Okay, this is just slightly late but it's still there and such. So since it reached a 10k mark I decided to do a special! Also because I have to do this because I suddenly had an idea once I finished this book and wanted to do a one-shot for it. Hope you all enjoy the following content and I'll see you all at the end.

#1 The Tomboy Dancer
-modern story (w/o elemental powers)
-the two of you didn't know each other
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"You have got to be kidding me..." (Y/n) couldn't help but groan at the sight of it all. She had just returned back to Ninjago after a long traveling journey with her friend, Fang. Then her parents decided to place her in a dance studio in hopes of bringing her femininity back. I've been gone for two years and this is what my life has come to now!?
A part of her didn't want to go in for the fact she hated dancing and the fact her parents were now forcing her into joining. On the other hand, a part of her did want to experience a real dance studio since she was a little girl. Back then her parents couldn't afford to put her in school and so she never tried. All she is hoping is that it isn't a mistake to be here.
Taking a deep breath in she grabs the pull door and walks into the Air-conditioned room/studio. All around her were different small rooms that had a class held there. It was more organized and cleaner more than what the original thought. So far so good... Walking over to the check-in she looks for her name as an elder man reaches her side.
"Oh, you must be (m/n)'s daughter," he said catching her ears and she could only nod. "I am Lou Brookstone, the owner of this place and I'm actually close friends with your parents. I even have a son around your age. Now I'll lead you to your class since this is your first time."
Following Mr.Brookstone he leads her down the hall until he reaches a room with around 9-11 other people who seem to be more experienced than what she is. Before anything, she changes into comfy sweatpants and a loose tank top w/ her sports bra underneath. She could hear the whispers around her about her taste of clothing but at that point, she didn't care, all she did was when the class was going to start.
"Hey, everyone, glad to see you all came back today," a new voice said, catching (Y/n)'s attention immediately. She turns only to see a tall, masculine male with shaggy black hair and brownie color eyes. Something inside of her, jump right out at the sight of him as if something about him brought memories but she just doesn't know where. Then suddenly the two had eye contact. "Oh, you're the new student I've heard about. Nice to meet you, I'm Cole your instructor."
~YOUR POV~
I shake his hand and yet I got that tingling feeling again as our hands were in contact. Why the hell do I feel like this for a guy I just met. Giving Cole a small smile he goes back into telling everyone to stretch before practice starts. Everyone seems to have a partner and so I stretched by myself which I was fine with, I was new after all. Soon practiced started.
Going with the flow, I thought this class would be with classical music but instead, it was filled with modern music that was remixed. Apparently, besides not only being an instructor but also a mixer, a talent I'll give him that. Not only that but he was more clear with explaining a few moves and soon even I was getting the idea of what to do. In under 25 minutes, I was able to learn almost a whole song.
Not only was the class surprising, but himself surprised me too. I thought he would be tougher at dancing and make us do these workout videos do as 'dancing'. Instead, I was able to see him be more graceful and focus which was a bonus besides his body and personality. This class is actually fun and this is something I never say about a lot of things.
"Uh, hey..." I start, now I'm all alone with Cole I wanted to thank him for making my first day comfortable but the words weren't coming out of my mouth. He looks at me with concern yet gentle eyes. "I just wanted to say thanks...for making my first day here comfortable. I know you did it out of care so I had to thank you for that."
"Hey, it's not a problem. I'm happy to help in any way. Come back tomorrow and we'll finish off where we started okay" Cole reply with a smile on his face. I couldn't help but smile back right at him. I'm totally coming back now.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After that day, whenever I had free time I would spend my days at the studio, learning new things and seeing Cole for the most part. The same feeling is still there and yet I don't want it to stop. Also, my passion for dancing skyrockets since then and I can't stop once I started. Then they created this system that you can join a competition to compete against other groups to win a prize or something. Good thing my best friend ended up joining.
"Now all we need is one more person and we should have a complete team," I said now looking around for any new pra- I mean another member. But it seems everyone was so focused on working and none would be willing to just leave the groups just to join us. "Well.. looks like we're all alone now, dude."
