Date

'Mai, tea.'
'Hai!!'
I nodded. Personally, I'd wait for a please but debated against it. Probably because I'll never hear it or I'll just get insulted. This day is too good for a bloodbath. Mornings like today are pretty normal. My boss, Kazuya Shibuya, also known as narcissist Naru, orders tea every morning. He never changes the usual greeting. If he did, we'd think he would be like possessed or something. This to my knowledge is definitely impossible.
I don't call him Naru for fun… oh no, he's Naru because he's a narcissist, so in control, 17 yrs. Old, and he has an IQ of who-knows-how-high. Wait…….. Did I mention that he's good looking? With his blue eyes, tall and lean body, and an I-don't-ever-crack, so-don't-dare-try-me attitude? Now….. What kind of girl would fall for a boy like that? sigh sad to say but girls like me. And just about every girl he hasn't spoken to yet. Why? Because he doesn't tolerate people not on his level. Which, trust me, is a lot. But, I do know that he doesn't like me back. That's for sure. He has Masako. Who has everything a girl wants. Fame, fortune, and a man in black. (Naru) Tonight, she'd probably invite him in a restaurant, overlooking the valley. 'oooohhhhhh… Naru-chan, don't you just love the view…' it hurts me to think of this.
'Mai, TEA'
I should be getting back to work.
As I hurry to fix Naru and Lin's tea, I remember that tonight is Christmas Eve. Great. my mood suddenly dampens. I then went to Lin's office and hand him his tea and fruits.
'Thanks. Taniyama-san' Lin said without tearing his eyes away from the computer screen. I swear. Something's wrong with Lin. It's probably because he stayed with Naru far too long.
'No problem. Lin-san' I then went to Naru's office. Put down tea and no longer waited for a reply. For a moment there, I thought I saw a surprised look in his face; nah, must have been my imagination.
Just when I came out, Ayako, bou-san, and Masako came filing in. (talk about timing.)
'This place is not a party house.' Naru said just about to go to the kitchen.
But Masako however was not worried, seeing her beloved, tripped, and landed graciously in his chest.
You are so dead, Masako.
Now that would be pretty easy, wouldn't it? Too catch Naru's attention. But I'm not that forward. Even if I did try, he probably would just insult me. sigh. See how my life is?
'Yo, Mai. What are you doing tonight?' Bou-san came up to me and asked.
'Are you going on a date?' Ayako followed suit.
While Masako was holding his hand, Naru secretly listened to the conversation regarding Mai.
'Nope, I'm not going anywhere tonight.'
I seriously pity myself. 16 and still a loner. But really, I can't help it if the guy I like doesn't like me back.
'Then I'd love to take you out.' Bou-san said, only to piss Ayako off and Mai knew that.
Thwack!!
'She's too young for you, you old idiot!!' Ayako said angrily while Bou-san was rubbing the sore spot on his head.
Naru's POV
'Naru-chan, how would you like to go to dinner with me tonight??' Masako giddily asked.
Normally I would say yes, but hearing Mai had no date, I debated against it. I'd have cursed the monk and kill him if needed, when Ayako hadn't beaten me to it first. Yes, I'm a loner, I don't show my feelings, and I don't care much about others. But with Mai, I can feel my control losing from my grasp. I denied it at first, pretended not to think about it, but then, I couldn't stop it anymore. I stood back and allowed my feelings for the brunette grow. Now, I can't stop thinking about her.
'So Naru-chan, how about dinner?' Masako asked. Pulling me out of my reverie.
'Not today, Hara-san.' I said. I knew everyone's eyes were on me. Even my usually stoic assistant, Lin (who stepped out of his room when he heard the noise.), was watching. Particularly Mai.
Mai's POV
Nani?? Masako's face was that of sadness and regret. Though it bothers me why Naru, rejected Masako's offer to dinner. Their faces… oh gosh their faces…
Ayako looked totally surprised. Takigawa looked happy, while Lin snickered.
(Lin+emotion shocking)
I probably look happy, no, not happy, pure dazzling.
'Well, see you later. Ayako and I are going somewhere!!' Takigawa said and I smiled.
Since Masako already left after that encounter, no one was left than Naru, me, and Lin.
This is my chance……………………………………
'Ne, Naru-chan since you're not going anywhere tonight…………………….
(after a very, very long pause)
…………………..would you like to go to dinner with me??'
I fidgeted nervously. You can't blame me. Trying ever so hard not to look at his deep, blue eyes, and failing miserably.
'See you at six.' Naru said and walked away.
But not before I saw the smile that played on his lips. Then again, it must have been my imagination……………
Yup, this day just gets better and better…………………………………
