Substitute Teacher

Fade's p.o.v.

After everyone got bored of playing Seven minutes in heaven we all split up. The boys went to the ball room while the girls went to shut all the lights off in the house. We decided to play hide and seek in the dark. The boys had to find the girls. Their going to count to fifty. The girls decided to make things interesting so we split up into three groups. Team one: Liz and Patti, Team two: Noire and I, Team two: Maka and Tsubaki. Noire and I split up and went to Lord Death's study and I got her to hide under his desk while I hid behind the couch and we waited to be found. When we were found (by Tsubaki and Maka because they ended up being found first and had to count then find everyone else) we played a few more rounds before a Stein and Spirit told us to get some rest since we had school early in the morning. We all laid down on the pallets in the ball room and I waited until Black Star passed out then I pranked him by putting shaving cream on his hand and I tickled him with a feather on his face making him slap his face and it went everywhere waking him up. He thought it was whip cream and tried to eat it but that ended badly... I went to sleep after he went back to sleep and woke up early in the morning to the smell of bacon and I went to the kitchen seeing Stein and Spirit up and cooking. They didn't notice me so I listened in on their conversation.

"No I don't think you are a bad cook Stein I swear!"

"Yes you do! Don't talk to me right now!"

"Fine, I will talk to my Maka doll instead. Next time I get lonely I wont pay you another visit I will go...someplace else."

"Don't be that way Spirit. I am ok with you coming over, but spitting my cooking out into the trash is another thing."

"I told you I don't like eggs!"

"Then eat some bacon! I didn't make you eat the eggs! If I had, I wouldn't be so upset about it! That Maka doll isn't worth your time! I'm better company, and I know you like coming over to try to get me drunk sometimes."

"Hey, if I don't get you drunk then I never do make it to your bed I end up on the couch or on that table of yours."

"If you wanted to take a nap in my bed, you could have asked. About that, why did you take off your shirt last time?!?"

"To get comfy...Duh."

"You have to be shirtless to do that? I sleep in mine all the time. I even sleep in my lab coat."

"Well usually I sleep only in my boxers so consider yourself lucky."

"If you had chained me up to the bed in your boxers and snuggled up to me, where would you be right now?"

"I don't know, still in your bed chained up?"

"Yes. Exactly, you'd be mine forever. I could experiment on you whenever I wanted."

"So what was all that about in the closet if all you want is to dissect me." Spirit crossed his arms.

"I said you'd be mine forever, didn't I? You wouldn't be able to cheat on me."

"Oh, I knew you would want me like that forever you like my abs don't you?" Spirit lifted his shirt up and noticed a few stitches on his abdomen that looked fresh. My eyes grew big. What is happening? "What the hell STEIN! I told you to stop dissecting me."

"Oh don't worry about it. If you want me Spirit, you have to put up with that."

"This is why I don't live with you." Spirit put his shirt down and grabbed a piece of bacon and ate it.

"You would do weird things to me if you did. Hand cuffing me to the bed was probably the beginning. If I had stayed like that, I'm positive that you would have done something other than lay next to me. You'd dissect me too."

"You got that right." OH MY GOD.

"For all I know, you still might try to dissect me. That's why I confiscated your knife last night."

"That isn't the only knife I have. I come prepared for everything!" Stein reached into Spirit's jacket and pulled out a bottle of whiskey and opened it taking a big swig.

"You sure are right. This is actually pretty good. I think I'll take this too."

"Go right ahead. Drink up. Tonight you will be mine for sure."

"What are you talking about Spirit?" He took another drink and leaned against the counter. I backed away and went to my pallet and laid down thinking I heard way to much then I wanted to hear... Noire got up from her pallet and joined me going back to sleep.

Stein's p.o.v.

"I will, well you will see later." Spirit smirked. "How about you spend the day with me and we forget about DWMA?"

"Already ahead of you. I called Lord Death and requested today of for both of us to 'solve our problems' before coming back. He said take as long as we needed and come back friendly towards each other."

"Well I plan to come back really sweet to you." Spirit sat down in the floor looking up at me. I took another drink of his whiskey.

"Do you have another bottle of this? I'm about out." I looked down at him.

"Yeah, but do you think you really want it?"

"Yes Spirit or else I wouldn't ask." I put the empty bottle on the counter and pulled out my box of cigarettes.

