KO was super nervous around Y/n now. Even though she didn't seem affected by the events that occurred the day before, it did cloud her mind. And KO was the same.

The stunt that Tko pulled off, kissing Y/n, made KO wonder: Did Y/n like him? Did Y/n like KO? Or both?

"KO?" Someone called him. He gasped, startled and looked up to see Enid and Rad. "You okay, little dude?" Rad asked.

"Yeah, you've been really quiet." Enid said.

"Oh. I-I'm fine." KO stuttered. Enid and Rad looked at each other.

"No, you're not, KO. We can tell you're upset over something. What is it?" Enid asked as she sat down next to KO, Rad on the other side. KO looked over at Y/n, who was sweeping the floor. She turned and saw KO looking at her. She smiled and waved. KO blushed and looked away.

"Oh, I see what it is..." Rad chuckled. KO looked up at him. "You've got a crush on Y/n!"

"Ssh!" KO blushed even more, his face becoming red. He covered Rad's mouth. Y/n looked over at them, confused. She shrugged and went back to sweeping, putting her headphones on to listen to music. "Rad, be careful! She could've heard you!"

"So I'm right?" Rad smirked. KO sighed.

"Yes... I do like her..." He mumbled.

"Aw, KO, it's nothing to be ashamed of. Just tell her." Enid said.

"It's not that easy. We've told everyone we're just friends. Maybe that's really how Y/n feels. Maybe she doesn't like me back." KO said.

"You won't know until you ask her..." Enid said. He sighed and hid his face in his hands.

"We'll help you, KO! We'll tell you what to say, what to do, and you'll definitely win her." Rad said.

"I'm not sure that's the best idea." Enid said as she frowned.

"Oh, come on. Don't you wanna help KO?" Rad asked. KO gave her puppy eyes. Enid sighed.

"Okay, fine. But if this goes wrong, it's your fault, Rad." Enid said. KO smiled.

"Okay. What do we do first?" He asked.

~~~

"Are you sure this will work?" KO asked.

"It played out right in my mind, so it should work in real life. Now go!" Rad said. KO sighed and turned to Y/n, who was sorting things on shelves. He approached her. She looked at him and smiled.

"Hey, KO." She said.

"H-Hey..." KO looked back to Rad, who gave a thumbs up. He looked back at Y/n. "C-Cutie..."

Y/n raised an eyebrow and chuckled. "What's with you?"

"N-Nothing... I just wanted to come... Admire your work..." KO said.

"Say it!" Rad whisper-yelled from the end of the isle. KO sighed. This was the stupidest thing Rad could ever make him say.

"Have you been to the doctor lately, because I think you're lacking vitamin me." KO said nervously as he finger gunned. Y/n was silent for a moment before bursting out laughing. KO was confused. She wasn't supposed to laugh.

"KO," She laughed, wiping a tear away. "Who put you up to this?"

"W-What? Nobody! I-I just wanted to... Uh..." He trailed off.

"Did Rad make you do this? This seems like something Rad would do." Y/n said.

"No! I did it myself." KO said.

"Well then why?" Y/n asked. KO started stuttering, not knowing what to say. She laughed some more. "KO, you're so silly. You don't have to say those kinds of things to me. Don't listen to Rad." She said as she wrapped an arm around KO's shoulders. "I've gotta go do some more organizing. Bye, KO." She waved goodbye before leaving to do work. KO sighed and turned to Enid and Rad.

"Well that didn't go as planned." KO said.

"No, it didn't. I imagined her falling head over heels for you. Guess we'll have to try something else." Rad said. Enid covered his mouth with her hand.

"No." She said. She turned to KO. "Just tell her how you feel. You two are super close. She'll understand."

"But how? How do I explain it to her?" KO asked.

"Tell her all the things you like about her, or try telling her about your favorite memories you share. You'll know how to when you do it. But maybe you should hurry." Enid said as she leaned close and whispered, "I think Tko is already winning her."

KO gasped and rushed off, to find Y/n. Rad looked at Enid.

"Oh, so you get to tell him stuff that we probably shouldn't, but I don't?" He said.

"What? Tko is winning her over!" Enid shrugged.

"Does it matter? KO and Tko are kind of the same person." Rad asked.

"Guess not. But it's too late. I've already said it." Enid said.

KO rushed towards Y/n, who was stacking cans of food.

"Y/n!" He called, startling her. She dropped the van she was holding, and it caused all the others to fall. She sighed and turned to KO.

"What is it now?" She asked.

"I-I need to tell you something!" He said.

Rad and Enid grabbed a phone, recording from the next isle. They were both smiling widely.

"Well what is it?" Y/n raised an eyebrow. KO began stuttering again, blushing madly. Y/n furrowed her eyebrows, confused. "Well?"

"I-I don't want to be friends anymore!" He blurted. Y/n's eyes widened. Enid and Rad gasped and dropped the phone. KO realized what he had said. "W-Wait, that's not what I meant."

"No, I get it. You don't want to be friends anymore. It's fine. I was scared this day would come, but I saw it coming. It's fine. I'm just gonna..." She trailed off. She walked past KO. "I'm just gonna leave. I'll see you later, KO..." She walked outside, leaving KO.

Rad and Enid walked up behind KO, who looked like he was about to cry.

"Dang, man. You blew it." Rad said.

HAH I BET YOU THOUGHT KO WAS GONNA CONFESS BUT NOOOOOOOO! HAH!
