Chapter 4
Warning: If you see the name Ami, dont get confused! That is Airi Irino, Akio's sister. I tried to take it out but if you find that mistake, tell me!
Hello! It's been a while huh? This chapter took me a lot longer because of not only laziness but because I had to rewrite some stuff. This chapter was quite confusing and I also kinda set myself up to rewrite this chapter. Who knew that one small change in the last chapter could impact this one and probably all the new chapters to come? Anyway, let me stop or I'm going to start rambling. ON WITH THE CHAPTER! ENJOY!
FIRST DATE?
When Mei woke up, she found her mother in her room fixing up for work. Everything from the previous day came back to her and she felt a sense of guilt eating her raw. She couldn't believe that she was careless enough to leave broken glass in a place where Marshmallow could climb on. At this point, she had stopped walking and stood still in the hallway. Her mother saw this and saw her daughter's expression, she smiled. "Mei honey, what happened yesterday was not your fault. You were running late, what you did was something that anybody could have done. Don't beat yourself up for it okay? Now get ready for school." Seeing here mother's smile, she felt reassured and got ready for school. Hopefully today would be a better day.
After breakfast, she left her house and headed for Akio's house that was a few houses ahead; Mei always met the Irino siblings in front of their house so they could walk together to school and today was no different. When she arrived in front of the Irino house, she saw that only her boyfriend was there that morning. It turned out that Airi had left early because she had to arrive early so she could meet someone. Akio used the opportunity to ask Mei out somewhere since they hadn't really gone on any dates. '' Hey, do you want to go on a date this afternoon, we haven't really gone to any yet."
"Yea I would like that" she said casually. She may have seemed calm on the outside, but on the outside, she was freaking out. This was the first date of her life after all. "Uh, Mei?" Akio waved his hand in front of Mei's face to get her attention. "Huh, oh sorry i was just thinking. What were you saying?" She said after gaining her senses back. "I was saying if we could go to the movies and then eat out. What do you think?"
Mei gave a short thought about it and then answered, "Yeah, I think that would be great." Akio's eyes lit up and gave her a beaming smile. "After school then?" Mei gave a curt nod in response. "After school.'' she confirmed
'I'm glad she said yes.' Akio thought. After a few minutes passed, they arrived to school where they changed their shoes and went to class which is when they found their friends. "Nii-san, what did she say?" Airi whispered to her brother when he passed by. "She said yes." He whispered back with a grin. Airi shrieked in response causing all attention to be directed towards her. She glared at the crowd menacingly and they all turned around not wanting to face the wrath of the small girl known as Airi Irino. When all attention was off of her, she asked her brother "So where are you guys going?" she asked, the girl was dying to know! " Well, we are going to the movies and then a restaurant." that was the last thing said before the teacher entered and class began.
After school ended, Mei walked to Akio who was waiting for her in the entrance of the school. "So are you ready to go?'' Said Akio as Mei apprached him. ''Yup!'' Answered Mei cheerfully. "Okay then, let's go!" They walked home like any other day but this time was different. Today, they were going on their very first date. They were just stopping by and getting out of their school attire before heading to the movies. After much debating on what would be suitable to wear, both of them were finally ready to go on their very anticipated date. Akio showed up at Mei's doorstep and they headed to the first destination of their first date.
An hour and some later, the movie finally ends and they leave the movie theater. The movie had turned out to be boring and both of them fell asleep during it. They had woken up near the end to find them cuddled up together in their sleep. It ended up in blushes and smiles but disappointment in the terrible movie.
"Welp. that movie was terrible. I've never slept during a movie like that, being tired yea but just falling asleep like that?" Mei laughed. Akio nodded sleepiness still in his system. ''It was quite terrible wasn't it?" He answered. He honestly had no idea what was going on, the only thing he knew was that seeing Mei's smile was the most beautiful sight in his life and that he was lucky to have her. Lucky wasn't he?
After they came back to their senses, they walked to the restaurant where Akio had reserved at and sat themselves down. They talked a lot about themselves and the things that neither of them knew about each other. Neither wanted it to end but like they say, all good things must come to an end. After dinner, the young pair walked to Mei's house so that Akio could walk his petite girlfriend home.
After Akio left, Mei entered her home and found her mother waiting for her by the entrance. Mrs. Tachibana bombarded her daughter with questions about their date. She wanted to know all of the details and she wouldn't have no for an answer. Mei tried her best to get away from the questions; she wanted to sleep but once again, mommy dearest had ways to convince her daughter to spill it; it worked every time. So for the next hour, Mei told her mother every single detail of the date and every detail of how he asked her as well. When her mother was finally satisfied with Mei's answers, she headed to sleep without changing or taking off her slippers. Tomorrow was Saturday and she knew she was going to be woken up by Airi to tell her all about the date even though Mei knew that her friend had already interrogated her brother.
As anticipated, Airi called her but what Mei did not expect was to be woken up at 5 in the morning! Just what in the hell was Airi thinking?! So Mei spent an exceptionally boring Saturday telling Airi and the rest of her friends all the details. To say she was tired was an understatement!
How was it? I've read the reviews I've gotten so far and I want to thank Rapmon87 (BTS fan maybe? Namjoon?/BTS anyone?) and JZA for commenting. It means a lot to me if even one of you guys review.

Anyway, till' next time! BYE, ADIOS, ANNYEONG, CIAO, SAYONNARA (okay now let me stop)!
