Chapter 12: The first Date

After a long date of levelling, looking thought field reports and several guild meetings I decide it would be a good idea to find Kirito and ask some question about some of thing I have found about this unknown guild, I don't know why I wanted to do this I just figured that he was in the beta and being one of the best player during it he would know a thing to two.

After I cleared the dungeon on Grandzum for the hundredth time I though now would be the best time to talk to him, I looked at this location using the friend tracker (which after hours of persuasion he added me as a friend) he was on floor 25, as always and but then I changed to floor 39 so I decide to go there and find him.

Floor 39

I thougth kirito was one this floor to do the dungeon, but after clearing it and not seeing him anywhere I checked the friend tracker once again, he was on the borders of town, a place where mobs could spawn but they were very weak and easy kills so they couldn't hurt Kirirto.

I went to his location and what I saw both angered me and made me admire the way he looked, he was having a nap on the borders of the town, resting in the sun. I walked on over to him and stood above him, a few moment later he opened his eyes too look at me and I asked "what do you think your doing"

all he said was a calm "oh hey"

still very angry at what I saw I said treating him a lazy guild member "everyone else is trying their best to level and clear this game and where do I find you, resting on a tree."

"well I need to take a break sometime, besides to day the weather settings are that there highest setting, it was a waste to fight on a day like this in the beta and I'm not going to make the same mistake twice. You should try it I'm sure being second in command of such a big guild is tiring so take a seat and get some rest" Kirito said back at me

taking his words to heart and agreeing with him, today had been a hard day, I decide to take the spot next to him and rest. The sun was in my eyes so I slowly closed them and went to sleep.

A few hours later

a after what felt like seconds I opened my eyes so see the sun was setting and I was still sat at the tree. I looked around and to my left I saw Kirito sitting on a wall looking straight at me I could help but feel my heart skip a beat when ours eye looked into one another, 'what is this feeling' I thought to myself. Without knowing what I was doing I grabbed my sword in a state of embarrassment some him watching me, but once I realised that we were not in a safe zone I was glad he did because if not then a red guild member might of found me and got a easy kill ( you can fight back when your asleep). I let go of my sword and said in a low tone "you get one meal" 'was I asking him on a date' I thought before asked me to repeat because he was to far away, so I walk over to him and said again "you get one meal"

he was both shocked and surprised at what I said and he said "well if a date you want then fine, I'm game, I know a great restaurant in town if you want"

I felt over joyed that he asked my invitation and he was the one taking me to the restaurant so I joyfully said "yes that sounds great lets go"

At the restaurant

we talked and talked, about the game, about our lives in the real world and about the beta (weird I know but I still like to talk about it as it made him who he was today) we were like that for what seemed like forever and I wished it was, we both had finished our food and we were still talking late into the night.

It was about 10 at night and I we were still talking about trivial things when he got a message from a girl named jess I knew it wasn't his girl friend because he had told me that night that had only ever had one girlfriend which lasted a month in middle school. After reading the message all he said was "good bye Asuna have to get going it's important so I'll see you around yeah" and before I could say anything else to him he was gone and I felt empty, I wanted him to stay so we could talk some more but I guess that was that.

Seeing what the time was I through it would be a good idea to head home in Selmburg on floor 60. once I got there I went straight to sleep just like I did when I napped next to Kirito. When I woke up the next morning I noticed 2 thing, the first was a message from Kirito saying

hope you slept OK would love to do that again sometime, maybe today if so same restaurant same time :)

from Kirito

I was glad he wanted to have dinner again and I wanted to talk to him more. The second thing I noticed was that I did have a nightmare that night, normally when I went to bed I would have a nightmare and wake up all sweaty but today the day after I got closer to Kirito, I didn't so this made want to be with even more than I did before, was it that I was falling in love or was it something but then and there I decided that I loved him and that I wanted to be with him no matter what.
