"Well, it was good enough a show for you not to leave the cinema halfway, wasn't it?" Tasuki asked as he and Yui walked out of the theatre.

"Yeah, in fact the movie was fabulous!" Yui exclaimed as she stretched full-length, trying to ease her muscles after sitting through the two-and-a-half hour long movie. Tasuki grinned in agreement as they walked on in the mall. "Hey, wanna grab a bite? I'm starving!" Yui suggested.

"Hmm, ok. Let's eat at the newly opened food court in this shopping mall! I heard that the food there was not bad," Tasuki suggested as Yui nodded her head in agreement and followed him to the newly opened food court.

However, as they reached the food court, to their disappointment, it was packed with many hungry people and not a single table was available.

"Oh well, next time then," Tasuki comforted the disappointed Yui. "I know, let eat at the sushi bar." With that, Yui and Tasuki made their way to the sushi bar only to find that it too was packed with many customers. The hungry duo stared at it longingly. All of a sudden, there was a growling noise coming from Tasuki's stomach.

"Oops!" Tasuki grinned sheepishly as Yui stared at him with a sympathetic look on her face.

"Oh well, looks like I'll have to cook our dinner," Yui sighed.

"You can cook?" Tasuki asked in amazement as he followed her out of the mall.

"Well, of course," Yui said. "But then again, I may need your help."

"Help? What help?" He asked hesitantly. Was she going to make him the tester of her food because she could not cook like Miaka? He wondered, a little afraid of being poisoned by her food.

"A ride," she replied his question.

"Oh, that," Tasuki heaved a sigh of relief. "Sure, here," he tossed to her an extra motorcycle helmet. "Hop on." Yui put the helmet on and hopped onto his motorbike as they sped off back to the hostel to her room.

"Mmmm… This is great," Tasuki commented, as he chomped down on another serving of her cooking.

Yui raised an eyebrow. "Were you just… Complimenting me?"

"Eh, don't think too much of it." Tasuki spoke defensively. "I said it was great because it has been practically 40 minutes and I still haven't passed out from food poisoning!"

Yui narrowed her eyes. "Yeh, I bet you've got such a strong stomach," she spoke sarcastically, "Either that or you have already had the misfortune of eating Miaka's cooking, then thought that since I was her friend, my cooking would just be as lousy."

Tasuki just shrugged.

Yui just shook her head and began pouring drinks for them. They finished their dinner in silence.

Tasuki smacked his lips together in satisfaction as he got up from the sofa. "Hmm… Well, for a snappish, prim-and-proper, and a high and mighty Seiryuu no Miko, your cooking is fab-"

But he did not get to finish his sentence. "Alright!" Yui exclaimed, glaring at him. "It's TIME for YOU to LEAVE!" She shoved him all the way to the door, opened it, and pushed him out. "Night!" she yelled, then slammed her door in his face. Baka, she thought, as she began to clear the table. She must have been so hungry that she was acting abnormally—being nice to that baka! He certainly didn't deserve it! Forever teasing and insulting her… Argh! Yet… She had to admit, the entire evening had been rather nice and fun. Wait. Stop. Did Hongo Yui just say that an evening with Kou Shun'u Tasuki was 'nice and fun'? Now, she knew for sure that she was definitely out of her mind.

- - - - - ----------- - - - - - -

Tasuki laughed quietly to himself as he walked back to his room. The evening spent was well… Kinda fun, he had to admit. He didn't think it would have been this fun, but it was. Yui was witty and had a great sense of humour. That was two things Tasuki did not expect to see in Yui. All of a sudden, he frowned. What was he talking about? Yui and he were enemies, and to even admit having fun with her was going against the rules of, well, enmity. Frankly, he didn't quite feel these feelings of enmity towards her anymore. In fact, he wasn't sure what replaced those feelings. It was getting all too confusing.

"Gah, I won't think about it. But the dinner was good." He muttered as he got changed.
