Sun rays made their way to the sleeping couple.
Groggily, Ranmaru opened her eyes then moved her head a little, to see her husband still sleeping.
"Ta-ku-to,"
"Ran-chi...5 more minutes,"
"We still need to stroll in the city, we only have a day for that, Takata said they will arrive tomorrow morning with Tenma," she rolled her eyes
Instead of standing up, Takuto hugged her tighter.
"Ughh... Takuto,"
"Today is planned already, let's go with the schedule...and its still--"
"9 in the morning you idiot, c'mon...I want to see the Eiffel Tower--"
"It's better to see it in night..."
"Demo, Takuto!!!"
"Then give me another Ran then we'll go," Takuto smirked
Ranmaru blushed then glared at her husband, "Then that will take us longer!"
Takuto laughed the hugged his wife again.
"Takuto~ later I promise, I want to stroll...now,"
"Let's do the part 1 then resume it later~" he pinned her down, already aiming for her neck
"Takuto. Let's. Go. Now," she said coldly
Shivers ran down his spine then unwillingly went to the bathroom.
Ranmaru chuckled, "Good boy,"
-------------------------------------------------------------
"Takuto!! Look a soccer ball keychain!" Ranmaru shrieked
Takuto laughed then went to Ranmaru's side.
"Do you like that?"
"Yeah...a gift for Tenma like that," she laughed
"Hmm... don't you like anything for yourself?" Takuto asked
"Well..." she advanced closer
"Takuto is enough," she whispered to his ear
Turning her heels, "Let's go now, Ta-ku-to!!"
"Ran-chi~" he followed her, pouting and walked childishly
They strolled a little farther then bought the things they need and want.
"Eh? You didn't buy anything for yourself?" Ranmaru asked
"Are you happy?" Takuto countered her with a question
"Of course! I'm with the person I love the most in the City of Love!!" She said enthusiastically
"Then there, I don't need to waste money, just see you and our children happy completes me," he smiled
"So sweet Shin-sama..."
"Really, Kirino-senpai~?"
They rolled their eyes then laughed, remembering the old days.
After settling in a café, they decided to go shopping again, Ranmaru's decision.
"Ranmaru, aren't you tired?" Takuto asked
"One last place to go!!" She said, dragging Takuto who was all exhausted from walking and carrying shopping bags.
Takuto stared at the place wide-eyed, "Ran...ma...ru...?"
"Do you like it...?" She asked
"I love it!!" Takuto carried her
"Woahh!! Ta-takuto!!" She laughed
"This place is mine?" He asked dashing inside like a kid
"Yeah, it's my gift for you, sorry it took a lot of years," Ranmaru followed him
"What are you saying?!! This place is...I can't explain!!"
A piano theater. Ranmaru bought Takuto a prominent piano theater in Paris. Even though they wouldn't even visit it usually, Ranmaru chose to buy him a theater in Paris. Not just a theater, this theater is established since 19th century and is being renovated every year.
Takuto skipped towards the piano then tried tapping some keys.
"Ranmaru!!! You buy this whole place with this piano?!!"
"Yeah, I know that you want that piano since we were kids,"
"Ranmaruu!!" He dashed to his wife then hugged her as they fell in the carpet
They laughed just like the old days. Just like those times when they were kids, when they were still teammates.
After touring themselves, they decided to walk to the Eiffel Tower since its 6 PM already.
"Nee, Ranmaru..."
"Hmm...?"
"Do you still remember that day we met?"
"In the snow...?"
"Not that, we met before that right?"
Then it hit Ranmaru, "Oh! How could I forgot!"
-------------------------------------------------------------
The fireworks in the sky made ths crowd cheer. Noise is an understatement.
Ranmaru sat behind the tree then laid herself, being careful enough so she'll not dirty her yukata.
Takuto sat in the other side of the tree, his two little hands holding a toy piano.
They both sighed, then Ranmaru started to hum which startled Takuto.
Until Ranmaru decided to sing, "When we grew apart, its destiny, it was just how it was suppose to be,"
Takuto recognized the song then his hands played his toy piano, startling Ranmaru.
"But I know I'm not strong enough to accept that so easily..." she continued
Their mini-duet continued as the fireworks display was still ongoing.
"The song that I was singing and gave to you is now just a sad love song overplayed a time or two..." Ranmaru sang as she put her hand in her side, tapping her fingers
"Let the wind flow it and blow it away, back to that time, that summer day, when I fell in love with you..." Takuto added, still playing the piano
"Kirino-chan!!" Somebody called
"Shindou Takuto! There you are!"
They stood up then ran.
But before that, they stole last glances at each other, feeling a certain connection between them.
------------------------------------------------------------
"I didn't realize you were wearing a yukata back then!" Takuto said
Ranmaru just laughed as they reached the Eiffel Tower.
They watched the tower lit up as some people clap their hands.
"Its so beautiful..." Ranmaru said
"Same as my wife..." Takuto moved Ranmaru's head to his shoulder, hugging her waist using his left arm.
Then Ranmaru gave him a keychain.
"Use that as your theater's keys' keychain," she smiled
"That's too much, Ran-chi..."
"We're not yet even, Takuto..." Ranmaru pouted which was true, Takuto gave her a yatch, a farm, a mansion in Italy, and etc.
Takuto kissed his wife which was gladly accepted by Ranmaru.
"Thank you, Ranmaru, for everything,"
She just laughed.
"I love you," he said, leaning his forehead to hers
"Even though I'm not that smart?"
"Yes,"
"Even though I act like a tsun?"
"Of course,"
"Even though I throw tantrums even though I'm already 29?"
"Yeah," he leaned his nose to hers
"Even if I-"
Takuto closed the gap between them
"I love you the way you are..."
"I love you too... Takuto..."
"I freakin' love you more Ranmaru..."
They decided to take a picture then started walking back to the hotel.
"Its gonna be a long night eh?" Takuto smirked
"I think so...not yet done with my birthday surprise for you, Takuto," she smiled slyly
She hugged Takuto then whispered to his ear, "Happy Birthday Takuto...I love you so much,"
