Koishiwa Miki was lying on her bed, trying to do her math homework, but couldn't stop thinking of Matsuura Yuu, her step-brother, when he suddenly entered the room. "I've got chocolate chip cookies and mint tea if you want any." He said, setting the tray on her dresser and sitting down next to her. "You've been in here since our parents left for Hawaii yesterday, so I figured you might be getting hungry by now." Miki blushed, hoping she hadn't said anything about what she was thinking about out loud and slowly nodded, taking a cookie into her hand.
"What are you doing?" He asked, looking over onto the notebook lying on the bed in front of her. Miki quickly covered it up, as her so called 'math homework' had little drawings of Yuu all over it. Her step-brother raised his eyebrow and shook his head. "Thinking about something you don't trust telling me about?" He pried, grinning, and biting into one of the cookies.
Miki blushed severely and closed her notebook. He must've seen the drawings! He was teasing her. . . The teenage girl closed her eyes and frowned. "It's none of your business, Yuu!" Yuu smirked and said. "I think it is. You're deep in thought, you've been getting really jealous of Arimi lately, and you don't seem mad about Ginta in the least anymore." Miki turned even more red than she had before and demanded, "What are you suggesting?!"
Koishiwa's step-brother leaned over until his nose touched hers and he stuck his tongue out so it nearly grazed her lips. "Perhaps you've accumulated feelings for me?" Miki's eyes went wide and she backed up, pushing Matsuura away from her face. "I-I do not!" She protested. He smiled in return and said, "Miki-chan, if I remember correctly, I told you I liked you at the Wonder Dog, and I even kissed you! I *do* like you, Miki. If I ever lost you to Ginta. . . or *anyone* for that matter, I don't know what I'd do. I wouldn't be able to stand it! So. . . do you like me too, step- sister?"
Miki turned an unhealthy color and raised her hand to slap Yuu across the face, causing him to wince and brace himself. 'He's always teasing me. . .!' She thought angrily. Much to the girl's surprise however, she found that she couldn't hit him. "I. . . I've got to get to school!" She said anxiously, and got up from the bed. Yuu lashed out and grabbed her arm, chuckling. "It's Saturday, Miki. You've got all the time in the world to think about it."
The girl sat back down, lowering her eyes to the cover on her bed, and whispered, "Are you joking?" Yuu shook his head and put his hand on Miki's cheek. "I wouldn't joke about something like this. But. . . I can see you need time to give me an answer, so I'll be downstairs making dinner." With that, he took off down the stairs and to the kitchen. "What on earth. . ." Miki muttered to herself.
Yuu smirked to himself when he enter the kitchen, and gathered the ingredients for grilled cheese sandwiches. "One. . . Two. . . Three. . ." Sure enough, he suddenly felt a tap on his shoulder, and turned around to Koishiwa. "Decided so soon, koi?" Miki's eyes shot wide and she stared at her step-brother. 'He called me love. . .' She thought to herself, then shook it off and changed the subject. "Wha. . . what are you making?" Yuu showed her the frying grilled cheese in response, then said, "There are some potato chips in the cabinet if you want some of them with your lunch. And there are some sodas in the refrigerator."
Miki nodded and pulled out the potato chips, then grabbed two cokes for her and Matsuura, and sat them on the table at their spots. "It'll be ready in just a second. Can you please get out the plates and set them out?" The teenage girl nodded once again, and did as Yuu asked. "Domo arigato." He told her, as he came by with the sandwiches. He then pulled out her chair and motioned for her to sit down. Miki did so, and Yuu leaned down and left a butterfly kiss on her cheek, then took his seat as well.
Once again, Miki shook it off.
"So do you want to go out for dinner?" Yuu suddenly suggested, "Of course, it'd be on me. We would go to Gokou-Hime (AN: No, I'm not saying Gokou from DBZ is a princess! It means 'Rice Princess'!!!), so you'd need to wear a dress. I'll even wear a tuxedo if you want to go!" Miki stood up and put her empty plate into the sink and then turned around to Yuu, smiling brightly. "I'd love to!" She declared, running upstairs to change.
