Hey sorry to keep you waiting - it took me a while to get any ideas!! Enjoy!
Chapter 12
"Second date with Kaoru"
Thursday:
Haruhi decided that, again, today she would not go for a shower.
"I know Kaoru won't have the same idea as Kyoya…" she thought, as she got ready.
She pulled on a pair of jeans and a plain blue t-shirt, and then went to make lunch for her father. It wasn't long before she heard the door.
"Hey!" said Kaoru "Are you ready to go?"
"Yeah, I'll just get my bag."
She closed the door behind her and they got into the car. The journey didn't take long before they were getting out of the car.
"I knew it!" she thought looking up at the building.
They were at a swimming pool. Haruhi could feel a small pit of dread form in her stomach.
"Let's go Haruhi!" said Kaoru taking her hand and pulling her into the building.
They paid for their tickets and went into the changing rooms. They arranged to meet at the entrance to the pool. Haruhi had packet the simplest bathing suit she could find – it was dark blue with light blue stripes. She put her things in a locker and went to meet Kaoru. As he watched her come towards him, he could feel a blush creep on to his cheeks.
"Hikaru's gonna be so jealous!"
Haruhi looked around her and couldn't help but notice the number of giant water slides.
"Ready?" he asked when she reached him
"Sure"
He took her hand and pulled her to the nearest slide. It was better than Haruhi expected. She was surprised to be excited for the next one. They went on a few more, then got rubber rings and went to the whirlpool (a/n: not sure if that's what it is…but that's what I'm calling it!).
"What slide do you want to go on next?" asked Kaoru
"How about the yellow one?" Haruhi suggested.
They headed off and reached the top of the stairs.
"Here you go," said the attendant, putting a giant rubber eight in the water. "Tallest at the back."
Kaoru climbed on the back and Haruhi, feeling a little uncomfortable, sat down at the front, between Kaoru's legs.
"I'm glad she's at the front…" he thought, his face turning a bright shade of red.
"Ready?" asked the attendant
"Yes" they both answered as the man pushed the eight.
They both screamed as they plummeted into the darkness (bit much lol). It was soon over when they slide off the eight into the water. They both surfaced and looked at one another. They were soon in fits of laughter. They exited the pool and went on a few more slides.
"Are you hungry?"
"Yeah, a little" she answered
"Let's go and get lunch then"
They left the pool and went back to the changing area. They met at the entrance and headed to a small restaurant. They got soup and sandwiches and some tea.
"Ready to go home?"
"If you are…"
They headed back to the car and got in. they were soon back at the apartment. Kaoru walked up to the door with Haruhi.
"Thanks for a lovely day, Kaoru" she said, giving him a kiss on the cheek. "I'll see you on Sunday"
She went into the house and missed Kaoru's face go red, again. She found a note from her telling her he was away to work early. She also found a message from Mori
Get you at 11am. Wear big socks.
"Hmm…"