"What should we do together today? Up for a beach trip?" I squatted down and reached into his jacket taking another bottle. "Hey don't get use to this, I wont let you get drunk all the time like I do."

"I was thinking I would take you to that women club you like so much and drop you off there." I opened it and took a small sip.

"WHAT? We are supposed to spend today together!" I looked at him and at the bottle.

"Drink this." I passed it to him. "I need to stay sober today."

"Sure, I am going to get drunk and party." He started to gulp it down. Alright Stein, keep this up and make HIM drunk.

"Oh yeah about that.... I think I might just leave you in the care of those girls at that bar club thingy. They seem to get you drunk."

"I can get drunk with our with out girls." Spirit got up and started towards the door but the started to stumble back and fell down back into the spot he sat down at.

"So I see. Where do you think you are going? I got you right where I want you, and I'm not drunk so I can't be distracted easily." I smirked down at him.

"I thought I would go check up on those pretty girls, you don't mind right?"

"I'm taking you home. You'll embarrass yourself and me." I grabbed his arm and left breakfast out with a note telling them to have a nice day. I put Spirit in my car and climbed into the driver's side and drove back to my house.

"W...You drove past my house Stein, and that club...Are we going to the beach?"

"Not right now. I'm taking you to my house till I feel like letting you go, and you aren't drunk anymore."

"Well I still have, one..two...three...four-five. five bottles of rum in my jacket."

"Then you will be at my house for a LONG time." I parked in front of my house and got out taking Spirit inside.

"Look Stein we are home!" He pointed around us.

"I thought you didn't want to move in with me Spirit." I sat Spirit down on the couch.

"When did I say that?"

"Since how you want to, I'll let you move in if you really want." I sat next to him.

"No, I like the house near those two nice ladies...yess." Spirit took out a bottle of rum and opened it to take a gulp.

"Spirit, let me have a sip before you drink it all!" I pushed my glasses up and pushed him onto his back on the couch. "I mean it."

"Here have your own bottle!" Spirit handed over the bottle then reached into his jacket getting out another bottle. I got up from leaning over Spirit and sipped it waiting for Spirit to sit back up.

"You really want to be drunk near me Spirit?" Spirit laid still and tried to open the bottle and drink from it spilling most of it onto his face and tux.

"Yeah, nothing can stop me!" I smirked.

"Ok. How about we play one of your silly games. I'm getting bored." I looked down at him and set my bottle down on the floor and leaned over him putting my hands by his head.

"We could play checkers, winner does whatever he wants to the loser." I looked at him.

"Not much of a reward. I'm already doing most of what I want. You're too drunk to push me away like you normally would."

"Fine, if I win your going to start drinking with me more often, What do you want if you win?"

"The MAKA DOLL!" I smirked at him.

"No! You can not take my Maka dolly from me!" I smiled.

"Yes I can." I reached into his tux again.

"You best to stop while you can!" Spirit transformed.

"You're no fun." I picked him up and threw him across the room.

"Owe..." He turned back to human and rubbed his head then took off his jacket. "This just got serious."

"I'm not serious yet." I taunted him trying to raise his anger level and frustrate him later.

"You little meanie! I wont play with you." He took his jacket with him to my room.

"Yes you will." I muttered. I stood up and followed him down the hall quietly. He got to my bedroom and laid down on the bed on his stomach and smiled happily.

"So comfy..." I pulled out his hand cuffs I had stolen when he wasn't paying attention and came into the room. Then I saw it. My Spirit doll was sitting on my nightstand. I ran over to it and tried to get to it before Spirit looked around my room. He raised his head up hearing me and then sat up starting to look around my room. I snatched it and shoved it into my coat.

"Spirit, why don't you take a nice nap." He glanced over his shoulder at me and smirked.

"Okay..." He stood up on my bed and started to take off his shirt and then his pants leaving his boxers on and threw the clothes into the floor. I narrowed my eyes and edged my way over to the door. He laid down and curled up to my sheets.

"Creep." I opened my door and started to leave.

"Get over here Stein." I looked at him. He really is stupid.

"Settle for my smell on the sheets." I stepped into the hallway leaving the door open.

"Get back here or I will go see those ladies inste- Hey what a clever idea..."

"What?" I looked at him before I went to the living room and hesitated.

"Bye Stein I am going out today."

