(I actually forgot the month of the wedding and the present month, I think it should be at least August and I think the wedding was October.)

Nejire and Tamaki began wrapping up their date. Or at least the cafe part. She wanted to walk around the city for a while. Tamaki was up for it so whatever.

At the moment, the streets were busy. Lots of people crowded the shopping area. Tamaki looked extremely nervous. Nejire had no idea why but she also didn't care. She just wanted to look at the lights at night.

"Look at that building!" She gasped, pointing at a large building. The lights looked absolutely amazing. She would take pictures but all it would look like was blurry lights.

Nejire pulled her hair back a bit. She was in awe. As the night went on, some small food stand was playing music. She started a small dance. Tamaki looked down at her and just watched her sway her hips and move her arms in a cute way. Nejire just laughed at herself. She looked absolutely stupid dancing like that.

The shopping center was so crowded that Nejire had to hold his hand to make sure she didn't get lost. She had a horrible sense of direction and if she lost Tamaki, she wasn't going home. She didn't even know where they were going, she just wanted to walk around. It was nine by now, so she had an hour to get home.

Tamaki was freaking out. She was holding his hand! He wasn't leading her anywhere since they were walking directly next to each other, but they looked like a couple. Not two friends hanging out. It made him uncomfortable thinking about that.

As they walked, Nejire continued to dance like a crazy person. It got Tamaki to laugh a bit. He hadn't laughed in a while.

"You have a really cute laugh Tam tam."

"Tam tam? I-I thought that was my contact name."

"Well, it was a cute nickname so it just stuck. Do you not like Tam tam?"

"I-I mean it's cute b-"

"Tam tam it is!" She giggled. As long as she was smiling she could call him anything. Her smile was majestic compared to his own.

As the night got longer, Tamaki began walking Nejire home. She was already far from home and they had to walk through the shopping center once again.

There was obviously something going on. Everyone was still crowding the area but it was obvious something was wrong.

Some criminal was running away from law enforcement. The odd thing was, the cops weren't wearing the Normal dark blue uniforms. Or in cop cars. In fact, they looked nothing like cops.

The uniform of one man was completely different, hardly looking like a real uniform. The uniform was an open asymmetrical long jacket. Only one of the jackets were grey, the other three were people wore black jackets. There was no symbol showing what they worked for, just the jacket. One of the people wearing the jackets was a woman, the other three were men.

Tamaki knew what these people were. That 'criminal' wasn't going to live. Especially since they had a grey jacket with them. One of them pushed past Nejire and a random, almost knocking the small girl to the ground. It was the grey jacket.

The grey jacket wore a mask, had long silver hair, and striking grey eyes as well. Tamaki knew him. Wow, this was a big issue now. He glanced back at Tamaki as well and obviously saw something was up.

"S.U.Ns." Tamaki muttered. Nejire didn't know what it stood for or what they fought for but she encountered them and knew they were basically legal killers.

They ended their 'date' and started walking to Nejire's home.

(I know this part sucked but :3, I don't care because I can't feel my leg.)

Two hours had passed since the S.U.Ns incident. Ryuko was hardly awake and three seconds from passing out. It was Midnight by now, Shinya wasn't back (like normal), and she had taken a break from planning. She was sprawled out over the bed, getting ready to go to bed.

Then she heard the sound of keys in the keyhole. She got up and walked down the stairs, still sleepy. "Hey Shinya." She rubbed her eye and finally got a good look at him.

He was covered in blood. (:3)

"Are you ok?! What happened?!" She said, taking his hands and looking for gashes. She was absolutely horrified.

"Hey, hey, it's fine, it's not mine." He reassured her. She seemed a bit more concerned than scared. Her eyes were much wider than normal. Her pupils were dilated and shaking. "I'm ok, I promise I'm ok."

"What happened?"

"There was a issue and there ended up being more people than we thought. One of the black jackets almost lost a finger." He scoffed.

"I... I'm just happy you're ok."

"Sorry for making you worry Koko." He said. She hugged him, not caring about the blood that could get on her. She really just wanted a hug after that scare.

"You're gonna give me grey hairs before I'm thirty." Ryuko joked with a few tears in her eyes. He took off his gloves and put his hands on her face just so she didn't have to worry about blood getting on her.

"Then I'll stop getting other people's blood on me."

"Go shower."

"That was the plan." He said and kissed her forehead. He pet Aurora a bit, giving her the attention she required. Ryuko closed and locked the door, walking upstairs.

"Hey Aurora!" She smiled and picked her up. Aurora wasn't allowed in their room because of... an incident. Ryuko gave her a kiss on her forehead and put her back down.

After twenty minutes, Shinya left the shower and was clothed. She was already in bed when Shinya got in bed himself.

"You always wake me up the second I get ready to go to bed."

"Do you want me to come home a bit later?"

"No, I don't mind waking up."

She rolled on top of him again. They slept like that when she got bored or cold. He didn't mind her doing it, she was only 113 pounds.

"But seriously, are you ok?"

"I already said I am. Just because I'm covered in blood doesn't mean I'm hurt."

To any normal person, this sounded horribly weird. It still was, especially since he was a 'legal killer', but whatever. Ryuko was used to it. The first time they met, there was an issue and she got tackled-

"You're weird." She said and kissed his jawline before going to sleep in his arms.

(I'm gonna rewrite this. Today was a bad day. I couldn't feel my leg, I was kinda tired, and I had to unbraid my, really curly, hair. Imma rewrite this if I've got time.)
