Somehow, you managed to obtain your parent's permission to go out with the mysterious man when your parents could feel the person's sincerity from the letters you received!

You dressed properly for the date, thinking of this and that for that man that makes your heart race with his words every time you read his love letter, since he'll be calling your number soon.

Just then, you are receiving a phone call from a familiar phone number.

"No way!" you began to gasp in surprise, and stared at the phone.

- Reiji's POV -

It's a Valentine's morning, and he woke up extraordinarily early just for today.

Somehow, the brunette doesn't like his image to be ruined for being late for a date, especially when it's the cute girl that he wanted to date so much but he was being such a coward for not being dared to, he dashes into his little green car and speeds all the way to her doorstep after dressing up.

Right after parking his car properly, the brunette got out of his car, flicked open his handphone and dialed the familiar phone number while staring to her room's window.

"Ohayou~ My girl, it's your Rei-chan speaking here! " he chuckled softly after hearing her surprised voice, imagining her being flustered over the other side of the phone.

"Come downstairs when you are ready, ne?" He whispered gently, "Look right outside from your room's window, and you'll see me." 

And he continued staring towards your room's window.

- Reader's POV -

Kotobuki Reiji and you are both childhood friends. He used to care for you so much that you began to like him as days passed by. However, as soon as you realized that he became an idol, you kept your distance with him instead. Well, he should be having tons of girls to date in the showbiz anyway.

But right now, you won't want to care anymore, not after knowing that he's the one who wrote that pile of love letters to you to confess his feelings to you twice every month, you know that he's more serious than anyone else.

You stared out of the window with your tomato face, and quickly ran downstairs and opened the door.

Until the moment the brunette sees the familiar figure..

"Ohayo, Hime-sama ~" He smiled and threw his signature wink towards your direction, and immediately leaves a quick peck on your tomato cheeks.

You stoned right there, and certainly doesn't know how to respond towards the surprised action, and Reiji became even more daring that he carries you all the way towards his little green car. Ensuring that you are well-seated, he helps you to put on his seat belt and went back to the driver's seat.

"We'll go for a date~!" he smiles happily, and you are relieved that he is still retaining who he is for most of the time, only with... an additional bit of... sadness.

That's what you could see through his eyes.

You became curious, and you asked him about the things that happened for the past five years, and he tells you the entire story about him and Aine's, to a state that he almost wanted to cry, but he quickly got a hold on himself. 

"Let's forget about all these, right now, all I want is you, and you alone." He smiled, while reaching an arm to ruffle your hair gently.

Still... Your heart throbbed in pain for him.

"Don't feel bad, ne? (Your name)-chan? Or else Rei-chan would feel bad too. Let us just enjoy our date today!" he said. Then he plays relaxing music in his little car, hoping that you would calm down soon enough, all the way to a bento restaurant.

Reiji then holds your arm gently and both of you walks into the shop, and yelled "Tadaima!" loudly as if it was his own house, and you were surprised.

"Irrashaimase! Welcome to Kotobuki Bento Shop!" The staff said, "Ahh, Rei-chan! You are home!" 

Kotobuki...? Only then, you realized that you almost forgot about his family's shop.

"Kaa-chan, Nee-chan!" Reiji smiled happily while hugging his beloved mother and sister, then introduces you as his girlfriend, while you were blushing and bowing so formally that the ladies find you cute, and even told Reiji to treasure you as much he could. 

The two of you decided to spend time to make bentos and help out the store, and Reiji is constantly teaching you about the methods to cook this and that. 

Slowly hugging you from behind, he gently holds your hands, "You chop these like this, or you might be injuring yourself..." 

And once in a while he would leave a kiss on your cheeks, or planting a hickey on your neck. All you did was hitting him back while flustering like crazy, but Reiji went all fine with it and smiling happily as if nothing happened.

"Hmm, OK OK! This is perfect!" Reiji smiled happily, and the both of you washed your hands and tries to get some rest upstairs, but soon enough Reiji's mother asked the two of you to get more raw material outdoors, so you did, and Reiji happily drives you around for all the materials his kaa-chan needs.

The two of you shopped like a married couple with little arguments here and there, but Reiji is always being tolerating that he would laugh things off from time to time. Of course, with his outfit that disguises him perfectly, he wasn't recognised by anyone else.

"Nee, (name)-chan, you could be a good wife, really!" he smiles warmly, while making the payment towards the counter while you tries to check if you didn't miss anything, and flusters as he compliments you while showing you off to the world that you are officially his girl, then the two of you moved the bulk of stuff you bought to the little green car, and got into the car.

He slowly drives towards a gift shop and bought a silver necklace with your name and his name carved on the metal plate with a cute little heart shape, and ran all the way back to his car.

"Sorry for the wait, but (name)-chan, here..." He smiled as he puts the necklace over your neck, then leaned in for a hot kiss right away.

"Nnnh... Nn..."

And he pulled off gently. "(Name)-chan... Happy Valentine's Day. I love you, my girl. And from now on, Rei-chan will dote you like no other man would. "
