Model Idol Combi: there's always that first date

[jitensha]

[ Makoto had heard it on the highest authority (Miki) that girls should always be fashionably late to their dates. It left the guy 'frothing with desire', or something like that. And she'd dwelt on it, she really had, even as she sifted through her closet for the sixth time.

Makoto has always been Makoto, though, and that meant she didn't feel right purposely taking her time. It's why she's waiting near the entrance-- has been waiting for ten minutes with the long black skirt and the white shirt with the artfully placed frills and the red heels that click so cutely when she walks. It's a far cry from the jeans and sweatshirts she usually runs around in.

But she'd like to think it's not bad. ]

[There we go. He was going to ask her if something was wrong if that kept up. Since there's no need now, he makes sure the conversation doesn't flop instead.]

I think so too, they're the best ones! Then we should go on the roller coaster later, or the drop tower?

[jitensha]

Both of them! But the roller coaster should definitely be first!!

[ yes, this is dating conversation. ]

[ex_doubly406]

[Hey, just because they're not talking about their feelings--]

You don't scare easily huh. Ah, but we should check out some of the game stands too, they're always fun.

[With his free hand he reaches for the map Makoto's holding. Sort of. Actually he holds her wrist instead so that she can still hold the map for him. Sure he has to bend down a bit to do this, but she already has hers out so why not?]

[jitensha]

[ things like heights and speed don't scare her, no. She'll get all sorts of freaked if they hit up the haunted house, though.

But for now, she's fine holding the map like this, blinking up at him before she drops her eyes back to the paper. ]

There's a couple right by the food... maybe after lunch?

[ex_doubly406]

[Having no idea, Kise's bound to drag them to the haunted house. Yepp.]

If that's what you want. [A ~dazzling~ smile, before turning his attention back to the map.] Ooh, lucky, there's a pirate ship close by too!

[jitensha]

[ ... her life. ]

Really?? We'll have to check out everything!

[ex_doubly406]

[Think of it as an excuse to hold him.]

Right? We'll be here for a long time!

[Aaaand they're probably near the front now, so let's say they're getting on the ride. Kise will help her in of course, with an 'after you' before getting on himself.]

[jitensha]

[ he gets a grateful smile in a return and a tap to his hat. ]

I hope it won't fall off...

[ex_doubly406]

Huh? [He fixes his hat, lowering it a bit more.] Oh, this? I don't think it'll fall off, I made sure it wouldn't before I came.

[So he says... But...]

[jitensha]

Well, I'll try to catch it if it does! But I think we're set, then!

[ and she's still so excited. ]

[ex_doubly406]

[And that excitement is infectious, so he's pretty much forgotten the deal with the hat and enjoys the ride.

Which means he's laughing throughout the entire thing, getting even more excited at the big drop.

Predictably, his hat goes missing after that.]

[jitensha]

[ of course it does. Makoto also insisted on sitting near the front, so she's not exactly dry after that.

But wow is she beaming. ]

That was amazing!

[ex_doubly406]

[So is he, and he's not exactly dry either. He takes his sunglasses off, not aware that his hat is missing. So much for disguising himself.]

It was even better than it looked! Can we go on it again?

[Even though they're all wet?]

[jitensha]

One more time!

[ wow Kise you're going to draw in the fangirls when you're wet like that. ]

[ex_doubly406]

[Look at him sparkle in the sunlight--

Okay no, but to be fair, he thinks he still has a hat on.]

Alright, one more time it is! Let's hurry before the line gets longer!

[Oh my god he's so excited-- wait wait.] Ah, but let me give you my jacket before that.

[HER PRETTY FRILLY BLOUSE IS ALL WET thank god for layers right.]

[jitensha]

Ah-- m-more importantly, your hat!

[ IT WILL DRY and yes thank god for layers. ]

[ex_doubly406]

Eh?

[Patting his hair--

It's gone. Shit.]

Ah-- [He shoves his sunglasses back on, turning to look in the water like the hat will float back to him.

Of course it doesn't.]

Damn it, I borrowed that too...

[jitensha]

... Let's ask the ride operator. I'm sure they've had stuff like this happen before.

[ex_doubly406]

Uh, if we do that it'll take too long to get another ride in. It's fine, I'll buy another one later as an apology.

[He'll probably have to buy another one to avoid the fangirls anyway.]

[jitensha]

[ there's a pause, and then her eyes take on a brighter light of determination. ]

Hold my place in line for a second-- I'll be right back!

[ and she's off yet again. Without borrowing his jacket, but first things first. ]

[ex_doubly406]

Eh? Wait, Makocchi--

[... She's like a sprinter in those heels. There's not much he can do but wait like she told him to.]

... You didn't take my jacket.

[Even as he finishes his sentence lamely.]

[jitensha]

[ it's warm enough outside! True to her word, though, Makoto doesn't take long at all. She's not gone for more than three minutes before she's back, not even out of breath and carrying a black hat with her. ]

Here... I asked one of the operators to keep an eye out for it, but he said I could have this one for the time being. I guess they fish out a lot of them every day!

1/2

[ex_doubly406]

[He's stunned. He'd told her that it wasn't worth it, but she still ran back and forth to talk to the operator? She got a new hat for him too.

She really is amazing.]

[ex_doubly406]

[So yeah, if he laughs, it's not because he's laughing at her. Taking the hat, he gives her a wink.]

Thanks. You're incredible, Makocchi!

[jitensha]

Saying that's a little too much... sorry for making you wait!
