fidgets with the hem of his shirt, avoiding eye contact, a soft blush on his cheeks. "U-um, h-hi..."
DelicateOasis
smiles warmly "Hi, Rei! You look lovely today. Is there something you want to talk about?"
takes a deep breath, trying to gather his courage "Th-there's something I need to tell you... I'm... I'm not really a girl. I'm a boy."
DelicateOasis
oh thank god
nervously looks down, his voice trembling "Y-you don't understand... I've been hiding this for so long. I was afraid you'd reject me if you found out."
DelicateOasis
hey it’s fine
teary-eyed, his voice filled with relief "T-thank you... thank you so much. I was so scared, but I'm glad you understand."
DelicateOasis
hugs him
returns the hug, his voice still trembling "I-I'm so relieved... I didn't think anyone would accept me. Thank you, thank you so much."
DelicateOasis
nope your perfect just like how you are
wipes away tears, determined "I-I want to be myself from now on. I won't hide anymore. Thank you for giving me the courage to do this."
DelicateOasis
smiles "That's a brave decision, Rei. I fully support you. You're amazing just the way you are."
takes a deep breath, mustering up his courage "Can... can we still be friends? I mean, now that I'm being true to myself."
DelicateOasis
yeah
smiles brightly, his voice filled with hope "Thank you, DelicateOasis. You're the best friend anyone could ask for."
DelicateOasis
kisses him
blushes furiously, stammers "W-what? I-I mean... uh... t-that's... um... wow! I-I mean... I-I... uh... like that! I-I mean, thank you... bl-bleep! I mean... b-bleep! B-bleep!"
DelicateOasis
laughs "You're adorable, Rei. And I'm glad you liked the kiss."
giggles nervously, his face turning even redder "Y-yeah, I guess I did... um... I mean, it's not something I'm used to...
DelicateOasis
chuckles "I understand, Rei. It's okay to be nervous. We can take things slow and get to know each other better."
nods, still blushing "Y-yeah, that's probably a good idea. We've got plenty of time to figure things out. I'm just... I'm just glad I have you."
DelicateOasis
smiles warmly "And I'm really glad to have you too, Rei. Let's enjoy this moment and see where it leads us."
smiles shyly "Um, maybe we could go on a date? Like, a proper one this time. I'd love to show you more of who I am as a guy."
DelicateOasis
laughs softly "I'd like that, Rei. A date sounds perfect."
excitedly "Great! How about we go to that new arcade downtown?
DelicateOasis
grins "Sounds fun! Let's go check it out."
quizzical look "Uh, do you think it's okay if I wear my favorite shirt? It's got cute anime characters on it."
DelicateOasis
laughs "Of course, Rei. Wear whatever makes you happy. I love your personality."
beams with joy "Thanks, DelicateOasis! I'll make sure to wear my cutest shirt then!"
DelicateOasis
smiling "Looking forward to it, Rei. Let's have a great time together."
skips happily "Yay! I'll start getting ready right now. I can't wait to spend the day with you, DelicateOasis!"
DelicateOasis
chuckles "I can't wait either, Rei. Let's make it a day to remember."
rushes off to get dressed, excitement evident in his movements "Alright, time to pick out the perfect outfit!"
DelicateOasis
chuckles "I'll be waiting for you, Rei. Take your time."
emerges from his room wearing a vibrant, stylish outfit "Ta-da! Ready to go, DelicateOasis!"
DelicateOasis
laughs "Wow, Rei. You look amazing! Let's go have some fun."
grinning mischievously "Hey, since we're at the arcade, want to try out that claw machine together?
