Alright, there seems to be a lot of people asking for me to continue with the story here. So I guess what I'm going to do is go ahead and tell further in to the stories, like how Satoshi and Risa first went out. So, here we go with the first date, between Risa and Satoshi.
"Hey Satoshi. Do you have any plans for this Saturday?" Daisuke said as he walked in to the room he and Satoshi shared. Satoshi sat at the desk, finishing up his homework. He looked at Daisuke, pushing up his glasses.
"I haven't made any plans yet. Why, did you need something?" Satoshi closed his book, turning the chair to face Daisuke.
"Well, I kinda need a favor from you. You see, Riku and I have a date on Saturday. And Riku says that Risa's been kinda down lately. So we wanted to invite her along. But if it was three of us, Risa would feel like she was imposing on us. So we were wondering if you could come along to keep her company." Daisuke looked at Satoshi, his eyes almost pleading. Satoshi shook his head, smiling. It was just like Daisuke to worry about things like this. He sat there, pondering what to do for a moment till a thought passed through his head.
"Isn't this Saturday your one year anniversary with Riku? I thought you two would like to spend it alone together."
"Well, it is, but Riku thought this was more important and I agree with her." Daisuke rubbed his hand on the back of his head sheepishly.
"Well, if you and Riku are giving up your anniversary, it would be rude of me not to join you. So what exactly will we be doing?" Satoshi moved over to the window, looking out towards the Harada house. He had met with both the Harada's before, and it was true he knew Riku better than Risa, mainly because of the fact she was always coming over to spend time with Daisuke. But this made him a bit uneasy. He had never really been interested in girls before, seeing as most of his past few years had been spent either studying or trying to catch Dark. Because of this he had never really gotten the chance to talk to them. Thinking about it now, he realized that Risa was a very pretty girl. He wondered why he had never realized before. He looked over at Daisuke's pleading face and smiled.
"Sure, I'll go with you. I've got nothing else to do, and besides, it could be interesting."
"Thanks Satoshi, I really appreciate it!" Daisuke exclaimed. "I'm gonna go call Riku and tell her, ok?" He ran out of the room, heading towards the phone at the end of the hall.
A week later, Daisuke and Satoshi stood in front of the train station. Satoshi looked down at his watch, noticing the time.
"Just curious, but I thought girls normally showed up early for things like this. I never would have thought they'd show up over 30 minutes late."
Don't worry, they'll be here. I'm sure Risa's just taking a bit longer to get ready. She normally needs a while to prepare." Daisuke said, looking around anxiously. Satoshi look at his curiously, wondering why it was he seemed so nervous. He shrugged to himself and looked around the station.
"Oh, there they are!" Daisuke said. Satoshi looked over to where Daisuke was pointing. Riku was running towards them, her hand waving in the air.
"Sorry about that." she said, panting as she reached them. "Risa took forever to get ready."
"Don't you go and blame this on me. You're the one who only told me about this an hour before you expected me to be ready." Risa said as she caught her breath. She stood, smoothing out the white dress she was wearing. Satoshi looked at her, once again noticing just how pretty she was. Daisuke and Riku started walking towards the movie theater. Satoshi shook his head as he watched them.
"You know, we're ruining their anniversary by being here" Risa said, taking a step closer to Satoshi.
"I know. I tried to tell him that, but Daisuke gets stubborn sometimes when it comes to other people. When it comes to himself, he's a bit of a pushover."
"Well, if you want, we could ditch them. Let them go off and do their own thing."
"That's an idea. I think we should go ahead and do it then." Satoshi reached down and took Risa's hand, leading her back towards the train station. They ducked in to the crowd in front of the station, then headed along a side street towards the town square. Satoshi stopped in front of the fountain, looking around. "Good, I don't think they noticed us." Satoshi said.
"Um, Satoshi...Your hand..."Risa said shyly. Satoshi noticed he was still holding her hand and quickly let go, blushing.
"Um, sorry about that."
"It's fine." Risa said with a giggle. She looked around the square, then took a glance at Satoshi. She had always thought he was cute, but had never thought any more in to it. But now that they were here together, her mind was racing. He not only seemed cute now, but also cool. Her thoughts were interrupted by a cell phone ringing. Satoshi reached in to his pocket and pulled out his phone, flipping it open.
"Hello? Yeah, I know. We ditched you guys. We're not gonna bother the two of you on your anniversary." Satoshi paused for a moment. "You guys go enjoy your date. I'll make sure Risa gets home safely. See ya." Satoshi hung up the phone and looked at Risa.
"They noticed we ditched them, huh?" Risa said with a light laugh. She stretched her arms over her head. "Well, since we're here and dressed up, it would be a shame to waste the night, don't you think?" She looked over at Satoshi, smiling brightly.
"Y..Yeah. What do you want to do?" Satoshi asked, blushing slightly.
"I'm not sure. What do you say we wander around for a bit till we find out?"
Several hours later, Satoshi and Risa were heading back to the train station. Satoshi smiled lightly, thinking to himself as they walked. He had truly enjoyed this evening with Risa, and he was disappointed to see it end. He looked over at Risa and smiled again.
"Hey Risa...Do you think...Maybe we could do this again sometime?" Satoshi said, feeling shy for what he thought was probably the first time in his life.
"Satoshi, are you asking me out?" Risa said, a mischievous grin on her face.
"Well...Yeah, I am."
"Well, then I guess I'll just have to say yes. I really enjoyed tonight, so you'll have to make other dates as fun as today, ok?" Risa said, smiling.
"I can do that." Satoshi said. He smiled in surprise as Risa reached over to take his hand.
Sorry about the lack of updates on this. I kinda completely forgot about this second chapter I had written for this.
