I Don't Understand

Well He Tried

~Alfred's P.O.V~
Kiku got the wrong idea... Dammit! I didn't mean to make him think I wanted that. (Alfred, you're the one with the wrong idea- Alfred: Shut it! I didn't know at the time!)... I don't want him to stop being my friend.. I sighed. I'll go on a date with him, but I have to be sure he has a good time, otherwise he'll go against me... Damn.. well. It seems I'll have to make sure he has a great time! I could show him all the great stuff about America! Or I could take him to something related to his culture. I blushed hard suddenly. '.. A-A date.. I-I'm going on a date with Kiku..' I shook my head quickly. "I-its just a hangout! That will be treated as a date.." Kiku doesn't open up to people much at all.. If he figures out I didn't mean an actual date, he'll get so embarrassed he'll hate me! Japan probably has a lot of expectations and standards, so I'll have to put my game face on.. yeah.. yeah! I'll treat him better than anyone else has! Going out with my dude once or twice can't be that bad! It'd be fun to get closer to him. We can become the best of friends. I got off the couch and walked over to my room where my laptop was located. I wanted to see some good places I could take him nearby... McDonalds won't pass as a worthy place for him.

I sighed as I put the last sheet of paperwork to the side. There is so much work to do all the time. Though, there's never any reason why I shouldn't or couldn't get it done. Work is a core part of everything. There's no way to get out of it because if you try, only more will come your way. I got off my chair to walk to the kitchen. A basket catching my eye, it was filled with fruit. Why not? It isn't a meal, but it will hold me over. I grabbed an apple and took a bite. It was much sweeter than I had expected it to be, causing me to most likely have a repulsed expression on my face. I slowly got used to it and took another bite. Sighing once more, I thought of America... Well not America, but Mr.Jones. I do not think it would be all that horrible to spend a day with him, but it does worry me on some level. He is loud and dangerous... More reckless than anything though, but I think that the more I convince myself it will be bad, the more I'll actually feel that way when it happens. I wondered when I should call him and tell him I'm finished with my work. Though I considered to never call and wait for him to forget, I knew he'd confront me about it eventually and that's something I knew I couldn't stand. Not only do I not like socialization, but I believe I hate when people confront me about my odd behavior of blowing them off. Mr.Jones has a good memory when he's looking forward to something. It's quite strange, but in a way it is very much understandable. Biting again, I had wondered how it would turn out when I would call him and I would go over. Would it be fun? Would it be a trap? Would it be as horrible as I had thought? Maybe. I will never know until I actually go ahead to see him. Looking back at the apple, I notice it was quite small... Pretty obvious though. I had only taken a few bites and it was already gone to the core. I put it in the trash can and grabbed my phone. I did tell him I'd call him when my work was finished... Taking a deep breath, I typed in his number.

I was writing a couple addresses down on a piece of notebook paper I would take on the date with me so I'd know where to take Kiku. Alike how I had been the past couple hours-- no, rather like how I'd been since the end of that meeting, I was smiling some with my face blushing slightly. I jolted when I heard my phone was being called. I was in my own little world imagining the 'date' when a loud ringing noise occurred. It was Kiku... I snatched my phone up and answered the call in a heartbeat. "H-Hey, dude! What's up?" "Hello, Mr.Jones.. I had just finished my work.. Considering if you still want to spend time with me; What would be a good time to come over?" "Of course I want you over! Any time is fine!""Is it really? I do not want to be bothersome. It is alright if you do not want me to come visit." Is he trying to get out of it or is he insecure? "No, it's fine, bro! Come on! Come over whenever you feel like it, I don't mind!" I smiled as I spoke through the phone. This'll be something to look forward to without a doubt! "Oh, that is good to hear.. Would Friday (It was Wednesday) sound alright?" Friday.. The day of freedom, fun and relief.. He does want to go on a date, doesn't he? Good, since I have it planned. "Yeah, that sounds great! Meet me at my place, maybe at noon or around there if you can! I have the day planned.""Oh, that is also good to hear.. That way we will not spend all our time discussing on activities..""Right!""Well... Goodbye, Mr.Jones, I will see you then." Putting down the phone, smiling.. This'll be fun.
