Date with Lamy

Morning, around 10 o'clock, our usual wake up time during weekends. My eyes opened after getting some good rest during the night. The first thing I noticed while still in my half-asleep state is Lamy, sleeping right next to me and holding me as one holds a body pillow. She still seemed to be asleep, breathing softly on me and making cute noises as she did so. I decided I'd just let her rest for a little longer while basking in her overall cuteness. I couldn’t help myself but to reach my free hand towards her head and ruffle her hair up a bit by giving her a headpat. As I did so, however, I heard her mumble something in her cute voice. Could’ve sworn it was something along the lines of asking me to let her sleep for a bit longer, but as much as I wanted to enjoy cute sleeping Lamy, we really should have both been getting out of bed already.
	Shaking the cute half-elf gently to wake her from her rest, I softly told her that it was already morning, kissing her cheek afterwards. My simple wake-up spell seemed to have worked, as I saw Lamy-chan open her beautiful yellow eyes and look at me. She then noticed herself holding my body in a hug and a leglock, blushing a bit before apologizing for clinging onto me in her sleep again. I tell her it wasn’t a big deal at all and that I rather enjoy it when she does that, provoking an even more intense blush out of her as she let go of me, clearly embarrassed.
“I’m gonna make breakfast, you can rest a bit more,” I tell her while I slowly made my way out of the bed and on my feet. As I left the room and closed the door, I looked back at Lamy only to see her lie back down to sleep for 10 more minutes. Cute.
	The day’s breakfast was simple – sandwiches, since I was clearly too lazy to prepare anything else other than slap some ingredients loved by many onto some slices of bread. Since both of us are spicy food enthusiasts, I decided to slap some hot pepper powder as a topping, it’s always nice to spice things up a bit. As I finished making our grub, I heard steps walking towards the dining room, the cute creature making them still wearing her sleepwear as she sit herself down, clearly drowsy and not fully awake yet. I set the plate with her sandwich in front of her and do the same for my portion of the meal before pouring both of us some drinks – orange juice, the superior morning drink. As we started eating and she took a bite of the spicy treat I made, she almost immediately noticed the hot pepper and smiled at me, clearly happy that I made something that suit her tastes so well.
	While enjoying our meal, the two of us made plans for today. We decided to go on a date, something that we haven’t done in a while since both of us have been busy lately, me with my classes and she with her streamer job. Days that both of us are free on have been rare recently, so why not enjoy this one together, we thought? Having decided on what to do today, Lamy took a shower first while I cleaned up the dishes. After Lamy finished, I followed suit and did the same. Deciding to spare the reader the description of this event, I got dressed and ready to go out. Had to wait for Lamy for a little bit so she can properly do her makeup and whatever girls do while getting ready, I’m not really an expert on the topic.
	Ten or so minutes of waiting later, and both of us were finally ready to go on a date together. We decided that we would just wander around town a bit, going to any place that catches our eye. After a not too long of a train ride, during which Lamy kept holding on to my arm cutely, we finally arrived to our destination. Of course, Lamy’s first step after getting out of the slightly crowded station building is to start holding my hand, which she did suddenly, making me blush in public. Seeing what she has done, she giggled a bit before we were finally on our way to spend a day having fun together.
	The first place that caught our eye was the arcade, so we decided to spend some quarters. We played several rounds of popular fighting games which were right near the entrance, her winning every single round of those because I generally suck at them. Losing to Lamy isn’t bad at all thought, not even for my huge ego, since I get to see her really happy about it, her smile being so blessed it is able to heal wounds and such. One thing I am good at, though, is the claw game machine, something which took Lamy’s attention as soon as she saw it. I wanted to show off a bit, so I told her I would get whichever plushie she wanted from it, there being numerous different ones on display. Being from a cold and snowy place, she obviously chose a cute polar bear one. After a couple of tries, I managed to get the said bear, the happiness in her voice thanking me was clearly audible as she hugged me with one arm, the other one holding the toy she’s probably going to cuddle with while in bed. Just the thought of it is cute enough to make me blush.
	Having obtained the spoils from the claw machine, we decided to make our way to the fast-food place, both of us craving a meal. You see, despite this date lasting for only two paragraphs so far, the actual time that has passed since we left our place was several hours. Crazy how the author can bend time to his will, huh? That being said, we sat down outside and ordered a burger and fries each, placing the bear plushie on the chair next to us. While eating, we discussed regular topics most couples do, such as how much we loved each other and where we should go next to end our date off. Joking around about visiting an amusement park despite no such thing being open at the time, we finally decided to just take a stroll in the park, perhaps sit down and enjoy the sunset.
	And so we did just that, luckily, there was a park pretty close by, so we didn’t have to walk too much after a makeshift lunch we had. Enjoying the warm, calm weather and looking at the clear, orange sky colored that way because of the sun setting, Lamy and I slowly paced around the bit of green nature that was in the city, deciding to sit down on a bench after getting a bit tired from adventuring around the whole day. As we sat ourselves next to each other, looking at the trees and bushes covering the sides of the paths we’ve been taking, Lamy held my hand, getting my attention. Having turned my head to look at her, I realized exactly what she planned on doing; my head was in the perfect position for her to peck me on the lips and giggle cutely after seeing me blush again, like the same wasn’t happening to her face as well.
“I love you…” Lamy said quietly, looking at me in the eyes and still blushing, her words making both of us blush even more.
“I love you too, Lamy,” I replied, not really helping either of ours blush situations at the moment.
“So… umm… Should we return home now? It’s getting pretty late already?” she then asked, clearly trying to change the subject from the usual lovey-dovey blushfest we usually have when we start talking about each other in that way.
“Y-yeah, we really should, huh? We don’t want to miss our train home.”
	So we made our way back to the train station, taking what I assume was the exact same train we took while on our way here, just with way less people in it. Lamy and I sat next to each other and she leaned her head on my shoulder and closed her eyes to rest a bit. I responded by placing my hand around her shoulder and giving her a kiss, wishing our travel home lasted a bit longer than it did. Sadly, my wish wouldn’t come true since it’s still the same route the train has to take, so us reaching our destination also meant me being robbed of enjoying Lamy rest on me. Curse you, flow of time! That being said, we made our way home, talking about all the fun we had today, but also discussing what we’re going to eat for dinner, given that both of our meals we had today were not exactly too big or nutritious. In the end, we decided that she would cook today while I’m taking care of some unfinished homework I had piling up for a bit.
	Time passed and I checked in on Lamy cooking every once in a while, hoping she was preparing something nice for us. And she did just that, preparing food adored by every orange lazy fat cat, lasagna. Yeah, I had to sneak a Garfield reference somewhere, shush. Anyway, after all of our chores were done, we enjoyed our third meal today together, this time pouring out some sake Lamy’s been keeping for a while now. We got a little tipsy before slowly finishing the entire bottle together and crossing the borders of being not so little drunk. Both of us are really lightweight drinkers in spite of enjoying our little drinking dinner dates the most.
	Somehow, we managed to get ourselves upstairs to our room, but other than that, the memories about the rest of the night are basically non-existent. All I remember is waking up a bit hungover the following day, hugging the bear plushie I got for Lamy together with her, probably about to experience the same slightly ripping headaches I was going through after waking up. But it wasn’t the time for that, I got closer to Lamy and hugged her tightly so she feels safe when she wakes up. I love this half-elf. And she loves me too.
