Around a week and a half later, Monika awoke from the bedroom that she had prepared whenever she would sleep for the day. This bedroom was the MC's bedroom and she stretched while yawning, "I wonder what he's doing that takes so long."

She got up and went over to the closet in the room and stared at the only thing she had to wear apart from her pink pajamas, "Well, back to the old grind..."

"Well, back to the old grind...," A deep, almost idiotic voice spoke behind her.

"Oh, I forgot my bow," Confused, Monika reached for her bow that sat along a hook next to the door.

"Uh, me too," A hand reached out for it too as the same deep voice spoke once more. Monika looked over to the side as their hands met and Skylar smiling at her, "Good morning honey."

"S-Skylar!"

"Hey Monika."

"You're here so early."

"Well, it's been over a week since our last visit, so I decided to surprise you by waking you up, but I was a little too late."

"So you decided to go with doing a Spongebob thing?"

"You joined on it too," Monika blushed and turned away from him, "Aw come on. Spongebob was my childhood. Rip Stephen Hillenburg," Skylar looked at the left of him at the door confusing Monika.

"What are you doing?"

"Paying my respects..."

"By staring at the closet door?"

"Uh," Skylar stretched and chuckled, "Anyway, I have some plans for us today. Some plans that you'll definitely enjoy."

"Oh really?"

"Yeah, starting with this closet," Skylar ushered Monika back in which she did. Skylar slammed the door and brought up a menu from his left wrist, "Hopefully it works..."

"Is that...?"

"And," Skylar held the word a little longer than anticipated before he threw the door open saying, "Open!" The closet now revealed multiple types of clothing, "I spent the time actually getting you a wardrobe!"

"Whoa..."

"More sleepless nights but I was able to do it. Now, get yourself ready Monika. We are going on a date!"

"A date?"

"That's correct. With several more sleepless nights under my belt, I was able to make the pier we talked about last time. I've learned how to do stuff like that and hopefully we'll have more fun other than your classroom. However, this room is cozy too. There's a bed here too. Why don't we cuddle here sometimes?"

"Skylar..."

"Right, I know. Still, it would be nice to hold each other while laying down and just talking, right?"

"I-I guess..."

"Uh, I see the classroom there. I'll let you have your time and just talk to you while you change. There's some other stuff I need to tell you about."

"Oh, like what?"

Skylar walked into the classroom and looked around while saying, "Uh, I know you sort of disliked the fact that the girls were fake along with the other characters in the game, but in order to make this feel real, I added some artificial intelligence so that it can feel realistic."

"Uh..."

"I know you might not like it, but it would feel weird if it was just us. In fact, I didn't add just the pier. I added a whole town. That's also why it took so long. I wanted this to feel... authentic. Plus, we could go to a place to have dinner after our day at the pier. It's an actual date. Also, we could try to go window shopping."

"Why? Can't you just spawn my own clothing?"

"Hehe, sorry. I just want you to feel the authenticity for when you come over to my world. We won't be able to spawn anything there."

"True..."

"Don't worry, it's not entirely realistic. We have all the money in the world on this credit card I have. So if we wanna increase both of our wardrobes for this world, we can do that. I'll try and expand the town so that there's also nice suburbs."

"Where we can buy our own house?"

"Yup! Then we can be a real couple! Because I enjoy our relationship right now, but if I ever attempt to propose to you or have a special moment, I'd rather not have it be in this mundane place."

"I can't agree more and did you say propose?"

"Uh, haha, I guess I did..."

"You're cute. Hopefully I am as well in your eyes," Monika tapped on Skylar's shoulder causing him to turn around. She was wearing the white tank top and bluejeans that she wore for the Valentine Day update.

"Whew, haha, gorgeous."

"What was that nervous chuckle? Getting excited?" Monika rubbed up on Skylar's chest allowing her to feel him shudder, "You're extremely adorable Skylar. So, are we gonna go on our date?"

"Uh, yeah. One sec," Skylar brought up the console above his wrist and tapped around. Monika looked at the console and was fascinated by it, "Interested?"

"It looks pretty cool."

"It took a bit to set it up. The interface is actually a little jumbled up so there's still a lot of work that needs to be done on it."

"Still, it looks nice."

"And there we are," The classroom around them disappeared as their new setting was at the Santa Monica Pier. Monika's eyes lit up at the pier, "The Santa Monica Pier. A landmark of LA."

"This place looks amazing."

"It looks better at night, but the sun feels good when you're at the right time. Alright Monika, I have 8 hours of fuel on my generator. So we have plenty of time to do stuff. What should we do first?"