"You're drunk and half naked. No." I crossed my arms and walked back into the room blocking the door.

"I am not." He got up and started to slide his shirt on and stood up. "Get out of my way."

"Put your damn pants on too." I shut the door.

"Make me." He went over to the door. I grabbed his wrist and threw him on the bed and got on top of him making sure he couldn't get up. I leaned close to his face.

"Put your pants on."

"No. I don't wanna."

"Don't make me teach you why pants are important." I put my forehead on his and stared into his eyes. He gripped the bottom of my shirt and pulled it up.

"No, take your shirt off."

"Why should I?" I narrowed my eyes at him.

"Because I asked you to." I moved my head away from his and sat up.

"Why'd you ask Spirit?" I grabbed his hands and pulled them off of my shirt.

"So you can be more comfy!" He pulled his hands away and started to pull his shirt off. Where is he going with this?

"Spirit, I'm telling you. If you want to see those ladies, you have to put all of your clothes back on." I leaned my face closer to his again.

"I don't want to see them, I want to stay here."

"Then I guess I can get off of you now and let you sleep." I smirked at him.

"Your right about getting off of me." In one moment he flipped us over and sat up on me. "Ha." He got off me quickly and ran out the room. "Ladies! I am on my way." DAMN IT! I've got to get him back somehow before he gets out the door! I climbed out of bed and ran into the hallway.

"Spirit! Come back here! I need to ask you something before you go! It's really important!"

"Okay Stein." He came down the hall eating an apple and leaned up against the wall when he reached me. I moved in front of him.

"I was wondering Spirit," I pushed him up against the wall and held him there, "if you wanted to take a nap with me."

"With you?" He smirked. "I would like that."

"Then come back to bed." I pulled away keeping one hand on his wrist in case he bolted.

"Why are you in your coat and shirt still?" He asked and took a bite of the apple before he put it into my lab coat and lifted my shirt up while pinning me to the wall.

"You want me to take them off for you Spirit? Or should I give you the privilege of doing it yourself?" I looked at him. He owes me for having to deal with his drunkenness when he gets sober. I can't believe I'm going to let him do it too. Maybe I should find another way.

"Oh Stein..." He grabbed the sides of my coat and pulled it off my back and down my arms then dropped it and took the bottom of my shirt and pulled me closer with it and lead me to the bedroom then slid it off over my head. "Why was there a little doll like me in your coat?" I blushed a little.

"What are you talking about Spirit? I think you must have hallucinated." I looked down at my shirt on the floor. Damn. I looked back at Spirit and pushed him into the bed and laid down next to him making sure to keep one hand on his wrist.

"I seen it, I am not stupid." He mumbled and curled up pulling the covers over us.

"But you are drunk. Otherwise I don't think you would have taken my shirt off and got into bed with me."

"Tell me that when I am sober, wait...you just did!" He chuckled. "I am not drunk, the rum bottles have water inside. Nice scar." He smirked. No, that can't be.... I sniffed Spirit to smell for any alcohol. My eyes widened when I realized I fell into Spirit's trap.

"You tricked me to get me to do all of that didn't you? And you enjoyed every bit of it too. You were never going to the ladies were you?" I started to pull away realizing that I was vulnerable.

"Well if you think that then...yes." He grabbed my wrist and pulled me back to him.

"What are you going to do to me now?" I started to get worried.

"I am going to make us something to eat." I calmed down and relaxed a little not even realizing I had tensed up in the first place.

"Can I have my shirt back then?" I looked at him and started to pull away again.

"Put it on and I will burn all of your shirts."

"Fine, I wont put it back on." I sat up.

"Good Stein." He got up and stretched then went to the bathroom. I waited until he shut the door then leaped out of bed and ran to my coat in the hallway grabbing it and put it back on. I took the doll out and went back to my room putting it in my dresser. Spirit came back out. "What are you doing Stein?"

"Nothing. I'm just wearing my lab coat again." I turned to look at him and started to close my coat.

"Cheater." He frowned then put his clothes back on. I smirked and picked up my shirt off of the floor and took of my coat slipping my shirt over my head and then put my coat back on.

"I hope you got a nice long look at me because I don't think that you will see me shirtless again."

"Your right, I am leaving you." He went to the door walking out. I ran over to the door and walked down the hallway grabbing his wrist and pulling him to me.

