THE RISING OF HEROES

Chapter 4: Something Special Part 2

A/N: ❄️Hey there readers✌🏼🔥I know it has been a year or so and I am really sorry🥺. I took a job in South Korea and didn't have access to my Wattpad account. It also took me time to adjust to the lifestyle and now I figured out how to get back to writing here. So I have returned, and I will continue to work hard and share my stories with you🥺 Thank you again for being here and I will try to update weekly again❤️🤭So where we left off... our Tadashi was just so sweet in the last chapter, I hope you guys enjoy the second part of their first date where he continues to be an adorable boyfriend.

"Tashi, where are we going and why do I need a blindfold?" Clara asked, holding onto Tadashi as they drove through San Fransokyo. "It's a surprise Clara," he replied with a set destination in mind. She felt them come to a stop and heard him quietly speak to someone. When they were done talking Tadashi drove a little further before slowing down again, "Hey we're stopping, can I take off the blindfold now?" She asked as he came to a stop. Tadashi laughed, "No, have a little patience princess," he said, she blushed. "You tease me too much," she said crossing her arms, still sitting on his scooter.

"You enjoy it... Now, will you continue to stay there, or should I carry you?" He asked, "You wouldn't," she said, he smirked. She heard him come closer, "No way you're just pulling my leg," she said, he didn't say anything in response but picked her up bridal style. She gave a soft shout of surprise, "It makes things easier anyway. We only have just over half an hour until I take you home," he said. With a dark blush, she nodded. "Okay, I'm putting you down now. Give me one minute," he told her as he gently placed her down on her feet. She heard some shuffling before she heard him return to her, "...Alright, here we go," he said as he undid the blindfold.

She opened her eyes to see a little picnic set up near a bridge and as she looked around, she realised that they were in the S.F.I.T campus. "Aww Tashi it's so lovely, a picnic under the night sky and with a view of the campus. How did you pull this off?" She asked, "A gentleman never tells," he said making her laugh. "I don't want to bore you with the story, I can tell you if you want, but first let's sit down," he added and offered his hand, she took it but wasn't sure if she could eat what was in the picnic basket after their supper. "We had a pretty big supper Tashi, how can we have a picnic now?" She asked, he grinned at her, "Because that picnic basket has things that you would never say no to," he stated as they sat down on the picnic blanket.

He opened one side of the basket to reveal some of her favourite desserts. "Ahhh Tashi you're the best!" she excitedly exclaimed, "I know," he said with a look that made Clara giggle. They sat and spoke as they enjoyed their dessert, "This kind of tastes like it was made by aunt Cass but it's not the same as her usual," Clara said, "That's because I helped her, is it a bad different?" He asked rubbing the back of his head. "No, I love it. Is there anything you can't do Mr Perfect?" she asked playfully, "There are a few, like biology, but you help me with that," he answered. "I try," she said with a grin as she had the last pecan nut pie.

"Hey, Tashi is there something else in this basket?" She asked, he smiled, "Why don't you check," he answered. She looked at him quizzically but opened the other side of the basket to find a small dark green velvet box. It was a rectangular shape she looked up at him in surprise and he motioned for her to open it, "Wait 'til you see what's inside," he said. She opened the velvet box to reveal a beautiful silver charm bracelet with three charms already on it. "Wow Tashi, it's gorgeous," she said as she admired the bracelet with its charms. The details of each charm showed that they were custom-made, the first charm was the logos of the college stands they spent the most time at, S.F.A.I, S.F.I.T & S.F.M.I. The second charm had three tulips in a small bouquet, each one had a different colour gemstone, the colours, of course, were red, purple and yellow.

"This one is the day of the college meet and this one is for today," she said excitedly, and he nodded. "Does this one open?" She asked as she held the third charm, it was a locket half the size of her thumb with the design being their initials. He simply nodded in response again and she opened the locket. One side held a picture of them from when they were around ten years old, it was one of the first pictures they had. The other side was empty, "That space is for a picture we take tonight," he said as she looked at the locket. "The one we took earlier at the restaurant?" She asked, "Yes, or we could take one now," he suggested. "How about we take one anyway," she said, "Sure, but first let me put this on for you," he said. She held out her hand as Tadashi clipped on her bracelet. Clara took out her phone and they took a couple of pictures, the starry night sky and their picnic setting by the bridge made for the perfect background.

"So, on a scale of 1 to 10, how would you rate our first date?" He asked a while later, she shook her head, "I'm sorry Tashi..." she said trailing off. He looked at her worried, but relaxed when she began to giggle, "My rating is not on the scale," she said. "You scared me that time," he stated, "Did I give you any indicator that I was not enjoying my night?" She asked. "No, but..." he said but was interrupted by Clara, "But you're not sure, well then I should give you some reassurance," she said and leaned forward. Tadashi was surprised at first, Clara was not someone who usually took the lead she was generally really shy. He closed his eyes and enjoyed the kiss, but what made him happier was the fact that she was becoming more confident in herself and in their relationship.

"I wish this evening could last forever. It has been the best first date," Clara said as they pulled up her driveway, "I don't how else could I spoil you on our dates in the future," Tadashi said as they got off his scooter. Clara smiled up at him with a slight blush, "Whatever it is, I look forward to it Tashi," she said. "So do I, now before we go up, I want to know if I..." he started but became a bit flustered. He rubbed the back of his neck, 'Just go for it, don't overthink,' he told himself. He leaned forward and pecked her lips then kissed her forehead, "A kiss goodnight," he said to his blushing girlfriend. "I still need to get used to this," she said with a smile before wrapping her arms around Tadashi's neck. "Thank you again for tonight Tashi, it was amazing," she said and kissed his cheek.

It took the couple a while to fall asleep that night. He called her when he reached home, and they spoke about their date as well as their upcoming plans until Clara began falling asleep on call. What made Tadashi smile was her protests about being awake even though he could hear the sleep in her voice. He couldn't wait to treat her again; little did he know that she had already been planning to treat him for his birthday with some help from her parents and aunt Cass.

A/N: Alright that was their date, and I hope you all enjoyed it🤭Next chapter will also be focused on them, it will be how they planned each other's birthdays. After that we will be getting back on track with their lives. For now, I shall say goodbye and will be here again next week🥰❄️Take care my readers✌🏼🔥
