A.M. - another chapter that i had hoped to get out earlier... this chapter starts
a few days after the last one ended.
Tenchi and Heero sat on the dock at the lake outside of the Musaki
household.
"I need your help," Heero said to Tenchi.
"My help?" Tenchi questioned, almost falling into the lake from surprise.
Heero wasn't the tyoe of guy who would ask for help. "What for?"
"How would you ask someone out?"
"Well, first I'd buy them a dozen roses," Tenchi mused. "And a box of
chocolate with a bright red ribbon around it. Then I'd go to the girl, give her the
gifts, get down on one knee and say, 'my dearest lady -"
"I'm not proposing to her for goodness sake! I'm just gonna ask Ryoko out -"
"You're gonna ask Ryoko out?! I knew you liked her but i didn't think -"
"Kuso." * I never should have asked for his help. Now the baka's never gonna
stop teasing me about it.* thought Heero.
"Well," said Tenchi, "in that case ditch the flowers but keep the chocolate.
Hmm... just say 'Would you like to go to dinner with me tonight?' I'll set everything
up. All you have to do is ask her out. Not to hard for you, is it?"
"Mission Accepted."
~~~~~
Ryoko sat by the mirror in her room. *Friggin lipstick. How does Ayeka put
this stuff on so neatly?*
A knock at her door interrupted Ryoko's thoughts. Ryoko opened the door to find
Heero standing there. "H..hi...Heero...what can I do for you?" *Crap! Why'd he have
to come here now? I've probably got that violet lipstick all over my face!*
"Umm...I was..er..wondering..." *Why am I stalling?! I never stall!* Heero
mentally smacked himself. "Wouldyouliketogoouttodinnerwithme?" *That sounded like shit.
She probably doesn't want to go out with me now. Heck, she probably didn't even hear
what I said.*
Ryoko suddenly felt lightheadded. *Did I hear correctly? Did Heero just ask me
out?! He did! What do I say? Yes? Sure? I'd love to? I'm acting like a starstruck
schoolgirl!* "umm...ok?" * Now I sound like a friggin idiot!"
Heero just stared at Ryoko. He couldn't believe she said yes. They were both in
a state of shock.
"What time?" Ryoko asked, breaking the silence.
"Seven," Heero replied.
"Seven," Ryoko echoed.
Heero leaned in and gave Ryoko a quick kiss before running down the hall to
Tenchi's room. *What am I doing?* Heero thought. *I don't know, but I like it...*
~~~~~
Ayeka opened the door to her room revealing Ryoko, a lopsided grin plastered on her
face and stars in her eyes.
"Ayeka, what do you wear on a dinner date? I have one tonight at seven..."
"Well then Ryoko, I suggest we go shopping for a new dress," Ayeka said. "So Heero
finally got up the nerve to ask you out?"
"Yup!" Ryoko responded.
"I knew he would. Now let's go shopping! We'll bring Mihoshi along too. Dispite
her clumsiness and stupidity about most things, she has a great sense of fassion."
"Are you sure Ayeka?" Ryoko worriedly asked.
"Of course I am!" Ayeka haughtily responded.
"Okay then -"
"Did I hear someone say shopping?" A head peered around the door.
"Yes, Mihoshi," said Ayeka. "She's got a 6th sense for this type of stuff," she then
whispered to Ryoko.
"Yay! Shopping!" squealed Mihoshi.
Groans were heard from both Ryoko and Ayeka. "Maybe we shouldn't bring her along."
"Too late now Ayeka."
