Akko was running towards Diana after class.
"Diana!", Akko called out for her.
"Yes, Akko?", Diana replied. She was caught off guard, yet smiled in her presence.
"That night was totally awesome! You don't understand how much I've wanted that game for years! I've always wanted it, but my parents couldn't find a copy back in the day," Akko exclaimed.
"Oh...", Diana blushed from Akko's appreciation. "I'm glad you liked it. I played a little bit, but I think I might need some help." Diana's voice cracked from admitting that.
"Ugh, I can't believe to fight the... WAIT I WON'T SPOIL IT!", Akko cut herself off. Diana chuckled in response to Akko's shenanigans.
"I've bought a few more games since then, so would you mind...,"
"YES!", interjected Akko. Without a second thought, she would do anything that would let her spend time with Diana. "I'd really love to play together more, Diana! You're totally the best for doing that!".
"I'm going to do it. Right now. This is my opportunity!", Diana thought to herself. She didn't actually know if Akko meant it as a friend, but she was ready to risk everything right now. Her shoulders relaxed as her eyes fell on to Akko. Diana admired her bubbly smile that was noticeable from a mile away. It was like an aura of some sort. Akko's mere presence had Diana drawn to her- metaphorically and physically. This was a moment of vulnerability that she had never done before. Andrew was totally right about procrastinating. Diana had waited far too long.
"Akko, I really like you...", Diana stated.
"Oh, thanks! You're cool too!", Akko replied.
Diana stood there frozen in a mix of shock, confusion, heartbreak, and elation. "What does 'cool' even mean in this context?", Diana thought to herself. Was Andrew lying?
"I'll talk to you later. I gotta meet up with Constanze!", Akko waved goodbye.
Diana was still frozen. Hannah and Barbra bore witness to the whole ordeal.
"Did Diana just...", Hannah began to comment. Diana was still watching Akko run away.
"I think they're both oblivious. Diana just totally confessed right now and Akko totally did NOT get the hint", Barbra whispered to Hannah.
"I'll be in my studies", Diana sighed as she walked off to her dorm.
In Akko's head right now....
"Man, I really hope Diana likes me! I can't wait to show her the love tester!
