boyfriend or get married, a piece of Biblical

advice:

Ruth patiently waited for her mate,

Boaz.

While you are waiting on YOUR Boaz, don't settle

for any of his relatives:

Broke-az, Po-az, Lyin-az,

Cheatin-az, Dumb-az, Drunk-az, Cheap-az,

Stupid-az, Crazy-az, Goodfornothin-az,Triflin-az,

Lazy-az, and

ESPECIALLY his third cousin

Beatinyo-az.

Wait on your Boaz and make sure

he respects Yoaz.

This piece of advice was forwarded to me and I thought I would share!!!

admin sam | gah, right in the feels. (╯3╰) how about lunch?

word count; 974 + ask box is open + \ links

“Come on, _______” Karou grabbed your arm. “Sit with me.”

“Hey! Where’s Hikaru?” You asked while he pulled you towards on the lunch table, he and Hikaru favored. 

“He’s stuck staying doing some extra work, and I thought I’d use this time to spend with my favorite girl.” 

“I’m your only girl, Karou.”

“It’s because your irresistible, ________. I love you.”

“Yeah right.” You said, rolling your eyes. Feeling a blush creep on your cheeks at the complement. 

You and Karou had been hanging out a lot lately with the new class arrangements. Hikaru was usually present which made thing a lot interesting - in what way. It depended on the mood. 

“Come on, would I lie to you?” He asked.

“Yes.” 

“Ouch! Cold woman.”

“Whatever” You shook your head, switching gears to your lunch in front of you. 

The conversation changed gears towards menial topics but had a great flow to it. That’s something you loved about being Karou, it was easy in a nice way. As you finished up your lunch with a surprisingly fast pace. You started to pack up as the conversation stopped, thinking you could use the extra time to go to library to look for a book for a report due. You stood up catching Kaoru’s attention.

“Wait _____, where are you going?” He said, grabbing your arm.

“I’m done with lunch, Karou and I have a lot of work to do with the report due soon.” You tugged gently but to no avail. Furrowing your eyebrows.

“Wait, play a game with first.” He said pulling you back down into your chair.

“A game - Karou, c’mon. Hikaru isn’t even here to play whose who besides I always win.” You rolled your eyes, settling into your chair and crossing your arms.

“Not that game…” He said, not meeting your eyes. 

“What game then?” You leaned closer to him.

“Hangman?” He turned to meet you and poised it unsure.

“Hangman.” You snorted a bit.

“Yea, it will be fun.”

“I don’t have any paper” You leaned back into your chair.

“That’s why they have this great inventation of a napkin - plus, it’s like recycling” He said.

You snorted and shuffled in your bag, “Ah. I have a pen, I guess.” Holding it out in front of you only for it to be snatched by him.

“I’ll go first.” He said, already writing out the game. 8 letters in 3 words with a question mark at the end.

“Fine, one game then I really need to get on with that report, Kaoru.” You leaned forward on your elbow as he scooted the napkin closer between you.

“Serious and cold, combo aren’t you, ______?” His eyes twinkled.

“Karou, I could just go” You said.

“Kidding, okay, go on, guess!” 

 “…A?” Sighing you guessed, ‘vowels first I guess’ you thought.

“Wrong!” He said, marking at a little circle for the head.

“E” 

“Correct!” He said and scribbled it in, looking at you with an unreadable expression.

“I”

“Yes!”

“O”

“Wow, smart, serious, and cold. You’re a keeper, ____!”

“Shut up…Okay…” You shook your head as you continued “U?”

“Yess. Okay now that the easy parts done. Think carefully!” He warned

You squinted and looked closer at the napkin. Leaning closer to him, unintentionally, not noticing his softening smile at you.

‘_O OU_  _I_  _E?’ you read as your eyebrows crinkled together as you thought.

“Hmmm…T?” You guessed.

“You’re cheating now.” Karou hummed filling in the letter.

“Well, I am smart.” You stuck out your tongue and focused as you read

‘_O OUT _IT_ _E’

“Ha. the second word is done. F?”

“Noooo.” He smirked drawing a line downward as the body.

“G” You mused.

“Yes!” He said, hand scribbling quickly, bouncing a bit.

“Go out it e” “What even is that? A phrase?” You shook your head at the incomplete sentence.

“I believe it is a question. The mark at the end signifies that in grammar.”

“I know that…M?”

“Well, your grammar does not effect spelling, nice!”

“Go out it me?” Go out…me?” You thought out loud.

“Hey, stop thinking ahead, just guess a letter.” He challenged.

“H, then, dork.” 

“So close, just one more letter.” He scribbled in the letter. 

“Go out with me?” You guessed, not thinking about it. 

“Yeah. Go out with me, ______” He said filling it in looking at you dead in the eyes.

“That’s a silly thing to put, Karou. You and your teasing.” You rolled your eyes.

“I’m serious.” He pressed.

You eyes meet then and locked. He moved his head closer to yours and said it again, slowly and his mouth tweaking upward…

“Go out with me, you, dense, cold, and serious women.” 

“If this is a joke, Kaoru. I swear to God…” You said, trailing off.

“It only is if you say no.” He looked so serious. 

More serious than you had ever since him, if he was with Hikaru, you wouldn’t be considering this was real. But…he is the serious one and this was too cruel even for him.

“Yes” You said quickly, smiling all over your face.

He smiled in response, and his eyes flashed to your mouth for a spilt second. 

You caught it and mirrored it, looking to his own mouth leaned a little closer and closed your eyes.

….

“What did I miss, guys?” Hikaru said, making your eyes flash open, only to see Hikaru an inch from your faces looking at the two of you.

“Ahh!” You shrieked backing away at closeness of the twin, almost falling out of your chair, only to be caught by Kaoru by your arm. 

“God, Hikaru, you’re such a buzzkill.” He said, glaring at his brother. 

“What can I say? I waited long enough at the music room, who knew it took you so long to seal the deal, little brother.”
