Kiva Kyoyama: Yay! I have finally found some time to update…I was just so busy since the school started…sigh…another chapter, hope you like it!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The blonde Ice Queen known as Anna Kyoyama watched the sunset through the window of her house. The only thing she could think about since she came from the beach was a certain brunette boy with orange headphones.

DING!DONG!

Anna jumped on the sound of the bell. "I'll get it" she yelled and went to open the door.

'Who the hell would come here so late?' Anna asked herself not expecting anyone. And when she opened the door, there he stood.

"Hello!" Yoh grinned at her sheepishly.

"I believe I said I was busy" she said in her icy tone.

"I thought you said you were cleaning." He replied

"I was… I am… I will be."

"Tell you what! How about I save you some time?" Yoh asked amused. With his last words random boys with cleaning utensils came in Anna's house saying,

"I'll take the kitchen." or "All right, then I'll have the bathroom"

"Isn't that the soccer team?" Anna asked completely shocked

"It's JV." Yoh explained "Go get dressed."

"I can't… I mean look at you… you look great, while I, I have nothing to wea…"

Yoh caught her in the middle of sentence pulling out a gorgeous dark red dress.

"Oh God" Anna managed to say "I'm a mess" she thought of another excuse.

"That's where I come in" Yoh's younger sister Tamao stepped in and introduced herself to Anna "Tamao Asakura, hair and makeup. You can call me Tam. If you guys need us we'll be upstairs" and with that she pulled Anna upstairs to get her ready for the party.

Downstairs Anna's younger brother Simon sat next to Yoh

"So Yoh… can I get you a drink?" Simon asked

"Sure, what'd you got?"

"…Let me check" and he went to alcohol cabinet to find some random drinks.

Upstairs

"You really never wore makeup?" Tmao asked confused

"No, my mom died before I was old enough for this stuff." Anna said

"Sorry"

"It was a long time ago and Simon was practically a baby."

Tamao shook her head and continued putting makeup on Anna's face

Half an hour later

It was already night and Yoh sat on the couch talking to Anna's brother who made him a drink.

"You sure this is margarita?" asked Yoh staring at the liquid in the glass.

"Yeah…"

At that moment Tamao came downstairs smiling at them,

"Gentleman may present the new, not improved, but different Anna Kyoyama." She said.

Instantly Yoh got up and approached to his sister

"Anna!" Tamao yelled "Anna Kyoyama get your cute but down here!" she yelled again, this time impatiently.

After a few seconds Anna finally came down.

She wore a dark red dress. The dress came down to her thigh, and had décolletage which was very low, bright red lipstick sparkled on her lips.

Yoh looked at Anna amazed. And then happened the thing that no one expected. Anna tripped and fell right into Yoh's embrace. Yoh smiled "Are you ready?"

"Yes." Anna said embarrassed. Yoh opened the door and they went to the party having no idea what is expecting them.
