A/N: Let me clarify this part quickly: this chapter is from Kokomi and Sara's point of view, and it takes place before they arrive at Miko's house.

Kokomi's POV:

I'm nervous. Why did she insist on picking me up? Her presence is just... dominating. It's.... making me nervous and tingling on the inside. It's not that I don't want her around. I'm more worried because I don't know what to say to her if she comes here.

I can't even look at her eyes and speak... normally.

*

Why is she here already?! I'm not ready. 

Calm down, girl. You can do this, just... relax. Breathe in, breathe out.

*

I CAN'T CALM DOWN

Do I look good? Is my make up okay? Is it not too much? 

I heard her car honk. I quickly texted her that I was on my way downstairs.

This is your chance, Kokomi. Maintain a calm and courteous demeanor. Show your elegance to her.

*

I am now outside and she's leaning on her car. Bloody jellyfish, she looks so... hot. Gosh stop about these thoughts. She might think you're weird.

How can I stop thinking about these things? She's smoking hot. Those....abs. I want to touch them.

WAIT WHAT?!

Are you out of your mind!

"Are you alright, Kokomi?" she asked. Archons, you must think I'm a moron right now.

"Y-yes," I said as I approach her. "Alright, come in, let's go," she said as she opened the door for me and I went in.

*

I had no idea she was capable of driving. It makes her more attractive. "Are you sure you're okay? You keep staring at me," she asked. Why are you such a moron, Kokomi? "I-uh, nothing. It's just..."

"What is it?" she inquired. "You l-look amazing!" I said, closing my eyes in embarrassment. Why would I say that? She's probably thinking I'm strange.

"Is that so? Thank you for the compliment, although you look lovely today, Kokomi. Are you trying to impress someone?" she chuckled as she peeked at me.

It's you, idiot.

"N-no one. My sister merely insisted on my wearing t-this," I said. Of course, I wouldn't tell her I was dressing up for her. "I see, but are you interested in someone?" she asked. The heat rose to my cheeks. "U-um. N-no one at the m-moment," I responded. Oh my, I'm still stuttering.

"I guess the person you will be interested in will be lucky," she said. Oh for the love of archons. It's you, who I'm interested in.

"W-why?" I asked.

"I wonder why. Well, first of all, you're beautiful, I admit that. Second, you're smart, respectful individual. When you act shy, you're cute," she said.

H-how do you say it with a straight face? I'm blushing profusely right now! It's humiliating! "Hmm? Why are you so quiet?" she said as she peered at me, a smirk on her lips. "Perhaps you're blushing right now, Ms. Kokomi," she chuckled.

"N-no, I'm not!" I protested. "Whatever you say, beautiful," she laughed as she noticed my cheeks become redder.

T-this woman!

*

The drive took longer than I expected due to traffic, and this woman here is constantly teasing and flirting with me! She now constantly refers to me as "beautiful, cutie." It irritates me! But I like it! But it's still bothersome!

"Stop glaring at me," she chuckled. Yes, I'm glaring at her. She should stop or I might just confess!

Yes! I like her. I'm not sure why I'm attracted to her. At first, I was confused. I was certain I liked guys, but the day I saw her... I was really charmed by her. I thought I was simply admiring her, but I actually like her. I realized I like her because of Ayaka. 

I noticed every single detail about her. Her eyes shine a pristine golden yellow. They shine brightly when the sunlight hits them. Her raven colored hair suits her very well. Her eyes scream... dominance. The way she looks so serious when reading a book in the library. The way she becomes frustrated when she is unable to solve the math problem, and how she is hesitant to seek my assistance. It's all so adorable. And... her smile. Seeing her smile makes my heart race. She just looks so beautiful, so beautiful that I have fallen in love with her. Whenever she looks at me with those eyes, it just makes my heart race and my cheeks red. Just her looking at me... I can't take it.

However, I can't let her know this. I have impossible feelings. No one should know about it, except for Ayaka, of course. She knows everything about me. I am not even sure if Sara also likes women. It would only break my heart if she rejected me. I would rather not tell her and just be by her side. Just being by her side, that's all that I need.

How I wish you would look at me that way, Sara.


A/N: 

First of all, I'm struggling with how to write when someone is complimenting another! But I will do my best to write it perfectly. If you have any suggestions, please do comment down below! 

However.... I might just add some angst here. Welp, wish me luck in writing!
