Hello beautiful. Is it too cheesy to say I can't wait until we have our first official date? Maybe on your next free weekend?

Hi
-
---Text Message Sent 1:25PM---
I don't think it's cheesy. It's rather...sweet? Do you have any weekends free soon? I'd hate to be an imposition.
-
---Text Message Sent 1:26PM---
I am always free on weekends. Perks of making the schedules. Also, little mouse, you are never an imposition.
-
---Text Message Sent 1:32PM---
Oh, ok. I'll let you know if I can get away for a long trip. I don't make my own schedule :/. I wouldn't want to be rude and spring a get together on you last minute.
-
---Text Message Sent 1:35PM---
A cute mouse showing up unannounced at my office or home would be the kind of surprise that I would actually enjoy. But yes, let me know when you've got time and we can meet up for dinner or a show. Or both.
-
---Text Message Sent 1:37PM---
Don't most people scream at the sight of a mouse or at least call for the cat? What do you mean by a show? Like the movies?
-
---Text Message Sent 1:38PM---
I told you I am not most people. I happen to think mice are very cute. Also a fox is also good at catching mice. Well we could go to the movies, but have you ever been to a dinner theater? They can be quite entertaining.
-
---Text Message Sent 1:41PM---
You mean foxes *eat* mice. And I have not.
-
---Text Message Sent 1:44PM---
It sounds interesting though!
-
---Text Message Sent 1:46PM---
Cats also eat mice. And you did not complain about being eaten by a fox the other night, little mouse. I'm glad you think so. There is a place that does dinner theater and curry. Delicious and fun.
-
---Text Message Sent 2:10PM---
Cats?
-
---Text Message Sent 2:12PM---
You said most people would call the cat if they saw a mouse.
-
---Text Message Sent 2:13PM---
Yes to dispose of the mouse.
-
---Text Message Sent 2:14PM---
I don't want to dispose of you, though. I want to keep you. My adorable little mouse.
-
---Text Message Sent 2:17PM---
Good thing you're a fox not a cat then? You mentioned curry...do you like it?
-
---Text Message Sent 2:19PM---
There are several I have tried that I enjoyed very much and a couple that weren't really for me, but that's how it goes. Do you like curry? If you don't I can find another dinner theater that serves something else.
-
---Text Message Sent 2:19PM---
No I love curry! I just was surprised you do. Spicy food doesn't bother you then?
-
---Text Message Sent 2:20PM---
I think life with Ren would be unbearable if I was bothered by spicy food. Why is it such a surprise that I like it?
-
---Text Message Sent 2:21PM---
Lol does he go around forcing you to eat his food? And not a surprise, just nice. We have something in common?
-
---Text Message Sent 2:23PM---
Nothing so extreme, but spicy food does carry a very potent aroma. Personally I find the scent makes my mouth water a bit. Some find it offensive to the senses. Can you even imagine? I'm glad we have something in common. I can't wait to find out what other things we have in common.
-
---Text Message Sent 2:24PM---
I've heard it's a possibility but I can't imagine hating what my mother used to cook when I was a child. So many memories. Oh, how far in advance do you have to book for the theater dinner? We might not be able to do that if I can't find out I can come until the evening of...
-
---Text Message Sent 2:27PM---
Don't worry about that, little mouse. I will have it all taken care of and will be able to get us a table for the theater regardless of advance notice or lack thereof.
-
---Text Message Sent 2:29PM---
I just don't want to cause you or anyone else for that matter any trouble because I have to be last minute. It's hardly fair.
-
---Text Message Sent 2:30PM---
I promise it will not be any trouble for anyone.
-
---Text Message Sent 2:33PM---
Sorry
-
---Text Message Sent 2:43PM---
Why are you sorry? My precious little mouse, banish whatever bad thoughts are running through that sweet mind of yours. I can't wait to see you and to take you on this date. I really think you will enjoy it.
-
---Text Message Sent 2:45PM---
We shall see. I just hope you're not too disappointed by the end of it.
-
---Text Message Sent 2:53PM---
You won't disappoint me, Jain. I just hope that you have a good time. I'm worried about disappointing you. I hope my date idea doesn't turn out to be lame.
-
---Text Message Sent 4:13PM---
You don’t have to worry about me. I’m easy to please and low maintenance. Soggy, discount sandwiches eaten on Nevermore steps would be more than good enough for me. You’ve got nothing to worry about.
-
---Text Message Sent 4:20PM---
Noted. I still think I'd like to make a good first "real" date impression with something slightly more highbrow than soggy sandwiches, though. You deserve to be wined and dined. We'll save the soggy sandwiches for the third date. :P
-
---Text Message Sent 7:21PM---
I don't deserve anything fancy so you can get that right out of your head xD. But your naivety is amusing at least. It's cute how you think you won't grow bored before a third date.
-
---Text Message Sent 9:30AM---
So you're admitting I'm cute? ;)
-
---Text Message Sent 9:33AM---
I said your naivety is cute.
-
---Text Message Sent 9:34AM---
I am wounded. My heart my never recover from such a blow! My face is feeling better though, thanks for asking.
-
---Text Message Sent 9:35AM---
Your face?
-
---Text Message Sent 9:37AM---
Have you already forgotten slamming your door in my face? It really did hurt, you know!
-
---Text Message Sent 9:37AM---
I said I was sorry for that and I meant it. I was not under the impression I had literally slammed it in your face though. In which case I am sorry for that as well.
-
---Text Message Sent 9:40AM---
Given the events following that incident I am compelled to say all is forgiven. You did very much make it up to me after all.
-
---Text Message Sent 9:58AM---
Is that what you thought that was? Making it up to you?
