Yuki looked at the pot, and judged that they had at least a few minutes before it really had to be stirred or anything. He smiled with a little bit of embarassment and looked down. He lightly cleared his throat, but looked for Oki's hand with his own...
"The lights, go, out... In my bedroom late at night..." he sang. "The streetlight shines - through the window blinds," he continued, silently asking Oki if she would dance with him here in the vaccant cafeteria... "And when my eyes adjust, to see your face, in a frame beside my bed - there's only one though, that echoes through my head... Do you remember - how we used to - always laugh and play? And are you, still in love, with the me of - yesterday?
Those big blue eyes... Oh, so full of wonder Do they see, me, now? Or still echo thunder? I used to watch your face glow, with joy or with moonlight. Now I'm looking, at a picture, in cold electric light - it's leaving one thought, I can't fight...
Do you remember, how we used to, always laugh and play? And are you still in love... with the me of yesterday?

Oki was surprised, but allowed Yuki to take her hand and began to dance with him as he sang. She was even more surprised that he sang; it wasn't something she would have expected from him. She allowed him to move her in slow circles around the cafeteria as he sang, as the pot bubbled quietly, and she felt a deep sense of contentment.
"You have a wonderful voice," she complimented when he had finished.

Yuki tried to pass it off as nothing. "My jutsu revolves around the manipulation of sound... It's just a training by-product - I wouldn't quit my day job on it..." he was blushing as he moved back over to stir the pot as it was just about to boil over. "You however, are incredibly nimble on your feet..." he said, smiling through the steam of their supper...

Oki smiled. "Another training by-product, I assure you. I use jutsus when I have to but I prefer to avoid them. If I can wear an opponent out physically by making them chase me and dodging their attacks, they're far easier to deal with. It also helps to be nimble if you're going to run at the crack of dawn, and that was one I had to learn the hard way."

"Well... here's a by-product of missions to Mrs. Harmony's," Yuki said, adding a little extra seasoning from an unmarked shaker, just before doling them out into two bowls and bringing their food to one of the closer cafeteria tables...

"Oooo, a secret ingredient?" Oki laughed. "You're spending way too much time out there if she's letting you in on things like that!"
Grabbing two sets of chop sticks, Oki followed Yuki out to the table.
"To co-operative cooking!"

Yuki laughed. "Not like she'd tell me what it actually is..."
He sat down across from Oki. "Now... if you'll endulge me one last bit of showing off..."
Yuki took out two cups and formed his hand seals... slowly, they began to fill with what looked like shaved ice which heaped up in a nice little cone shape. "Do you like cherry?" Yuki asked, sliding across cherry syrrup for the snow cone...

Oki nodded and added a liberal amount of the syrup to the shaved ice. "Very much. I curled up with a bowl of them and a book the other night to relax while I had the apartment to myself. I think it may become a regular indulgence."

Yuki's helping was more liberal still, and he set the syrup back on the table between them in case Oki wanted more later. "To co-operation then," he said cheersing the snow cones, and took a bite, and laughed at how rediculous they would look to anyone outside of this room...

"To co-operation!"
Oki enjoyed a bite of her snow cone before picking of her chopsticks and bowl of ramen.

It certainly didn't have anything on rammen Mrs. Harmony or Choji would prepare, but Yuki was decently impressed with how it had turned out in the end, and even more so, enjoyed the company he unexpectedly got to share it with...
"Going to come swimming too? I'll even put the heat on in the pool for you to remove the skim of ice over it," he teased. "Or do you have to get back to classes?"

Oki shook her head. "Nah, I'm done with classes for the day but I honestly hadn't been expecting to go swimming so I'm not exactly prepared. I'd have to stop by my apartment if I'm going to do any swimming with you so I an grab a suit."

Yuki smiled. "At least it wasn't a no..." he said and gave a little chuckle. "Sure, we can stop by - supposed to wait half an hour or something like that anyway aren't we?" he said quickly finishing off his supper. He had been very hungry after his chakra exercises...

"So they say, It's like any exercise, really. You should let your stomach settle before you get yourself too worked up, and this means I can finally get your jersey back to you, too."

Yuki got a wide, stupid grin on his face remembering what she looked like in it. "Tired of it kicking around? Don't want it as a lazy shirt or something?" he asked, knowing full well that if he hadn't worn it in all these years, that wasn't lible to change...
