"Special?" Terezi repeated. "You think I'm special." She never thought special would be something used to describe her.

"....yeah. Why wouldn't you be?" It looked like the conversation was taking a turn for the self-deprecating again, so he changed the subject. Not like this one was much better. "When I went to see you, before you dropped off that dress, I wanted to talk to you about something. Cale came to see me, well, threaten me more like, and he seems to think we're dating...?"

●

Terezi paused. Oh, that was why he went to see her. Made sense. Guess Zane let the cat out of the bag. "I guess that's why he hates you so much, I assume now." Terezi pointed out. "Then again, I could see why he would assume that."

2015-04-23 04:42:33

🌀

He turned red. "W-what, why, I mean, we're not, are we, nevermind, that's silly......" Quit while you're ahead, darling.

●

She gave out a chuckle before looking away. "Is it?" She asked.

2015-04-23 04:45:36

🌀

".....uh......" Was there a right answer here? "....s-sure?" Perfect. Nice and neutral.

Oh my God I can't watch this anymore.

2015-04-23 04:47:43

●

She exhaled slowly. Yeah, even herself found this embarrassing. If her heart could beat, it'd be racing right now. "I mean, I think everyone assumes it. It's the way we act around each other, I guess.."

2015-04-23 04:51:52

🌀

"The way we act? But, what, I just treat you like I would any other friend..." If he had any. So who knew?

2015-04-23 04:53:11

●

"They seem to think otherwise." She paused. "Him and Zane, I mean."

2015-04-23 04:54:33

🌀

"What? Zane too? Why would he..." This was weird. "I-it's probably just a big misunderstanding."

2015-04-23 04:57:03

●

"Honestly, I don't think so." She exhaled again. It's now or never, Terezi. "Before Cale confronted you, I went to Zane I guess the day before, and asked him for some advice."

2015-04-23 04:59:04

🌀

"Yeah? About what? Spyders?" He wouldn't be surprised. The tall man had seemingly been the best at defending himself against the vampire, even among the rest of them.

2015-04-23 05:02:18

●

She shook her head. "About us." She answered. God, this was completely and utterly nerve wracking. Maybe being asleep would be great for her right now.

2015-04-23 05:03:57

🌀

Come on, dear, you're doing fine. I gave her a thumbs-up and smile from his pocket. "...uh...w-what specifically?" As if he wasn't just as nervous as she was. "Like as a....a thing?"

2015-04-23 16:16:16

●

"Mhmm." She nodded slowly. "As a thing." She repeated it back to him exactly how he said it.

2015-04-23 16:18:29

🌀

He was now a stuttering mess. How had this happened twice in, what was it, as many weeks? "A-are you sure, I mean, I, you, what?" Perhaps you should Russian instead.

2015-04-23 16:43:05

●

"Honestly, I'm not sure. I'm not sure if the idea of us is really a good thing at all." She paused before looking him in the eyes. "But something tells me that I should do it, and at the same time...I just want you happy."

2015-04-23 16:45:40

🌀

Oh, how sweet. Add 'something' to my list of odd nicknames. His face was flaming red and we were almost to the edge of town. "....I want you to be happy too..and if it would make you happy if...I mean, it would make me happy too, but....you really want to?" What was that thing ghost girl mentioned? Oh yes. The 'gif'. JUST KISS!

2015-04-23 16:51:37

●

She nodded. "Yes, I do." Wait? Did he just say he liked her too? He did. Holy shit. /Holy shit./ Okay Terezi, breathe. Breathe.

2015-04-23 16:56:41

🌀

EVERYONE JUST CALM DOWN. We arrived at a street and began earning odd glances from passerby. "So do we just.....what do we do now?" Did that make them a couple? How did this even work? Neither of them had any idea what they were doing, and it was adorable.

2015-04-23 17:03:07

●

"Honestly, I have no idea." Terezi admitted. "I guess we just...take it slow? I think. " That was how things worked, right? You just follow your gut? She assumed so. Hell, she didn't even think she'd get this far.

2015-04-23 17:06:25

🌀

"I-I guess." He stopped in front of her apartment. "Is it...still safe for you to stay here?"

2015-04-23 17:09:17

●

Would it be the best idea to stay there? Probably not. Either way, she didn't really have much of a choice. Though without Lizzy, Spyders couldn't do much alone. "Yeah, I think so."

2015-04-23 17:12:25

🌀

"....okay, but if they try to pull anything again, call me. O-or Zane. He'd probably be more help." He carried her through the lobby and up to her apartment, earning a smile from the landlady. Upon arrival, he laid her on the couch, pulled me out of his pocket, and handed me to her. "You probably want to keep this." ....right?

2015-04-23 17:16:48

●

"I will. I promise." She spoke as he carried her into her home. When he presented the doll, she cautiously took it as she got comfortable on the couch. "Yeah, I do."
