Amusement Park Date/Story 5

**Sumisora Tsubasa**
**Good work you two. Since you don't have anything else to do after the shooting, is it okay to head back to the apartment building?**

**Nome Tatsuhiro**
**Yeah...**

**Sekimura Mikado**
**No, Tsubasa-san! There is something I'd like to talk to you about!**

**Sumisora Tsubasa**
**? Yes, what is it?**

**Sekimura Mikado**
**Tatsu-dono needs to get used to women for the date!**

**Sumisora Tsubasa**
**Err... I, suppose.**

**Sekimura Mikado**
**So, could you please return home with Tatsu-dono as an observer for this shoot?**

**Sumisora Tsubasa**
**I see...**

**Sumisora Tsubasa**
**(When... Nome-san was locked up in the waiting room with me before, he was bit of a grouch. Will he be okay?)**

**Sekimura Mikado**
**Is it troublesome?**

**Sumisora Tsubasa**
**No way! I do not mind, but are you fine with it, Nome-san?**

**Nome Tatsuhiro**
**... Well, I'd be lying if I said it's not awkward.**

**Nome Tatsuhiro**
**However, if I don't get it together the project itself will fail and I absolutely want to avoid that.**

**Nome Tatsuhiro**
**So I'll give it my best shot.**

**Sekimura Mikado**
**A great enthusiasm! Let's overcome this special training and make Aoi-san's dream come true!**

**Sumisora Tsubasa**
**Yes! Let's begin your special training at once, then!**

**Nome Tatsuhiro**
**O- Okay. Got it.**

**Sekimura Mikado**
**Geez, what a bon vivant you are, Tatsu-dono! I want to go home with Tsubasa-san, too!**

**Sekimura Mikado**
**I'll have you submit a report on which way home you took!**

**Nome Tatsuhiro**
**Why?!**

**Sumisora Tsubasa**
**Good work during your job and special training, today.**

**Nome Tatsuhiro**
**Yeah. Sorry for making you tag along.**

**Sumisora Tsubasa**
**No, it's completely fine.**

**Sumisora Tsubasa**
**(Nome-san tried hard to talk, but that just seems to have put him under pressure.)**

**Sumisora Tsubasa**
**(How can I make him come out of his shell...)**

**Nome Tatsuhiro**
**Sumisora?**

**Sumisora Tsubasa**
**Uhm, I've been thinking about it on the way home, but were you forcing yourself to talk...?**

**Nome Tatsuhiro**
**More like, I can't call it a special training if I keep silent, can I?**

**Sumisora Tsubasa**
**You might be right, but I don't think you have to try hard to heat up the conversation.**

**Sumisora Tsubasa**
**When you are with MooNs, you are not the type to take the initiative and talk, right, Nome-san?**

**Nome Tatsuhiro**
**I guess so.**

**Sumisora Tsubasa**
**So when you talked a lot, I thought you were trying too hard.**

**Nome Tatsuhiro**
**W- Was it that unnatural?**

**Sumisora Tsubasa**
**Ah, no! I didn't mean it like that...! I was just thinking that there should be a pace that you can handle, Nome-san.**

**Nome Tatsuhiro**
**A pace I can handle, huh?**

**Sumisora Tsubasa**
**Yes. And then, what do you think about talking about things you like?**

**Nome Tatsuhiro**
**Things I like? Would one have fun listening to such things?**

**Sumisora Tsubasa**
**When you talk about surfing, you look like you are having fun, you are relaxed and your eyes sparkle.**

**Sumisora Tsubasa**
**It's softer than the usual cool image, a wonderful expression.**

**Nome Tatsuhiro**
**...**

**Sumisora Tsubasa**
**I think Aoi-san will also be very nervous, so if you show her that side, wouldn't both of you calm down?**

**Nome Tatsuhiro**
**Sumisora...**

**Sumisora Tsubasa**
**Although I don't know if that topic would win her over...**

**Nome Tatsuhiro**
**Pft, what's that?**

**Nome Tatsuhiro**
**Thanks for the advice. I'll think of a way to do things that'd suit me.**
