Makoto's POV

"You know, given the chance, I would definitely do with Aigis what you and Rise did."

Yu: "You guys are never gonna let that go are you?"

It's the next day, Rise came to town for a photoshoot yesterday, decided to visit Leblanc when Yu shows up AGAIN, and proceeded to kiss her for 20 minutes straight.

Ren: "We are definitely not Smooches."

Me: "Absolutely not."

Ren: "Like you're one to talk Cuddles."

Yu: "Hey don't hate cuz we have girlfriends."

Ren can't even respond to that.

Yu: "Oh wait, who was it you mentioned inviting to our triple date? Yoshizawa-san? So that's who's stolen our dear tricksters heart. How ironic for a Phantom Thief."

Ren: "Bro you got one more word."

Yu laughs.

Yu: "Ok I'm sorry buddy, I honestly think you two would make a cute couple."

Ren: "Cmon man, it's not like I... I mean I... just SHUT UP!"

Now we're both laughing.

Yu: "HAHAHAHA!"

Me: "Wow Ren, you never struck me as bashful."

Now he actually gets up with a mad look on is face... and punches us both on the arm.

Me: "OUCH!"

Ren: "Just leave me alone guys."

He's fun to mess with.

Yu: "Ok I'm sorry buddy, but I was being serious, I really do think you two would be good together."

Ren looks at me.

Me: "Sorry man, but I agree."

Ren: "Fine, if you insist on talking about this... I may... like... her... a little bit."

Yu: "Look at that, a confession. Do you want me to prepare the wedding venue?"

Ren: "Do you wanna get punched? Again?"

Yu: "AHAHAHAHA!"

Ren: "Cmon man you're never this jokey."

Yu: "I'm sorry, I'm just dating the most amazing girl in the world, so I'm really... happy, right now."

Ren: "I'm happy for you, but do you have to take it out on me?"

Yu: "All jokes aside Ren, I wish you the best. You and Makoto. And if either of you ever need my help, I'll be there."

Ren: "Thank you Yu, and vice versa."

Me: "I'm not great at asking for help, or knowing what to say when someone needs it, but I should be there too."

Yu: "Thanks guys, so regarding this triple date, I'm thinking December 24th."

Ren: "Christmas Eve?"

Yu: "Yeah, so you and Yoshizawa can have a personal date on Christmas Day."

Ren: "Bro come on."

Yu: "That wasn't a joke, I'm serious. I'm planning to do the same with Rise."

Me: "Oh yeah, Aigis would love that, maybe I could take her back to Tatsumi, we could have the dorm to ourselves."

Yu: "I could book a room at the Amagi inn for me and Rise."

Ren: "I guess I could invite Sumi over, if she would even want to."

Yu: "Ren, any girl would be lucky to have you."

Ren once said the same thing about him.

Ren: "Thanks man, wait... you said you're going to book a room at an Inn for you and Rise... alone."

So?

Yu: "Yeah so what? I'm not gonna make a move without her ok."

(Make a move?) what's he talking about?

Ren: "Have you two done it before?"

Me: "Done what?"

They both just look at me, shocked.

Yu: "Should we tell him?"

Ren: "DON'T YOU DARE!"

Tell me what?

Yu: "I'm gonna tell him."

Ren: "Bro don't."

Tell me what? Done wha-...

Me: "OHHHHHHHHHHH!"

Yu: "Oh good he figured it out, and to answer your question Ren, yeah, we dated four years remember?"

Ren: "I guess I shouldn't be surprised."

Me: "I mean, I've done it too."

There's just a sudden awkward silence that fills Ren's/my room.

Ren: "But Aigis is an... I wouldn't imagine she'd..."

Me: "Not Aigis."

Yu: "Who?"

Me: "Elizabeth."

I think if their mouths opened any wider they could fit the entire world in there.

Yu and Ren: "WHATTTTTTT!?"

Me: "Yeah, one day she asked to see my room and... one thing led to another, it was before I realised I was in love with Aigis."

Yu: "Elizabeth as in the VELVET ROOM ATTENDANT?"

Me: "Yeah, that one."

Ren: "How do you eve- you SLEPT WITH ELIZABETH!?"

Me: "That is correct."

Yu: "Does Aigis know?"

Me: "Yeah, boy was she pissed, so uh, never bring that up in front of her."

Ren: "She's ok with that?"

Me: "It was before we even liked each other, and she's an anti shadow weapon so it's not like we can... she moved on, kinda."

Yu: "Kinda?"

Me: "Essentially, unless you want to feel the cold steel of her cruel lifeless hands squeeze your head until it's mush... don't bring it up."

Yu and Ren: "Noted."

Me: "Honestly, even I would probably die if I brought it up again."

Yu: "Do you guys ever think about dying?"

Ren: "Yeah, seeing a giant false God will do that to you."

Me and Yu: "Preach brother."

Ren: "I feel like if I were to ever die for any reason, it would be a good idea to leave a final goodbye message to give my loved ones some closure."

Closure huh?

Me: "Not a bad idea actually, when I sealed away Nyx I didn't even think of leaving a goodbye message, I probably should. Not that I have any plans on dying again."

Not "plans" anyway.

Yu: "Good, because I'll probably have to punch you if you did."

Me: "That would probably wake me up."

We all start laughing.

Ren: "I just realised we completely forgot to plan the date, and Morgana will be back with the girls any time now!"

Yu: "Right, well Ren, Makoto, this is your city right?"

Me: "How about we go to Miura Beach?"

Yu: "As much as I'd love to see Rise in a swimsuit, too many people would recognise her, plus, that's a privilege only I should get."

Ren: "But she models?"

Yu: "Don't remind me."

Ren: "Kichijoichi?"

Me: "Doesn't Sumire go there all the time?"

Ren: "Yeah I guess so- wait how did you know that?"

Me: "She invited me up there once."

Ren: "SHE WHAT? Alone?"

Me: "Yeah? It's no big deal."

Ren: "No big deal?"

Me: "Ren, I have Aigis, I'm not going to steal Sumire."

Ren: "And since when were you two chummy enough to use her first name?"

Oh brother.

Yu: "Jealous much?"

Ren: "I'm not Jea- ok fine a little."

Yu: "If you're so worried someone is going to take her, you should ask her out yourself."

Ren: "I know, I know! Okay? Oh! How about Seaside park?"

Yu: "With the ferris wheel? Yeah that sounds great actually."

Ren: "Great, I'll call Sumi."

It looks like we're all set, Christmas Eve is next week...

It would be nice to visit Gekkoukan too.
