Sorry I haven't been updating well enough to meet your demands…

Gotta study!

I know some of you people are angry for me not updating but I've been really busy! So please forgive me!

So to make it up to you I'll make this chappie very long!

That night, Akaya could not sleep. He was constantly turning and turning in his bed. He grumbled.

Just be myself…

Right…

He snorted. He tossed to the other side of the bed, trying to fins a comfortable spot to sleep. He sighed.

I give up

He stood up and opened the lights. He walked up to a mirror and he looked at himself and took a deep breath.

Act normal Akaya, you can do it… don't loose your cool tomorrow. "Just be yourself…" Fuji says… but I can't keep calm… what if I blow it! What if I embarrass myself… what if I embarrass her! Ohh… I'm going to screw up… I just know it! Why? Oh WHY! Did I even bother ask her out in the first place? I'm soo screwed!

He sighed… he plopped back to his bed not noticing that the time was already 3'o clock… he had not slept at all because he was thinking too much.

Akaya soon drifted to sleep. His alarm clock rang at 10'o clock. He slowly came up from his bed.

Oh… man… I'm still sleepy… gotta… must wake UP…

Akaya went into the shower…

The water is warm… how unlucky…

When he got out of the shower he was still sleepy… he wore a shirt and pants and a white jacket. He closed the door to his house and locked it. He yawned

yawn

When he approached Amaya's house he rand the doorbell.

After a few moments, Amaya came out from the door with a smile on her face.

"Good Morning…"

"Good…. Morning… Amaya…"

Amaya smiled…

It was then that Akaya realized what Amaya was wearing.

She was wearing a cute pink long sleeved shirt and a white mini-skirt just like what they wear in tennis.

Akaya's eyes opened for a while…

"You look cute…"

Amaya blushed…

"Shall we go then?" Amaya said.

"Err… Sure…"

And Amaya and Akaya walked towards their date.

"So… where are we going?" Amaya asked.

"Hmnnn… I never thought of that yet…"

"Really?"

"Well… where do you like to go?"

"I don't know… something fun…" Amaya said.

"Okay… I know just the place…"

Akaya led Amaya to the amusement park.

(A/N: awwww)

They entered the amusement park with Akaya of course paying for the entrance fee.

"So… where do you want to go?" Akaya asked as they were walking along the path…

"I don't know… what do you like?"

"Hmmm… wanna go on the roller coaster?" Akaya said sleepily.

"Okay…"

They rode the rollercoaster…

After the ride was over Amaya yawned…

That was a boring ride… and they call that scary

It was then Akaya woke up…

Whoa… that was dizzy… well at least it woke up! I can finally think clearly! Okay… where do we go next? Aha!

"Amaya wanna eat?"

"Umm Okay…"

They sat in a café nearby and ordered some food. They were greeted by the mascot of the amusement park and were taken a picture. They were shocked. They received the photo of the two of them.

Amaya blushed.

Akaya blushed.

"Sooo… Amaya Fuji's going to teach you doubles eh?"

"Yep…"

"When?"

"Depends on when we like it…"

"Ah…"

"…"

"…"

"Hey…"

"Hmn?"

"Wanna go to the fish museum?"

"I love going there…"

"That's why we're going…"

Akaya led her to the museum. Amaya was soo happy; she was walking from tank to tank looking at the manta rays, school of fish. A shark, sea urchins, octopuses and other marine animals. She would look at them with much astonishment and smile.

Akaya meanwhile was not interested in the fish but in Amaya's reaction. He loved seeing her be happy. He loved seeing her like this. He loved everything about her. Even her mistakes and imperfection.

They got out of the museum to find it almost dark. Amaya shivered. Akaya noticed it and took out his jacket and placed it on her shoulders.

Amaya blushed.

"Let's go ride the Ferris wheel before we go."

"Okay" Amaya said.

They made their way to the Ferris wheel. They entered a room and the wheel began to move.

Akaya and Amaya were both sitting at the opposite of each other. Silence was only there halfway on the trip. It was only on the top when the wheel suddenly stopped. The lights went out on the whole town. Unfortunately there was no generator.

"What happened?" Amaya asked as she stood up.

Akaya stood up and held Amaya's hand.

"It's alright… the power will come back again…"

"I hope so…"

"I'm sorry…"

"Sorry for what?"

"For making this a boring date…"

"….Akaya…"

"I don't know anything about you…"

"Akaya… it was the best day I've ever had…"

Akaya looked at Amaya…

"Really?"

Amaya nodded her head.

Akaya blushed.

"Amaya…I got something for you… it was a backup plan I made if I failed."

'A backup plan?"

Akaya stopped for a while to breathe.

"You see… I thought that this date was going to be a disaster so I decided to make a backup plan by giving you this…"

He then gave her a box wrapped in elegant paper.

Amaya opened it and to her surprise, it was a silver necklace with a small turtle attached to it.

"I love it!" Amaya said happily as she pounced on Akaya. She hugged him.

Akaya was shocked for a while. He then smiled and wrapped his arm around her. It was then that the Ferris wheel began to move again. The power was back on.

But they still didn't move from that position.

After the ride was over. It suddenly began to rain, Akaya brought Amaya back to her home and before leaving Amaya gave Akaya a small peck in the cheek.

"That's for making this a special night…"

Akaya blushed. Amaya closed the door behind her and Akaya walked back home.

As he walked up to the front door, it began to rain. What he then saw shocked him.

On the porch… soaked from the rain. But that person didn't care less. The person smiled at him… in a twisted sadistic sort of way.

Lightning struck, it was then that Akaya saw the face of the mysterious person. And it was no other than…

Fuji.
