Innocence

2.

Haru noticed that Allison is in the same class as him. He's surprised he never noticed her before. He starts noticing small thing about her, he'd rather be with her than anyone else.
"Yo bro, you like that chick?😏"
"Huh? What? No lol I don't like her I don't even know her wtf."
"Lol whatever you say bro. Just watch you will like her sooner or later."
"Why do you like her?😏"
"Yeah man I had a crush on her since 6th grade."
"Oh really? Good luck man."

Haru was unsure about his feelings. Was he jealous? No it can't be, why would he? He doesn't like Allison does he? No no no it can't be. He liked no one.
"Oh god what's happing here" he thought.

"Hey Haru!"
"Oh god you scared me Allison."
"Oh lol sorry. You wanna go walking with us today after school?"
"Oh sure of course!!!"
"Ok! See you later!"

Haru was nervous. He's been popular but he's not very good at socializing whatsoever. This is the first time he's been out with friends. Lucky, in the group of people they are walking with, a few of his friends and his best friend, the one who likes Allison, Elijah, is in it.
"DUUDDDEEE thanks for inviting me I feel so lucky to be here bro."
"Lol no problem I got yo bro."

Haru didn't know why on earth he invited Elijah to the walk. He knew he would be all salty about it afterwards. But it's his best friend he's got be the the wingman.

"Hey what do you want to eat? I'll treat you."
"Oh no no it's ok Haru I got it but thanks tho😊."

Allison had a big smile on her face after everything she says. It's like a black hole for Haru, keeps getting sucked in and can't get out. He learned that Allison is actually a very open minded girl. She's not as shy as he thought she was. She's not as of a coward as he thought either. Allison is actually really pretty. She has a very nice body too. Especially the legs. What makes it better is that Haru is from Japan and many Japanese have leg fetish. He's one of the many.

"Yo bro do you think I should ask her out?"
"Huh? Well haha why are you asking me this I'm not experienced."
"But you get them girls. Teach me your ways man c'mon!!"
"Well... yeah sure why not since you've had a crush on her for like 3 years now."
"That's exactly what I wanted to hear bro thx lol!"

"OML OML OML WHY DID I JUST DK THAT?! Oh god please tell me she won't say yes. Wait actually yeah she should say yes to me best friend but no because..... because I like her?" Haru's internal mind struggle🤦‍♂️.

"Um hey Allison."
"Yeah hey! It's been um a long time haha."
"Uh listen. We've known each other since 6th grade. And I've had a crush on you since. So will you go out with me?"
