Kurea-Chan: Hi guys! It's me again, I bet you guys are sick of all my Teen Titans stories! I have, like, nine of them! But this is an original manga series I've been writing, and I decided to post it on fanfiction! Enjoy you guys!

Tunao Kitsune sat down at a empty lunch table. She was soon joined by her best friend, Habuto Yuki. Both girls were in their second year of high school.

Kitsune was a very shy girl, who stood at about five foot one. She had ginger hair that hid half her face. Square-lenses sat perched on her nose, allowing her horrible sight to be better. Her emerald green eyes darted around nervously.

Yuki was almost the complete oppisite; she was a very happy-go-lucky kind of girl. She had shoulder length icy-blue hair with sapphire eyes.

Yuki glanced around the cafeteria, and spotted a familiar figure. His blazing hazel eyes darted around the cafeteria, and shaggy black hair covered half his face. Blood red streaks wove their way between his black strands of hair. "Kitsune-chan," Yuki started loudly, "isn't that Tajiri-san, the guy you've had a crush on since we were in eighth grade?"

"Not so loud, Yuki-chan!" Kitsune's face reddened as she spazzed out. "I...I don't want him yo hear us!"

Suddenly, a boy with ash-blonde hair and bright blue eyes walked over to the two friends. "Hey girls, what's up?"

He happened to be Yuki's boyfriend, Ojiro Tadese. He was the same year as the two girls, and he was always acting silly.

"I'm going to our dorm, Yuki-chan," Kitsune stood up, grabbing her books and exited the cafeteria. Her face was still a deep red, as she wound her way in the halls. She rounded the corner and bumped into something. Or someone.

Kitsune fell over, now on her knees. Her glasses fell from her face and her books scattered everywhere. She quickly found her glasses and shoved them onto her face. Kitsune looked up, her emerald eyes widening.

Before her, stood Tajiri Daichi.

Her face must've turned twenty different shades of red as he held out his hand. "Need help?" a monotone coiled around his voice. She hesitantly grabbed his hand and he pulled her up with ease.

"I'm Tajiri Daichi," he said, again, a monotone disguised any feeling he had.

Kitsune's eyes widened the slightest bit more. "I...I know-I mean, I'm Kitsune!" she stammered.

Daichi cocked his eyebrow at her. "Right..." he said slowly. "Well, bye Kitsune-san."

In some other random hallway, Tadese and Yuki walked side by side.

"Hey Tadese-kun..." Yuki started.

"What's up?" he asked as they walked along.

"Are you friends with Tajiri Daichi-san?" she quickly asked him.

Tadese nodded and then cocked his head at her. "Yeah, why?"

Yuki sighed. "Kitsune-chan has had a crush on him and she's too scared to talk to him."

Tadese nodded slowly. "So, do you want me to talk to him?"

Yuki's face lit up with a smile. "Could you please? But don't mention her name, or she will kill me!"

"'Course! I actually share a dorm with him, so it'll be easy," he winked at Yuki, and pecked her cheek with a kiss. "See ya later, Yuki-chan."

Yuki said her farewell, and Tadese walked into his dorm. He greeted Daichi with a smile. "Hola mi amigo!"

"Uh, hi?" Daichi cocked his eyebrow at Tadese.

Tadese quickly looked at his desk. A flyer for a dance was on top of a pile of papers. The date for it read March fifteenth; tomorrow.

"Daichi-senpai, there's a dance tomorrow!" Tadese lit up.

Daichi sighed. "I'm not going I don't have a date..."

"That's ok! I found this really cut girl for yo-"

"Don't you have a girlfriend?" Daichi cut him off.

Tadese smacked his forehead and sighed. "Not for me-for you!"

Daichi's hazel eyes lit up in an angry flame. "If you set me up for a blind date, I swear to God..."

"Yup, I did!" Tadese's lips twitched into an evil smirk. Daichi lunged forward and grasped Tadese's neck.

"I am going to murder you!" he screeched. Tadese somehow got out of his grip, and evily smirked at his black-haired friend.

"Better get an outfit, it's a 'masquerade'."

