Hey, Rakka. It's me Jasmine.

I wanted to ask you something

[charcoalfeather]

[Hmm? Oh! She wasn't expecting this.]

Jasmine! Is everything okay?

[jasminebloominginshadow]

Sure, everything's fine. I was just wondering how things went with Raye.

[charcoalfeather]

O-oh! Right.

[She was smiling so much]

It... went well. Really well.

[jasminebloominginshadow]

[Jasmine lets out the kind of squeal that only dogs can hear]

Eee! Yell me everything!

[charcoalfeather]

[And.... Rakka had nearly thrown her phone across the room. And her ear was possibly bleeding, she wasn't sure. Thanks, Jasmine.]

U-uh, well, I found her and she was wearing this awesome Halloween costume. I think it was Jason or something...

[She shook her head. Not important.]

A-anyway! She really liked my costume, and when I asked her to dance she didn't say no! But, I had to talk her into it a little. She was worried about stepping on my feet, you see! But, I got her to dance!

It was really fun, and she even got into it too, and it was sort of during a slow dance that I... told her.

[Rakka drew in a breath. she could almost hear the smile on her voice.] She... didn't know what to say, b-but not in the bad way! She was holding my hand, and she was even blushing a little. We didn't say much, and kept dancing, but... I know that she liked me. I can tell.

[jasminebloominginshadow]

Ah yeah, I... I saw her in costume...

[best not to comment on that]

... and aw, that's great! I was... I was really rooting for you! And besides, Raye could really use someone like you right now...

...

So uh... did you two kiss, or what?

[charcoalfeather]

Yeah. It was... nice.

[She didn't expect anything less from a person like Raye. She was just happy that she actually came.]

Ehehe thanks! I was thinking the same thing... She's just been through so much recently, we all have.

[...Ahem. Moving on.]

K-kiss? No, not yet. We mostly just... danced, and cuddled.

[jasminebloominginshadow]

... aww... well, darn. But good things come to those who wait, I guess.

[charcoalfeather]

I've kind of been waiting for a few months already...

[Bluh.]

At least it's going better then I thought it would.

[jasminebloominginshadow]

Listen, one thing you need to realize is that Raye is a bit thickheaded.

I love her, but it's true.

You need to metaphorically bludgeon her over the head sometimes.

[charcoalfeather]

I know. She's pretty... [She laughs a little.] Thickheaded, like you said.

I wonder if she would have known if I didn't straight up tell her I liked her. Maybe, I don't know.

[jasminebloominginshadow]

She woulda known, but she wouldn't have known known.

Girls are complicated.

[charcoalfeather]

I know what you mean. [Rakka is, in fact, a girl, Jasmine.]

I'm just really happy that it went like that. It would have been terrible if she didn't like me, I could have made everything worse for her.

[jasminebloominginshadow]

[unpossible]

Well, she does like you, and you didn't. I'd call that a win-win.

[charcoalfeather]

Yeah, me too.

[It worked out for the best, really.

Nothing was likely to ruin it!]
