Model Idol Combi: Hair

[jitensha]

[ it's rare that she can garner enough time away from a packed schedule and her own school hours to drop by Kaijou, but even if it's just a practice match, Makoto likes to faithfully attend what she can. She's always liked basketball, so growing closer to Kise had only made that fondness stronger. It's fun to watch them get into the game, and it's fun to lose herself cheering for them.

But it's warmer today than it's been all week, and with the hat crammed over her head to hide her identity (she so optimistically felt), it was doing little to cool her head off. Strands were starting to stick to her neck.

... In a sense, it's a happy realization, that her hair was growing longer by the day, but for now, it was a little bit troubling. Still, she waits until the court's cleared out, enough of Kise's squealing crowd dissipating to allow her to sweep her hat off and try to salvage her hair.

It's a shame she can't see what she's doing. ]

[And he ends up laughing at that.]

What're you sounding so surprised for? I tell you that all the time! Makocchi is really cute!

[What is this overwhelming ikemen atmosphere.] It's just you're extra cute today.

[jitensha]

[ ow Kise tone down the sparkles-- ]

I-I know, it's just--

[ she really doesn't know how to phrase it, and when she pauses to think it through, she has to come to the realization once again that she's really lucky to have a boyfriend like him. So rather than struggle to explain that, she just beams at him, unabashedly. ]

Thank you, Ryota-kun!

[ex_doubly406]

Welcome. [Grinning, he takes her hand.] Let's go out somewhere. It's a waste to go straight home.

[jitensha]

Are you hungry?

[ it's become second nature to ease her fingers in between his, and she braces herself on the bench to rise to her feet. Obviously, she can't wear her hat when he's taken such pains with her hair, but hopefully they can stay low-key. ]

[ex_doubly406]

Definitely! [He stands up, not letting go of her hand even as he leans down to pick up her hat for her.] What do you want to get?

[jitensha]

Okonomiyaki!

[ at least she's decisive. ]

[ex_doubly406]

I haven't had that in a while! Alright, let's go, my treat!

[At least he's enthusiastic.]

[jitensha]

Even though you're the one who won your match today?

[ex_doubly406]

I'd have to pay anyway, so at least let me pay for my extra cute girlfriend instead.

[jitensha]

... Saying it like that is unfair.

[ and it's making her red. ]

[ex_doubly406]

Okay okay, a foul for me. [But he leans in to tuck a strand behind her ear anyway.] It's the truth though.

[jitensha]

[ he's close enough, and Makoto tends to rely on impulse, so before he can straighten up, she turns her head to press a light kiss to his mouth. ]

That's your punishment, then.

[ex_doubly406]

[Oh my god they're so disgusting, senpai where are you you need to kick him!!!

But as it turns out, the gym is completely empty, so there's nothing stopping Kise from returning the kiss just as quickly before straightening up.]

And that was yours, so we're even.

[jitensha]

-- Hey, wait, I didn't foul!

[ex_doubly406]

That kiss was a foul!

[jitensha]

You were tempting me.

[ex_doubly406]

You just admitted you fouled, Makocchi.

[jitensha]

But I--!

[ and the protest is immediate until she realizes that... yes, she walked right into that one. She's left to have a disgruntled sigh, accepting but not defeated. ]

Well, I'd do it again if it came to that.

[ex_doubly406]

Uwaah, Makocchi's bold today! Does that mean we'll be acting super lovey-dovey at the restaurant?

[jitensha]

I think we'd get kicked out if we did!

[ex_doubly406]

I don't think they'd kick us out for kissing...

[...]

--Makocchi, what are you thinking?!

[jitensha]

A lot of people find that way too personal to be doing in public, and it might bother-- I'm not thinking about anything else!

[ex_doubly406]

I didn't mean it like that! Um you see it on the street all the time, don't you? Unless we walked into a conservative one, it should be fine. We'll ask for a private booth too!

[jitensha]

... You're getting into the idea, aren't you?

[ex_doubly406]

Eh? [Yeah Miracle Worker Ryota is getting a bit red.] It's not fair if you put it like that...
