mizutani
says
strawberries! \(´ｖ`)/
Izumi
says
let's go *nods in the vague direction of a grocer's*
follows~ X3
doesn't know what to say >_<
Izumi
says
so. English. think you can help now?
mizutani
says
of course! i've prepared for friday especially. (´ｖ`)/
Izumi
says
which is to say you're not ready now?
Izumi
is
totally not talking about English homework >_>
mizutani
says
i am! D: we can do it now, too, if you want to~
mizutani
is
talking about homework, really. maybe.
Izumi
says
nah, I'm kind of beat tonight. Friday's good.
Izumi
says
though you never answered, about staying over?
mizutani
thinks
bedsharing~ (´ｖ`)/
mizutani
says
you should, you should! i took a lot of notes this time, so we have a lot to go over, ehe. 
Izumi
thinks
ASTSJKLGRJI THIS IS ACTUALLY GOING TO HAPPEN OHGOD I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M DOING.
Izumi
says
okay. your parents won't mind?
mizutani
thinks
\(´ｖ`)/ (ooc: he won't realize the impact until friday night itself probably. XDDD so speshul.)
Izumi
thinks
(ohohoho, this should be fun)
mizutani
says
they're fine! don't worry about it.
Izumi
says
right. anything else I should bring?
Izumi
thinks
OH SMOOTH, KOUSUKE. >_<
mizutani
says
...cake? haha, no, we're good. i'm taking care of you this time around! (´ｖ`)
's eyes widen a little
Izumi
says
thanks for having me, then.
Izumi
thinks
Mizutani already took care of him before.
mizutani
has
just realized what he said and looks mortified.
Izumi
asks
is something wrong?
Izumi
thinks
maybe Mizutani is backing out :<
mizutani
says
THAT WAS. i didn't-- *flails* i guess i've been hanging around tajima too much lately, huh.
Izumi
says
eh?
Izumi
says
OH.
mizutani
has
no idea how to aplogize for hitting on someone by accident!
looks away to hide his embarrassment
Izumi
says
well. Maybe you have. A little.
Izumi
is
still bitter about the making out in public thing.
mizutani
has
just realized he dug himself deeper into a hole because of that last statement. orz
mizutani
says
ahahaha.
mizutani
says
i guess that means i should hang out with you more...?
Izumi
is
speechless for a second.
Izumi
says
maybe? I wouldn't mind.
mizutani
says
ehe. (´ｖ`)
mizutani
feels
pretty pleased with himself right now!
Izumi
is
pleased with this conclusion but doesn't know what to say. AGAIN.
Izumi
says
I guess we should go inside?
nods towards the grocer's, in front of which they've been standing for half the conversation.
mizutani
says
oh, right! X3
grimaces a little at the price of the strawberries.
Izumi
says
pick what you want, then.
mizutani
is
paying since he suggested it, and winces too. ; A ;
mizutani
says
eh, is it okay though? i don't know how to tell if it's good!
Izumi
says
you can tell by...
Izumi
says
...
Izumi
says
...
Izumi
says
I have no idea, actually.
mizutani
says
hahaha! let's just get the nice looking ones, then. (´ｖ`) this one is cute~
watches Mizutani pick his strawberries with fondness (carefully disguised as amusement)
ends up picking a lot, since no one is stopping him. :>
Izumi
asks
you're going to eat all that?
mizutani
says
you can have some of it! *gives a sidelong glance* half of it?
Izumi
says
half's a bit much, but I'll have some.
takes out his wallet to split the cost
mizutani
says
no, i'll pay! i was the one who dragged you along. :<
Izumi
says
I... don't mind that.
Izumi
thinks
for a second about how to handle this
puts his money back in his bag
Izumi
says
alright, you pay now.
pays the grocer. :>
Izumi
says
but we're having yakisoba on Friday, and it's on me.
Izumi
says
For the strawberries, and.
Izumi
says
for... helping out. when I was sick.
Izumi
is
uncomfortable again.
mizutani
says
oh! that isn't necessary at all, but. i like yakisoba. thank you!
Izumi
thinks
they're now going on an actual DATE with a sleepover at the end.
briefly considers panicking.
mizutani
is
still slow on the uptake @ friday date thing. XD
Izumi
says
hey, let's stop here
sits on a bench and tries to relax a little
flops down next to him. X3 maybe a bit closer than necessary.
