[ December comes and paints the town over in rainbow lights. It seems like ever year in Tokyo, there's no expense spared on illuminations and they get brighter and even more colorful every single time. For a lovey-dovey gachikoi group like B-Komachi, Christmas is usually one of the busiest times of the year for them but Saitou's been unusually lax this time around. He'd made some excuses about Ai having a busy year and giving her some time to breathe, but Ai suspects he's taking a bit of a calculated loss - because Ai would've made her own plans for Christmas anyway.
It's not quite a true white Christmas yet - too cold for snow, the weatherman says - but everything is frosted over in white as it is and Ai finds that she likes this better. It's so cold, in fact, that bundled up in a scarf and coat and after dark, even without covering her face, nobody recognises her. Nobody even looks twice. To anybody who gives her a passing glance, Hoshino Ai looks like any other girl on a Christmas Eve date. ]
Shouuuu! Did I keep you waiting?
[ They're meeting a little ways away from the lights they're going to see and Ai knows it's a bit silly to make him go on head - they live together, after all. But there's something about actually coming to meet him for a date that makes her feel kind of fluttery and excited. For just one night, Hoshino Ai gets to be a regular girl like anybody else. ]
