"Aw, c'mon Naoto-kun. It'll be fun!"
"I'm sorry, Rise-san, but I don't even have anyone to go with. If I came along with you and Souji-senpai, I'd just be a third wheel," Naoto apologized. Though, even if she did have someone to go along with, she still would have found some other excuse to not go with Rise and Souji on their date to the movies.
"Ooh, what what? Who's going on a date where?"
Naoto wanted to groan and pound her face on the table. She saw Chie and Yukiko making their way towards the table Rise and herself were sitting at. "Is someone going on a date?" The shorter brunette continued after setting her grocery bags on the table. Yukiko set her bags on the table as well, not long after Chie set hers. The taller second-year quietly waved at Rise, who quickly and quietly waved back with one of her "idol grins," and then turned towards Naoto and gave a silent nod of acknowledgement and hello, which Naoto returned as well.
"Is it Naoto-kun?" Chie asked excitedly.
Rise let out a sigh. "No," she responded. "It's Senpai and I who are gonna see a movie." She then turned to Naoto, who turned away to avoid making eye contact with the obviously disappointed idol. "I asked Naoto-kun to come, but she said that she didn't wanna be a third wheel."
Chie shrugged. "Well," she started, grabbing a seat from the side of the table. Yukiko came around to the other side of the table to take another seat. "I can kinda see where you're coming from, Naoto. I definitely wouldn't wanna be a third wheel either."
"But we could make it a double date!" Rise interrupted. Now Naoto really wanted to bang her head on the table. There was no way she was going to be able to get a date, not that she even wanted to or anything.
Yukiko snorted. "A double date?"
"Yeah!" the idol defended. "She could go with Kanji!" The black-haired teen gave a louder snort and began laughing. Her? With Kanji? Naoto began to blush, she didn't know why, though.
"Me? With Kanji-kun?" Naoto blurted out, becoming even redder. No, there was no way that could happen. Just the idea of her going on a date with anybody seemed impossible. Naoto wondered if Rise could even hear the things that came out of her mouth sometimes. "I highly doubt that would work out."
"Kanji, huh?" Chie said. Naoto began to blush even harder after the mention of the person she was being paired up with. She just wanted everybody to stop thinking about the general idea altogether. "Funny thing is," she started, "that could actually, probably work out."
Naoto pounded her hand against her forehead. She knew for a fact that she was really, really red at the moment. "Can we please stop with the discussion of this subject? Besides, do you really think Kanji-kun would say 'yes' to me?"
"Well, yeah," Rise said bluntly.
Naoto looked back at her with a raised eyebrow. "Have you even seen Kanji-kun around me?" Naoto asked. Chie and Yukiko looked over at her. "Because I haven't. He always leaves the moment I walk into the room."
"Y'know, that's actually becau-," Yukiko was cut off by an elbow in the rib from Rise.
Naoto gave the two a look and subsequently continued defending the reasons as to why she shouldn't go with Rise on her "double date."
"And even when we ARE in the same room, by some miracle, he never speaks to me, or even looks at me for that matter!"
"Jeez," Chie started. "You really have no clue, do you?"
What? "What? No clue of what? No clue of Kanji obviously not wanting to try to become friends with me?" Naoto was just about done with trying to convince the rest of the girls to let her go.
The second-year brunette let out a sigh. "So much for an ace detective, huh?" Yukiko let out a giggle, still rubbing the area where Rise's elbow had made contact with. Naoto raised an eyebrow at Chie's statement, but soon decided to shake it off. "Well, uh," started Chie again. "I guess Yukiko and I gotta jet. We still have to drop these things off at your inn, right?"
"Hm?" replied Yukiko, seeming to not know what Chie just said. "Oh," after a streak of realization. "Oh, yeah. We gotta go. See you guys later!" The two second-years stood up and grabbed the bags which they had left on the table. Yukiko gave a wave of goodbye to Rise, who then waved back, and gave another nod to the now stranded Naoto, who gave a nod back, not knowing if she would have wanted them to stay and ridicule her longer, or leave her alone with Rise.
"So...," Rise continued after the two left.
"No," quickly retorted Naoto. She promptly stood up, gave Rise one last nod of goodbye, and left. The detective could hear the idol's pleads as she left the Junes food court.
