Chapter 4: The first date
Night had finally fallen and the museum's occupants were finally up and about. Larry though was the only one with a purpose in mind. With a basket in his hand, hair all done and wearing his neatest work clothes walked to meet his date.
A few minutes later when he arrived there he was stunned because before him was an angel.
Kaze still had her hair up, her earrings, necklace, and rings, but her clothes were different. She wore a black and silver Chinese styled dress with short sleeves outlined in silver showing the many markings on her arms. The collar of it ending just under her chain and the dress part had cuts on the side for easy movement. On the dress was an intricate design of a dragon and lastly black shoes completed the look.
"Is it really that bad?" Kaze asked him, taking his stunned silence the wrong way.
"Wha-What? No! I was just stunned! I- mean you look very beautiful." Larry said to her after getting over the shock.
"Oh! Um-thank you." She replied back, embarrassment evident in her voice for thinking that. "So what's with the basket?" she asked a second later, falling into step with him.
"It's for our date." Was all he said when silence fell upon them.
They then arrived on the roof where he then took the lead and led her to a secluded area on the roof. When arriving kaze spotted a picnic blanket with a bunch of lit candles surrounding it giving it a soothing atmosphere. And the moon could be seen in the distance.
Sitting down she looked around her enjoying the peacefulness of the area. Hearing a shuffling noise she turned. Larry was taking out snacks and other things out of the basket. (In this they can eat, but it's not needed. That goes for all the museum's occupants.)
One of the things he took out was a small radio. Fiddling with it for a few minutes he found a station that had calm and slightly romantic music. Soon after they started drinking and some of the wine he bought and relaxed a little.
They talked. Nothing important but just normal everyday things. Small talk. And before they knew it there was only an hour left before sun up.
(Kaze's pov)
"Do you need help getting everything?" I asked politely, startling Larry who was focused on getting everything in the basket.
"No! It's alright. I got it." was his reply.
Not long afterward he led me back inside the museum. Walking in silence I felt nervous. Kagome always told me that things like this always ended with a kiss.
Was I ready for that?
Did I really want to be kissed?
I don't know. And I hate not knowing. So caught up in my thoughts I didn't notice that we'd stopped or that Larry said something.
Getting out of my daze I asked, "Can you repeat that?"
A repeated "Good morning" (or goodnight) escaped him before he leaned forward and kissed my cheek. He then left to finish his duties for the night leaving me with flushed cheeks. Lifting my hand, I settled it on my cheek feeling a small smile on my face.
Going into the room I quickly changed and just as I turned frozen( or statue like or whatever) I thought "That wasn't so bad."
