Relationship: friend to lover

~°💠°~

An especially gloomy day at Jae Won High School left the normally rowdy school feeling dull.  The only exception being those teens in the Architecture Department. The lone wolf Leonn Lee wasn't distant from everyone as she normally would be.  Her abnormal behavior was keeping everyone talking as lively as ever. 

After a while a few of the others settled on what the problem was.  They were sure of it when identifying the problem as a love issue. They wouldn't leave her alone after that.  They all urged her to share her feelings and to let them help.  It was a surprisingly effective strategy and she eventually cracked.  She spilled her guts and told them what she was dealing with. 

After seven years of friendship and one year of who-knows-what-this-is Leonn wanted to confess to her crush.  She had tried to go the indirect route first.  Flowers and a note in (Name)'s locker.  Her long time friend only gushed over them saying how great they were, and completely missing the note that went along with it.  (Name)'s eyes just skipped over it and so the flowers were then on from a secret admirer.  Leonn couldn't rain on her parade and tell her the truth so she decided to try another way.

The direct route is what she decided on this time.  Well, her brain decided that.  Her voice and legs however, they disagreed. 

Leonn approached (Name) ready to confess but her knees nearly gave out beneath her at the thought.  She wobbled and shook barely managing to stay standing.  (Name) asked what was wrong, but when Leonn went to confess her throat tightened beyond compare.  The pain was so horrible she almost cried from trying to force the words out.

Leonn was exhausted.  With (Name) being too oblivious to catch on and being to shy herself, Leonn was glad to have the Burn Knuckles.  The boys were basically planning the wedding as she spoke.  A twenty-two step process was being made on how to get the two together and all the rules-of-love were being used.

Despite needing to calm them down as well as limit the steps of the plan Leonn was happy for the help.  The boys had managed to come up with several ideas.

Leonn couldn't believe she agreed to this plan.  It was after school.  The Burn Knuckles followed (Name) home to enact the plan.  As (Name) was about to walk past an alley, out popped Damon with his face covered by almost see through cloth. 

"You!"  He yelled

(Name) looked around herself slightly confused.  "Me?"

"I AM A BAD GUY!" Leonn was really regretting her decision. "You, are coming with us!"

"Us?  D-"  Twenty more poorly disguised BurnKnuckles jumped out from the alleyway.  Damon quickly grabbed (Name)'s wrist and tugged her towards the alley.

He almost made it in when another Burn Knuckle yelled. "OH NO!  BOSS, IT IS A HERO, LEONN LEE, WHO IS IN LOVE WITH OUR CAPTIVE!  SURELY SHE WILL TRY TO SAVE HER!"

(Name) stands there dumbfounded with Damon still lightly tugging on her.  She watches as Leonn comes running in and fights her attackers.  Quickly they're all down and pretending to be unconscious, some without even being touched, including Damon.

Leonn quickly takes Damon's place and wraps her hand in (Name) 's.  She's awkward about it "Uh-um (Name) are you, okay?"

"Yeah I'm fine.... thanks for saving me...I think."

"No problem,"  Leonn paused.  A faint kiss-the-hero can be heard from a faraway unconscious BurnKnuckle.  Leonn's face heated up. "(Name), I was thinking that I um... really like you, and we should go out sometime!"

(Name) jolted in surprise.  "I'd love to go on a date with you" she said shyly.

Leonn's face lit up even more.  She tries to block her face with both hands "N-N-no... it's uh not a date... I didn't say date" she tried to deny.

"Oh... I.... sorry...I thought you were asking me-"

"SHE IS!" all the Burn Knuckles jump up.  They wouldn't let Leonn ruin her chance.  (Name) looked over to Leonn to silently ask if what they said was true.  Leonn nodded that it was.

(Name) smiled.  Leonn returned it and intertwined their hands again.  "Let me walk you the rest of the way home?"  (Name) nodded and they begin on their way.

Extended Ending:

Half way to (Name)'s house she turned to look at Leonn.  "So... was I not supposed to know that was fake?"
