You woke up to the sound of Asuna talking. You fluttered your eyes open and spotted Kirito looking at you from top. You freaked out and almost screamed.

He blushes fiercely, and quickly gets off.

"Sorry! I thought you were awake." His voice trails off.

You laugh a bit. "Sure...." You say sarcastically.

"While you guys were.....uh... sleeping.. I went to my house and got the supplies for cooking, so we can cook here." Asuna says as she takes out the cooking supplies.

"Oh, thanks Asuna! Really cool for you doing that." Kirito says as he has an excited face.

Asuna blushes a tint shade of red, still visible. You growl in your head. She then asks Kirito for the meat. She looks at it in delight and starts cooking.

"This will take a while. Can you two get me some other supplies I need for this?" She says as she stirs faster and puts the spoon in her mouth.

"Ugh, I thought it was just meat." You say in an angry tone.

"Sure, whatever for food." Kirito says as he grabs your hand and takes you into the forest.

You're never related to Kirito this much.

"Asuna never said what we exactly needed." You stated and crossed your arms.

"Let's just get something. I'm hungry." Kirito says as you and him hear his stomach growl.

You laugh really hardly and he makes a pout face.

"I told you!" He says with a smile.

You smile wider. "You're so cute."

"I'm not the only one." He says.

"I know I'm cute."

"I was talking about the sandwich."

"I'm going to stick Asuna's spoon up your--"

"Hey, hey, don't get feisty with me. I'll let you share the meat." Kirito says he grabs some resources off trees.

You giggle and grab the same things he does.

It was nice being alone with Kirito. You both got to have laughs without a certain SOMEONE getting in your way, and you felt really nice.

"One last resource... The salt." You pant heavily.

"How are we supposed to get salt?"

"I dunno, you tell me."

Kirito then looks in his bag, and hands you a water bottle.

You take it and drink it. Your stamina and life regen increase slightly.

"Thanks." You say as you throw it away in a nearby bin.

"Actually, we have the ingredients for salt. Let's go back." Kirito says as he closes his bag.

"Aww, let's stay here a bit longer. This is fun." You smile and hop excitedly.

"What's in it for me?" Kirito says as he crosses his arms.

"Anything."

"Anything?"

"Anything."

"Like, anything at all?" He raises an eyebrow.

"A stands for anything." You say with a smirk.

"Okay. A kiss." Kirito says as he smiles.

"I would've done it, even if it wasn't a thing I had to do." You smile.

"Come on, let's go." You grab his hand and run into a nearby cave.

You sit down, leaning on the wall. He sits down next to you.

"Where's my kiss?" Kirito says as he lets his head fall on your shoulder.

"When we're done." You smile as you play with his hair.

His hair was soft and fluffy. It was very easy to play with. That was one of the things you loved most about Kirito; his hair. It was so soft and it made him really cute.

"Let's play a game." You say with a smirk, getting an idea.

"Which?" He says as he lets you play with his hair.

"What we like most about each other." You say.

"That's not a game."

"Whatever! Let's play it."

"Who goes first?" He says as he turns to you and inspects you.

"You since you're already searching." You smile.

"Alright. Also, don't blame me if I go deep into detail. I love everything about you." Kirito says.

"That is really cheesy." You say with blush.

Butterflies again.

"Cheesy but true." He says as he scratches the back of his neck.

"Aww, Kirito!" You say with a smile and blush.

He notices it and starts to speak. "Well, I like..." He trails off and doesn't speak as he looks at your face.

"Nothing, you have nothing?" You smile at his teasing.

"Nah, there's too many beautiful things I don't know which one to say first." He says as he smiles.

"Good save." You say, rolling your eyes.

He laughs. "I love your eyes. They're a deep, E/C, it's so pretty, everytime I look at it, I get hypnotized. I also love your cheeks. They're so adorable. Oh, and your height. It makes me feel better about myself." He smiles and gives you a kiss on the cheek.

You always have to look up at him to talk because of your height. You were a normal height, yet Kirito was still taller than you.

"I love your hair. Your hair is so poofy, soft, and it makes you really cute. I love playing with it. I also love your smile. Everytime I see it, it makes me wanna smile." You smile, seeing him smile as you say that.

"Aww, that's so sweet." He says.

"Now the actions." You say.

"I'll go first since you went first." You smile.

"One of the things I love that you do is protecting me or standing up for me. Especially in real life. You always stand up for my bullies, and even in this game. I was getting attacked, and you're always there for me. Another thing is that you never give up. You're really brave and I could see it. Last thing is how you get jealous. Whenever I talk to a guy, you always take a grip on my hand really tightly and it makes me smile." You form a smile as you see his reaction.

"Thanks.. But of course I'll stand up for you, I love you, Y/N."

You look wide-eyed at his words.

"I love you too."

There was a pause.

"Your turn.." You say, waiting for him to speak.

He pauses and looks deeply into your eyes. "I love the way you give me confidence. You fill me with hope and you always give me a reason to live. You always give me light and give me the bravery you were talking about. Another thing I love about you is the way you're always positive, or always try to lighten my mood. Whenever I'm angry, or sad, you always lighten my mood and stay positive; in the game or in real life. You always come to help and I always feel better. Last thing out of a million other things is that you always hop and give little romantic gestures that fill me with butterflies and love. You're also adorable, which is a plus." He smiles, and keeps the gaze in your eyes.

You start to tear up while smiling.

"Woah, are you okay?" Kirito says as he hugs you.

"Y-Yeah, it's just that no one has ever f-felt or said that to me before.." You say, hugging him back.

You can hear his smile.

"We should get back, Asuna is probably getting irritated." Kirito says as he pulls away.

You then look at him, and then kiss him passionately. You hold your breath, going for a nice, and slow kiss while smiling. You then stop, having to breathe.

"There's what you promised." You smile.

He wipes away your tears. "Let's go, Y/N." He says, with a smile.

You both get out of the cave and walk back to Asuna.
