Ark 2: Episode 17: Looking At You Through The Glass

XxdensukexX: “phew!” Tetsu had just finished another day KPD training. He kept up his mediocre act as an okay rookie, who wasn’t to great, but wasn’t the back of the pack. Lieutenant Briggs, was always scolding him about doing his best, but Tetsu wasn’t trying to hear any of that considering he KNEW he was the best in that bunch, though he analyzed that some of them would make potential opponents. Tetsu stepped out of the Building in District 2, and decided to venture on to the hospital there where Asami had been transferred to. Tetsu still couldn’t drive, so he decided to dawn a retro skate board, and head to town. He only learned how to ride it, yesterday but with an hour of practice, Tetsu was already kick flipping, and grinding rails like nobodies business. A testament to being able to use 90% of his brain indeed. He borded his way downthere at a good speed, and arrived at the hospital. He entered in and requested to be permitted to her room. The nurse guided him there, and there she was laying in bed sleeping soundely. His heightened hearing, let him hear the quietness of her breathing, and he kinda liked it. He had 2 more dozens of red roses, in his hand and sat them beside her bedside and took his place in the chair next to it. He placed his arms behind his head, and reared back, relaxing to see if she’d wake up today.

Yule: Asami had been transferred to District 2 hospital because they were low on business and Asami didn’t mind. She knew people at the hospital there because she had filled in there a few times. Soon Asami woke up, but kept her eyes closed. She sensed someone in the room with her and also heard their breathing. She opened her eyes and saw a pleasant sight. Tetsu. She had heard what he said the other night but didn’t really register it until she woke up the next day. Tetsu Ryoji, and he said he had wanted to do this again. And look…there he was. He had brought another two dozen roses and she smiled. “Well hey there.” She said softly and then sat up in her bed. “Guess what!” She said excitedly as her eyes shimmered in the light. She was so excited to tell him the news.

XxdensukexX: Tetsu shot up, as he was happy she’d awakened once again. He leaned over, and had his hands on the edge of her bedside, and smiled brightly. Sure he was getting a little over excited, but he really couldn’t help it. He’d had her on his mind all day, and couldn’t wait to see her again. Tetsu never really though he’d have that thought. Actually he thought he’d eventually turn into a bruce wayne, minus the women of course, and live alone in a mansion with tech, and gear. If he wasn’t already there of course. Tetsu replied “whats up?!” Raising an eyebrow in curiosity. He wanted to know everything and listen to every word, as weird as that may have sounded. He just, wanted to listen to her.

Yule: Asami smiled at his enthusiasm and laughed a little. “I’m getting out of the hospital tonight. They said they don’t need to keep watch on me anymore! And I can finally wear real clothes.” She laughed and looked down at her hospital gown. Those were always so embarrassing, and were actually not very warm. “So that means you won’t have to go to a hospital to see me.” She laughed again. “Also I’ve contacted some people from my apartment building and I’ll be able to drive back to my place on my bike.” This excited her because she loved her bike more than anything. She couldn’t wait to feel the breeze through her hair. “You should come see me sometime ya know. If it isn’t too much trouble.” She smiled at him and bit her lip.

XxdensukexX: Tetsu smiled at her excitement. He loved doing that. Smiling. Not because of some nerdy joke he heard or because he blundered in training, but smiling because he meant it. Tetsu had gained a little more confidence in himself socially, and could actually talk to her a little bit better than what he was blabbering last time. He smiled and said “It would be nice to see you outside of this bed.” He laughed a little and continued. “and I’d love to come see you sometime. Actually…….if your feeling better…..We’re already in district 2, so if you’d let me pick some stuff up from my place, we could eat out. I don’t know, maybe uh. You know hospital food isn’t exactly chef worthy .” he grinned, because even though his dad could cook, sometimes his dad made things WORSE than hospital foods. Tetsu looked at her, with this question and hoped he didn’t seem creepy trying to invite her to his place which he JUST got. I mean yeah, it’s a high level apartment but it’s pretty small. He didn’t wanna seem like the rapper drake who preys on chicks with low self esteem. Rhianna prime example of course. Tetsu let out a nervous smile, slightly creepy, but with the best intentions of taking this girl out. His attired of a black suit shirt,and red tie only added to the effect that he really wanted to take this girl out somewhere nice.

Yule: Asami nodded to his idea happily. “I’d love to do that.” She smiled and then her smiled dropped. “But I don’t really have any clothes to wear..I just have the stuff I came to the hospital in. Are there any shops around here that I could buy at least a dress or something?” She looked up at him and at his clothes. He looked good in what he had on. She wanted to look as nice as she possibly could right now. She didn’t often go out. “I could drive to one of the shops and then get something and be ready.” She smiled again already thinking of what she would wear, if they had the shop she wanted to visit in this district.

