A/N: Hehe chapter seven…long pause…umm…yeah 7 it's the second part of the date in which I intend to torture the ever "loveable" Mitsuru. Also in this chapter is an amusement park that is close to my 'neck of the woods' and since it's the only one I know about I'm using it in the story even though it's in Ohio not Japan, so please don't be angered by me. The one thing I wonder about this thing is how long it's going to be…possibly 10 chapters, maybe more? Not positive but I'll worry about it later, right now I have to torture Mitsuru.

Disclaimer: Same as the 6th chapter.

Chapter Seven: The Date part 2

Mitsuru was mentally slapping the crap out of himself; he had forgotten that there were two parts to this damn date thing. "Alright then, what's the second half of this…" with a disgusted look on his face he asked, "date, buying more shoes?"

Mahiru shook her head, "Nope. Nothing like that, but I think that you might like this part."

"Does it have anything to do with killing you?"

"Is that all you think about? Just death and destruction?"

"Yeah pretty much, and getting stronger and finally beating the shit outta that damn fox." He balled up one of his fists to show emphasis on the beating part, but death and destruction and things along those lines weren't the only things he thought of. Sometimes, most of the time now, he found himself thinking about what she was doing; that was something that he most definitely didn't like.

The blonde's eyes just stared at him for a few moments before moving on with what she had been previously saying. "No, it doesn't involve killing me, but some of it does involve height and speed…"

"I'm not interested then," the tengu grumbled.

"Remember our deal? You're breaking it if you don't go." That being said he reluctantly followed her out of the mall and to a bus stop.

Nozomu had stood in the shadows of the doorway until he saw them leave the area; he then stepped out, a pale look on his face. 'Deal? Are you telling me that she blackmailed him? Her, Mahiru Shiraishi blackmailed Mitsuru…' He then started laughing, bracing himself against his knees and the wall behind him. True that wasn't at all like the Mahiru he knew, but for Mitsuru to give in; not only was it odd, it was fricking hysterical, the tough ass tengu…

Nozomu couldn't finish any of his thought processes, for every time he got to the fact that it was Mitsuru, his laughter increased to the point where he thought he might even pass out if vampires were truly able to pass out. "Get…a hold…hahaha… of yourself Nozomu. Ya gotta…hahahahaha… find out… where they're going." The vampire took a few deep breaths before he straightened up and silently followed the two.

"Where the hell are we going anyway?" the tengu asked showing clearly his annoyance at not being told. The only answer he got was a, "You'll see soon enough," followed by a few giggles. It wasn't the 'you'll see' that bothered him; it was the giggles which probably meant something totally girly which sent a shiver to his spine.

'No one ever defined what true fear is, but I'm sure that somewhere out there there's some plaque or something that says, 'True fear is pink and girly.' Now if only I knew where to look…'

"Oh, here we are Mitsuru!"

Looking up he saw what the bus had approached; it was an amusement park, Paramount's Kings Island to be specific. He did admit to himself that this wasn't a bad choice, even though he himself hadn't been there.

In a somewhat high pitched voice she asked him while tugging at his sleeve, "Isn't this exciting?"

"Umm...I guess so…" Mitsuru was shocked, were those the words that just came out of his mouth? They couldn't have been he never got excited about such trivial stuff as this, never; not even when one of his foster families told him he would get to go to preschool where he got to do fun stuff. 'Then again who would be excited?'

They stepped off of the bus in front of the park; screams from some of the larger rides could be heard faintly from where they were standing. "Let's go Mitsuru!" the Princess exclaimed rushing off, dragging a somewhat grumpy tengu along for the ride; both unaware of the blonde vampire that had been following them all day and was now staring wide-eyed at the place she had brought them to. He did have to admit, Mahiru did a good job at deciding where to go for dates.

Inside the park it looked ten times bigger than it did from outside. Mitsuru unaware of what he was doing stared at everything looking like a little kid. Mahiru's face broke into a large smile watching his reaction to everything, even though when he caught her smiling at him the look vanished and he lied about it not being that impressive.

"Oh come off it Mitsuru, how many times have you been to one of these places?" when she didn't get a reply Mahiru once again dragged Mitsuru in a direction of a white wooden structure; the path lined with rides such as antique cars, bumper cars, a large set of swings, and things of that nature.

"Forwards or backwards Suru?"

Ignoring the name 'Suru' he replied, "Is there a difference?" A shake of the head was the answer he got. "Alright then, backwards." The tengu then followed the girl who was bobbing up and down as she skipped to the line for the Backwards Racer.

"You're gonna love it Suru." She exclaimed, "And after this we can go on Flight of Fear, then Top Gun, then the Beast, and Son of Beast. Oh we gotta go on Drop Zone and Delirium and White Water Canyon and…" Mitsuru placed a hand firmly over her mouth.

"Do you ever shut up? Even the were-wolf doesn't talk this much, plus the ride is here now." He removed his hand and rolled his eyes as he got into the car followed by Mahiru.

