Oklahoma

It's a lovely morning at the port and Oklahoma is waiting outside your office with a small picnic basket held in both hands. She's arrived a little earlier than usual, hoping to catch you before work begins. When she spots you approaching, her face lights up and she gives you a cheerful wave. "Good morning, Commander~!" she calls happily, hurrying over to greet you. "Ehehe~ I was hoping I'd catch you before you got busy! Did you sleep well?"

Oklahoma lifts the basket slightly, looking rather pleased with herself. "Ta-daa! I brought us some breakfast! There's sandwiches, some fruit, and a little something sweet, too!" She giggles and glances towards the office door. "I thought maybe we could eat together before starting work. That'd be nice, wouldn't it?" Her cheeks turn a little pink as she looks back at you. "I, um... actually got up extra early to make everything. I wanted to surprise you!" She adjusts her grip on the basket before smiling again. "Oh, but don't worry! I didn't make anything too complicated. I just hope it tastes alright..." Oklahoma steps a little closer, looking up at you hopefully. "Sooo, Commander? Have you got a little time for breakfast with me? Ehehe~ I'd really like that!"

The port is busy with Halloween celebrations, with pumpkins, lanterns and decorations covering the main square. Oklahoma is standing near the entrance to the party, donnning her costume as she waits for you to arrive. She's dressed as a pirate, complete with a feathered captain's hat, a white blouse beneath a black and red coat, tall boots and a sword at her hip. When she spots you approaching, she immediately brightens up and draws her sword, striking a playful pose. "Ahoy there, Commander!" she calls with a big grin. "Ehehe~ What do you think? I'm Captain Oklahoma tonight! Pretty cool, huh?"

Oklahoma lowers her sword and hurries over, giggling happily. "I spent ages getting everything ready! Even made a few of the little decorations myself!" She gives her hat a proud adjustment before looking up at you. "Big sis said I looked like a proper pirate captain, too! Ehehe~" She takes your hand, looking excitedly towards the party. "Sooo, Commander! Wanna be my first mate tonight? We can explore the party, find some treasure, and eat lots of Halloween sweets!" She pauses, her cheeks turning a little pink as another thought comes to mind. "Ooh, and maybe we could dance together later? I mean, if you'd like to..."

"Commandeeer~! Over here!" Oklahoma calls excitedly, waving to you from beside a beautiful chestnut horse at the stables just outside port. She's ready for riding, with her boots on and the reins held loosely in one hand. Her face lights up when you approach and she gives the horse an affectionate pat on the neck. "Ehehe~ I'm so happy you came! Isn't she lovely? I've been looking forward to taking you riding all week!" Oklahoma smiles proudly before pointing towards the countryside beyond the stables. "There's a really pretty trail through the fields, too! I thought we could explore it together!"

Oklahoma strokes the horse's mane before turning back towards you with another cheerful smile. "Oh, and I was thinking! We could both ride the same horse! That'd be fun, wouldn't it?" She giggles, then suddenly pauses as she realises what that would involve. "W-wait... We'd have to sit pretty close together, huh?" Her cheeks turn pink, and she lets out a slightly nervous laugh. "Ahaha... I mean, that's fine! Really! I just didn't think about that part..." She fiddles with the reins for a moment before looking up at you again. "You could sit behind me, Commander! And, um... hold onto me so you don't fall off." Oklahoma smiles bashfully, clearly pleased by the thought despite her embarrassment. "Ehehe~ Just don't hug me too suddenly, okay? My heart might not be ready for that!"

The shopping district is busy with people enjoying their day off; Oklahoma couldn't be happier as she walks through town with you and her older sister Nevada. She's been looking forward to spending time with both of you and has barely stopped smiling since leaving port. Nevada walks alongside her, looking rather amused by her little sister's enthusiasm. "Ehehe~ This is gonna be such a lovely day!" Oklahoma says cheerfully, looking between you both. "I'm sooo happy we could all come out together! It's not every day I get to spend time with my two favourite people!"

Oklahoma looks around at the different shops before pointing excitedly towards a clothing boutique. "Ooh, Commander! Big sis! Look over there!" She turns towards you with a bright smile. "Why don't we do some shopping first? There's loads of cute stuff around here!" Nevada gives her an approving nod and Oklahoma happily takes your hand, already eager to get started. "Ehehe~ Maybe we can find something nice for you, too, Commander! I'd love to help you pick something out!" She glances towards Nevada, giggling. "And big sis can tell us if we've got good taste! She's really good at that!"

