"Is this too slutty?" Shai asked as she turned in the mirror. Airi peeked out of her bathroom where she was doing her makeup and shrugged.

"Depends what your goals are for tonight boo."

Shai pursed her lips and lifted her arms up.

"Ehh. I'm not gonna worry about it. I'll just wear your cardigan or something. It's kinda cold outside anyway."

Airi rubbed her lips together spreading her tinted lipgloss. It was her favorite flavor and she hoped Hiro would like it. If he even kissed her. Her lips formed into a pout and she grabbed her perfume spraying her wrist and neck.

"Oh, me next." Shai said suddenly next to her. She grabbed the bottle and lifted up her long hair. "What time did you tell Hiro we would meet him?"

"8." She replied pushing up her curls so they looked fresher. She pressed the home button on her phone and it showed that it was 7:50. "We should get going."

She walked back into her room and grabbed her keys.

"Please don't embarrass me." She begged.

"You don't need my help for that mami. You already busted your ass in front of him."

They walked out the front door and made there way to the corner where the cafe was. They walked through the door and Cass was wiping off some tables. The sound of the bell made her turn, a huge smile on her face.

"Oh hi girls! Airi it's nice to see you again. And you must be Shai."

"Yes ma'am." She said smiling.

"Hiro should be coming down in a second." She said. "So what high school do you guys go to?"

"West Bay High." Shai said.

"Oh that's where Hiro went."

"Please tell me you haven't told them anything embarrassing." Hiro said as he walked towards them.

"They just got here. I didn't even have time to whip out the baby pictures."

"Pity." Airi said. "I bet you were a cute baby."

"Oh he was! Wait. I think I have one over by my purse."

"Ok I think it's time to go." He said sliding his hand into Airi's. He laced their fingers together and a stupid smile grew on her face. "Bye Aunt Cass!"

He quickly pulled the teen out of the café, her friend saying bye to Cass before following.

"So am I gonna be third wheeling the whole night?" Shai asked teasing. Hiro blushed realizing that he was still holding Airi's hand.

"Sorry." He said pulling his hand away. Her pretty lips turned into a pout and he quickly grabbed it again. "My bad. I didn't think you wanted to-."

He was cut off when she squeezed his hand smiling at him brightly.

"Relax dude." She said. Hiro took a deep breath and smiled. It was ok. He was just going to a high school party. He had been to college parties. Of course he had never gone with a girl other than GoGo and Honey Lemon, and they were just friends. For some reason, Airi seemed to actually like him. They walked for a while chatting about random things like music and tv shows. Eventually they came up to a house where a few teens were standing around and he could hear music coming from the inside. They walked up the front steps and entered the party. Lights were flashing around and there were giggling girls, scouting guys, and red solo cups everywhere.

"I'm gonna go get a drink." Shai said. "You wanna come?" She asked Hiro, her eyebrow raised.

"Uhh, I guess." He looked at Airi who shrugged.

"I don't drink. I'm gonna go try and find some food though."

"Get me some." Shai said heading one way while Airi went another. Hiro watched Airi disappear into the crowd before going after Shai. Soon, he had a weird concoction in his hand. He had had alcohol before but it was never anything other than a little lite beer Fred gave him. This was certainly not light beer. He took a swig and it burned down his throat. A least whatever else was in it made it a little sweet.

"Let's go find your girlfriend." Shai said. He nodded his head and she smirked. They walked out to the living room and saw Airi in the corner talking to a guy leaning up against the wall. She was talking to him animatedly, her hands moving around rapidly, but he was just staring at her, nodding his head and biting his lip. Hiro and Shai pushed their way across the room towards her, but before they reached her the guy pulled her in by her waist and leaned down to kiss her.

"Hey!" Hiro called out as she turned her head away. She pushed against the guys chest and he let go confused.

"What the fuck?"

"Don't touch her." Hiro said glowering at the taller boy. Although he had grown his 5'6 couldn't match this guys height.

"Who's this pipsqueak?" He said sizing up Hiro.

"Fuck off Jay." Shai said. The Latina started to roast the boy and Hiro was kinda scared. He noted to never get on Shai's bad side. Airi's placed one hand at the small of his back and tugged on his shirt with the other. He looked down at her and she craned her neck to reach his ear.

"Thanks."

"No problem." He said with a smile.

"C'mon guys." Shai said grabbing Airi's elbow. She unhooked herself from Hiro and grabbed his hand.

"Let's dance." She said as they entered the next room. Hiro blushed as he realized that everyone in the room was grinding on each other. He watched Shai down her drink and grab a random guy that was just observing in the corner.

"Yeah ok." It seemed like the guys weren't really doing any work so he figured he could handle it. He finished off his drink and she pulled him to the center and then twirled herself under his arm so that her back was facing him. He hesitantly placed his hands on her waist as she moved to the music. It was really warm in the room all of a sudden and he felt strangely giddy. He tightened his grip on her hips and pulled her so that her butt made contact with his crotch. She danced to the rest of the song and turned around when it was over, Hiro's hands sliding around her waist. She hooked her arms around his neck and grinned big, dimples showing. A giggle escaped her mouth and she cupped his cheeks in her hands.

"You're drunk." She said taking in his flushed cheeks.

"Drunk on you." He said before he could stop it. He might have regretted it but Airi's laughter rang out her head tilting back.

"So you're a romantic drunk and a lightweight."

Hiro didn't know if he should be offended, but the way that she was looking at him made him not want to stop whatever he was doing.

"You're really pretty." He said reaching up to brush her hair back. The golden hairs that curled with the natural dark brown underneath showed and he smirked. A new thing every time.

"Ok genius lets get out of here before you hurt yourself."

She grabbed his hand and tugged him out, tapping Shai and whispering something to her on the way to the front door.

"Where are we going?" Hiro asked confused.

"I don't know. You want ice cream or something?"

The cool air blew through his hair and he smiled.

"But it's cold."

"Doesn't make it taste any less good."

They walked down the sidewalk hand in hand as other people rushed past them.

"Aunt Cass thinks that I'm weird for craving ice cream when it's cold." He said.

"My dad thinks I'm weird for craving hot chocolate when it's hot."

"I guess were just weirdos together."

"Better then being weirdos apart."

The ice cream place was barren except for the guy behind the stand reading a magazine.

"Can I have a double scoop chocolate fudge brownie?" Airi said. The guy looked up and sighed before making her cup.

"I'll just have vanilla with gummy bears." Hiro said. He took out his wallet and Airi grabbed his hand.

"You don't have too-."

"Bot fighter remember? I got this."

He paid for the ice cream and they started to walk back towards there homes.

"That's a lot of chocolate." Hiro said.

"At least it doesn't have gummy bears."

"You don't like gummy bears?"

"No, I do. I just don't like them in my ice cream. To chewy. But you can never go wrong with chocolate."

Hiro stopped walking and Airi turned confused.

"What's wrong?"

"You know when we were at the party and I said you were pretty?"

She smiled and looked down bashfully.

"Yeah."

"I didn't say it because of the alcohol. You are really pretty Airi."

"Thanks Hiro. You're pretty cute too."

"Thanks for noticing." He said grinning. Airi laughed covering her face with her free hand and Hiro pulled her closer.

"Hey! Watch the ice cream." She teased holding it up in the air.

"Can I have some?"

"No." She said shoving a spoonful in her mouth. She smiled at him but her face quickly changed when his lips pressed against hers. She gasped and his tongue found it's way inside her mouth. Airi grabbed his hair with her free hand and kissed him back before they pulled apart.

"You're right." He said panting. "Chocolate is good."
