Now it's time for Arata to have a moment in the story and for a bit of shipping too. ;)
Shina's First Kiss
It was on one calm night, a plan was taking place and the ones involved were five girls who were aware of Shina's crush on Arata. Neither of them had yet to have a date where nothing would go wrong, since there was alwasy the possibility that it would. But this time, things would be different and the girls were going to make sure it goes right from start to finish.
"Alright, is everything ready?" Clea asked.
"I've got the CD player here." Celica answered. "The one with the Disney songs you asked for."
"Good, is it the karaoke version?"
"Yes, the one we're looking for is on the CD." Lily said. "I've practiced my lines for this moment."
"So have I." Lucil nodded. "We'll be a wonderful duet."
"I actually can't wait to hear you both sing." Celica said. "So how is this gonna work out again?"
"Well, I asked Shina and Arata to come to this park at night. I also made sure that the speakers are conveniently hidden throughout the park." Clea explained. "Once they enter the park together, Shina will ask for Arata to hold his hand and that's when the music will start, so make sure to be on standby."
Lily and Lucil nodded.
"Also, I have this walkie talkie so that Al can let me know when they arrive. We'll just hide in here throughout the date, they won't even see us here."
*KZZZT*
"Al to Clea! They're coming! Over!" Al spoke.
*KZZZT*
"Clea here!" She responded. "Good, keep out of sight and don't make a sound."
*KZZZT*
"Got it! I'll be a quiet as a stray cat looking for the last piece of the pie!"
*KZZZT*
The other girls blinked, but shook Al's random moment out of their minds.
"Alright girls, it's showtime." Clea smirked as she connected the speaker output cable to the back of the CD player.
*BGM: Nancy Adams - Love*
A beautiful and melodic music started playing throughout the whole park and it didn't go unnoticed by the two people walking along the pathway.
"Huh? Wait, where is that music coming from?" Arata asked.
"I don't know, but it sounds beautiful." Shina replied. "Say...do you umm...wanna hold my hand?"
Arata stood back a little. "What? You want us to hold hands?"
Shina smiled at him, blushing all the while.
"Okay, sure..." Arata nodded.
Once they were holding hands, they blushed and continued walking slowly around the park.
The melodic music was settling in and Lily and Lucil cleared their throats and Lily started to sing.
It seems like only yesterday
You were just a child at play
Now you're all grown up inside of me
Oh how fast those moments flee
Lily smiled at Lucil who sang beautifully in the eyes of the girls, now it was Lucil's turn for the next part.
Once we watched a lazy world go by
Now the days seem to fly
Life is brief, but when it's gone
Love goes on, and on, and on
"This is so beautiful...I love it so much." Shina said.
"Yeah, even this is starting to get to me." Arata replied who was red in the face. "Why is this happening anyway?"
"I'm not sure, but I'm not going to complain." Shina then blushed. "Say, mind if we sit down on this bench together?"
Arata rubbed his head. "Okay, we can...sit close if you want."
"Y-yeah, sure..."
Love will live
Love will last
Love goes on, and on, and on
The two sat on the bench close to each other whilst the music continued playing. There was one section to go and Lily and Lucil got ready to go for it.
Once we watched a lazy world go by
Arata looked at Shina and she looked back at him, the nerves were increasing with each level.
Now the days seem to fly
Shina looked into his eyes and held his hands before putting her arms around him.
Life is brief, but when it's gone
Arata was taken back, but he chose to let his guard down and hugged back, looking into her eyes in return.
Love goes on, and on
The mood and the feel of the song was too much to resist for both of them. Before they knew it, they laid thier lips on each others, sealing in their first kiss.
Love goes on, and on
And when the song ended, the music died down and the atmosphere was calm once more, but the kiss still kept going.
"Hell yeah, girls we did it!" Clea said quietly. "Mission accomplished!"
"Thank goodness." Lucil sighed in relief. "That was scary."
"I've never been so nervous for a long time." Lily said. "But I'm so glad for Shina."
"Yeah, same here." Celica added. "Maybe we should go before they eventually do find us."
"Agreed, I'll get Al to help me with clearing up after they leave." Clea said. "Can't have my speakers being stolen."
Back at the bench, Shina and Arata had finished their kiss and their faces were redder than ever before.
"Umm, did we just...kiss?" Shina asked.
"Yeah, we definitely did..." Arata answered. "Was it...okay?"
"Okay? It was much more than that. It was amazing!"
Arata looked away in shyness. "Oh...I see...umm. I guess this makes us a couple or something?"
"Yeah, but I won't question how it happened." Shina smiled. "I was always so nervous about how you would feel if we kissed."
"Really? I wasn't sure what was going on, but I liked it...want me to walk you home?"
Shina blushed. "Are you sure? Could we have...another kiss?"
Arata was taken back by her question, but he nodded, smiling back at her. "As many as you want."
Sealing in another kiss, there was nothing else that mattered. Not even the sneaking movements by the girls was enough to distract them.
Yeah, I totally borrowed this idea, because I like the thought of Shina and Arata having their first kiss with a Disney song playing throughout. :P
