Talking Things Out

Teiji found Itami walking away from the training grounds, looking very angry. He jogged a short bit to catch up. "Hello, Lady Itami. I haven't seen much of you lately."

"I've been busy becoming training for the exams...Why did you need something..Or does Sensai want to bother me with another lecture?"

Teiji chuckled, "No Lady Itami. Merely looking for a little company."

"Just don't bug me like the others...Hmmm...How come you call me Lady Itami, why so proper all the time?"

"It's the only way I know, does it bother you? I don't wish to bother you in anyway."

"No not at all...It's just different is all..." She smiled, her stomach then growled..."Eh...I'm kinda hungry....Ya wanna buy this lady something to eat?" She chuckled

Teiji was startled at the comment. He had no intentions of this turning into a date(in his mind at least). He shook his expression and bowed, "It would be my honour, Lady Itami."

"Good, cause I'm broke!" She chuckled, she seemed to be a little kinder today...

"Where would you like to go? My father just sent me a new parcel with quite a bit of money so no place is too expensive."

"Anything is good for me, your paying you pick."

"I insist. The lady should pick where she gets treated too."

"Alright then...I would say Ramen normally...But I'm just not in the mood...Perhaps a steakhouse?"

Teiji flashed a big white smile. "Sounds delicious."

He got close to her and whispered in her ear. "I can get us some sake if you want, bartenders tend to seem I'm old enough to buy the stuff."

Itami chuckled..."Oh but I'm too young for that!" She said sarcastically as she busted into laughter, once regaining her composure..."No but seriously that'd be nice."

Teiji joined in her laugh. "Alright, but lets eat first, I'm starving."

"Agreed" She followed him into the steak house and sat with him..."So this place is kinda fancy huh? The people cook in front of you and everything."

"Yeah, better than ramen in my opinion." Teiji sat down close to Itami.

"Yeah, but ramen's always a nice cheap lunch."

"So what are you getting Lady Itami?"

"Dunno, what ever your getting is fine with me...I've never really been here before so..."

"I doubt you want what I do. I'm getting a lot of food, Lady Itami."

"Hey, just cause I'm a girl doesn't mean I can't eat...besides I haven't eaten at all today."

Teiji chuckled, "If you think you can handle it."

The chef approached and asked what they wanted. Teiji had made sure to go to any empty grill.

"We have the same order: 3 orders of your steak, 2 orders of sesame chicken, 2 shrimp, and 4 plates of sushi."

Itami's eyes widened..."Sheesh, you weren't kidding about how much food you can eat...A little expensive huh?"

Teiji pulled out his money, a rather sizable amount, and placed it next to Itami's arm. He began eating the sushi that was brought out to him.
