A Change for the Better

Krillin moaned, he'd been sitting outside the dressing room of a mall store for over three hours. ~I guess this is what 17 meant. Sigh, I suppose it could be worse, at least I'm with 18.~ 18 walked out in a tight red dress and turned around in front of the mirror. Krillin glanced up for a moment then looked back down. Then when he realized what she was wearing he shot his head up and looked at her. 18 glanced at him, "Are you well?"
"Of course, I'm fine." Krillin replied, a bit confused.
"Your blushing, I think you have a fever."
Krillin's eyes widened and he stared back down at the ground as he felt his face getting hot.
"Uh well, people don't just blush when they're feverish."
"Oh?" 18 walked closer to him looking interested.
"Yeah well, sometimes people blush when they are embarrassed or,..well.when they are attracted to someone and they see them um.well it's weird I don't know, people blush for all sorts of reasons."
18 looked confused "So why were you?"
"Oh it's nothing don't worry about it."
"Tell me, NOW!" Her eyes narrow and a couple of people stare at her. Krillin shifted in his seat and looked back up at her, "It's just well I think you look.really beautiful in that dress." Her expression softened. "Really?"
"Uh yeah well sure you're a beautiful girl and look good in anyth." he stopped himself before he could finish, ~o hell I can't believe I just said that, she's going to think you're an idiot.~
18 just stood there for a moment, ~He thinks I'm beautiful?... Why does he make me feel so unusual, so, different, it's like he sees another side to me that no one else does. Why is this happening, I know I started out human, but am I capable of these kind of feelings. I think I care for this man. But I care for 17 as well, and never has being around him make me feel so strangely. Oh wake up 18, you can't get soft for these humans, stop being weak.~
"Yeah ok, whatever." 18 turned and walked back into the dressing room. Krillin sighed ~Great, you're such a loser Krillin.~ A couple minutes later she walked back out with a pile of clothes. "Ready to check out?" Krillin asked as he stood up and cracked his back.
"Yeah" The two of them walked up to the check out counter and Krillin paid for her clothes and helped carry a couple of her bags (she refused to let him carry them all). They walked into the food court "Hey do you want to get something to eat?" Krillin asked taking out his wallet. "I don't care." 18 sat at a table and set her bags down next to her. Krillin looked at her oddly ~ok.I guess that's a yes.~ So Krillin walked away and returned ten minutes later with a pizza. He set it down and sat opposite of 18. They both began eating and were silent for a couple minutes. 18 stopped and looked at Krillin for a long while before he even realized it. He looked back at her, "Is something wrong 18?"
"Well yes, no not really.I don't know."
~Huh? I've never heard 18 talk so strangely, is she nervous about something?!~ "What is it? You can tell me."
18 responded in a much softer voice, "No Krillin, you're the one person I can't talk to about this." Krillin's eyes widened a little, ~what is she talking about? Certainly not what I'm thinking, is it?~ 18 sighed, "Lets just go back, I'm not feeling well."
"Ok. Are you going to be alright."
"I'll be fine just don't talk to me." And with that she picked up her bags and walked out of the mall, followed by a confused Krillin.
