The Next Morning

Pucca's POV.

I heard my alarm go off, of course I had to get up early.

Looking over I noticed it was 6:00 A.M.

Just maybe today won't be as bad as I thought, then again maybe it would be horrible. I jumped out of bed and started to get ready.

By the time I was done, it was about 6:40.

End Of Pucca's POV.

Pucca started to head towards the training center. When she arrived, Abyo was talking to Garu in the staff room but when he spotted her the talking seized. "Hey Pucca!" called out Abyo. "Hi." replied Pucca putting her purse down by a near by table.

"Where's Ching?" asked Pucca. "Um. I have no idea." admitted Abyo. "Oh." sighed Pucca. "I'll leave you two alone..." teased Abyo leaving the room.

"So..." started Pucca. "You took the job? I thought you hated me." added Garu.

"I don't hate you it's just...I don't know it's hard to explain..." she yawned a little, ".your in red and black again?"

"Yeah, I guess the others didn't work for me." chuckled Garu. "Well, I like red and black on you. It's like your old self." added Pucca.

"Really?" asked Garu looking over at her. "Yep. Of course I bet you still date 10 women at a time still. All you need to do is change that and your back to normal." giggled Pucca.

"What do you mean? I haven't dated anyone since that night I said I love you. I've been focusing on training." he replied in a serious tone of voice. "No dates what so ever, wow I'm dreaming." teased Pucca.

"I'm dead serious." chuckled Garu.

"Alright then, I assume your a changed man. I mean your back to your old self again." she added along with his statement.

"I guess." assured Garu.

After The Class

"Your really good with kids." admired Pucca. "I've never really trained them before." laughed Garu.

"It looks like you've been training them for years..." Pucca smiled at him then looked away, "..Garu I have a question for you."

"Yes?" he looked back at her. "Do you still love me?" she asked.

"More than I ever did." Garu walked up to her closely, "Why do you ask that?"

"Because I love you too, I'm just trying to avoid it." Pucca replied.

"Avoid what?" asked Garu. Pucca looked up at him with a sad smile.

"You hurting me again."

"Pucca I would never hurt you." he pulled her slowly into a kiss, and Pucca made it deeper when she pulled him in closer towards her.

Ching and Abyo came in, and shortly walked out seconds later after noticing the two completely unaware of them in the room.

Garu and Pucca heard a door shut, and stopped.

"Would you like to uh..maybe.." Garu stopped as Pucca interrupted him. "Are you asking me on a date?" she smirked.

"Yes, would you like to go out to dinner with me tomorrow night?" he asked nervously.

Pucca blushed and let out a small giggle, "I'd love too."
