The school bell rang, signaling the end of another grueling day. Jun, as usual, was the last one to leave the classroom, his nose buried in a book. He was so engrossed in his reading that he didn't notice Yuki standing in the doorway, watching him with a soft smile.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbdDWzmnujX

"Jun," Yuki said, her voice surprisingly gentle. "Can I talk to you for a second?"210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtTnRZoJROY
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlMEELrrCMC
Jun's heart skipped a beat. Yuki, the school's most popular girl, was talking to him?  He quickly closed his book, his cheeks flushing red.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4vnYMnm33
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjK7wMgflMg
"Uh, yeah, sure," he stammered, trying to hide his nervousness.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0iCEHod0S
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUySejDa7i
Yuki took a deep breath. "I... I wanted to ask you something," she said, her eyes meeting his. "Would you... would you like to go out sometime?"210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32P1CFOHjL
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWUobArqBg
Jun's brain went blank.  He couldn't believe what he was hearing. Yuki, the girl of his dreams, had just asked him out on a date.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVc94KY1347
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfIArQOmO3
"I... I don't know," he mumbled, his voice barely a whisper. "I mean, I..."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlcKqbOISd
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWvr6xYAtR
"It's okay if you don't want to," Yuki said, her smile fading. "I just... I thought maybe we could..."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVfrO9VYim
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0LMBjw9np
"No, no, it's not that," Jun interrupted, his voice rising in panic. "It's just... I..."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfdAp1vKdE
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbnUVxODWH
He couldn't finish his sentence.  He was too overwhelmed, too afraid to say the wrong thing.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnnDGclUNH
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANuaOolWwv
Yuki's eyes widened in surprise. "Jun, are you... are you okay?" she asked, her voice laced with concern.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVdqXtvzs4
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtT9idGkw8L
Jun shook his head, unable to speak. He just wanted to disappear, to melt into the floor and escape the awkwardness of the moment.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4fmCO0ZYqx
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv2dA8Jf939
"Look, I'm sorry," Yuki said, her voice softening. "I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable.  I just... I thought maybe..."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkfLRzdvpj
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ82BgdPsEi9
She trailed off, her eyes filled with disappointment. Jun felt a pang of guilt. He wanted to say something, anything, but the words wouldn't come.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUVMM1Kszw
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr2wq4AQqY7
"I'll see you around," Yuki said, turning to leave.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6CoGNAQ0I
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKH1cpgZKbs
Jun watched her go, his heart sinking.  He had blown his chance. He had let his fear and insecurities get the better of him.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD3YFEqr6gh
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDicxO1TvwH
As Yuki walked away, she couldn't help but feel a twinge of sadness.  She had been so nervous to ask him out, but she had finally worked up the courage.  And now, it seemed like it was all for nothing.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQf2dFbPoG
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡURHBOKEa9t
"What was that all about?" a voice said from behind her.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZeAlzozbA
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2SDC3R5saP
Yuki turned to see Hana, her best friend, standing there with a curious expression on her face.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr8J2H0xioq
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3orFMf96y
"Oh, it's nothing," Yuki said, forcing a smile.  "Just a little... misunderstanding."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgPAGPRI00r
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuiL7hFNaDz
Hana raised an eyebrow. "Misunderstanding?  You were practically blushing when you asked him out."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItgjHJjRPt
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3njPdnv3AF
Yuki sighed.  "I know, I know.  He just... he's a little shy.  But I'm not giving up on him."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLjmm4lGZ3
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡajnIMRIOo2
Hana grinned. "I knew you had a thing for him."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6zq2vxe4R
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOu6qwe0MF
Yuki rolled her eyes. "Don't be ridiculous."210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4EYkBANNp
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQeXo5nQvU
But deep down, she knew Hana was right.  She had a crush on Jun, and she wasn't going to let this one little misunderstanding stop her.  She was determined to win his heart, even if it meant facing her own fears and insecurities.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡED4rmnpdGR
