If you chose Tadase…

I turned to Tadase on impulse.

"Me?" He asked confused.

"I don't know how much help I can be, but I really would like to help you."

"Thank you so much, Hinamori-san!" Tadase smiled at me and took my hands in his. "You'll be doing more than enough!"

"You chose the kiddy king?" Ikuto pouted in disappointment.

"Don't call me that!" Tadase grumbled.

"Why not?" He smirked. "You act all high and mighty, but the size of a kid."

"That's mean!" I retorted.

"That's the point." He replied evenly.

"Save your breath, Hinamori-san."

"So what will I be helping you with?"

"Well..first..would you like to go for a walk?"

"A walk?"

"Yeah, I think it's better if I just tell you when we're alone."

Choice A: "Sure."

Choice B: "No, can't we stay here?"

Choice A Outcome:

"Sure.." I say and let him lead out of the bar.

"You two be careful!" Aruto said with a worried look on his face.

"Don't stray too far." Tsukasa cautioned.

"Will do." I replied.

"If you're trying to get a move on her why don't you just say so?" Ikuto teased.

"Let's go." I said, not wanting to hear anymore of Ikuto's teasing.

Choice B Outcome:

"No, can't we stay here?" I asked.

"I.." Tadase was a lost of words.

"That is a little curious." Ikuto smirked.

Tadase's face turned red, "It's not like that!"

"And what do you mean by that?" Ikuto had a devilish grin now.

"Leave him alone." Kukai complained.

"You guys do this everyday!" Nagihiko groaned.

"You're making poor Amu-chan suffer." Aruto agreed.

"Please, Amu-chan?"

I didn't want Tadase to go through anymore ridicule so I reluctantly agreed.

Continuation:

"I couldn't tell you in there because they don't even know what you're going to help me with yet."

"Really?"

"Yeah, I didn't want to tell them. But I know what the rest of them needed help with."

"Why wouldn't you tell them?"

"They're my closest friends, Hinamori-san. But.." He looked troubled. "This was something I was too embarrassed to admit."

It was kinda of cute to see Tadase like this.

"So what is it you need me to do?"

"I.." He fumbled with his words again. "This is gonna sound insane."

"Insane?" I repeated.

"I..I need you to be my girlfriend."

"W..What?"

"I know, crazy right?" He blushed at my reaction.

"It is kind of sudden.."

"OH! No, no. Not a serious girlfriend. Just a pretend one."

"A pretend girlfriend?"

"Yes."

"Why?"

"Well, why don't we go to the park and find a good place to sit."

"Sure."

The walk to the park was roughly four minutes and it was very tense. I could tell Tadase was very embarrassed for asking me to do that, but he also looked like he was doubting himself. I bumped his arm and tried to cheer him up. We arrived at the almost empty park and he led up a grassy hill. The hill overlooked the whole park and had one lone tree at the top with a bench. We sat down and took a breather.

"SO.." I said breaking the silence.

"I guess I should begin telling you, now shouldn't I?" He said.

"It would be nice."

"Ok.."

We sat in a little silence for a few more minutes and he finally began his story.

"My parents are really old fashioned and I haven't exactly been very lucky in the dating area.."

"That's hard to believe."

"Why?" He asked confused.

"N-Nothing.." I blushed. "Just continue."

"Ok?" He shook his head and continued. "So my mom insisted on me having an arranged marriage and taking over my dad's business."

"Why didn't you refuse?"

"It's hard to refuse her. She's very direct and fast paced. You can be swept away by her."

"I see."

"She wants me to marry a stranger. A complete stranger! We can't even meet until the marriage itself."

"Now that is the part where things get insane." I said baffled. "How could you marry someone like that?"

"That's my point." He groaned. "I want to get married and have a life beyond my own, but I'd like to be in love first."

"Haven't you been in love before?"

"Yes, twice actually. But they never worked out."

"I'm sorry."

"See why I couldn't tell you in front of the guys?" He crossed his arms in front of him. "They always tease my sensitive side. Or girly side."