"Not until I say so."

"What are you talking about, you wanted me to leave. Let me go so I can go see those pretty ladies." I leaned closer to him.

"Shut up ok?" I gave him a quick kiss and let him go.

"Wh..." He fell silent and his eyes widened.

"Bye." I turned around and started walking back to my room smirking.

"Hey...Wait for me!" He followed me.

"Thought you wanted to see ladies, not guys." I sat on my bed and rested my head on my hands watching Spirit come in.

"I didn't really want to." He sat down by me.

"You wanted me to chase you then?" I looked over at him.

"Maybe."

"Let's see if you are serious about wanting to see me instead of ladies." I pushed him over and got on top of him leaning down to him and started to take his shirt off.

"Whoa Stein... Let me." He smirked. Then maybe he was serious and I fell into another trap by an idiot. Am I stupider than I thought possible. I sat up, and slipped off my lab coat dropping it to the floor. How far is Spirit going to go before he gets scared? Let's find out. This can be a little experiment. "I think I lost the hand cuffs...looks like we can't have that kind of fun." He took off his jacket and shirt then slipped off his pants. I smirked at him.

"I took them." I kept my shirt on and leaned down to him again. He smirked and then sat up.

"Stein I don't think you are ready to experiment on the other side." He went to the door. "I will fix you something to eat."

"How'd you know that I was doing a little experiment?" I laid down and spread out looking at the ceiling.

"You would have done it with me already if it wasn't just a test."

"What if I wanted to drag it out because I was enjoying myself before we got anywhere? Anyways, yes, that was an experiment. I thought you might enjoy that one more than a dissection, but I guess I was wrong. I wasn't going to do anything past taking off my shirt. I'm not that kind of person to sleep with someone like that to just find out an answer."

"An answer to what?" I turned my head to him.

"How far you are willing to go when you think that you might get something."

"When you are ready to find out, I will show you." I narrowed my eyes and sat up.

"Waaaait a minute, you only backed off because you figured out it was an experiment. You would still be on this bed with me if you hadn't."

"No, I would be up looking for those handcuffs" He winked at me. I reached into my pants pocket and pulled them out.

"I said I had them." Then I pulled out the key with my other hand. "And I'm not stupid, so I took the key."

"Well, looks like we are ready." He started to come back towards me and grabbed them from me and pushed me onto my back.

"W-what? What are you doing?!? Spirit! I thought you didn't want to anymore!" I struggled to get loose. He hand cuffed me to the bed and laughed.

"Your right, I don't." I stopped struggling and looked at him.

"Then why?"

"Why what."

"Why say that it looks like we are ready, throw me back down, and handcuff me to the bed.... You still didn't put your pants back on Spirit. They're over there." I gestured with my head to the floor.

"I don't want my pants. I want a kiss." He leaned down and stole a kiss from me then laid the key down by the bed on the nightstand and skipped out the room.

"What an idiot." I looked at the keys then wiggled around to where I could reach them using my feet. I started to get them and dropped them on my face and moved around till I had the key in my mouth, and I could use it. I looked up at the hand cuffs and reached up to them trying to get the key to unlock them. This key tastes nasty. I'm going to brush my mouth out when I free myself. I finally heard a click and pulled my hands free taking the key out of my mouth and set it down on the nightstand where Spirit put them and went to my bathroom brushing my teeth. Might as well take a shower too. I locked the door and took a quick shower and got dressed. When I went back into my bedroom, I saw that Spirit hadn't checked up on me yet. Good. Maybe I can get a nap in or something. I laid down on the bed after throwing Spirit's clothes away from my bed. I shut my eyes and turned over on my side away from the door.

"Stein! I made us some sandwiches!" Spirit walked in with two plates. Then stopped when he noticed me. "Good, you already freed yourself. I thought I would have to feed you this myself." He walked over and sat down in bed. "Here you go, why don't we go to the beach later on today." I stayed still. The idiot will go away if I don't pay him attention. I kept my eyes shut. "Stein...are you ignoring me? Fine. I will go find Blair and go to the beach with her instead."

"Tell her I said hi and have fun." I mumbled.

"Okay. Here I will leave you the sandwich." He placed it on a pillow and moved out of bed looking for his clothes. I sat up and started eating the sandwich while watching him look around.

"Can't find them can you?"

"Nope."