Izumi
thinks
that it's a shame that all the relaxation techniques he knows involve body contact.
picks a strawberry, and eats it with his eyes closed, slouching a little.
starts eating too! X3
mizutani
says
this is nice. (´ｖ`)/
Izumi
is
enjoying the break. and the food. and the company.
Izumi
says
yeah. *smiles*
mizutani
likes
the company best. :>
Izumi
is
picking strawberries without looking, just enjoying the moment.
mizutani
gives
in to the urge and leans against izumi a bit. just a bit! barely noticeable, really.
notices. notices A LOT.
lets out a deep breath. this is okay, right? it's going slow, but it's nice, and they're both...
Izumi
is
not too sure of the terminology yet.
Izumi
has
abandonned eating fruit in favour of observing Mizutani.
there's a trace of red at the corner of his mouth. it's distracting!
mizutani
is
is eating still! and happy izumi's okay with the leaning. (´ｖ`)/
mizutani
says
oh, you're done already? *notices the staring* ...what? :<
Izumi
says
what?
mizutani
says
you're staring! is there something on my face? (´A`)
nods, but doesn't say anything.
mizutani
says
where?
sort of wants to wipe it himself, but.
Izumi
says
why don't you finish eating first.
mizutani
is
so okay with that!
mizutani
says
...okay?
stops staring before Mizutani thinks he's being creepy, but shifts a little to make the leaning more comfortable
mizutani
is
extremely comfortable, thanks. :> resumes omnomnoming~
Izumi
says
you'll have no appetite for dinner...
realizes stress makes him sound like his mother, and shuts up.
mizutani
says
hahaha, i seriously doubt it, though! i'm never not hungry. *teenage boy*
mizutani
says
and i guess practice takes up a lot of energy too~ (´ｖ`)
Izumi
says
tell me about it :|
Izumi
gives
in again to the temptation of ruffling Mizutani's hair.
blinks and sighs happily. his life is good. (´ｖ`)/
mizutani
says
it's kind of...good, too, though, that we're seriously aiming for koshien. i feel like i've improved a lot!
Izumi
says
we all have, I think
Izumi
says
and yeah, it's good to have something big to look forward to
mizutani
says
yup! i'll keep doing my best. (´ｖ`)/ *pokes* you too.
*pulls Mizutani's hair a little in response to the poke* of course.
mizutani
says
meaaan~ (´ｖ`)
Izumi
says
don't start, then
messes Mizutani's hair once more before pulling back, sliding his fingers on the back of Mizutani's neck on the way
shivers at the touch.
mizutani
says
ehh, i was only trying to be encouraging. :<
Izumi
says
I know.
Izumi
is
kind of grinning
mizutani
is
kind of grinning back. :>
really really wants to kiss him :/
leans away a little
Izumi
says
you've got juice on your face. :|
mizutani
says
still? (´A`) where?
shakes his head
Izumi
says
don't move
reaches to wipe off the trace of red from the corners of Mizutani's mouth with his thumb
Izumi
says
there, gone.
mizutani
says
oh.
mizutani
says
thanks.
mizutani
is
not moving. :>
decides against licking it off his finger, no matter how tempting.
Izumi
says
no problem
AND MEANS IT.
Izumi
thinks
he should go home soon
mizutani
thinks
it's getting kind of late, baww. :<
Izumi
says
so, what's with the sudden strawberry fixation?
Izumi
is
not above using trite topics of conversation to stay a little longer
mizutani
says
ahahaha.
's body language is totally screaming awkwaaaard right now.
raises an eyebrow
Izumi
is
merciless! It's a family thing.
mizutani
says
i kind of got the craving because uh. remember the other day, when tajima was giving out popsicles? and yours was...
mizutani
is
turning very, very, red.
Izumi
says
strawberry.
remembers.
mizutani
says
...yeah.
the events, not why he suddenly decided that being lewder than Tajima was a good idea.
leans back against the bench.
Izumi
says
I would have shared, you know. :|
mizutani
says
...would you.
Izumi
is
looking away.
Izumi
says
... sure.
mizutani
thinks
izumi being lewder than tajima was a great accomplishment! tajima is not very easily out-lewded, you know.
