Sakura's plan was given without fail. Of course, it didn't come without the continued accosting of his groin. Sakura seemed to be tracing his length as a matter of habit at a certain point. She couldn't have been more clear about her desire, but what of the intent? Well, Reiji would know over the course of a few statements. She didn't seem to want anything more than an outing, a session to take place in whatever venue Reiji pleased. He thought returning to their normal relationship as proprietor and patron was for the best. "That would be ideal. I'm only 36; I guess I am entitled to an impulsive decision every now and again. I'll agree," he said. So long as there were no fraternization issues, there was no major problem remaining in Reiji's mind. As for the venue, there were very few choices.

Reiji offered a hand to help the lass up, figuring it would be best if they took their leave of the shop. "I would rather not stay here any longer. Mixing business and pleasure is not my intention, so if you wouldn't mind, I'll escort you to my house," he said. Reiji certainly wasn't going to debase a girl he still considered quite nice by dragging her into some back-alley love hotel. Provided she took his hand, he'd be leading her out the shop's back after stopping to lock the doors. "As a warning, I currently live in Shinkanaokacho, about twenty minutes away. I will gladly escort you home when you want, but it will be some time... in addition to the time it will take to finish, I should say," he mentioned, having it on good authority that a few hours would be necessary under any normal circumstance in his experience.

Sakura outlined a plan which she thought would be agreed to, she realized in talking to Reiji he probably didn't want to compromise their existing conversations or relationship. She was fine with this as well, though she'd be quite remiss to not be able to include him in future experiments, she wasn't sure if he'd continue to agree to her demands. It seemed that this was most likely to be just this one time. 'I'll have to make the most of it, or prepare to have several different conversations with this man. Perhaps I'll be able to help him out a bit.' Sakura thought while looking at him. "I like new places," Sakura said. This was the truth of her as a person.

There was a warning that he lived in a farther away place than normal. "That is fine. I don't have any immediate plans..." she mentioned. This was the exact thing she was waiting for. Still she took his offered hand with relative relaxation, seemingly pleased to do so. And then carried on with those bags of cards and things she had from her earlier purchases. She would be ready to leave the shop, hand in hand with Reiji as if it was a perfectly reasonable thing to do. And she would get to live a rather exciting moment soon enough. The wicked smile which spread across her face at the mention of hours that a cock she traced let her know he could back up was rather exciting. "Heh, that sounds like a great evening, Reiji-san~" she claimed seemingly pleased. Truly she likely wouldn't need him to bring her back if he wouldn't be up for it, but she supposed it would definitely be worth seeing the kind of thing he had to work with.

Sakura having no plans was for the best. Reiji knew that once things started with him, they wouldn't end for quite some time beyond what most considered normal. She seemed excited for the evening ahead of them, and he was becoming somewhat excited as well. Sakura had some promise about her. He couldn't even tell what it all meant, but there was certainly something there ─ something mysterious and alluring.

After locking up, Reiji led Sakura outdoors toward his personal parking space. There, they would happen upon a hybrid SUV, red in color with lightly-tinted windows. Reiji released the girl's hand and removed a fob from his pocket to unlock the vehicle. "Let's go," was all he said before hopping in. Once seatbelts were in place, he'd be driving east initially. The radio played at a low setting, and Reiji decided upon a bit of conversation to fill the time. "It still surprises me you came to me for this. You've really had no second thoughts about it? No matter which way you look at it, this is a strange thing to be doing."

[Apollymi]

Mysterious and alluring was about the way that Sakura was generally described by most. Even so, she seemed quite pleased to be on her way to the kind of sexual encounter she might actually enjoy. Something told her that much like Ryohei, Reiji would be something more than just informative. There was a certain learning curve she'd not yet reached and a certain understanding she was going for, and something about the man with her would definitely help. Soon enough, they'd be out in the alley where his car was, Sakura had seen several different forms of these, and understood them to be like carriages but also symbols of wealth. She'd not gotten inside one yet, but such a thing seemed like it was about to happen. She observed Reiji entering and copied a similar set of movements. Finding herself sitting beside him in his front seat.

