His spotted the target, pleased to see that it had yet to spot him. Stealthily, he edged around the corner.
"Today's the day," He murmured to himself.
"Stay calm. Remember how you practiced it," A voice instructed him through the earpiece he wore.
Mustering up all his courage, he advanced. Each step taking him closer, his heart racing faster by the second. Then the target looked up and they locked eyes.
He couldn't run now, it would be stupid to come all this way just to give up. But at the moment, not a single thought was processing in his head.
"The plan! Remember the plan!" The voice yelled, jarring him back to his senses.
The brown-haired boy nodded, finally making his move.
"M-Miriallia? Would…would you go out with me?"
The girl blushed, nervously glancing away then back.
"I-I'd love to be your girlfriend, Tolle," She said tentatively taking his hand.
His face broke into a wide grin as he gently squeezed her hand. Glancing over his shoulder, he flashed a victory sign behind his back.
At that, three boys peered out around the corner.
Miriallia sighed, "Kira, Kuzzey, Ssigh- were you all behind this too?"
Kuzzey pointed to the others, "It was their idea."
"Just helping out a couple of friends," Kira said smiling. Beside him, Ssigh took off the headset he was transmitting messages from.
"Well- mission accomplished. Go on, now," Miriallia ordered.
The three quickly retreated, leaving the two alone.
Shuffling his feet, Tolle nervously spoke, "So um…now that we're dating…I was wondering if…if…"
He'd forgotten the words he'd practiced, and he was certain he was going to do it all wrong. But when he gently pressed his lips against hers and she started to kiss back, only one word came to mind.
Victory!
