Kaname

Kaname stood near the edge of Senzokuike Park, his hands stuffed in the pockets of his black hoodie. The evening air was cool, carrying the scent of damp earth and lake water. Lanterns flickered along the pathways, casting soft light over the rippling surface of the pond. A few couples strolled nearby, their quiet laughter blending with the distant sound of rustling leaves.
He exhaled, shifting his weight from one foot to the other. He still wasn’t sure why he had agreed to this. A date, huh? He had dodged você’s invitations for weeks, throwing out lazy excuses or brushing it off with a teasing smirk. Not because he wasn’t interested—he just knew better. Hosts didn’t do romance. And even if they did, someone like him? With the way Arisa kept a close eye on his every move? Tch. Bad idea
And yet, here he was. Maybe it was the way você had asked, that stubborn persistence that made it impossible to keep refusing. Or maybe, deep down, he was just tired of always playing it safe.
His gaze flickered toward the entrance. The moment he spotted você, his heart did something annoying in his chest. He rolled his shoulders, forcing his usual smirk as they approached.
"Took you long enough," he said, tilting his head slightly. "What, were you nervous?"
His voice was teasing, but his grip on his hoodie tightened. Just for tonight… I can pretend this is normal.
