"Um, Isuzu?", asked Seiya, looking at his girlfriend leaning against the wall next to the door with her. "What's with that pose?" "What, you mean this? Is something wrong with it?", asked the girl with an uncharacteristic smirk. "It's a little masculine, is all."
"Is it now?", said Isuzu, raising her arm to show her holding a boxed lunch.
"You brought me lunch?" "Just a friendly little gesture." Seiya raised his eyebrows. "You don't have to say friendly, you know. We are dating, remember." "I do." Isuzu took a seat in front of Seiya's desk, and they enjoyed a lunch together.
. . .
Seiya had just finished reviewing one off the park's performances and was walking along before he saw a figure approach him from his peripheral vision.
As he turned his head, he was pushed up against the wall, and a hand slammed beside his head.
"Hey there, cutie", said the figure, revealed to be Isuzu.
Seiya was blushing a bit. As a narcissist, he's always seen himself as beautiful and drop dead gorgeous, but cute? That was a new one. "Have any plans?" "Not sure. Besides the errand I just ran, there hasn't been much going on." "Then how about we go take a walk. Just the two of us." "Um, I don't know, I think I have some work to..." "It can wait", said Isuzu, holding her curled finger under Seiya's chin. "Right now, I just want to be with this handsome face."
The young man smirked. "Well, when you say something like that, then I'd hate to disappoint."
The couple joined hands and walked together.
. . .
"Okay, this seems a little easy", said Isuzu, putting down a book on her desk. She took her notepad and wrote down something. "This could work. Alright, just have to wait for tonight."
Isuzu put her things back in her bag and walked off, not knowing her boyfriend was just about to stop at her spot.
He noticed her bag, and peeked in. "Wait, is that..."
Seiya, letting his curiosity take over his morals, reached into the bag and pulled out what was inside.
"Shojo manga?" He skimmed through the pages, and saw a familiar picture. "This was what Isuzu did", he said while looking at the panel of a man cornering a girl to a wall. The brown haired man saw the notepad too, and took that out as well. "She said the exact same things. I can't believe it."
Seiya put the things back in the bag, and ran off to find his girlfriend.
. . .
As Isuzu was walking, she heard the sounds of footsteps rapidly walking up to her. "Isuzu." "Yes?" "I found your bag", said Seiya. "Oh. Okay."
"You misunderstood. I found your bag." Isuzu tilted her head. "I don't think I know what you mean."
"I think you do. I mean, did you have pleasant dreams?" Isuzu froze. She knew those words.
She knew them very well.
"Hey, I..." "Wrote those in your notepad. I read it. And I never knew you were into shojo manga. Care to explain?" Isuzu blushed.
"I... wanted to flirt with you. Make you find me attractive. I read those manga, and thought that..."
"Oh, my dear Isuzu." Seiya took the girl's hands. "You don't need to be flirtatious just to get me to like you. I fell for the strong and tough Isuzu Sento. I'd give anything I have just to make sure you never change."
Isuzu was flustered now. "Also, in those manga, it was the guy doing the things. Speaking of which..."
Seiya curled his finger and put it under Isuzu's chin, and smirked cockily.
"You have very beautiful eyes."
Isuzu was flustered. But she was also satisfied now, because this was better than when she did it. She then felt her lips receiving a kiss. "You know, you are acting a lot like those shojo manga girls. It's quite adorable."
Isuzu playfully smacked Seiya's chest, and took his hand as they walked further on together.
. . .
Seiya looked at Isuzu's bag, which she put on the couch of his living room, and noticed something in it. "More shojo manga? She must really like these."
He took one out and gave it a read, before widening his eyes at the pictures he saw.
"This is a doujin!"
He looked at the panel saw a girl calling the guy from the hall, luring him out.
"Seiya~." The young man turned and saw Isuzu sticking her head out, gesturing him to come to her. She seductively walked in reverse to the bedroom.
Seiya looked back at the doujin. "Screw it", he said, and followed his girlfriend.