As Miki rummaged through her closet for something to wear to the restaurant, she didn't see anything she liked. There was a pink dress that was rather cute, but much too frilly. There was a pastel green one that looked nice but there was a tear in one sleeve and it was several sizes too small. She could always wear her sakura kimono, but it was uncomfortable to sit down in. She also had a yin yang Chinese kimono, but if she wore that, it'd look like she was preparing for a Ranma 1/2 cosplay, and well, she wasn't. The only other dress she had was black and a little low cut in the front, as it was one size too big. It was an okay dress, but she didn't like wearing black. Suddenly, the phone rang.
"Hello?" Miki asked, picking it up. "Oh, Meiko! Hi. . . Really? Well why don't you come over here for awhile? Our parents are staying in Hawaii for the next two weeks, so it's just us here. Want to? . . . Okay! Be over in just a little while, alright? . . . Oh, and Meiko, can you please bring some dresses? Yuu and I going out to dinner and I don't have any cute dresses. . . All of yours are so nice! . . . Oh, thank you! . . . No! It's not a date! . . . Well, just hurry. Bye!" With that, she hung up the phone, and clasped her hands together and looked at the ceiling. "Thank Kami-sama for Meiko-chan. . .!"
Miki knew that Meiko could only be over for about three hours because it was already four o'clock, and her and Yuu would be leaving around seven- thirty for Gokou-Hime. After fifteen minutes of the teenager impatiently pacing around her room, Meiko finally arrived. "Ooh, domo arigato, Meiko- chan! I honestly don't know *what* I'd do without you!" Meiko smirked and replied, "I bet you'd be downstairs flirting with your date for tonight!" She said teasingly. Miki narrowed her eyes at her best friend and grabbed her bag in which about eight dresses resided.
Inside there was pastel blue dress, identical to that green one Miki had, two kimonos, one red, and one purple with a pink floral pattern, a blue and red striped dress with spaghetti straps and a short skirt, which Miki felt looked a bit too skimpy for her, an orange dress that went to the knees and had sunflowers all over it, a frilly white dress that looked like a wedding gown, a dress that was tie-dye and straight all the way down so you had to wear something around the waist, an old kimono that looked like a priestess' outfit to wear around a shrine, a sailor suit two-piece that resembled a school uniform at some of the local schools, and finally, a pastel yellow dress with cute little goldfish all over it, that came with shoes that weren't too high, but not flat. It had sleeves, but they were small and made to come down the shoulder somewhat.
"Oh, Meiko! Can I borrow this one? It's sooo kawaii!" Miki cried, lifting up the yellow one and dancing around the room with it in front of her. Meiko clapped her hands together. "Of course! Go put it on! I want to see what it looks like on you!" Miki nodded happily and ran down the hallway from her room to the bathroom.
A few minutes later, she re-entered the room with the dress on and spun around to demonstrate how well it fit on her. "It looks *perfect* on you, Miki! It's a little too small for me, so you can keep it." Meiko told her, giving her friend a hug. Koishiwa smiled and sat down at the chair in front of her vanity and mirror. "Arigato, Meiko-chan! This dress is so kawaii!" The blonde girl grinned and picked yellow eye shadow and pink shiny lip gloss up off of Miki's vanity. "I'm going to do your makeup, okay? I want you to look as nice as possible for tonight. It is, after all, your first *real* date with Yuu!" Miki turned bright pink and was going to deny it, but she realized Meiko was right. "I guess so. . ." She whispered.
Suddenly, Yuu's head popped into the room. "Hey Miki, it's almost six so Meiko will have to leave soon. . . Tell her she can come spend the night tomorrow, though. Our parents said we could have a party if we keep it clea- " His voice cut out suddenly as he noticed Miki's attire. His eyes widened and he began gawking. "Cute, isn't she?" Meiko questioned, beaming at Matsuura. Yuu finally got a hold of himself and walk over to Miki, who was as red as could be. "Wha. . . what do you think?" She asked quietly, putting her hands behind her back. Yuu nodded and put one of his hands on Miki's waist. "You look. . . *great*. . ." He told her, then turned around. "Do you think you could come over for the night tomorrow, Meiko? We're going to have a party, and we could use some help setting it up. . ." Miki's best friend nodded and replied, "I'd be happy to!"
Finally, Meiko left and it was time for Yuu and Miki to leave on their 'date'. "Are you ready, Miki? The limousine is here!" Yuu yelled from the den next to the door. Miki suddenly came running down the stairs and fell right into Yuu's arms. "Uh. . . yeah. . ." She told him, blushing. Yuu shook his head laughingly and opened the door, motioning for her to go out. "Ladies first."