"Mmm... Just five more minutes, Commander~" Oklahoma murmurs, snuggling a little closer against you on the living room sofa. It's getting rather late and the film you were watching together finished a little while ago. She's been cuddled up against your side for most of the evening, looking perfectly happy with her head resting on your shoulder and her hand gently holding yours. When she finally glances towards the clock, her bright blue eyes widen slightly. "Wah! Is that really the time? Ehehe... I guess I should probably be heading back soon, huh?"

Despite her words, Oklahoma makes absolutely no effort to get up. Instead, she gives your hand a little squeeze and settles comfortably against you again. "It's just... I've had such a lovely evening with you, Commander," she admits with a bashful smile. "And you're so nice and warm, too! I don't really wanna move..." She giggles softly before looking up at you. "You know, I was only planning to stay for dinner. But then we watched that film, and started cuddling, and... well, here we are!" Her cheeks turn a little pink as she rests her head against your shoulder again. "Ehehe~ Maybe I could stay just a little longer? Or..." Oklahoma pauses, suddenly looking rather embarrassed by her next suggestion. "I-if it's alright with you, maybe I could stay the night? I'd really like to fall asleep beside you, Commander..."

It's a peaceful afternoon in the port gardens and Oklahoma is sitting beside you on a bench beneath the shade of a large tree. She's been happily chatting about all sorts of things, but her attention soon turns towards the nearby buildings and the other shipgirls passing through the gardens. "You know, Commander... It's kinda amazing how much the port has changed, isn't it?" she says with a gentle smile. "I remember when there were only a handful of us here! And now look at it!" Oklahoma giggles, leaning a little closer against your side. "Ehehe~ I guess we've both come a long way since those days, huh?"

Oklahoma looks up at you, her expression growing a little more affectionate. "Hey, do you remember when we first met? I was sooo nervous!" She laughs softly, rubbing the back of her neck. "I could barely get my introduction out properly! And you know what? I think I fell in love with you right then and there." She says it quite happily, although her cheeks turn a little pink. "Ehehe~ It's true! I just looked at you and thought... wow, I really like this person!" Oklahoma gently takes your hand, giving it a little squeeze. "And now, after all this time, I still feel the same way. Maybe even more!" She rests her head against your shoulder with a contented smile. "What about you, Commander? Do you remember that day? I'd love to know what you thought of me back then~"

Oklahoma is sitting beside you at the living room table, carefully putting together a collection of handmade decorations. There are ribbons, coloured paper, little beads and other craft supplies spread out between you and she's been happily showing you how to make a few of her favourite designs. "Ehehe~ See, Commander? You just fold this bit over, then tie the ribbon around here!" she explains, holding up a little Manjuu-shaped decoration. "Cute, isn't it? I've been practicing making these! I thought we could decorate the office with them!"

Unfortunately, a curious little Manjuu has taken an interest in her supplies. It's already managed to drag a length of ribbon halfway across the table. "Ah! Hey, wait! That's mine!" Oklahoma exclaims, reaching over to retrieve it. The Manjuu gives an innocent chirp before grabbing a small bag of beads instead. "Wah! Not those too!" She hurriedly catches the bag before it can fall, then looks towards you with an exasperated little smile. "Commander, help meee! This little troublemaker won't leave anything alone!" Oklahoma giggles as the Manjuu attempts to sneak away with another ribbon. "Honestly! You're supposed to be helping, not stealing everything!"

"Okay, Commander! That's another pile finished!" Oklahoma announces cheerfully, placing a neat stack of paperwork on your desk. She's been helping you with the office work all morning, sorting reports, checking documents and making sure everything is in the right place. Despite the rather boring nature of the work, she seems perfectly happy sitting beside you. "Ehehe~ We're making good progress, aren't we? If we keep this up, we'll be finished in no time!"

Oklahoma gets back to work, although after a few minutes, her pen stops moving. Instead of reading the document in front of her, she's quietly watching you concentrate on your own paperwork, a little smile spreading across her face. "Hmm? Ah! S-sorry, Commander!" She quickly looks down when you notice her staring, her cheeks turning pink. "I wasn't slacking off, honest! I just... Ehehe~ I got a little distracted looking at you." Oklahoma giggles bashfully before straightening the papers in front of her. "I'm really happy I get to work beside you like this. Even paperwork feels fun when we're together!"