Kitsune woke up the next morning to Yuki's voice. She rubbed her eyes and pushed her glasses onto the bridge of her nose. She stood up and walked over to Yuki.

"Really, Tadese-kun?! Oh she'll be so happy! Bye," Yuki hung up the phone and turned around. She jumped when she saw Kitsune standing behind her. Yuki placed her hand over her heart. "Geez, you scared me, Kitsune-chan!"

"Who's gonna be happy about what?" Kitsune ignored Yuki's statement.

"Guess who's got a date with Daichi-san?" Yuki smiled.

Kitsune's eyes widened. "No way! You got me a date with Daichi-san?!"

Yuki nodded happily and did a little happy dance. "You two are gonna look so cute together at the dance tonight! It's a 'masquerade'."

Kitsune contemplated this for a bit. "We can make my glasses into a mask. But I don't have any nice dresses..."

"You can borrow now of mine! I really don't mind if you do," Yuki exclaimed.

Kitsune smiled. "Yes!"

In Daichi and Tadese's dorm, things didn't go as smoothly.

Daichi scratched his head in confusion. "So, what do we wear to this, 'masquerade'?"

Tadese face-palmed and shook his head. "Oh geez...there's much you need to learn, young padiwan." Tadese paused to let out a sigh. "Just wear something nice. And remember, you gotta wear a mask."

"Well sorry, it's not my fault that I've never been on a date before," Daichi retorted.

Tadese narrowed his eyes. "It kinda is..." he mumbled, only for himself.

Daichi gave him the evil eye and slapped him. "Are you calling me unattractive?!"

"Ow, and no..." Tadese winced as he lightly caressed his now red face. He continued with another mumble, "But you might be abusive..."

"What did you just say?!" Daichi glared at him.

Tadese narrowed his eyes at him. "You know, I really hope you don't act like this around girls!"

"Me either..." Daichi sighed.

You see, Daichi had a very rough history with girls. The closest he ever got to one was when he was paired up with a girl for his lab partner in science class. He sighed as he pulled on a dress shirt.

Over by our two favorite girls, Yuki pulled on her mask and looked to Kitsune with a smile. Kitsune looked down at herself and sighed. She turned towards a mirror and gazed at herself. Kitsune let out another sigh.

"I look really bad, Yuki-chan..." she looked at her feet.

Yuki placed her hand on her hip and gave Kitsune an are-you-kidding-me? look. "Kitsune-chan, to be honest, you look a heck of a lot better than me! At least you don't look like a ninja!"

Yuki was right; she wore a kimono-style dress that stopped about three inches above her knee. White boots covered her leg up to her knees, and her mask tied around her head, much like a ninja's mask.

Kitsune on the other hand, wore a simple pink dress that draped off one of her shoulders. A necklace with a heart pendant hung from her neck. Her glasses were decorated with black feathers.

"I guess you're right," Kitsune sighed.

Yuki pulled on Kitsune's arm. "C'mon, we should get going! It's almost eight!"

We now go to the rec hall, with lanterns hanging from the ceiling, casting a soft light down on the teens. A DJ was set up with a few speakers. Daichi nervously looked around, his eyes darting around under his mask. He looked to Tadese, who was also looking around, but for Yuki.

"Are you sure she's coming, Tadese-senpai?" Daichi asked, almost disappointed.

Tadese tried to fake cry. He glanced up at Daichi. "I find it sad that you doubt me," he paused as he spotted Yuki and Kitsune. He pointed to them. "Look, there they are!"

Yuki walked up to the two of them. "Hey guys!" She smiled brightly.

Kitsune hid behind Yuki, and she shyly glanced at Daichi. Tadese pulled her out from behind Yuki, and gently pushed her in front of Daichi. Her face turned beet red as she glanced up at him. Daichi's face also tinted a light shade of red as he looked at Kitsune.

"Daichi-senpai?" Tadese poked him.

Kitsune smiled shyly up at Daichi. "H-hi."

He's here. He's actually here, Kitsune thought, almost breathlessly. And he's here for me.
