Kenshin: She's gone nuts that she has.

Kaoru: hides behind Kenshin She is scaring me.

Kenshin: Sweat drops at Amori's odd actions She scares all, indeed she does.

Me: I can hear you, you know. Grins evilly Hmmmm…what torment should I inflict on you two in this chapter…hmmmmmmmmmmm….

Kenshin and Kaoru: Sweat drops and tries to run away but is electrocuted

Me: Stay on this side of the underground fence or get electrocuted until you step back to this side because the shock microchips that have been implanted in your bodies are programmed to shock you until you are within the boundaries. Grins very sadistically

Kenshin: ORO. She drives a VERY hard bargain indeed she does.

Kaoru: ORO. Falls over anime-style

Thank you all:

Rio-oki2007: I am glad you like it.

Anaii: LOL. Yeah. Avril ain't to good. But yeah…I know the others rock. b

Ruronichik13: Uh…I am doing the quadruple date thing in this chapter. You'll see the others there.

Angel of lonlyness: Okay. Wow. Uhhhh.

Previously:

"Hey! I have an idea! Lets all go on one big date and then at like 11:00 go our separate ways. It would be cool!" Ayomi said. Everyone nodded at the idea and it was settled.

And so the gumi split up for the day and everyone went their own ways. Each person waiting happily for New Years Eve.

Chapter 8

The Big Date Begins!

New Years Eve came fairly quick. The girls had done some serious shopping the night before. Hey they may be tomboys and sk8ter chicks but they were still girls and what girl can resist shopping for their New Years dates? Now it was around 6'Oclock and the girls were having a four-way computer IM while getting ready. The guys decided to pick the girls up separately at 9:00 and meet the others at the restaurant at 9:30.

(AN: For those that don't know what IM stands for it is Instant Messager.)

IM conversation:

(AN: Kaoru is SupaFlySk8terChick2005, Megumi is FoxyPunkMama2004, Misao is Fast'n'furiousFemaleButtKicker2005, and Ayomi is AssailentOfTheMoon2005. The numbers at the end are the year they all graduate high school. Megumi's is 2004 because this is her last year there. She graduates ahead of her class.)

SupaFlySk8terChick2005: Hey Meg? R U gonna wear that awesome punk skirt/top that you bought yesterday or that 1 red dress that you got at Misiora's?

FoxyPunkMama2004: I think Ill wear the punk 1. Not sure.

Fast'n'furiousFemaleButtKicker2005: Whadda bout U Kao? U gonna wear that blue 1 or black 1?

AssailantOfTheMoon2005: Yea! I like the black 1 best. It was 2cool.

SupaFlySk8terChick2005: I don't know guyz. I G2G. TTYL.

FoxyPunkMama2004: K. TTYL

Fast'n'FuriousFemaleButtKicker2005: Yeah. TTYL.

AssailantOfTheMoon2005: I g2g 2. ttyl all!

And with that they all logged off. The girls all scurried around their rooms getting ready for their big dates.

AT 9:00:

DING DONG!

Kaoru opened the door and gasped. There was Kenshin in a simple black button up Polo shirt with the top four buttons unbuttoned exposing his drop dead gorgeous chest with white jeans. HE LOOKED HOT. In his hands was a bouquet of blue roses. He smiled at her and looked her over.

He blinked. She was wearing a long black skirt with a slit up the side to mid-thigh and a black tank top with a red symbol for alchemy. She had on fingerless gloves that came to her wrist and velcroed shut and one big black leather band with spikes around her left wrist and on her right arm she wore a ton of little black and red rubber bracelets. Her hair was up in a high ponytail tied with a red ribbon and two of her green streaks framed her face. Around her neck she wore a simple silver chain with a guitar charm. He thought she looked like a goddess.

"Uhhhh…Kenshin? You're drooling on my carpet." Kaoru said trying not to laugh.

Kenshin snapped back to reality and quickly apologized. "I am sorry, Kaoru. Shall we get going? We don't want to keep the others."

Kaoru laughed out loud and grabbed her coat.

AT THE RESTAURANT

"Wow, Aoshi! The Akabeco! This is the coolest joint in all of Tokyo!" Misao chirped. She was wearing a green form-fitting dress that stopped right above her knees. The sleeves were just strips of clothe that she tied at the top of her shoulders into a halter-top.

Aoshi nodded. Indeed Kenshin had chosen a really nice place. All of the guys were wearing the same outfits except Aoshi's shirt was green and his pants were black. Sano's was a black shirt and his pants were red and Enishi's was a purple shirt with gray/silver pants.

Sano was "sweet talking" to Megumi who was wearing a red leather mini-skirt and a black halter-top with red chains printed across the front and Enishi was leaning against the wall listening to Ayomi's new song she wrote for the band as she sang it. She was wearing a purple corset with see-through sleeves. The front had eight chains dangling in two rows down it and she had a pair of silver leather pants with a loop-ring belt.

Kenshin just pulled up in his Porsche and they all went inside. A woman was standing at the podium in the entrance. She looked bored but cheered up when she saw Kenshin.

"Well if it ain't my favorite customer! Are you lookin' fer a table? Folla me!" The woman said with a southern accent. She was tall and had short brown hair and was pretty.

"Nice to see you too! Thanks, Tae!" Kenshin replied. They followed the woman to a long booth and everyone sat down next to their date.

"What can I get ya folks ta drink?" Tae asked steadying her pencil and notebook.

"I'll take a Root beer." Kenshin said.

"Give me a Pepsi." Sano said.

"I'll have a Dr. Pepper." Kaoru answered. (AN: YUM! I LOVE DR. PEPPER!)

"I'll take green tea." Aoshi said quietly.

"Diet Coke, please." Misao smiled.

"I'll have coffee, please." Megumi said.

"Regular tea for me, thank you." Ayomi chided.

"Same for me." Enishi agreed.

Tae nodded scribbling fast to get every thing down. She smiled and walked off to get the orders filled.

"Tsubame will be your waitress. She should be here shortly to take your orders. And don't hesitate to call if anything isn't to your liking. Ta ta!" Tae recited as she turned to wait on another table.

Well? Whaddya think? REVIEW PLEASE!