"I heard the pier has an aquarium. Let's go check it out!" Monika grabbed a hold of Skylar's hand and dragged him to the aquarium."

Once they arrived at the aquarium, Monika's eyes remained gleaming with excitement, "What do you wanna look at first? This isn't the first aquarium I've been too. I had a friend that once told me that once you've been to one, you've been to 'em all."

"That might be the case, but there are minor differences in them. Some will have different species of aquatic life along with more interactive exhibits which would be rare in an aquarium."

"Really? Because the one I went to also had a touch tank like this one," The both of them walked to a touch tank that had a lot of starfishes in it, "Still, it's nice. Hopefully there are variety with them. I remember the one I saw had a massive whale exhibit."

"A whale?"

"Oh yeah. It was a massive tank with beluga whales. That thing was awesome. "

"Well, this one is much smaller than your typical large scale aquarium."

"I can see that. Everything might feel tight, but it's amazing to look at," Monika started to touch a starfish in amazement, "Be careful sweetie. Those things can grab onto you."

"Don't worry, I'll be...," Monika paused for a short second before chuckling nervously, "Sweetie...," Monika looked up at Skylar with eyes that scream help me. Skylar could only sigh and smile at her.

After spending an hour and a half at the aquarium, Monika turned to Skylar outside the aquarium and asked him, "Where to now Skylar?"

"As all cliche pier moments are, I'm gonna try and win you a prize!"

"Oh, are you good at any of the games?"

"Define good?"

"Decent?"

"Define Decent."

"Bad?"

"There's a word I'm familiar with."

"Don't sell yourself short. Let's go win each other a prize!"

-4 hours later-

"You know, if this was the real world, I'd be in debt right now," Skylar was now seen surrounded in stuffed animals and other prizes while Monika held nothing, "I still can't believe I couldn't even win the simple games..."

"Don't be sad. We still got prizes."

"Yeah, but I wanted you to feel special when I got you one," Skylar leaned back until something caught his eye, "Wait! I still have a chance!"

"What?" Without answering her, Skylar jumped up and sprinted to what he saw, "Skylar!" Monika followed Skylar to a Test your Strength game, "Skylar please..."

"No, I can win this. This is a classic industrial test your strength game. I've won these before. Those electric ones are a scam. These are fair," Skylar handed the game manager some money and nodded before taking the mallet, "I'm gonna win you something sweetie!"

"Skylar, you don't have to. Our day has been perfect so far."

"Yeah, but for me, it's a sense of being someone right for you. Also, it was kinda humiliating being destroyed by you in every game we played."

"Oh, so you're competitive?"

"More or less."

"Good, because I am too, but I'll let you have this."

Skylar nodded as he gripped the mallet fiercely, "Come on. All those years working out should help me here!" Skylar brought the mallet down and the sweet sound of the bell ringing filled his ears.

"You won!" Monika cheered, "You did it!" She hugged Skylar as the manager handed them both a large bunny.

"Whoo-hoo!"

Later that night, about an hour or 2 later, both of them were seated at a restaurant awaiting there food, "Satisfied with your win?"

"Yeah. I'm glad I was able to get you something."

"You didn't have to do that Skylar."

"It was the principal of things..."

"Well, if you're happy, I'm happy. I didn't think you'd actually be able to win that game. You don't seem like the one to be... athletic due to your past."

"I workout daily so I won't be undesirable."

"But you're not undesirable."

"Of course I'm not. Have you seen these?" Skylar started to flex as Monika chuckled, "Go on. Really, it's real."

"Fine," Monika started to feel his muscles and was highly impressed, "Oh, it is quite toned. What about your torso? Anything there?"

"Mm, how about we go on a date soon once I get more fuel. We can have a beach date and actually do some other stuff rather than waste our time playing games. There you can see my toned body."

"Okay," A short moment of silence was ahred before something cross Monika's mind, "By the way, about this fuel, do you have to go somewhere specific?"

"Yeah. It's somewhere very discreet. In fact, it's on the black market. So I insist that we don't talk about it too much."

"Skylar..."

"Don't worry. They take normal currency. It's just that it's a very rare fuel that people would do anything to get their hands on it. In fact, the fuel's name is something I can't even disclose."

"Oh..."

"I'm fine though."

"Okay, I don't want you to be in danger for anything outside of here. Remember, I won't know about what happens to you out there. Think about it."

"I know. Don't worry, I'll try my very best to be safe my sweetie..."

"Thank you..."

"Well, let's enjoy our dinner here and... just enjoy one's company...," Skylar took a grasp of Monika's hand and the two of them smiled at one another.
