Ex-V: I hope you like it!
Emi stood, trembling, in her room, in front of the mirror; bright red, bottomless, holding a tiny red thong up to her hips, staring at her reflection, eyes wide.
"N-No-!" She squeaked, at last, horrified, collapsing down backwards onto her bed, covering her face with both hands. "No, I can't, just kill me now-"
"It's just a date." Rika giggled, mischievously, sitting cross-legged on the bed behind her. "Nobody said you had to wear a thong, Emi-"
The hero squirmed, groaning, flushed, tugging her knees up to her chest, hiding her face. "Rikaaaa-"
The older woman hummed, delighted, crawling up beside her. "It's okay, Emi…You can admit it, nobody's going to find out…"
Emi's head snapped up, mortified, glowing red, meeting her friend's eyes; Rika stalled, smirking, in place, shaking her head, when Emi couldn't answer, choking on her breath.
"You want to be sexy for Maou-" The brunette teased, almost singing, smug, eyes drifting shut.
"S-Stop ittt-!" Emi squeaked, blushing furiously, horrified, covering her ears.
"Hey, Emi, I have a great idea-" The older woman chuckled, thrilled. "Why don't you go without any panties at all-"
"Rika-!" The hero shrieked, covering her crimson face with both hands, heart skipping a beat, steam pouring from her ears.
(Two hours later)
Emi fumed, standing outside at a local park, wrapping a thick cotton scarf around her neck, as drifting snowflakes fell around her.
Two hours! She hissed, furious, to herself. How can anyone ever be two hours late-?!
"Hey-!" Rika called out to the hero, pulling up in a car at the nearby parking lot, shutting her driver-side door.
Emi turned to her friend, gritting her teeth, as the brunette ran over.
"He's still not here-?" The older woman shook her head, chuckling dryly, breathing into her mittens, warming herself in the bitter cold.
"Still-!" Emilia groaned, adjusting her puffy woolen hat. "He'd better be dead, I swear to god-"
Rika seemed distracted, suddenly, staring off into the distance behind the hero, squinting. "Hey, What's that…?"
Emi shifted around, falling silent, following her friend's glance, curiously, seeing a TV crew and small crowd, by a broadcast van.
A moment of silence.
"I wonder what's going on-?" Emi tilted her head, fascinated, but Rika had already grabbed her, as the hero squeaked, protesting, and dragged her along, over to the Television crew.
As Rika elbowed and shoved her way through the crowd, with Emi, still faintly resisting, trying to dig her heels in, they came across a middle aged man, with a microphone, some kind of television personality, and a woman with blond hair and bright makeup; They were asking a young couple personal questions, regarding their love lives, in front of a camera crew, huddled behind them.
The couple seemed to be feeling somewhat awkward, and the girl looked anxious to leave the scene. "H-Hey, this isn't going to be on TV, right-?" She asked, hesitantly, tugging her boyfriends arm.
"Oh, no. Of course not-" The middle aged man answered, smiling pleasantly, waving his hand dismissively. "This is a private interview, for a survey we're conducting, It won't be shown on air-"
The girlfriend seemed highly relieved, and the boyfriend shrugged. "Is that It? Can we go-?"
"Yes, certainly-" The blonde woman nodded vigorously, sweetly, almost shooing them away, before turning to the cameras. "Thank you so much for your time-!"
The young couple wandered off, looking somewhat confused, and The Anchor man turned to the blonde. "Is that enough footage-?" He wondered, seemingly unsure.
"One more would be great-" She replied, thumbing her chin, facing the crowd. "Is anyone else here in a relationship-?"
Rika's eyes widened, excitedly, and she shoved Emi forwards by the shoulders, as the hero gasped, horrified. "Yes, Talk to Emi! She has a boyfriend-!"
"N-No-!" Emilia choked, breathless, heart skipping a beat, eyes wide, but the Anchor man and his partner jumped over to her, thrilled, ignoring her summarily.
"Thank you so much for Volunteering, Emi! Please tell us, How many men have you dated-?" The man held out the microphone, shoving it in her face, insistent.
The hero whined, quietly, whimpering nervously, turning slightly away, uncomfortable, faintly red. "O-One-"
The blonde raised an eyebrow, surprised, silent for a moment. "Is that right? For such a beautiful young lady, I'm surprised… Haven't you ever had another crush-?"
"N-No…" Emi whispered, incredibly nervous, heartbeat racing, wringing her hands, face heating up. "I've…I've only ever loved him-"
The blonde gasped, folding her hands, delighted, and the anchor grinned, eyes narrowing at her. "Incredible! How long have you two known each other, then-?"
Emi squeaked, thoughts swirling, blushing, desperate to escape at any cost, looking anxiously away. "A-All my life-"
The news anchors seemed overwhelmed, for a moment, and the man turned to the cameras, whispering "Are you getting this-?"
Rika's eyes glinted villainously, and she stepped forward, next to Emi, smiling warmly. "That's right! She's been chasing him for years-"
Emi yelped, flushed, turning to her friend, horrified, eyes wide. "N-No! We…W-We-!"
Nobody seemed to hear her, over the sound of loud Ooh's and Ahh's, from the crowd and Camera men, as the Anchors stepped closer to Emi, excitedly, shoving the microphone towards her, enraptured. "What a touching love story! Have you been waiting here for him, in the park-?"
Emilia froze, briefly, in place, and hissed, gritting her teeth, glowing red, eyes narrowing, as a vein throbbed in her forehead, suddenly irritated, forgetting where she was and what she was doing. "Yes-!" She snapped, crossing her arms, huffing, turning half away. "For two hours-!"
More Ooh's and ahh's, but Rika grabbed the Hero's shoulders, still grinning mischievously. "That's right! She would wait forever for him-"
The Blonde clapped her hands, overcome, tearing up, as Emi squeaked, furiously red, waving her hands desperately, strangled, mewling faintly, heartbeat hammering, protesting incoherently.
"How adorable-!" The blonde sighed, wiping a tear from her eye, waving the Camera crews forward, and they stepped a bit closer. "Do you think he'll marry you-?"
