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.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaI7w0HoDmp
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3O5bYK7hdS
"Jun," Yuki said, her voice surprisingly gentle. "Can I talk to you for a second?"214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjlcoKaQdg
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55Pi7Qpy9c
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.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHAGEuo2aKa
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroWTtHt6DU
"Uh, yeah, sure," he stammered, trying to hide his nervousness.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXlY2Mz8eU0
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wyJrVh4u7
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?"214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5WpSZdRLt
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5WhuBk6ZPx
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.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFuk3E1i5nu
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZC1hBo6BX
"I... I don't know," he mumbled, his voice barely a whisper. "I mean, I..."214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvcf6bw5ICo
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyUgl7KtnK
"It's okay if you don't want to," Yuki said, her smile fading. "I just... I thought maybe we could..."214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjXmRxP0gI
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8C1PQBhHt
"No, no, it's not that," Jun interrupted, his voice rising in panic. "It's just... I..."214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU6oh9tOwNb
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFYwYhkwNG
He couldn't finish his sentence.  He was too overwhelmed, too afraid to say the wrong thing.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1rjiEgAqZ
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxg7htUMvnS
Yuki's eyes widened in surprise. "Jun, are you... are you okay?" she asked, her voice laced with concern.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvqETbRyHW
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0eH46CCxxL
Jun shook his head, unable to speak. He just wanted to disappear, to melt into the floor and escape the awkwardness of the moment.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiiEyfsSW9l
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzCxMTTtYg
"Look, I'm sorry," Yuki said, her voice softening. "I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable.  I just... I thought maybe..."214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9J5xgJom1
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6M0OUKs6Vq
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.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSC50SgHr9
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvCP5XLoYz1
"I'll see you around," Yuki said, turning to leave.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrk1eqo35l
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrD4WN7Umz0
Jun watched her go, his heart sinking.  He had blown his chance. He had let his fear and insecurities get the better of him.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5E5WnzW6q
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmO8OYdFr51
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.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdI8MgsHStk
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBN9VgU2lE
"What was that all about?" a voice said from behind her.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFF8TBSGKqH
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrywRDQCtzi
Yuki turned to see Hana, her best friend, standing there with a curious expression on her face.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIMMqM7zo2y
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZoMupDDgbD
"Oh, it's nothing," Yuki said, forcing a smile.  "Just a little... misunderstanding."214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXsorWEPZr
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCp2oHSZsk
Hana raised an eyebrow. "Misunderstanding?  You were practically blushing when you asked him out."214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8fOlnDdcT
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mNGBdAjqY
Yuki sighed.  "I know, I know.  He just... he's a little shy.  But I'm not giving up on him."214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxgs54fFsIh
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5WhQQleeQU
Hana grinned. "I knew you had a thing for him."214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsexDiHNJY1
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8dEJ5duklH
Yuki rolled her eyes. "Don't be ridiculous."214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Ey7hTLJOK
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfKhxRst50
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.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5j0nDB1V1N
