"Yosh!" Hyde exclaimed as he shook his older brother's shoulder while holding a mistletoe in his other hand. "Are you ready, Nii-san?"

Kuro sighed in return, rubbing the back of his head. "What a pain..." Sleepy Ash replied, slumping a bit with laziness expressed in his body movement and expression. "This mission is pretty dumb, Hyde... Like... Why, exactly...? Too troublesome... Can't deal..."

Lawless furrowed his eyebrows, before rolling his eyes. "You're no fun, Nii-san, you know that?" He whined. "We just have to get, ya know, Angel-chan and Mahi-Mahi under the mistletoe and- mission completion!" Kuro only sighed again.

It was Christmas Day, and all the Servamps and Eves were over at Misono's (and Mikuni (since that's technically his house too)) house. Yes, even C3 was there and Tsubaki and his subclass. Everyone agreed upon each other that they all would have a truce: no fighting, no hating, keep the positivity up, no motherfucking war.

With the truce in mind, everyone surprisingly got along well with each other (with the exception of Misono yelling at Mikuni and Mikuni sending death glares at Tetsu... and Mikuni and Tsurugi sending death wishes towards each other of course). Mostly all the adults were drunk including all of C3, but unfortunately, Tsurugi wasn't able to drink since Jun had gotten (surprisingly) drunk, leaving Takuto in Tsurugi's hands. Sure, the ace of C3 was disappointed he couldn't drink, but it was better to take care of the kid he freakin' loved than to be drunk off his ass (now he could brag all he wanted about not being drunk for once and taking care of the adorable kid).

All of this happening, and yet, Hyde and Kuro- well, mostly Hyde, had one mission in mind.

Operation: Get-Mahiru-and-Angel-chan-to-Kiss.

Hyde planned this for a week before, pestering his older brother about it. Kuro wasn't interested, but Lawless knew. He knew that somewhere in him, the Servamp of Sloth had an ounce of interest in doing the mission.

Kuro sighed as Hyde shoved him playfully to go and get Licht. Kuro didn't like the idea of talking to the Greed Eve much, but the Servamp of Greed easily bribed the Servamp of Sloth by telling him it took less work to get Licht than it is to hold the mistletoe over the two's heads. The bluenette actually bought it and agreed. Hyde wasn't lying about how much work it took, though.

"Mahiru-kun~" Hyde hummed, as he shoved the mistletoe in his pocket while waving at Mahiru to get his attention. Mahiru glanced at the Greed Servamp, before looking back at Sakuya and telling him something before walking over to Lawless.

"Did you need something?" The brunette asked with an innocent expression.

What a baby face. Lawless thought, his usual grin on his face as he looked down at the high schooler. No wonder Licht loves this kid.

"Right! Right~ You got a present for everyone, right?" Hyde chirped, ruffling Mahiru's hair. "Can you tell me what you got me~?"

"Are you stupid?" Mahiru chuckled, before putting on a semi-serious expression. "I'm not telling you. Period."

"Aw~ You're so mean! At least tell me what you got for my cool angel-chan?"

"Eh? Licht-san? Well..."

Hyde grinned widely, holding in his laughter as a small blush arose on Mahiru's face as the brunette glanced away sheepishly. This kid! Hyde laughed in his head. Kuro had told him that his Eve had made a cute dove plush for his Angel-chan, but man was Mahiru's expression priceless!

"I'm just kidding~ Nii-san told me earlier, so don't worry about telling me! I already know."

"Kuro?! Why that-"

"Oi. Shitty hedgehog," Licht said bluntly, walking over to the two with Kuro. "Cat said you needed me. What is it— ah. Mahiru."

"Oh... Licht-san."

The Greed Servamp grinned widely, holding the mistletoe in his pocket. "Lich-tan~! Right, I just needed all four of us here so I can discuss something with all of you. That's fine, right?" He questioned, as he slowly started to pull the mistletoe out, a smirk growing on his face as he did.

"Uh... Yeah, I guess so- ....What's with that smir-"

"Gah! What the hell!" Licht blurted as he got shoved to the floor in a quick motion, a small boy with brown hair and bright brown eyes laying on top of him.

"Uwoh!! It's Wicht Jeky Todowoki!" Takuto gasped, a huge smile on his face. Hyde, Kuro, and Mahiru had a look of surprise and shock of what had just happened, the two Servamps especially. But no, it wasn't because of the fact that Licht got shoved to the floor by a kid, it was because Hyde was currently holding the mistletoe over Mahiru...

...And Tsurugi.

Licht had gotten shoved out of his place and got replaced with the ace of C3, Kamiya Tsurugi, who just sighed and picked up the small child.

"Takuto-ku~n," Tsurugi whined. "I told you we have to ask fir—"

"Churugi! Pretty leaf!"

"Hah? Pretty lea— oh." The black haired male awkwardly said, as he looked up at the mistletoe and then at Mahiru. He then looked at Hyde. "Me? Him?" He asked, questioning if he had to kiss the brunette. "I get paid after this, right?"

However, Hyde was too shocked and speechless to reply.

"Papa will pay you!" Takuto chirped happily, looking up at the C3 member.

"Takuto! I'd do it for the money, but I'm not even sure if Mahiru-kun—"

"It's... It's just... It doesn't have to be a long one, right?" The high schooler muttered, rubbing his arm as he glanced away awkwardly. They all could tell he was slightly blushing.

"Oh. Is that so..." The adult hummed and paused for a moment. "How much am I getting paid, again?"

"Papa is gonna pay Chu-Chu!"

"Right. Well, okay then," Tsurugi chirped, placing down Takuto on the floor before standing in front of Mahiru. "Alright~ This'll just be quick, okay?"

"R... Right..."

The magician grinned widely, cupping the teenager’s cheek. Mahiru on the other hand, was blushing furiously. At this point, everyone had their eyes on the current situation: The drunk C3 members cheering, Hyde and Kuro being way too speechless, the other Servamps having no idea what was going on, all the Eves staring in shock, Sakuya mentally freaking out, Licht looking like he was going to kill Tsurugi...

The gap between the two slowly started to close, Tsurugi leaning in with a devilish smirk and Mahiru with his eyes closed, waiting for the kiss to happen.

Hyde slowly turned his head towards Licht, and man... was his angel pretty (very) fucking mad. His eyes- expression, showed it all.

Mahiru tensed once he felt Tsurugi's warm breath against his lips. He was nervous, but it was more simple to just get this over with, right?

"Ma~ Hi~ Ru~" Tsurugi cooed lowly in a husky voice once his and the brunette's lips were only a centimeter apart, but that only seemed to trigger a certain someone, as the ace of C3 was soon sent flying across the room.

"Bullshit," Licht said bluntly, but Hyde could hear the disgust and jealousy in his word. It was until then that the pianist had turned towards Mahiru, grabbing his chin and kissing him.

It lasted like that for a few seconds. More cheering was heard as yells from Sakuya were screamed across the room. Kuro was in total disbelief while Hyde stood there completely dumbfounded.

Licht pulled away, pulling Mahiru close to him as he glared at Tsurugi who sat up with total confusion, yet at the same time, amusement.

"Listen here, you fallen angel," Licht started. "Nobody touches my light, you hear me? Nobody. Lay a finger on Mahiru and you're dead."

The corner of the Servamp of Greed's lips twitched, a grin slowly coming to on his face.
