Ok, let's take a guess. Who do you think this date will go not so well? (me~!) yep I think so too, so let's just see how our couple will do. ^_^
"….Can't you walk a little closer to me?"
"No. I can't. Absolutely not," Rein could not stand this situation, not even a bit.
Shade sighed, "You're so weird. At one moment you seem like you are enjoying this whole date and now you suddenly shy away from me like an innocent girl."
Annoyed, Rein replied sarcastically, "Yeah, yeah I'm such a bipolar so what!"
Shade found her answer interesting as he intriguingly looked at the girl, "Or did you only just notice that this was date?" Rein just embarrassingly looked at the ground as she reminisced a few minutes ago.
Rein looked at her surroundings in sheer excitement as she exclaimed, "This is so cool!"
Shade smiled at the girl's cheerful expression as he explained, "The Shopping Street is actually famous for its variety of shops and amusement."
Not hearing the explanation, rein urgently tugged Shade to an ice cream shop, "Hey Shade, let's go to this shop first!"
"The first shop you go is an ice cream place?"
Rein noticed Shade looking at her with a weird expression and answered, "What got any problem?"
Shade feigned innocence as he shrugged, "No, but you look like this certain person."
"Well if you are talking about Fine then she will go to a meat restaurant rather than an ice cream shop. I know her favorites."
Defeated by the persistent demand, Shade finally gave in, "Whatever you say."
Rein ran up to the cashier as she asked the employee, "Excuse me; can I have the Strawberry cheesecake ice cream?"
The ice cream was in a mellow cream colored with tiny red streaks. As Rein got her wonderfully delicious of ice cream, she looked at Shade and asked, "You're not going to have one?"
"I don't particularly like ice cream."
"Why not? It's the most delicious thing in the world!" Even while eating the ice cream, Rein's appetite still craved for the sweet taste as she licked more of the dripping liquid.
"It's cold plus the after feeling of being fat is just not worth it."
"…You know, you sometimes act like a teenage girl going on a diet," Rein didn't like to think the down side, once she started thinking like that, it had no end.
Shade suddenly looked at the girl's stomach as he said, "Rather you should watch out. You never know how much that thing will make you get fat."
The statement annoyed the princess, but held her anger as she tried to reconcile with the man, "If you're so worried about me becoming fat, then why don't you help me finish this up?"
Shade blinked in surprise by the sudden unexpected offer, "Huh?"
Rein soon realized her mistake as she tried to amend her statement, "Uh…wait. I made a mistake…"
"Alright, I'll help you finish this up," Shade immediately agreed to the offer as he touched Rein's hand that was holding the ice cream cone.
The girl's cheek immediately turned into a beautiful shade of red as she just watched Shade have a taste of the ice cream with his tongue, "W-wait, Shade!" The perfectly shaped tongue met with the soft mixture as he licked the ice cream.
"…It still tastes sweet, but I guess it's not that bad. Let me try some more," Shade leaned towards Rein as he went for the ice cream.
Rein slowly stepped back as she tried to reason her companion, "B-but the other people are watching us. It's embarrassing!"
"We're just eating ice cream. Not like we're doing something indecent. Or do you want me to eat you up too?" A sudden playful smile appeared in the prince's face as Rein blushed even more. Rein was speechless when it came down to this as Shade informed the girl, "Hey, the ice cream is dripping on that side."
"O-ok!" Rein hurriedly licked the ice cream as the two worked their way with the melting ice cream.
Oblivious to the lovebirds, the customers and the employees were all gazing at the couple's interaction. Finally one of the employees interrupted the two, "Um…I'm sorry, but other people are waiting in line…"
Rein was still blushing as she apologized to the employee, "S-sorry!"
The employee smiled in return, "It's ok. I'm so jealous; you have such a devoting handsome boyfriend."
"Huh? Boyfriend?" Rein looked at Shade who was taking out a napkin from the shop counter and wiped his hand and his mouth.
"Well, aren't you guys on a date? What else is there for a guy and a girl to hang around alone?"
"It was my mistake," Rein and Shade was out of the shop. Rein finally finished her flashback as she stopped her feet and stated this. Dates were meant to be with boy and girl who loved each other. If the employee mistook that they were a couple, what would happen if Bright saw us? The one Rein loved was Bright and not Shade.
Shade shrugged nonchalantly as he replied, "Even if you regret it, you're too late now. We are in Shopping Street already."
"I will go back to the hotel right now."
As Rein was about to turn back to the bus stop, Shade picked up a doll and pushed it right into her face, "You sure you don't want to take a look?"
Rein quivered in frustration as she snatched the doll away from her face and shoved it back into one of the boxes which was for sale, "~~~~~Why do you always manipulate me like this!"
Shade acted as if he was thinking as he replied, "Well maybe because you are easy to read?"
"Ugh, I'm going to this shop! And don't follow me." After Rein stomped inside the store, the blue haired man chuckled and nonchalantly followed after the girl.

"This is sooo cute!" Shade watched the princess pick out a doll and hugged it as if it was the most important thing in the world. They were in a shop, "Moo's Paradise", before them, thousands of cow designed ornaments and products were lined in a neat row.
Shade tried to identify the odd creature as he made a conclusion, "….A cow?"
Rein squealed in delight, completely forgetting about what she said a few seconds ago, "It's not just an ordinary cow. It's a super deluxe flying cow edition." Rein pushed the intricately woven doll to Shade's face.
Shade dispassionately stated, "A flying cow."
"Yep, you can't find the same ones anywhere in the universe except for over here."
"And what does that toy scrap do for you?"
Rein looked at Shade as if he committed a heresy, "It's not a toy scrap! It makes a soothing 'moo' sound and relaxes your mind."
Without giving much care to the doll, Shade replied, "Wow, so useful. I can just toss that cotton ball in a trash bin over there."
"I think it's more useful than you."
Shade looked at the other cow products uncomfortably as he threatened them, "I can make myself useful by eradicating this whole thing for you."
"Stop calling this precious a cotton ball or toy scrap!"
The prince laughed sarcastically, "You can't even use that thing to help with your failing grades. You're just wasting your time and money on that stuff."
"You're eyes are rotten that you can't see the beauty of this treasure!"
"Oh yeah? You know what I think is beautiful?"
Rein huffed in anger as she turned her face to the side, "What? And don't tell me a sexy older lady or something, 'cause that will just piss me off and I might start attacking you."
"It's you."
The sudden unexpected word made the girl look back at the boy half in doubt and surprise, "What?"
Shade recited his words again, "The most beautiful person is you."
Rein still couldn't believe what she just heard. Rein was speechless. How did the whole argument turn into a confession? Or is it really a confession? Unable to think straight, Rein looked at Shade blankly, "Huh?"
Shade sighed, he knew that this was not an easy confession, but he was no way near to back down. The man leaned closer to Rein as he gently took her hand and kissed them, "You want me to say it again? You are more beautiful than anything in this world."
Rein blushed wildly and immediately took her hands away from Shade's hold, "W-what the hell are you joking for!"
This time, Shade looked at Rein straight in the eye and stated, "I'm serious."
Finally realizing that Shade was serious, Rein swiftly avoided eye contact and went outside the store, "…I-I'm going outside to breathe some fresh air."
Shade just watched Rein go outside as he looked at the ground and whispered, "I love you, Rein…"
Oh my god, tsunami warning at my place and I have no school. Now I feel bad because my wish came true… And I am really worried about the awesome ppl in Japan… getting quite scared, am I becoming a psychic or just a coincidence? Yeah, just getting super paranoid. I think I need some coke to chill out.
