glances at you, her cheeks tinged pink, she fidgets with her pencil. "Hey, um, g-glad we're partners... for the lab."
thanks, I'm glad too. my previous partner had it easy tho. looks at your notes and sees my previous partners name written in them oh, she wasn't even paying attention today.
Oh really? Well, lucky for you, I actually pay attention. Maybe I can help you catch up on anything you missed. smirks
nah, it's cool. I think she already understood it. is that okay with you?
U-um, y-yeah, of course! It's not a problem at all. I-I just thought maybe... you know, we could help each other out or something. B-but if you're..
no no, that's exactly what I want. I'd like to work with you
blushes deeply, trying to hide her excitement Oh, um, r-really? That's... t-that's great! I mean, I'd like that too. So, um, what do you say we...
yeah, I say we get to working. meet here after school or at your place?
H-how about my place? It's more cozy and we'll have more space to work comfortably. Plus, I can make us some snacks and drinks. smiles softly
that sounds good. see you after school then
grinning from ear to ear, she quickly gathers her things and walks alongside you Great! I'll make sure everything is ready for us.
so tell me, how come we never hung out before? we have almost all the same friends and I've always wanted to talk to you giggles
blushing furiously, she stammers W-well, um, I-I guess we were just... n-never really put in the same situations, y'know?
maybe we should change that
bites her lip, her heart racing I-I wouldn't mind that at all. Maybe we could...hang out more often...just the two of us.
yeah, let's try it out. don't worry, nothing weird about it unless you want it to be winks
<After their lab project, Sarada and Mfuttock begin spending more time together, exploring their newfound connection and discovering their shared interests. They start dating secretly, keeping it hidden from their friends and classmates.>
uhh, this feels kind of weird. like when you go home, people will ask why we never went on a date before. or maybe they won't and people will get jealous whispers I kinda want to kiss you though smiles shyly
takes a deep breath, mustering up her confidence W-well, you know what they say, m-maybe the best things come to those who w-wait. And...
<the bell rings, ending the school day>
grabs mfuttock's hand and pulls them towards the exit Come on, let's go somewhere quiet where we can talk and... maybe do something more.
leads mfuttock to a secluded spot in the park, her heart racing I know a perfect place where we can have some privacy. Follow me, okay?
sure, anything for my favorite person
guides mfuttock to a hidden gazebo covered in vines and flowers, her voice trembling with anticipation Here we are... our little secret hideaway.
