Peter- "Y/n, can I ask you something?"

"Sure," you replied.

"If I asked you out what would you say?" He was trying to act casual but you could see the blush creeping onto his cheeks.

"Are you kidding me?" He looked crestfallen.

"Ok.. I'll just-"

"Of course!" You interrupted him. His eyes brighten.

"So I'm asking you out,"

You nod, grinning, as you join hands.

Eric- "Hey beautiful," You sighed. Eric again.

"I've told you before. My name's y/n. Use it," You replied, cooly.
Lyn rushed off, leaving you alone with Eric.

You faced him and he scratched the back of his neck.

"What are you thinking?" You asked.

"Umm," he looked awkward. "I'm not usually the guy to go for this mushy stuff.... But um. Would you go out with me?"

You raised an eyebrow.

"Only if you want to. I mean you don't have to if you don't but-" you cut off his words with your lips.

When you pulled away, you smiled.

"Wouldn't want it any other way,"

Uriah- You had just caught Uriah staring at you for the 20th time.

"What?"

"Nothing," he replied.

"Right. I'll see you later then," you started to get up.

"Wait,"

"What!?" You demanded. You had lost count of how many times you had said that this evening.

"Willyougooutwithme?" He gabbled.

You laughed. "What?"

"Will you go out with me?" He asked, slower.

"I'll think about it,"

"Oh," he replied, sadly. "For how long?"

"About five seconds," you grinned. "Of course I would!"

You engulfed him in a hug.

Caleb- "Hey, uh, y/n?" Caleb ran up behind you.

"Oh hey!" you replied. "What's up?" He looked troubled.

"Nothing," He looked down.

You stopped, forcing Caleb to stop too.

"I can tell when something is up. C'mon. Tell me," You encouraged.

"Well, I guess there is something. You," You looked confused. "You've been on my mind, lately. And I've realised how much I actually like you,"

He looked startled as if he realised what he was saying and widened his eyes. "Oh um as a uh friend. Yeah as a fri-" You pushed your lips onto his, stopping him mid sentence.

"What did you really want to say?" You pulled away, leaving him flustered.

"Will you, I mean, would you like to uh go on a date some time?"

You smiled. "Of course!"

Four- Neither of you really ask each other out, it just kind of happens.

"Wait wait wait. Are you two a couple?" Christina gestures at your joined hands.

"No,"

"Yes,"

You looked at each other.

"I mean, yes,"

"Wait, no,"

You're the first one to burst out laughing.

"He's never actually asked me,"

Christina raised her eyebrows. "What a gentleman, Four," She laughed.

A/n from the future: I'm cringing. Why'd they all start with "Hey y/n," and then the reader sort of not really rejecting them and then taking it back and saying something mushy? Huuudnxbwjxn
