Suffice to say, several minutes after the "date" was done with, Constanze was quietly lying on her bed in the Green Team dormitory, sighing in exasperation as she stared up at the ceiling, only her own thoughts keeping her company for now. If anything, while Akko's interference didn't outright ruin any chances the navy-haired engineer might've had for a romantic relationship with Diana, it certainly made everything far more difficult than necessary.

As much as she wanted to confess her feelings to Diana eventually, she felt that doing so would have been much better at a later time, when Constanze felt she would be ready for a relationship. But of course, Akko had to go on and intervene, and make everything infinitely more awkward than needed!

A couple quiet knocks on the door snapped Constanze out of her thoughts, although since she didn't feel like talking to anyone at the moment, the most the German girl could manage was a quiet dejected "Go away." as she kept lying on her bed, staring off into space as she couldn't even bother to get up.

"Constanze? Are you here? We need to talk!" - The realization of whom the voice belonged to made the navy-haired girl let out a quiet gasp as she realized just who was knocking.

Did Diana really want to talk to her about the incident that just ensued?

That couldn't be right. The date was a complete disaster, and she probably wouldn't want to talk to her after everything Akko did, and-

Her suspicions, however, were confirmed yet further as Diana gently opened the door and peeked in. Constanze almost immediately blushed and looked off to the side, not even feeling like looking the British girl in the eyes at the moment.

"Constanze… We need to talk about what happened today." - The blonde said with clear concern in her voice as she approached the other girl, sitting down next to her on the bed.

"First of all, I want to apologize on Akko's behalf. She just wanted to help us out, but it seems that she inadvertently… Caused some unnecessary complications." - As Diana said that, Constanze's only reply was an angry "Hmph." as she continued looking away.

"Akko certainly meant well, even if the execution of her plan was less than stellar. So please, at least don't be mad at her." - Honestly, while hearing anyone else try to stand up for Akko after she royally screwed up would tire Constanze out to no end, somehow, Diana was an exception to that rule. It also helped that her voice was surprisingly pleasant to listen to, making Constanze feel…Safe, somehow.

Feeling that this conversation was getting too one-sided, Constanze sighed and remarked: "It's okay. The whole Academy's used to her antics by now."

After Constanze said that, an odd silence persisted within the room for several more seconds, although the German girl couldn't help but notice a slight blush on Diana's face. It seemed that apologizing to Constanze wasn't the only thing that Diana came for.

"By the way…What Akko said about your crush on me…Is it really true?" - That question made Constanze freeze on the spot, her face ending up practically beet-red. This was the moment that she was reduced back to her usual form of communication, uttering nothing but her usual grunting in an attempt to get some sort of response out. After a few moments, however, she breathed out and nodded in affirmative.

"To be honest, I don't really mind that. Because… You are actually quite cute yourself."

This was the moment that Constanze uttered nothing but a quiet, prolonged squeak. After taking some time to catch her breath and calm down, the navy-haired girl could only utter a single word's worth of a question: "Really?"

A laconic question was deserving of an equally laconic answer. In Diana's case, it was a quiet nod coupled with a kind smile.

"Of course, if you're not yet ready for a relationship, I understand completely. I myself had the same difficulties of mentally preparing for a romantic relationship, so I guess I'll be willing to wait for as long as you need to." - As Diana said that, however, Constanze immediately hugged and nudged her, shaking her head and grunting in disagreement.

"Oh… You mean you don't want me to wait? I honestly don't know how to react to this…" - Diana remarked, equal parts flustered and confused.

"I… I am ready if you are." - Constanze replied as she looked up to face Diana. Realizing how she worded that, she immediately stammered: "F-for a relationship, I mean! I mean, it's not that-"

She was almost immediately shut up by the feeling of Diana's lips on her own.

As Akko made her way back to the Academy, she almost immediately headed over to the Green Team dormitory room, as she felt that she had to apologize to Constanze for what happened. The Asian girl was technically at fault for the date going awry, and it was basically her main responsibility at the moment, so she certainly felt that she had to fix it. As for Sucy, she had to practically tail her girlfriend as to make sure she doesn't make anything even worse. After all, the earlier events just proved that even if Akko means well, she can screw things up too much for it to matter regardless, even if she didn't mean to.

As estimated, the duo ended up bumping into Amanda and Jasminka on the way through. That is, Akko literally bumped into Amanda, and Jasminka barely managed to catch the redhead at the right moment. Akko, in turn, had landed right in Sucy's arms.

"Oh, there you two are!" - Akko remarked as Sucy helped her up. – "Is Constanze still in the dormitory room? I need to talk something out with her."

"She is alright, but I would leave her alone for the time bein' if I were you. Trust me, Cons really needs some alone time for now." - Amanda replied, with Jasminka nodding in confirmation.

"Told you so." - Sucy quipped, but that didn't do much – if anything, Akko wriggled herself right out from the other girl's grasp and rushed right past Amanda and Jasminka, prompting a "Hey!" from the former.

"Of course she doesn't listen..." - Sucy groaned out as she followed her girlfriend.

As for Akko, she was quite quick to approach the Green Team dormitory room, and, once near the door, took some time to calm down. If she needed to make sure that Constanze hears her out, she first needed to not alienate her even further. As she took a few more deep breaths, she gently opened the door…

And what she saw was definitely not what she expected. Constanze was lying on her bed, with Diana just next to her, and they were full-on making out. It was just an innocent first-base makeout, sure, but it certainly left Akko a bit surprised, to say the least. Especially startling was seeing Constanze being the more assertive of the two, practically sitting on Diana's lap and having both her hands on the taller girl's face as she kissed her. Luckily for Akko, neither girl seemed to notice her, so she just slowly backed away and closed the door, uttering a quiet "Sorry" as she did so.

As the rest of the group caught up to her, they immediately noticed that typical "defensive smile" expression on Akko's face.

"I forgot to mention that Diana went over to talk it out with her as well." - Amanda remarked as soon as she saw the look on Akko's face.

"More like she ran off too quickly for you to explain anything to her." - Sucy snarked out. – "She tends to get impulsive like that."

While Akko's expression shifted to an annoyed pout, Jasminka decided to alleviate the tension a bit and changed the subject back: "So, how's Constanze feeling so far?"

"Let's just say Diana resolved everything on her own and leave it at that." - The brunette responded as she dragged Sucy back to the Red Team dormitory. Once the other girls were out of earshot, Sucy couldn't help but remark in a matter-of-fact tone: "Let me guess – they were making out."

Akko's only response was a nod, with Sucy quipping "Knew it." as they went back to their dormitory room.

At the very least, Akko was glad that everything resolved itself on it's own.
