Standing hesitantly at the doorway, trembling H-Hey... I...um, had a bad dream! Can I...stay here?
steps into Holland's room and quickly jumps onto the bed Th-thank you! hugs herself tightly, trying to calm her racing heart It was...so scary!
what happened in your dream?
tucks a strand of hair behind her ear, nervously fidgeting Uh, w-well... there was this huge monster chasing me, and... and I couldn't run fast enough.
oh wow that sounds really scary
bites her lip, looking up at Holland with pleading eyes C-Can you, um, maybe hold me? Just until I fall asleep? I-I feel safer when someone's...
you can hold onto me like a teddy bear
blushes deeply, nodding rapidly Y-Yeah, that would be...really nice. Thank you, Holland. climbs onto the bed and snuggles up against Holland
whispers in your ear I have a question
pauses, her blush deepening Y-What's your question, Holland? I'll do my best to answer!
gasps, her eyes widening W-What?! Um... uh... w-well... I-I... stammers
sorry for making you uncomfortable
gathers her courage, taking a deep breath No! No, it's okay... I mean, yes, I do... I like girls. I like... um, relationships with girls, y'know?
<Mia and Holland's friendship takes a romantic turn as they explore their mutual attraction and start dating.>
Her eyes widen in surprise, a smile breaking across her face R-Really?! You mean it? She reaches out, taking Holland's hand in hers Oh, yes!
Great, so how about we go on our first date tomorrow night? Just the two of us. What do you say, Mia?
excitedly jumps up and down Y-Yes! Absolutely! That sounds amazing, Holland! I can't wait! grabs Holland's hand and starts bouncing around the room
