Monday, the day when everyone goes back to work or go back to school. Unfortunately the weekend ended so quickly. Most people would be disappointed. But out of all the people, you were looking forward for Monday ever since yesterday. When you woke up this morning in your bed from your apartment, the memory of the confession came into mind. Even though you met Kawai about two days ago, you still fell in love with her ever since that talk at the Sports'in'Buy. What made the situation even happier was that she felt the same way. But there was one thing, why would she fall in love with you? Since the date was planned to be today after classes were finished for the day, you would ask her just that. That date would almost be like a way to hang out with someone, especially when the date takes place at a karaoke rental building.

When it comes to dates, first you would have to take it easy. Just like baby steps, first you would start with something simple like something affordable. As the relationship progresses probably like a full year of dating, then it would be best to sometimes take her on a bit more of an expensive place. Like a fancy restaurant for example, only problem is that you'll need enough money to pay the amount due.

Kawai wasn't sure of going to a karaoke rental at first. But as soon as you explained the way private karaoke rentals worked, she managed to calm herself. That's when she agreed to go with you as the first official date.

At the Keijo academy...

Kawai and her two friends can be seen training with the other elites by the side of the pool. The elites trained separately without the beginners. As for the elites the training was way intense and complex than the training the beginners received. The stadium was right next to the academy faced with the many windows of the classrooms. Where every student can see the elites in training through the window. For example just like how Nozomi would always do before she became an elite.

The training at the time was to group up into three and try to hit the retired professional Keijo player, Nagisa Ujibe. It was often rare even for the elites to give any physical contact with her. Just like what she would always say:

"They slowly get better day by day."

When it came to Kawai's team who were the last team to have their turn, Mio would whisper to each other for any strategy. As it was done, the three separated from each other and surrounded Nagisa.

"Strategy here, huh? Let me see how it turns out."

The three walk around the edge of the land while making eye contact with the retired Keijo player. Each second that was counted, the girls walked faster than they first did. When ten seconds had passed, the three were now jogging, then at fifteen, they were running around the land. Rin was the one who would always run the fastest, so she was two feet behind Kawai and shortly, she was then two feet away from Mio as well. Rin was now running half of capacity.

"If there were a limited time for you three to try to hit me then that would be a waste if time!" Nagisa commented.

She barely heard the movement of someone approaching her. Rin was behind her, about to strike her with her rear. Nagisa managed to dodge it by backing off, but she forgot that one of the girls were still running around the land. Mio took her chance to hit her as well, but it was dodged again. Rin ran quickly as possible to the retired Keijo player and tried hitting her again. At the same time, Mio tried striking Nagisa again. But to their dismay, she dodged both attacks again. Mio and Rin started getting a bit annoyed by her incredible dodging abilities. So they tried attacking her again at the same time repeatedly. But, none of those hits even made contact with her body.

"Try hitting me today, not tomorrow girls!" Nagisa said.

"We're trying!" Rin said.

Soon, Mio started slowing down her attacks due to the amount of energy she kept on using through her attacks. Rin however was kept on the same pace as she did before. With her increased lung capacity, she can last for a whole hour of either running or attacking.

Somethings missing. Wait! Where's that magenta-haired girl? Nagisa thought.

Things went to a different turn.

"Now Rin!" Mio said.

Mio and Rin swung their rears to Nagisa's feet, but as expected, she dodged them. According to plan. When Nagisa jumped, she forgot about Kawai for a little there. But when she looked of what was in front of her, she saw Kawai's face in front of her. Something was odd about her, usually she would look all serious with her eyes having that sinister expression. This time, she had on her normal look. Nagisa was so focused on her expression than on her surroundings. It was then when Kawai's rear was now one foot away from her torso. It was now known, as a success.

"Oof!" Nagisa said as she was hit, which she ended up falling off the land by Kawai.

The water splashes and the elites cheer for them. Mio breathes heavily and Rin celebrates.

"Great job girls." Nagisa said as she pulls herself up to the land.

"Thank you!" Both Mio and Rin said.

"Hey, what's wrong with your friend there?" Nagisa asked.

The two look at Kawai who was sitting in the ground, seemingly shaking. They had no other idea what she was nervous for. It was then when they realized the event that was about to take place later today.

Mio and Rin approach Kawai who was on the ground and ask her what was wrong.

"You nervous because of the date?" Mio asked as she pats Kawai's back.

She looks up at her and nods.

"We're done for the day. Let's go to the bathing room."

At your place...

