WORLD OF APPLECO

Yuu looked around the ballroom, wanting to find someone to dance with or talk to. But it seemed like everyone they knew was busy. With great disappointment, they wanted to go back to their table to sit down and take a break from standing around doing nothing. They were glad that the others were having such a good time, even if they weren't part of the laughter they heard. Even in the distance Yuu could see Grim showing off his pyrites. They had to admit it was quite an adorable sight - it even made them smile. They turned to go to the tables but someone grabbed their wrist. Yuu immediately looked towards the person who stopped them. It was Deuce! "I finally found you! I swear I've been looking for you everywhere. There are so many people here it's easy to get lost" Deuce said not letting go of Yuu's wrist. Yuu looked at him in silence, as if waiting for him to just finally tell why he was looking for them. “And always someone would drag me onto the dance floor to dance with them. It’s hard to say 'no' when everyone is in such a good mood. I’m tired but I have the strength for one more dance. So... Would you like to dance with me?” Yuu nodded slightly in agreement. They were excited! It was as if Deuce had read their mind, that this was exactly what they needed right now - to be in someone's company. “Really? You know, I actually wanted my first dance of tonight to be us, but you disappeared from my sight right after senior's song. Now that I’ve found you, I have no intention of letting you go.” Deuce led Yuu closer to the dance floor and then grabbed their hand properly. He wondered for a moment where he should place his other hand. He had been dancing almost all night, but he still had trouble remembering the positions. "Sorry! Today is the first time I'm dancing like this... When I was little I used to dance a lot with my mom. Well... It was her dancing and I would jump around her laughing loudly. I remember it well because we always did it whenever I was in a bad mood" Deuce said without any embarrassment. "That's why I apologize right away if I step on your foot. You won't be the first person I've hurt like this today..." he added after a moment and smiled nervously. Yuu laughed quietly and shook their head to show that it didn't bother them. They both listened to the music and at the right moment they finally started to sway to it. After a while, Yuu moved closer to rest their head on Deuce's shoulder. They were glad that they could finally enjoy the ballroom atmosphere. And it was with Deuce of all people! He had always been there for them since they met. Deuce tried to stay calm, even though he felt his face turn a lot redder. This time it wasn't from exhaustion, but rather embarrassment. He held Yuu close to him so they could move comfortably as they danced. He wondered if they could hear how hard his heart was beating now. In the end, Deuce's last dance turned into another five dances. All with Yuu! But he wasn't complaining about that. After all, he had been waiting for this all evening!

Do you think Deuce sometimes looks in the mirror and sees the asshole who abandoned his mama?

Somewhere down the line, I’d like to throw Leoni into the fray. These two could be Makoto’s henchmen of sorts ww (although the person himself think they’re a hassle to deal with… )
