Chapter 7: The Date

Chapter 7: The Date

Rin's POV

Today was the day. Len had asked me out to have a date with him today! I’m so excited. I’m waiting for him to text me...

        Bzzz! My phone vibrated. I hurriedly opened my phone, seeing I had received a text from Len-kun! I happily texted back.

        Time to go to the ice cream shop! I had to look my best for Lenny~.

        Dashing through my closet, I picked out a cute yellow, long top with denim shorts and leggings underneath. I put on a few accessories: my bow (duh!), two bracelets on my right wrist, and a purple watch on my left. I put my necklace from Miku on (she’s such a pain at times, but she’s really sincere). I combed my hair to make sure it was perfect.

        All right! I’m sure I looked cute that day!

Len was waiting for me outside the ice cream shop. I gasped at his outfit. He wore a hoodie with jeans and converse shoes. His messy hair accommodated his outfit perfectly! He did it just for me!

        I smiled nervously and took a deep breath. It’s only a date. It’s not going to kill you! Just be yourself!

        I walked up to him and grasped his hand. “You look really cute today,” he told me.

        “You too.” I walked into the ice cream shop with him following.

        An employee waved at us. “Hello!” he said.

        “Yo, Kaito!” Len waved at the dark-blue-haired boy.

        Kaito glanced at me, to Len, back to me, and back to Len. “Your girlfriend?” he casually asked.

        “You know it,” Len said.

        “What will it be?” Kaito asked me.

        “I’d like a double ‘Orange Paradise’ please.” I love oranges!

        “A ‘Banana Boat’. You know me.” Len smirked.

        “Coming right up. Go sit down,” Kaito said.

        Len grabbed my hand and led me to a table.

        “So, um...” Len looked down and blushed. “I-I want to know i-if you like me...” he stammered.

        I stared at him icily. Len looked down at his shoes helplessly.

        “Of course I do! What kind of question is that?!” I winked at him.

        Len jerked his head up. “Really?” His expression softened. He gave a sigh of relief. “I’m happy to hear that.”

        “Even if you are a pervert,” I murmured.

        “Hey!” Len protested. “Miku opened the door, okay?”

        “But you’re the one who saw me.” I smirked.

        Kaito approached our table, carrying a tray with our ice cream on it. He placed them in front of us and walked away.

        We started eating, but I still felt slightly uneasy. Trying to eat ice cream while a boy you like is right in front of you? Easier said than done!

        The door to the ice cream shop swung open loudly. A girl with long silver hair and bloodred eyes stood there, scanning the shop. When she saw Len, her eyes lit up and she rushed over.

        “Len-kuuuuuuun!” she shrieked. Ow, my ears!

        I tilted my head. “Who are you?”

        She glanced at me. “Oh, I’m Tei. And you are?”

        “I’m Rin Kagamine. It’s good to meet you,” I said.

        “Yeah, uh-huh.” She waved her arm distractedly at me.

        I frowned. Her eyes were set on Len.

        “E-excuse me, Tei, but you interrupted my date.” Len narrowed his eyes at her, frowning.

        She gasped. “A d-date?!” She immediately dashed out of the shop.

        I glanced over at Len. He was infuriated. “She’s always following me around! It’s annoying! What do I have to give for her to leave me alone? She’s like a crazy, love-driven stalker!” he fumed.

        I think that’s exactly what she is, based off of her reaction of seeing Len and I on a date.

        We finished our ice cream and ended the date on a sour note.