"Oh, hey I heard you need another person, I can join," a familiar voice said making me freeze up. Both Fang and I turn around to see Cole smiling at us gently waiting for my response. My mouth wasn't even moving so I could only nod which made his smile even larger. "Cool, happy to work with the tow of you. Now, what song are we doing?"
"Well lucky for us, (N/n) picked the perfect song to beat the rest of the group~," Fang said smirking at me. I remove all my hair out of my face with the same smirk as well. "Welp lets get down to working, shall we~"
~3RD POV~
After that the three soon practice hard until everything was right, but that not the only thing that happened. Cole and (Y/n) were able to spend more together and get to know each other more. In the end, the three became the best of friends.
Everyone was nervous but the trio wasn't. They practiced for hours on end and made sure everything was perfect and still had fun. When it was their turn they all knew, in the end, it only depends on how in sync they were and how good they could stay with the beat. But to them even if they didn't win it just fun to be in a team doing their very best.
By the end of it all, their hearts were beating fast and the familiar trembling only came back to them and it was only a good thing. The all look at each other with smiles and satisfaction that their practice was worth it in the end. Leaving the stage it made them feel closer than ever and it didn't matter to them if they win or not. Cole glances over at (Y/n) as both brown and (E/c) clash. She couldn't help but smile up at him as if she did win and he did the same.
Once every group went up it was time for the judges to decide on the winner. In the meantime, the trio was being questioned about their choreography. All three of them decided on the moves and when to switch, it was as if all three of their minds were actually one but just divided into three different bodies.
"Now...we have the last results. So now I will say thank you, everyone, for participating and you all were amazing in your very own unique way. So now, in fifth place..." Mr. Lou states as he calls each winning team. As it was getting close to the remaining ranking and it only made the three wait in anticipation on whether or not they ranked at all. Holding a strong grasp they close their eyes and hold each other waiting for the final result. "and, in First Place is...'Last Dance'"
After that everything went in slow motion, the scream of support became deafening, the smiling face only became blurred as the three walks over to receive their award. Looking down at the medal engraved with 'First Place' (Y/n) felt a sense of Pride, something she never felt before. Feeling the emotions sweep through her, she turns to Cole and threw herself at him with a smile on her face. He quickly brings her in and swings her a bit as to catch her. Fang couldn't help but smirk seeing their best friend's happiness.
Before long, the two hugging teen realized where they were and what they were doing and immediately let go of each other. A slight blush on the two faces as they look away from each other. It was natural to be that happy since this is indeed, the first competition (Y/n) had ever won. One quick glance at each other, the familiar warm emotion surrounded them
What is this feeling...
And that is how their love story began...
#2 CAKE IS WHAT?!
"We're leaving you in charge of the bounty, so you all better not do anything stupid. I'm talking to you COLE" Kai scolds the two lovers. The rest of the ninjas were going out to do something (IDK) and decided to leave the lovers alone because, why not? They barely spend time alone together. "We're trusting you so, please...PLEASE! DON'T BURN THE KITCHEN!!"
"STOP GETTING YOUR PANTIES IN A TWIST! We'll be fine Kai, I'll make sure he doesn't do anything stupid" (Y/n) replies glaring at the red ninja who flinches. As the two were glaring at each other Nya and Lloyd made sure to place rules over a certain ninja to make sure the same thing doesn't happen again. "Now get going, you'll all be late and then you'll blame us for your tardiness."
"We'll be back by tonight, take care," Sensei said as he was the last one to leave the bounty. Silence filled the flying ship, neither one move for a moment before immediately went down to business. Cole tries to search for the most non-cookable junk food he could find while (Y/n) went looks for blankets and pillows. This is the only time they had to themselves and they would rather not waste it all.
Soon everything was in place for them as a nice/complex fort was built for the two. Cole picks (favor/movie) and stuff his face full of popcorn while (Y/n) got comfortable leaning against her boyfriend. The movie starts and soon the only sounds that could be heard were the TV, laughter, and munching of food. It was enjoyable since they two could both agree on this to be a date. They didn't need to get out just to call it that, as long as the two had each other and were alone that's it.
