Um... [ First INDIRECT KISS. His cheeks burn at the thought. HE ERASES IT. ] I'm not telling you! It's embarrassing.

[ It's amazing how the tower hasn't collapsed yet. ]

[ She's MAKING SURE IT doesn't because she worked hard on it. And it's evidence of them getting along. ]

Alright.

[ She says it slowly and then remembers what he said to her in the PARKING LOT ANYWAY ]

Do you remember what you said? About you being... my first indirect kiss before Bandou-san?

[ He simply hums and nods. He thought they had an unspoken agreement NOT TO TALK ABOUT THAT, THOUGH. ]

[ TIMES ARE CHANGING.

She plays with one of the leaves, picking at it. ]

Okay. [ OKAY WHAT ]

I'll consider yours my first, too. We did it before I drank from Bandou-san's hot chocolate.

WHAT? [ SPUTTERS, steps back ] Um, I mean! It's okay if you don't wanna. Like, who'd want a k-kiss from me, right? Not that no one absolutely wouldn't kiss me, I think, but...

[ It means he has to consider it his first now, too. Which... isn't too bad, all things considered. ]

[ She's on his shoulders so she goes WITH HIM. And her tower finally falls. No!!! :(

Who'd want a kiss from Yata? It's too late, she's thinking of a kiss from Yata. NOT AN INDIRECT ONE. But she's also thinking of another, faceless girl kissing Yata too.

That's worse.

Uh oh. UH OH. ]

Don't put yourself down so much. [ She mumbles and pushes down on his hat so it covers his eyes. Then she leans over again, looking at him upside down. ]

There's too many people in the world. There's probably someone out there who wants to kiss you more than anything.

For example... [ What is she doing what is she doing ]

This. [ Something is pressing to his lips WHAT IS IT

It's another cherry. ]

[ oh god what is happening, he can't see

Someone who wants to kiss him? When something smooth touches his lips, he lets out a muffled yelp. If Asuna kissed him just now, he... he...

Wait, let him try taking it in his mouth. ... Yep, it's a cherry. ]

D-don't mess around like that! Mgh... [ Weird. He's relieved, but also disappointed. ]

[ Mess around.... did he think she was going to kiss him?

It would be easy to steal a kiss if his hat is over his eyes and he's not expecting it. She quickly looks away and folds her arms over his head , leaning against it. ]

Cherry-chan wanted to kiss you.

[ Asuna you're a nerd ]

Uh huh. [ He's so embarrassed. Of course Asuna wouldn't kiss him. But she's getting comfortable... WHAT DOES IT MEAN!!

First things first. ]

Um, I can't see.

[ FUNNY HE SHOULD THINK THAT.....

Yeah he can't see because she didn't WANT HIM TO. So she doesn't pull back. ]

Probably because I pulled your hat down. [ PAUSE. And then she does sit back, but only so she can pull his hat off completely and put it on her head ]

What about now?

[ Now he's slightly panicking, stepping and looking around because HE KIND OF LOVES HIS STUPID HAT. ]

Eh? Eh? Where did my hat go?

[ Yata is like a pet. Like a dog, maybe, that has a bag on its head and has no idea what's going on.

Only it's reverse she's taken his "bag" off his head. She grins a bit, adjusting the black beanie on her head. ]

Who knows? [ SHE DOES. ASUNA KNOWS. And she's holding onto him again as he moves around for balance. Only this time her fingers are in his red hair and not his black hat.

What scruffy hair..... BRUSH YOUR HAIR YATA ]

[ Nope, he has eternal bedhead.

Yata gets hair ruffles from Izumo sometimes, but having a girl's fingers in his hair is completely different. He gasps. ]

Asunaaa...

[ From a distance, Shouhei pipes up, "Hey, how's it going there?" ]

[ What a mess. He needs someone to brush it for him.

Feeling playful from EVERYTHING, she just chuckles a bit from her spot as he whines. Until Shouhei reminds them that they are not IN THEIR OWN WORLD RIGHT NOW.

Startled, she looks towards their fellow cherry picker with Yata's hat on her head.

Shouhei, once he sees that. "Nice hat, Asuna! Haha!"

Oh. Flushing, she quickly tugs it off her head and shoves it onto Yata's head. Now she has her own version of mussed, hat-head. ]

[ She was wearing his hat... Flushed and speechless, he refuses to comment. ]

Let's hurry.

[ SHE WAS WEARING HIS FAVORITE HAT. ]

[ NOT ANYMORE. Her body curls in a little and she leans over his head, shooting Shouhei uncomfortable looks even if he's not paying attention anymore. ]

Go to that tree.

[ WHERE HE CAN'T SEE ]

[ AND HE GOES. ]

... Do you like this hat?

[ MUSH!!!

She doesn't answer right away, trying to think of an answer as they move. ]

I don't dislike it.

[ She likes it but what a roundabout way of admitting it ]

[ Just say you like it, god. Hehe, she likes it though... ]

I can get one just like it. For you.

[ A present. She's glad he can't see her face because she's getting RED. They'll be matching. That makes her stupidly happy WHY ]

Mm.

[ If it's a present for her she can't refuse. ]

A red one, okay?

Okay.

[ He's never bought anything for a girl his age before... He's kind of nervous. A nervousness he forgets as soon as he finds a cherry low enough for him to pick. ]

Hey, look! They're like Siamese twins or some shit.

[ It's a mutant cherry! Kind of freaky. But not too weird. ]

[ All he has to do is get the same hat he has for her. Easy. And even if she is a pretty spoiled rich girl, anything he picks out for her would be appreciated.

She don't appreciate the cursing though. Again, she lets it go. She's pretty much used to it, from working at the bar. She reaches down to take it from him. Without asking. ]

I wonder what makes them do that.

[ She turns them in her palm

... They look like boobies!!? ]

Have you ever wanted a twin? [ Everyone thinks of this, ok ]

[ Wow, don't just grab it! They only look like boobs to you, Asuna... Though he might have been thinking that. Subconsciously. ]

A twin? Mm... A twin would be pretty cool. Or just a brother. [ A beat. ] I have a half-brother and a half-sister, but it's not the same. Not really.

[ Don't get a boner, Yata. Actually now is a good time she can't see it. Or maybe he wants her to... ]

They're still your siblings.

[ She didn't know he had siblings. Half-siblings, she guesses. She doesn't get what he means by it not being the same. The only difference is that they're half. ]

You have a sister, though. I'm jealous.
