leading with two points each Aimi-chan felt frustrated. " Arata and Fumiko are good", Aimichan said as she was getting ready for the next challenge. " we will win baby", Denji said halfheartedly. A part of him felt like he would have enjoyed this with someone else but there not much that could be done.
"Now ladies and gents it's time to make it just a little more hotter in here. The next challenge represents unity and how in sync you are with you partner. To test this we will be doing the Pocky challenge. Rules are simple you and your partner will start on one end and you will eat your way to you partners lips. if it breaks you lose, if it drops or in any piece of the pocky hits the floor you lose. First on to finish and kiss will win. Aimi-chan and Denji were up first. Aimi-chan had her game face on. She was sending him the eye signals to chew fast. Once the whistle blew he did. As he got closer to her he saw less of her human face and her slowly turning into a little piggy. This helped him cope when he kissed her and won first. As they
looked into the crowd of darkness. He could have sworn he felt the eyes of someone familiar staring intensely at him.
Tetsu mumbled into Fudo's ear, " Your pet seems to be doing awfully well. I wonder how long he will remain yours. " Fudo-San cut his eyes at Testu and he continued to watch the show. Tetsu smiled before whistling and yelling as the crowd was enjoying the show. Mika and Toki took the second round in a matter of seconds and madeout. Yumiko had to shoo them off the stage as the next round started. As Rita chopped on her pocky to kiss her boyfriend Arata and Fumiko were glaring at each other as they chewed. Right as they were about to win Arata let his end drop. As the pocky hit the floor Fumiko looked at him. " it's just a game ", he said as he walked off. Rita won round 3.
Fumiko followed Arata back stage and looked at him. "what the hell Arata! I thought you wanted to win," Fumiko said. " I do just not with you. Right now you are being a bitch," Arata said. " me?! your unbelievable I'm out of here", Fumiko said as she started packing up her stuff. " great just remain ..." Fumiko stopped when Aimi-chan entered the room. " oh trouble in paradise?.....I was gonna ask a favor...." Aimi-chan said but trailed off. " What is the favor?" Arata asked. " My dress got ruined and I was gonna ask if either of you knew a trick to get the stain out..." Arata nodded," I see um I dont but Fumiko was just leaving so maybe she can lend you her dress since you are similar sizes. " Aimi-chan was surpised. " you both are dropping out? " She failed at hiding her joy. " I'm so sorry to hear that. " This pissed Fumiko off more. "I'm not going any where" , and she gently pushed Aimi-chan out of there their section of the changing area and slid the door shut. Fumiko looked at Arata," you dont even try and that's why she loves him. " Fumiko walked away and got dressed.
Aimi-chan was shocked but decide it was best to ask another couple. She was happy to see that Arata was still hers and there was no need to be jealous.
