He kissed the top of her hand softly. "Don't be nervous....just be yourself. I would never judge you, you have my word." Takeda whispered softly, hoping to reassure her.
----
Raina wasn't sure what she could expect either. But, she went with it, heading to a nearby bench, sitting down where one could sit next to her and one could sit across from her, if they wanted. It was in the shade, at least.

Her face became red at his kiss. She nodded once, "Thank you...," she said softly, though wasn't sure if it was for his words or the kiss, even if it was just her hand.
--
The two followed her. Nago was faster, taking the spot next to her. Ren didn't care, taking the spot opposite without a word.

"You're welcome, my lady." Takeda said, removing his hand, though it almost pained him to, getting on the bike, and handing her a spare helmet. "Ever been on one of these?" he questioned, referring to the bike.
---
Raina smiled a little, taking a simple spoonful of ice cream to start with, content with being in their company. After a moment, she decided to speak. "We did a great thing today...it was an honor to work with you both." she gave, having had this idea to celebrate a little, but wondering if it just sounded better in her head.

"I haven't," she said, taking the helmet and putting it on.
--
"I'm glad that we had your help," Ren said, "We've had to fight in a rescue before, and it's hard. Our duty is to save lives, after all. So it's hard have to stop in order to fight."

"Hold on tight, then." Takeda instructed, willing to help her with getting on if needed.
----
"I see." Raina gave, thoughtfully, "I'm glad we could help, and I'm also happy that you have ways to fight back, as well, since your team does a noble thing for people."

She climbed on and put her arms around him slowly, holding tight.
--
"If we can't, there are enough teams and heroes around to help us," Nago put in.

She could probably feel how built he was, under the t-shirt. But, Takeda wasn't thinking about that, starting the bike and revving up, heading off towards a high-class restaurant he'd thought of, it was by the sea, as he recalled, and had a nice outdoor area, a private seating arrangement with a great view, that he figured she would enjoy.
----
Raina nodded. "That's good to know. You know I'll help, if the opportunity arises again."

She tried not to think about how he felt, she just tried to think about how not to make a fool of herself, and to try to act better than she had been, less nervous.
--
"I think we can all appreciate that," Nago said.
Ren nodded his agreement.

Raina smiled, eating some more of the ice cream
---
Takeda smiled under his helmet. But his intuition would tell him something about her. She wanted to be here, though whether to not disappoint him, or another reason entirely...but he felt that there was possibly another, that she liked. And if that was the case, he wanted to help her find the happiness that she deserved.

Ren and Nago continued to eat in relative silence.
--
Tsubasa had been a crush, and he was with Ritsuka. That had really hurt, that he hadn't just told her that. So this was nice, a nice way to get her mind off of that, even if he was similar in motif to Tsubasa. Maybe this quickly developed crush would go farther.

Feeling that this could be cliche, but deciding to go with it anyway, Raina spoke next. "So how did you two become who you are?"
----
For his part, Takeda sometimes viewed his way with women as both a blessing and a curse. A blessing that he could put smiles on their faces...but a curse, if it got complicated. Maybe he should have thought of that? But it was too late now, and he would *not* betray any such thought on his face, or in his emotions. Instead, he settled back into his groove, getting closer as they drove through streets...

"We both had the same desire to help other people," Ren told her.
--
For now, Aoi was content, having gotten rid of her nervousness, at least.

"I see. Perhaps I'm wondering what your stories are. But if you don't wish to share, I'll respect that." Raina said.
---
Takeda took a deep breath as they left the city proper, turning down a road that led to the restaurant by the sea.

"You want more?" Nago asked.
--
Aoi looked out at the sea, smiling and tightening her grip a little without realizing it.

"If you would like." she gave, evenly. If they wanted to share their stories, or some of it anyway, she would do the same.
---
Takeda felt that and smiled, pulling up to the parking space and parking, turning off the bike, and removing his helmet, leaning back lightly into her tightened arms for a moment. "Well, we're here." he ventured..
