Chapter 37 | Kiss, Kiss, Fall in Love!

~Kaoru's POV~

"Today's the day! Today's the day Kaobella will happen. We've gone over the plan, and we've gone over the possible outcomes. You're gonna go on that date, calm, cool, and handsome, and you're going to win her heart! Clear?" Hikaru told me the next day.

It was 6:30 at night and I was getting ready to go pick up Arabella for our date.

And, I was already sweating bullets.

I honestly couldn't be more nervous right now.

I nodded at Hikaru. "Y-Yes. Clear." I finally replied.

Hikaru nodded back. "Good! You better get going now. You look good, you feel good, and this whole thing will go good!" he said. "Before you know it, you'll be able to call Arabella your girlfriend, and Kaobella will officially be a thing!"

"I wouldn't go that far, Hikaru--that's only if this whole thing goes well and it depends on her answer." I said.

"Yeah, yeah, whatever! Now, go already!!!" Hikaru said as he ushered me out the doors and into our driveway where the limo was waiting.

"Bye, Hikaru! I promise I'll tell you how it went! You'll be the first to know!" I said as the driver opened the limo door for me.

"Good! Now, get going!" Hikaru said.

I got in the limo and the driver closed the door.

Then, he got in as well. "Where to, sir?" he asked.

"The Hashimoto residence." I said.

"Right away, sir." the driver said before we drove away.

~Arabella's POV~

I waited nervously at the front door.

Kaoru is supposed to be here soon to pick me up for our date.

Daniel waited next to me, also impatient. "When is he gonna get here? I can't believe you're actually going out with him!" he said.

"Daniel, I thought you wanted me to." I said.

"I kinda do, and I kinda don't! I mean... I'm just... worried... Don't let him hurt you, Arabella. Okay?" Daniel said.

I nodded and smiled. "Okay," I said. Then, I looked down at my outfit. "Do you think this is good? I picked this because I don't know where he's taking me--so I choose something kinda fancy, but not too fancy... Ya' know...?"

Daniel rolled his eyes. "For the thousandth time, you look FINE. He'll like it, trust me."

I smiled again. "Really?"

"Yes, really! I'm positive!" Daniel said, annoyed that I've been asking him the exact same question over and over again.

Suddenly, the doorbell rang.

I stiffened.

"Well, here's your prince charming, Arabella." Daniel said before he opened the door.

Kaoru stood in the doorway holding a bouquet of sunflowers.

I immediately smiled. "Kaoru! You look really awesome...!" I said.

Kaoru smiled back. "Thanks. And you look... Wow... Just... beautiful..." he said.

I blushed.

Then, he handed me the bouquet. "This is for you..." he said.

I took it. "Kaoru...! That's so sweet...! And... sunflowers...? I love sunflowers! They're my favorite... because they were my dad's favorite too..." I said.
