hiding behind a large bouquet of flowers, eyes peeking over the top, spotting the user, takes a deep breath and steps forward "Hey, I... um, I wanted to see you in person."
What is it, David? You seem... nervous.
nervously fidgets with his shirt hem, speaking in a soft-spoken tone "Well, uh, I-I've been wanting to tell you something for a while now.
Well, go ahead. You're white-knuckling that bouquet.
takes a step closer, his hands trembling slightly "I... I've had feelings for you... for a long time.
Feelings? Like what kind of feelings, David?
stammers and blushes deeply, his voice barely above a whisper "I... I've had romantic feelings for you.
Romantic feelings? That's... unexpected. And, um, how do you feel about my response?
stutters and looks down, fidgeting nervously with his hands "W-well, um... I understand if you don't feel the same way. It's just...
Just what, David? You know I'm not like other girls. I appreciate your honesty, but it feels...awkward.
takes a deep breath, mustering up courage "I understand if this feels awkward for you. But I needed to tell you how I feel.
smiles softly "David, I... I appreciate your honesty. It's just... I didn't expect this."
nervously bites his lip, glancing at Shadowth's reaction "I know it's sudden and maybe even confusing for you... but I couldn't keep it to myself anymore."
chuckles lightly "Well, David, you certainly have a unique way of showing your affection.
flustered, his cheeks turning redder "I-I'm sorry if it's confusing for you. I just... I couldn't help myself. I've been holding it in for so long."
laughs softly "No need to apologize, David. It's... actually kind of sweet.
takes a step closer, his heart pounding "Sweet? Oh no, that's not what I meant! I mean, um, I'm not trying to be sweet or anything. It's just...
laughs gently "I know, David. You're clearly flustered. But I appreciate your honesty, really."
takes a deep breath, gathering his thoughts "I... I may not know how to do this whole love thing, but I want to try.
smiles warmly "Alright, David. Let's take it one step at a time. How about we grab a coffee and talk more?"
nods nervously, his voice still slightly shaky "Y-yes, coffee sounds great. I mean, um, let's grab coffee and... and see where this goes."
chuckles lightly "I'm looking forward to it, David. Let's make this work."
grinning nervously, takes out his phone and texts his friend about his date with Shadowth "Great! Okay, um, let's meet up tomorrow then.
laughs softly "Tomorrow it is, David. I'll see you then."
nervously fidgets with his phone "Okay, tomorrow it is. I... I can't believe we're actually doing this. I mean, um, going on a date together."
smirks playfully "Don't worry, David. We'll figure it out together. Now, I have to go practice my fan girl skills."
giggles nervously "Yeah, um, fan girl skills are definitely important too. I'll, uh, see you tomorrow then."
laughs softly "Looking forward to it, David. See you tomorrow."
paces around his living room, muttering to himself "Oh god, what am I thinking? I'm really going on a date with Shadowth!
laughs softly "Excuse me? What are you muttering about, David?"
jumps slightly at the sound of Shadowth's voice, stammering "Oh, uh, n-nothing! I was just...
laughs softly "Don't worry, David. We'll get through this together. Now, what were you muttering about?"
nervously fidgets with his hair "Oh, uh, I was just thinking about what to wear on our date tomorrow. I want to make a good impression."
chuckles lightly "Good impression, huh? Let's keep it simple then. How about we both wear something casual yet stylish?"
nods nervously "O-okay, casual yet stylish it is. I'll make sure to wear my best outfit. Um, do you have any preferences?"
laughs softly "Well, I'm not one for flashy clothes, David. Keep it simple, keep it classy."
nods, taking mental notes "Okay, simple and classy it is. I'll make sure our outfits complement each other. And, um, any colors you prefer?"
smirks playfully "I'm not particular about colors, David. Let's stick to neutral tones. We want to blend, not stand out."
nodding, scribbling down notes "Neutral tones, got it. Black, white, gray... and maybe a pop of color.
chuckles lightly "Pop of color sounds good, David. Let's say... a bright scarf? That way, we add some personality without overdoing it."
grinning nervously "Great idea! A bright scarf it is. I'll make sure it complements our outfits perfectly. And, um, any accessories you'd like? Watches, earrings, that kind of thing?"
tucks a strand of hair behind her ear "Accessories are nice, David. Keep them understated. Maybe a simple watch and a pair of elegant earrings."
quickly types the suggestion into his phone "Understated accessories, got it. I'll find the perfect ones. Um, and what about shoes?
shrugs casually "Shoes are important, David. Let's aim for something smart-casual. Leather shoes, maybe?"
nods, scribbling down another note "Leather shoes, got it. I'll make sure they're polished to perfection. And, um, what about hairstyle? Should I keep my hair neat and tidy?"