XxdensukexX:  Tetsu replied quickly “Lets go shopping then. “ Tetsu smiled happily. “I’m ready whenever you are. Tetsu stood up and checked his back pocket to make sure he had his wallet. He had his black card of course. Being the son of an ex-multibillionaire scientist you’ll find that you’ve got a lot of money to spend. He nodded in approval of having it, and placed his hands in his pockets, and looked at Asami with wondering eyes. He caught himself staring at her for a second, but then came back to reality. Secretly? He was falling for her eyes really quickly. “So when you wanna go? I mean it’s no rush at all, I just uh you know I mean um…….I’ve never…….had……..a……..*cough*date*cough*. Tetsu left his hand in front his mouth to try and avoid looking awkward.

Yule: Asami giggled at his eagerness and then swung her legs off the side of the bed. “I have a really important question for you right now... Can you take my bike keys and go down to the garage and grab the small little duffle bag? It’s got some extra clothes in it until I can go shopping.” She held her keys out to him. “They should be in the storage compartment under the seat.” She then pressed the nurses call button. She waited until they came. “I’m going to get all my stuff together so we can get out of here.”

XxdensukexX:  “Oh okay. I’ll take care of it in a jiffy!” Tetsu takes the keys swiftly, and leans in to kiss Asami on her cheek. He does so, should she let him, and then runs off saying “OKAY BE RIGHT BACK GOTTA GO BYE, SORRYYYYYYYYYYYY!” Tetsu ran off and headed twrods the stars. For some reason, Tetsu was to excited to use the elevator, and kicked down the metal door to the stairs accidentally breaking it and causing a ruckus. The nurses and doctors all gave him looks of disapproval. Tetsu rand down the stairs shouting “SORRYYYYYYYYYYYYY!” he’d continue this sprint, until he reached where he was headed, and a t a good pace to one might add.

Yule: Asami smiled at him as he ran off. Almost as soon as he left the nurse came in. “Hi there I was wondering if I could be released earlier than we agreed on? You see…He really wants to take me on a date and it’d be his first one. I really want to make it up to him for putting me in the hospital.” The nurse looked horrified at her last statement. “No no! He’s not abusive, we were sparring together and it just kind of happened. Completely my fault. Look can you just get me what I need?” Asami hadn’t met this nurse and she was kind of pissing her off. The nurse, named Maria, gave her a look of doubt and Asami just glared back. “Get my stuff together or I will have you fired. I have that power. Don’t mess with me…Maria.” She said he name with contempt. Maria scurried out of the room to get her paperwork and Asami sat back on the bed. She picked up a nail file that was sitting on the bed side table and started to file her nails while she waited for Maria to come back. Five minutes later Asami was signed out of the hospital and ready to get out of the hospital. Now all she needed was for Tetsu to come back and bring her the clothes in her bike. She just wanted to be out on her date right now, no trouble with getting there. Earlier Asami had saw Tetsu feel for his wallet, she would have to tell him that she didn’t want him to pay for her, she wanted to pay for it herself. She didn’t really like someone else buying stuff for her…it made her feel bad. It also made her feel bad that he thought this was all his fault…She was the one who asked him to spar. She would make sure tonight was good for him, a good first date. She smiled softly at the ground.

XxdensukexX:  Tetsu ran and ran down the stairs, til he reached the basement level where Asami’s bike would be parked. He opened the door, and there it was in the lot, about to be stolen. Wait…WHAT?! “hey! Stop thief!” Tetsu exclaimed as the mystery man kept attempting to start the bike. Tetsu ran at full speed, for this instant and reached the man in at least 3.5 seconds time, with a haymaker aimed directly at his lower jaw. Tetsu for the first time reacted on instinct, instead of quick-second timing, and he didn’t properly measure out his punch or the force behind it. He just punched the shit out of the guy. Literally. Once the punch connected, the sound of a crack would be an understatement to the noise made when Tetsu made impact on this thief. The man flew backwards a whopping 10 ft., and that was counting air borne time, and not the man rolling on the ground in which case it’d be 15 total. Tetsu had a terrified look on his face, and quickly rushed over to the man to aid him. “Oh god, oh god, oh god!!! Dude wake up, please wake up, ah shit, damn, damn, DAMN!!!” Tetsu panicked but the man and his now swollen jaw, and broken jaw line made a groan of pain, signaling he was still alive. “Oh…….well uh….DON’T LET ME CATCH YOU DOING THAT AGAIN! Lucky for  you, I looked the schedule of a couple of nurses, so someone will be out here to assist you in a bit. The blood rand down from the man’s broken, check and it made Tetsu wince. He usually keeps checks on what he can and cannot do, but even he has not gone ‘All out” and knows not what his full capabilities are. After  moving Asami’s bike to a safer location, he straightened up his tie, and proceeded to dash back up the steps back to Asami’s room. He walked in, looking as neat as he left and held up her duffle bag saying “Here you go. I’ll leave outta the room so you can change.” Tetsu would attempt to hand her the bag, and walk out of the room at a normal pace. So much so, you wouldn’t even guess he’d just rocked a man 15 ft for his worth.

