《W A R N I N G: Hatsume on her Shipper's mode》

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

'School Mystery Number Three who resides in the other side of the mirror... It's already been 3 days since I was forced out of the mirror world.'

Yashiro Nene thought as she played with her hamster, Black Canyon. It was night time, Yashiro was already on her pajamas and was getting ready for bed.

'I'm glad I was able to return safely but... Mitsuba-kun... The spirit boy who Hatsume-chan and I met in Number Three's domain... Cute yet arrogant...

But he tried to protect me and Hatsume-chan... But because of Tsukasa-kun, He became number three of the school mystery.'

Yashiro shivered at the thought of Mitsuba being alone with Hanako's younger twin brother. 'Will he be okay with him? I'm sure Hatsume-chan and Kou-kun are worried about him too...'

'Kou-kun said that he and Mitsuba used to be friends.

As soon as we returned from the hell mirrors, This is what Kou-kun told us about Mitsuba-kun...'

"That kid... Even though he's a ghost, he's my friend." Kou said as he leaned on the second stall door inside the bathroom. Yashiro, Hatsume and Hanako listened to him closely. "....But I already lost him once... Because I couldn't help him..."

Kou look down as his eyes held pain. "I thought I'd never see him again, but well... We did meet again."

Yashiro felt a pain in her chest as she saw Kou gave her a pained grin. "Ah, It's kinda hard to explain! Now that he gone off with that Tsukasa though..."

Yashiro looked back at the two ghost couple only to see them stared worriedly towards the leaving blonde Exorcist.

Gripping her school bag tightly, Yashiro ran after him. "Kou-kun..."

"About that kid..." Kou looked back at his senpai and gave her a bright smile. "I'll figure something out. I'll be fine!"

'After talking about Mitsuba-kun... Kou smiled like that. But...'

Yashiro layed down on her bedroom floor as she stared at her hamster with much pain in her eyes.

She really wished that she could help him out in any way...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yashiro sighed, not bothering to listen towards her sensei's lecture. She was still bothered at the memory of her beloved kouhai's pained smile.

"What's the matter?" Hanako grinned as he appeared upside down. Hatsume floated next to her with a fond smile.

Their sudden appearance made the white and green haired girl scream in shock.

"Wow Yashiro, Your voice is so loud." Hanako teased.

"Nene-chan, everyone is looking at you." Hatsume sweatdropped.

Snapping back into reality, her whole class was indeed staring at her with a weirded out look. Yashiro blushed in embarrasement as she quickly sat down.

"Why are you two here?" Yashiro whispered.

"We just wanted to see you~" Hanako answered with a teasing tone.

Hatsume nodded. "Well after the whole incident, we just wanted to know if you're alright."

"Well, I'm alright, Hatsume-chan. You don't have to worry." Yashiro assured. "But can you two be quiet? I'm in class."

Aoi watched from her desk as her bestfriend talked to thin air. 'Nene-chan... She's talking to herself, again...'

"So? What were you thinking?" Hanako asked as he began playing with Yashiro's hair. Yashiro sighed and began writing on her notebook. The ghostly duo watched her with curiosity.

'I think something is wrong with Kou-kun.' Yashiro wrote.

"Now that you mention it, he was a little sad when I saw him earlier..." Hatsume said as she thought about the young exorcist.

"Why?" Hanako asked. Yashiro wrote again.

'Because he were friends with Mitsuba-kun. I think it would feel really lonely if a friend forgets you.'

"W-well, I would be upset if a friend suddenly forget me..." Hatsume muttered, she then squealed when Hanako hugged her.

"Don't worry, Hatsu-chan! I love you too much to forget you, anyways!" Hanako grinned as he saw her cheeks flushed. He pecked her lips making her turn even redder.

'Is there something we can do to cheer him up? Do you two have any ideas?' Yashiro wrote. She would have fangirled when she saw how Hanako pecked her friend, but she was too sad to do so.

Hanako blinked when he saw the look of his girlfriend's eyes. Her pupils seems to have shaped into stars. He sweatdropped. He knew what's going on with her.

"NENE-CHAN! I KNOW WHAT YOU NEED TO DO!" Yashiro almost screamed when Hatsume grabbed both of her shoulders with a crazed look in her eyes. "TAKE HIM ON A DATE! THAT WILL CHEER HIM UP!"

"Now, Now...Hatsu-chan. Move away from the daikon..." Hanako quickly moved her away. He then brought a mirror and showed Yashiro the hairstyle he made. "It's finished~

Artisty!"

This time, Yashiro screamed. As she quickly stood up from her desk in complete shock. Her classmates stared at her in silence.

But once they saw her weird cone shaped hairstyle... In which Hanako called 'The Miracle Ascending Daikon'

They all laughed.

"Yashiro-san, Please save your makeovers after class..." Yashiro's sensei scolded which she shakingly answered "Yes, sir..."

Aoi could only watched her worriedly. "N-nene-chan..."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Yashiro, I said I was sorry!" Hanako begged as he rubbed a giant swelling bump on his head. Hatsume gave him a menacing glare as she threateningly held a frying pan behind him.

Yashiro "Hmph!" Still ignoring the male seventh mystery as she stirred a batter in a bowl. It was her third period, Home economics and they were baking a cake.

"I wonder where the sugar is." Yashiro said as she walked away from Hanako. Hatsume trailed behind her.

"Here." Akane gave her a bag then noticed the two seventh mystery behind her. "How long are you two staying, Honorable Lord and Lady No. 7?"

