It's a certain moment almost three cycles ago, isn't that wild?

So -

If I wanted to ask if you wanted to be more than friends, is there a particular set of shoes that denotes romantic partner but not marriage or -


can I just kiss you?


The memory is a feeling of embarrassment and nerves and an earnest belief of if I fuck this up I may lose a best friend, but there's no lack of earnest and adoration.

Then relief as Gingham reciprocates and there is a burst of affection and tenderness into the kiss, but most importantly -

You think you told a small lie. You don't just love him as a person - you love him and boy are you finally glad you said something? And you really, really like kissing him actually.
