You know, if you have a crush and say it out loud, they wanna know. Got it memorized?

Enjoy.

Tor ended up being stupid and walking out of class with Lilith. Apparantly so damn privileged and knows it that it rubs off as personality. He ended up being put though extreme training by Professor Bunbun for it. But as soon as it hit dinner time in the dining hall sitting with Tomoe, Miyabi, Julie, and your partner it got interesting.

"So what was that thing about with you and Lilith?" Asked Tomoe.

"I hate her type. Daddy give it to me before I throw a tantrum. Honestly grow up."

"I get she was past rude but was it necessary?" Asked Amber.

"Probably not. Thought it couldn't hurt at the time. Well more then now. Still sore."

"Well at least you're okay." Miyabi smiled.

"Jah." Chimed Julie.

"Least is coming soon. Anyone got anything special?" Amber looked around the table.

"Tor and I are going shopping. I haven't been to a mall before." Aw Julie. So precious.

"Sounds nice. No idea what else is going on. Though I have no idea what I'll end up doing. See how I feel before everything else."

"Well you're welcome to come along. Me and Tor would love company." Sweet offer there too.

"Uhh, maybe." Miyabi squeaked.

Poor thing. Thought Amber. "Say (FN) what would you do if you're in bed resting while I shop?" She teased.

"Sulking? I don't know. Trick question."

"Well don't worry. Maybe that 'crush' of yours that you bragged about during class will cater to you." Said Amber just putting that out in plan sight.

"Eh?" Gasped the girls.

"Well Roomie that probably isn't happening. You know that. Either way just haven't had the guts. Find it funny?"

"Funny?" Pondered Tomoe. "I don't get it."

"I live with a girl. She's pretty. Yet I'm afraid to say to my crush that I like her. And, well," No hints. "Not sure if she would be interested in dating. Let alone dating me. But oh well."

"Wait. So you're not even going to try?" Tomoe shook her head.

"I haven't thought about it too much. But now that I'm thinking about it maybe just build confidence sometime from now and ask. Hope it doesn't hurt."

"Hurt?" Asked Miyabi.

"Well Miyabi you never had a boy ask you out in school. Has anyone ever asked you to be their girlfriend? Or go on a date?" Tomoe was just confirming what she knew was a firm no.

"I'm not ready." She blushed.

"Don't worry. You have me and Tomoe. Even Julie if she gets what we mean." Amber just wanted to set the pace. "Though I know who I have my eyes on. I realized it recently too."

"Not your roommate right..." Tomoe just wanted to confirm the obvious question to cleanse the air.

"No. Me and him like different people and we make good work related duo partners. I would think girlfriends, boyfriends, lovers, and whatnot are much different. Emotionally more involved. That's all. We have never been to that step and have no plans too. Though I think we have a deal on whoever asks first means the other one is forced into asking the crush within 24 hours. Just seems fair."

The next break came quick. With proper rest and eating well thanks from tips from Tomoe you were ready to hop on the train and head to the mall with Tor and Julie. She was so excited and Amber had some retail needs as well. Julie was so happy seeing the seagulls and open water on the way to the mall. In awe the entire time. It made everyone smile watching her shine.

When getting there Julie wanted to hold hands with Tor since a group of school kids almost dragged her away. When Tor grabbed a hold of her things got rather cute. "So we don't get lost. 'Kay?"

"Aww don't you two look cute." Giggled Amber. "Easy Julie. You'll make him sweat."

Little did you know that two girls were tailing the four of you expressing concerns for the girls. This seemed to be their adventure for the day. Maybe that's why they declined? Wanting to shop later on too? Maybe plans cancelled? Something wasn't right. Why take time out of your break to spy on your friends?

"They're, holding hands." Said Tomoe observing behind a pillar.

"Uhhh, well Amber and (FN) aren't. That a sign?" Asked Miyabi.

"Good question. Though they shouldn't lie like that. We should keep an eye about indeed."

Thinking that the day was good it was you smiled as you followed the other duo. It's a good day. Good weather so the mall was shining brightly from the glass overhead, have downtime, and might as well go shopping for a bit too. Why not? Though it seemed that Julie easily turned heads. Her adorable figure, skintone, and hair made most girls swing back around. Then Tor holding hands with her was going to be another awkward moment for him. Whether he liked her or not it sure looked like those two were hitting it off. Which of course lead to you and Amber to believe you were on a double date.

"You know I would hope next time we come it's a double date but we have our crushes next to us. What do you think?" Asked Amber.

"I'm guessing holding hands is out?" You chuckle.

"Well if you misbehave I'll grant you your new sleeping quarters. The couch. Hehe. I guess that power is good after all."

"Keep laughing Amber. Let's enjoy the day."

You were off. Julie just wanted to to explore. Finding herself at a store and why not use your credit from school? Amber thought a few dresses. Maybe one for that need crush of hers. "Hey (FN) can you help me pick put a dress for him?"

"Sure? Just compare it to you right? And no bra shopping right..."

"Maybe."

"Oh come on!"
