Sayoko: Not neccessary, but if you want to...
Ken: Sure. ^_^
Sayoko: ::heads inside, hands the guy their tickets::
Guy: {Who would go to the movies at 7:30 in the morning??}
Sayoko: (:-P)
Ken: ::takes Sayoko's hand:: 
Sayoko: ^.^ ::squeezes his hand::
Ken: ^_^ Shall we look at food, or just go to the movie?
Sayoko: I'm not too hungry... let's go see the movie.

Taya: ^^!
Aya: ::takes her hand, leads her on::
Taya: ^.^
Aya: ::points out more things::
Taya: =o
Aya: ^_^
Taya: Wow, where did you learn all this...?
Aya: The birds are a hobby.... the flowers, I think you can guess.
Taya: ::nods::
Aya: ::points out something else::
Taya: Woow..
Aya: ::nods::.
Taya: =D ::pulls him under a tree:: *kisu*
Aya: o.o! ::kisses back:: 
Taya: ^.^ S'ki desu.
Aya: ..S'ki da.
Taya: ^.^! ::kisses again::
Youji: ::walks by:: {That couple's certainly busy...} ::whistles::
Taya: ::blinks::
Aya: {I know that whistle... }
Youji: ::calls:: Get a room!
Taya: =P!! You're just jealous, Yotan!
Youji: ::didn't realize who is was:: Taya-chan??! And... Aya? ::falls over 
laughing::
Taya: -.- ::throws a handy mango at him:: *BOOM!*
Aya: {Oh f---.} 
Youji: Ow! Taya-chan!!
Taya: ^.^v 
Aya: ::takes Taya's hand:: Let's go...
Taya: Aa.. haai...
Youji: ::whistles::
Policeman: ::tickets Youji for disturbing the peace::
Taya: ::squeezes Aya's hand::
Aya: ...
Taya: ::kisses the back of his hand:: He just needs something heavy thrown at 
him once in a while.
Aya: .....
Taya: ... 6.6
Aya: {F---.}
Taya: Are you worried about what he's going to do?
Aya: Mildly...
Taya: Don't worry... it won't be that bad... 
Aya: You don't know Youji-kun... like I do.
Taya: I know him in a different way.
Aya: You do.
Taya: ::bites her lip:: Gomen...
Aya: ::shrugs:: I'm not offended. Youji's a ladies' man.
Taya: You don't need to remind me.
Aya: ::nods, keeps walking::
Taya: ::eyes closed, head down::
Aya: ::sighs:: Hey, cheer up.
Taya: Isn't that my line?
Aya: It might be, but it suits now. Don't worry; cheer up.
Taya: ::smiles a little:: I'm sorry...
Aya: Don't be sorry. ::holds her hand::
Taya: I guess I kinda still care about Youji...
Aya: ::face falls:: ....I can understand that.
Taya: ..But... I... I... Aya ga s'ki desu...
Aya: ::nods silently::
Taya: ::bites her lip::
Aya: ...
Taya: ::kicks a rock:: I fucked up again, didn't I.
Aya: ...
Taya: You're going to have to get used to me if anything... maybe you're used 
to hiding emotion, but I'm out there about it. So... I don't know what to 
tell you. Take me or leave me.. I don't like hiding things from people.
Aya: .....I've noticed that difference.
Taya: Do you mind it..?
Aya: .....No really, no.
Taya: ^.^
Aya: ...But it certainly takes getting used to.
Taya: ^.^ We've got time.
Aya: We do.
Taya: ^.^!
Aya: ::nods, starts walking, hand in hand with her::
Taya: Aya-kun?
Aya: Hm?
Taya: ::touches his earring:: Where'd you get this?
Aya: ::stomach flips:: ....
Taya: ... Or is that one of those touchy subjects I shouldn't ask about 
because you'll just get all silent.
Aya: ::curt nod::
Taya: Yare yare.
Aya: ::tiny glare:: {No respect..}
Taya: ::sighs, gives him a glance back:: {No trust..}
