If you chose Nagihiko…
"Amu-chan, who is he?" Nagihiko asked politely.
"I'd like to know who he is too!" Mateo said equally as polite.
"Erm.." I looked between the two of them nervously.
I could see the annoyance in Nagihiko's eyes.
Does it matter who I introduce first?
"Nagi, this is Nishkuri Mateo."
Mateo bowed to Nagihiko.
"Mateo, this is Fujisaki Nagihiko."
Now it was Nagihiko's turn to bow.
"Nice to meet you." Mateo said.
"The pleasure is mine."
"Were you here to pick Amu-chan up?"
"Yes," He walked over to me and put his arms around me. "We are going on a date today."
"E-Eh?"
"Doesn't she make the cutest reactions?" Nagi asked.
"Y-Yeah." Mateo looked pissed off.
"Well, I'll be taking her now. We can't be late for the reservations we made!" Nagihiko said with a polite tilt of his head. "I guess I'll see again."
"Yes, I guess you will." Mateo had a very gloomy frown on his face.
"Until then." I say and allow Nagihiko to lead me away from the estate.
He stops at a park and we sit on a bench in an area where there aren't many people around. This is when I realize I am crying.
"It's ok." Nagihiko says in a hushed tone, noticing that I realized that I was crying. "I'm here."
"I..I don't know what happened to me." I say wiping away some of the tears.
"Who is he?"
Choice A: Tell Him
Choice B: Sit there silently.
Choice A Outcome:
"He's a..friend. From Nemuro." I say steadily.
"I see. You two must've been close if you were so effected by him." Nagi held my hand.
It was trembling.
"We..we were."
"And?"
"He's my ex-boyfriend."
"I sort of guessed as much."
"Mhm.." I didn't know what else to say.
"Did he dump you?"
"Yes."
"I'm sorry."
"I am too."
"Do you still…"
"I don't know."
"We can stay here if you want."
"What?"
"I don't mind just staying here until you feel better." Nagi said and patted my head. "You can't dance well if you're not feeling good."
Oh. That was why.
Choice B Outcome:
I sat silently on the bench, avoiding his question.
What could I say? There was nothing to tell.
"Were you two close?" He put his hand over mine, stopping the trembling.
"Y-Yeah."
"Did he dump you?"
"That obvious?" I said with a weak laugh.
"I guessed from the pain in your eyes."
I gave him a weak smile.
"Shall we stay here for awhile?"
"Hm?"
"Until you feel better." He looked up at the sky. "You can't dance with that attitude."
Oh. That was all it was.
Continuation:
"No, I'm fine now." The tears had stopped.
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah. Practice is important, isn't it?"
"Yeah, I guess." He gave me a concerned look. "But if you're not feeling up to practice, that's important too."
"Nagi.."
Nagihiko grinned at me.
"So please smile again soon, ok?"
"I will!" I said, determined to please Nagihiko.
"Good girl, shall we go then?"
"Yes!" I smiled up at him and took his hand.
"Let's work hard together!"
With a new burst of energy, Nagihiko and I ran over to his dance studio. It was vigorous training as we danced different genres of dance techniques.
"Amu-chan, you have to relax."
"What?"
"Your movements are still stiff, but awkward in a graceful sort of way."
"You said that when you gave me that tour."
"I did, didn't I?"
"Hahaha..brings back memories."
"What kind of memories." Nagihiko was smirking as he was choosing the next song.
"Fun memories."
"Fun, eh?"
"Shut up!"
"Alright." He put in a cassette. "So, you seem to move well in ballet and hip hop."
"I like Tutting, that was fun."
"You're especially good at that."
"I'm surprised about how flexible you are!"
"I'm surprised how well you've learned."
"Thanks!"
"Hm, well I guess we should try the slower dances and move into things like the fox trot."
After three hours, Nagihiko said we were done.
"Good work!" Nagihiko ruffled my hair.
"I only did good because you're a good teacher."
"Uh huh. You've got a lot of talent."
"Haha, thank you."
"I think a reward is in order."
"Eh?"
He tilted my head up to his and kissed me.
"Eh?"
"That wasn't the reward." Nagihiko teased.
"Then what was that?"
"My reward."
"O-Oh."
"Mhmm."
I blushed, "So what's mine."
"You must be hungry since we skipped lunch. So I'll take you out."
"Really!"
"Anywhere you want!"
"Are you sure!"
"I just got my paycheck, so it's fine."
"But.."
"Come on, you worked hard."
"I guess."
"So shall we go?"
…
So after a half hour, our food arrived.
"I'm glad you're happy again."
"I'm over being gloomy over Mateo." I said truthfully.
"Do you want to talk about it?"
"It doesn't matter."
"I don't think you really want to talk about this."
"It's fine."
"…"
"I just want you to feel like you can tell me anything."