Yule: Asami took the bag from Tetsu and set it on the bed. She went over and closed the door to her room. She then started to take off the gown. Underneath she had nothing on, which was normal in a hospital. She let it fall to the ground and walked over to the bag. She started to pull out her clothes out, which were a pair of baggy sweat pants, a t-shirt, and a pair of her high top sneakers. She also pulled out a lacey black bra and matching pair of panties and pulled them on. After that she pulled on her other clothes and put her short hair back into a pony, though some of it fell out and hung around her face. She put the bag of her training clothes into the duffle and then pulled her straightener and makeup bag to the top, which her lovely friend just put in there for her. She was thankful since she was going to be going on a date tonight. She then threw her bag over her shoulder and headed to the door. She looked back at the hospital room and then looked at the charts on the back of the door. She reached up and took them stuffing them in her bag. She then headed out the door and looked to Tetsu. “Follow me.” She walked to the front desk and saw Maria. “Maria I need all my information. Right now. That isn’t staying here.” She had a threatening look in her eyes and Maria got her paperwork right away. “Um what are you going to do with these?” Asami grabbed the folder and stuffed into her bag. “What’s it look like Maria?” She then turned and headed to the stairs that led to the parking garage. She noted the doors were broke and turned to look at Tetsu. “Your doing?” She smiled a little at him.

XxdensukexX: Tetsu patiently awaited Asami’s return. He couldn’t help but envision her naked by all means. He knew it was wrong, especially since he just met her, and was about to take her out. Also it was their first real nonviolent encounter. Tetsu thought about her body mostly, and how slim it must be. Her perky chest, and great posterior must be an amazing sight. Tetsu then caught himself wide mouthed, drooling over the sheer thought of it, and quickly wiped the spit from his mouth as Asami emerged in a comfortable looking attire. “Whatever this girl wears, she can rock it indeed…” Tetsu thought to himself as she signaled him to follow her, and like a lost puppy, he followed her indeed. He listened to her exchange of words with the nurse, however he had no clue what that conflict was about, and found it easier not to press on the matter. He wanted to focus on tonight. And….”Dat ass…”Tetsu thought to himself, following her to the steps. He then face palmed himself almost as quickly as he thought it. He’d never had the pleasures of the flesh, and to actually have found a girl who showed interest in  him, he could not help but think lusting thoughts. Though he would never say it out loud, he was VASTLY physically attracted to her, and would not be shocked if it was quite obvious. When she addressed him about the door Tetsu answered “ oh yeah that heh heh heh” he scratched the back of his head nervously. “I got a little excited….I wasn’t actually measuring my-“ Tetsu stopped for a minute, and though about the man who tried to steal Asami’s bike. Would he still be there? Did he leave? Is he planning a counter attack? A puzzled look spread across Tetsu’s naturally soft completion as he thought about the possibilities. He finished his sentence however “my strength. Yeah I’m going to have to watch that ha-ha” he smiled, as he was kind of shocked at his own increase of strength.

Yule: Asami saw his hesitation and then shrugged. “Yeah try to be careful. Especially in a hospital, respect my work environment.” She stuck her tongue out at him and then started walking down the steps. When they hit the garage level she looked for her bike. She quickly found it, her baby. She walked over to it and ran her hand over the black leather seat. Her bike was a dark purple and black mixture. Those were her favorite colors and her helmet was black too. She didn’t keep an extra helmet though. So she turned to Tetsu and held her hand out for the keys. “May I have the keys, please?” She smiled after he handed them to her, assuming he did. “Oh put this helmet on.” She held it out to him as she unlocked the compartment and threw her bag in. She then sat on her bike and started it. The engine turned over immediately and she heard the purr of her bike. A smile crossed her face. “Hop on and just tell me where to go.” She smiled at him.

XxdensukexX: Tetsu replied to her tongue gesture with his own saying “Hey, maybe the door was cheap” He smirked as he followed her down the stairs. Looks like someone cleaned the man up after all. Tetsu smiled, and followed her to her bike, and watched her get on. He took the helmet she gave him and put it on accordingly. “Thanks!” he exclaimed. “I’ve never rode one of these before!” Tetsu said as he took his place behind her on the motorcycle. He was hesitant to hold her by her hips, but knew he had to do so for safety purposes. He held her, secure, but not too hard……it felt good. She was so slim in his arms, and he absolutely loved every moment of it. “It’s the newest apartment complex in the city. Theirs a Mall right across from it, in a tall building. You won’t miss it I Promise, theirs a giant bulldozer in in front of the apartments.” Tetsu let her know this info before, going back to holding her snuggly again as if he was giving her a much deserved hug.
