Okay everyone, so this is my first fanfiction ever, so I hope you'll forgive me if it's not quite up to par with some people's standards.I got inspired to write this after reading "Moments" by momoxtoshiro, so I'm planning on putting Asuna and Kirito (Kazuto if you're particular about it) into some fun little shorts. I am a male writer, but I hope that doesn't effect how people look at the story. Who says that guys can't write fluff? :3 Also, just a note that I am aware of the fact that in Japan people don't get two month Summer breaks, however for creative purposes, this is what I'm going with, so don't give me crap in the reviews about it. Also, this is not chapter one, as it clearly states, this is the prelouge to the chapters ahead.

Prolouge: The beginning of Summer.

"Kirito-kun!" Called Asuna happily as she dashed over to where Kazuto was standing; right in front of the same bench that they had spent so many lunch breaks sitting, laughing, eating, and even sometimes making the other blush, something that both enjoyed seeing one each other's faces equally as much.

"Asuna-san!" He called back, equally as thrilled to see his one and only love, Asuna. Her chestnut hair had a natural shine to it, combined with the smile that she wore with her big, hazel eyes that made Kazuto thank the heavens that she was his every time he was allowed to see the sight.

It had taken so much pain, so much struggle and heartbreak for the two of them to break free of the virtual world that they had been trapped inside for two long and painful years. But each knew, without even doubting it for a single moment, that where they were now-together and filled with the utmost sense of joy because of the other-was entirely worth what it had taken to get there.

All the pain-which was both physical and emotional-and tears, all the fighting to save one another, and even almost dying, neither of them would have traded it for anything because of what they shared now because of it.

"Kirito-kun!" Exclaimed Asuna once more as she flung herself into her boyfriend's open arms and wrapping her arms around his neck. Kazuto was only just able to open his arms and brace to catch her by the time that she was there-or at least, enough so that he wouldn't fall over backwards onto the concrete they stood on at that moment.

"Kirito-kun I'm so excited!" she said, the joy in her voice would have been impossible for anyone not to have noticed, "It's finally Summer vacation!"

Indeed, only ten minutes earlier, the schoolbell had rung for the final time that it would for that school year, and now for the next two months, Asuna and Kazuto had the freedom to enjoy doing anything they wanted to, and had been planning things out for weeks in anticipation of the next two months, and whatever days weren't planned for, they would come up with something. They both knew, without even having to say it, that this summer was going to be their best one yet.

Kazuto smiled as he gave his girlfriend a gentle-but still clearly quite overjoyed-squeeze, "I know," he replied, reflecting the joy that she was expressing with his own equal happiness,"I can't wait for all the fun things we've planned!" Often times, Kazuto was not so open about his feelings, even ones that were this positive, but he treasured Asuna so dearly that he couldn't hide how he truly felt when he was with her; and even if he did try his best at hiding it, it was likely that Asuna would have ended up calling him on it. She had know the guy for two years; if any of his friends knew what he was thinking or feeling when they were together, it was her.

Kazuto let the embrace last just a few moments longer before he finally relinquished his grasp on her-if only a little-to be able to look his love in the eyes, both smiling from ear-to-ear with excitement and joy over not just what they had planned, but the time that they would be allowed to share together. They would make absolutely sure that this Summer would be remembered by both of them for the rest of their lives.

"Kirito," Asuna said, her smile loving and kind, caring deeply about the person that she looked upon.

"Yeah, Asuna?" He asked, his expression almost mirroring her own.

"Have I ever told you that I love you?"

At this Kazutos cheeks heated up a little bit and his eyes looked away with a bit of sheepishness to them, "Well," he replied, sounding just the slightest bit embarrassed by the cute tone of voice that she spoke to him with, "I think you may have mentioned that before."

His sheepish reply earned a giggle from Asuna and she gave him a kiss on the cheek with a clearly audible "Mwah~" to it, which inevitably caused his cheeks to heat up a bit more noticeably.

"Aw, Kirito, you're blushing!" cooed Asuna, clearly ejoying the effect she was having on him. If Asuna's goal was to make Kirito's face start looking like a tomato, she was certainly accomplishing the mission. Kirito's cheeks were a very deep red, not being helped any by Asuna's playful little comments.

Kazuto knew he had to make a comeback, he could feel his cheeks were a lot warmer than they had been a moment ago, and he wasn't going to let Asuna go without dishing some red onto her cheeks as well.

"Well," he replied, his voice sounding as embarrassed as he looked, "Have I ever told you that I love you even more?"

Now it was Asuna who's cheeks lit up with an almost bubblegum-like pink as a surprised look came over her face momentarily before her face started to look as sheepish as Kazuto's; clearly she had not expected the comeback, which made Kazuto chuckle as he smiled and returned her affectionate kiss with his own, but not on her cheek. Instead his lips had shot straight for hers, and they had hit their mark spot on as they connected for a brief moment before he departed from the kiss-admittedly with some reluctance not just from him, but from her as well.

But the positive part was that Kazuto had succeeded in making his girlfriend's cheeks as red as his had been, which he decided to push a little further by cooing, "Aw, now you're blushing!"

Asuna felt her cheeks heat up even more with embarrassment, "J-jeez, Kirito-Kun," she said as she looked bashfully downwards, "does everything have to be a contest with you?"

Kazuto was far too thrilled in the results of his quest to be bothered by such a comment, but instead used his wit to go even further by responding with a cheerful, "What can I say, I love winning." He then let out a small chuckle before adding as he lifted her chin up to look into his lover's eyes, "But I love you more than I love winning."

Asuna sighed, happy, embarrassed, and even a little playfully annoyed by his honest reply. "Oh you," she said with a playful roll of her eyes and a smile that creased her lips once again, but didn't add anything more; she figured it would only cause him to end up making her blush again, and her cheeks were only just starting to relax as his had already.

"So," he said, the joyfulness that had been there before now finding its way into his voice again. "What do you want to do first?"
