Chapter Five: A Date with the king!
"Tell Ore-sama about yourself that Ore-sama doesn't already know."
"I hate bananas."
That was what me and the king of Hyotei's first date was like. Oh- but I'm getting ahead of myself. Let me rewind slightly.
I ran outside, seeing Atobe stood behind the gates, wearing a white shirt which had the top button undone. "Good morning, Hikari-chan." He greeted me, having the 'I produce rainbows and sunshine' aura around him again.
"Good morning, Keigo-kun."
I had decided that for one day, I'd call him by his name, instead of 'Ahobe.' Don't ask why- I don't know why, it was a whim.
We got into the family car, the chauffeur- just like everyone else in my household, looked extremely happy that I was on a date.
WcDonalds was the same as I remembered, the same appetizing smell inside
Once we sat down, I smiled, although I thought my heart would jump out of my chest. Atobe smiled, silently mocking me- like usual.
"Tell Ore-sama something about yourself." He ordered. I looked a bit blankly at him.
"I hate bananas." I smiled, calming down. "Tell me something about yourself."
"Ore-sama has a dog named Beat."
We both smiled, the tension gone. Before long, we were sipping milkshakes, whilst laughing like lunatics. Even Atobe couldn't help but laugh at stories of Haru and me. Talking about family is funny. Maybe not for them, but for me it was.
Then Atobe said a story about himself and the regulars.
I would tell you it, but I've forgotten it. I'll try to remember, but for the moment- my mind's blank.
After we drank our coffee, I suggested that we should go to the arcade- which isn't known for being a high class place.
"What do we do here?" Atobe asked, looking confused. It was the first time I saw that Atobe wasn't sure of something- which I found as a surprise, since I have- and always will love arcades.
The arcade was colossal, a variety of machines left right and centre.
I had been to the arcade before, with Mizuki- but only once.
My favourite machine was the one at the entrance, the claw crane machine. For those who don't know, the machine is full of toys, and there's a claw shaped crane, which is used to try and get a toy out.
I walked up to the machine, smiling. Atobe followed behind me, although I think that he didn't really like the place. I put in the correct amount of money in, and tried to get a purple unicorn teddy.
I failed. Once again, I failed at the machine. Atobe grinned at me, once again- mocking my failure.
"Ore-sama will get the toy for you." Atobe announced, whilst still grinning like an idiot.
I smiled. "I need to use the ladies room, I will be back in a minute."
When I came back Atobe stood proudly, holding a purple unicorn teddy. To this day I'm not sure whether or not he got it out by himself, paid someone or bought the machine or something else. All I know is that Atobe Keigo loves to prove people wrong.
"Let's go. Ore-sama has something Ore-sama wants to show you."
We left, Atobe holding my hand as tightly as physically possible, like he thought I'd let go otherwise. Walking, side by side, I had no idea where we were going.
"W-where are you taking me?" I asked, slightly worried. Atobe grinned his usual fake grin, almost trying to reassure me that everything would be ok. I smiled, trying to trust him.
For the record, trusting Atobe is extremely hard- unless you're trusting that he'd win in a tennis match.
Walking. More walking. I have to admit, there was only a certain amount of walking my ballerina shoes could take. Even now, I hate walking- and have a valid reason for it.
It took a long while, until we stopped at a tall building. I'm not sure what it was exactly, but I think it was a gym.
Walking inside- yes, I know, there was way too walking involved. Anyway, we walked inside, Atobe still holding my hand, and got into an elevator. We went all the way to the top of the building until we were at the roof.
Yet again, Atobe impressed me.
The sunset was beautiful, especially from high up. I gripped my unicorn teddy with my arm that was in a cast, and still held on to Atobe's hand with my other arm.
Instead of saying anything, I decided to trust the saying 'Actions speak louder than words.'
He let go of my hand, and sat down on the stairs, smiling.
I reached down and kissed him on the forehead, smiling as I did so. "Thank you, today was really fun!"
"Ore-sama had fun too."
I have to admit, Atobe blushed. There's was a part of me that was screaming 'what are you doing!?'- Wait, that was probably my dignity. I have no idea where it is at the moment. The other part of me was screaming inside my head 'Look! His face looks red!'
That was a proud moment.
We sat there, watching the sunset looking like a typical couple. Smiling happily, me leaning on his shoulder.
I really don't know how that happened.
Well- it was my first date ever, so I'm not sure if it'd be considered normal or not. All that I know is that was really embarrassing- although, it was pretty amazing.
Atobe Keigo is a genius, but he's still my 'Ahobe.' Wait- let me just take a moment to think about that last sentence, and wonder what happened to my pride.
