Between Reigen’s workaholic and admittedly money-hungry lifestyle and your own lifestyle dedicated to helping out Reigen and the others at Spirits and Such, following him around as his assistant, oftentimes life leaves little time for both you and Reigen to indulge in dates and romantic nights out together. In fact, meals out with one another usually boil down to Reigen’s typical after-work ramen ‘treats’ (wherein you pay for your own bowl), which isn’t even one-on-one due to Mob and Serizawa’s usual presences. That, or you both come back home after a long stressful day of fighting spirits and solving unorthodox problems, only to be too exhausted to cook a meal and have a date night in, opting for a greasy MobDonald’s takeout fast food delivery.

That’s why nights like these were such a nice change of pace.

As you finish up applying some red lip tint and some pretty shimmery lip gloss to your already perfect makeup, stood up-close to the mirror in your shared bedroom, Reigen busies himself with tying his tie and humming the tune to a Sinatra romance song that plays in the background as you both get ready. Against all odds, Reigen had managed to organise a date night out at a fancy place on the outskirts of the city. Admittedly it wasn’t wholly his idea, nor yours, but Serizawa’s, noting how you both never seem to get time to each other due to the business, and offering rather bravely for a timid shy guy to take care of the office this evening instead. Both you and Reigen buzzed with excitement and affection as you finished up getting dressed up, Reigen wearing a sleek black suit and red tie as opposed to his usual cheap grey suit and pink tie, yourself dolled up in a nice cocktail dress and some heels, formal attire fit for a swanky sushi place.

Reigen grins as he turns around, finally done fumbling with his tie as he waltzed across the room to you, his eyes widening as he speaks.

“Hey, babe, are you just about ready, reservation is soo–... wow, you look… gorgeous, hon.”
