Chapter 3: The Date


Friday. The day of the date I had with Mori that Amu set up for me... Once again, I was sure he wasn't the one. But why not go ahead and give him the chance? "Don't judge a book by its cover." Whoever said that was a genius.

I was getting ready for the date. I put on a green sun-dress with matching heels. Very, very tall heels.

Mori was incredibly tall... 6'2". I was only 5'3". So much to make up for there... (A/N: I made Rima a few inches taller because in this story, she's older... she HAD to grow some since sixth grade. XD)

I had my stereo cranked up to 10.

"Everything was everything, but baby, it's the last show. Everything could be everything, but it's time to say goodbye, so... get your last fix, and your last hit. Grab your old girl with her new tricks. Honey, yah. It's no surprise that I got lost. In your brown eyes."

It's a slow song... a very, very good slow song by Lady Gaga. I'm not much for slow songs, but this one I can do. Also, I'm very observant, and I noticed that Mori has brown eyes... so I figure this song suits the occasion very well.

Anyway, back to getting ready. I glanced at the clock on my stereo. 7:30 PM.

I had around 15 minutes to get ready. It didn't take that long to get to the restaurant, but I still wanted to have some time to just sit around...

When it came time to go, I grabbed my purse, checked my breath (Yes, I do this. Doesn't everyone?), and walked out the door.

*About half-way through the date*

"So... you're into Kendo?" I asked my date.

"Yeah. It's fun and a really good work-out. How do you think I got these abs?" Mori said, pointing to his stomach.

I laughed. I didn't realize how talkative, funny, and just plain awesome Mori was once you got him to open up. I also didn't notice how much he cared about his cousin, Hunny, which I found very, very sweet.

"I'm really enjoying this, surprisingly." I confessed.

"Oh, so you thought I'd be boring?" He assumed. "Yeah, first impressions of me are never good. I just have to get to know you before I can really show the true me."

"Not exactly. This was really a whole misunderstanding..." I trailed off, not wanting to offend him by explaining what had really took place between Amu and I.

"So I heard. Your friend Amu told me."

I perked up. "Really? She did?"

"Yeah... I also heard about how Tamaki was completely heart-broken because you dumped him."

I grimaced at the thought of what I did to Tamaki... that was pretty evil.

"Well, I don't think that's gonna happen with you." I smiled and, for some weird reason, started getting really nervous.

"It isn't?" He said with a laugh.

"No. At least I don't think I will be the one doing the dumping if it does happen." Maybe Mori was the one. Or maybe I was just falling for him, hard and fast, for some stupid reason. Maybe it meant nothing.

"Well I hope I won't, either." Mori said with a smile and blush. I really, really liked this guy.

He was very nice, genuinely funny, good-looking, strong, sweet, and all-in-all, amazing.

Everything.

We got up from the table after we finished the meal and payed.

He walked me back to my apartment, which was on the same block as the restaurant. When we got to my door and said our goodbyes, we hugged, and before I went inside, I told him something.

"I had a really nice time." I said with a smile.

"So did I... I'll call you tomorrow, mkay?"

"Great." And with that, I went into my apartment and thought about stuff...

Just a hug? Meh, I'll make it a point to kiss him on our next date. If I can get high enough on my tip-toes. And, I really hope there will be a next date, otherwise this will all be a wasted effort.

I really, really hope this works out between us. Mori is perfect. Well, not exactly. No one's perfect, but Mori is as close as it gets, to me.


Kala: Okay, sorry... maybe this chapter isn't as long as the previous one, but hey... the next one will be longer fer sure.

Mori: ... AWESOME!

Rima: Lulz. Do I kiss him in the next chapter?

Kala: [insert spoiler alert here] SPOILUR ALURTTTTTTTT! The answer to your question issssss... NOT TELLIN'! (:

Mori: Oh, c'mon. I wanna know, too.

Kala: Get over it.

Everyone: R&R!!
