A/N: Hey there people! Thank you so much for reading. 12 reviews for only 2 chapters is so awesome X)

I hope you enjoy this fluffy little chapter, as our favourite couple interacts more….and has a couple of babies together. Am I moving too fast? Aw hell no! :D

Mai finally reached Naru with his cup of tea. She smiled at him, almost about to say "You're welcome"—but the teen heard nothing. Naru simply raised his eyebrow and took the cup from her, sipped it and made a face of disapproval.

Mai felt her eyebrows twitch in annoyance. Don't, she scolded herself. Don't say anything.

"This is definitely one of the worst teas I've ever had." The subject of her annoyance remarked.

Well. That did it.

The 16-year-old began yelling and cursing him for being such a jerk. He ignored her pointedly, sipping at the tea as they walked to the parking lot. When Mai finally stopped yelling, Naru eyed her with his usual placid countenance.

"Why do you want to do this?" he asked her suddenly.

She looked at him in surprise, smiling at him and forgetting all about why she was mad at him. She shrugged and said, "Dunno, it just seemed to me that you must have missed out on a lot in your life."

Naru just responded with silence, pondering over what this strange girl had said.

"Are you free now?" Mai asked him, albeit a little shyly.

The smug look on his face returned, and he smirked. "You are very red in the face right now. You're blushing at how handsome I am."

"Sh-shut up, you narcissistic…..narcissistic…..turtlebutt!" she cried out.

She heard a muffled noise from Naru that sounded vaguely like a chuckle. He hid it well behind his hand as he mimicked a cough. Mai giggled.

"I ran out of insults, okay!" she said sheepishly.

"I'm going home now," Naru said.

"B-but it's only noon!" she whined.

He folded his arms, and made a show of considering her offer. On the inside though, he really wanted to go somewhere and do something.

"Well, I suppose that will do. What do you have in mind?" he said, carefully not letting his emotions show.

"The amusement park!" Mai said, with stars in her eyes.

"I've never been to one," he replied flatly.

The brunette looked stumped. "Seriously?"

"Do I really have to repeat everything I say? I know you're pretty daft, but is your case that bad?"

"Shut up, Naru the Narcissist! Now let's head to the Sakura Amusement Park!" she pumped a fist in the air.

"How do you expect to do that?" Naru said, amusement in his eyes.

Mai hesitated for a moment. "Um….yeah! We can catch a bus!"

Naru's family was rich, and he had therefore never used public transport in his life. He was obviously not going to tell Mai this. He watched as she happily skipped in front of him, chattering about how he would love the park. He felt himself growing bewildered at his sudden change in behaviour—talking to a stranger, accepting a stranger's offer, actually being pleased to find a friend—something he hadn't even dreamed that he would do. Naru had declared himself as a sociopath, but he realised that with only one year to his life, he didn't really care about supressing his emotions or bothering about status quo. He'd never lived a normal life, forget living a life without rules or worries.

He walked silently behind Mai as they walked to the bus station outside the hospital. The station was filled with people of all kinds—students, old people, office goers and children. Speaking of students—

"Mai." He called out to her. She looked over her shoulder, smiling slightly that he used her name with no honorifics. She mentally shook her thoughts away; he probably didn't use honorifics because he had no respect for her in the first place.

Naru watched in fascination as Mai's expression turned from happy to a petulant frown in a few seconds. He wondered what she was thinking, then shrugged it off realising that he didn't care.

"Yes, Naru-chan?"

He winced. "Don't you have school to go to?"

"Well I do, but I go to school only when I feel like it." She grinned toothily.

Naru scoffed at her. "What was I expecting anyway? You definitely appear to be a delinquent anyway,"

Mai's eyes widened in anger. "What did you say, you narcissistic prick?!"

She tried to give him a karate chop, but Naru grabbed her wrist and twisted her hand behind her back. He let go immediately, realising that they were in a public space and people were turning to look at them. Mai rubbed her wrist, as she stalked to the ticket counter.

