Character(s): Ayame Natsuri & Ren Yukio Time: 1:00 pm Location: Student Lounge
She sighed as she sunk into the chair, holding the replaced script like a faceted jewel. If anything happened to this new one, the teacher would definitely take her head right off her shoulders. Ren was supposed to be there in a few minutes. Supposed to. So far, there was no sign of him.
Somehow, she knew he'd show up. After reconciling and talking (or crying) things out, she began to trust him more. Turning her head to look out the window, she rested her cheek against the back of the chair, and waited. She began tapping her fingertips across the stack of paper, matching the rhythmic beating in her chest, getting faster, and faster

"Sorry I'm late," Ren sighed as he placed his bag down on the couch infront of her. "Mmm, I'm not too late am I?" He laughed as he took the script out of his bag and threw it on the desk. "What's up with you? You're pale." He tilted his head as he scratched the back of his head, "Ah! I memorized all my lines." He smiled proudly.
He was talking so much, and he even weirded himself out. But that didn't matter. What did matter, though, was the fact he was with Ayame. And that made his day.

She turned her head when she heard him walk in, and smiled as she sat up. "What's up with you? You're pale." His look of concern was foreign. Was she pale? Nerves, naturally.
"I'm fine, don't worry about it." she said, opening her script to the first page. "If you've really got this memorized, then we should get moving, huh?" She stood up and walked past him, taking off her blazer.
"So, you've got the first line don't you?"

"Yup." Ren said as he stood up as well and took off both his bow tie and blazer - feeling more comfortable already. As he stood beside her, he spotted a couple kissing.
"Happy Kissing Day, Darling~" Ren's eyes widened - he felt too awkward. "Kissing day?" he thought to himself, "That's cheesy." He probably wouldn't feel as awkward if the ideas in his head would stop popping up. He smirked. The sudden desire to tease Ayame was overwhelming, so he gave it a go.
"Ayame," He said quietly as he leaned in and kissed the girl on her cheek.
"Happy kissing day."

Ayame was typically totally oblivious to what was going on, and nearly jumped when she felt Ren's lips on her cheek. She reached up, and touched her cheek, her heart beating a million times a second. "R-Ren..."
Holding her breath, she turned and looked at him, watching the red in his face deepen, feeling her own face do the same. She gulped nervously, and took a step closer to him. He still seemed so far away. Trying not to faint or trip, she got as close as she could to him, and got on her tiptoes, and kissed his cheek in return.
"H-Happy Kissing Day to you too." she whispered.

Ren smirked as he touched the cheek Ayame kissed - "I didn't think you'd do it back," Ren said as he laughed. "I'd expect a punch or two from a girl like you." If he didn't have the self control he did now, he would be blushing like crazy. He cleared his throat and tried to put what just happened behind them -
"Alright. Your line." He said as he was still touching the cheek that she kissed.

"I'd expect a punch or two from a girl like you."
The smile on her face curled into a smirk. Well, that neutralized most of the awkwardness. "That could be arranged, you know." she said, sticking out her tongue.
"Alright. Your line." he said, his hand on his cheek. He had the same stupid look on his face that she had.
She took a breath and opened the script, and began spitting out all the horrible cheesy lines that resurrected their friendship just a few days ago. This time last week, they were yelling at each other, and now... it felt like she was dreaming.

Ren was amazed at the fact she nailed all her lines correctly. "Impressive," Ren sighed as he said his lines now. "God," he thought as he was getting frustrated more and more after each word he said. "I can't believe I'm doing this," he muttered after he finished reciting each line like instructed.
"....Hey, Ayame." He said with his hand over his mouth. "Are you still going to leave me alone after this play..?"

"Would it kill you to not whine after every line, Ren? You can't do that during the performance." With every word, he sounded more pained, almost like a broken radio. These lines weren't that bad were they?
He was silent for a minute.
"....Hey, Ayame." He said with his hand over his mouth. "Are you still going to leave me alone after this play..?"
Her eyes widened instantly. So that's what he was so bothered about. "I... I guess. If you still want me to, I understand." she mumbled. Her voice slowly began to shake. "That was the deal."

"NO!" Ren shouted louder than intended while grabbing onto her shoulder - "I-i mean.." Ren covered his mouth again. "Never mind. Do whatever the fuck you want." Ren said bluntly as he grabbed his blazer and bow tie and headed for the door -
"Do you really want to..?" Ren said as his back was turned.

"Never mind. Do whatever the fuck you want."
The only time he really sounded upset was when she talked about leaving him alone. So... then... this wasn't what he wanted? It was too late now, he was already gathering his things, heading for the door--He stopped suddenly.
"Do you really want to..?" he asked.
She smiled sadly and walked up behind him, and put her arms around his waist. "No," she mumbled, putting her cheek against the middle of his back the same way she did after their supposed date. "I'd rather not." She tightened her grip around him. "You don't...want me to leave you alone, do you?"

Ren's eyes widened as he felt her arms go around his waist. He was blushing uncontrollably and stared at his feet. "....N..no..." Ren mumbled quietly as he put his hands over hers. "You're the only person I want to be around. How could I want that?" He smiled as he gripped her hands tighter.

She blushed at the soft feeling of his hands over hers, and she hugged even tighter. "You're the only person I want to be around. How could I want that?"
Her face reddened again, and she buried her face against the warmth of his back. "'Am I dreaming?'" she asked, quoting the play, her voice muffled by the fabric of his shirt. "'If I'm dreaming, don't wake me up.'"
A poorly written play never described a moment better.

Ren started laughing, "You would say those lines." He grabbed her hand and kissed it gently. "Thank you, Ayame." He said while smiling, "If it weren't for you, who knows where i'd be." He laughed while still holding her hand, "I was so lost without you and Yousuke."

Turning her head to make herself more audible, she smiled, and blinked, and a tear fell from both eyes. "Well, you're found now. And we won't let you get lost ever again." She let go of him, and took his hand. "I promise."
She picked up his script. "So should we try this again?"
