(Kazuto Kirigaya)

Getting dressed in my best clothes, I couldn't help but smile. Can you believe it? I'm not wearing black. Well, not entirely.

As I button up my shirt, I remember I still need to give Shino her glasses. Now dressed, I rush out of my room to give them to her.

"Shino?" I call out. No reply. Well, not Shino replying.

"She left to gk get changed," Suguha announced. I turn to her. I smile sweetly at her. She sure grew up.

"You like it?" Suguha blushed. As any other sibling would, I nodded.

"Stunning," I replied.

"Ah stahp it," she said, embarrassed. Although I knew she didn't want me to. Hanging out with girls, you pick up a thing or two.

"No really, you do," I insisted.
"Well aren't you in a good mood?" Suguha teased.

"I guess," I laughed. Suguha looked like she had an idea.

"Why don't you surprise Shino tonight?" Suguha questioned.

"I'm listening," I replied.

(Tsuboi POV)

I get ready for my date with Rika. I never would've thought I'd see the day. I sighed, she'll probably give Kazuto the googly eyes the whole time.

Maybe I should've asked Suguha. I frown. Oh well, its all set and done. She'll probably have fun with that Jun kid.

Psh, cutest red head, my ass. But I guess he's a good kid.

(Shino Asada)

I dress in my clothes Hikari picked. I put on the ribbons Tsuboi got me.

I take a look and the mirror and frown. Is this too much? I turn to take a good look. Until my phone vibrated.

Kazuto: (Hey, I know this is last minute, but can you meet me in ALO?)

That's odd. I place my nerve gear on and log into ALO.

I appeared in the meadow we usually meet at. And sure enough, I saw Kirito in the distance.

"Sinonon!" Kirito waved at me. Usually that would get on my nerves.

I walk up to him and I'm greeted with a kiss on the forehead.

"Kirito," I mumbled, surprised. What's he up to? He grinned.

"I want to show you something," Kirito held my hand and led me to, well,I don't know.

"Where we going?" I questioned.

"You'll see," he reassured.

"What about date night?" I asked.

"This won't take to long," Kirito reassured once again. Led me into the forest.

"Won't the monsters spawn?" I asked, not in the mood to fight.

"Will ya just trust me?" Kirito pouted. I nodded.

He led me deeper into the forest and suddenly saw a cave.

"Was that always there?" I questioned. He chuckled.

"Cmon," he insisted, leading me inside. I've never seen this. Strangely it was like a tunnel, only lit by the trail of torches. And on the other side amazed me.

"Wow," I gasped.

"I knew you'd like it,"

This forest was lit up with small sprites, almost firefly like. The trees were lit up as well, leaving a golden glow. The silver moon made it look as though the grass wee silver. A silver and golden forest.

"The surprise isn't over yet," Kirito teased. I turn to him instantly, making my heart stop.

"No your kidding me," I exclaimed.

"Why would I be kidding?" Kirito laughed.

"Kazuto, we're high schoolers!" I cried. Although, I know I'll grow fond if this moment.

Kirito was on one knee...
