[RL with Junpei] [Valentine Virus]

[tiedbyfate]

After getting dropped off by Hakuba, Shito made his way into the dormitory, looking around for signs of anyone he might know.

He tried to tell himself that he wasn't nervous. Sure, he had never really been on a date before, and until recently he probably would have said there wasn't anyone in any universe that he'd be willing to go on a date with

The whole idea of having someone from another world come to his was still strange in Junpei's mind - but the fact that it was Shito seemed to quell any worry that he had.

He was quiet, but he seemed like a strong kind of guy, not to mention that all the women wanted a piece. Not that Junpei was anything like a high school girl, but you couldn't have a pack like that following you for no reason, right? The only other person he'd seen with that kind of fanbase was Akihiko-senpai. He would even excuse the fact that he was a male - after all, personality was important... Or at least, that's what they said in the movies. It wasn't weird to like him for that, was it?

Junpei paced his cluttered room, inspecting his clothes and adjusting his hat as he went. He didn't want to look underdressed... or overdressed... or... Dammit, he wished he'd had more dating experience. Sure, he could talk a good story, but he'd never really been on a date before.

Well, it was Valentine's Day after all... Perfect time to start?

After asking directions from a young boy sitting in the front hall, Shito climbed the steps and walked down the hall to the the boy had indicated.

He raised his hand and knocked, just under the name plate on the door reading "Junpei". At least he'd found the right room.

This dorm was a hell of a lot nicer than his own, he noticed. He was glad he hadn't invited Junpei to his own world, and had agreed to go visit Junpei instead. He would have been mortified to have to show Junpei his crumbling and spider-webbed home on the very first date.

The knock at the door made him start, nearly tripping over a rogue sneaker on the floor.

He tried to will himself to calm down, forcing himself to look calm and cool as he moved to open the door. First date - he wanted to look like he knew what he was doing, and not a nervous wreck. If only his palms weren't so damned sweaty.

Junpei paused with his hand on the doorknob, taking a deep breath. He could do this. It was no big deal. He hit on chicks all the time, though not with a whole lot of luck... But this shouldn't be any different.

He opened the door, flashing his date a grin.

"Yo."

Shito didn't return the grin. He was far too nervous to smile, and wasn't all that great at smiling at the best of times.

"Hello," he said. His eyes caught sight of Junpei's room behind him and widened. Reflexively, he took a step back from the mess, his fingers twitching with a sudden urge to put it right.

Trying to cover the move, he jerked his head towards the staircase. "So, uh...you want to get going?"

Junpei hadn't noticed his reaction, thinking instead that he was simply eager to get out of the dorm. He didn't blame him, after all... It was probably pretty weird to be in someone else's dorm, especially a strange one like his. All the other Gekkoukan dormitories housed either males or females... not both. And definitely not dogs. Even Junpei wasn't entirely sure what was up with their room assignments.

"Yeah, definitely," he agreed, pulling his winter jacket on and closing the door behind him.

"Oh, uh... where'd you wanna go, anyway?"

Shito wasn't wearing a coat. To him, it was still fall, but when he'd arrived here it was suddenly February. No matter, he wasn't really affected by the cold.

"I don't know," he admitted. "This is your world - your city. What is there to do around here?" He shifted a little. "Maybe somewhere we can have a bit of privacy? I don't like having a lot of people around being loud and annoying."