"It's not that girly."

"But my face sure is." Tadase laughed.

"No, your face is perfectly fine."

"If you say so." He pouted. "I really want to go out of Japan."

"To be an international educator, right?"

"Yeah. I'd like to see the stars from New York City or Italy."

"That sounds like a lot of fun!"

"It will be."

"So how long will I have to pretend?"

"You mean you'll do it?"

"Why not?" I asked. "It'll be fun."

"Thank you!" Tadase immediately hugged me.

"When will I have to play the part?"

"Uhm, in two days?"

"Two days?"

"Yeah.."

"….."

Choice A: "We should learn about each other then."

Choice B: "That's not a lot of time to become a 'couple'…"

Choice A Outcome:

"We should learn about each other then." I suggested.

"Yeah, I bet my mother will be drilling you with questions."

"What is she like?"

"She's getting old, but still strong as a horse. Very straight forward and hates liars."

"She'll hate me for sure then!"

"Why?"

"Because I'll be lying to her from day one." I smirked.

"I know..but it's important."

"Ok, what is your dad like?"

"He's very fatherly and well mannered."

"Well, I'll at least try to wow him."

"That won't be very hard."

"What do they like to see in guests?"

"They like it when they greet everyone and actually try to converse with them."

"That shouldn't be too hard."

"They don't like sassy replies and they aren't very fond of the Tsukiyomi family."

"Why?"

"Well, at least my mom and I'm not really sure." He sighed. "I'm not very fond of Ikuto-san, but he's like my Onii-chan."

"That's understandable." I pondered for a moment. "You guys are the ideal brothers."

Tadase laughed, "I suppose you're right."

Choice B Outcome:

"That's not a lot of time to become a 'couple'.."

"Become?"

"Well, we have to be very comfortable with each other the way a real couple would, right?"

"Yes, that's right."

"So we may have to kiss as well and hold hands.."

"That isn't too big of a deal."

"I guess..but two days to get used to all of that…."

"Not to mention learning about each other."

"That too, but we can do it!" I said determined.

"We'll work hard together!" Tadase agreed.

Continuation:

"So..how did we meet?"

"What?"

"I mean your mother is gonna assume we've been seeing each other for awhile now."

"That's true."

"So how did we meet, how long have we been dating?"

"Two months."

"Uhm..we met at the school. You gave me a tour.."

"That makes it the partial truth."

"Yeah, that'll ease my conscience a little."

"Mine too."

"Ok, so you gave me a tour and we just hit it off from there."

"Alright!"

"What if your mother thinks we're not in love?"

"We'll have to use some real good acting skills then."

"Why not a date?"

"A date?"

"What better way to become a couple?"

"That's a great idea!" He grinned. "I'll plan it!"

"What's your favorite food?"

"Hmm…I guess I really love purin."

"Ok, well I love chocolate taiyaki!"

"Ikuto-san has the same favorite. Well he loves chocolate in general!"

"Good to know.." What else did a couple have to know about each other?

"Favorite band?" He asked.

"LM.C."

"I love SCANDAL."

"They're fantasic!" I squealed. "My favorite song by them is Harukaze!"

"One of my top five." Tadase grinned more.

"How about sports?"

"I like baseball."

"I'm a typical volleyball loving girl." I smile sheepishly.

"That's kind of cute, ya know?"

"Hm..any special skills?"

"I'm pretty good at persuading people."

"That isn't hard to believe!"

"What about you?"

"I'm good at learning." I said with a shrug. "I'm a decent cook and good with little kids."

"Those are qualities that are needed later in life."

"You sound like a teacher already!"

"Is that a bad thing?"

"No, not at all."

"Wow..it's already 1AM.."

"You're joking." I laughed.

We looked at the city and finally realized how quiet it was.

Choice A: "Shall we go home?"

Choice B: "Why don't we stay a little longer."

Choice A Outcome:

"Shall we go home?"

