Date Me!:
The Greatest Dating Game Show of All Time!
"Yo Chikusa! I'm back! Come out here and get your food!"
As if on cue, Chikusa stepped out of the shadows and waltzed casually towards his friend, Ken, who had already seated himself on the couch of Kokuyo Land.
"Pizza-flavored chips for dinner, again?" Chikusa picked up a family-sized bag of chips from the shopping bag Ken had brought back.
"You said you liked those, neh!"
"I'd rather have real pizza," Chikusa replied and fished through the bag some more, "I see you've bought more heart-shaped chocolates."
"Yeah..." Ken watched Chikusa open up the box of chocolates and pick one up, until he suddenly jumped onto Chikusa and snatched the chocolates and the box away from him. "Don't eat!"
"Why? Are they for Chrome-san?" Chikusa asked, surprised and amused.
"No! No way in hell!" Silence ensued.
"If you say so."
Ken twitched and glared at the other boy, while thinking of something to say. Chikusa just munched happily on the pizza chips.
"Speaking of that damn girl," Ken kept his eyes on the box of chocolates, "where is she?"
"Ah, she was invited to Haru Miura-san's house for a sleepover. Kyoko Sasagawa-san came to pick her up a couple minutes before you came."
"That girl has friends?"
"More friends than you."
"What did you say?"
"You heard me."
"E-eh... Kyoko-san, thank you for, um, i-inviting me!"
"No problem! I think you and I would be great friends, and great friends should hang out a lot! Including Haru, of course. And stop with all the formality; you can call me 'Kyoko-chan'!"
Kyoko and Chrome were on their way to Haru's house, their arms linked together. Kyoko was smiling brightly, happy because she knew what the other people around them were thinking: "My, look at those gorgeous girls!"
Chrome, on the other hand, took the stares they were getting the wrong way: "My, look at that beautiful girl on the right! The other eye-patch girl looks so out of place standing next to her."
They continued walking and talking, though most of their conversation was Chrome complimenting Kyoko. After about seven minutes, the pair reached their destination: a small house with a large garden.
"This," Kyoko pointed at the house, "is Haru-chan's house!"
"It's so pretty!"
They climbed up the steps to the porch and rung the doorbell, Chrome feeling excited and nervous. Almost immediately, they heard a dog barking, voices shouting, and footsteps shuffling, until the front door swung open to reveal Haru.
"Kyoko-chan, Chrome-chan! Welcome!" she exclaimed, revealing her stunning smile.
She led her guests in and showed Chrome around, who had never been to her house. After settling down, meeting her pets, having dinner, and putting on their pajamas (which was very embarrassing for Chrome, for she had never shown her body off to anyone), Haru announced it was time for the slumber party to begin.
"Um, Haru-chan, Kyoko-chan...what do people do in s-sleepovers?" Chrome shyly tapped her fingers together.
"I have no idea what boys do, but us girls talk and gossip!" Kyoko winked.
"Oh! Okay! What do w-we...talk about?"
Haru put a finger to her chin. "How about a scary story?"
"NO!" Kyoko and Chrome both shouted in unison, hysterically.
"No fun, no fun!" Haru waved her hand in the air.
"Why don't we just talk about boys?"
"Good idea!"
Chrome blinked. Boys?
"How about your crush on Tsuna-kun?"
Haru's cheeks and ears turned bright red, like they were glowing.
"Hahi? E-eh... we've already gone over that subject tons of times!"
"Tch. I, personally, think you'd look way better with Gokudera-kun!"
"Yuck! Kyoko-chan, do you like anyone?"
"No, not really. I think the closest I ever got to a boy was Lambo-kun!" The girls giggled, including Chrome. Then, Haru and Kyoko turned to Chrome, wicked smiles planted on their faces. "Who does Chrome-chan like?"
"E-eh?"
"Y'know... Like who would you marry, out of all the guys we all know?" Who would I marry?
"I...don't know a-any of the male gender t-that well." Haru and Kyoko gasped.
"Aren't you close with Ken, Chikusa, and Mukuro?"
"A little," Chrome blushed at the thought of 'Mukuro-sama'.
"You've never had a boyfriend, or a crush, or anything?"
