A/N: This one was requested by Gozzykill ! Please enjoy it~

Sorry this one's a bit shorter! I'm actively procrastinating my research papers right now so this probably won't be as thought-out or as good as it usually is since half of my mind is distracted~

You walked along the corridors of Uranohoshi trying to make your way to the chairwoman's office. There was a certain problem with you trying to get there though....

"(Y/n)-san!"

"Senpai, you look so cool!"

"(L/n)-senpai, good afternoon!"

"Senpai!"

You sweat dropped at the amount of people calling out to you. Normally you wouldn't mind greeting everyone since your friendliness was one of the reasons for your popularity, but you're in a bit of a hurry since you were called through the intercom for some reason.

"G-good afternoon! Sorry, I'm in a hurry..."

Everyone continued to greet and call out to you, however at your request they made sure to move out of your way at least, allowing you to walk even faster to your destination to figure out why you were summoned.

xXx

"M-Mari-san?!"

The blonde smiles at you as you enter the chairwoman's office.

"(Y/n)-chan~! You came~"

The taller girl stands from the chair at the desk as the door closes behind you. You watch as her smile lights up the room while you gawk, frozen by door.

"Wh-why are you in here, Mari-san?"

She gives you her signature cat-like smile as she moves closer to you. When she reaches you, she grabs your wrist and pulls you towards her and deeper into the smartly furnished room.

"Well I am the chairwoman, and I was the one who called for you~"

She walks backwards, forcing you to follow while silently gazing at you with her plastered smile as a blush slowly makes its way on your face.

"Mari-san?"

You both now stand in the middle of the room, in front of the large glass windows that overlook the courtyard.

She let's go of your wrist and instead grabs your hand and intertwines your fingers together. She then places moves her other hand to rest on your shoulder while moving closer.

The smell of her perfume fills your nostrils as your face feels as though it's caught fire. When she moves even closer to you, you feel your brain short-circuit.

"Wh-wha---?"

"C'mon, (Y/n)-chan~" she momentarily removes the hand on your should to place your other hand on her waist, "Let's dance!" Her voice suddenly drops several octaves, "Don't let go of me, okay?"

With shivers running down your spine, she puts her hand on your shoulder once she's firmly pressed your hand against her waist, and then begins to slowly move and sway to music you can't hear.

You numbly move along at first, swaying along to an unknown rhythm. She presses herself closer against you and you stiffen. You gawk at her until she aims a blinding and carefree smile at you.

You find your muscles and nerves relaxing until you've calmed down enough to flow along with her in this dance between two, maybe, friends, though you wouldn't dare to ask her for more.

You may be popular enough to gather everyone's attention, but there's only one person you want looking at you.

xXx

Maybe it was rather brash of me, certainly impulsive, to suddenly take her hands and convince her to dance with me.

I really couldn't help myself though, not when (Y/n) was blushing so cutely at our close proximity. I could almost dare to believe that she had feelings for me, that someone as popular and well-liked as her would bother to spare a glance at the school's chairwoman.

Well, maybe she would. It wouldn't hurt to try, no?

Maybe it would hurt to try...

xXx

"(Y/n)-chan~ Who knew you could dance so elegantly, I'm impressed." Mari says while staring into your (e/c) eyes.

You feel a blush return as you avert your eyes. She's really turned her teasing up to eleven today. Well, you don't entirely mind...

"Is...is this why you called me in here?"

"Hmmm~"

She suddenly rests her hand against your shoulder whilst still dancing, causing your heart rate to beat in double time.

"Would you be mad if I said yes?" You can almost feel the cat-like smile that must surely be on her face right now.

You let the silence take over as you contemplate her question, your lack of immediate response causing the blonde to begin humming.

"O-only if you dance with everyone you call over the intercom..."

She stumbles a little in her movements before a laugh escapes her lips, "Other than you, the only person I've ever called on the intercom is Dia, and I don't think I'll risk the physical harm that might come with dancing with her~"

Her golden eyes find yours as she leans in until her face is merely a few centimeters from yours.

"Why? Would little miss popular be jealous if I did?"

You feel your face explode in heat, incoherent syllables escaping from your half open mouth. Mari merely chuckles at your state and proceeds to twirl you in a circle, letting go at the last second. The momentum causes you to fall into the nearby couch, your eyes wide before searching for the mischievous chairwoman.

"Hmm, maybe I should just keep you here so your fan girls won't get to you. Can't help that you're so lovable."

You spot her a few feet to your left, her gaze roaming over your body before walking up to you.

"M-Mari?"

Once she's right in your personal bubble, she brings her face nearly up against yours as you shift your whole body right, causing you to lie on the couch.

To your surprise the golden blonde girl's face never leaves your field of vision. Taken by her mesmerizing gaze, it takes you a while to realize that Mari has half straddled you on the couch.

"Th-this---"

"Mm~ You're really cute with a red face, you know?" She brings a hand up to your cheek and caresses it, a sigh escaping your lips.

Her face moves to close the distance between the two of you. Your (e/c) eyes widen before squeezing themselves shut.

...
...
...?

After a few seconds of, well, nothing, you open your eyes to find that all you can see is the ceiling. You momentarily wonder if you were hallucinating the whole time before you realize you can hear someone softly breathing next to your right ear.

"Ma...ri...?"

"Hey. Did you know? I'm not as bold as I pretend to be."

Her words catch you off guard and you turn your head in an attempt to look at her.

"You're so popular...do I even have a chance?"

"What are you talking about? Mari?"

The silence takes over while the girl on top of you slowly moves back to look at you. Your mouth opens in shock to find a few tears escape the normally cheerful girl's eyes.

"I love you, (Y/n)."

"Huh?"

"I'm sorry."

She moves to get away from you before your senses catch up with you, causing you to grab her arm just before she gets out of reach.

Gravity works its way into the picture and suddenly you find yourself on top of the chairwoman, and pinning her down, on the floor besides the couch.

"(Y-y/n)?!"

"I do too!" She stares blankly at you, "I l-love you too, Mari!"

Determined to get her to believe you and wanting the tears still lingering in her eyes to go away, you close the open space between your faces and kiss her lips.

In the back of your mind, your aware that someone could just walk into the room and catch you like this, which would make this even more like some story a fan fiction writer would think up, but you're too distracted by her soft lips, and how breathless she sounds.

When you finally pull apart, Mari's hands escape from your grasp to pull you into a crushing hug while rolling to put her on top.

"Mari..."

"I love you, (Y/n). My gaze has only ever been focused on you."

You smile at that, "So has mine. I love you, Mari."

Omake:

"Mari-san! Wher---"

Dia opens the doors to the chairwoman's office and stops short of walking in. Her faces explodes in color to find her childhood friend literally on top of one of the most popular girl's in school, (Y/n).

"Oh~ Dia! Hello~"
"Th-this isn't what it looks like!"

The student council president clenches her fists.

"WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING ON SCHOOL GROUNDS?!"

"We-we're not..."

"Ehe...uh, it's joke?"

"Mari?!"
"MARI!"

"Let's run (Y/n)!"

"W-wait?!"
"GET BACK HERE!"

A/N: Rather than get my important shit done, have this early update!! lolol, thanks for all the support!
