I ask MC a question...

Sayori POV

Despite Monika remaining hopeless, I was hopeful. I just new the girl would come, it was a gut feeling. Because Monika didn't want to talk about it, I decided to call MC and thankfully he picked up.

"Hey MC!" I cried as soon as he picked up.

"Hey Sayori..." He mumbled.

"Y'know that club I'm in, we might get a new member!"

"I told you Sayori I'm not-"

"Not you silly!" I giggled, "Although..."

"No!" He growled, but jokingly. I had almost given up finding a club for him to join - he seemed to have no hobbies apart from reading manga.

"Well... hopefully we're getting a new member tomorrow!" I cried excitedly, trying not to sound disappointed.

"That's great Sayo..." He said, but he sounded distracted.

"Uh... so how're things with you?" I asked hurriedly, the conversation was about as dead as a carcass.

"Eh... it's not bad..." But I could tell he was lying. Even though he doens't like to admit it, I'm the only true friend he has. He hangs out with some loners at lunch but I can tell he doesn't like them. It made my heart ache for him.

"Hey... I'm always here for you y'know..." My tone changed to a comforting one. MC clearly wasn't happy which was the total opposite to what I wanted. Everyone deserves to be happy right? "Want me to go round to your house...? Or you can come over to mine!" I was hopeful.

"Er... alright, I have nothing better to do."

"Yay!" I squealed, "I'm nearly home, like one street away. So I'll see you in a bit!" I smiled, but then it faded as I ended the call. He probably didn't want to come over, it was just because there was nothing better to do... Maybe I should cancel.

But I selfishly decided not to. If I did, I would be alone, which I hated. It was wrong of me to force MC to hang out with me, but I just liked him so much. Butterflies filled my stomach, but they weren't as strong as the ones I felt with Monika.

Stop thinking of Monika! Like you have a chance with her! 

I twisted my hands together. The little voices were right, she was still popular despite leaving the Debate Club. She deserved someone who would treat her right and good enough for such an amazing person. Although... MC was an amazing person too. Maybe I didn't deserve anyone...

My thoughts were driven from my head when I saw MC standing outside my house. He was dressed in a plain shirt and jeans. I ran up and hugged him.

"Sayo-!" He grunted. MC isn't really a hugger, but hugs make everything better right? I don't understand people who don't like hugs.

"MC!" I unlocked the door and ran upstairs while he trailed behind me, "Stay there, I'm going to get changed and don't you dare come in until I say so-!"

"Got it..." He muttered. I slammed the door and hastily changed into a pink shirt and blue shorts and white socks with little cats. I used to give the cats names and personalities, but that was pretty stupid. I only remembered one cat because he was my favourite. His name was Pepperpot becuase he was the only white cat with black spots and those are my favourite cats! He was super happy all the time and cheered everyone up. I sighed, I wish I was a cat, especially Pepperpot. Everyone loves cats, right?

"Come iiiin~!" I squealed. I blushed slightly as MC entered, but the butterflies weren't there. 

"Jeez... you should really tidy this up..." He grumbled.

"Ehehe~ I do tidy sometimes..." I giggled, feeling disappointed. I should've tidied up!

He rolled his eyes, "You're hopeles," But he smiled slightly, "C'mon, let's tidy up. I would be too distracted by the mess otherwise."

MC tidied away my clothes into my closet while I sorted out my desk and made my bed. I sat against the wall next to my giant cow plushie and MC sat next to me, squashing me slightly but it was nice. Now that we had tidied up we had nothing really to do. His hand was resting slightly on mine.

Ask him the question... I told myself. I wanted to tell MC about my feelings, because then he would (hopefully) be my boyfriend, and in all the book I read that was the best thing that could happen to you. Having a girlfriend would be nicer I supposed, especially if it was Monika, we were both girls and I wasn't sure Monika dated girls. Besides, girls didn't have girlfriends in all the books I had read.

"MC... I-I need to tell you something..." I said. I blushed slightly.

"Sure, what's up?" He replied casually.

"I-" I couldn't believe I was saying this. You want a boyfriend don't you? The voices complained, C'mon, this is you're big chance don't mess it up like you always do. I swallowed,

"I really like you MC, I've liked you for a long time." My voice trembled slightly. MC had gone quite still, "I... What I'm asking is... do you want to be my boyfriend?" 

"Sayori..." He muttered after a pause. The little voices screamed, I had gotten it wrong. I should've confessed somewhere nicer other than my bedroom next to my cow plushie. "I... I've been thinking about this sort of thing... about you." He swallowed, "How about we take it a little steady, yeah?"

"So... you'll be my boyfriend?" I squeaked. I felt a swell of happiness, but only for a moment. The sun disappeared behind the clouds and it began to rain again... why? Had I done it wrong?

"Yeah." He said shortly, "We'll date for a little bit and if... it goes well then we'll become official? Does that sound good?"

His voice sounded strange, as though he was talking underwater. Why were the rainclouds still here? This was supposed to be a good thing. This was supposed to be the best. But I forced a smile and nodded.

"Yay!" I squeaked, then threw my arms around him. He made a sound of surprise, but hugged me back awkwardly.

"Can I tell Monika? She's my best friend and wont tell anyone if you want-" I asked.

"Ok, as long as it is just Monika." He smiled. For a moment I wanted to kiss him, but I decided not to. It would be weird.

We talked for a while, and it was all pretty platonic, but then he had to go.

"I'll see you tomorrow I guess." He said, then kissed me lightly on the cheek. It seemed pretty friendly, but it made me blush.

"Ok! See you!" I smiled. I smiled as he left the room, then the smile slipped off. I was alone again.
