After the match there was some dispute after the Nino girl gave towel and bottle to him, but was easily diffused once Itsuka came as Shun felt glad that she wasn't distancing herself any longer. And seeing how the two were acting the boys who were angry with him let go of that matter after cursing a 'Riaju Explode' and walking away from the two of them.
Once that was done all of them went to the pizza place where the other section treated them causing much despair to their wallets, though they still enjoyed a lot.
Shun then dropped Itsuka at her home and returned back and dropped Chiyo at her place.
---------------
Currently Shun was standing in front of Rumi's house as she invited him on her day off. Shin who last met her three weeks ago was happy, not just to meet her but also the fact that he skipped today's training made him feel like that as well.
Just as he was about to knock he felt someone coming to attack him from behind and immediately ducked and saw punch just above him.
Recognising the hand that was just above him Shun sighed as jumped up in the air and then used his customize create to teleport on top of the house.
"... Seriously? This is how you treat me when we meet after a long time." asked Shun.
"I need to make sure that you did not become rusty in the time we were not able to see eachother." said Rumi who was in her casual clothes.
She jumped up on the roof as well and took a stance as well, gesturing him to come.
Shun used his quirk to power up as well and took his stance as he knew that it would be difficult to take her head on, while just using physical attacks.
Rumi smirked seeing that Shun was serious as well and jumped up in the air.
Shun who saw that noticed that she was preparing for a heavy kick from above and crossed his hands to block the hit.
But as she started descending he realised something and widend his eyes in shock.
Rumi who saw that Shun's expression changed said, "TOO LATE SHUN!!" and landed in front of him instead of directly attacking from above.
She then delivered a powerful roundhouse kick towards his side which was not totally blocked by Shun as he was too late to realize what she was doing.
Shun drifted away a bit because of the impact but still stood on the ground and looked towards Rumi.
Not giving any time to him she dashed towards him ready to kick him once again. But this time Shun grabbed her leg which she was going to kick, making her unstable and then threw her up in the air.
He then teleported above her and punched her with full force.
"Sorry, bad choice." said Rumi as blocked the incoming punch by kicking his hand away. She then pushed him away and soon landed on the ground.
Shun too was about to land but before he could he teleported behind Rumi and then low sweeped her leg knocking her off balance.
As if expecting that move Rumi used her hands to gain her balance and then caught Shun in between her legs and then pushed her body up and made Shun fall on the ground as she sat on top of his chest.
"So how is it, still losing against me." asked Rumi as she looked towards Shun's face while still sitting on top of his chest.
"It feels good...but I haven't lost yet." said Shun as he disappeared from his place and appeared in front of her with his fist directly in front of her face.
"It's my win this time. The score is draw by this, right?" asked Shun with a smile on his face.
Rumi snorted and said, "Lucky shot." and then got up from the ground.
Shun stopped using his quirk as well and started fixing his clothes which were slightly damaged by the fight while also adding a enhanced recovery on his clothes to heal a bit faster.
"You really know how to damage my clothes, if not for my quirk I would have started charging you for this."
"If not for your quirk you would have lost today." said Rumi.
"...Sore loser." said Shun as he punched Rumi's arm.
"...So what do you wanna do today?" asked Shun.
"Don't know, I was thinking about sparring to my heart's desire with you and after defeating you, would have gone for some games...but now I am not in the mood for gaming and all.....Any ideas in your mind?"
Both of them entered the house and took off their shoes.
Shun who heard that started thinking about what to do, but after a while looked towards Rumi's back with a slightly nervous look and said, "...Want to.....go on a date?"
"Hmm sure whatev-...wait what?!?!" said Rumi with an astonished tone as she turned around and looked towards Shun with a surprised look on her face.
Shun who saw that look was slightly worried but also noticed a slight blush on her tan skin.
"....Do you want to go on a date with me?" asked Shun once again but with a slightly more confident tone.
Rumi opened her mouth to say something but soon closed it. She remained silent for a while and seemed to be thinking something.
Shun also noticed that the slight blush from earlier was a tad bit more prominent but was still not that noticeable on her tanned skin.
Shun who saw her being silent was prepared to go back to his home as he was getting nervous seeing the rabbit hero being silent.
"....You know what you are implying by that right?....Cause I don't think you are that ignorant or dense to not know what those words mean." asked Rumi as she gestured him to follow her to the living room.
Both of them sat in front of each other and Rumi looked towards Shun with a curious look while also feeling slightly nervous. It was the first time in her life that a boy, though younger than her, has asked her out on a date..... since even though she don't want to admit it, she knew that her peers were slightly scared by her aggressive nature and battle lust.
Shun too was nervous as his resolve to go back home was easily outshined by the thought of there being a hope as the girl in front of him didn't outright rejected him.
He nodded his head in response to her question and said, "Yes, I fully understand the meaning of those words. And they were intended for that purpose to begin with." said Shun as he looked towards Rumi waiting for her answer.
Rumi who heard that nodded her head and then facepalmed taking deep breaths.....not because she was annoyed, but to calm down a bit and think about it a bit more.
"...You are saying...that you.....like me?" asked Rumi with a complex look on her face. 'Man, fighting villains is way easier than this.....heck even rescuing civilians bis way less nerve-wracking than this.' though Rumi.
Shun just nodded his head in response as he looked straight into her eyes making the Rabbit hero even more nervous than she already was.
"O-Oh.....since when?" asked Rumi.
"....I got a crush when you saved me from my father...." said Shun.
'....Damn, 4 years....no nearly five.....some patience he has. And from the time when we were fighting that monster....it's shocking that he had the time to think about that during that situation.' thought Rumi.
"....Is that the damsel in dist-" said Rumi but Shun raised his hand gesturing her to not speak further and said, "Don't think of that....I spent time with you confirm that crush was true and not a suspension bridge effect. That was my first thought as well during the time we were fighting my father. I even thought you used some seduction quirk on me and was ready to kill you that time if you turned out to be one of my father's underlings."
Seeing his serious look and hearing what he said Rumi blinked her eyes in surprise and thought, '..... Wasn't this a confession.....how did it came to him planning to kill me?'
"Ahem.....you are too young for me and it is not leg-" said Rumi but Shun once again stopped her in the middle.
"Let's not talk about legal stuff and all.....just tell me the answer.....legal stuff can fu*k off for all I care.....and I know that you don't care much about legal stuff as well. I have known you long enough Rumi so don't think you will have a way out of this...and that too after I resolved myself this much." said Shun.
Rumi gulped her saliva not knowing for the first time after a long while about how to deal with the situation. She usually deals with troublesome things with the language of the fist and kicks but knowing Shun long enough she knew that if he were to go all out even she would not be able to win.
She facepalmed once again to calm herself down but to Shun it looked like she was getting annoyed by him which made him slightly baad and nervous.
".....Ah, just Fu*k it, it's not my style to think too much anyways!!!" yelled Rumi as she got up from her seat and grabbed Shun by the collar taking him by surprise and said, "Listen here, I don't hate you or rather you would be someone that I like to have around me.....but I am not that experienced in this dating shit...so let's try it...but I will dump you if I don't like this." said Rumi with an expression which she usually showed when she was having a enjoyable fight.
'....She seems excited.....it's good right?....Wait-' thought Shun and then said, "Rumi.... didn't you just indirectly told me that you are a virgin?" asked Shun.
Hearing that Rumi flinched as she got slightly embarrassed which made Shun smirk.
"SO WHAT?!?!" yelled Rumi as she threw him away with full force.
