3/20/15. Sorry for the wait! Thank you for those who continuously supported this story, please enjoy!
"Well, well, well. Kaicho, what a nice surprise. Are you two dating now?" A blonde drawled with an amused, yet troubled demeanour; his gaze drifting from the lady with pink dusted cheeks & a man whose thoughts were probably of his death.
"I don't believe it would remotely be in the scope of your business." Tora uttered with much venom, though his posture was still of uninterested indifference.
"Now if you'd please excuse us, we have appetites to ease." At that, the bleach blonde man who thought that his date with the only woman who was able to remain in his interest for more than one night, and has successfully landed herself at the at the centre of his otherwise uncaring heart was saved until... a glass shattered.
All heads seated at the most prestigious quarter of the restaurant, which barely managed to reach 10, turned to a pinkette that the manager was profusely apologising to since her sparkling water fell, but only due to her excited jump as she recognised the couple who her date went off to.
"Misaki!" The said girl would have probably thrown a fit for being disturbed from the show Tora's exchange was providing, and for receiving a holler one too many times at such an early hour, but seeing her latest pursuer caused even herself to jump up with joy and meet her halfway.
"It's been quite awhile! How are you? Has Kuuga been treating you well? Just say the word and he won't be seeing daylight for at least a month!" Misaki quickly gushed while hugging her crying friend.
"Waah! Misaki, I missed you!" Latching herself to her friend, Sakura immediately sank down and animatedly hit Misaki's sides firing about how she and Shizuka were worried about her disappearance, and later after speaking to her mother, her wellbeing.
The servers, alerted by the pinkette's outburst, straightaway attempted to near the woman. Upon failing and stricken with fear of committing a mistake, approached the gentlemen who accompanied the women who were giving the rest of the diners a show.
Kuuga and Tora, both entertained forgot about their little spat and mutually decided to restrain the emotional duo before anything more ensues.
Once the couples were once again seated and back to their senses, Misaki invited the other pair to sit with them, much to Tora's displeasure. Upon noticing so, the brunette merely raised a brow and sat beside the irritated blonde, thankfully calming him down.
"Oh no!" Sakura expressed, covering her mouth in fear. The singer, Tora noticed, was genuinely worried for his date and so he decided to level down his irritation, for the sake of his own lady.
"We will probably be kicked out due to all the drama caused! I'm so sorry!" The pink-haired girl continued obviously about to cry once again. Her exclamation certainly troubled Kuuga, though he tried to mask it.
The couple's distress was certainly a show, but it was not to ruin their morning. Hence, Misaki tried to calm them down as what matters was that they were reunited with each other. As those occurred, Tora idly scanned the menu.
Realising that the two crashers could destroy Misaki's mood, he decided to end all their worries. Begrudgingly he lifted his eyes from the menu, though they were filled with arrogance, and stated "They wouldn't dare."
He consequently pointed at a dessert in his menu to his angel, "Misaki you like fruit, right?"
Effectively gaining her full attention, Tora was pleased as he saw that she liked his choice. And all according to his plan, she did frown as she saw the rather large serving portions. About to decline and comment on the abundance, Tora scooted too close for his own good that it affected not just her cheeks, but also his.
Groaning at his mistake, he knew proceeding was the only option for both their sanities. Looking into her eyes, he asked "You wouldn't mind sharing, right? It is recommended for two."
Mentally patting himself at the back for not stuttering, he knew the plan was a success and that the other couple would be too busy sweetening up behind their own menu to notice his complexion. Now he was left to wait for Misaki's answer and try not to get too lost in her captivating eyes.
"Uh..uh, yeah, of course." Misaki, obviously still bothered, choked out as she fought to tame her reddening cheeks. Cheeky bastard! She mentally screamed. If only Tora knew what was coming for him...
It has been awhile, I'm really sorry. I also apologise for the (quite) different writing style and also the mistakes in earlier chapters, I aspire to fix those. Thank you again!