-COLE POV-
Once we finished the third movie, (Y/n) was out like a light afterward. She barely got any sleep since our baby pup came into our life. Luckily he was behaving today so he was asleep alongside my love. Glancing at her sleeping figure I couldn't help but blush. When she isn't being a badass, she actually is the most beautiful girl I've ever seen and she would hate me for saying that to her face.
"Ah so cute" I coo as I see her flinch. Once I knew she was out I carry her all the way to her room and came back to the kitchen. This is now a battlefield...one mistake and the whole army will go down with their leader. I must be strong and show no weakness, this battle will be in my victory. "Let's get down to business."
Searching everywhere I finally found all the ingredients I needed to battle my arch enemies...the oven. It has been mocking me since the first day we laid eyes on each other and I'll make sure I win this time. I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding onto.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It's over...It's finally over. It was a brutal attack and defense on each side but one of us had to be strong to fight back. Luckily I had an advantage against the enemy it could be mine once I place the flag on my new territory. Looking over the battle, in the end, it was the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. Except my girlfriend beats them still no matter what, I thought with a smile on my face.
"Better go get her now" I mumble to myself as I make my way back to sleeping beauty. Seeing her resting figure a part of me wanted to leave her like this and yet another wanted to be praised by her. Gently I shake her than hear a short groan and seeing those beautiful (E/c) that I fell in love with looking up at me. "You finally woke up good. I hope your nap was going well."
"Cole...what's up? You need something to eat" she ask as she lets out a yawn then immediately stops and sniffs the air. Damn it I forgot she had her sense of smell. "What did you do Cole..."
"W-what do you m-"
"You were baking, weren't you? That's the only reason you would wake me up in the middle of my nap. Not only that but you're sweating and had some flour still in your hair" she scoffs looking at my hair. Shit...She gets up and makes her way back to the kitchen to see the mess...that doesn't exist. "W-what? I smell food though..."
She turns around to see a chocolate cake there just starting right at her. Looking at the cake and me, I could tell she was questioning its presence. I gesture for her to get closer which she did and then just sits down. Slowly she grabs a fork and gets a good chunk to inspect.
~3RD POV~
This has to be a fuck'n joke right? He couldn't even cook an egg like at all until I taught him, (Y/n) though as she looks at the even layers and nice icing. It didn't seem to have anything wrong with the presence and yet she didn't want to trust the flavor. In slow motion, she lifts the fork with cake closer to her mouth.
"Well..." Cole starts now getting worried over his girlfriend, she has been frozen for the last three minutes which was making him worry that he ended up killing her. Luckily, (Y/n) moves her head to look up at him with the hugest smile on her face that he has ever seen on her face.
"Cole...THIS IS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE" (Y/n) replies as she rants about how good this cake was and how it could even compete with Zane's angel cake. Just as she was going to rant more the ninja just so happen to decide to come back home, just in time too. "Hey guys, welcome back. Oh please, you have to taste this cake! Like...right now do it."
Confused yet intrigues the eight each takes a fork with cake and soon took a bite of their slices. It was quiet for a moment before they began to gobble down the cake until there were only crumbs. Soon it was receiving praise that it was the best cake they had in a while. Hell, even Zane said it was amazing and it deserves the praise it was receiving.
"Oh (N/n), you outdid yourself this time," Jay said with a huge smile on his face. The lovebird glance at each other before smirking back at the gang.
"Actually Jay...truth be told it wasn't me...It was actually..."
"COLE GET THE FUCK UP ALREADY!!"
Immediately the Earth Ninja's half-sleeping body hit the ground hard and could only now be fully awake from the sudden feeling of pain. Sitting up he looks around only to see his girlfriend looking at him unamused expression written on her face. Rolling her eyes, she helps Cole to his feet and pulls him out of his room. It was until he saw the other ninja wearing the same clothing as in his dream.
"We're leaving you in charge of the bounty, so you all better not do anything stupid. I'm talking to you COLE"