You were in charge of cleaning up the classroom after school had ended. Only one thing left to do now was to take the trash to the incinerator at the back of the school. You picked up the bag filled with trash and made your way down stairs all the way to the back of the school where the incinerator was located. While the trash was being burnt, you went to the room where the teachers were located. Upon entering the room, several students were there as well. It was because that they probably had cleaning duty as well. You approached your teacher and told her that the room was now clean.

"I cleaned the classroom." You said.

"Excellent work (y/n), you may go home. See you tomorrow." She said.

"Thank you, goodbye!" You said as you opened the door and left.

After leaving the university, you walked your way to your apartment building. By checking the time from your phone, it was 3:35 pm.

"Two more hours until our date starts." You said, as you were sweating a bit.

In the academy's bathing room...

"How are you feeling, Kawai?" Mio asked.

"A little better." She replied.

Rin grabs Kawai's hand to investigate.

"You're still a little shaky." Rin commented.

"Of course she is, it is her first date after all!" Mio said out loud, causing all the girls in the room to have their attention.

"Ooh, is someone going to have date?" One of the girls in the room had said.

Immediately, Nozomi comes up to Kawai.

"Wow, really Kawai?" Nozomi said.

"Y-yeah, but it's not a big deal." Kawai said.

"Not a big deal? Of course it's a big deal! I bet none of us had a boyfriend before!" Nozomi said.

"I had a boyfriend!" Someone said in the background.

"Well, most of us. Especially me. Last time I talked to a guy other than my little brother was my neighbor with the same age as me!" Nozomi said.

"That's because you spend all of your time watching Keijo races." Sayaka said.

"Hey!" Nozomi said.

"Don't give up just yet Nozomi! There's plenty of guys in the world!" Kawai said.

"I know, but it's going to be hard to approach a guy. Especially when we're in an all girls school." Nozomi said being all down.

"Don't worry. You'll get a guy some how!" Mio said, patting Nozomi's back firmly.

"Ow ow ow!" Nozomi said.

Two hours had passed since then. It was now time to go to the date you and Kawai had to go to. You told her to meet you at the train station. Since this wasn't a date to a restaurant, just prepared her hair, brushed her teeth and puts on her casual clothes that she bought yesterday. Without knowing, Mio and Rin were outside the bathroom door when she came out.

"So a date to the karaoke rental room huh?" Mio asked.

"Yup, I'm kind of nervous though." Kawai said.

"Don't worry my dear Hanabi!" Mio said.

"We know that you sing pretty good Kawai, there's nothing to worry about!" Rin commented.

"You guys think so?" Kawai said.

"Mhm." Said both Mio and Rin.

"Knock him dead, but not literally." Rin said.

"Alright, see you later!" Kawai said as she got out the dorm's door.

"Later!" They both said.

The door closes, leaving the two alone.

"Bet you that she kisses him on the first date!" Mio said.

"Not even!" Rin replied.

When leaving the academy's campus, she walks her way to the station. It wasn't long when until she made it to her destination. She starts looking around the station to find you. You made it at the station, the same time she did. You did the same by looking around the station to try to find the magenta-haired beauty.

During minutes of searching, you couldn't even find her. That was until you received a message. You take out your phone and find out that Kawai was the one texting you. Immediately, you start texting her back.

Where are you? -Kawai

At the station. -(y/n)

How long did you wait? -Kawai

Not long, I just got here. -(y/n)

Same. -Kawai

What part of the station are you at? -(y/n)

North. -Kawai

I'm there too! How come I don't see you? -(y/n)

Suddenly, you felt yourself being hugged by someone from behind.

"That is because I'm right behind you!" Kawai said.

"Kawai!" You said in surprise.

"I knew I would find you here!" She said.

"Good to know."

You look at her face and down to her feet. She wore the jeans sweater, the yoga pants, knitted hat, and the stylish scarf.

"Kawai...you look...pretty tonight." You complimented her.

"Oh...um...thank you. I-I figured that it would be best if I wore this since it's a bit chilly at night." She blushed.

"You look h-handsome yourself." She complimented you.

"Th-thank you." You said.

The train later arrives, you two were just in time to take the train. You looked at her in the eyes.

"Ready to go Kawai?" You asked.

She nods.

"Yeah, I'm ready!" She said.

"Off we go then." You said.

The two of you left the station and went inside the train to go to the city. You find two seats for the two of you. Both of you sat down and waited until the train closed their doors and leave the station to go the city. Where the building with the karaoke room rentals were located. Now, what was awaited was how the date would turn out. Mostly, will it all go as planned or will it be just like any other normal date?