Izumi
thinks
there was a certain amount of satisfaction in making Tajima embarrassed, and that was definitely a factor.
mizutani
says
oh. well. i'll keep that in mind. (´ｖ`)
Izumi
thinks
it was worth it anyway, if it got Mizutani's attention *that* much.
Izumi
says
good.
Izumi
says
it's getting late, I should go home
Izumi
thinks
otherwise Takami will be on his back again >|
Izumi
is
reluctant nonetheless
mizutani
says
i'll walk you back! (ooc: if it's walkable, that is. XD)
mizutani
is
just as reluctant, you see. :<
Izumi
thinks
^______^
gets up and stretches
(now that I think about it, where did they leave the bikes? XDD)
(possibly still at school? XDDD)
(that's not very convenient. XD)
(they left them a little before getting the strawberries? :3)
(we suck at planning. XD)
(better! also, so much XDDD)
Izumi
says
'kay, let's go.
ambles after izumi~ X3
wonders if he should invite Mizutani for dinner, but thinks Takami would blow a fuse.
mizutani
thinks
so too. (´A`)
wonders why it's so hard to find something to say sometimes.
Izumi
thinks
maybe it'd get easier if he just went ahead and put everything in the open, but this is nice too, and there's Friday coming, and...
mizutani
thinks
friday~ \(´ｖ`)/
Izumi
is
suddenly aware that they've walked half the way back to his place in silence.
Izumi
thinks
it's not too uncomfortable, though.
mizutani
thinks
nope, not at all. :>
wonders if takami'll ever get over the hugging bit, though. (´A`) it makes his life very hard!
Izumi
says
oh, speaking of popsicles.
Izumi
is
going back to the topic of fifteen minutes ago, and doesn't care.
Izumi
asks
did you eat the ones we got last time?
Izumi
says
since you cheated me out of getting mine. :|
mizutani
says
no? they're probably still in the freezer.
mizutani
says
i didn't mean to! gomen nya. (´A`)
Izumi
says
really, now? *raises an eyebrow at him
mizutani
says
really really! *looks earnest* ...*reminds himself to doublecheck, and, if not, buy replacements, ehe*
chuckles and shakes his head
Izumi
says
you're too easy sometimes.
mizutani
says
...! sometimes being simple is a good point, you know! so i'll take that as a compliment. :<
wonders what Abe would have to say about *that*!
Izumi
says
it was one. (in a very low voice)
Izumi
says
it's fine, as long as you don't get carried away with things without thinking them through?
mizutani
thinks
definitely not something noce, if it's abe.
heard, and blushes. he's glad it's dark already so it's not too obvious. (*nice, orz)
mizutani
says
haha, yeah! i'll be careful~ (´ｖ`)/
Izumi
says
you should be.
Izumi
thinks
they're there already 
mizutani
thinks
...shortest 40 minutes ever orz. but! friday~ (´ｖ`)/
(it wasn't 40 minutes! XDDD)
(OH RIGHT, WTF. /short term memry loss)
Izumi
thinks
he just saw a curtain move
Izumi
thinks
Takami is becoming worryingly controlling these days.
Izumi
says
I gotta go. Thanks for walking back with me?
stands awkwadly at the gate
mizutani
thinks
...HE
mizutani
thinks
(WTF ENTER KEY) ..HE'S TURNING INTO ABE (´A`)
mizutani
says
no problem, seriously! see you tomorrow~ :>
Izumi
says
yep!
waves and goes in quickly, rather than hovering for half an hour like he's tempted to do.
Izumi
thinks
it's good that Friday's coming soon because this is nice BUT FRUSTRATING.
sticks his tongue out at the swishy curtains and cycles off reluctantly. :<
(ooc) HAHAHAHAHAHA. we are really pepped up wrt friday, as you can tell!
(OHAI, STALKER)
(ooc) very cute! :*
(it is! <3)
(... and now I'm going to bed. you too, Teap!)
(so cute, you guys. go to sleep~)
(yuz~ sleepytime for teap and drae. :*)
(chuuuuu~<3)
Good lord, I think this is the longest thread in the RP. XD)
(because we're weak. weeeaaaaaak. most self-indulgent thread ever. XD)
(Hahahahaaha I feel bad now that I miss this all when I sleep!)
