Maki placed one last plate into the dishwasher before closing it and turning it on. As she rose up, a pair of strong arms held her waist. "Kaito, what is it?" "I'm bored. I want to do something." "Then do something." "But I want to do something with you."
Maki turned around. "Okay, fine. What did you have in mind?" "I don't know."
The young woman sighed. "Then help me make dinner." "What are we making?" "Tempura."

As Maki took out the tools that were required to make the meal, Kaito turned on his phone and selected the music app. He pressed shuffle, and a song began to play that the couple recognized all too well.

"Maki, this is our song!"
Indeed it was. On their first date, the couple went to a restaurant where this very song played. They even had their first kiss during it. Since then, it has been dubbed "their song". Maki smiled at the memory.

Kaito walked over slowly then grabbed her hand and spun her around, just in time for the song's chorus to start. At first, she was surprised, but only for a second before she started dancing with her lover to the song. His hand was on her hip, while hers was on his shoulder. Their remaining hands were joined. They waltzed in rhythm with the song, enjoying the moment together. The created a space between them, until Kaito closed it by pulling Maki closer. The moved in circles around their little space, while Kaito waited for the song's ending to come. Maki's feet tapped on the floor, and her boyfriend joined in.
She stepped back a bit and swayed her hips, making Kaito blush. Once the song was about to reach its finale, the couple joined hands again. On cue to the final tune, Kaito dipped Maki downward, staring into her eyes.

"That's a new trick. Where'd you learn to do that?" "I have my ways", said Kaito, placing a quick kiss on Maki's lips. "So, we gonna make that tempura or what?" "If you let me stand up straight, yes."
Kaito pulled Maki up, but didn't let go of her hand. "By the way, you've got some moves, Makiroll." The young woman smirked and leaned close to her lover's ear. "Maybe after dinner, I could show you some other moves."
Kaito's legs then felt wobbly upon hearing that. Now he didn't want dinner anymore.
