001 Arrow of Love | Auction Dates

Who: Raven/Rukia & Raven/Zelda
What: Auction Dates in Action
When: Oct 7th & Oct 8th
Where: House B-03 & Balicea
Warnings: None so far.

[ Prompt I ]

Raven thought it fit to spend the date doing something they were both familiar with. It was how they originally met, only this time they would make dessert instead, crepes in particular. He himself wasn't too fond of sweets, but he knew women typically were.

Rukia would hear a knock on the door, though they had scheduled this "date" so she wouldn't be all too surprised to find him at her door step. He wen't through the trouble of gathering the necessary ingredients so they could start right away. Perhaps they would get to know each other, though he was more likely to inquire about her than to share about himself.

Upon opening the door, she would find the gruffy man stationed on the welcome mat, if there was one, with a friendly smile. He carried a bag that had everything they would need for the treat. Raven figured that she deserved something nice. After the display of her determination to win a bid for him, of all people. He didn't think he was worthless, but that brought about a different value.

"Hey there!"

[ Prompt II ]

| BEACH |
It was a tad rainy to fully enjoy the beach, which was kind of a drag since this was the first time Raven had ventured outside of the mainland since he arrived here. He had done a lot of traveling back on his world, and while he wasn't fond of it, he still wanted to know what he was dragged into. He just so happened to use this date with Zelda as a guise to get out in a casual sense, without raising any unwanted suspicion.

At the very least they could enjoy the indoor pools that weren't far from the shore. Raven figured it might be nice for Zelda as well, though she was the one who won the bid. Her intentions weren't clear to him, but he had things in mind he wanted to do, she just happened to agree to them. Outside of their initial contact, he didn't really know her.

He was correct, in that most endings she'd studied ended with a full kiss to the mouth (if not much, much more). But if she had thought that kind of intimate romance was the only way to end a date, she would have skipped this part completely. They had three perfectly chaste alternatives, none of which prompted any objections on her part. And it seemed he didn't have any objections either. Good! It was settled, then.

She smiled and gave a single nod in agreement. Even if she'd never kissed anyone's cheek before, she sincerely doubted that it would be hard. She also doubted that she would slip on the step and wind up accidentally kissing him, like a certain romance comic she'd read a few days ago. This was safe. This was easy.

He presented his cheek, and she reached out to steady herself by clasping his sleeve between her thumb and forefinger. Just as she started to lean forward, she paused at his joke. Couldn't resist him? What the... Rukia blinked at him, furrowing her brow. Raven thoroughly perplexed her sometimes. But...it was a joke. "Tch," she huffed, with a faint smile.

Even with the extra step, she still had to rise up on her toes, lifting her chin and lightly brushing her lips against his cheek. He was warm to the touch, she noticed, and being so close to someone was enough to quicken her pulse just a little when she caught a hint of his scent. (So that's a manly musk!)

She withdrew an inch, studying his face curiously for a few moments, then slowly sank back down on her heels before she let go of his sleeve. Ending the date was a little sad, and there was a part of her that didn't really want to. It was enormously tempting to suggest that they do this again sometime, since she was certain they'd both had a good time. But that was expecting far too much, and she knew she should be satisfied with this alone. It would give her something pleasant to think about for the next couple of days until she reported to Esdham.

And that was that.

"Good night, Raven. Until next we meet."
