Finally!! Chapter 3!!! Whoo.....enjoy! AMYxGREG FOREVER!!!!
Notes for this chapter only: The "new hit group" mentioned in this chapter is mine. HOWEVER!!!!! *IF* there is a J-pop group with that name, I swear I don't know about it, so don't sue me. Think of it as a complement because I said they are a hit group. LOL. Also, I don't remember where Greg went after he left after his 2nd appearance in the show, but this is an AU fic & I'm a New Yorker, so I thought it'll be cool for him to go there.
And the song the band is singing isn't theirs. It'll be credited later.

Chapter 3: My first date!
//So what's the deal (what's the deal)
This don't seem real (this don't seem real)
This kind of thing only happens in my dreams
(Thing only happens in my dreams)
When boy meets girl (oh yeah)
A perfect world (a perfect world)
This sort of thing only happens in my dreams
(This only happens in my dream)//
~*Amy*~
Thinks are going really great since Greg and I admitted our feelings in the park. The both of us had a euphoric feeling going home and well.....we had a long goodbye kiss session (Serena said we made out, but I disagree...).
We tried to keep it a secret for a while so we can enjoy time to ourselves to develop our relationship, but the scouts dragged it out of me during a temple study session, even Raye! So I told them how Greg and I met on my way home from school and our confession in the park. I still can't believe they cried. Our getting together isn't as big and sentimental as Serena and Darien's, but it was perfect and sweet enough for me and Greg. We're happy now so that's all that matters...
Right now I'm getting ready for my 1st date with Greg. I'm so excited. I'm not usually a vain person, but I acted girl crazy the whole day and went through my closet. I wanted to seem more mature and grown up but not send out an "I'm sexy!!" look. After a few hours of matching, mismatching and coordinating, I found the perfect outfit.
I picked out a spaghetti strapped blue top. It's not low cut in the front and it stopped mid back, so I feel covered. Then I found a black wrap around skirt that ties at the side. It stopped about half an inch from the knee, and I tied the bow on the side. Then I found some strap tie sandals with a low heel my mom got me last year but I never wore, so they were brand new. I practiced walking in them to see if I'd fall, but I actually got it right. And to finish my look, I picked up the black satin purse with a black jeweled butterfly on the front. It was my birthday gift from Serena this year.
I grabbed my make up kit I brought a while ago for the Junior High prom. I rarely used it but today was a special occasion. Ever since Greg came back, I've always felt the need to look better. Not just for him but for me. Love makes you crazy. I'm really Crazy in love.
//Got me looking so crazy right now, your love's
Got me looking so crazy right now (in love)
Got me looking so crazy right now, your touch
Got me looking so crazy right now (your touch)
Got me hoping you'll page me right now, your kiss
Got me hoping you'll save me right now
Looking so crazy in love's,
Got me looking, got me looking so crazy in love//
At 6:00 on the dot, the doorbell rang. Good thing I finished my make up by then, I usually never wear anything but lip gloss, but tonight I used the look Mina recommended. After I put on my liquid to power foundation, I wore a bit of black eye shadow (to bring out my eyes more), a hint of blush, and some pinkish lipstick. I ran downstairs & opened the door. I swear I stopped breathing at that moment....
~*Greg*~
Wow! Amy looks so beautiful! But when did she start wearing make up? She's so beautiful without it. At least she put it on nicely, unlike some girls who put on too much like they're trying to hide something rather than enhance what they have. I hope she thinks I look alright.
I decided on black jeans and a black button down silk shirt that had a blue script "G" on the pocket. I brought it when I got back to town. I hope she likes it. In my right hand, I held a small white box nervously.
"Hey Amy! You look fantastic!", I said. Man was she fantastic.....I noticed that Amy blushed a bit, even under the make up.
"Thanks Greg. Come in, I just have to get my sweater out the closet and then we can go", Amy said as Greg walked in. She shut the door and walked down the hall. She came back with a black V-neck sweater that she tied around her waist. "Ready?".
"Just a second. Here I brought this for you....", I said as I handed her the box.
"Oh Greg, you didn't have to!", Amy said with a small smile as she opened the box. I smiled when she gasped. I brought her a silver charm bracelet. "Oh...Greg it's beautiful!! I love it..".
"Look at the charm", I said with a grin.
Amy picked it up and looked at the charm. I had it engraved! The words said 'To my love Amy, I held my heart on a line. You caught me. Greg'. She looked at me with misty eyes. She leans up and kissed me.
"Thanks. I love you", Amy said with her sweet smile. The one that attracted me to her almost two years ago.
"Anything for you", I said giving her a hug. I put the bracelet on her right arm and then we left.
~*Amy*~
That was a total surprise!! I couldn't believer he brought me such a lovely gift. While we were in the car, I kept toying with it. It's so wonderful...
Greg drove us to a resturant in the park. It had lights in the trees and a live band playing romantic classical music. while we ate, Greg told me about living in New York over the past year and a half. He told me that students in New York usually start High School at 14 instead of 15, they had many art museums and huge libraries, and that the Japanese culture is especially popular there.
The part that interested me more is that Hello Kitty has so many stores there. He said that mostly adults and girls go there. He even saw a married couple getting Hello Kitty furniture and appliances for their new home! I think it was sweet though. He also mentioned an Anime Convention called the Big Apple Anime Fest. It's just like the ones at home, so there wasn't much to talk about there.
