Koala: Okayyyz. So this is one of the biggest chapters. Well, the most exciting thing happens. :3
Rima: ORLY?
Nagi: IS THIS WHEN I SHOW UP?!
Koala: SHHHH.
Mori: …
Koala: Has he gone back to being silent again?! T-T
Rima: Guess so… or maybe it's because you yelled 'shhhh'??
Koala: Makes sense. MKAYZ! Let's get this show on the road (excuse the cliché). I do not own Shugo Chara or Ouran HSHC (: Yet. Mwahaha. (kidding.. gert.)
Chapter 5: Amazed
So, Mori and I were going on our second date tomorrow. I remembered the kissing thing, and I will not forget.
"You're gunna what?!" Amu said when I told her about it. "I thought you weren't sure that he was the one?"
"Yeah, I wasn't sure... but can't I?" I argued back.
"Whatever. Like you said, I made that mistake with Tadase, I won't ever be able to get it back..." She trailed off.
Hah, I have to admit, the Tadase, well Tadagay, incident was hilarious.
I lul at him still. (For those of you who don't know, A.K.A. FAILURES AT LIFE, lul or lulz means laughter in another's expense... so say you fall down, and I say lulz. That's the correct usage. XD)
But, Amu was heartbroken. At least she moved on to bigger and better things, like Ikuto. They are kawaii desu.
*The Next Day, An Hour Before The Date*
This date, I'm dressing casual. Mori already knows what I normally look like without dressing up, so I figure, why not? Plus, I don't wunna get sand in my dressy clothes. We're going for a walk on the beach... I know that sounds oddly-romantic and hopelessly-cheesy, but that's my idea of a mahhveloush date.
Mori showed up a half-hour before the dayte so I could hear him play guitar... for real.
He played this song that he actually wrote himself. It sounded like a mix of "Dance Floor Anthem," "Summerboy," (which I found funny, considering it's summer) and some other song that I can't remember the name of. Anyway, he can play really good... he actually taught me some things that I will probably forget by tomorrow.
*30 Minutes Later*
"Second grade?! No wonder you're so good at guitar." I said in disbelief when Mori told me that he had been playing guitar for that long.
Then, about a third of the way through the date... I met someone. Okay, I didn't technically meet him, but I saw him. I guess it was a sign, because I'll never be the same, I don't think. From the moment he started walking towards us, I couldn't breathe properly. I had to know his name, I had to talk to him. But with Mori standing right beside me, holding my hand, I did't think that was possible.
"Hey, I'm gonna go to the bathroom, 'kay?" Mori said suddenly, as if he knew I needed to be alone with this guy. Obviously he didn't do this intentionally.
"Okay, I'll be here." I told him... I really wasn't sure where he was going to find a bathroom. I guess he could just go to one of the hotels that lined the coast.
As soon as he walked away, I started walking faster towards the guy. I just had this weird feeling that he was 'the one.' I guess it was a sign that I couldn't breathe, I couldn't take my eyes off of him from the moment I saw him. When I got up to him, I really didn't know what to say...
"Uhm, hi..." I said nervously, but with a smile. "I'm Rima. Mashiro." I nearly forgot my last name.
He held out his hand, his golden eyes looking into mine. I shook his hand as he let his long purple hair fall over his shoulder. "Nagihiko Fujisaki. My friends just call me Nagi." He said smiling back. Then Nagi motioned towards where Mori went. "Boyfriend?"
"I guess you could say that... this is just our second date." I explained with a laugh.
"So, Rima... nice name. Haha. That guy is pretty lucky." He said and I immediately got much more nervous. What'd he mean by that? Does he feel the same way? Did he see the same signs? All these questions in my head... I wasn't sure what to say next.
"Uh, yeah, I guess so." I said, clearly nervous. I scribbled down my number with a pen on a piece of paper that I always seem to have ready because I saw that Mori was walking back towards us. "Here," I told Nagi, putting the paper in his hand and closing it. "Call me."
"Who's this?" Mori asked when he joined us.
"Uh, a friend from grade school." I answered nonchalantly, then turned to Nagi. "Well, nice seeing you again."
He played along. "You, too." We then went our separate ways.
I hope he calls...
As the date progressed, Mori seemed more and more... nervous. I don't know why, though. He wasn't nervous on our first date. Maybe it was because of Nagi, did he just have that effect on everyone, or was it just because he might be 'the one'?
"So... that guy back there, just wondering, what's his name?" Mori asked me after a few minutes of silent walking.
"Oh, Nagihiko... Fujisaki." I told him.
"Cool story, bro." (A/N: ROfl. Best meme usage evar.)
"... What?"
"Oh, uh, I don't know. I uh, just came up with it? Oh yeah, I mean name... cool name, bro."
"Mori, what's wrong?" I was genuinely worried about him, but I guess it really was nothing.
"Nothing, it's nothing..."
The rest of the date was awkward.
When he walked me back to my apartment, we stopped at the front entrance, he didn't even bother to go up to my room with me. I had given up on the kiss. If that Nagihiko guy was truly 'the one,' I wasn't going to bother. So we hugged and I went up to my apartment.
I checked my phone for any messages, because I stupidly left it here, and sure enough... a call.
I listened to it. Freakishly, I automatically recognized the voice as Nagi's.
"Hey, Rima... just wanted to make sure you didn't give me a fake number. Haha... anyway, gimme a call back sometime."
I envied his un-nervous-ness.
Koala: KAWAII DESU.
Nagi: ... Finally, thar I is.
Rima: Aww. How cute. But wait... how am I going to get rid of Mori?
Mori: Get rid of me?! (_( )_)
Rima: ... *shields self and Nagi*
Nagi: ??
Mori: RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGE!
Koala: Once again, he flips out. Oh also you guys, you may have noticed I changed the name to Koala... well, someone who knew me as Kala gave me tha nickname because it supposedly sounds like Koala. x3
Rima: That's great...
Nagi: R&R!
