Closed Log
Who: Sheska and Koizumi
What: plans, dinner, panic, dating
Where: the police station and Sheska's apartment
When: Tuesday, July 9th
Warnings: cuteness may ensue
Now that school was out, Koizumi finds himself working at the police station nearly every waking moment that he isn't busy with Kyon or Haruhi. It's hard work, and most of his fellow officers are definitively not people he would have normally chosen to spend time with, which doesn't make the job any easier.
Nevertheless, he manages to come in to work every day, not just with a smile on his face, but a genuine smile. And the reason for that is because the first person he sees when he walks in the door - as well as the last person he sees before he leaves for the day - is almost always Sheska, greeting him brightly and optimistically, with a smile to rival one of his on her face. It's not really something he's considered, but it makes his day considerable brighter, to have that smile to look forward to, both coming into work and in the middle of his shift. Even the days she's not working, he's encouraged by the thought of the smile she would be wearing when he walks in.
So it is that Koizumi enters the police station at 6 in the morning, a wide smile on his face as he greets the receptionist.
"Good morning, Sheska-kun. How are you today?"

She goes silent a moment, rearranging her tiles, glancing at the board, and running through a few pages of dictionary in her head, trying to find something that fit. No, no, no... Not quite... Hm. She has a terrible poker face, twisting her lips and occasionally counting out letters silently on her fingers. From time to time she brightens, hesitates, then shakes her head, going back to fiddling. She does have something of an unfair advantage, she reflects at one point. She's memorized the dictionary, so she doesn't have to look up words to know if they're spelled properly.
What if... Yes! That would work! She perks up, picks up her letters and manages to lay them in such a way as to get another twenty-seven points, herself.

He reaches out almost immediately, playing a word that nets him another 18 points. "I assure you, Sheska-kun, you needn't temper your skill. I'd prefer you simply played your best. I'm having fun, and I will be, no matter how many points ahead of me you are.

The game is getting a bit harder, all the obvious spaces taken up or somehow blocked for her particular combination of letters, and many of the most common letters were already on the board, so they had to be worked around rather than added in. She hums thoughtfully and sits back a moment to consider the whole. Her eyes flick back and forth from board to rack to board and back, unconsciously tapping a finger against her lips.
It takes a few minutes of close consideration, but finally she nods and manages a short word laid sidealong to a vertical word, winding up with five words in total and a slightly more robust chunk of points.

He laughs again, smiling and genial, as she plays her word and her score jumps even further ahead of his. "An excellent play, Sheska-kun, well done! You've really gotten a handle on this game."
