"I pinky promise..." I softly whispered. "I promise..."

Suddenly, my phone rang waking me up in a hurry. That night I must have fallen asleep on my phone waiting for Nagisa to call me saying he was better. I was aware that it was a cliche thing to do and that most likely he wasn't to call in the middle of the night. However, it kept me feeling happy and apparently it was a good thing. Otherwise, I don't think the ringing would have woken me up.

I flipped open my phone and muttered a "Hello..." trying not to sound as tried as I was. When a cheery voice on the other end greeted me, I threw my phone on the bed and squealed.

"Oh no!" I grabbed the phone. "Did you hear that?"

"No..." He said, although I could tell he heard me. "Are you awake?!"

"Yes, if I wasn't I wouldn't be talking to you."

"Good point!" Nagisa laughed. "I'll be there in 15 minutes! We're meeting Haru-chan and Mako-chan in town for breakfast!"

"Nagisa-kun! I-"

"See you then!" He sung and then hung up.

You can't do that to someone! My hair was a mess, I still had to brush my teeth, to change my clothes, and to shower! It was just like Nagisa to do that. Everything with him came at random in sudden bursts.

I decided there was no time to bathe, so I ran around my room comparing shirts and seeing which pants would match which shoes. Finally, I ended up with a nice light blue shirt, gray jeans, dark blue TOMS, and a navy vest. Since it was morning and we were walking around, I figured dressing causal was best. I had to look beautiful. I did look beautiful.

"Rei-chan~!" His voice echoed through the hallway.

"Nagisa-kun!" Quickly, I dashed out of my room and saw his pink eyes gazing up at me.

"Your door was unlocked so-"

"So you just invited yourself in?!" I took a deep breath and sighed. What else was I to expect? "Let's just go..."

"Wait!" Nagisa clapped and pointed behind me. "I wanna see your room!"

My foot hastily slid the door closed. "Nope! Nope! No."

"Please?"

"No."

"Fine!" He crossed his arms and let out a huff. "Meanie."


Haruka and Makoto were waiting, slightly irritated, in front of a little dress shop. Of course, Nagisa messed up the train schedule and so we arrived fairly late. Makoto still seemed as gentle and kind as ever, but Haruka had an emotion on his face other than boredom for the first time in forever. However, it was not the emotion I was hoping to see.

Honestly, I was a bit surprised when Nagisa mentioned meeting them for a double date. It didn't seem like they were gay, but I didn't even know I was until recently (or I've just hopped out of denial more recently).

"This is going to be a great double date!" Nagisa cheered as he grabbed my hand and pumped it up into the air.

"We are not on a date," Haruka, still annoyed, hissed at Nagisa.

"You two aren't together...?" I looked back at Makoto hoping his reaction would be a bit less deadly.

"Us?!" He laughed nervously and shoved his hands into his pockets. "What?! Nah... No! Nagisa just wanted us to tag along to get to know you a bit better."

"Okay," I still was super confused on the whole Mako-Haru deal, but for the moment I assumed that they were just friends.


The morning was delightful despite my arm being sore from Nagisa tugging me. We went to about a million stores. One was full of cool antiques and it was so beautiful, from what I can tell from the short time we were in there. Nagisa, being Nagisa, accidentally broke an old typewriter. He was trying to write his name, however it was jammed. Instead of just walking away, the little blond pressed every button there was causing the jam to get worse and a paper soaked in ink. Makoto had to soothe the clerk and I ended up paying a fee greater than any amount should be for just a typewriter jam.

After that problem, we went to a clothing store. Nagisa made me try on a thousand jackets and shirts and shoes, until he decided that I would look perfect in what was in the store across the street. I was tried of all the shopping, so I stopped him before he ran into a small toy shop, basically to force him to let us get breakfast.

Haruka's sound relief was overwhelming when he bit into a blueberry crepe. Makoto smiled at this and carefully ate his. Nagisa was scarfing down his strawberry chocolate one and sometimes stopped for a breath. No matter how many times I told him to slow his pace down, he just ignored me resulting in a crepe-free Nagisa in under five minutes. I had to personally defend mine from his massive stomach and grabby hands.

Makoto and Haruka where pretty couple-like for two people not in a relationship. They would both pick out the same things and blush putting it down or offering it to the other person. Makoto would tilt his head and chuckle when Haruka would stumble over something and Haruka would respond by quickly facing the other way. Also, I could have sworn I saw them holding hands by the end of the morning.

When it was time for me to return home, Makoto and Haruka parted ways at the train station and Nagisa rode back with me. He rested his head on my shoulder and babbled on about this cute puppy he saw in the pet shop. Once we were at my door he started to fumble with his hands and words.

"Are you okay, Nagisa-kun?"

"Y-yeah..." He looked down at his shoes. "I just..."

"Thank you," I said, smiling.

"Oh!" Nagisa lifted his head up, his mouth widen by his grin. "You're welcome! I'd like to do this again!"

"Me too," I kissed his forehead and went inside closing the door quickly behind me. Just in time, too. My whole face must had looked like I got the worst sunburn ever.

I stayed up that night trying to figure out what he was going to say to me. Why was he so nervous?
