"I'm not sure either." Sanoko said with a small laugh.

"Maoko, do you wanna go down to the lake tomorrow?"

Maoko nodded. "Yes I would really like too."

"ok, i'll go get us a pinic basket ready then" standing up ana leans over and kisses maoko on the cheek, "be right back"

Kaiman felt his hand go over Sanoko's, making him blush deeply. "Sanoko, do you really think there's a future for us?"

"Alright." Maoko said with a smile as she kissed his cheek. He watched her walk off to go get the picnic basket.

Sanoko thought for a moment and then smiled and nodded. "Yes I do believe there is."

"Wonderful, because I really do wish to be with you Sanoko."

Sanoko smiled. "I realized that I want to be with someone like you, so I want to be with you too."

Kaiman put his arm around the girl and held her close. "I love you" He whispered in the girl's ear.

Sanoko blushed slightly. She couldn't yet say she loved him like that yet, but she would be able to sometime. "Well... I like you too." She hoped he would understand why she didn't say love instead.

Kaiman looked slightly hurt, but shrugged it off. "Well...um..." He wasn't sure what to say since he was sure that he had scared her in some way by saying it far too early. This made Kaiman feel even worse, enough to bite his lip.

Sanoko looked at him and noticed that he seemed hurt. "I'm sorry, but I can't say that yet." she said and gave him a small kiss. "I will be though."

rawr [b]!!![/b :)

Kaiman nodded. "It's alright, I don't expect you to"

"Ok...Sorry." she said. Sanoko did want to be able to say it now since he still seemed hurt from it.

Kaiman tried to smile at the girl, but it didn't turn out right.

"You going to be ok?" Sanoko asked not wanting him to be hurt.

"Yeah, I'm wonderful"

"Ok." Sanoko said with a small smile and gave him a kiss on the cheek.

Kaiman nodded slightly, not really in much of a joyful spirit now.

"You really don't feel ok right now do?" Sanoko asked noticing that he still seemed sad.

"Sanoko, I'm fine. If you're fine, I am." He faked a smile at the girl.

Sanoko looked at him and shook her head. "No you're not fine. You're still hurt. Try not to worry about it, I do love you." she said.

"Look, I don't want you saying it if you don't really feel that way okay. I'm gonna go lay down for a while."

"Ok well see you when you get up." Sanoko said with a small sigh.
