The last bell rang at exactly two forty five pm.

And once it did the wild rush to escape the school building was on. Akisame stood at the front gate, just off to the side and out of the way with his hands thrust inside of his pants pockets. Waiting. Watching. His pale eyes scanning the sea of young faces for Hanna. He was not willing to let her escape him by trying to hide herself among the crowd, though he knew that made no real sense since she didn't know that he had come to the school to more or less whisk her away to some place more private.

The first familiar faces he saw were Kenichi and Miu. Both of whom just seemed to meander over to him, pause for a moment or two to stare, then exchange a look before seeming to shake themselves out of whatever funk they had come under and then ran off before he could so much as say a word to them for their rudeness.

Pressing his tongue against the inside of his cheek, he glared at the two's backs. Oh the horrible training regimen he had planned for the two to teach them some manners. Honestly! Was that how today's youth was supposed to conduct themselves? He wondered as he absently let his mind wander a bit as a flock of more- Good god, these kids were more like flocks of birds than actual humans.

Seriously. Not a single individual among them dared to walk- His train of thought halted then went totally blank for a moment as he caught sight of Hanna walking out of the school yard with several books in her arms.

My, my, my... He had never understood why older men found young girls in sailor suits appealing; but he understood the why of it now. Hanna was more than lovely in her little sailor suit. Especially when he could see how long and slender her legs were. She was- was...what was the word? Ravishable? Sexy? Oh dear god, kill me now. Akisame thought, embarrassed over his somewhat lack of control as he flushed slightly and averted his eyes when he noticed her start to look in his direction. Not wanting her to realize that he had been staring at her so intently.

The last thing he wanted to do was think more about how adorable she looked in her school uniform especially now that the time had come to ask her out. He might lose his nerve or something since he'd never really actually asked a girl/woman out before. He just usually let the females come to him and make a move, but since he didn't think that plan of action would work here, especially with someone so many years younger than himself- Perhaps it was for the best that he make the first move being as he had more experience.

He took several deep, calming breaths and then started walking towards her. Noting as he got closer to her that she seemed somewhat distracted by something. Reaching out he tapped her on her shoulder causing her to turn her head and look at him through wide, peculiarly mixed colored eyes that were so breathtakingly clear. "Hanna? Hanna Nole?"

She blinked at him as she turned her body completely around to face him as her arms tightened a fraction around the books in her grasp. "Y-Yes." She replied nervously as she looked around to see if there were any kids left who might help her if he turned out to be a creep. Which Akisame found sensible. A little offending but sensible nevertheless.

He smiled at her, "My name is Akisame Koetsuji. I believe you came to my home the other night and spoke to your schoolmate Miu about a possible arranged marriage between us." She blinked at him again as her jaw slowly dropped open in shock.

"O-Oh! Nice to meet you, sir." Hanna said politely with a quick bow the moment she finally regained her ability to speak. He chuckled at her formal greeting, thinking it was rather cute as she went on to say, "I didn't expect to hear anything from you so soon. Do you mind if I ask what you're purpose is?"

"I think you already more or less know my purpose. But in case you really need me to clear things up for you then the truth of the matter is I've gone over your profile several times and wished to meet you in person, and spend some time with you before making a final decision about a possible future with you." Akisame said. Knowing full well that he was half lying to her and his decision was already made. He merely felt it was best to go with the half lie for the moment since it might be the only way he could get her to consent to spending time alone with him.

After all, she couldn't exactly object to his planned 'date' if he said it was to help him better make up his mind. Hanna stared at him for a moment, seeming to go over what he had just said in her mind before nodding her head in acceptance. "I see. Spending a little time together would be for the best. It would help us get a better grasp of the other person's personality, likes, dislikes exct..."

"You're more sensible than I thought you'd be." He said with a grin, liking how easily she was falling in line with his plans before she nodded her head and said.

"Well. I try to be. What did you have in mind for spending time together?"

"Well, since I thought I would treat this as a date of sorts... I thought I'd take you out to a nice dinner and perhaps talk for a bit before moving on to do whatever you want." He said as he mentally went through the list of nice restaurants in the general area while Hanna looked down at herself and flushed.

Going on a date and all was fine. But he was dressed in a really nice outfit and she was...more than a little underdressed for spending time with him at the moment. After all school uniforms weren't ideal date dress unless you were into selling your body or dating someone your own age or something.

Reaching out she grasped his shirt sleeve and gently tugged on it so that he would look at her and flushed a little brighter when his pale eyes locked on her face as she said nervously, "Um... A date would be fine, but I need to change my clothes-"

"Oh. Of course, I didn't think-" He said politely as he reached out and laid his hand on top of her head and ruffled her pale blond hair before saying. "How about we work in a shopping trip before dinner? I'll buy you a new outfit, we'll carry your books and uniform in a bag and we'll go eat. Sound okay?"

Hanna never really had a chance to say yes or no to his offer. Or to even tell him that she didn't live very far, a mere side trip would be all that was needed to fix her clothing problem- before he pretty much grasped her hand and started dragging her down the street in the opposite direction of where she lived.
