15Chapter 9/8
The Date
Ok so here is chapter 9 yeah! So initially this story was going to be between 8-10 chapters long but there are days when new ideas pop up. Sadly this is only during the time I'm in school taking a test so I can't wright down my ideas and then I forget them. But whenever I have free time to wright I end up with writers block . So depending on how things go this story might finish in the next chapter or have a few more, but I don't plan on making it more than 15. So let's continue on with the story.
Rain POV
Rain slowly opened her eyes. The sun, which was just rising, infiltrated the small room. Rain mesmerized by the gently orange glow of the sun morning rays slowly blushed as she remembered last night's event. Yet what made her blush a brighter shade of red was the fact that she still had her head on top of Domon's chest. She slowly raised her head and turned to look at him. He was still asleep. Rain with outmost care slowly got of the bed. Turning back one last time she made sure he was still asleep before exiting the room to go take a shower.
Rain entered the bathroom and turned the shower making sure the water was running warm. She undressed herself taking off the dress and putting it somewhere where it wouldn't stain. She then removed her undergarments and stepped into the warm shower. The water lightly pounded her hair and body instantly relaxing her. While Rain showered her thoughts drifted to last night. She couldn't help but still feel a ting of jealousy. Even Rain had to admit they made great partners and would probably be a good couple. As she had said before Allenby could communicate with Domon in a way Rain couldn't, and that was through her fist in fighting. But then again Domon had told her he really did love her so why was she so insecure?
I've dated before so it's not like I don't have experience, so why is it that I feel so insure about my relationship with Domon? Besides Domon isn't the type of person who would play with someone much less their feelings. He might be stubborn, rude, and ill tempered, but even then he also has a caring side that cares for the people he loves. I'm one of them right? Why is it that I have a hard time accepting Domon's feelings for me? He already told me he loved me twice! And it wasn't a short I Love You, but a long declaration and it happened twice I should be grateful. Maybe the reason why I feel so uneasy is because I know how hard it is for Domon to show his true feelings. As Rain finished her thoughts she turned the shower of grabbed a towel and dried herself.
Domon POV
I awoke before the sunrise debating whether or not to go training. Even if I wanted to I doubt I would be able to seeing how Rain still had her head and arm wrapped around me. I could no longer feel the left side of my body as it had gone numb. I didn't want to stir Rain so I decided to just lie still and watch the sun rise.
The suns first rays where appearing when I noticed Rain stir. Quickly I shut my eyes and pretended to be asleep. Why I did this I don't know but I waited till she left to get up. I heard the shower running and knew she was taking a shower. I too wanted to take a shower so I patiently waited till she finished. While I waited for her my thoughts slowly drifted to last night.
I must admit seeing Rain with Chibodee really surprised me, well, actually Argo and Nastasha surprised me more. Still I couldn't get the image of Chibodee's hand wrapped around Rain's waist as if she was his. I thought I had made it clearly that I loved her and that she was mine. I guess it's because I don't have much dating experience, but once you declare your love for a girl she's yours right. Maybe I'm missing out on something, but I have come to the realization that I can't keep going on with my life without Rain. It's a bit troublesome to ask my father about something like this so I'll have to ask someone else. Hoi and Ming always seem to know what to say and do in these types of situation.
Drifting back to the present I hear the shower turn off and then Rain walks into the room.
Normal POV
Once in the room Rain notices Domon awake she speaks to him while avoiding eye contact.
"Hello Domon, are you heading off to practice?"
Domon likewise avoids eye contact and replies, "Not today. I was just waiting for you to finish your shower so I could take one as well."
"Oh okay, well I'm done so you can use the shower now."
"Okay."
Domon gets up and calmly walks to the bathroom to start his shower. He strips and gets in. Unlike Rain he showers in cool water and only takes about 8 minutes.
Rain is in the room organizing her stuff before she walks out and goes to the kitchen in order to help make breakfast. Breakfast today consisted of miso soup, rice, and omelet. She helped Ming by making the omelets and washing the rice. Once breakfast was finished Domon, Hoi and the old man walk in the food was served and they ate with small talk. Once everyone had finished Rain took to washing the dishes while the kids and Domon went outside to play.
"Hey Domon how are things with you and Rain?"
"What do you mean." He asked the children.
"Well," said Ming, "We've noticed that you guys don't really spend much time together and Rain is always of with Chibodee and you're off training with Allenby."
"So kids what do you suggest I do?"
"Well Domon first you must make sure Rain only looks at you and doesn't fall for someone else."
"What do you mean by make her look at me, and have Rain not look at someone else?"
"You see Domon a women's heart can easily change since its fragile someone else could easily make it flutter so you must make sure no one steals her from you."
Domon suddenly remembered how Rain switched to his brother's side.
"So what can I do to make sure she doesn't waver and stays by my side?"
"You must take her on a date! Also tell her that's she's pretty no matter what make sure to compliment her a lot and tell her you love her."
"A date huh." "How does that work."
"Oh Domon you are so clueless a date can be anywhere but has to be the only two of you." "You can take her out to dinner, a park, Movie Theater, or even the beach or a cliff where you can watch the beautiful sunset. Girls like those types of thing."
