Author's Note: Here's another chapter and thanks for waiting and also for the reviews. I really appreciate it.
RECAP:
Shuuichi and Botan left for the restaurant where Shuuichi has reserved. They arrived and were shown to their table, which was far away from the other customers.
"This is a nice place." Botan said when they are settled. "I like it, it's so cozy." Botan added.
"It's good that you like it." Shuuichi said, "I like this place too, my dad used to bring me here once in a while, just to do a what he called 'Male Bonding'" Shuuichi added somehow at ease talking to Botan about his father.
"How nice, my dad used to bring me to the Ferris wheel even when I'm old already and we would laugh together and suddenly he would change subject into me having a boyfriend and all." Botan said looking at Shuuichi "I really miss him you know." Botan added matter of fact.
Shuuichi watch Botan reminisced the memory of her father and somehow hearing Botan talked about him make him feel that Mr. Furuya is a nice man and also he didn't felt any anger for the man when Botan mentioned him. What does that mean?
Chapter Ten: Officially A Couple.
"I want to be honest with you." Shuuichi said half way through dinner. "I like you so much." Shuuichi added looking at Botan to see her reaction.
"Like, in what way?" Botan asked while praying to God at the same time that he meant what she thinks he meant.
"I want us to be more than friends." Shuuichi answered and somehow he really meant it and not because of his plan but before he could think about it he dismiss it.
Botan's heart did a very fast flip flop after hearing Shuuichi, and Botan knew that she needs to tell him that she wanted the same thing as his.
"Botan?" Shuuichi asked worried that Botan would say no, that she doesn't feel the same way.
"I just can't believe it, I mean, I felt the same way about you too." Botan said trying hard to explain her feelings.
"Really?" Shuuichi asked, having a hard time to contain the happiness that had suddenly bubbled up from his chest and went all over his body.
"Really!" Botan simply answered with a smile.
Everything happens so fast. The next thing Botan knows, she was standing with Shuuichi next on their secluded table and he was kissing her.
"I'm sorry, I know I'm going way to fast for you." Shuuichi said breathlessly after he pulled away from the kiss.
Botan, who was still out of breath from the kiss smiled at him and said, "It was a long time coming."
"I know!" Shuuichi simply said, looking at Botan's eyes then on her lips that are parted a little and still pink and swollen from his kisses. "You taste so good." Shuuichi added and before Botan could say anything else, Shuuichi had captured her mouth for another kiss.
As Shuuichi kiss Botan, he nipped her lower lips for her to open her lips for him to be able to thrust his tongue which send electricity to Botan's whole body making her wrap her arms around Shuuichi's neck for support.
Three Days Later…"Am I early?" Shuuichi asked as he entered Botan's office with a smile on his face.
Botan, who was working on some documents look up and smiled at Shuuichi.
"Hey you!" Botan said standing up as Shuuichi walk towards her and gave her a long passionate kiss.
"Ready?" Shuuichi asked her.
"Yeah, just give me a second." Botan said and kiss him lightly on the lips before clearing her desk so that she and Shuuichi can have their fifth date. "I'm all set." Botan added as she approach Shuuichi who lace his fingers with her.
The Date…Shuuichi and Botan where sitting on a secluded beach that only Shuichi knows about. According to him, his dad used to bring his mom here where they both just hold their hands together and recall the time that they had shared and will be sharing. And now, Shuuichi and Botan are doing exactly what Shuuichi's parents had been doing, hand entwined with each other looking at the ocean as they recall the days they had spent with each other.
Shuuichi and Botan recalled the day when they had first kiss.
(A/N: The following are what had happened the last three days.)

Shuuichi had taken Botan home after they finished dinner and he kissed her again before saying goodbye.
The Next Day After The Kiss…Shuuichi had picked Botan up from her office again with a bouquet of red roses hiding behind his back and on that particular day he had took her to the secluded beach and told her about the place and how it meant a lot to him and to his parents.

(A/N: This part and on are on the present time.)
"I like this, sitting here with you, looking at the ocean, waiting for the sun to rise." Botan murmured as Shuuichi's arms wrap around her tightly making her able to lay her back on his chest even more than possible. "Its so romantic." Botan added, feeling Shuuichi's warmth enveloping her.
"I can say I feel the same way." Shuuichi said near Botan's right ear, and as she move her head to look at him, he had captured her lips with a kiss making her arms wrap automatically on his neck.
Unknown to them, someone was taking a picture of them as they kiss.
"Take your time as much as you can Shuuichi because it wont last." A man's voice said as he stop taking pictures and started to walk towards his car which was part far away from the beach where the couples where kissing so that they wont here him coming and leaving.
That's it so Review and tell me what you think. I'll try to post the next chapter next week.
