Model Idol Combi: L is for the way you look at me

[jitensha]

[ it's a little awkward, being in a locker room and waiting for a certain someone to finish his primping. Even more embarrassing when 1/3 of his teammates knew you were there and teased you about peeking at shirtless guys.

This is, however, better than waiting outside where there were plenty of girls who were just leaving, because Makoto didn't wish to spend the afternoon fending off potential fans. For now, she's content to plunk down on a bench and sweep off her hat with a sigh. Maybe it smells too much like Sweaty Guy in here, but she'll endure it. ]

[ Not really, but she makes a pleased sound anyway. No matter how long it's been, she still melts when he kisses her.

At least they're not making out. ]

[ex_doubly406]

[At least they're not making out. Yet.

Though wow, he'll never not be fascinated by how she never fails to make it seem like their first time. For everything.

It's kind of hot.]

[jitensha]

[ You know what else is kind of hot?

Kise in a tie and a shirt that hadn't been buttoned fully. Which he really should fix, because then she wouldn't have been as tempted to kiss him (maybe). Pulling back and letting her eyes lower to that exposed skin isn't helping; she has to take a breath. ]

T-thanks...

[ex_doubly406]

[yeah he was starting to forget that he never finished buttoning his shirt with the kisses distracting him. But it's hard not to be reminded when her eyes keep drifting downward.]

Makocchi... [he settles his hand against her chin, bumping it up. Who knew he'd end up pulling a 'my eyes are up here' on her.] Do you want to do it today?

[jitensha]

[ a blink, and she looks almost guilty; where were her thoughts going? She's not even sure of the question. ]

Do it?

[ex_doubly406]

[s-seriously? But she kept looking there??]

Weren't you staring a little too hard? [Ahaha, wow being the pervert is hard.] Well, if you don't have anywhere you have to be later, since my place will be free.

[jitensha]

[ Wow, she's turning an impressive shade of scarlet now. She's going to overheat at this rate. ]

I-- don't have anywhere else to be today... if that's okay...

[ WHY IS SHE STILL SO FLUSTERED ]

[ex_doubly406]

[WHO KNOWS BUT SHE SHOULD STOP BECAUSE SHE'S FLUSTERING HIM TOO]

Ah... Mm, of course it's okay! [COUGH why is he getting so caught up in her embarrassment?? Time to pull out the sparkles.] Right, I'll do my best to show you how much I love you!

[jitensha]

If before was just you liking me...

[ex_doubly406]

Huh? If before was me liking you...? [what could that mean???]

[jitensha]

[ it means she is going to be so exhausted. ]

N-never mind! I'll take your love head-on!!

[ex_doubly406]

You still make it sound like we're going to end up fighting...

[But he's smiling as he picks up her hat and sets it back on her head.]

Either way I'll treat you to something. Oh, but there's a new store I want to drop by too!

[jitensha]

A new store? [ about to protest the very idea of fighting after a confession like that, she's effectively distracted, tapping the brim up to peer at him. ] What kind of store is it?

[ex_doubly406]

A new sports store! I heard they're having an opening sale this week!

[jitensha]

Really??

[ wow, she sure lit up fast. In fact, she's already making motions for the door. ] Then we should hurry! The good stuff usually goes first!

[ex_doubly406]

[Only Makoto would get this excited about going to see a new sports store.

So he'll only be trailing slightly behind as he gets his stuff together, and yes he'll be buttoning up his shirt properly.]

Don't worry, we'll walk fast!

[jitensha]

[ his hand is hers once he gets his jacket on, but she'll be patient. ]

No running?

[ SHE'LL... BE PATIENT... ]

[ex_doubly406]

[She's going to have to be patient for a while longer because once they get out he still needs to lock the place up.]

You mean all the way there? That's too much!

[BE... PATIENT...]

[jitensha]

Maybe a brisk jog, then!

[ she's so cheerful. ]

[ex_doubly406]

[B-Brisk jog...]

You're really excited about that sale.

[jitensha]

I'm really excited to go with you! The sale's just a bonus.

[ex_doubly406]

[Oh. The first thought that pops into his head is that she's cute. The second is that he should kiss her for that.

Which he does, because he's in love and she's cute.

Of course that doesn't necessarily mean he's going to jog all the way to the store. He probably will though, if she wants to.]

[jitensha]

[ in an astounding turn of events, Makoto doesn't drag Kise at full speed to the store. Most likely because he kissed her and she has to take some time to calm her racing heart. She was finally starting to get used to it, and now that she truly, fully knows that he love her, it's such a shaky thrill that it feels just like they're at the beginning again.

Which is far from true, and she smiles to herself as she settles into a moderate pace. ]

We've really come a long way.

[ex_doubly406]

[And it seems like everything is falling in place because for once he doesn't misunderstand. Looking at her as he adjusts his gait to match hers, he can tell she's not talking about physical distance.]

That's true. I wouldn't have guessed things would turn out this way.

[jitensha]

Yeah... I almost lost you as a friend, after all.

[ if she hadn't tried... she would have missed all of this. ]