Domon stored all the information in his mind and didn't ask further question since Rain had just come out.
Hoi and Ming taking it as their cue left in a hurry to go play with friends. Rain watched the go while Domon watched Rain.
Rain turned and caught Domon looking at her, Domon not knowing what to quickly stood up and turned to leave, but remembering Hoi and Ming's word told her, "If you're not busy later on lets go out."
Before Rain could answer he was already half way down the dock.
Domon roamed the streets aimlessly with no real since of direction or destination. He was very busy in trying to think of a place for his date with Rain later on. So maybe that's why he didn't notice the giant man until he smacked into him.
"Domon Kasshu why don't you watch where you are going," said Nastasha in a low husky voice.
"Sorry I had things on my mind."
"So it appears."
Domon and Nastasha did all the talking while Argo watched silently.
Finally he spoke "We can't keep talking here in the middle of the street how about we go to a bar."
In the bar Nastasha asked Domon how things where going on with Rain and carefully observed him while he answered.
"You seemed a bit surprised last night when you saw us at the festival."
"I was I never expected to see you guys there."
"We'll we were going to invite you and Rain, but you weren't there. Actually if we hadn't gone it seemed Rain would have gone alone with Chibodee."
As those last words left Nastasha's lips she focused her deep violet eyes on Domon facial features. She noticed how this was news to Domon. So he didn't know that Rain had agreed to go with Chibodee he probably thought we all meet by coincidence. She also notices how a small fire burned in Domon's pupils from jealousy.
"Why were you with Allenby instead of Rain? Di you even think of asking her?" Asked Argo with his deep low voice.
Domon was momentarily stunned. Why would he have gone wi ̶ . His talk with the children came back.
"I was Allenby because she asked me to go with her."
"What about Rain isn't she your partner, actually no she longer is your partner she's your girlfriend."
"My girlfriend?"
"Don't tell me you haven't made it official," said Nastasha in disbelief.
"Domon in order for Rain to think of you as her man you need to also make sure she's also your women and not just your love interest."
Domon was quiet for a bit before he finally gave in and asked, "So what I'm I suppose to do?"
"Normally I wouldn't get involve and tell you to figure it out yourself, but because I like Rain I'll tell you."
Domon paid lots of attention to what Nastasha and when she was finished he downed his drink told her thanks and began to make preparations for the night.
Normal POV
The time for their first date arrived and Rain began making her preparations. Tonight she would be wearing a Belle of the Ball Dress in a Tiffany Blue. The dress reached just above her knees and was sleeveless. It had intricate lace detailing from the bust up and intricate pleated detailing at the breast section and then continued to flow loosely down. She would be wearing light beige high heels and she had her hair pined up with her bangs hanging out. She gave herself by applying MAC Fresh Salmon Lipstick and adding mascara to her eye lashes to make the longer.
Domon tonight was wearing dark brown dress pants and a brown dress shirt with black shoes. When he finished he went outside to wait for Rain. When Rain finally walled outside his breathing almost stopped. She looked stunning and it was hard not to stare. Forcefully he removed his eyesight from her an opened the door to the core lander and offered his hand to help her in. He then returned to his side and got in. They drove in silence both stealing glances of each other.
There date would take place in a beautiful Picnic Pavilion, which he had reserved just for the two of them. A waiter was already waiting for them; he took their drink orders as well as food. He later returned with their drinks. Rain stared at the beautiful scenery which was illuminated by the setting sun's rays. Domon only kept looking at Domon and observed how her eyes twinkle at the place.
Their food arrived and they ate in comfortable silence. Once they finished Domon lead Rain to a rowboat. He slowly rowed the rowboat and once they were away from the picnic area he talked.
"Did you enjoy dinner?"
"Yes I did, I enjoyed it very much thank you Domon."
He gave her a small smile and she returned it with one of her own. Domon stopped rowing and let the boat sway on its own with the waters low current. They both stared at the setting sun that was just about to finish descending. Its last rays giving of a soft glow as Domon slowly reached for Rain turned her face to face his and then ever so gently planting a kiss on her soft lips just as they became enveloped in darkness. Domon pulled back and noticed Rain's blushing face.
"I hope I've made it clear this time, that I really do love you and wish that you where mine alone. Rain will you be my girlfriend?"
"… Of course I would love to Domon."
Domon was about take it a step further as he reached into his pocket for something when out of nowhere the boat tipped over sending them both into the water.
Both Domon and Rain emerged from the water, Domon flipped the boat over climbed in and extended his hand to Rain helping her get in. They slowly rowed back to shore. Since they were soaking wet they waited for a bit to dry off before climbing aboard the core lander. They laughed all the way home. When they arrived at the boat house Rain and Domon were holding hands, as they walked down the dock Rain suddenly turned and gave Domon a passionate kiss which included her pressing herself to him and wrapping her arms around his neck. She then pulled away turned and walked swiftly into the boathouse. Only when she was inside did she realize what she had done, making her face flush. It burned redder when she remembered that she and Domon shared a room.
