She blinked rapidly for a few seconds before lowering her hand to survey the familiar street before her. Another tedious newspaper club meeting had left the president tired, but mostly hungry, enough so that Rie didn’t think she could wait until she got home – she’d decided she might as well eat out. She glanced around at the storefronts and cafes that littered the street, absently wondering what she was in the mood for. Nothing in particular today, so she could always ask Toshi-kun what he— Wait. Toshi. Right. He had been with her on the subway, but as she jerked her attention away from the potential eateries, she saw that he wasn’t with her anymore. They had been on the subway together, and she could have sworn they got off together – perhaps he’d gotten lost in the crowd somewhere between getting off the train and getting up to the streets. She’d woven and shoved her way through the crowd with a sort of determination that Toshi evidentially lacked, maybe the poor kid had gotten swept away in the crowd. With a sigh of frustration, Rie tightened her grip on her school bag slung over her shoulder, turning to face the stairs, where she could look down on a portion of the platform space in hopes of spotting her companion. He was a sweet and obedient kid, but so shy. She figured it would be doing him a favour to invite him out to eat – he looked like he needed to get out more. He was the sort of person who, much to Rie’s annoyance, didn’t stand out in crowds. Though for her part, between her bright pink hair and the large bows she liked to wear, Rie stood out (despite her meager height), hopefully enough that Toshi would spot her soon, a petite pink-haired girl scowling as she searched the crowds.

"th-that was stupid of me," he muttered. his hands, previously up his coat sleeves, began to slink out and rub at his eye for a moment. he wasn't crying, but he had been near it down there. his swallowed down the fright, happy that the whole thing was over, and then looked to rie, waiting for her to direct him somewhere. at least there was some sort of familiarity to the bossiness, even if he didn't enjoy it. he looked around the eateries displayed across the road and then spotted a tiny cafe, his hands slinking back into his sleeves at the sight of cake. that'd make everything better, he was sure. a nice big slice of cake. chocolate cake. he looked to rie, wondering where she'd be taking them. he supposed anywhere with sweets would be fine. sweets and tea, he concluded, forcing a small nearly-submissive smile up to rie. "so," he squeaked, "where're we going?"[/style]

The whole subway trip he’d been nervous, and being as Rie had never really hung out with Toshi outside of school before, she wasn’t sure if he was always like that or what. She wouldn’t be surprised if it was normal behaviour for the painfully shy boy. They spotted one another at the same time, but she gave him a wave of encouragement just in case. ”It was.” She agreed, though she was only able to keep up her stern expression for a moment before breaking into a smile. Rie didn’t want to make him too uneasy; the poor kid looked to be on the verge of tears, and she didn’t want to make him cry. Though she tended to make him uncomfortable anyways, it was never her intention to do so – she just couldn’t help her overbearing nature, or the fact that he was so easily upset. She was harsh and domineering, and a lot of the time failed to consider how her actions made other people feel. Rie tended to think everything was about her. She had the urge to grab him by the hand so as not to lose him, which she managed to refrain from. He had returned to shrinking into himself and Rie made a mental note to keep a close eye on him in case he got lost again – Toshi was like the little brother she’d never had. Thankfully, she supposed, as she wasn’t suited to being a middle child anyways. Now he was looking over the eateries lining the street before the two of them, and she followed his gaze for a moment before meeting his eyes. Rie returned his smile at his question. She liked to be in charge, the center of attention, and as such was drawn to shy people like Toshi who were obedient and let her be the one in the spotlight. But, she hated to think that she was simply using anyone as a slave. No, she considered herself an expert in matters of confidence and in matters of love, so what better way to return the favour than help these people out of her shells? ”I was hoping you’d decide, Toshi-kun.“ She said, motioning towards the street. ”I’m just starving, I’m up for anything.” [/style][style=float: right; margin-right: 20px; margin-top: -1px; background-color: #fff; -webkit-border-radius: 0 0 5px 5px; -moz-border-radius: 0 0 5px 5px; border-radius: 0 0 5px 5px; height: 10px; padding: 3px; font-family: tahoma; text-transform: uppercase; color: #494949; text-align: left; font-size: 9px; -webkit-box-shadow: 2px 2px 3px #ccc; -moz-box-shadow: 3px 3px 4px #ccc; box-shadow: 2px 2px 3px #ccc;]TOSHI! • 406 • UBUBUBUBU[/style]

"ah... could we go..." he pointed his finger toward a tiny cafe, choosing randomly and hoping it'd turn out to be okay, "...there, rie-san?" it seemed like a nice place, and he was eager to get off the street. his bag was getting heavy and he wanted to get out of his coat. sure, it was nice for hiding in but he felt bulky and awkward, especially carrying his bag around as well. he adjusted his hat on his head and brushed his fringe from his face, bouncing back and forth on his feet for a moment before shrugging. "i don't really mind, either. i don't get out of the house much besides going to school so i'm just grateful i got to today~!" his face lit up for a moment as he smiled toward her and then he let his gaze fall back to the sidewalk. he was sure when he got home he'd be told to go to his room and catch up on his homework before even considering doing anything else. he tried not to think about his parents, though, he was going to try to have fun now. his bag was definitely getting heavier standing here, though.
