Doki Doki: Bliss!

Ohayou, Sayori!

☀️: Hey, wait upppp!!!
"Sayori. Chasing me again. Just like the first day she asked me to join her club."
☀️: MC!
I stop for about five seconds, waiting for her to catch up. She's about halfway there, so I begin walking again.
☀️: MC, hey!
She finally catches up and latches onto my arm, breathing heavily.
☀️: Hey, you waited this.. *pant* time!!
🎮: Yeah, for a second. But you seem to catch up just fine, so what's the point?
☀️: Ehh..? But you could've waited.. *pant* Five more seconds!
🎮: Everyone needs a workout every now and then.
Sayori pouts jokingly.
☀️: Today is your first real day of being a literature club member, y'know!
Last year, I got introduced to the members and we did a little activity, but that was only three days. I didn't get particularly close with any of them, but I do remember them fairly well.
There was Natsuki, Yuri, Monika, Chieko, Daiana, and of course, Sayori.
☀️: This is a big dealll, I told Natsuki to bake cupcakes again, too!!
🎮: Cupcakes?
I do remember those cupcakes. Sweet, pink frosting, Kitty cupcakes.
☀️: Mhm!!
🎮: Did you just do that because you thought it would entice me to go back to the club?
☀️: Ehhh.. That's not the only reason!! I also wanted to eat her cupcakes, silly!
🎮: Of course you did..
☀️: It's an honor to be the 7th member, y'know! Your birthday is the 7th of September, too, so it works out perfectly~
🎮: I guess so. Seven is a lucky number, after all.
☀️: Exactly!! You're gonna have SOO much fun! You already know Monika and everything.
🎮: Natsuki seems to be difficult to approach, though.
☀️: She's a little grumpy on the outside, but she's actually just as sweet as her cupcakes, trust me!
🎮: Like a tsundere?
I sound like a weeb now, don't I? Ew.
☀️: What's that??
Why do I always embarrass myself like this.
🎮: Nevermind that. We're gonna be late, let's get moving.
☀️: Okay~!!

I can't stop thinking about Kotonoha. I mean, she could be at my school TODAY!! I'm trying not to get my hopes up, but just thinking about it makes me insane.
I know the chances are very slim, but they're always there.
I texted her last night asking how the move went, to no reply. Ouch. She was the one who asked me for my number, so I try not to overthink it. But man, is it hard.

I space out thinking about her, in the middle of class, before I practically get jump scared by a Sayori.
☀️: Heyyy, MC! Ready to go?
🎮: Huh? Was I spacing out again?
☀️: Yeah, honestly, you're even worse than me sometimes! Class's already over, everyone's already left the classroom.
🎮: My bad. I just can't stop thinking about.. her..
I know my voice trails off, but I'm glad it does. What would Sayori think about all of this?
I never told her about Kotonoha. Not like she'd get jealous or anything, she's not like that.
It's just it seemed weird to tell her about her like that. It makes it seem like a little playmate I have during the summer is important to me. When it shouldn't be.
☀️: Thinking about what??
🎮: Nothing. You'll see, if it comes true.
☀️: Did you get any sleep last night??
🎮: What do you mean, of course I did!
☀️: Whatever you sayyy.. Let's go, the literature club is waiting for us!
She grabs my arm and leads me to the upstairs, a section of the school I've only visited the few times I came up here last year.
And thus, today marks the day I sold my soul for a cupcake.