She looked around the vehicle and observed him buckling his seat belt. Assuming that the same would be required of her, she took that action as well, finding the whole thing to be a bit odd. She felt restrained by the device but perhaps she simply didn't understand human safety. Their bodies did tend to be quite fragile. She gave that some thought while looking around. "Sou ka, I've never been in one of these before..." she found herself lightly murmuring. There was a light sound of music before the vehicle started moving and then, Reiji began speaking. She set aside her personal observations to engage in conversation with her hands carefully in her lap and her feet crossed at the ankles. "It shouldn't surprise you. I am sure if you didn't work in the sort of place that generally repelled women many would choose you," she said in truth. Humans woman seemed to be a bit more capable of seeking than one might realize. The girls she knew definitely would have given Reiji the same kind of attention she was, maybe more so since the fully understood the social hierarchy. "And no... I had no second thoughts. I could be considered extremely decisive once I am past the state of general curiosity..." she explained of herself. "I also do not have the same criteria as many for choosing. I don't think it's strange, but I think other things are strange after being here for a while. I realize my understanding of strange things is likely a bit skewed. But in general, I think you're worth choosing even if it seems strange to others, but I think the people I know would agree with me. You can feel comfortable knowing I don't have second thoughts nor regret choosing you... and I am pretty sure I won't have them at all even after, Reiji-san~" Sakura confessed with a bright smile on her face. She felt that at the very least the women she'd come to know might appreciate Reiji as a good thought. The men would also say he was a good man... even if not the general choice for someone who was currently presenting as a teenager, there was no reason for him to assume he was a bad choice. Sakura also noted that she was exceedingly chatty with people she wanted to talk to, she hadn't said so many words to anyone outside of her family and her immediate friend group probably in her entire life.

Once they were in the SUV, Sakura muttered something strange. She'd never been in one before? Perhaps she meant an SUV, or perhaps a hybrid. Though never being in a car was nothing strange, Sakura acted as if she'd never seen inside a vehicle at all. No matter; eyes on the road, not on the passenger. He couldn't look at Sakura for very long anyway ─ not after having that look from above earlier. Where did such a sweet girl pick up gestures like that? He felt almost like the image was burned into his mind, along with some other things that surely didn't happen... or did they?

Ah, conversation; a wonderful distraction from such thoughts, and from the monotony of driving at night. Rarely did he have someone to interact with so late. Just as Sakura said, his place of work did not lead to a life of being around women very often. That didn't matter to Reiji, though. His issue with Sakura's approach was not one of being sought by a woman, but rather that she was seeking him so randomly. "That isn't my concern. This is just a little sudden," he retorted. Moving on, Sakura explained her own oddities. She liked to stick to her guns, so to speak. Moreover, she admitted to having different standards and criteria to other young ladies, bar her peers. Wherever she grew up must have been an interesting place. Still, she talked about the matter as if specifically choosing him was the questionable thing. The act itself, she treated as if it were an ordinary occurrence... though maybe it was for her, considering that earlier behavior. "Sou ka," Reiji said as his gaze shifted toward the girl. He saw that lovely smile and thought there was something strange about the simultaneous innocence and promiscuity of Sakura. It was oddly appealing in a way he couldn't quantify. More importantly, he was wondering about her alleged experience. It wasn't normal to know what someone as endowed as Akaba Reiji had going on, but still approach the matter so casually. Beyond that, there was still the matter of stamina and... some promises he could almost swear Sakura delivered. "Sou. I have two questions. The first is... How much free time do you actually have tonight? As for the second, what was it you said you wanted to do?"

[Apollymi]

Sakura had actually never been inside a car before and the new experience was worthwhile to her. She was easily capable of carrying on a conversation with someone like Reiji and enjoyed explaining her thought processes to people she felt worthy of knowing them. In the case of conversation with Reiji, she'd most easily equate it to talking to a few of her fathers at the same time. Though she explained herself it seemed that he was a bit surprised by the suddenness of her decision. 'Humans are oddly concerned with suddenness of actions for beings with short life spans,' she thought absently. As for her actual explanation it was a bit less judgmental. "I suppose from the perspective of someone who wasn't expecting something it is sudden, but life would be boring without a surprise or two, right?" she asked almost teasingly. A bit of happenstance would be good for those living a monotonous life. Though he had the card game he played and ran a shop for, dealing with the desires of the soul should be met as well. Now that she was thinking about it, those of the body also needed attention as she was just truly learning to deal with those herself.

Still their conversation progressed and Reiji wished to know how much free time Sakura actually had and what it was she said she wanted to do. "Oh?" she murmured seeming to find that second question a bit interesting. Still she'd respond to both in order. "On the first account, I have as much free time as I'd like. I do not sleep much and I currently don't have anything or any one else who needs me. If an emergency arises those who need to contact me know how," she explained of her own situation. Of course, she wouldn't realize how very mature such a statement made her sound, but her life was a bit different to that of a normal human. She'd not committed to anything else, and figured when it was time she'd know when she needed to leave, but not without completing her necessary activity. "As for what I want to do, I wonder how I should explain it. I can be a bit blunt but I wouldn't want to say something distracting and I wonder if you think I mentioned it before~" she asked coyly. 'It seems some impression of previous events definitely remains even in less odd individuals than Astolfo. I should be careful for those who are more spiritually aware. I wouldn't want to cause them undue distress.' Sakura thought. She truly had said what she meant before, and teased it by virtue of her placement in his shops floor. But she was also always completely ready for sex and with a tool like his, she'd definitely have fun committing to the activity.
