The following weekend...

                            

                                
                            
                              
                                  
                              
                              
                                
                                  
                                  
                                
                              
                             
                            
                            
                          
                          
Location - Family Restaurant 
Your POV 
I never thought the day would come where I would get an actual girlfriend, especially since I'm normally the shy type. Most of the girls at my school wouldn't give a shy and quiet guy like me a chance, but thankfully, Ako was kind enough to my wish come true. I can't wait to see how this relationship is going to go towards the future.
Now that Ako and I are a couple, there was only one thing left to do; go on our first date. We decided that our first date would be at the family restaurant since Roselia goes there all of the time after band rehearsals and live performances. I picked up Ako from her place on time, and she and I made our way over there. 
I was quite nervous that I had to hold her hand towards the whole walk there, but I had to be brave and not show how nervous I was.
Once we got to the restaurant, we walked inside, and sat down on a booth across from each other. 
"Thank you for agreeing to have this date with me." I said. 
"Yeah, of course!" Ako grinned from ear to ear. "I've been looking forward to this day so much that I might've been too excited to sleep last night." 
Ako let out a soft and embarrassing chuckle, and I don't blame her. I was the same way when the two of us officially became a couple, but of course, I didn't say anything about it. Hopefully getting some food in our stomachs will help us wake up a bit.
"So, what looks good to you?" I asked as I look the menu.
"The fries look good, so do you think we can share a basket?" Ako asked as she looked at me with the puppy dog eyes.
I chuckled, thinking that this is the cutest that she is acting. 
"Sure, I wouldn't mind splitting from fries with you. But we probably shouldn't mention this to Sayo-san." I chuckled again.
Ako chuckled as well. 
"Yeah, we don't need her to be jealous."

30 minutes later...
The fries came about 30 minutes later, and it was fresh off of the fryer, too. I took one fry, and Ako took one as well. We took our first bite together, and our taste buds with through the roof. 
"Oh wow, these are amazing!" I said. 
"Yeah! These are the best fries we've ever had!"
"I can't argue with that." I giggled. 
Ako and I kept talking as we ate the fries. I would say that the date is going well, but deep down, I kept having having my doubts. I think Ako is able to see that, and she became concerned.
"Hey, (Y/N), are you feeling okay?" She asked.
"Huh? Oh, yeah, I am completely fine." I chuckled. But instead of believing me, Ako ended up pouting instead. 

                            

                                
                            
                              
                                  
                              
                              
                                
                                  
                                  
                                
                              
                             
                            
                            
                          
                          
"Don't give me that look! Something is off with you, and I can tell!"
I guess Ako could see right through me, so I guess there's no point in hiding this from her.
"Well, to be honest, I guess I was just a little bit nervous about going on this date." I confessed. 
Ako took my hand from across the table, and gave it a small squeeze.
"Believe it or not, I was pretty nervous about this date as well."
"Wait, you are?" 
"Yeah, I am." Ako responds. "I was worried that I'd do something wrong, and that you wouldn't want me anymore."
Ako was thinking the same thing as me, and in a way, I guess that does make me feel a little bit better. To make her feel better, I squeeze her hand a little. 
"You know, maybe we shouldn't think how we feel about each other, and just have a good time." 
Ako nodded. 
"Yeah, you're right." She smiles.