"Should have put them on a while ago then." I shrugged and kept eating.

"I will just borrow some of your clothes." He started to walk over to my dresser.

"I thought you didn't like my outfits." I stood up getting nervous and walked over to the dresser and blocked him.

"I do, just not when I want to see you...out of them then they kind of make me hate them. Move over."

"No, go find your own clothes." I pushed him away from the dresser.

"Fine." He walked out the room. "I will go like this."

"Blair will love you for eternity." I looked down at his clothes which were hiding behind the bathroom door. "Oh well. Too late to tell him. It's just a good thing he didn't find my doll." Spirit walked back in.

"On second thought I really need to find my clothes...My Maka doll is with them."

"Found them after you left. Behind the bathroom door." I pointed to my bathroom door which was open and hiding his clothes from view.

"Right." He went to them and picked them up putting them on. "I will...see you at DWMA tomorrow."

"Bye. Don't forget to show off for Blair somehow or else she won't want anything to do with you again." I walked over to my door and held it open for Spirit.

"Oh I plan to show off my abs." He walked past me out the room. I shut the door behind him and went over to my dresser taking the Spirit doll out.

"Hey there. I hope that you didn't get upset with me for putting you in there." I carried it over to my bed and laid down with it. I held it up in the air by it's hands and looked at it smiling. "I'm sorry. I had to hide you from the people who would hurt you." I hugged it and covered up putting it on my chest and I stared at it. "You're not as annoying as the real one."

"Hey Stein. Blair didn't want to hang out so I am stuck with you, sober." Spirit walked into the room and his eyes widened as he seen the doll.

"Spirit, go to that club place then. You didn't see a little doll with me at all." I took it off of my chest and put it under my pillow.

"Yes I did! " He came over to me and got into bed. "Your so cute."

"I said go to the club place. There are women there who will play with you and get you drunk." I put one hand under the pillow in case Spirit tried to take it.

"Hey...wait a minute...Do you have crazy fantasies about me and so you made a doll just like me so you can pretend it is me and talk to it while I am away...Or what."

"Who said I had a little Spirit doll? What are you talking about?" I gripped it tightly under my pillow and looked at him. He narrowed his eyes and grabbed the pillow pulling it away.

"Then what is that!" He pointed towards it. I saw this on a SpongeBob episode.

"Your imagination." I said copying the way SpongeBob said it. I picked it up and put it in my coat.

"No it is not, your as creepy as I am... I like it!" He laid down next to me and curled up.

"What are you doing? Go hang with the ladies." I want some time alone with my doll. It doesn't talk back to me like you do. Plus it doesn't hand cuff me to the bed and forget about me.

"No, I want to be with you!" He pulled the covers over his head. I scooted to the other side of the bed and laid on the edge of it. I took out my doll and hugged it under the covers. No way am I letting him take you. "Don't disturb me I am taking a nap." I looked at the real Spirit. Nope, I'm going. I got up and went to my door taking little Spirit and my plate with me. I put the plate in the sink and laid down on the couch looking at the Spirit doll on my chest again.

"He won't come near us. He's asleep. Now, tell me why you keep drinking so much? Is it because of Maka? Or is it something else completely? You can tell me anything you want.... Fine, don't say anything. I'll just keep my suspicions." I turned over onto my side and hugged the doll going to sleep.

Spirit's p.o.v.

I woke up after a few hours of sleep in Stein's bed. I looked around to see he is still gone. I got to my feet and walked out the room and towards the living room and caught him asleep holding the little me. I took a picture and put it as my wallpaper then walked out Steins house and then stopped...Should I leave a note? No...He wouldn't care. I kept walking and went to Death manor and walked into the place looking around to see it empty...OH! Their in school...right. DWMA...Looks like I have a long wait to. How long will it take till Stein calls me asking for my whereabouts.. What should I do while I wait for the death twins and Stein. I have an idea! I will go to the club and meet pretty ladies till the death twins get out o- Hey why is the lights on? Shouldn't they be off... I walked around quietly and heard a few things getting shuffled around upstairs so I went up there and seen Noire's bedroom door wide open. I walked over to it and stepped into the doorway. A guy froze still when he seen me and I crossed my arms about to speak when he quickly jumped out the window and I ran over watching him get away. "What the hell...."

