"here." i threw her the plastic bag. she sat up and examined the plastic. she took the plastic off and a box was revealed. "you wanted those sneakers, right?"

her eyes sparkled. "y-yeah. i mean how'd you get them? i thought you don't have the money."

"i asked my boss for a raise," i replied and watched as she put the sneakers on.

"awwe, thank you kookie!" she hugged me while tiptoeing. she broke the hug before talking. "but seriously, you shouldn't have bought me these."

"psh, i already gave it to you. i cant return them."

"thank you really!" she smiled brightly.

"you keep saying thank you," i chuckled.

"i should treat you though," she said with her finger on her chin. "we should go to this new crazy restaurant. they serve pancakes with chocolate chips in cute figures."

"i thought those are for couples only?"

"oh right, nevermind. i'll think of something else." she laughed awkwardly and walked away, but i managed to grab her hand.

"we can still go," i said and looked straight into her eyes, while she was avoiding it.

"w-what? we're not even a couple," she said and met my gaze. "how can we go?" 

there was an awkward silence. we were both lost in each others eyes. i couldn't look away, i wanted to remove my hand from her hand, but i did something more than that.. and it wasn't a mistake.