I mostly told him about scout business. But I told him like I read about it in the paper, not my personal views and experiences because someone might be listening. He seemed especially interested when I told him about Rini and Pegasus and about Princess Kaguya. Greg said he knew something was happening when Kaguya invaded because even the news over there reported on how the temperatures dropped dangerously low in the eastern part of the world and how ships couldn't deliver imports for a while.
And I told him about what the other scouts are going to do after High School. Serena and Darien planned on moving in together when Serena goes to college. They were thinking about it for a while, but it was no surprise to us. Needless to say that Serena's dad doesn't like the idea, but Serena will be an adult after High School is over, so he can't say much about it then. Everyone is surprised by Serena's major. She wants to be a teachers for children and open up her own preschool. Believe it or not, Serena has gotten pretty smart since High School started. But I believe that it's Rini who encouraged her to pick that major.
Raye wants to study ancient religious artifacts in Europe and about how she's taking tests for it. It's a special exchange student program. She had a choice between European countries, other Asian countries, America, Africa and Mexico. Since she's going for a full 4 year college term, she got to pick two countries. Raye decided on Italy for the first 2 years, then she picked France. She's really excited about it.
Lita, of course, wants her own restaurant and plans on going to a cooking school. She wants to go to the New York cooking schools because they are some of the best rated in the world. She wants to study there then work as a manager or chef in a restaurant in Japan to save money for her own shop.
Mina is still into acting, but she wants to have her own beauty company. She says she'll act and promote her beauty company after college. and we all get discounts and free products. We all laughed at that.
Amara wants to be a mechanic and open her garage. She's working in one right now to gain enough experience. And as for Michelle, she's working on her swimming and Violin. She's won many competitions in both, but she might make music her major and just keep swimming as a hobby.
While we ate our dessert, I noticed that Greg was listening to me, but seemed to be elsewhere. I hope I didn't say anything wrong...
"Am I talking too much?", I said raising an eyebrow.
"No no! I'm listening. It's all interesting and all but...I want to know what you want to do Amy. Want to do want in your life?", Greg asked, looking at me intensely.
Usually I feel under pressure when people look at me that way, but for some reason...I didn't. I looked into his eyes and saw straight into his soul and thought about my future...our future. I knew what I wanted to do for years, but I didn't want it all alone.
"...I just want you", I answered honestly, looking back into his eyes.
~*Greg*~
Oh God! I'm sitting here listening to this sapphire eyed angel speak and I felt like flying. I wanted to know what she wants in life and all she said was me! I wanted her too, but I never thought I'd hear it from her. I grasped her hand gently and smiled.
"I want you too....", I said softly.
Looking her over I noticed that the stars and candle light made her shine glow and look achingly touchable. Her hair moved gently in the wind, wisping at her face and her lips were full. This was the perfect moment. I had to kiss her. I leaned in slowly and we closed our eyes the moment our lips touched. I let out a low, satisfied moan as Amy did. It was heaven on earth, and she is my angel.
After dinner we walked around the park and found a concert. Japan's new hit group, "Fantasy", was playing. They were an all male pop-rock band . Mom and I adore them and didn't know there were having a free concert in the park. But this one had the band on stage singing under a canopy, and a dance floor was set up.
They were singing their number 1 hit song, "Truly, Madly, Deeply". I looked down at Amy and held out a hand.
"You wanna dance?", I asked with a wide grin.
"I'd love to", Amy said smiling.
I led her to the middle of the dance floor. I put my hands on her hips and she put her arms around my neck. We dances close, swaying gently with the music's mellow rhythm. I rubbed my cheek into her sweet smelling hair, happy that everything is so perfect. Then Amy's gentle voice broke me out of her spell.
"Greg?".
"Yes Amy?".
"Thanks for loving me..".
"...Anything for you".
We shared another long kiss then continued as the band began to sing.
I'll be your dream, I'll be your wish I'll be your fantasy.
I'll be your hope, I'll be your love be everything that you need.
I love you more with every breath truly madly deeply do..
I will be strong I will be faithful 'cos
I'm counting on a new beginning.
A reason for living. a deeper meaning.
I want to stand with you on a mountain.
I want to bathe with you in the sea.
I want to lay like this forever.
Until the sky falls down on me...
And when the stars are shining brightly in the velvet sky,
I'll make a wish send it to heaven then make you want to cry..
The tears of joy for all the pleasure and the certainty.
That we're surrounded by the comfort and protection of..
The highest power. in lonely hours. the tears devour you..
I want to stand with you on a mountain,
I want to bathe with you in the sea.
I want to lay like this forever,
Until the sky falls down on me...
(Bridge)
Oh can't you see it baby? You don't have to close your eyes
cos it's standing right before you.
All that you need will surely come...
I'll be your dream I'll be your wish I'll be your fantasy.
I'll be your hope I'll be your love be everything that you need.
I'll love you more with every breath truly madly deeply do...
I want to stand with you on a mountain,
I want to bathe with you in the sea.
I want to lay like this forever,
Until the sky falls down on me...
[repeat until fade]
I want to stand with you on a mountain....

Too sweet? Too blah? I love it. I actually wrote all this in about an hour. 6 pages of AmyxGreg SugarFluffyness! I could actually see the whole date unfolding in my mind. I wish my 1st date went this well. It wasn't all that great. The only perfect date I had was with my 2nd boyfriend (note: I only had 3 dates in my entire life, so you can see why I write so much. I rarely go out. LOL). Man, THAT was heaven! I sorta based this chapter on it, so I hope you all liked it.
