[Statue of Hachiko, 0857 Hours Local Time]

It was almost a cliche meeting here, she though to herself. One of the most well-known stories concerning Shibuya is the story of Hachiko, a dog who waited on his late master at Shibuya Station every day from 1923 until it's death in 1935, eventually becoming a national celebrity for his loyalty.

A statue of the dog was built adjacent to the station, and the surrounding Square became the most popular meeting point in the area due to it's proximity to the train station and because it was easily recognisable as a landmark.

Miyuki checked her watch again.

She'd arrived about an hour earlier, and they were supposed to meet at 10AM. Except of course, Kouta was a typical idiot, and Japanese enough to probably show up early, which was why she was here long before.

Dressed in her usual ashen brown suit with a brown leather satchel (she'd never been the sort to use a purse) slung across her shoulder, the more conservative European style of dress stood out amidst the more fashionable crowd that congregated there, but it was close enough to a normal business attire that nobody would think anything of it. If nothing else, at least it wouldn't be hard to find her once he arrived.

For most people, a first date with the one they cared about would be nerve-wrecking...such was not the case for one Kouta Azuma. For all intents and purposes, he had it in his head he was working on his day off, for some bizarre idea to hold a fake date in order to look for Undead, as ridiculous as it sounded.

Still, even if it was "fake" he got up early and got dressed, even going as far as to change his image a bit. Look nice and at the same time, look different from how he normally looked so Undead wouldn't recognize him that well: even things like that should be able to recognize a previous foe...right?

So, gone were the overly casual clothes and the clothes that adorned his ever present emblem that signified "Kuuga". Instead, he was wearing a different ensemble which consisted of black pants, a black turtleneck sweater, a pair of leather boots, a red trench-coat and strangely...a black beanie sat atop his head. It wasn't overly fancy, but at the same time it blended in with Shibuya typical crowd: different fashions and different brands all over.

Of course, even with the crowd, a certain someone stuck out like sore thumb to him. There Miyuki was, waiting at the Hachiko statue, clad in the same clothes he always saw her in....and over an hour early it seemed. He was guilty of the same, choosing to head out at an hour before the designated time. Still, the fact she was in business clothes just reinforced the idea that it was time for work, so he felt a little silly for bothering to dress up for this occasion.

"I guess there wasn't a point in setting up that meeting time." he joked as he approached her, waving casually all the while. This was followed by a small lookover of the woman, which made him voice his previous thought out. "...or for that matter, me dressing up."

"Thanks for being considerate and being early." she greeted, with an unknowable degree of sincerity behind the flat voice. "Though considering it's you it's not exactly a surprise." she offered at the end.

"It's mostly because I dunno what you'd do to me if I was late." Kouta replied with a simple shrug. "I don't want to end up stuck in bed rest again, especially after this is my first chance to go out in a while." whatever sincerity she may have shown was missed once again it seemed.

"Is that how you see me?" she retorted, managing not to roll her eyes. "I wouldn't abuse authority and declare you unfit for duty just because you stood me up, I did say it was optional."

With her eyes closed and indignant posture, it was a miracle she didnt sound annoyed. Then again with the flat, harsh tone she always had, one could argue Miyuki never really sounded like anything other than a business automaton or an angry lecturer.

"Although I do appreciate that you showed up" se added at the end.

"You're scary enough to want to break my legs for disobeying orders." Kouta stated without missing a beat, referencing a threat he received when he was bed ridden some time ago. Right now, the signs that he liked Miyuki were pretty much non-existent, if she was going to stay in business mode, then he'd adopt the attitude he had when he worked with her those few missions: stubborn like her.

"And again with my presence being here optional...jeez I already know I'm out here for a job, no need to sugarcoat it to make me feel better." he mused simply enough. "Though I guess I should keep it down in regards to that...this is supposed to be at least convincing."

"Sometimes I have to do things for your own good even if they are unpleasant." She said, waving it off. "But this is a date. No more, no less, so you don't have to worry about that. Let's go."

Quickly adjusting her satchel, she walked off towards the square proper, gesturing for him to follow. It was clear she didn't want to waste time idling there.

"A date but not, I know." Kouta commented as he merely followed after. "It'd be nice if you at least looked the part." he thought allowed, stuffing his hands in his pockets and walking side by side with Miyuki. Though his attention seemed to be elsewhere, keeping his eyes out for an enemy that was apparently here.

"What are you talking about, it's just a date." she randomly groused, and attaching herself to his arm as she walked closer to him. It was a date afterall, so it wouldn't be unusual.

Although it was fairly obvious things weren't off t a good start.

"A fake one to make it easier to look for undead...as ridiculous as it is, then again they do have some semblance of intelligence so it would do to try hiding from them this time around." Kouta answered simply enough, not really fazed by Miyuki attaching himself to his arm. For a brief moment he looked happy but he quickly forced that away.

"I mean, if it was a date you'd at least dress the part. You're still in your heavy work clothes and I'm guessing the bag has your weapon or something in it." he mused, though he appeared to be in more of a ranty mood for once. "Besides, you made it quite obvious before that you wanted me to give up on this silly feeling, and you probably called me out because I was the only one left."

She stopped in her tracks for a moment in the middle of a busy square.

"Maybe so..." she admitted, before changing the subject "Anyway do you plan on taking the lead or should I choose where we go?"

There was a hint of playfulness there. Even if her expression and attitude didn't change, something - almost imperceptible to be sure but definitely there - seemed abit different from the normal business as usual that was almost always present in her.

"You're the one who planned this, I'm just here to follow my superior's orders." Kouta quipped, still alert for once. It was...odd to say the least. Kouta liked her,why couldn't he let himself enjoy the date? Why did he just continue to see it as a job rather than relaxing?

He didn't say it, but he only had one thought on his mind: As much as he wanted it, as much as he wanted to let himself be happy, this was but a false happiness, a lie that would just hurt him more than ever in the end.

"To be perfectly honest I didn't plan it all that well." she admitted casually "I assumed you'd be more assertive, but I suppose where ever things take us works as well."

Was she actually being pleasant? It seemed so in a way, like she'd allowed herself to actually relax for once. She didn't seem nearly as tense or bitter as she usually did.

She took a moment to look around, and then seemed to light up.

"How about there?" she asked, pointing to a Marine aquarium.

"Do I look like the type who knows what to do on a date? Or for that matter relax?" Kouta joked himself, somewhat loosening up for a bit, maybe it was the change of tone, he wasn't sure himself. But to anyone who knew them, it would have probably looked strange for Kouta to be the one on guard while Miyuki being the one who loosened up.

"I'm not one to stare at fish...but who knows, maybe it'll be interesting?" Kouta answered. Really, he'd bear anything, afterall for him, someone else's happiness came before his own.

"Fish can be pretty interesting." she commented as she tugged on his arm to lead him to it. "Come on, I'll pay for us both."

It seemed odd. She did seem to be less tense and far more relaxed, but her voice didn't change at all.

"Though really if you don't like it we can go somewhere else if you prefer."
