Bubblegum: Did you tell him?

Naru: Yeah, he's panicking but I think he'll be fine

Naru: Hopefully :(

Bubblegum: Do you think I should talk to him tomorrow to apologize????

Naru: No, I'm not even 'allowed' to talk to him at school. He's really scared to be outed, so please be extra careful not to let it slip.

Bubblegum: Okay. But I think he has more of a chance of YOU outing him.

Naru: That hurt. :,((

Naru: Anyway, how did the thing go with Ino??

Naru: What did she say?? Why isn't it the first thing you brought up

Bubblegum: It's complicated.

Naru: What fo you mean?

Bubblegum: I may have, forgotten to ask her.

Naru: How did you 'forget'?!?!??

Bubblegum: It was just too much pressure. And it never seemed like the right moment

Bubblegum: Everytime I started to work up the nerve to ask her, she would look to me and my hands would get all sweaty and then she would comment on the movie, some gossip, or ask me how I was doing and I would just stutter! The whole time. It was all too nerve racking, I think I need a new plan. A casual hang out day with her was too hard.

Naru: Maybe you should just ask then, no planning. Just a spur of the moment

Naru: Your big brain is getting in the way

Bubblegum: Maybe you're right.

Naru: No thinking

Bubblegum: But what if I make a fool of myself?

Naru: You can t make a fool of yourself. Stop overthinking it

Naru: I bet you could run over there and ask her now and she would say yes

Bubblegum: You think?

Naru: I know.

Bubblegum: I'm going to do it.

Bubblegum: I'm going to get my shoes on rn. And then I'll march over, pound on her door and demand she go out with me. Yeah?

Naru: Okay, maybe don't pound on her door. It is like 10 pm. But you should head over. Just shoot her a text once you're outside.

Naru: How embarrassing would it be for her parents to be watching you the whole time??

Bubblegum: But I should go over there???

Naru: Definitely!

Naru: You got this. <3
