The Dragon Empress (Un-edited ver)

Part 9

"Ok i'll be right back, I told Ryuga I would get him some coffee, he likes plain black coffee, it's gross." I told Madoka when it was 3:25, "Wow, it sounds like Ryuga has a great taste for coffee." she said sarcastically. I went and ordered Ryuga's coffee. "He should be here soon." I said to myself. When i walked back over to our table, ryuga was sitting in my chair and waiting for me, Madoka must have gone to the bathroom or something. "Hey you took my chair." i said smiling at him. He raised his eyebrows "I did, what are you gonna do about it." I handed him his coffee and pulled another chair up. Madoka walked back to our table, "oh hi Ryuga, have you come to take Madeline so soon?" she asked him, "Yea." he responded tiredly, "Ryuga did you get any sleep while I was gone, I was gone for about two hours." I worriedly asked him. I looked over at Madoka, she was trying not to smirk, I was sure she was making fun of us in her head. "Well I got about an hour, but for the rest of the time I just layed in bed." He told me, noticing my worried look, "Well," I said after a moment of silence, "we had better get going, I have training to do, thank you so much for meeting me Madoka!" I told her. "Your welcome, anytime, have fun training." she told me. "Good luck with Gingka!" I called back laughing "OK, have fun on your next date with Ryuga!" She yelled getting back at me. I just rolled my eyes, Ryuga gave me a confused look. "What was that all about, were you two just talking about boys?" "Well we did for a little, she has a crush on Gingka and she kept teasing me about you." I said, faking being sad. He put his arm around me and took a sip of his black coffee, "How is it?" I asked him. "It's very good, it will wake me up, wanna sip." he handed me the cup, I took a sip, "Ah it's so strong. I don't like it at all! How do you like that?" I said making a disgusted look, "I don't know, I like a strong cup of coffee." He told me with a smile.

We got in the car and he started driving, but we were not going towards the dark nebula's headquarters. "Where are we going Ryuga?" I questioned, he smirked, "Well I realised that I was too busy lately and haven't seen you much, so I am taking you to get some ice cream." "But-but, you-" "No, I am taking you out for some ice cream, I did rest and I have coffee, don't worry about me, I want this, ok?" "Ok..." I said, lovingly putting my head on his shoulder, and I started blushing. I had missed being with him so much.

We got to the ice cream place, he ordered my favorite kind of ice cream, strawberry and chocolate, and we sat down. He picked up my spoon, took a bite of the ice cream, "hey!" i said. he smirked at me and got some more, but this time he moved it so I would take a bite, I opened my mouth, he put it in, and i bit down, enjoying the yummy ice cream. Ryuga smiled at me, "Do you like it?" "Yes, it is very delicious." I responded with a smile, "I love your smile, it makes me smile, which to others is a rare occasion unless it's a smirk." He confessed, his eyes were soft, and a light blush dusted his cheeks. "Thank you." I said, blushing hard and I turned my head away, but his hand brought me back to look at him, "Madeline, I love you," he admitted, feeding me another bite of ice cream, "I love you too Ryuga," I told him back.

We finished our ice cream, and headed home it was now 4:30. I did some late night training with Ryuga and went to bed. "Good night Madi, I hope you sleep well." Ryuga said, giving me a hug and a kiss to my head.

I heard a knock at the door, it was my new Dark Nebula friend, Kat, "Hey Madeline!" She said walking into my room, "Hey Kat, how's it going?" I was doing my hair, getting ready for my date with Ryuga, He had told me to be ready by noon. "Good, why are you dressing up?" "Ryuga said he would be taking me out today, it's been awhile since he and I have gone anywhere together." "Wait, you're the one who is dating Ryuga?" she asked surprised, Kat was a new member to the dark nebula, so she did not know about me and Ryuga. "Yes, I am, and I can't wait. He has been so busy lately so I have not seen him much." I said, putting a bobby pin in my hair. "Hey, Kat, can you pick out a dress for me to wear please." I asked her pointing to the closet. "Sure, of course," she started going threw my clothes, she pulled out a dress, the top part was a sparkly blue and the bottom was white, "Wow" Kat said, "It's so pretty!" "Thanks, I got it while shopping with Madoka. I put the dress on, it went down to right above my knees. "It looks great on you Madi!" Kat said. "Thanks!" I heard another knock at the door, I went and answered it. Ryuga stood there, wearing a nice shirt that matched my dress, which was completely unplanned for. He looked at me "Wow Madeline, you look amazing." he said looking amazed, i blushed "thank you, look were matching!" I laughed, "yes we are aren't we." He gave me a warm smile. "Wow I have never seen you smile Ryuga." Kat said. "Well Madi makes me smile." He said in response. That just made me blush more. "HEY GUYS!" we all turned to see Yu walking and eating ice cream. Yu was one of the ones I hung out with while Ryuga was training. "Hi Yu!" I exclaimed, "Why do you look so nice Madi?" he asked me. "I am going to hang out with Ryuga." "You have to get all fancy just to hang out with him?" "Well, Madi and I are going out to a nice restaurant so we are all dressed up." Ryuga said and put his arm around me. "Are you ready?" Ryuga asked me. "Yup!" he wrapped his arms around my neck, this surprised me, then pulled away. I felt something cold on my neck, I looked down, he had put a necklace on me, it was a dragon. "Do you like it?" he asked me, "Ryuga it's beautiful, thank you!" I said jumping into his arms. "Your welcome, i'm glad you like it." he gave me a kiss on my cheek, and everyone was staring at us.
