{Okay. Her birthday was over now, unfortunately, but that just meant that finally it was his chance. He knew he had a skirt on-- He didn't care. He knew she would think him weird, he didn't care. All he cared about was getting the girl.}
{So, there he was, striding through campus. Weird looks, giggles, calling names, he got the lot. But none of it mattered. It would all be worth it when Kirigiri was his girlfriend. He looked around for her before spotting her walking across the courtyard, most likely going back to her room. He called out to her, stopping her from going any further.}
—- Kirigiri! Hey, Kirigiri!
{He walked up to her with long steps, pausing just a few feet away from her. A quick tug at his skirt to get it to cover more of his legs and a slight adjustment of his ribbon before he cleared his throat and spoke up.}
—- Kirigiri. Remember on your birthday, how I asked you to be my girlfriend? You said you didn't want two anniversaries on that day, so... I'm asking again now. Ignore the skirt, I just want to know...
{He took a long breath, shutting his eyes for a moment and steadying himself.}
—- ... Will you be my girlfriend?