-
---Text Message Sent 10:03AM---
Of course not. I was teasing you. Not very well, apparently. That night was amazing, and meant a lot to me. It gave me hope that maybe you found me as attractive as I find you, and that I might actually have a shot with you.
-
---Text Message Sent 10:12AM---
Don't see why you'd think you wouldn't. I'm not exactly the commander of a squadron or anything fancy XD
-
---Text Message Sent 10:15AM---
Does being a commander really make me a better catch? I would hope you'd be interested in me regardless of rank or position. I know that none of that matters to me. You're beautiful and funny and sweet. I've seen you go toe-to-toe with Ren sassing in chat and you are brilliant. You're a little minx when you want to be and I adore it.
-
---Text Message Sent 10:17AM---
Ha! It doesn't. Just I don't have the same volume of interest pool that you likely generate with status alone. Ren just has easy buttons to push...it doesn't take much XD
-
---Text Message Sent 10:19AM---
Volume is overrated. What is a thousand yammering admirers worth if they're all boring and unappetizing? From the moment Ren introduced me to you I knew that I wanted to get your attention and admiration, and no one else's really mattered until I had at least tried to win yours. Honestly you ignored my attempts to flirt so well that I was beginning to think I really was invisible to you. So far off your radar that I wasn't even a blip.
-
---Text Message Sent 10:21AM---
Ignored is a very...*strong* word wouldn't you say?
-
---Text Message Sent 10:22AM---
I thought I was being fairly of obvious in my flirtations. It didn't really occur to me that you seriously couldn't fathom that I would flirt with you. Makes me wish I had been blunter with my interest in you sooner. I should have asked you on a date, a clear invitation on a date, ages ago.
-
---Text Message Sent 10:23AM---
Can you ever forgive me for that?
-
---Text Message Sent 10:25AM---
Nothing to forgive, Keiko. It's just how I am. I'm not really good with this whole...flirting/dating thingy. If that's a problem, I get it and I won't hold it against you. I just...I don't really know what I'm doing
-
---Text Message Sent 10:29AM---
Am I good at the whole flirting/dating thing? I'm not even sure, honestly. You're the first person I've tried to actually date in...a long time. Jain, I like you, a lot. You being you is definitely not a problem. Just be yourself. With me. That's all anyone really needs to know about dating.
-
---Text Message Sent 10:32AM---
I'd say you were? You at least understand you're flirting...or being flirted with? Goes right over my head XD. And...I think I can do that for now...be me
-
---Text Message Sent 10:37AM---
That's all I could ask for. I hope you have a wonderful day beautiful. I can't wait to see you again. It will be hard to focus on work, but I'll do my best.
-
---Text Message Sent 10:47AM---
Work? What's that? Do cushy commanders even have that? I thought you just delegated that all onto my poor Ren
-
---Text Message Sent 10:50AM---
Ha! It might seem that way from afar, but I assure you I work very hard. Who is still having fun in Samariel while I sit in Nevermore dutifully keeping the Ravens running? Oh that's right, your poor Ren is still having fun. I am more than a little jealous. Besides, aren't you the one constantly telling me that Ren isn't working hard enough and I should give him more work? :p
-
---Text Message Sent 11:10AM---
A clearly overworked Raven! And are you jealous because he's free or just because he's with me? :P
-
---Text Message Sent 11:14AM---
Definitely both.
-
---Text Message Sent 11:17AM---
:( Jokes aside you don't get any time off?
-
---Text Message Sent 11:18AM---
I do get weekends and the occasional vacation, when I can be spared. I did take a couple days this week to see you. Absolutely worth being a little behind on paperwork. I've nearly caught up, actually.
-
---Text Message Sent 11:20AM---
Ah well then I should probably stop bothering you so you can finish the rest. Have a good day, Keiko. Try not to work TOO hard!
-
---Text Message Sent 11:23AM---
You have not been bothering me. I texted you first, remember? Talking to you has made sitting at this desk bearable.
-
---Text Message Sent 11:25AM---
Haha don't sit too long though. Don't want that tail of yours going numb and falling off ;)
-
---Text Message Sent 11:31AM---
It is not in danger of falling off, I promise. If it did you'd never have the chance to pull or pet it again and that would be criminal.
-
---Text Message Sent 11:37AM---
And we all know Fox Lady squeak so funny when it gets tugged XD
-
---Text Message Sent 11:40AM---
You are the only one I want to be tugging on my tail. My squeaks are only meant for you.
-
---Text Message Sent 11:42AM---
Maybe don't have it out during laser tag next time then :P
-
---Text Message Sent 11:44AM---
I will have to keep it hidden for any competitions against you, or else you might take advantage of my weakness. lol
-
---Text Message Sent 11:46AM---
That or accept I am simply the superior Pilot and surrender
-
---Text Message Sent 11:47AM---
I am not the one that will be surrendering, little mouse. It will be very sweet for me when you do.
-
---Text Message Sent 11:50AM---
You will be sorely disappointed then.
-
---Text Message Sent 11:54AM---
I won't think I will be, but we shall see.
-
---Text Message Sent 11:56AM---
So do I get a prize then when I win next time?
-
---Text Message Sent 12:01PM---
What kind of prize do you want?
-
---Text Message Sent 12:03PM---
A favour from the loser?
-
---Text Message Sent 12:06PM---
That is dangerously vague, little mouse. I accept those terms.
-
---Text Message Sent 12:07PM---
Not afraid are you? Wouldn’t want anyone calling the fox a scaredy cat now would we?
-
---Text Message Sent 12:07PM---
I did say that I accepted those terms. You don't scare me little mouse.
-
---Text Message Sent 12:09PM---
Yet
-
---Text Message Sent 12:10PM---
Adorable
-
---Text Message Sent 5:37PM---
Yes you are