"N-no...I never bothered," Chrome was flustered. Haru and Kyoko looked at each other.
"Kyoko-chan, are you thinking what I'm thinking?"
"You bet I am!"
"E-eh, may I know what you both are thinking?" Chrome asked, shyly.
"You'll find out, soon enough..."
Tsuna, Yamamoto, Gokudera, and Ryohei were spending the night together, having their own "slumber party", except they were actually sleeping. Out of the blue, Tsuna's cell phone started vibrating and blaring, waking up the four boys.
"Dammit! Yamamoto, turn your phone off!"
"Gokudera, it was Tsuna's phone!"
"Sorry, Gokudera..."
"No, Tenth! Don't apologize! It's my fault for getting mad!"
"Who the hell texts you in the middle of the night? That's annoying to the extreme!"
Tsuna looked down at his phone, squinting at the bright light.
"Haru...texted me."
"What's it say?"
Tsuna held the phone up so all the boys could see.
Subject:
Important!
Sender:
Haru Miura
Message:
Tsuna-kun! Tell everyone you know to tell everyone they know to watch the channel that shows "Haru Haru's Dangerous Interviews" every day starting tomorrow at 6PM! Tnx! BYE! :)
"That girl is so annoying."
"I wonder why we have to do this, though. It must be important," Yamamoto examined the text.
"Hmm."
The next morning, Chrome said her goodbye's to her new best friends, and thanked them for the night.
"It was so fun! We should do this again sometime! Oh, and Chrome-chan, come back to my house tonight at five-o'clock!"
"Another sleepover?"
"Not really.. You'll see. See you later!" Kyoko and Haru waved at Chrome.
Chrome smiled and continued her way home, but then she caught sight of two familiar people. "Ken? Chikusa? W-what are you doing here?"
The two said boys looked at the other in alarm, until Chikusa spoke up.
"Ah, you see, this idiot over here," he pointed at Ken, "was missing you, so he demanded to look for you."
He missed me?
"What? NO! You liar! I would never miss that ugly girl!" he looked at Chrome, "let's just get home. Someone at the gas station market told me that there was gonna be an interesting show on TV tonight on that channel that we guest-starred in for those silly interviews... We're finally gonna get to use that ol' TV!"
And the trio walked back to the Kokuyo Land.
At four-thirty, Chrome left Kokuyo Land to go to Haru's again, unaware of the events that were to happen that night. When, she arrived, Kyoko instantly gave her a dress to wear, fixed her hair, and added make-up to Chrome. Haru, then, brought her into a car and drove her to a big studio.
"Um, Haru-chan? Kyoko-chan?"
"Hurry, Chrome-chan! We don't have much time left!" The two girls pulled Chrome out of the car and into the studio, where crowds of people in headphones, with clipboards, and props were rushing about.
"W-what's going on...?"
"Wait here, Chrome-chan! When that nice man with the shirt that says 'Director' tells you to get onstage, just go through the double doors with the words 'Stage Three' printed on them!" Haru instructed.
"Good luck!" Kyoko and Haru blew a kiss at Chrome, and entered the "Stage Three" doors.
What's going on?
Chrome heard a loud cheer from the doors when her friends walked through, and loud music. The people around her were rushing about, telling each other things like, "turn up the sound a bit more!" or "zoom in on the audience!".
Am I going to be on...television?
She could now hear Haru and Kyoko's voices.
"Hi! Welcome to-"
"-The Greatest Dating Game Show of All Time!"
Am I going to be on...a dating show?
"I'm your host, Haru-chan!"
"And I'm your second host, Kyoko-chan!"
The "Director"-shirt guy is approaching me!
"Wondering who the lucky bachelorette is?"
"Give it up for...Chrome Dokuro!"
The "Director" pointed at Chrome and pointed to the Stage Three Door, "make a big entrance."
She slowly nodded, still confused, but walked up and pushed open the big doors.
"Give it up for...Chrome Dokuro!"
Ken dropped his bag of popcorn. Chikusa let his yo-yo fall.
"What?"
Dokuro was greeted with a whooping audience, bright lights, a hanging microphone, and Haru-chan and Kyoko-chan. She quietly walked up to where her friends were, wide-eyed, surprised, and scared, not daring to say a word.
