Chapter 2172: I want to do something more
Haru and Hanayo decided to have a quick lunch at the family restaurant while talking to each other regarding what they would do today.
Even if Hanayo was shy with the thought of going on a date with Haru, his presence might be the only male besides her father that she could talk to normally and happily. She might be nervous, but she was also excited.
Frankly, Haru thought to have a normal date with Hanayo by going to the arcade, karaoke, and visiting an illumination show. After all, this was their first date, and there was no need to do something adventurous. Stability was the best, and accumulating a good point step by step was how someone could get girls.
There was no need to be in a hurry, and with their relationship, if he used a lot of money directly, it would scare Hanayo.
Having a normal date in a normal place was something that he should do.
Still, considering what Hanayo loved, it might be better to bring her to an idol performance or go to the rice specialty stores since those things were her favorite things. However, it wouldn't be romantic, and who would bring their partner to an idol performance or a rice specialty store for the first time?
So after a quick lunch, they played at the arcade for a while and sang karaoke together.
It might be Hanayo's first time on a date, but strangely, why wasn't it that much different from playing with a friend?
Still, Hanayo must also admit that it was so nice to go out with Haru since she had never been nervous, and it was so comfortable to stay with him, but there was something that she needed to ask.
"Haru."
"Hmm?"
"Are we going on a date?"
"Yeah." Haru looked at Hanayo weirdly and asked, "You don't think that we're on a date."
"Ugh... but I don't feel that we're going on a date at all!" Hanayou couldn't help but say.
"Oh?" Haru looked at Hanayo with interest and asked, "How is the date in your mind?"
"We - Well..." Hanayo's face quickly turned red when she was asked that question since she knew that her mind wasn't pure. In her mind, when two people had a date, they would hold each other's hands, then kiss!
Still, Hanayo was surprised by how bold she was.
However, if Haru knew what Hanayo was thinking, then he wouldn't be surprised since the quietest had always been the lewdest.
Hanayo might be the shyest among the members of Muse, but at the same time, she was the one who was the most curious about love.
"Do you want to hold hands?" Haru asked.
"....."
It was winter, and the temperature was cold, but when this question fell, Hanayo suddenly felt that she was in the summer.
"Hol - Holding hand...!?"
If it was before, Hanayo had never thought such a thing, and she might even pass out when she thought about holding hands with a guy. However, her best friend, Rin, told her how great it was to fall in love.
Among all the members of Muse, the relationship between Rin and Hanayo was the best, considering they were childhood friends.
However, after Rin became Haru's woman, Hanayo noticed the change in Rin, and personally, she could see Rin became even girlish, and the short hair that Rin had always maintained slowly became longer. She could also see how Rin was always happy, which made her wonder how it felt to be in love, especially when she saw the big change in her best friend.
Because of her best friend's story, Hanayo became full of expectations of love, but since there was no other male other than Haru and her father, she could only use Haru as her imagination project, wondering what would happen if they went on a date.
Personally, Hanayo loved this date with Haru, but she knew that she might be greedier than she had thought.
"Ye - yes."
Haru smiled and held Hanayo's hand without hesitation.
They walked on the street as they watched the illumination at night.
'It feels warm...' Hanayo thought with a smile.
"Hanayo, how about we get that?" Haru said as he pointed at the truck that sold baked sweet potatoes.
"Um!"
It was something cheap and wasn't as stylish as those foods in the cafe, but when Haru gave the baked sweet potato to Hanayo's hands, it felt so warm.
The temperature of the baked sweet potato was hot, but it was nice to hold it during winter. However, what made her warm was her care for Haru to her, and she might not forget the sweetness of this baked sweet potato for her entire life.
They walked together while eating the baked sweet potato as they talked together.
Their conversation was fun, but fun times couldn't continue forever, and Haru sent Hanayo back to her house.
Haru could see Hanayo's reluctant expression and said, "We have arrived."
"Um." Hanayo nodded with downcast eyes, showing how depressed she was. She thought about going back, but somehow she felt reluctant. She also thought that they might have kissed before the end of the date, but they had only held each other's hands. Even though she didn't mind, she wanted something special for her first date, something that she couldn't forget, which was a kiss.
"Hanayo."
"Yes?" Hanayo looked at Haru curiously, but then she could feel his hand holding her hand tenderly, and he stared at her lips, which made her shy.
"See you," Haru said with a smile, then let go of Hanayo's hand.
"........."
Hanayo was disappointed and wanted to say something, but in the end, she couldn't, so she could only nod. "Yes, see you, Haru..." She left reluctantly, but then her hand suddenly grasped.
"Sorry, but I feel that something is lacking if we just end our date like this."
"Eh?"
Hanayo was surprised, especially when her waist was hugged.
Haru could feel how soft Hanayo's body was and wanted to hug her tighter, but in the end, he held it. "Hanayo..."
His deep voice was full of desire which made her blush.
"Haru..."
They stared at each other for a moment before Haru moved closer, causing Hanayo to become shyer.
Hanayo wanted to say that it was too early, but when Haru was right in front of her, she couldn't say anything and accepted his kiss easily.
They parted lips shortly after as they enjoyed their first kiss.
"Can I kiss you again?" Haru asked.
"......."
Hanayo blinked her eyes and thought that this guy was too shameless, right?
Still, Hanayo nodded shyly since it felt nice.
