Once A Year Every Year

by Kaylie98

When a young Kaito's marriage proposal to Meiko was refused, he promised to make her fall in love with him- by doing one romantic thing for her every year. Here is a collection of Kaito's attempts and perhaps successes at winning the fiery girl's heart. KAIMEI collection! Please read and review!

1. The Decision

Meiko and Kaito are my all-time favorite Vocaloid couple! I'm trying to make them more popular by writing Fanfics for them, and I'm finding this rather difficult. Curse my lazy updating! So I thought something like this would be easy and help get me started. Should be fun to write! : )

ONCE A YEAR EVERY YEAR Chapter 1: The Decision
**************************

When they first met, all the adults in the town knew they would get along well. Meiko, with her fiery temper and surprising compassion, Kaito with his cool, calm exterior and innocent idiocy, would surely balance each other out. They were not mistaken.

One worry of the adults, though, was that Kaito would never learn to act on his own. Meiko's somewhat controlling demeanor always overrode Kaito's slow growing self-confidence. At times she could pull him around like a dog on a leash- literally! His trademark blue scarf was now rather stretched from all the times she had tugged it.

Their worries vanished later. Kaito had an incredibly bold side hidden in him. He would form a plan, or get an idea, and stick to it like a leech. No matter what Meiko said or did, he would not admit to being wrong.

It was this that began Kaito's romantic tradition, and this that kept him at it for a loooong time. All of it began one cool spring day, during a dinner party held outside.

"Meiko, I'm going to marry you someday."

The predicted pause lasted a few seconds, before breaking as all the adults laughed. Six year-old Meiko sat, perched on her garden chair, one eyebrow raised and one leg crossed over the other. "Oh, you think so?"

"Yes." The blue-haired seven year- old said determinedly, setting down his glass of lemonade.

"Well you can keep thinking that way, 'cause I'm never getting married." Meiko stated, leaning back as the adults chuckled again. She smirked.

After a while, they ended up away from the party, playing with the swing tied to a large tree. Meiko at the moment was pushing while Kaito swung, yelling gleefully.

"I meant what I said, Meiko." He said after a few minutes.

"What?" Meiko's young mind had already filed the memory of their last conversation as 'Useless'.

"I'm going to marry you someday. I really like you, and I think I'd like to marry you."

Meiko snorted, giving an unnecessarily hard push. "And I meant what I said, I'm never getting married."

"Is that so?" Kaito asked coolly.

"Yes."

"Well then, I'll have to change your mind." He decided.

A derisive laugh from Meiko failed to change his mind. "Oh sure, so tell me, what are you going to do?"

"Here's what I'll do. I'll do one romantic thing for you every single day for the next few years until you can't help but love me. Then by the time I'm finished, you'll love me so much that you'll marry me."

"Wanna bet?"

"Alright."

"Fine, loser has to do all the winner's chores for a year!"

"Fine!"

"FINE!" Meiko yelled, and shoved him off the swing.

Kaito jumped up and kissed her on the cheek. "Alright, year one if finished!" He said, and was promptly knocked out by the tire swing thrown by Meiko.

Yeah, pretty short, but I think it was alright. At least it got the story started. All of the chapters will be pretty short, if I can control my rambling. Reviews are kindly appreciated, and flames are allowed. Sayanora!
