' I wonder how aiko is doing...I haven't seen her in a while...is she out looking for ingredients? Or is she at home right now?' Toriko though as he dropped off his catch to tomu
" you okay Toriko? you seem quiet" tomu said
" I'm fine tomu" Toriko said 'maybe I should visit her when I'm done here' he though
As tomu looked at Toriko " is it about you're girlfriend aiko ?" As Toriko slightly blushed
" she's not my girlfriend! she's just a friend!" Toriko said as tomu didn't believe him
" yeah right Toriko a girl like her she's quiet the catch you should ask her out" tomu said as he smiled " I know just the place to take a girl like her"
A few moments later as Toriko was in front of aiko's house.
' this is where she lives now I just gotta knock on the door' Toriko though as he placed his hand up to knock but the door was opened as he stopped looking at Aiko as he froze Aiko wore a light pink sundress as her hair was in two low pigtails tied with a matching pink ribbon Toriko couldn't help but blush looking at her.
" Toriko-San!" Aiko said happily as she hugged him " it's so good to see you!"
" it's good to see you too Aiko" Toriko said " are you busy today?"
" no I was just going to look for you Toriko-San" Aiko said
' she was going to look for me? For what?'he though
" I though it might be nice to go for a walk together" Aiko said
" I have something better in mind" Toriko said taking out a white cloth.
A few minutes later
" toriko-San where are we going?" Aiko ask as she was blindfolded as she holding a basket. As Terry was next to her.
" we're almost there Aiko" toriko said " just keep that on" ' I hope tomu was right about this place ' he though
" okay Aiko we're here" as Aiko took her blindfold off as her smile widen at his surprise.
" Toriko-San! This is amazing!" Aiko said " so many sunflowers! It's a whole garden of them! Different colors and sizes!" As she walked as Terry followed her as she smelled the flowers.
' I'm glad you like it Aiko' toriko though ' tomu said that this place is famous for the sunflowers and something else too I can't remember' as he looked at aiko as she sat on the ground with a small bundle of sunflowers. ' she looks really happy' as he felt Terry nudge at him to go to aiko.
" what are you doing?" Toriko ask
" almost...and done!" As she held out a flower crown " when i was a kid I always love making one!" As she put it on her head as she smiled making Toriko blush a bit. " so how does it look?"
" you look really nice aiko" he said as she smiled
" Oh Toriko-San I brought a basket with me so we could have lunch" aiko said
" Yeah! I'm hungry!" Toriko said happily
As toriko set the blanket down as aiko set the basket taking out a lot of containers since she knew how big toriko's appetite is she made sure to make a lot of it.
" itadakimasu" the two said
" here I made a lot of riceballs" Aiko said showing different kinds of riceballs " each one are different combinations of flavors " as she picked one up " have a bite toriko-San" as she held it out to him
' is she feeding me?' He though ' it's just like when we went to get the jewel meat...' As he took a bite of the riceball. "this taste! I can't get enough of it! is this gingerpig and honey?! Yum!" He said
" yeah I caught the gingerpig and I cut it up as I seasoned it and I marinated using honey from the honey dragon then I just grilled it" aiko said " I though it might be good in a rice ball"
" it's so Good!" Toriko's said taking a few more as he ate it happily.
" now try this one" aiko said holding another rice ball as he took a bite.
" yum! Milkscallop and devil snake meat! " toriko said " you fried the meat to give it that crispy texture the milkscallop gives it a real good taste!"
" yep I though of a surf and turf kind of idea so I put that in the riceball I'm glad you like it" aiko said " I also brought some tea and juice too so take your pick"
" all of these are so good aiko!" Toriko said between bites as he smiled " you'd make one heck of a wife!" As he slightly froze at what he said as he blushed as he stared at aiko as she slightly blushed as she smiled brightly at him.
" that's so nice of you to say that Toriko-San" aiko said as she went closer to Toriko as he slightly blush as he felt his heart beating fast as she place her hand on his cheek.
