A Teacher's Promise

Chapter 4

Haruka stood at the back of the school, waiting for a certain someone. She peeked around the corner, her eyes darting back and forth.

"You good?"

Haruka spun around, her eyes meeting her brown-haired friend's.

"Oh, hey Ayanokouji. You scared me," she said, sighing in relief.

"Sorry. Anyway, shall we go?" Ayanokouji said, walking ahead of Haruka. She followed behind, placing her purse on her shoulder.

"Are you ready for our practice date? I'll be testing you hard!" Haruka exclaimed, a fierce look in her eyes. Ayanokouji nodded, and they began walking to their first destination.

From afar, 3 peering eyes looked over them.

"Do you think they'll be okay?" Yukimura asked, dressed in eccentric clothes. With him were Sakura and Miyake, also in overbearing and clashing clothes.

"Yes, Yukimura, they're going to be fine," Miyake said, coming out from behind the wall.

"Why are we spying on them, anyway? It's just a practice date," Miyake said, pulling on his jacket. "And who chose these clothes? I may not be a fashion guru, but this looks horrible."

"I did." Yukimura proclaimed.

"... Never again." Miyake mumbled.

Timeskip

The duo were now in the heart of Keyaki Mall and went to the recent fashion store that had opened up. Haruka was extra excited to go in, while Ayanokouji walked in with less than a pleasured look on his face.

"Hey! Why aren't you more excited?" Haruka asked.

"I don't need any more clothes- "

"So? Act like you do! The number one advice for going out on dates is to act different to fit in with your partner. That'll be minus 1 point for you!" Haruka exclaimed, bringing out a notebook.

"One, that's very questionable advice. Second, you're taking notes?!" Ayanokouji exclaimed.

"Yep! Keep up, or you're going to get an F!" Haruka said, running into the store. Ayanokouji just sighed and followed her.

Meanwhile...

"Alright, coast is clear. Let's enter the store!" Yukimura exclaimed.

"... How are we going to hide in there?" Miyake asked. Sakura nodded, showing her confusion as well.

"Do you guys not shop? Just act like you're looking for good clothes. God knows you need it." Yukimura said, pointing at his partner's clothes.

"You picked these out..." Miyake said, on the verge of strangling Yukimura.

"Calm down, I'm sure he's joking," Sakura said, patting Miyake's back. The two followed Yukimura in, trying to catch up to the somewhat fast boy.

Back to Ayanokouji and Haruka

Haruka was looking through dresses, struggling to find the right one.

"Ugh! These don't match at all," Haruka said, hanging another dress on the rack. "Ayanokouji, what dress do you think would match?"

"Uh..." Ayanokouji said, scanning the room. He found a light pink dress and grabbed it. "Maybe this one?"

"Oooh, that's a good choice," Haruka said, pressing the dress against her body.

"Plus 2 points for you." She said, putting the dress in a bag.

"Now, where to next?"

"Maybe the burger place down the street?" Ayanokouji asked.

"Nice one! Plus 5 points for figuring out I was hungry." Haruka said, happily walking out the door.

'I just guessed...' Ayanokouji thought, helplessly following the girl again. After they walked up, the spying trio peeked out of the clothing stalls, with new outfits.

"Seems like it went smoothly..." Sakura said, finally starting off the conversation.

"Yeah. Onto the burger place!" Yukimura exclaimed, bolting out of the store.

"Wait, you can't leave, you haven't paid!" The store clerk said.

"Sorry, we'll bring them back later!" Miyake said, sprinting after Yukimura.

Ayanokouji walked into the building, seeing many students eating around them. There was some couples feeding each other, and he hoped Haruka didn't want to copy them.

"Hmm...what to get?" Haruka pondered, staring at the menu.

"I think I'm getting number 6 and a milkshake. What about you?"

"Um..."

'What should I pick? I've never been much of a burger guy...' Ayanokouji pondered.

"Number 3?"

"Interesting choice... Let's order!" Haruka exclaimed, taking his hand. It felt smooth and silky, almost like a mother's touch.

"Hello, what can I get for you today?" The cashier asked, her voice high pitched and friendly.

"I'll be having a number 6 with a milkshake, and he'll be having a number 3."

"Okay, who's paying?" She asked politely.

"Uh-"

"I'll pay." Ayanokouji said, handing the cashier his phone.

"Thank you, your food will be brought up to the counter in a bit." The cashier said, walking into the kitchen.

"Nice job, you didn't even think about paying. Some girls might not like that, but for me it was fine." Haruka blurted.

"Thanks." Ayanokouji said, taking a seat at the somewhat high table.

"You know, I've had a lot of fun while we were out here. I might even fall for you~" Haruka teased. Ayanokouji nervously laughed, not knowing if she was serious or not.

"Same, I really enjoyed this trip, Haruka." Ayanokouji said, smiling.

The two eventually got their meal, and ate almost like a happy couple.

"Those two do seem happy..." Sakura mumbled.

"Yeah, it's almost...scary how much they're connecting." Miyake commented.

"Shh, this is where it gets good!" Yukimura whispered loudly. Haruka held up a long fry, and held it out.

"Say ahh," She said, slowly moving it towards his mouth. Ayanokouji slowly took a bite, before eating it right out of her fingertips, leaving hot saliva on her hands.

"...You didn't have to do that much." Ayanokouji just looked at her confusingly.

"These two might actually be a couple at this point," Miyake said, staring intentively. Yukimura was sniffling in the back, wiping tears from his face.

"Why are you crying?"

"They grow up so fast," Yukimura said, randomly bringing out a tissue.

"You haven't even had a girlfriend yet!" Miyake exclaimed.