I looked around her room seeing it destroyed, he was looking for something. I picked up my phone and called Stein.

"Hello." Stein sounds sleepy.

"We have a problem, there was a break in at the manor and the guy messed up Noire's room pretty bad. Looks like we have another case on our hands. Meet me at DWMA."

"Really? Someone was in her room besides you? Are you sure you weren't drunk and did it yourself? Why would someone be interested in Noire?"

"Hey. It was a male guy, he escaped before I had the chance to talk. Now I don't know why someone would be interested but he is. So, meet you soon."

"Alright. About the doll Spirit.... I like you better. It won't talk back to me and say nice things."

"Yeah, I knew you would." I hung up and looked around the room once more and then left to DWMA. When I arrived I climbed the stairs then went to find Noire and Fade.

Noire's p.o.v.

Sid the zombie was substituting for Stein today, and Fade was glaring at him the whole time. Black Star was twirling a knife that was thrown at him, Kid was staring down at him probably wondering why Stein was gone, Maka was bored for a change, and Soul was watching Black Star. All in all, it was a boring class. We had to reread page 390 like he tried to last time. Fade didn't do anything except ask me to take notes for her on the chapter, so she could think about other things instead of doing the assignment.

"Noire and Fade please report to the Death Room. Noire and Fade." A woman's voice on the intercom said. My eyes widened, and I looked at Fade.

"YEAH! WOOHOO I AM FREE FROM SID!" Fade cheered as she stood up and Black Star glared at her.

"DAMN IT, YOUR SO LUCKY!" He crossed his arms and pouted and she smirked and Kid looked at the two changing his expression in so many ways.

"What Kid?" I looked at him before I stood up.

"How come you get the get out of class ticket at I don't? Don't you dare talk to my sister like that either Black Star I am still angry at you." I thought about why as Fade ran down the aisle towards the door.

"Maybe it has something to do with my step dad. I forgot to tell you Kid, but apparently he showed up."

"Oh, well I wish you both luck. Now go and make sure you tell me what happened when you get the chance."

"Do I have to tell you everything? I don't remember you telling me I was your girlfriend." I crossed my arms and looked at him.

"Fine, I will get Fade to tell me."

"I was kidding. I'll tell you what happened when I get back." I ran down the aisle and met Fade at the door. "Come on. We should go before Lord Death makes that lady call again."

"Yeah, and so that I wont have to look at Sid shooting me death glares anymore." I smiled.

"He's just weird. I heard Stein brought him back to life." I grabbed her hand and pulled her down the hallway.

"Really.. Why would Stein do that? I bet he wasn't much better alive either so Stein must be crazy."

"Well, look at it this way. Stein wanted to do an experiment, and somebody died recently so he got a fresh corpse." I looked at her. "He is already kind of crazy Fade."

"Well I knew that." She giggled.

"Do you think that we are being summoned to the Death Room for a mission, or do you think it's about my stepdad?" I frowned at her.

"Who knows... Maybe my dad was just bored and wants our company."

"I don't think he would pull us out of class for something like that. He can talk to Spirit. What do you think he's there for?"

"To guard him..."

"No he's there to be Shinigami Chopped when Lord Death feels like it." I giggled.

"I wonder why Stein was missing today, if he is gone then maybe Spirit is gone with him. They don't go far from each other."

"Think they went on their honeymoon?" I smirked at her.

"Well if the two of them went off on their honeymoon then there is a good chance the reason why we are going to see Lord Death is because he is lonely without Spirit there."

"He could always talk to the secretary." I walked over to the Death Room door and knocked.

"YA?" The door opened and Fade walked in pulling me with her. "Hello...Hello!"

"Hey dad."

"Good afternoon Lord Death." The door shut behind us and we went up to him.

"We were told you needed us." Fade asked and stopped when she seen something and I looked to see Stein and Spirit. "Guess it wasn't for company.." Fade whispered to me. "And they didn't go on their honeymoon either."

"Awww! I was looking forward to hearing they finally got married!" I said without thinking about it.

"Noire! Why do you think I would marry Spirit?!?" Stein crossed his arms. Oops.... said it out loud....

"Ummmmmm.... Lord Death, what did you need us for?" I turned to him trying to ignore Stein.

"Spirit found a intruder in the manor, he done some damage to your room and it is pretty bad. Seems like he was looking for something." Huh.... Did I hear him right? Yeah I did...

