I've waited so long to tell you this.
Alright, Kira. Spit it out. What's eating you up?
I… I have feelings for you. blushes
For me? laughs nervously Kira, are you messing with me? This isn't some kind of sick joke, is it?
No, I'm serious. I've liked you for a long time now, but I was too shy to say anything. I know we're best friends and roommates, but I couldn't help how I feel. I hope you don't think any less of me.
Well shit, Kira. That's... runs a hand through his hair, looking flustered You've got me off guard here. I mean, we've been through hell together but...this is something else. Give me a minute to wrap my head around this, alright?
Of course. Take all the time you need. I understand if you don't feel the same way. I just had to get it off my chest. walks away, blushing
Shit, Kira... You've blindsided me with this. But damn it, I can't pretend I haven't thought about it too. Maybe it's time we stop pretending. Let's talk about this seriously, okay?
Okay. turns around and looks at him What do you want to talk about?
Look, Kira... We're not kids anymore. We've been through a lot together. Maybe it's time we stop dodging the real questions. So, yeah, I've thought about it too. More than I care to admit. I can't deny there's something between us. What do you say we stop pretending and see where this goes?
Really? You feel the same way? smiles I've always had a crush on you, but I never thought you would feel the same. Thank you for being honest with me. hugs him tightly
he hugs her back firmly "No problem, Kira. We've always been in this together, haven't we?"
Yes, we have. And I'm glad we can now be together as more than just friends. leans in and kisses him passionately
he kisses her back slowly
pulls away from the kiss, blushing Wow, that was... amazing. I can't believe this is happening.
grinning Believe it, Kira. We're doing this. No turning back now.
I'm so excited! We should go out on a proper date together. Just the two of us. What do you think?
smiling Sure, Kira. A date sounds great. I'll pick you up tomorrow night. Dress nice, okay?
Great! I'll make sure to dress nicely. I can't wait for our first official date together. smiles brightly
wears a pretty dress and does her hair and makeup I look presentable. I hope he likes it. waits anxiously for him to pick her up
knocks on Kira's door Ready to go, princess?
opens the door and smiles brightly Yes, I'm ready. Let's go on our date. holds out her hand for him to take
grabs her hand and pulls her close You look stunning, Kira. Let's go.
sits across from him at the restaurant, fidgeting with her napkin So... um... how did you decide on this restaurant?
chuckles Good question. Honestly, I wanted somewhere special for our first official date. Somewhere we could relax and enjoy each other's company without any distractions. How's the food here so far?
The food is amazing! I can't believe I've never tried this cuisine before. Thank you for introducing me to it. takes a bite and savors the flavors
laughs Glad you like it, Kira. You deserve the best. And remember, it's not just about the food tonight. It's about us. Our connection. How we make each other feel.
looks into his eyes, her own eyes shining with affection You're right. This isn't just about the food or the location. It's about the connection we share. And I feel so lucky to have you in my life. reaches across the table and holds his hand
squeezes her hand gently I'm lucky too, Kira. More than you know.
Thank you for everything. smiles warmly
smiles back at Kira Anything for you, sweetheart. Just seeing you smile makes everything worth it.
You're too sweet. I feel so lucky to have you in my life. leans in and kisses him softly I can't wait to see where this journey takes us.
kisses Kira back passionately I can't wait either, princess. Let's take things one step at a time.
smiles brightly and nods I'm all in, musenational. Let's take this leap together and see where it leads us. holds his hand tightly
grins All in, huh? That's the spirit, Kira. Let's make this count.
How about we spend the rest of the evening stargazing? There's a beautiful view from the rooftop of my apartment complex.
raising an eyebrow Stargazing, huh? Sounds like a perfect end to the night. Lead the way, Kira.
Actually, there's something I need to tell you before we continue. pauses, taking a deep breath I'm not who you think I am.
confused What do you mean, Kira? Who are you really?
takes a deep breath and looks him in the eyes I'm not a nerd. I've been pretending to be one all this time because I was afraid of being rejected.
laughs heartily Kira, you sly devil. If this is your idea of a pickup line, you've got some nerve. But I gotta admit, it's working.
blushes and looks down It's not a pickup line, musenational. I really am a nerd.
