Narrator POV

As Asuna slowly sat up wiping her eyes, she looked around and realized she was in her room.

I didn't come up here. Did I?

She climbed out of bed and realized she was still wearing her clothes from earlier, or was it the day before? She glanced at her clock.

6:30pm

So at least it wasn't a school day.
She opened her door and walked down the stairs, towards the kitchen. She poured herself a glass of water and walked was about to walk to the back porch until she saw someone.

Her heart suddenly picked up, beating faster. She slowly crept towards the porch door. Pulling it back slowly and poking her head out to see who it was.

She couldn't stop herself from giggling, she had completely forgotten that Kirito was staying with her. She walked out closing the door behind her quietly, not wanting to disturb the raven haired boy.

She crouched down beside the chair he had fell asleep in and smiled.

She couldn't help but remember their days in Aincrad. How every morning she'd awake to the the some boy every morning. Peacefully asleep and his long lashes closed, strands of hair resting on the tip of his nose and over his eyes.

Which she brushed away every morning, longing to look at his peaceful and not to mention adorable face.

She leaned over and kissed his cheek, then sat down in the chair beside him and gazed out at the sky.

It was dusk now, so the sun had just begun to hide behind the trees and the sky had just changed from a bright blue to calming shades of orange and reds, with bright yellows.

It was getting chilly now, and Asuna was just starting to get the chills. She looked over at Kirito. Who was still fast asleep.

She didn't want to disturb him, but he'd catch a cold if he stayed out like that, he wasn't wearing anything but pants and a t-shirt after all, and fall was on it's way.

Asuna stood up and walked over to Kirito, shaking him lightly. His eyes opened slowly, blinking a couple times as he slowly looked around him then up at her.

"Mmmmm Asuna..? What time is it?" He asked still dazed, Asuna took out her phone and looked at the time. "It's about 7:20pm" she said putting her phone back in her pocket.

Kirito stretched out his arms and stood up. Smiling as Asuna. "I forgot where I was for a minute there" he said laughing after he said it.

Asuna only shrugged as he slid his hand into hers, locking their fingers together.

Kirito POV

I opened the door and held it for Asuna with one hand considering my other was locked with hers. Her hand is so soft and small, it's so easy to just grasp it in my hands.

After we both walked in, Asuna suddenly got really excited.

"What is it?" I asked her laughing myself, confused at how her mood has suddenly changed. Looking at her now, it's hard to believe that this prim and proper girl was once second in command in a huge organization.

Asuna looked at my, her eyes glowing with excitement. "I just got a idea!" She said happily. I raised and eyebrow and looked at her, waiting for her to explain her idea to me.

"Kirito, wanna have a sweater date?" I only looked at her with confusion. She sighed. "Do you not know what that is?" She asked me half whining. I only shrugged and looked at her blanky.

"A sweater date is when 2 people cuddle on the couch together with sweaters and a comfy blanket, they eat snacks and watch movies, it's fun!"

I smile and laugh. "Oh so that's what it is huh?" I can't believe how excited she got over that.

Asuna looked at me and pouted. "Have you never had one?" I shrugged again and shook my head. A sweater date? Who's ever heard of that?

"Alright let's do it then" I said smiling at her, clearly she wanted to do this and I was quite curious myself. She smiled and kissed my cheek.

"Alright I'm gonna go upstairs and get myself cleaned up. I've been in these clothes all day after all." Then she ran up the stairs quickly and I heard a door shut behind her.

I walk to my room and change into some plaid pants and a grey t-shirt. Them I grab a Black sweatshirt. Yea I know, not very original.

I pull it on and walk back downstairs to find Asuna in the kitchen making snacks in a silky red night down with a zip up white sweater. We both look at eachother and laugh. Old colours. Seemed to be a habit of ours.

Asuna POV

I look behind me to find Kirito in some blue and black plaid bottoms and a grey t-shirt with a black sweater. And I can't stop myself from laughing.

We both laugh together and  we find that we can't actually stop.

Once we finally are able to speak again. I pick up some of the snacks and pass him. "Kirito can you get the other snacks?" I ask and he nods, grabbing the sandwiches and the drinks. Then we both walk out to the living room.

Narrator POV

Kirito and Asuna both sat down on the couch and snuggled close while they buckets about what movie to watch.

Of course Asuna won the debate and they ended up watching a movie based on 2 people who were on different status in life, and fell in love.

They spent the night watching a lot of movies and talking, and snuggling. Until Asuna glanced at the clock.

"It's 1:00am!?" She said frantically and stood up. "Is it?"  Kirito asked clearly confused himself. Asuna picked up the plates and snacks and put everything away and came back to find Kirito at the stairs.

"Come on Asuna, it's late and we have school tomorrow." He said holding his hand out to her. She put her hand in his and they walked up the stairs and down the hallway in a comfortable silence.

Eventually they reached Asuna's room and she let go and was about to walk in before Kirito grabbed her hand and pulled her back towards him. He looked in to her eyes for a moment.

Then he put his lips against hers, kissing her lightly at first, but then with more passion the kisses got more intense and they used more force, until their lungs betrayed them and they broke for oxygen.

Asuna smiled and kissed him lightly one last time before stepping into her room and closing the door.

Kirito went in to his room and climbed into his bed, his put a finger to his lips that Asuna had kissed and couldn't help but blush. He smiled and pulled the covers up and turned out his light.