"Chrome-chan! You're so cute!" Kyoko shouted into her mic.
"A-ah."
"Do you know what this is?"
"A...TV show?" The crowd started laughing, and Chrome blushed. I embarrassed myself again!
"You got that correct, but that's not enough detail!" Haru put her hand on Chrome's shoulder, "You are the star of the newest, greatest, best Dating Game Show ever!"
"E-EH?"
"This is how the game will be played. You see that big screen behind you?" Chrome turned around and faced...the big screen. The screen had a bunch of pictures of people, but the pictures were moving around too fast to tell who they were. "That screen has a list of the names of all of the boys- and some girls- in this small town."
"Whenever we say the word 'reborn', the screen will randomly choose a person from the list! The person that is chosen, will be your date for the day!" The crowd cheered.
"Then, I, Haru-chan, will go on my phone for Twitter, and ask my followers, 'What place should Chrome-chan and 'insert-name-here' go for a date?' The first answer will be the place they go on a date!"
"And then I, Kyoko-chan, will use my phone to contact the lucky guy and inform him, just in case he didn't know."
"The next day, our camera-guys will follow Chrome-chan and the date to wherever they go! When we come back for this show again at this channel and time every night, we will see how their date went!"
"At the end of this TV series, you, the audience, will vote on which date was the best! That man or woman will receive the Title and Bragging Rights of "Mister or Miss Right", and...a prize of ten-thousand dollars!"
Chrome gasped, and the crowd whooped.
"And now, we will choose our first date...after the break!"
"End scene!"
Loud music played, the crowd stood up and cheered, and Haru and Kyoko walked up to Chrome.
"Sorry we didn't tell you this earlier..." Kyoko told her. A man came in and gave each of them a water bottle.
"If you don't want to do this, you don't have to," Haru looked sad as she said that. Chrome really didn't want to do this Dating Show, but for the sake of her friends...
"I'll do this!"
The two hosts looked up at her. "For real?"
She nodded, determined.
"Great!"
"Takuya, the TV show you're watching is annoying. Please turn it off."
"Kyo-kun, I think you know who this is, though." Hibari focused his attention to the television.
"Chrome Dokuro!" He narrowed his eyes. "You're so cute!" "A-ah."
"Of course! It's Dokuro-san!" Takuya grinned at the TV set.
"Takuya, turn up the volume." Takuya hesitated, for he was pretty sure Hibari wasn't interested in Dating Shows, but grabbed the remote and raised the volume anyway.
"Do you know what this is?"
"A...TV show?" Hibari's mouth grew tighter and eyebrows furrowed as the Pineapple-bastard's vessel blushed and the crowd laughed.
The two watched the show silently until the commercial breaks appeared.
"Hah. Who knew Dokuro-san wanted to have a boyfriend?" Takuya laughed.
"Hn."
"And we're back on!"
"Hi, hi!"
Chrome was now seated on a couch, while the two hosts were standing up.
"Now, for the moment you all have been waiting for!"
"Who will be our lovely Chrome-chan's date?"
"Focus your attention to the screen! Now with all our might, let's shout 'reborn'!"
"One, two, three..." Chrome held her breath and shouted along with Haru, Kyoko, and the audience.
"Reborn!"
End of Scene
Hey again! I hope it wasn't that bad and confusing and OOC! I mean, it's frickin' three in the morning. -_-
So guys, here are the IMPORTANT THINGS YOU MUST KNOW:
I will have a poll up on my account, so I hope you can access it and (if you want) vote on whoever the first date for Chrome should be! :) If you can't find it, vote with a review or PM, I guess? (and yes, you may vote on a girl.)
I also wanted to tell you lovely people that this is my very first fanfic, so critics and reviewers, go easy on me, but also give me advice!
Review if you want; they are the motivation for me to keep writing! And before I forget, remember to tell me where you would want the couple to go on a date! (if you don't, then it's OKAY I'll just choose a place myself)
*I will update as soon as I can, with the info I need! (: Thank you all so much for reading!*
I love you! Have a great summer/day/week! R&R! I'll see you sooonnnnn!