"THAT BASTARD! THAT'S MY DAMN ROOM! WHAT THE HELL WAS HE DOING IN THERE?!? WHY NOT KID'S ROOM?!?" I wanted to punch something right now. Really REALLY badly.

"That is what I would like to know...sort of." Spirit said as he took out his phone. "I took some picture, I don't know if this will help but you need to look and see if anything is missing. Also I didn't see him take anything when I seen him in action but, who knows maybe he took something. Stein and I are going to go back to investigate some more and look for fingerprints. I advise you two to not go anywhere by yourselves."

"Is this understood?" Stein asked.

"Bastards need to leave me alone....." I mumbled not really paying attention.

"I understand." Fade said quickly and nudged me. "Noire too."

"What am I understanding now?" I looked around trying to tell from their faces what it was.

"That we cant go anywhere by ourselves." Fade told me.

"Ooooh! That. Yeah, I understand..... Is Kid placed under that rule too, or is he getting away with it?" I looked at Stein.

"He will be informed of this to. Since we will be at the manor for a few hours, you two will have to be escorted home by someone else."

"Does Kid count?" I looked at him hopefully.

"No, I cant have my babies out there with a guy that could be a murderer or worse!" Lord Death yelled at us.

"Ok, ok! I won't argue! Is training cancelled too?" I looked up at Lord Death pleading silently.

"No, I will have Sid advise it for Spirit and Stein. Then when I am ready to go home I will escort you home myself."

"What?" Fade went pale.

"DAMN IT! NOT SID! I'LL LISTEN TO KID'S STUPID TAUNTS, BUT NOT SID!" I fell to my knees and started crying.

"Pleaseeeee don't." Fade begged and dropped to her knees. I grabbed her hand and looked up at Lord Death.

"Don't let Sid watch us fight Kid! Please! He's sooooo boring! Stein is a better teacher!"

"Don't escort us home! It would be so...embarrassing." Fade whimpered. "Make Spirit do it all instead and Stein go by himself to the manor, or better yet make Sid do it!" I nodded.

"Sid might have a blast investigating! Stein is a better protector! Well.... at least when Spirit is holding him back from being scary. Please don't make me deal with Sid! HE MADE ME REREAD PAGE 390! THE WHOLE CHAPTER! Stein already made us read it!"

"You two stop your complaining I already made my mind up!" He sounded frustrated.

"Yes sir!" I quickly collected myself and stood up drying my tears and left Fade stranded on the floor by herself. No way am I pushing it. He'd Shinigami Chop us!

"Fine." Fade stood up and dusted herself off. "I hope you have fun alone in here for the day." She turned her back on him and crossed her arms.

"Fade... he's only trying to do the best he can...." I touched her shoulder. "And if we go back to class now, we have to put up with Sid even longer."

"Noire, Sid is better then staying in here." She winked at me.

"Y-yeah, whatever you say Fade! I'll follow you to the ends of the Earth!" I turned my back on Lord Death and the two other guys and wrapped an arm around Fade. "Let's go back to class and enjoy our amazing teacher Sid." I started to walk her back to the door.

"He is so much better then Stein as a teacher and more amusing then my male parent behind us."

"Especially when he throws a knife at you to make sure you are paying attention! He makes sure you learn instead of goof off!" I smiled at her.

"HOLD IT!" Lord Death commanded. Fade looked over her shoulder. I moved her face back to me.

"Come on. Class is waiting." I grabbed her hand. "Don't you want to spend some time with Sid?"

"You two stop right there! I wont let you f-"

"OH MY GOSH FADE! I forgot to tell you that I found Black Star in the dumpster this morning!" I pulled her along the path to the door.

"Huh." Fade smiled.

"FADE GET BACK HERE YOU TOO NOIRE. I AM NOT DONE TALKING TO YOU- YOU KNOW WHAT I MADE UP MY MIND! COME BACK SO WE CAN TALK ABOUT THIS!"

"BUT YOU SAID YOU MADE UP YOUR MIND! WHEN SOMEONE HAS MADE UP THEIR MIND, THERE IS NO DISCUSSION!" I shouted back. "Come on Fade! Maybe I can find a nice boy for you to like one day." Fade nodded and we made it to the door.

"PLEASE COME BACK HERE-"

"You do realize they can't leave without your permission right?" Stein pointed out and Lord Death calmed down and laughed.

