They had kept the fact that they were dating a secret from everyone but it was not as if they were completely oblivious of it. Hinowa would sometime tease Tsukuyo about it while making it seem like she hadn't caught a whiff of their relationship and it was practically Kagura's favorite thing to make them spill it out. Shinpachi would just watch from the sidelines but he too, would sometimes tag along with the Red head and Sun of Yoshiwara to stalk the 'couple' while they went out on little secretive dates.

It had been their thing for quite some time now, The silver permed samurai, would drop by from time to time at Hinowa's shop, pick her up on his scooter and take her out for some deserts or just to see the surface world.

Today in particular, they were going out for deserts which was Gintoki's favorite out of the above two, because before they started dating whenever he asked Tsukuyo to try any sort of confectionery she would decline saying that she disliked sweet things although now (because of a little deal between them) if he asked her to eat something sweet and she liked it, she would give him reward of sorts. So far the winning deserts were cakes and cookies. And the rewards were, well, more sugary things...

He was taking her out for parfaits this time around and Tsukuyo was pretty sure that she would hate them. There was no way in hell she could ever like parfaits. They were too freaking sweet. But because of her stupid bet with Gintoki she was obliged to atleast try them.

They reached a small antique looking shop with simple inlaid ivory tables and chairs. The floor was wooden with the walls decorated with wallpaper.

"So which one, strawberry or chocolate?" Gintoki asked her while seating himself in a chair close to the window and beckoning her to sit in the chair opposite to him.

"You can decide, this time I won't lose, you can bet on that." Tsukuyo smirked at him.

"Acting big aren't you, you can hate all the deserts in the world but parfaits are hard to resist. Their sublime taste and texture accompanied by fruits, nuts, ice cream and all kind of toppings and how it just melts in your mouth! you can't possibly resist it." Gintoki nodded twice as if confirming some sort of fact.

"We'll see about that."

Twenty minutes later, their order of two strawberry parfaits arrived and the cold desert was currently laid out infront of them. Tsukuyo picked up her spoon and started to dig into the smooth texture of the vanilla ice-cream, she also managed to get some strawberry syrup on top of it. Slowly bringing in towards her mouth she looked over at Gintoki, who was staring intently with sweat beads forming on his forehead. The sight of him made her bubble up with laughter inside.

sweet...

It was the first thing that entered her mind as she put the spoon into her mouth and tried to relish the taste of the desert. It was exactly as she had imagined it to be.

"So...?" Gintoki leaned in a bit and blinked a few times.

Tsukuyo set the spoon down and looked over at him with an expression less face.

"Told you so. I don't like it."

Gintoki thumped his head on the table as a sign of defeat,

"No, It can't be..."

But soon enough he got back up quickly as the thought of her lying to him entered his mind.

"You better not be lying!"

Tsukuyo shook her head lightly as Gintoki proceeded to whack his head onto the table once again.

"It can't be true... Parfaits... parfaits are-"

"-not tasty at all." She completed his sentence.

"That's not what I was going to say." Gintoki replied in miserable tone. He looked over to her, expecting to see a triumphant look on her face but was greeted with a hand ruffling his hair.

"Gintoki..."

"Hm?"

"Thanks, for bringing me out here once in a while." She smiled the most beautiful smile.

And Gintoki could've sworn that for a second there, winning didn't matter because he already got his reward.


It might not be very good but look forward to the other ones. Reviews please.
