Fei Yen stood near the fountain in the main lobby of Fire Mountain, quietly checking her phone. She was meeting Gabe for lunch and, she assumed, other date-liked activities. She wasn't really sure what "normal" couples typically did, as the whole dating thing was pretty new to her. Still, she was always happy to spend time with her boyfriend (even if the title did still seem a little strange).

Gabe was normally pretty early to places, but this time he was just… on time, like on the dot. That didn't sit right with him, but it was his dad's fault for trying to talk to him about the 'dos and don'ts' that somehow bled into a story about this one girl he had seen back in the day. Thankfully, Gabe had gotten out of the house before that story had gotten out of hand, but damn did it eat up time.
So now, there he was, technically late for his date with Fei considering she was already waiting on him. He waved once he saw her to catch her attention before picking up pace. "Weren't waiting too long were you?" He asked when he got within earshot. Note to self: make sure no one was around right before he was going out from now on.

Fei shook her head. "Nah. You know me. I take tons of time to get ready." She laughed. "This is probably the first time I've ever been early to something."

"First time for everything." Gabe laughed a little in return. At least she wasn't mad at him for making her wait, that was always good. He reached down to take her hand in his. "So, in the mood for anything in particular? I've actually got money on me this time." His dad had paid him for cleaning up the tattoo parlor a couple of days in a row, it would have looked bad if he couldn't pay for their lunch after all now would it?

Fei-Yen thought for a moment, adjusting her grip around Gabe's hand as she did so. "Mm... Burgers!" She tilted her head towards his. "Burgers and fries sound really nice right now."

The blond nodded in agreement, burgers really did sound good now that she mentioned it. "Works for me." With that they went into the direction of the burger place inside FIre Mountain, it was close by. As they walked he looked down at his girlfriend(he still got excited just thinking about that) "So I take it your parents like me? Or did they just hide their disgust extremely well when they met me?" He hadn't really asked about the final judgment by her dads, he had been a little focused on trying to get Satoru to stay quiet about what him and Fei had been up to.

"Neither of my parents are very good at hiding things. They both wear their hearts on their sleeves. So if they didn't like you, you would know." She squeezed Gabe's hand. "Honestly, I think they're just glad that I found someone to kinda "settle down" with, if that makes sense."

Gabe grinned at that. "It does." He was pretty sure his aunt and uncle(though Don wasn't really his uncle, it was just easier to call him that sometimes) felt the same way when his dad had gotten with Satoru forever ago. "Guess that means I should get a medal or something then, huh?" He teased, bumping into her shoulder playfully.

"Pfft. I can think of quite a few rewards that are better than a medal." The Tora began to wiggle her eyebrows provocatively. "If you know what I mean." She laughed. Perhaps someday she would genuinely feel bad for teasing Gabe so much, but that was not today. Frankly, she liked getting him all blushing and awkward. It was downright adorable.

Gabe had to keep himself from smacking his forehead from embarrassment as his cheeks started to warm up a little. Instead he sighed and rolled his eyes, a small smile tugging at the corners of his lips. "Yes, yes I know what you mean." He muttered in response after a moment. They'd only done it the one time so far, but it was enough for him to look forward to the next time. Though maybe he shouldn't be thinking about that at this time and place though...
Thank god the saw food up ahead to distract himself. "C'mon, burgers are waiting." He said to change the topic for now. Knowing Fei though it'd probably just get brought up again pretty soon, but whatever.

It was obvious that Gabe was just trying to change the subject, but Fei decided to let it drop for now. He was sufficiently flustered and that was more than enough to bring a smile to her lips. "So," the Tora chimed, shifting the topic of conversation. "What have you been up to lately?"

Thank god she changed the conversation. "Besides trying to graduate?" He asked before thinking about that for a second. Well, there really only had been one other thing he'd been doing. "Shooting at the range." He blinked a few times before looking back down at Fei as they got in line for food. "Have I ever mentioned the shooting range to you?" He couldn't remember.

"Um..." Fei thought for a moment. "No... No, I don't think you have."

Oh shit, Gabe thought, yeah that made sense now that he thought about it. He hadn’t been getting along with Toru until recently, of course he hadn’t brought up the range to Fei.
“My bad,” he replied with a small awkward laugh. “Yeah, Satoru owns the shooting range in town. We’re… getting along more these days, and with everything that’s gone on it kinda made sense for me to learn.”

Fei took half a second to mull over the information about the shooting range before opting to file it away for later. She was more interested in the ever-evolving relationship between Gabe and his stepfather. "Things seemed kinda tense with you two not too long ago." She glanced over at Gabe and smirked. "So which of you two got less stubborn?"
