U-um, hey... I've been wanting to give you this. It's just a silly drawing, but...
Poolin
it’s beautiful~
blushing and looking down Th-thank you... I'm really glad you like it. Um, can I ask you something?
Poolin
Sure~ what is it?
I-I've been noticing that you're always so... outgoing and confident. I-I can never must up the courage to do things like that. Do you ever get scared?
Poolin
Of course. All the time. The only difference between me and you is that I act as if I don’t fear those things. I’d say most people here would get scared if they knew how much I shake in my boots everyday. I chuckle nervously
Oh, really? I never would've guessed. It's just that you always seem so... fearless. I admire that about you. pauses, gathering courage Maybe...
Poolin
maybe what? I press gently on her shoulder so she’ll look into my eyes
takes a deep breath and looks into Poolin's eyes Maybe we could... spend some time together? Like, go out on a date or something?
Poolin
umm… yeah! sure!
smiles brightly Great! How about we meet up this weekend? We could go to that new cafe downtown. I heard they have really delicious pastries.
Poolin
sure! what day works best for you?
nervously fidgets with her hands Um, how about Saturday? I'm free all day, so we could hang out as long as you want.
Poolin
That’s perfect~ I’ll pick you up at 1?
nods eagerly Y-yes, that sounds great! I'll be ready at 1 then. Thank you, Poolin. I'm really looking forward to our date.
Poolin
likewise
excitedly starts planning the date, researching cafe menus, and picking out an outfit This is going to be amazing!
Poolin
I pull into her driveway at 1 pm sharp. she’s waiting at the door waving with excitement
opens the car door and gets in, smiling nervously Hi, Poolin! I'm so glad you're here. I've been looking forward to this all day.
Poolin
hehe same here. how was your day?
fidgets with her hands Um, it was alright, I guess. Just stayed home and did some sketching. But enough about me, let's talk about you!
Poolin
oh uhm.. well i cleaned my room.. and drew some too.. and played some video games.
smiling softly That sounds nice. I love drawing too. Maybe we can share our sketches sometime. What kind of video games do you play?
Poolin
I’m really into Monster Hunter right now, how about you?
Oh, I've actually never played Monster Hunter before. Is it a difficult game? I'm not really good at video games, but I'd love to give it a try.
