"What was that?" The boyish idol murmured, looking over her shoulder. The girl motioned off towards the bushes but was pulled back by the blonde idol who was still clinging onto her date's arm.
"What's the matter, Makoto-kun." Miki questioned pulling the girl towards the direction of yet another ride. "Come on, let's go on that one~" Tugging on the girl's sleeve before she was willing to drop her suspicions.
"The coast is clear." Pushing the leaves apart for a better look.
"Takane-san. I don't think this is such a good idea." The shy girl whispered, following the silver haired idol's lead and poking her head out from under the plant.
"Non-sense." Takane said, postioning a pair of binoculars infront of her face. "Do not forget Yukiho, Makoto is just as unexperience in dating as you and I. It is of best interest if we were to watch their every move."
Though the girl's reason was understandable, Yukiho still objected, but only verbally. In all honestly, the brunette just wanted to see what was happening as well. Hopping from one location to another; hiding behind trees, garbage cans and even behind those theme park characters that were posing for little children. The two idols tailed the "couple" as made their way throughout the park.
"Makoto-kun!" Miki playfully tugged, pointing at one of the prizes in the game booth. "Look!"
It was a big teddy bear, about the size of a small child, with black fur and gray glasses, sitting on the furthest corner of the top shelve.
The blonde gave out a small giggle. "Heh. It looks just like Honey." Smile fading from the girl's face.
"You really miss the Producer, huh?" Makoto smiled slightly, placing a hand over Miki's shoulder. "Maybe you two should just make up."
"No way!" The blonde retaliated. "If Miki saw him right now, she'd give him a punch! Right in the gut!" Miki said, faced puffed up and fist in the air.
"Is that so?" The boyish idol laughed. She quickly pulled out a few hundred yen from out of her back pocket. "Well then-" The girl said placing the money on the booth counter. She firmly gripped one of the toy rifles and placed in front of her, already aiming down one of the targets.
"Ne? Makoto-"
Bang!
The first target was immediately shot down. "Yes!" The dark haired idol shouted in excitement.
"Amazing Makoto-kun!"
Shot after shot, targets began to fly off the selves. And only once did she miss, when a couple of fans, who has just noticed the star, came up to her screaming, interrupting the following shot. Thankfully the owner was kind enough to disregard it.
The series loud gun shot came to an end when the fifth pellet was ejected, empting the gun from all its ammon. "Five outta five! That was some pretty good shooting, kid! Haha! Claim your prize!" The owner laughed out loudly, followed by some squeals and shrieks from the background.
The idol motioned towards the bear and gently picked it up. She spun around presented the stuff thing to the blonde. "Right in the gut, right?" She said giving off one of those goofy smiles of hers.
The blonde couldn't help but laugh. She playfully gave the stuffed bear a jab to the stomach and continued laughing, tears forming in her eyes.
"Love is like...the feeling of yearning for the moon."
The shy girl recalled as she continued watching the two idols from afar. Takane... is this what you meant? She placed a hand over her chest and gently bit her lower lip. "Makoto." She absent-mindly mumbled under her breathe.
"What's the matter, Yukiho?" The silver haired idol glanced over at the other girl, removing the binoculars from her vision.
"Huh?" The brunette questioned completely unaware of her own actions. "Oh!" I-It's nothing. Really." She tried to reassure her friend. Yukiho lowered her head for a moment before returning her gaze to the dark haired idol; watching her mingle with the blonde. It's nothing.
Hours passed and the once clear blue sky soon became tainted with patches of orange and pink; night was approaching. And just like the darkening skies, the park began to change as well. The place was engulfed in sounds of rattling metals doors and the pitter patter tapping sounds of equipment being put away, signaling the closing of the morning rides and stands. But just as they closed, new ones began to emerge. Lights began to flicker on, one by one, lighting up the island once again.
"Haaa~" The blonde gave a sigh of relief as the two made their way out of the night time crowd. "Miki's exhausted!" She said stretching out before flinging herself onto a nearby bench.
"Heh, yea." The boyish idol half heartedly laughed before sluggishly placing herself next to her date. Unlike her green eyed partner, she had been completely drained of her energy long ago.
"Haaa~" The girl breathed out again. "Miki feels a whole lot better now." She looked at her dark haired friend, giving her a smile, before adverting her attention towards her other, fluffier friend. The blonde gave off another grin before picking up the stuffed companion. She teasingly poked the glasses that were planted of the bear's snout. "Miki shouldn't have been so hard on Honey, huh?" Makoto opened her mouth to say something but immediately stopped herself, not knowing how to respond. She waited for the other girl to say something to break the awkward moment, but all was quiet. They sat there in silence for a moment before Miki finally decided to get up. "Mm! That's it! Miki's going to make up with Honey!"
Surprised by the girl's sudden decision, Makoto got up as well. "Um, do you need me to go with you?" She blurted whatever came to mind.
The blonde shook her head. "Nah, Miki needs to do this alone." Just as the girl was walking back to the hotel, she remembered something and quickly ran back before she made much distances. Thankfully Makoto was still there.
"Ne, Miki? You forget something?" Noticing the girl running back.
"Just one thing!" Miki said before the other had the chance to say anything else. She quickly leaned forward, closing the gap between the two.
"Oh my." Takane gasped, alerting the girl besides her. She removed the instrument from her face and looked over at Yukiho, who was struggling to see above the crowd.
"I can't see!" The brunnette cried, trying to wiggle her way through the people. The girl's eyes grew wide as she finally managed to make her way past the bunch and saw what was happening. The two idols were face to face, blonde clearly leaning towards the dark haired girl and not a single inch between them.
Yukiho quickly took a step back before retreating the way she came.
"Yukiho!" Takane called out, but the girl was gone. The idol quickly packed her things before heading back to the hotel, knowing that it will be where she will find the brunnette.
Miki swiftly leaned forward and planted a kiss on the other girl's cheek. "Thanks for the date, Makoto-kun." She said in a softer voice.
The dark haired girl couldn't help but blush a little. She slightly distanced herself from the other girl and gave a smile.
"It was my pleasure, Oujo-sama." Jokingly grabbing the blonde's hand and reciting the line in a "prince-like" way. But seconds later she couldn't help but apologize, laughing a little at herself. "Heh, sorry. I just thought it was something I should say." She said while ruffling her hair.
Miki gave off another chuckle once again. "Thank you." The girl said once more. "I'll see you tomorrow, kay!"
"Kay!" Makoto waved back, watching the girl disappearing into the distance. She released a sigh of relief. I'm glad Miki's feeling all better now. The girl began walking. I should head back too and tell Yukiho and Takane the good news. She thought while smiling to herself. I wonder if those two had any fun today.
A/N : So that's chapter two! Oddly enough, I had some trouble protraying Takane, so hopefully protraying her as the "Mischevious Oujo-Sama" sort of character was a good idea.
Again I give much credit to the subbers for the episode because once again, I used a dialogue from the show.
I do apologize for posting this rather late. I was planning on uploading this about last week but things came up. It was suppose to be a LOT longer too, but I kinda chopped off the end bit and rearranged it into chapter 3. Hopefully after all my tests and papers are over, I can finish off chapter 3 with a "bang".
Until then, I thank you all for reading this and please review!
