A//N: Ugh, watched 28 Days Later…kinda stupid movie. But now I feel all horrid and death wanting. Not a good time to be writing a date, but alas, maybe writing can get me and myself in the mood for more than UNO update.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------.

"Ne, Romiro, has something strabge been going on with Shizuru lately? I mean…every time I say something she always fakes a smile or looks sad in her eyes…it hurts 'cause it seems I'm always doing something wrong…am i?"

Romiro sighed, wanting to tell the blind girl what was going on, but at the same time, was devoted to Shizuru's trust in him. "Natsuki-chan, Shizuru is probably moody."

"Like on her peiod?" Natsuki instantly blushed when the words came out of her mouth before thinking, and she quickly added a, "Joking…" before letting the room develop into silence.

Romiro let out a soft chuckle, before turning to Natsuki. "Natsuki, when you look at Shizuru, what do you see?"

"Uh…Duh, Shizuru?"

"No, not her silly, I mean, what do you see in her eyes?"

"Uhh…me?"

"Exactly."

Natsuki still didn't understand. Shizuru sees me…when I see her? What does this have to do with why she's been down? God, this is confusing...no…theres a deeper meaning…she sees me…she's looking at me…

Romiro saw Natsuki's confusion, and sighed. "Nevermind then. Just known that Shizuru will always be there for you….and I'd like you to promise me that you'll do the same for her."

Now it was Natsuki's turn to frown. "Romiro, theres no need to promise you. I will always be there for Shizuru, even if I don't see my reflection in her eyes, even if I'm not the one she sees, I'm always there for her."

Romiro smiled. "Thank you…"

--

On the other side of the door, Shizuru blushed, her hand over her chest. Ah…my heart is beating…so fast. Just by words. Natsuki…do you realize how much you mean to me…? I will admit it now…I…I…'m falling…in love with you…

Taking a deep breath, Shizuru seeked confidence. I…I won't give up. If she…rejects me…I…I know her. Enough to know that she won't leave me…I hope…Natsuki…tonight…I…I'll confess.

Shizuru turned around and opened the door, smiling brightly with Natsuki's words repeating in her heart. "I'm ready, shall we go Natsuki?"

Shizuru was even happier with Natsuki's expression, which was almost a bit blocked up by her red face. I don't care…even if I'm just thinking to much into it…Natsuki. To me this is a date. And…hehehe…your look…either your checking me out, or you get red frequently…

Natsuki stuttered, stunned by Shizuru's beauty, even though she was in casual wear. She wore a faded denim miniskirt, a pair of gray converses, and a black and gray shirt. She looked absolutely beautiful like that.

Blushing, Natsuki turned her head to the side, muttering, "T-took you long enough…let's go…"

Shizuru smiled, took Natsuki's hand, faced Romiro, and mouthed the words, 'Thank you' to him. Romiro smiled, already presuming Shizuru had overheard the conversation, and was happy that Shizuru wasn't mad for him telling Natsuki something she told him.

Natsuki blushed when Shizuru had grabbed her hand, but honestly, aside from the nervous feeling, or the loud thumping in her chest…

Natsuki honestly felt happy with Shizuru.

--

It was after the movie, and the two had decided to go out and eat dinner at a nice but small restaurant nearby the park, so afterwards they decided to take a stroll.

"Hmm…Natsuki…do you want to play a game?"

Natsuki looked at Shizuru, who was walking a bit ahead of her, and walked faster to catch up. Smiling, she nodded earnestly. "Hmm…like what though?"

"How about…the 'what if' game?"

"Umm…okay, but you start."

"Okay…Natsuki…What if…What if Kazuko liked you?" Ah…stupid question!

Natsuki thought for a bit, and sighed. "No, honestly, I don't think it'd work out. I mean, seriously, even when I didn't know he was into guys I still wasn't …ya'know…I wasn't into him. I don't know. Is it my turn?"

Shizuru nodded a bit, and Natsuki thought again. "Shizuru, what if…what if we weren't best friends?"

Then we'd be lovers… "Then I would be missing out on a lot…I wouldn't be someone I am today."

"Is that good…?"

Shizuru looked a Natsuki's questioning eyes, and smiled. "Yes…completely good. I love who I am because of you. I mean, there are things I'm…not sure about myself…but…in the end…the times I spend with you…I love it…"

Natsuki blushed, and looked at Shizuru, before grabbing her hand and walking slowly. Shizuru blushed, before taking another deep breath. "What if…Natsuki…What if … we were lovers?"

Natsuki blushed, but, soon, all the blood drained away from her face. Of course, Shizuru froze, knowing that it was a big mistake. Feeling sweat on the palms of her hands, Shizuru looked down, and back up, biting her lip, and giving Natsuki a weak smile.

Natsuki looked at Shizuru, finally understanding what Romiro meant.

She…She only sees me?

Natsuki brought her hand up, and cupped Shizuru's cheek. Shizuru opened her eyes, and they two stared silently at each other. "If we were…then I'd do this…"

Natsuki brought her head closer, and closer…and soon, the indescribable feelings that took place…had occurred. The space between them closed, and If God did exist, there's no way he could turn something like this into a sin.

This was love. And honestly, it was utterly beautiful.
