His Blossom (AMBW)

𝙰𝚗𝚘𝚝𝚑𝚎𝚛 𝚋𝚘𝚍𝚢

We arrived at the restaurant about thirty minutes later. It was beautiful with black exterior and interior. Kenji and I walked to the back, following the waitress. There sat Emica, Dai, Suki, Gemki, Ayaka, Rico, and another unknown girl.

"Aye!" Suki smiled, everyone else turned to see us.

"Late asses." Emica rolled her eyes.

"It's his fault." I smiled, sitting down next to Kenji.

"Kenji and Alex, this is my girlfriend, Ema." Emica smiled.

"Hi." I shook Ema's hand. "I'm Alex."

"Hi," She smiled. "Nice to meet you."

I was blessed to have them all speaking English. I was working on my Japanese, but lord did I struggle. I sat back in my seat, looking around, staying silent as everyone conversed.

"こんばんは、私はあなたを何を得ることができますか?" The waitress walked up.

Everyone started to order their food. Kenji turned to me. "What do you want to order?"

I shrugged. "Just get me whatever you're having and white rice too."

"焼き鳥、天ぷら、もち米の2つ注文が欲しいです." Kenji spoke.

I don't know why, but for some reason I felt odd. Uneasy. My stomach twisted and turned. I guess I zoned out, when Kenji tapped my shoulder, I jumped and stared at the food before us.

"Are you okay?" Kenji asked. "You haven't touched your food and you've been quiet this whole time."

I rubbed my neck. "Yeah. Sorry, I'm just tired."

I grabbed my chopsticks and started to eat my food. I couldn't wait to get to the club. I needed a drink... or four.

Emica turned to me. "Alex, have you ever been clubbing?"

I shook my head. "Just house parties."

"Are you a heavy drinker?" Ema asked.

"I'm not a lightweight," I smiled. "But the heavy drinking depends on how I'm feeling."

"So how much you drink if you're happy?" Suki butted in.

I shrugged. "I've only drank like three times. If I'm happy, just a splash. If I'm mad, I drink a lot. Like a lot. I know the consequences, but I don't care."

"You better keep her happy, Kenji." Riko laughed.

"I always do." Kenji wrapped his arm around me, kissing my cheek.

The club was very nice. As soon as we got there, Ema, Emica, and I went into the crowd and started dancing. There was a VIP section that they usually stayed in, but we wanted to get turnt first. Ema and Emica were cool, I could see a long friendship sprouting. It wasn't awkward when dancing with them even though they were dating. I didn't feel like a third wheel at all. After about ten minutes of that, we went into the VIP section to get some drinks. I took two shots to relax a bit more. I sat down a bit out of breath from dancing. Kenji sat next to me.
