Note: This will be written in a different form then I usually write it for a while. *Looks at sheet of paper* and yes, it IS supposed to be kissing.

"KERI'S GOT A BOYFRIEND, KERI'S GOT A BOYFRIEND!!" Bruce sung loudly, doing a goofy dance.

Arsyn groaned, banging her head on the table. "Someone pleeeease get him to shut up!"

After her and Andi's little chat, Andi had decided to show the boys the note. Unfortunately for Arsyn, Bruce wouldn't get off her case about it.

"I KNEW IT, I KNEW IT, I KNEW IT ALL ALONG!! YOU FOOLS JUST WOULDN'T LISTEN, I WAS RIGHT AND YOU WERE WRONG!!"

"How was I supposed to know it he would be this bad?" Andi asked.

"Oh I don't know, the fact he's so loud!?" Dan exclaimed.

"THE NEXT YOU KNOW YOU TWO WILL BE MAKING BABIES!!"

"SHUT UP ALREADY!!" Arsyn roared, smashing a bowl on Bruce's face, her face a deep beet red.

"OH SEE? SEE?! DENIAL WHILE BLUSHING!!" Bruce said once he managed to get the broken shards on the bowl off his face.

Before Arsyn could snap back, a knock came on their door. Andi turned around and opened it, Astrid standing on the other side.

"Hey guys, time for training-" she started.

"Hey Astrid, did you know Arsyn has-" Arsyn slapped her hand over Bruce's mouth, scowling.

"Say it, and you'll find yourself rotting deep underground," she threatened.

Astrid stared at them, confused. "Well anyways, meet us at the arena to start your training." And with that, she left.

Arsyn placed her hand off Bruce's mouth, wiping it on his shirt. "Don't mention this to anyone, got it?"

Bruce quickly nodded, and they walked off to the arena.

============================

-Arsyn-

"So...um, did you get my flowers?" Gustav asked me as we pushed several Viking targets to the center of the arena.

"Oh, uh....y-yea, they were quite nice," I replied, brushing my bangs out of my eyes.

Quit stuttering, I silently scolded myself. Since when are you nervous around a guy?

"What was that?"

"Nothing," I quickly replied.

Tension suddenly formed around us as we continued to place more targets. Finally, Gustav spoke.

"So...why didn't hate me like you hated Snotlout?"

I looked up, surprised by his question. "Honestly, I'd kill you, but for some reason, I kinda like you."

Gustav blinked.

"A-As a friend," I quickly added.

Gustav smiled, "well, that's the reason I talked to you in the first place. I wanted to see if you were like Astrid, hate me right away. But you seemed nicer than her though. For a series killer at least."

I blushed a bit, looking down. "Um, thanks.."

"Don't mention it," Gustav grinned.

I looked up, and before I knew it, his lips met mine. Shocked, my eyes widened but later on closed, enjoying the moment.

Once we pulled away, Gustav looked deeply into my eyes. Without a word, he walked out of the arena.

Later...

"He WHAT?!" Bruce, Dan, and Andi exclaimed at the same time. I nodded nervously, bracing for their expression.

Bruce grinned widely, "WOO!! MY SHIP SAILS, MY FREAKIN SHIP SAILS!!! AND YOU GUYS THOUGHT I WAS CRAZY,"

"That's because you are," Dan muttered.

Bruce waved it off, "the Artav ship has just started sailing! Who knows what'll happen next?"

"Artav?" Andi asked.

"Well do you prefer Gussyn?"

The three of us stared at each other, then shrugged.

"Anyways, he'll probably be asking you on a date soon. Make sure you know to say yes."

"How do you even know he'll ask me?"

"Duh, I'm a boy. I know how this works."

"He might not even-"

"Oh please, if he has the courage to kiss you without thinking you'd punch his face, then he's certainly brave enough to ask you on a date."

I looked back at Andi and Dan who once again shrugged.

I sighed, this will definitely be a long day.

============================

-Gustav-

"Alright Gustav!!" Snotlout congratulated, high-fiving me.

"You did rule #5 so well, making the first move! Now you can move onto step 2, asking her on a date!"

"Wait, what?!" I exclaimed.

Snotlout shrugged, "of course, once on a date you can ask her to be your girlfriend. Isn't that what you wanted?"

"Ya, but-"

"Great! Now start practicing!"

I mentally facepalmed as I walked back to my house.
