighed and placed his. .it. for. a second.

"HAPPY?" Kouichi asked walking back towards the table, his hair was very messy that made everybody rolled with laughter.

"STOP LAUGHING AND NOW JL!" Kouichi shouted.

"Ermmm. yeah? I choose truth?" JL answered.

"Tell me! Out of all of us who do you like and hate most?" Kouichi asked.

"Ermm. I like Kouichi best cause he's really grown up although I liked Kouji last time. I think JunPei is the worst cause he's a BIG FAT PIG!"

'Am I that likeable that everybody hate me?' JunPei thought.

"So now. Eevee!" JL shouted.

"I'll choose truth! Although I hate JL's a lot." Eevee sighed.

"What do you think of Kouji?" JL asked, grinning. Kouichi nudged Kouji at his ribs.

"He's my favourite character out of all anime that I've seen. He's cute, his bandana his cool and stuffs." Eevee answered, shrugging, "I am his fan- girl that's all."

Everybody sweat dropped.

"Now is my turn again. bwahahahaha. The last one. IZUMI!" Eevee shouted.

"A dare?"

"I dare you to strip your clothes and kissed Takuya for 10 seconds at the same time!" Eevee smirked.

Both Takuya and Izumi blushed again, "Hei wait! That's two dare!" Izumi snapped.

"I say at the same time. so?" Eevee grinned. Izumi looked as if she's gonna die anytime.

All Takumi fans: Quick! Do it!

Izumi took off her clothes reluctantly, blushing madly. All the guys looked away except for JunPei and Takuya of course. He's supposed to do the dare.

So Izumi walked towards Takuya and both of them inched closer until they could hear each other's breath.

All Takumi fans: *Watched with eyes not blinking.*

Takuya wrapped his hand around Izumi's waist and pressed his lips against hers. This time the guys turned back and watched, along with the authors (Including Hannah).

10 seconds had past but Takuya and Izumi were still kissing.

"They're kissing too long!" Kim whispered.

"I think they're enjoying it!" Kouji whispered back, grinning. So the Takumi fans were not going to kill both him and Eevee after all.

"NO! MY IZUMI!" JunPei cried.

"Shut your mouth up JunPei!" JL snapped and watched although she's a Kouzumi fan, so was Eevee.

"This is disgusting!" Hannah commented and went back to her book, "Come on Gerry! You haven't completed your dare yet!" Hannah dragged Geraldine to the living room while the rest continued watching.

Finally, after 1 minute, Takuya and Izumi pulled away, both of them breathing very hard.

"So is it already 10 seconds?" Izumi asked.

Eevee grinned, "Yeah. but for your interest sake, it's more than 10 seconds, it's 1 minute! Bwahaha!"

Izumi looked as if she's gonna die, "WHY DIDN'T YOU ASK ME TO STOP?"

"Because it seems to me that both of you are enjoying it very much!" Eevee smirked while Takuya and Izumi blushed furiously.

"Takuya and Izumi sitting under a tree." Eevee grinned.

"Kissing." Geraldine continued and both Takuya and Izumi started chasing after both of them.

After the party had ended and everybody was happy, they started clearing up while Takuya and Izumi were in the balcony, alone. Both of them not looking at each other.

"You know Izumi." Takuya started, "I am really sorry about just now."

"About we kissing?" Izumi asked. Takuya nodded.

"It's all right." Izumi smiled, "But I want to know something."

"What thing?" Takuya asked, still both of them not looking at each other.

"Is it true that you really like me?" Izumi asked, blushing.

"Well. it's true. I really do like you." Takuya smiled, "But if you don't like me." Takuya said but was silenced by Izumi kissing him.

"What are you talking about Takuya? I like you? Of course I do!" Izumi squealed as she hugged Takuya.

Both of them looked into each other's eyes before they inched closer for another kiss, this time longer.

"Hei stop pushing!" Kim shouted.

"Sorry." Kouichi apologized.

"Finally they admitted their feelings for each other!" Kouji exclaimed.

"Yeah! And we won't die anymore!" Eevee continued.

"For now. Shall we let them have some peace alone?" JL asked and all of them closed the door leading to the balcony.

"Geraldine! Don't look left and right! STUDY!" Hannah ordered.

"I HATE STUDYING!" Geraldine shouted.

***

Eevee: Yep! That's all for today and tune in for the real story in chapter 3!

Kouji: Yeah yeah yeah. In that chapter we (Kouichi & I) are going to be EVIL bwahahaha!
