"Saitama! Open up!" Genos opened the door a crack. "He didn't know you called yesterday, so I suggest you tell him." He opened the door and let her in, pointing to Saitama watching TV.
She sighed with relief, slowly walking over to him.
"Hey Saitama." She tapped his shoulder. "Hm?" He turned around to face her, muting the TV. "We're going on a date, this Saturday." "..why?" She was taken aback by his response, but continued. "Tami or whatever. You know? Mess up with me so you don't mess up with her." She tapped her foot, waiting for his response.
"O-kay?" He cautiously said, before unmuting the TV.
"Wear something nice! I'll handle the rest!" She called over her shoulder as she walked back out of the apartment.
"So, she called yesterday for the same thing?" "Yes, I believe it came out of pressure to spend more time with you from HQ. "Oh,that sucks."
Saitama had put on a light blue long sleeve along with black slacks.
"Is this nice enough?" Saitama asked Genos as he looked himself over.
"Indeed. You look great Master." He gave a thumbs up. They both heard a knock at the door. "Guess that's her."
He opened the door to see Tatsumaki in a pink dress. "You look nice. So, where do we go?" Her eyes looked over his appearance, Saitama confused as to why she was taking longer than expected.
"You dress up pretty well yourself. And we're going to the park." He noticed the small picnic basket besides her. She maintained a mildly professional look, although she was giddy about the situation at hand. Reaching for the picnic basket, he closed the door. "If you don't hold her hand, how is she supposed to know you're interested?" She stated slyly.
Saitama mildly rolled his eyes, but touched the tips of his fingers to hers.
"Close enough." She mumbled, as the two continued towards the park.
She set the picnic basket down as she motioned for him to sit down.
"So, how long have you known this girl?" She asked. He pondered for a bit then replied "Almost a little over a year now."
"How long have you liked her?" She teased, giggling to herself. "About a- hey can't I ask questions?" He pouted, prompting her to giggle more.
"What kind of questions would you ask me?" She looked down, avoiding his gaze.
"Hypothetical questions for Tamaki. Just tell me, I guess, what not to ask."
"Oh." There was a slight frown. "Well, ask away."
"I..kinda want to ask her if I could see without her wig on." Saitama spoke softly.
Tatsumaki snorted. "HA! So she's a baldy like you?" He frowned a bit at her statement. "So, then..?" "Don't ask that. At all."
"Yeah, I figured as much." He avoided eye contact with her, setting his arms on his lap.
"So, why are you doing this?" He asked, looking more serious than she was used to.
"I thought these questions were for Tamaki." She mumbled. "But, it's because you seem to like her more than you lead on." She blushed, a shy smile on her face. "Next question." She scowled.
"Can I tell her she's cute?"
"Of course. Duh."
"So, when are you going to make a move?"
"I'm just gonna wing it."
"Oh, really?" A bright green aura flared around her.
"Listen. It had better be romantic." She huffed.
"Got it."
""Do you have a picture of her?"
Saitama flinched at her question. "Yeah, but I had to take it while she wasn't looking."
He pulled out his phone, scrolling through his images until he found it.
It was during their first picnic. She was under a tree waiting for Genos to arrive, a faraway look in her eyes. He turned his phone towards her.
"You're right, she's cute." She smirked. "My picture is definitely better." she thought.
She returned his phone to him, flipping it closed, until Saitama pushed his phone back towards her.
"Genos told me that you called him yesterday. You can just text me, if you want." Caught on the spot she fumbled with his phone, not wanting to reject his offer.
"Maybe another time." She said softly, handing his phone back to him.
"Its cool." He chuckled softly, putting his phone back in his pocket.
"Oh. Guess I better head home now." He said, pointing to the night sky.
"I see. You need more practice, so we're doing this next week." She stepped off of the blanket, and began rolling it up.
"You know," He crouched down to her eye level, "your eyes are green like hers."
"See you next week." He patted her head, then turned around to walk out of the park.
T: Hey Sai! I'm going to be back in town in a few days!
S: That's great
S: We should do something together when you get back.
T: Yes! I'll see you at your place then?
S:yep.
She excitedly flew over to Saitama's apartment as soon as her "vacation" ended.
"Hey Sai!" She knocked on the door. "Wait a sec, please." Came a muffled reply. "Looks like those practice dates paid off." She thought, giggling quietly to herself. Her vision was blocked by a lock of her real hair. "Ok Im out." Quickly adjusting her wig and hiding her green hair, she looked up to see if he had noticed. Thankfully he seemed focused on his cellphone. He noticed her looking at him and flashed a small smile. "Genos just wanted to make sure we were doing alright." He put it away in his back pocket.
"Come on in."
He had set up some drinks on the table, and sat down, motioning for her to sit next to him. "So, how was your trip?" He asked. "It was fine, I got to explore a different city. Although to be honest, I couldn't wait to see you again." She gently stroked his hand. He put down his glass and put his other hand over hers."Hey Tamaki…" He moved closer.
"Yes?" She asked, leaning in. "My hands aren't too cold, are they?" He muttered. She grabbed his hand, moving it up to her cheek".No, they're just right." They closed the gap between them.
