Look, I took a pairing I really love and wrote a really cheesy short fic about them.


"Humph!" Black*Star sat down next to Tsubaki, his arms crossed and a frown of annoyance on his face. "I can't believe these people don't recognize a world-famous star when they see one!"

Tsubaki smiled encouragingly. "Don't worry, Black*Star," she said quietly. "You're still a star to me."

At that he looked up at her and grinned widely. "Yeah! You've always been the one I could count on to recognize my fame. You're like my number one fan!"

Tsubaki giggled softly.

"Don't you worry, Tsubaki. My most dedicated fan will always be richly rewarded, not least by getting to work with me every day." Then his smile turned back into a frown as his gaze slid back to the crowd that had ejected him. "Unlike those guys, who I'm sure must live under a rock."

She laughed again. "You're funniest when you're not even trying to be, did you know that?"

Black*Star chuckled. "It's one of my many charming qualities."

They sat quietly at the edge of the courtyard for a while, Tsubaki contentedly watching groups of other students pass and Black*Star happily contemplating his stardom. Black*Star snapped back to reality as a bunch of girls passed their bench.

Smiling, he stretched luxuriously across the bench. "Sorry ladies! I'm not interested," he said loudly. The few that noticed him just rolled their eyes and carried on.

He leaned forward and watched them leave. When they got far enough away, he smiled at Tsubaki. "Good, they didn't catch on." He looked up at her more seriously then. "I'll have to keep that up… I mean, I'd love to show you off, but I don't want any of the other girls to get jealous and try to pull something on you. After all, I know there are a lot of them just waiting to snag me."

"Hm?" Tsubaki asked, looking at him questioningly. She wasn't quite sure what he meant.

Smiling widely, Black*Star leaned forward and kissed her soundly. Tsubaki stared in shock, but as he pulled away, she was biting back a big smile. Her face flushed deep red.

Black*Star grinned. "You know, Tsubaki," he began casually, "every star has another one they admire. And you are definitely my star."