He made sure that he asked with a soft tone. He knew that to never make Hatsume cry or be frightened after a terrible experience he had with Teru. He almost shudder at the thought.

"Oh, No. 1..." Hanako greeted him, Hatsume gave him a small sincered smile. The orange haired boy returned the gesture and threw a batter at the ghost boy.

"Ahhh, I thought I sense someone perverted around Ao-chan. I saw you during class. Stay atleast 5 meters away from Ao-chan or I'll kill you, Honorable Lord no. 7." Akane said in his nicest tone as possible. He then placed his bowl next to Yashiro's and turned towards her. "I heard you saying something about Minamoto."

"There's something going on... I've been trying to think of a way to cheer him up." Yashiro answered.

"Is that so?" Akane said, not really interested.

'Akane-kun is a boy too... He might be more helpful than Hanako-kun!' Yashiro thought as she stared at Akane. 'Hatsume-chan has
great ideas too! But she's been trying to hook me up with Kou-kun! He' NOT even my type, though!'

"Akane-kun, do you have anything in mind?" Yashiro asked gaining the orange haired boy's attention. "Like something that works to cheer you up?"

"Me?" Akane asked. He then looked at Aoi with a lovestrucked look. "I'm happy as long as Ao-chan is alive..."

"Maybe you shouldn't listen to this guy..." Hanako sweatdropped.

"Yeah! Nene-chan, I have a better idea!" Hatsume exclaimed but her assistant waved her off which she puffed her cheeks in fustration.

"But this isn't about me, It'd about Minamoto, right?" Akane continued. "In that case, why don't you give him what you're making now?"

Yashiro jolted up and stared at the unfinished cupcakes she was making. "What I'm making now... It's not bad right?"

"IT'S NOT BAD!!" Hatsume finally snapped making Hanako, Yashiro, and Akane flinched. "I'VE BEEN TRYING TO GRAB YOUR ATTENTION FOR THE PAST 30 MINUTES! GIVE HIM THAT CUPCAKE AND INVITE HIM TO THAT!"

Yashiro sweatdropped as she then turn towards where Hatsume was pointing. Her eyes lightened up and quickly approached the flyer.

"Finally!" Hatsume huffed. Akane sweatdropped. Hanako floated towards Yashiro to try and read the flyer too.

"You're really determined on getting Minamoto and Yashiro-san together, aren't you, Honorable Lady no. 7?" Akane asked amused. The female seventh mystery nodded furiosly her eyes shaped like stars.

"Ofcourse! They look cute together!" Hatsume squealed. "Kou-kun already have a crush on Nene-chan. All it's left is for her to fall for him!"

Akane noticed something off witg the female supernatural. She was smiling towards her other half.

But her eyes were seems.... Sad..

"Honorable Lady no. 7.... Are you..." Akane trailed off when Hatsume gave him a sad look. "Upset of something?"

Hatsume smiled at him. "It's nothing, Akane-san... I'm just planning on how Nene-chan will deliver her invitation to Kou-kun..."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The after school bell finally rang. Kou's friends, Yakoo and Satou finally left their classroom.

"What about Kou?" Satou asked as he and Yokoo walked away.

"He said to leave without him." Yokoo sighed worried about his friend.

Kou quietly sat on his desk as he was in deep thought. The burden weight on his shoulders were heavy. Especially when he knew the fates of the two people close to him.

'Yashiro is dying....'

'I want to become a normal human...'

Kou really want to change their fates, but he was just a mortal. An exorcist that fight off supernatural, nothing more than that.

Just as he was still busy with his thoughts a wrapped up present came smacking him in the face, making him look around frantically. "What?! An a attack?!"

"Delivery!"

The second minamoto look down to see a three mokke dressed up in a delivery outfit as one was standing on a makeshift cardboard car.

"Mokke?!" Kou looked at them, sweatdropping.

"Our first delivery!"

"We'll deliver anything!"

"Leave it to us!"

"You're delivering something?" Kou asked as he crouch down to their level.

"Lady Seventh's Mokke deliveries at your service!" The Mokke exclaimed in unison. They even handed him a business card and receipt that Kou obviously knew that was written by Hatsume herself. He knew her handwritings after he saw her writing something once.

"A delivery? That thing that just flew in?" Kou asked as he look towards the gift at his desk. He began to open it.

It was a fresh batch of two piece of cupcakes along a piece of candy and paper. Kou then opened the closed paper and saw his senpai's handwritings.

'ɪ ᴍᴀᴅᴇ ᴛʜɪs ɪɴ ᴄᴏᴏᴋɪɴɢ ᴄʟᴀss
ʜᴏᴘᴇ ʏᴏᴜ ʟɪᴋᴇ ɪᴛ
~ɴᴇɴᴇ'

This made Kou smile and blush. "Senpai..."

A rolled up flyer was then came flying and smacked him again in the face.

"There's one more." The mokke said as they all hopped on their cardboard car that was obviously made by Hatsume. "Everything has been delivered. See you next time!"

Kou sweatdropped as he watched them leave. "What the..."

"What's this paper?" He began to unrolled it. His face flushed red as he read the flyer and another of Yashiro's note. "Eh?! This..."

Funfact: Ever since they started dating, Hanako haven't taken Hatsume out on a date, yet! Which is why she was a little sad but still determined to make Yashiro and Kou date each other.

Up next is their double date and the Yashiro time travel chapter! We'll see how the boys react to both of them in a beautiful Kimono! ;)