"Sure!" He yawned and stretched.

"I'm sleepy too!" I giggled.

Tadase offered me his hand.

"Hm?"

"Couples hold hands right?"

"Yeah, that's right."

He waited for me to take his hand. I gently put mine in his and stood up. What surprised me was how nice it felt. Maybe I was imagining things..

"Are you alright?"

"Yes, yes I'm fine!"

We walked down the hill slowly since it was fairly steep.

"Wat-"

Tadase slipped on a mud puddle and pulled me down with him!

"Whoa!" I yelped as we tumbled down the hill.

Choice B Outcome:

"Why don't we stay a little longer?"

"I don't mind." Tadase replied. "I like being here. You have the best view of some real stars!"

I looked up at the sky.

"You're right." It was breath taking.

"I think every star represents a life lost."

"They'll live as long as the star."

"You've got a point, but that's still a long time."

"True."

We sat for awhile longer and Tadase proceeded to pointing out various stars.

"You really love astronomy, don't you?"

"I must sound like a complete nerd to you."

"But nerds are the new hot!"

"Is that so?"

"Yep!" I playfully punched him.

Tadase casually put his arm around me.

"Erm.."

"Couples do this, don't they?"

"Y-Yeah." Right. Just practice.

But how come my heart was getting excited?

"Are you ok?"

"Yes, I'm fine."

"It's getting pretty late, let's go home?"

"Sure."

Tadase took my hand in his and we started to walk down the steep hill. It was slippery and hard not to trip on it.

"Watc-"

Tadase had slipped on a muddy puddle and sent both of us tumbling down the hill!

"Whoa!" I yelped.

Continuation:

It wasn't a long descent, but it was rather painful.

"Are you alright?" I asked.

"Er..yeah."

I looked down and saw that I was on top of Tadase. My face was filling with heat.

"H-Hinamori-san?"

"I-I-I'M SORRY!" I yelped and hurriedly got off him.

"It's fine." He chuckled. "As long as you're ok."

"I'm fine!"

"Good." He ruffled my hair.

I blushed even harder, "What about you?"

"Eh, I'll have a bruise in the morning, no big deal."

"Are you sure?"

"It would be nice if someone would kiss it all better.." He teased.

"Where?" I asked playfully.

"Right here." He pointed to his shoulder.

Tadase was wearing a white sleeveless button up top with a collar neatly folded out with a pair of straight jeans and blue converse. His shoulder was bear and so I decided to play along and kiss it.

"…" Tadase was surprised at my actions.

"Hm?"

"Actually it hurts here too.." Tadase pointed to the middle of the curve to his neck.

I touched the spot with my fingers with light brushes.

"Here?"

"Y-Yeah." His face was slightly red.

"Ok." I kissed the spot lightly.

"Thanks."

"That's something any girlfriend would do."

"Right.." He ran a hand through his hair.

"…"

"Do…"

"Do..?"

"Do you hurt anywhere?" He was looking away from me as he said this.

I remembered our position in the planetarium. The kiss.

"My bottom lip. I bumped it on the way down."

"Let me have a look." Tadase had a serious expression on his face.

He kneeled in front of me and caressed my cheek with one hand as he traced my bottom lip with the other. My heart was racing as he examined my bottom lip. Then his gaze eased and he had a gentle smile again.

"Do I need to kiss it?"

"It would make it all better." I whispered.

This was ok, right? We were now in a fake relationship, Kissing would be necessary at some point, right? Right? Kissing Tadase again was not good for my heart, His kisses were so gentle and patient. I tried to be the same, but only succeeded in making him chuckle. Tadase hugged me close to him and kissed the top of head.

"Shall I walk you home?"

"Yes, please."

"So I'll pick you up at five o'clock tomorrow."

"It's a date." I smiled at him.

"Yes, a date." He repeated with a warm smile.

Tsukasa was waiting for me outside and Tadase awkwardly gave me a hug good bye.

"Good night." He said.

"Good night." I replied with a small smile.