' is she going to kiss me?!' He though as he closed his eyes as the felt something in his cheek as he opened his eyes looking at aiko.
" Toriko-San you've got rice all over your face" she said using her handkerchief wiping the residue as he slightly blushed as she went back to her seat as she slowly ate her riceball.
' I...can't be In love... she's my friend...' He though as he ate a riceball.
" Terry have some!" Aiko said setting a plate as Terry sniffed it as terry just licked the riceball.
As they finished the picnic they walked along the flower field a bit as Terry rested away from them.
' this place is really pretty I'm happy that Toriko-San brought me here he's really nice I might have to think of something to repay him for showing me this place...but what?' Aiko though as she though deeply by this as she didn't notice where she was walking as she trip but before she fell she grabbed onto Toriko as they both fell rolling down the hill as they stopped at the ground.
" ouch...are you okay Toriko-San?" Aiko said as she opened her eyes only to see Toriko on top of her staring at her.
' my heart is pounding like crazy now being this close to her...' He though as he didn't move as he looked at aiko as both of them stared at each other not moving an inch.
' is he okay? He seems kinda nervous' aiko though "Toriko-San?" She whispered
"Aiko" he said looking in her eyes as she felt herself heat up by his gaze.
As they heard a sound from on top of the hill as the two quickly got up as Terry got down looking at Toriko and aiko.
" we're fine Terry" aiko said petting Terry's head as Terry licked her hand as she looked up " oh Toriko-San look!" As she pointed at the beautiful sunset " it's so pretty!"
' not as pretty as you Aiko...' Toriko though
As they both stared at the sunset after a while.
Leaving the sunflower garden aiko and Toriko left together as Terry followed. as Toriko followed the girl down the streets, he didn't like the idea of Aiko walking alone. She needed to safe by his side, just in case some men, tried to pick her up.
"Toriko-San, let's have some of those!" Aiko exclaimed , spotting a dessert stand, that was selling out crepes, grabbing hold of toriko's hand, dragging him over she knew if it's anything food related he'd happily follow.
"Hi! Can I have one plumpeach crepe and one cherringo crepe can you make one of those really big for him!" Aiko excited asked, seconds later, receiving what she asked for, as aiko paid it she handed the bigger one over to Toriko.
"Here Toriko-San Eat up!" Aiko said taking a bite out of her own. as Toriko took a bite out of his own.
"Yum!" Toriko said
" I love the plumpeach in this one!" Aiko said " try a bite toriko-San!" As she held out her crepe as toriko took a bite.
" Yum! With the flavor of the cherringo in this one with the plumpeach in the other it's a tropical carnival in my mouth!" Toriko said " try mine Aiko!" As Aiko took a bite as she agreed happily.
After finishing they're dessert, the two took off walking again, but this time Toriko spotted a ice cream stand ahead.
"Aiko, wait a bit il order for us." Toriko said , as Aiko let him, as she was okay with it she just wanted something sweet and sat in a empty bench. A few minutes later, Toriko returned, but he was carrying a huge ice-cream sundae, taking a seat in front of Aiko.
"Wow, that's really big!" Aiko said
"We can share this one together!" Toriko said as the two shared some of the delicious treat as Toriko watched how cutely aiko ate it. Noticing that she ate a few chocoberries as he took his spoon filled with ice cream and a chocoberry.
" You like these chocoberries?" Toriko said as Aiko nod as Toriko put his spoon in front of Aiko which she happily ate it. ' she makes a really cute face when she eats' he though
After finishing the ice cream they walked out of town to aiko's house as they stopped in her front door.
" Toriko-San I had a lot of fun this is a small thanks" Aiko said reaching up on her tiptoes, and gave a small peck to Toriko's cheek, pulling back, smiling softly up at him. taking off inside her house leaving behind a mad blushing Toriko, placing a hand to his cheek, to where Aiko just kissed him.
' I was wrong I'm In love...I'm definitely In love with you Aiko...' Toriko though as he looked at aiko's house as he started walking back to his house.