I smiled warmly at him, "Thank you."
"No problem, we're partners now!"
"Eh, Fujisaki! What are you doing here?"
"Noda-san?" Nagihiko looked up at Noda.
"Erm.." I sat awkwardly.
"I challenge you to a rematch on my next break!"
"What?" Nagihiko exclaimed.
"YES! I will not accept defeat!"
"Can't you see I'm on a date?"'
"Eh?" Noda looked at me for the first time. "Aren't you the girl from last time?"
Choice A: "Sorry, he's busy."
Choice B: "Please Nagi? I want to see you play again!"
Choice A Outcome:
"Sorry, he's busy." I said taking Nagihiko's hand in mine.
"Please?" Noda begged me.
"No."
"You heard her." Nagihiko chuckled.
"Please! I have to beat him!"
"No."
"You shouldn't beg like that in front of your customers."
Noda noticed that other people were staring.
"I'll let you have your rematch."
"Nagi!" I protested.
"Amu-chan, if I beat him again," Nagi looked directly at Noda. "He can never challenge me again."
"What?"
"Eh, Number Two-san."
"I WILL NOT LOSE!" Noda declared.
"Then we have a deal."
They shook hands and Noda left to attend to the other customers.
"Are you sure about this?"
"Yep, now he's really fired up."
Choice B outcome:
"Please Nagi? I want to see you play again!"
"But we're.."
"It's ok. There's always next time." I gave him a gentle smile.
"I guess, but we were really having fun."
"So will you let me have a rematch?"
"Fine!" Nagihiko looked tired already.
"YES!" Noda pumped the air in victory.
"On one condition."
"Eh?"
"If I beat you," Nagihiko looked directly at Noda. "You can't challenge me ever again."
"What?"
"That is the condition if you wish to have another rematch."
"Fine!" Noda said. "I won't lose!"
"Are you sure that's alright?" I said as we watched him leave.
"Yep, he'll try harder now." Nagihiko said.
Continuation:
"He's my best opponent."
"What?"
"He's a great player, but he lacks confidence."
"You must really care about Noda-san."
"He's my wingman. My first mate."
"That nice."
So Nagi is only doing this to help improve Noda.
"But what if he loses?"
"He won't."
"You'll let him win?"
"No."
"But he never seems able to beat you!"
"He will. If he's as good as I know he is, he will."
"…"
It was past seven o'clock when Nagihiko, Noda, and I headed to the nearest basketball court.
"So what are the rules?"
"The normal ones."
"Ah, so we're playing that game."
"Yep. One shoot knock out." Nagi smirked.
"I won't lose!" Noda smiled.
I sat on the bench as they started the game. They were already going hard head to head. Not one person would budge as the other got the ball. Neither of them had the ball longer than three seconds of dribbling. They ran back and forth for hours, both determined to win. People passing by were constantly stopping to watch the spectacle.
"They're so talented." One said.
"They could become the best one day."
That was certainly a possibility with the way they were playing now.
"I wonder who will win." The first one said.
"Miss," the second tapped me on the shoulder. "What are the rules of the game?"
"One shot wins it all."
"How long have they been at this?" he first one asked.
"Hours."
"They're amazing!"
"Which one are you dating?"
"Neither. I'm the long haired one's dance partner."
"That's a shame. He should ask you out."
"Such a sweet girl." The other agreed.
"Thank you."
They walked away.
Both of the boys looked like they were reaching their limits.
"Come on!" I cheered. "One of you shoot already!"
"I will!" Noda said.
"No way!" Nagihiko chuckled.
Noda stole the ball and shot it from half court.
"Come on!" Noda willed the ball forward.
Nagihiko jumped up to intervene with the ball but he missed by a millimeter. The ball sailed into the hoop.
"Noda-san wins!" I exclaimed.
"Congratulations!" Nagi says.
"You didn't let me win, did you?"
"No, you won fair and square."
"My first win against you!"
"Congrats.
"Sorry for ruining your date, Hinamori-san."
"It's ok."
"Shall I walk you home?" Nagi asked.
"Yes, I'd like that, but aren't you tired?"
"I am, but it's getting late."
"You can sleep on the bench for awhile if you need to."
"No, it's ok."
We to the estate hand in hand.
"Amu-chan..?"
"Hm?"
"Thanks for staying."
"You would do the same for me."
"I would."
"I had fun today, thank you for the lessons."
"You're a fast learner."
"Thanks."
"Sorry about the game taking so long."
"If you didn;t try your hardest, Noda would think tat you just gave him the win."
"Yeah.."
"Well, I'm here.."
"Stay a good girl." He kissed my forehead and left.
I walked inside and was surprised to see someone waiting for me in the entrance.
"Amu-chan.." Mateo smiled.
"M-Mateo.."