Caught in their moment, she began floating. Saitama, noticing that his hand moved upwards, opened his eyes. Pulling gently away from her, his arms out ready to catch her. "Hey Tamaki?" She opened her eyes and yelped, cutting off her powers and falling into his arms. They silently stared at each other, until Saitama started chuckling. "Nothing was said about needing to catch you." She hid her flustered face in his arm. He sighed, then kissed her forehead. "But you looked really cute." She lifted her head, greeted by a small smile.
He gently stroked her hair as she nuzzled her face into his chest, sighing contently.
"This is nice and all, but I'm kind of hungry." "Hungry for more?" She giggled flirtatiously.
"I mean, I guess," He shrugged. "I haven't eaten since 10." "We should eat then." She smiled, resisting the urge to correct him.
The two were standing outside of his apartment., reminiscing about their date. "I had fun." "Me too." "I didn't know you could be so bold." She grinned, putting her hand against her cheek, feeling the warmth underneath it. . "Well, she said I had to make a move sometime." She looked up to face him. "Who's 'she'?" She asked in false curiosity.
"A good friend." A gentle smile spread across his face. "I see." She was mildly confused at her own softer tone. "Hey. Sai?" "Yeah?" She chuckled nervously. "Never mind. It sounds so weird." "You can tell me." She met his interested gaze.
"Well. I kind of wanted to ask if I could..have a picture of us together. "Sure." He pulled out his phone, moving closer to her. "So, how do you want me to-" "Just a normal picture." She leaned against his shoulder, grinning at the camera. He ruffled her hair as he snapped the picture. Her phone dinged. "Aww, thanks Sai! It looks so cute!" She quickly hugged him before checking the time. "I should go, it's late." She jumped up, giving him a quick peck on the cheek. "Text you later!" She waved, running off.
"Hey Genos, could you put Tats on the phone?" Genos looked up from washing dishes. "Tats?" "Tatsumaki." He blinked. "Alright then, a moment please." He reached for his phone, quickly dialing her number. "I'm in the middle of something, cyborg." "Hey Tats."
"Saitama?" "I just called to say thanks." "It was nothing, baldy." "I hope you get to meet my girlfriend sometime. She's a big fan." He heard a muffled reply. "What was that?" He raised the volume slightly.
"I said maybe. Good night." "Good night."
He pressed 'end call', absentmindedly looking at the number. "Hm." He handed the phone back to Genos. "Hey, Master?" "Yeah?" "Did anything strange happen during your date?" "Not really. Unless you count floating." "I see." He bowed. "I'm going to bed. I suggest you do the same."
"Maybe never." She closed her phone, putting it away in her nightstand. She touched her lips, reminiscing their moment before turning off her lights.
She heard her phone vibrate and turned her lights back on.
S: Hey Tam, wanna come over tomorrow?
.T: I'll be over at 2 . It's late, good night. 3
She sighed contently and put her phone back in the nightstand.
"Tamaki." She scowled at the source. "What?" He motioned for her to follow him to a more secluded part of the street. "I came to congratulate on you and Master getting together. I would also advise that you be more careful." "Is that all?" "No. Master did also say he liked kissing you." She scoffed, trying to avoid his eyes. "No he didn't. He wouldn't tell you, at least." She walked back to the busy street without another word.
"He didn't seem to mind." He called out before walking into a nearby store.
"Saitama!" She ran up to hug him, jumping up to wrap her arms around his neck.
"Looks like I caught you again." He held her closer. "I bet I could catch you." She stuck her tongue out playfully.
"Oh really?" He set her on the ground, walking a few feet away from her. "Do it." He bent his knees and jumped up, creating a small crater.
"Saiii! I should do something!" Her arms were flailing and she was pacing rapidly back and forth.
"I'm on my way down!" She heard him shout.
"What the hell?!" She sighed. "Damn it Saitama." Thrusting her arms out, she stepped closer to the crater. She saw both her hands and a free falling Saitama enveloped in a bright green glow.
He landed gently, then wrapped his arms around Tamaki.
"Well, you did catch me." He bent down, giving her a peck on the cheek. "Thanks hon."
She pouted, remaining silent.
"You really scared me you know?" She turned away from him, overdramatizing herself. "I don't think a kiss on the cheek is going to make me feel better." She continued teasing him.
Gently turning her back around, he leaned forward and kissed her on the lips.
They pulled away, grinning.
"Better now?" "Very."
"You know, you don't have to hide your powers from me." "I.." "Tam?"
A light blush appeared on her face. "I needed a reason to meet you. I've seen you around, beating up monsters. Leaving without a sign of who you were. If I had tried with my powers that day, you would've just took off."
"I think it's awesome you have powers Tam." He picked her up, spinning her around.
"But I would've stayed. I didn't have anywhere to be."
He rested his head against hers.
"Hey Sai, we've been out here a while."
"We should go inside."
"Video games again?" "Yeah, maybe."
"4:00 pm. I should give them more time alone." Genos continued browsing through the grocery store.
I made it before the end of the month! :D Again, thanks a lot for the support! To be honest, I kind of didn't like the last chapter, so that's why I took longer with this one.
2 chapters left to go..well technically one more and an epilogue.
I feel like this is as OOC as it'll get. See you guys in August.
