Hey so yeah this is a fic that was written for me by my BFF and she requested that I posted this for her :3 Here you go, amigos :D Enjoy it!
Valentine's day. Kaoru closed his eyes as he sat in the limo with his brother, waiting for the moment he'd see his girlfriend. No, she wasn't his girlfriend yet, but hopefully after today she would be. He snugged against his brother, seeking the comfort that Hikaru was all too happy to give.
"Stop worrying, Kao. I know she won't say no, and I know you know that too."
"Thats's easy for you to say. You have a girlfriend."
The elder stared at his brother with raised eyebrows. "Remember how difficult it was for us to get together? It'll be so much easier for you since you won't mess it up."
"Maybe... So," he started, deciding it would be best to leave this topic since he knew he wouldn't win despite his arguments. "What did you get Katie? It's your first Valentine's day together, isn't it?"
Hikaru smiled softly. "I'm taking her to Kyoto for the weekend. She mentioned that she'd like to go, so I thought it would be a good opportunity."
"That's sweet. But what will her mum say?"
"Already asked. She was fine with it. Becky was a little jealous, but that's nothing I can't live with. And before you ask, mum said it was okay too." he frowned slightly, his cheeks turning a pale pink as he looked away. "She did try to have the talk with me though, since it'll just be Katie and I."
Kaoru grinned devilishly. "Use protection."
"I hate you."
"Sure you do. Now get out; don't want to be late, do you?"
Katie and Andrea sat in class 2-A, already dressed in their uniforms. There wasn't really much need for them to stay in the music room after changing, especially since the twins weren't there. They usually arrived before them, but today was different. The pair had their ideas, of course, but couldn't be certain until the twins got there.
Which they just so happened to a few minutes before the bell. Katie grinned at her boyfriend as he walked in; the two shared a kiss before sitting down at their seats. Andrea, however, smiled at Kaoru widely.
"Morning. You're late today... everything alright?"
"I just woke up late. I was busy last night."
She frowned slightly. "Was it the maths? Because you really shouldn't have left it so late. Besides, you could have called me and I'd have helped."
"No, no, not maths. Hika helped me when we got it. I was just out doing some chores.
Just as the female was about to comment - since when did Kaoru ever do chores? - the bell rang. She shook her head, moving to sit down and get ready to start the school day.
"Come on, let's get some lunch."
Andrea looked up at where Kaoru stood in front of the desk. "What did you have in mind?"
He held his hand out, smiling widely. "You'll see."
Andrea took his hand and Kaoru pulled her up. She giggled as he pulled her towards the cafeteria.
When they got in the room, Andrea was dragged towards the front of the queue, where their lunches were quickly handed to them on cream plastic trays. Andrea looked down at Kaoru's plate to find his favourite lunch, tagliatelle with salmon, mushroom, spinach and parmesan cheese; however, when she looked at her own tray, she was suprised to see it covered with a large handkercheif. She frowned at the redhead.
"Can't I see what I'm eating?"
"Not til we sit down." was the reply, as Kaoru began to lead her outside.
"And where are we sitting?"
"You'll see."
The elder sighed and simply followed, as much as she wanted to argue, and, oh, would she argue, she knew should wouldn't get any further details from Kaoru.
It didn't take them long to reach the courtyard. Kaoru led Andrea to a secluded bench, hiden from sight, for the most part. The Hitachiin sat, leaving the tray on his lap before patting the unoccupied bench. She sat, also resting the tray on her lap. She tugged at the cloth.
"Can I take it off now?"
Kaoru, who had a mouthful of pasta, nodded. She pulled the fabric off of her tray to reveal a roast dinner, with a small slice of chicken, beef, pork, gammon and turkey, roast potatoes, some vegetables and a Yorkshire pudding, a few pot of various sauces and some gravy on the side.
"Roast dinner?"
He smiled, having swallowed his food. "I thought it'd remind you of England, of home."
She smiled back a little nervously, hesitating a little before pecking his cheek. "Thank you..."
He blushed, softly returning the kiss. The pair giggled nervously, cheeks darkened.
"So..." Kaoru began. "I have something for you..."
Andrea blinked. "Y-you do?"
He nodded, placing his tray on the ground to pull a small red box out of his pocket. Andrea, who had since placed her tray on the floor also, stared at the box. The younger smiled and gently placed it in her lap.
"For you..."
She quickly lifted the lid, her eyes widening at what she saw.
"Kaoru..."
"Want me to put it on for you?"
She nodded as he took the box, pulling out the golden bracelet and clasping it around her held-out wrist. Andrea held her arm up to take a closer look at the single charm that belonged to the piece of jewellery; a gold heart hung from the chain, engraved with a simple 'I love you'. Her eyes widened at the message.
"...You love me?"
He scratched the back of his neck, grinning a little nervously. "You mean to say that you hadn't figured it out yet? The genius Andrea didn't know?"
She frowned as she leaned in closer to him, taking his hand.
"Shut up." was her only response before she kissed him.
As they kissed, Kaoru knew that he had chosen his location well. No one was bound to see, were they?
Or so he thought. For peering over a large flowerbed were Katie and Hikaru, who had been watching the entire time. Katie smirked at her boyfriend.
"I told you she'd kiss him first." she whispered. "I believe you owe me something."
Hikaru frowned. "We are not kissing out here. It's cold."
"Stop being a wuss. You agreed to kiss me where ever we found them. Just because it's not making out at your house doesn't mean you're not kissing me now. Besides, they're kissing out here."
He huffed. "Stupid."
"Yes, thank you. Now kiss me, Hikaru."
Let's just say that Andrea and Kaoru were not impressed in the sligtest to see them kissing behind the same flower bed when they were returning their trays.