Slowly, it pulled out of the loading area and creaked up a steep hill. "So, tell me why exactly is this called the Racer? It's slowly than all get out." As he was saying this the cars with the passengers facing the front also started its slow rise up the hill.

"You'll see." In that instant the cars went hurdling downwards on the tracks, and almost as soon as they had started, the cars went in separate directions on their tracks; still racing each other at top speed. Within a few minutes the two came off the ride, and surprisingly Mitsuru had liked the feeling of feeling the wind in his face without having to do anything but sit there.

"Is that why?"

"Yep, you like?"

"Yeah, it was…neat" 'What the hell? I'm talking to her like she's my best friend, I hate her…Maybe that's to strong of a word, dislike very much.'

Afterwards they went on a variety of different rides, so far their favorites had been Delirium and Flight of Fear; Delirium was like a pendulum that spun very slowly and Flight of Fear was a roller coaster inside a warehouse type of place where when it took off you had to have your head back since it went so fast when taking off.

Over by Delirium Mahiru got an idea that was some what on the mean side but she couldn't help but follow out her plan; she led Mitsuru over to a bridge over a ride called Congo Falls. They stood there for a few minutes, backs to the ride and from the corner of her eye she saw the boat that carried the riders reach the top of the U-shaped turn that came before the down-hill drop where any on the bridge would be soaked.

"Umm…Mitsuru I gotta go to the bathroom so will you wait right here and I'll be back soon."

"Whatever."

He watched as she jogged down the bridge and over to the girls bathrooms, but before she entered the bathroom she turned around and stared at him giggling. 'What the hell is so funny she has to stare and laugh?'

His answer came by a roaring sound, "Why that little-," his words were washed out by the cascade of water that surrounded him. Any smaller sized children on the bridge were knocked back several feet by the blast of water.

Mitsuru sloshed off the bridge looking like a drowned, aqua-colored rat over to Mahiru who was trying hard to conceal her laughter. "You really had to go to the bathroom didn't you ya damn girl."

Stomping off, Mahiru knew she had upset him and she chased after him. "Mitsuru! Mitsuru, I'm sorry; my friends did that to me to and I thought of it as a kind of a induction ceremony thingy and I passed it onto you." She tried desperately to explain, for fear the mood of the day might turn sour.

The day had been going good; she had been able to get Mitsuru just a little bit out of his shell which was a major accomplishment with him. But thanks to her rotten luck she went and spoiled the day with a stupid prank that she had had done on herself also, and started mentally kicking herself in the rear.

Mitsuru looked over at Mahiru who was now staring at the ground ready to burst into tears at any moment. The tengu felt a pang of guilt but didn't know what to say or do. He thought about saying sorry, but that was just a little to far, so was any bodily contact; a joke maybe?

He pondered over this while they silently walked through a quiet patch of the park. She sniffled a bit to keep her tears from over flowing.

'Great Mitsuru, just great ya made her cry.'

"Two muffins…" he finally spoke.

"Huh?"

"Two muffins were in an oven. One leaned over to the other and said, 'man it's hot in here.' The other yelled 'Ahhh! A talking muffin!'" his voice being as gentle as it knew how to be.

The girl stared at him for a few minutes before finally breaking down into laughter. "That was funny. I didn't know you knew any jokes Mitsuru, this is the first time we've been around each other and you have tried to kill me."

He turned a shade darker, but it wasn't noticeable in the last rays of the setting sun. "What's that supposed ta mean?" he defended.

"It's nice to be together without any fighting."

The sun had completely set now and the teen boy was, to put it, was glowing like a red light bulb. Somebody enjoyed being with him; he didn't admit it but he liked being with her as well. One day he'd tell her but not now. 'Sooner than later.' said the side of his mind that he would rather block out.

"Ooh Mitsuru look at the fireworks!" Mahiru gasped as they exploded over head. "Aren't they pretty?"

"Yeah," he whispered, it was one of the most awkward moments of his damn life. "Don't you think we should head back before they send the Calvary of the wolf and the vampire with a frying pan."

"What's his deal with that thing anyway?"

"HIIK"

"Huh? HIIK?"

"Hell if I know, all I know is that that frying pan is like his most favorite thing in the world."

'If only they knew…I'M STANDING TEN FEET BEHIND THEM!" the above mentioned vampire yelled in the free space of his mind.

The fireworks had ended and the park closed. Mitsuru and Mahiru hailed a taxi to take them back to the bar. He noticed something was wrong when they got there and Mahiru didn't budge.

'She must be worn out from the long day a fell asleep. Shit she fell asleep, that means I've gotta carry her inside and if they're there…Dammit!' Reluctantly and carefully he picked up the sleeping princess and carried her inside.

"Hello Mitsuru, you're home early…and I see you've brought the Princess back as well."

'Dammit…Misoka.'
