Summary:Nino could not decide on what to wear for the date, but he eventually finds one (also with the help of his sister).
 

Satoshi was quick on his feet as soon as he asked him to have the date right away. Nino, on the other hand, watched the student stress out on what to wear since he was wearing his school uniform. As Satoshi ran around his room thinking out loud, Nino suddenly had a good idea.

“Why don’t you get ready at your house and you come to pick me up?”

Satoshi abruptly stopped, a grin forming on his face. “Why didn’t I think of that?” The student continued to grin in such a creepy way he reminded Nino of the cheshire cat.

“Well get going! Time’s ticking.” With that said, Satoshi immediately grabbed his things and ran from his bedroom to the first floor, Nino closely followed behind.

“Goodbye kiss?” Satoshi asked when his body was halfway the front door.

Nino stuck his tongue out. “No~ We’re going to see each other anyways.”

“Oh yeah,” Satoshi smiled sheepishly, his cheeks turning a bright pink. “See you later, Kazu!”

“Bye...”

Once the front door closed, Nino regretted his idea when only a second passed; he already misses him. He should have lent him his clothes, but it would be better for Satoshi to use his own clothes and not his. Taking one last look at the door, he sighed before he headed upstairs but only to be stopped by his older sister.

“Nino,” She casually called out his name, though she had a look of suspicions on her face. “Are you and that Ohno kid together?”

Nino brought his chin up. “What’s it to you?”

“I’m just asking.”

“Well,” Nino then turned his head and moved to the right simultaneously to walk past her, “That’s for me to know and for you to find out.” As he walked towards his room, he heard his sister mumble “” shortly before he made it to his room.

As soon as the door closed, he stood in front of his closet, wondering what he should wear. However, he smelled something horrible and realized it was himself. “I should shower before I pick my clothes...” Nino mumbled to himself as he gathered fresh clothes to wear after shower...



Nino was finished picking out clothes right after Satoshi had texted him that their date would take place in the local aquarium at 1PM. He checked once more to make sure that it was the appropriate clothing just in case they watch a show: a clean white tee, a black and white polo tee, cargo shorts, and a fedora his sister suggested (she already knew about them by then). He wasn’t sure if the fedora went well with going to the aquarium, but as soon as he fixated the clothes together, he couldn’t help but he impressed. It looked a bit fancy, but what the heck. It’s his first date and he can do the he wants.

As soon as he was dressed, all the had to do was wait. And wait he did until the digital alarm clock besides his bed announced it was almost 1PM. For the first time in his life, he was nervous as that he chewed on his nails. What if Satoshi didn’t like his clothes, or what if he laughed at him? What if the whole world decides to ignore that he and Satoshi belong together? What if--

“Your boyfriends at the door,” Came his sister’s voice, causing his train of questions to disappear in an instant.

Nino took a quick glance at the clock and saw that it was exactly 1PM. Before he decided to meet with Satoshi, he exhaled and inhaled his breath nervously. “My first date,” he mumbled when he calmed down a bit and headed to the door. “With Satoshi...”

When his hand touched the doorknob, he opened it revealing an anticipated Satoshi. “Hi, Ka-- Whoa!”

Nino immediately hid behind the front door, blushing as he did so. “Do I look stupid?”

“No!” Satoshi shook his head, his hands grabbing Nino to (gently) pull him out from hiding. “You look amazing!”

Nino blushed. “So do you...”

He really did. Satoshi’s hair, unlike the flat style he has every day, was styled messily as if he shook, like a dog would, after showering; it also made the brown highlights pop out of his hair. He looked as if he was a face magazines would love to have.

His clothes were stylish as well, as if it came out of a fashion magazine. He had a gray shirt on, probably cotton or silk and a dark velvet vest topping it. He wore long, dark pants that his leather boots covered the ankle height. Seeing this, Nino couldn’t help but sigh in awe.

“What?” Satoshi backed away as well. “Do I look stupid?”

“N... not at all...” Nino replied, or whispered since he didn’t imagine Satoshi to be this stylish and good looking as .

“Well shall we get going?” He heard Satoshi asked him as he felt his hand on his back.

Nodding a silent yes, allowed Satoshi to guide him outside; he still couldn’t take his eyes off of Satoshi though...



Nino really has never been outside to experience what he had missed, especially since he was going out on a date with Satoshi. As they walked, every noticed them, and him as well. He heard most people who were nearby, whisper how the he and Satoshi look like idols or models out of the TV and magazines. Nino was glad for that, but he hated how they only noticed him when he wore good clothes. Either way, at least people noticed them.

The first thing Nino noticed, as soon as they entered the aquarium, was the sharks a few rows from the tropical fishes. “Wow!” Nino gasped as he basically glued his hands to the glass separating him and the sharks. “It’s scary, but it’s amazing at the same time!”

“Isn’t it?” Satoshi chuckled. “Is this your first time coming here, Kazu?”

He rapidly nodded his head in excitement. “Yes. It is!”

“I’m glad it’s your first, because that way I know it was with me.”

“Me too,” Nino agreed, his attention still on the roaming sharks. “I--”

Nino turned his head around, surprised that Satoshi had grabbed his hands impulsively. If he didn’t like him just like the past, he would have pulled right away; he didn’t.

“Can we hold hands?” Satoshi asked him, his eyes staring straight at his.

“Sure...” Nino nodded his head shyly.

“Good,” Satoshi sighed in relief, “I thought kissing you was the only way to touch you.”

Nino laughed, a good kind of laugh as he linked fingers with Satoshi. “I thought so too,” he mumbled, eyeing their hands in between. “Now take me somewhere fun. I wanna see more.”

With a laugh, Satoshi did as he was told, leading Nino to a bunch of confusing paths. At least he won’t get lost as long as Satoshi held his hands.
