Let's Spend This Right

"Si Wait!" I yelled running after him. Throughout his little silence treatment he had randomly gotten up from our table in the cafe and walked out. Now here I was chasing him almost tripping over my own feet.

"Can you hold on for a second!?" I asked in frustration. He didn't slow his pace down but I took a extra large step forward and managed to grab his lower arm, pulling him to turn towards me.

Si turned to me as I stared at him trying to catch my breath,"Can—we—talk—about this?" I said in between breaths.

"What the hell is there to talk about? You obviously don't think I'm capable of living out alone and you think I can't take your pain away" he snapped about to turn around but I kept my grip hard on him.

"That's not true! You've done so much for me, more than anyone else. And I know your capable of being out there alone. I'm just worried okay? I care about you. If something happened while you were living alone—"

"Nothing is going to happen Kiara. Have faith in me. Here's a word you never hear me say, please."

I stared at him surprised.

Gee, what was I thinking? He did have a point. I'm being too crazy with this topic. I need to stop worrying. This isn't like me.

"Okay, I'm sorry" I apologized releasing my hands from him.

Si frowned,"It's okay. Let's not focus about it. Let's go on a date."

A date? "Like right now?"

"Right now"he confirmed.

I couldn't help but let out a heart felt laugh shaking my head,"Wow, well what do you suggest then?"

He smirked, wrapping his arm my waist. I let out a small gasp when he pulled me closer to his chest with our lips inches apart,"I have an idea."

—————————————

"An arcade?" I voiced my thoughts, surprised.

Now this wasn't any rich arcade. This was a regular arcade, one a lot of people our age would go to. I wasn't complaining about this, in fact I was excited. But I didn't expect this idea from Daoming Si.

"Yeah, come on" he smiled, dragging me inside, and brought me to a gun game. I raised my eyebrow, as I picked up the dark blue plastic gun. Si who seemed like an expert put our names in quickly and had began the game.

"Whoo! Yes" he cheered, instantly killing a player on the spot.

I glanced between the screen and him feeling something leery going on. How did Si know about this? He was so quick to play this. Like it wasn't his first time coming in.

"Kiara are you gonna play?" Si questioned confused.

I snapped out out my thoughts, and turned to the screen slowly nodding,"Y—yeah" I mumbled, raising my gun and began to play.

But I didn't put much effort in. My thoughts were making me distracted that Si won, cheering out in victory. I didn't really care for losing. My suspicion was making me feel..upset.

"Here let's go to another game" I said.

"Oh, here, this one!" He excitedly pointed, dragging me to another game, and this process continued. I tried to ignore my thoughts, on how he knew all this but they vanished when he snapped me into reality, knowing that he won another game.

While I had lost, again.

"Kiara come on out in effort. See this one" he pointed to another game, but this one was different. This was a punching bag game. He put one glove on while I put the other on. He easily punched the bag, getting a point.
