"Where are you heading, Freminet?" Lyney asks as he notices Freminet, stuffing his bus pass into his bag. Freminet stiffens slightly before turning back to face Lyney.
"It's nothing important..." Freminet mumbles, gripping the strap of his bag. He's avoiding eye contact. It definitely was important.
"Mind if we come with then?" Lyney proposes to which he hears Lynette shift in her seat. She gives him a look as if to ask: 'When did I become part of this?'
"No! I mean, um... I wanna go by myself," Freminet quickly retorts. He shrinks back a bit, rubbing the back of his neck awkwardly. "I need to go... before I miss the bus. I'll call when I'm coming home," He says quickly, rushing out the door.
It's quiet for a bit after the door shuts.
"Lyney, stop."
"Stop what, dear sister? I'm not doing anything."
"We're not following Freminet. He said he wanted to go alone."
"Well, who's to say we didn't just happen to end up in the same place as him on complete accident?"
"You're buying me dessert after this."
Freminet fidgets with his plush as he waits by the aquarium's entrance. Despite only standing around for a few minutes, he already felt like an eternity passed. What if you changed your mind? No, he had to think positively, like Lyney tells him to. No jumping to conclusions.
"Freminet!" He jumps slightly as he hears his name. He looks up, spotting you rushing over. You looked pretty. Really pretty.
"Were you waiting long?" You ask as you stop in front of him. "Sorry... the bus got delayed. You know how traffic is on the weekend."
"It's okay," Freminet mumbles. "Wasn't waiting long..." How does he tell you he thinks you're pretty? Does he just say it? Does he have to lead up to it?
"Let's head in, yeah? I heard the displays are amazing here!"
"Yeah, let's go."
The displays were as beautiful as you said. The moon jellies, starfishes, clown fishes, rays. Freminet found himself being amazed by them. He had gone to multiple aquariums before, but he continued to be a star-struck child each time. His favorite part was, and always will be, the touch pool.
You're a bit scared when you two walk into the touch pool. He notices you being hesitant to dip your fingers in the water to touch the starfish.
"Is something the matter?" Freminet asks, taking his fingers out of the water.
"Ah, it's nothing," You mumble as you continue to hover your fingers over the water's surface.
"Lynette, do you wanna touch the starfish?"
"It's slimy..."
"We can do it together... don't be scared, okay? It's a friend, like Pers..."
Freminet reaches his hand over to yours. "It's okay. We can do it together, if that'll make you more comfortable..."
"... yeah, that would make me feel better."
Freminet nods, placing his hand on top of yours. He carefully guides your hand to the top of the starfish. You flinch a bit at the sensation at first, but you keep your fingers steady.
"Wow... it's a little weird but definitely cool!" You chuckle, running your fingers on the bumps of the starfish. "And really pretty..."
Pretty. The starfish is pretty. Freminet believes all sea creatures are pretty. However, he thinks you're prettier than any sea creature he's seen.
"Freminet's all grown up... going on dates, making moves. I'm so proud!" Lyney exclaims, practically crying into his sister's shoulder.
"You're too loud, Lyney. They're going to hear you," Lynette comments, poking at his head. She pushes him to hide into the gift shop as she notices Freminet turn his head slightly.
"Would you quit your fake sniffling?" Lynette mutters, pushing her brother's head off her shoulders.
"Just yesterday, he was asking me how to ask someone out! Look at him now!"
"Yeah, I got it. You're proud."
"Not just proud! Estatic!"
"Shush, they're coming over," Lynette whispers, ducking into a hoodie rack and pulling Lyney along with her.
"... you really do know a lot about the sea, Freminet!"
"Yeah... I do deep sea diving as a hobby, so..."
"Wow! Deep sea diving? That's amazing!"
"Really...? You think so?"
"For sure!"
As Lynette hears their voices become more distant, she carefully pokes her head out. She does a quick scan before stepping out of the rack.
"Let's head back. There's not much more for us to do," Lynette says.
"I can think of one more thing," Lyney interjects, holding up a small plush. He slips it on top of a shelf nearby.
"What's the point of doing that?"
"Oh, dear sister, you'll see!"
"Cute..." You mumble, looking up at the penguin plush perched on the shelf.
"Do you like it?" Freminet asks, looking up at the plush.
"It's pretty cute..." Your eyes leave the plush and land on the keychain hanging from Freminet's bag. "Oh, it looks just like the one on your bag!"
Freminet looks down at his bag, nodding to himself. "It does..."
You smile, reaching up to grab the plush. "We can match!" You chuckle to yourself, skipping over to the cashier.
"Match..." Freminet mumbles, staring at your retreating figure. "Matching..."
Like partners? Romantic partners? Freminet stands still, his face blooming red. Matching with you?
"Something the matter?" You ask as you return to a blushing Freminet.
