Luck in Prosecution Chapter Two: Every Sexy Detail

If there is one thing one should know about Makoto Naegi, it is that he is not a flirt, or at least he was not, he got better over the course of the time I knew him, however. However, he was never the type to flirt. Many would say that this would be a good thing, I would have to agree. Makoto was never the type of person to be flirtatious. So you would imagine my surprise when two years ago he went and asked me out on a date in the most roundabout way possible.

I remember the day clearly, it was valentine's day in the year 20XV. I had just gone to college the year before and I was talking to Makoto online while he was continuing with high school classes. I remember the day well as A matter of fact because I was working on homework when Makoto called me that morning.

DINGDING DINGDING

BEEP.

"Good Morning, Makoto" I said through the phone

"Hi, my name is Makoto. Mind if I occupy some of your time?"

I chuckled at that, "Yes I know who you are Makoto, We have talked every day for the last two years."

"I heard you Like Bad Boys, Well let me tell you I am Bad at everything… Wait a moment, why is that a line here?"

It was at that moment I realized what was going on, He was trying to use pick-up lines off the internet.

"Wait for a second, Makoto, who has a phone to your face right now?" I asked, "Is it, Suzuki? Why are you taking tips from her?"

"No, it is West."

"WAIT FOR A SECOND HERE!"

(Back to the present)

"Who is West?" asked Sayaka, "I was around during those years and I never met anyone named West."

"Oh West transferred in from the U.S. to study in Japan, He is a good kid although he doesn't know women all too well, mainly because he is gay, but he means well most of the time and really just wants to have a good time with his friends." said Makoto, "He is also responsible for the hoodie."

"And it is a damn good hoodie brother!" said Mondo

"Anyhow"

(Back to the story)

"I thought I told him that doesn't work on women." said Sae, "I know that he meant well but if he really wanted to impress me he would have done it himself."

"I thought you said he was gay?"

"Yha he was not the one who wanted to do it."

"Why's that?"

"He is gay."

"That makes much more sense then." I said before a sudden realization dawned on me, "Wait a second who put you up to this then? You are not the type of man to look up cheesy pickup lines and stuff like that so who put you up to this?"

I could tell that Makoto was hesitating on his end of the phone, who was it that put him up to this?

"I did."

"What?"

"Look, I have been trying to figure out how to say this for a whole year, and I am just gonna come out and say it. I have fallen for you, Hard. Now I know somebody as fantastic as you would not want to go out with somebody as ordinary as me but I Have fallen for you. I just never found the words to express it… I guess I did just now, didn't I? Sae? Are you ok? You are awfully quiet." said Makoto

Damn it, why did you have to be so cute when you said that back then?

"W-What? You are… in love with me?" I asked

"Y-Yes… I am in love with you. I am in love with your looks, your smarts, your personality. I love it all, but if I had to get more specific I love your passion in everything you do. I Love your eyes as they sparkle in the sunlight and the moonlight, I love every little thing about you. And I want to go out with you." said Makoto, "I know that I might not be your type but, I just had to say it. Would you like to go on a date with me?"

THUNK

"Sae? SAE!? SAE!"

I did not know how long I was out but when I came too… Makoto was there. My head was in his lap and he had attended to me the whole time. I did not know how long it had been since I last saw him. His eyes stared into mine with a type of care that I saw in him a long time ago, it was all so Hypnotic.

"Makoto? Why are you here? I thought you were at school." I said

"I ditched it, I wanted to make sure you were ok, falls like that are not ok for anybody." said Makoto, "It has been hours. Besides I wanted to come over today anyway, that fall just accelerated my plans."

"Makoto." I turned my head slightly at that and looked out into the city, the sun was falling into the horizon, "Is everything you said earlier true? About me? About your feelings for me?"

"Yes Sae, it is all true." said Makoto, "I wanted to tell you sooner, I just never knew how."

I stayed silent thinking about it for a second… I understood that he was honest the first time he let out his emotions, he was honest the second time as well. What I could not understand back then was my own feelings, I knew that I wanted to love and wanted to be loved, but I also wanted to support my family then, I wanted to give my sister a life that she could be happy about… that I never cared about myself… and Makoto was the one that really gave me that back then, at that moment I felt like I was about to explode with emotions. So I only did one thing that I could have done.

"Makoto?"

Makoto looked down at me at that moment as he was about to ask me a question. Neither of us knew what he was about to say at that moment, but we knew what I did at that moment. I reached up to his face… and kissed him. It was like that for what close to be an hour and by the time we stopped, we were gasping for air.

"I want to take that as a yes," said Makoto

"It is," I chuckled, "Makoto Neagi, do you want to go out with me on Sunday?"

"Sae Niijima, I do not want to go out on Sunday, Because I had a date reserved for today," said Makoto

"Then it is a date."

And that was, it was nothing fantastic, just a simple restaurant that sold simply delicious food… but it was enough for us then, in fact we planned to go to the exact same restaurant this year too. Everything was perfect then, still is now, but we just sat there talking back then without a care in the world, now we would have had to talk about our jobs or our problems or everything that is on our minds. We went home that night, not for sex because Makoto was not prepaired for that, but for ourselves and to rest that night, our spirits happy and our hearts a flutter with our embrace. We split off at the station. Makoto went back to our hometown as I went home… Happier than I was when I went off to my first class at college only a year or two earlier.
