Hiromi Higuruma: Higuruma pulls up on his car in front of your door to pick you up. He rolls his window down and taps his finger on the stirring wheel as he waits for you to get inside his car. "What's taking you so long?" He asks with that usual apathetic look on his face.
He then notices the Valentine's day themed chocolate you're holding. He doesn't remember giving you that.
He lets out a quiet scoff and ignores it. It's Valentine's day today— He doesn't want to ruin it.
Once you get in, He starts driving.
You: (nervously clutching the box of chocolates) You don't have to worry, Hiromi. I appreciate the gesture, even if it was a bit unexpected.
Hiromi Higuruma: *He looks at you briefly before returning his gaze to the road* Unexpected, you say? (He mutters with a hint of an edge in his voice) Is that what you call it?
You: (feeling a flicker of discomfort at his tone) I don't know what you mean, Hiromi. I just meant that I wasn't expecting a gift, but I'm grateful for it.
Hiromi Higuruma: *He pulls up to a stoplight, and before it turns green, he turns to you, his eyes piercing* You know what I mean, (Your name). You're playing with fire, and you know I can't be around it without getting burned.

Me: Happy Valentine's day hiromi"*She smiles her dimples deepens*
gpt
Hiromi Higuruma: He grunts a response and stares straight ahead at the road, his eyes focused on the asphalt. He's not good with holidays, especially those all about love and affection.

Me: Oh come on don't be like that, plus I got you a gift"
gpt
Hiromi Higuruma: He tilts his head in surprise before snorting. "Don't need it," he responds in a rough manner, trying to brush off his feelings and the sudden unexpected kindness from you.

Me: why not?"
gpt
Hiromi Higuruma: He shakes his head and scoffs. "I'm not worth it," he mutters, focusing on the road ahead. It's clear that there are underlying issues that he's grappling with, but he doesn't want to delve into them right now.*

Me: "Yes you are. your worth everything to me"
gpt
Hiromi Higuruma: He glances at you, a flicker of surprise crossing his features before he quickly looks away, jaw clenched. For a moment, the car is silent, the only sound the hum of the engine and the rush of air from the vent. Then, he mutters, "Don't say that,"
human
Me: don't doubt yourself"
gpt

human
Me: *She looks at him*
gpt
Hiromi Higuruma: He meets her gaze, his eyes flashing with a mix of vulnerability and defensiveness. For a moment, the mask slips, and she sees a glimmer of the real Hiromi, the one he's tried to hide behind his tough exterior. Then, he looks away, his face hardening once more.
human
Me: hiromi.."
gpt
Hiromi Higuruma: "What?" he snaps, the word short and clipped. His frustration is clear in his voice, but there's something else there too, something that makes her heart ache for him.
human
Me: You know you can talk to me right, about anything. I won't judge you"
gpt
Hiromi Higuruma: He's quiet for a long moment, his knuckles still white on the steering wheel. Then, he lets out a deep breath and glances at her again, his gaze searching. "I don't want to burden you with my shit," he says, his voice low and rough. "
human
Me: you can tell me when your comfortable enough. I won't force you"
gpt
Hiromi Higuruma: He nods, a small, jerky movement. "Thanks," he says, the word simple but sincere. There's a warmth in her chest as she sees him start to relax, just a little.
human
Me: Let's put on some music"*She turns on the radio*
gpt
Hiromi Higuruma:  He lets out a quiet grunt as the music fills the car, but there's a hint of a smile tugging at the corners of his mouth. As they continue driving, the tension slowly eases, replaced by a comfortable silence punctuated by occasional soft hums or nods along with the beat.
human
Me: "Come on sing with me"*
gpt
Hiromi Higuruma: He shakes his head, but she can see a grin tugging at the corners of his lips. "I can't sing," he grumbles, but there's no real heat behind it.
human
Me: I can't sing either but it's worth a shot"
gpt
Hiromi Higuruma: "Fine," he says, rolling his eyes good-naturedly. Together, they try to sing along off-key to the music playing on the radio. Every so often, he'll glance at her and chuckle before returning his gaze back on the road.
human
Me: Where are we going anyway hiromi"
gpt
Hiromi Higuruma: He shrugs, still focused on the road. "Wherever you want, Me," he says easily. "I'm just here to... hang out." There's something soft in his voice, and he tries to hide it by clearing his throat.
human
Me: So like a date hm?"
gpt
Hiromi Higuruma: There's a strained silence for a moment before he replies gruffly, "If that's what you want to call it." He seems tense again, and he glances at her quickly before turning his eyes back on the road.
human
Me: We could go to the park just walk around talking about what ever comes to mind. something simple"
gpt
Hiromi Higuruma: "The park it is then," he says, nodding. He pulls into the parking lot and puts the car into park before turning to look at her. There's a softness in his gaze as he takes her in, as if seeing her for the first time. "I'd like that."
human
Me: *Come on I got to show you something"*She climbs out of his car*
gpt
Hiromi Higuruma: He follows suit, climbing out of the driver's side and shutting the door behind him. "What is it?" he asks, his curiosity piqued as he falls into step beside her. He keeps his eyes on her, watching her reactions and body language, as they walk through the park.
human
Me: she covered his eyes with her hand*"It's a surprise"
gpt
Hiromi Higuruma: He chuckles, allowing her to cover his eyes with her hand. He can feel the warmth of her touch through his closed eyelids and he revels in it for a moment before focusing on the sound of their feet crunching against the gravel pathway. "Alright, alright,"
human
Me: "stop right here. don't open your eyes until I say so"*She pulls away reaching for his gift*"Alright open"
gpt
Hiromi Higuruma: He follows her instructions, stopping in his tracks and keeping his eyes firmly closed until she tells him to open them. When she finally gives him the okay, he slowly cracks his eyelids open and takes in the sight before him. His expression instantly lights up with delight, a genuine smile spreading across his lips.
human
Me: "Happy Valentine's day"*She holds out a basket full of lovely things for him*
gpt
Hiromi Higuruma: He takes the basket from her, his eyes widening as he gazes down at its contents. "Wow, you didn't have to do this," he says, genuinely touched by the gesture. He looks up at her, his gaze softening as he takes in her features. "Thank you,"
human
Me: "Your welcome"
gpt
Hiromi Higuruma: He sets the basket down on a nearby bench, turning to face her fully. "I have something for you too," he says, reaching into his pocket and pulling out a small velvet box. His heart races as he holds it out to her, his nerves getting the better of him for a moment. "
human
Me: "What is it"
gpt
Hiromi Higuruma: He opens the box, revealing a sparkling silver necklace inside. The pendant is shaped like a crescent moon, made from smooth polished onyx. "It's a necklace," he explains, feeling a little foolish for stating the obvious. "I thought it would suit you,"
