„Okay, Hotaru, I'll take my cell phone with me." Michiru promised her daughter, who rolled her eyes. "Momma! I'm old enough to stay at home alone. I'm already twelve!" Michiru sighed and nodded. "I know. But if anything happens, call me." "Yes, momma." Hotaru promised, pushing her mother towards the door. "Now get ready! Tenoh-san will be here every minute!" Michiru just opened her mouth to say something when the doorbell rang. The aqua haired woman could feel how her heartbeat increased, and she quickly checked herself over in the mirror. Her long, dark blue dress was fitting perfectly to her body, and it brought out her eyes. Taking in a deep breath, Michiru walked to the door and opened it. Haruka stood outside, smiling, a bouquet of red roses in her hand. "Hello." Michiru greeted her, smiling. Haruka smiled even broader and held the roses out to her. "Hello, Michiru-chan. Here, these are for you." Michiru beamed while she took the flowers. "Thank you! Just wait one minute, I'll put them into a vase." Haruka nodded, and Michiru walked into the kitchen, giving the blonde a good chance to awe at her beauty. As soon as she was back, Haruka offered her arm to her, grinning. "Shall we go then, my Lady?" Michiru giggled and accepted the offered arm. "My pleasure, Sir." Haruka smiled down on her, and the two of them left the apartment complex.
"I hope you like Italian food." Haruka spoke while she drove her car down the street, on the way to Luigi's. "I love it." Michiru replied, smiling. Haruka grinned at her. "Great." Finally, the two of them reached the restaurant, Haruka parked her car and gallantly held Michirus door open. "Thanks a lot." The aqua haired woman smiled. Haruka closed the door and locked her car before Michiru and she walked into the restaurant. The waiter who stood at the entrance looked at them. "Did you reserve, Sir?" Haruka nodded. "Yes, two seats, for Tenoh." The waiter nodded and accompanied the two women to one of the desks. He brought the menus, lit the candle that stood on the desk and left discretely. Haruka and Michiru both opened their menus, although Haruka already knew what she would eat. Ten minutes later, the waiter showed up again, taking up the drinks. Both women decided to have anti alcoholic drinks, Haruka because she had to drive, and Michiru because she didn't want to end up drunk again like the night when Haruka had stayed at her place. "What are you going to eat?" the aqua haired woman asked as soon as the waiter had vanished again. "I'll take the Fettuccine with cheese sauce." Haruka informed her. "And you?" she then asked. "I think I'll have the Ravioli a la Bolognese." Michiru smiled. "Just be careful, so you don't stain yourself with the sauce." Haruka chuckled. Michiru shot her a faked glare. "I never stain myself, Tenoh-san." She then said, sticking her nose high up in the air. Haruka chuckled at her friend's behavior and shook her head. The waiter came once more, and both women ordered their food. "I hope the cook is a fast one, I'm starving." Michiru said as soon as the man had vanished. "Usually the food always comes fast here." Haruka calmed her down. There was silence for a few moments, until Michiru spoke up. "Thanks for taking me on this date, Haruka-chan." The aqua haired woman softly said. "You're welcome." Haruka replied, smiling. "I'm the one who has to say Thanks. After all, you accepted my invitation." Michiru reached out, placing her hand on top of Harukas. The blonde looked at her surprised, but her surprise turned into happiness when Michiru gently stroke the back of her hand. They just sat there, looking into each others eyes, until the food came.
"Would you like to go to a bar?" Haruka asked after she had paid the dinner and the two women left the restaurant. Michiru smiled up at her and nodded, causing the blonde to grin. They reached the car, Haruka unlocked it and the two of them got in. Haruka drove to a well-known dance café, where slow music was played, and the two women entered. At first they took a seat at the bar, and Haruka wondered if she should ask Michiru to dance. She quickly came to a decision when her favorite song, "Somethin' Stupid" by Nicole Kidman and Robbie Williams, started to play. "May I ask for this dance, young Lady?" the blonde asked, smiling. Michiru gratefully accepted, and the two of them made their way over to the dance floor. Michiru put her arms around Harukas neck while the blonde laid hers around Michirus waist, and they started to dance, Michirus eyes never leaving Harukas.
