The 7th part of Bakugan Battle Brawlers: Gunz In Love
Why couldn't she have stayed and watched him? Gunz felt a little sad. Sighing, he stopped his training and sat down in one of the bleachers in the stadium. Reptak grew curious and floated up to him.
"Reptak?" Gunz asked.
"What is it, Gunz?" Reptak asked back.
"Does Emma think I'm cocky? I mean, the look on her face when I said that to her seemed to make her feel angry. Did I do anything wrong?" asked Gunz as he picked up his guardian bakugan.
As much as he loved his human partner, Reptak was no sugar-coater.
"Well, let's see. You are kind of cocky, so yes. She seemed a little angry that you're always focusing on battles. And your attitude to her last time was very rude! Even though you did give her a tour of the city and Bakugan Interspace, you were talking mostly about yourself the whole time. That turns a girl way off." Reptak explained.
Gunz couldn't help feel sorry for himself. Even though he barely knew Emma, there was something about her that he really liked. He didn't know what.
Meanwhile, Emma arrived to work thirty minutes early, since Mr. Smith likes his employees on time.
"Wow, miss Emma. A big improvement from the interview day, I see!" said Mr. Smith with a smile.
"You know it's only my first day, right?" Emma asked.
"Oh. Yeah, sorry! Sometimes I forget that they need much training. Anyways, since you're going to work for me, I need to set a few ground rules. There will be no slacking off! You can only slack off on your breaks. And further more, when you're working, I expect you to do the best you can!" said Mr. Smith with a smile.
Emma was surprised. Usually, the managers for other workplaces would give a long list of rules they would expect to see from you. As she changed into her uniform, Emma saw someone looking at her.
"Well, well, well. I've never expected Mr. Smith to hire such cute workers," it was a boy, a little older than Emma, with blonde hair over one eye.
"Really? You think I'm cute?" Emma asked.
"Well, if that's what you want to think. Name's Terrance. I'll be your work partner for a little while, just until your experienced enough to work on your own," said the boy.
"Nice to meet ya, Terrance. I'm Emma," she shook hands with the boy.
Terrance smiled.
After Gunz left Bakugan Interspace, he returned home, where he just threw his coat on the couch. He sighed and went upstairs to get a goodnight rest.
The next day, Emma woke up early to meet Terrance at her new job again. After work, Emma was about to walk home, when the same boy stopped her.
"Emma, may I speak to you?" Terrance asked.
"Huh? For what? Did I already get fired?" Emma asked.
"No, it's nothing like that actually. It's just that I've been wanting to ask you this all day," said Terrance.
Little did they know, Gunz was walking down the sidewalk to catch a bite to eat. He stopped when he saw Emma and an unknown boy, who was Terrance.
"What is it?" Emma asked. Gunz saw them, but didn't say a word.
"I was just wondering…if you'd like to go out to dinner sometime?" Terrance asked. Emma's jaw dropped, and Gunz's eyes widened.
"Dinner?" Emma asked.
"Yeah!" said Terrance.
Emma looked down at her shoes and rubbed her tense neck. She didn't know what to say.
"Terrance, that offer sounds really nice and everything, but…I've been kind of hoping to ask another guy out to dinner," she said.
Gunz heard this and grew shocked. What if she meant him?
"Someone else? Like who?" asked Terrance.
"Well, he's this really nice-looking guy and I've actually just met him not too long ago. And well, even though I don't know him well, I've been kind of wanting to ask him out to dinner. There's just something about this guy that's really…interesting!" explained Emma.
Gunz's jaw dropped when he heard this.
"Really? Well, ok. Then I guess I'll just…see you tomorrow," said Terrance as he walked off, not saying goodbye. When he turned around, a sigh of defeat came from him.
Emma sighed and turned around, when she saw Gunz standing in front of her!
"Gunz?" she asked.
"Oh! Hi, Emma! Sorry I've been listening to your conversation. I was just strolling on down to get something to eat, but then I saw you and that guy in front of me and I heard your conversation. You're not mad, are ya?" Gunz asked nervously.
"Mad? Why would I be mad?" asked Emma.
"Because I heard you were gonna ask someone out to dinner and you've met this interesting guy," said Gunz.
"Yeah. You," said Emma.
"Me? Really?" Gunz asked.
"Well, yeah! What, did you think I was gonna say yes to Terrance? He's not even my type!" said Emma with a smile.
"What, no! Anyways, since this is clearly a shock to me, I think I'll just get it over with. Emma…would you like to go out to dinner tomorrow evening?" Gunz asked.
"Yes I would." said Emma with a smile.
"Great! Tomorrow night at seven?" asked Gunz.
"Tomorrow night at seven!" said Emma with a laugh.
They both smiled and headed home, with both their hearts filled with excitement.