"DAMN IT! I NEED TO GO BACK TO CLASS BEFORE I MISS SOMETHING IMPORTANT AND FAIL STEIN'S CLASS THAT SID IS SUBSTITUTING!" I shouted back.

"Get back over here and stay a while I need to have a long talk with the two of you."

"ONLY IF FADE WANTS TOO!" I looked at Fade and smiled.

"Let's do it, we have him right where we want him now."

"Alright then." I went back to Lord Death with Fade. "What is it?"

"Sit down. I want to hear about these slumber parties you have been having and the games you have played oh and most importantly, Why Black Star was in the dumpster this morning."

"Well, we usually play truth or dare, then.... Fade should I tell him about the other games?" I looked over at her. He might freak out if we tell him that we play spin the bottle and seven minutes in heaven....

"NO!" Stein and Fade yelled.

"Oh?"

"Hey Lord Death may I leave to go to my job and can Stein come with?" Spirit asked.

"Yes you may." The two left us alone in a hurry.

"WIMPS!" I shouted after them. "And Black Star was in the dumpster because....." I looked at Fade. "Um...."

"He found his love of his life there and decided to spend the morning with her till school started."

"Yeah! That." I looked back at Lord Death.

"Lies." Fade backed up quickly as he tried to Shinigami Chop her. Then me.

"Eeeek! I'll tell the truth about it! Just don't Shinigami Chop meeeeeee!" I ran around the room dodging him. He calmed down.

"Please begin." I looked at Fade apologetically.

"Fade, I'm gonna tell him ok? Don't get mad."

"Nooooo. I am going to go hide behind a cross." She went over to one and hid behind it.

"We decided to play spin the bottle because I ruined it last time when I landed on.... no need to say names. Um.... Yeah, so we played again, but Stein got bored watching us play so he suggested we play seven minutes in heav-"

"NO WE DIDNT!" Fade ran over to me.

"We set ground rules though! No dissecting and no what most people think about when playing that game.... yeah, no grown up stuff besides kissing. We played for a bit, but then Black Star got Fade. I don't know exactly what happened, but I knew something was wrong when I went into the closet with Ki- someone. There was a crack on the wall that wasn't there before Fade, so when I came out I asked if Black Star disobeyed the ground rules. Apparently he kissed her and she hit her head trying to pull away when he had her against the wall. Kid had a nice long chat with Black Star. Fade put shaving cream in Black Star's hand in his sleep. I... put him in the dumpster this morning." I looked down at my feet then realized I might get Shinigami Chopped, so I ran to the other side of the room while Fade ran away herself.

"Hello, yes I want Black Star in the death room, NOW!" Lord Death told someone and after a few minutes of awkward silence Black Star came running in.

"YAH-" When he reached Lord Death he was Shinigami Chopped. "OWEEEEE!"

"WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING KISSING MY DAUGHTER AND PLAYING SEVEN MINUTES IN HEAVEN WITH HER, IM GOING TO KILL YOU FOR BREAKING THE GROUND RULES!"

"Sir! Fade said he didn't break the ground rules! I thought I said that though...." I spoke up from where I was hiding.

"Hit him daddy hit him real hard for touching my butt." Black Star gasped and ran from Lord Death as he was chased across the Death room.

"JUST MAKE HIM GO ON A SUICIDE MISSION!" I shouted. I peeked over at them. Lord Death stopped and laughed evilly.

"I have the perfect mission." Fade giggled.

"No sir please, not that..."

"Yes! you shall do it, go get Tsubaki and come back immediately." Lord Death turned to Fade and I. "You two may go back to class."

"Tsubaki didn't do anything though." I looked up at him tears in my eyes. "And she's my friend." I started crying.

"Ah, fine. Black Star, new mission. GO CLEAN THE LIBRARY." Black Star paled.

"Not the library!"

"Yes, the library. Go do it."

"Yes sir..." He hung his head and walked out of the Death Room. I cheered up.

"Thanks Lord Death! I really wouldn't like it if Tsubaki died because of that idiot!" I looked up at him smiling.

"No problem, now you two get to class and have fun being in the boring class that Sid is subbing. While you are there tell Kid to come here."

"Ok! Bye!" I waved as I dragged a crying Fade out of the Death Room.