"Two tickets to Sakura Amusement Park, please." She asked.

Naru paid for both tickets despite her protests, saying that he owed her for the tea. As they waited for the bus to come, Mai felt her cheeks grow hot. It was like they were on a date. She looked up at Naru's handsome face, and decided otherwise. He must already be in a relationship.

"Do you have a girlfriend, Naru?"

Naru found himself getting less and less annoyed by her nickname for him. "No."

Her mouth was shaped in an O with surprise. Then the truth dawned upon her like a couple of bricks falling on her head. "You're gay?!"

The dark-haired boy almost choked, but quickly recovered and replied. "In that case, I would've found you attractive, Mai-kun."

He expected her to feel offended and try to hit him, but she guffawed loudly. She turned pink and had tears in her eyes—chocolate brown eyes that sparkled with mirth. Naru found himself staring at her, and quickly looked away, a small smile on his lips.

There was something nice about making this girl annoyed or happy, he thought as they boarded the bus that had just arrived. She was the kind of effusive person that Shibuya Kazuya had never been.

If only he knew of the pain and suffering Mai had gone through all her life.

The couple boarded the bus along with several other people. Mai expertly wove her way through the crowd, looking for seats. She spotted an empty bench at the very back. Naru was making his way very delicately through the crowd, avoiding touching them. She scoffed at his haughty behaviour and reached for his wrist, pulling him roughly through several people. Naru was too shocked to realise what was happening as she plonked him down on the seat next to him.

He began to give her his infamous cold glare, but Mai ignored him and said: "Stop acting like such a princess, Naru-chan."

From the way he behaved, the high-schooler inferred that he was probably a rich boy who'd never rode a bus in his life. She looked at him from the corner of her eye, blushing at how his handsome features were contorted into a small frown. Mai grinned, and looked out of the window, trying to ignore how their thighs were touching and how Naru had unconsciously put his hand around her seat.

What she didn't know, though, was that Naru was actually sending angry glares at a young man who had been staring at Mai. They got off at the park's stop, and Mai lead the way. At the entrance to the park was a huge banner which Mai read out aloud.

"Free entry for couples every Tuesday!" she cheered, pumping her fist in the air.

"Well done, Mai. Now you can read full sentences too." Naru drawled, rolling his eyes.

"Shut up, Narcissistic. Today's Tuesday!" she said cheerily, nudging him.

"You're getting smarter by the moment."

"Idiot, we'll get free entry."

Naru froze. "We aren't a couple."

It was Mai's turn to roll her eyes. "No shit, Sherlock. But they—" she said, pointing at the women at the entrance. "Don't know that."

"I could just pay, if you're that stingy."

"That's the whole point, old man!" she said, giggling. "It's more fun this way. Now just come!"

She dragged him behind her to the entrance. There were two young women selling tickets at the entry gate, who perked up immediately on seeing Naru.

"Hello there, cutie." One of them said, winking.

Naru ignored her. Mai giggled and said, "We're together. Free entry, right?"

The other woman frowned at the young girl. "You two are a couple?"

Mai nodded, and Naru looked away. The first lady said, "It's not gonna be so easy, young lady. Couples do have free entry, but they have to take part in a contest together."

"Contest?" Both Mai and Naru asked at the same time, the latter not liking the sound of it.

"Well, yeah. It's part of every Tuesday's couple festival. The winners are declared the festival King and Queen, and win loads of fun stuff and goodies."

Naru grimaced. "No, Mai. Let's just get the—"

He stopped, seeing Mai make huge puppy dog eyes. "B-but….fun stuff and goodies~ "

The dark-haired man simply pushed past the two ladies at the entrance. Mai pumped a fist in the air, and did a celebratory tap dance.

"So…what do you want to do first, Naru-chan?" she quipped happily.

"Tea, Mai." The young man said simply.

The brunette sighed. It was going to be a tiring day.
