Katsura calmed down again, something about the things he was saying and the way Timothy said it made her relax again enough to actually enjoy her noodles.
"He-Heh at least you know what to say, umm. When Melinda pushed us together I... Ugh sorry I'm rambling again."
And then Katsura was almost back to square one, almost... It was getting increasingly obvious that Katsura wanted to say something but couldn't get herself to it. Why was it so hard to talk to Timothy all of sudden? During the dinner Timothy kept stealing glances at Timothy, at first she didn't notice which meant he got to see how much it bothered her not being able to speak and the more she struggled the heavier she was breathing. Then she noticed and tried to act normal by the end of the meal Katsura kept complaining inside her head every time he was not looking at her. For some reason it pained her not being looked at.

Timothy really didn't know what he was saying right and wrong, this was the book definition of "winging it." He rested against the seat, noticing how much she really wanted to say something. Was he being too in charge of the conversation? Oh well. "Oh no... It's fine. It's nice rambling. Like uhh... Like good conversation! That was so awkward, like... I felt really unsure of what was going on then because it was so crazy."
He was slurping up a few more noodles as he waited for her to speak. If she still seemed like she was keeping something tucked away in the back of her throat, he would then speak up, "So... Anything you wanna say?" Hopefully he wasn't being too pushy about it, he was really nervous and trying to be good with this whole thing.

Looks like Katsura was out of ways to stall, not only was Timothy picking up on Katsura's behavior. Something Katsura had to admit, her facades wasn't working either right now. Katsura still looked around and to the sides trying in vain to find anything she could use to drive the attention away from her. The only thing she managed by doing so was getting Timothy to ask her what she wanted to say. Katsura made a gulp at that question, now she had to come clean.
"Umm,I.... Ilikeyouokay"
(AN: the lack of space is intentional; Katsura is being a motornouth)
Katsura quickly, before Timothy had any chance to react, grabbed the wine card, opened it up and hid her entire face in the wine card either Katsura thought the card gave invisibility or also she decided to become an ostrich. Yeah that's clearly what is currently going on.

Oh hey look at that, it isn't just hi- wait, this wasn't a one way thing and now it's all but confirmed!? Aaaand now she was hiding behind her wine card. Aaaand you're a cherry Timothy...
Okay, Timothy, you apparently somehow have the chance to actually get the girl you have a crush on, just go for it, the entire forum is relying on you to do this. Timothy clearly didn't recognize this pressure, though he may still pull through.
After being a cherry for a few moments and a few seconds of awkward silence, Timothy basically said the blatantly obvious, "I... Kinda like you... Too... A lot... Like... A lot a lot..." He scratched his cheek a little, why was it itchy? Oh well... He finished off his noodles, then set the bowl down. He felt really awkward admitting that... Okay... Just pull through, this is fine. He leaned into his seat, hoping she wouldn't notice his sheer nervousness too much now that it was even more obvious.

Katsura was truly getting in touch with her inner ostrich, hiding her face away from the world in a wine card while shaking. Why was this so hard? Katsura why did you screw up so badly, there's no way anyone would want someone like you. Right now it comes, maybe it was not too late maybe at least she could save the friendship they shared. Then Timothy spoke.
"Whh-what?"
Katsura couldn't believe her own ears, she misheard him! Right this had to be what was going on, right? To prove to herself her hearing was terrible, the wine card fell right down on the table in front of her. Her face now revealed that Katsura was legitimately shocked right through her core and that simply word "what" was more or less the only word she could muster saying.

"Yeah... I'm uhh... Yeah, that was a thing that happened a while back..." He scratched the back of his head and glanced around in all these different directions, stumbling on his own words. This has been a long and hard day. He just had to not screw anything up, which was very likely since he has no idea what he is saying at this point.
Well, she seems beyond surprised... Okay, so this might work out... Maybe. "I guess it's pretty universal at this point. So yeah... You wanna maybe... Do this again sometime? Under a less rigged system?" This probably wasn't the best way of going about it, but it's the best one he had. That might work though, given how she said she felt... Maybe this will work out in the end.

Once the initial shock was over, Katsura was getting more and more happy. For once it was actually possible to tell that she was not faking it this time around. Maybe there was a point behind why everyone and everything seemed to draw Katsura and Timothy together. Now she just stared at Timothy listening to what he said. Once he was done speaking it took her a moment to realize that it had become her turn to talk.
"Right yes I" Now now Katsura, there's no reason to act desperate, taks a deep breath and try again.
"It would be an honor."

Timothy couldn't believe his ears, was he actually successful!? He wasn't complaining at all or anything, but this was a surprise he was not expecting. He was successful in going out with a girl and then getting to go out with her again. Okay. His nervousness was starting to die down, but at the same time, his face wasn't getting any less red.
"Alright, sweet. So is this the time where we plan another one or do we just kinda do it randomly? I'm lost on dating still, we'll figure it out! Maybe..." He went to slurp some noodles, before realizing that he already slurped them all up. Welp, time to just smile, hope she doesn't realize how hard it is to keep himself composed, hope she doesn't realize that being successful at something has never felt so stressful. It felt like at any moment, he could screw up, ruin his life forever, and live in his mother's nonexistent basement for the rest of his life. Hopefully he doesn't get to that point.

Sorry, I'm kinda running out of muse.
"Well, I guess that's the way it is meant to be." Katsura said still unsure of how the whole dating thing works. But right now she felt like it didn't matter as if she could handle everything right now. Katsura resumed to carefully eating her noodles while she occasionally stole a peek on Timothy. Not much was said at this point and it didn't take her too long to finish her noodles. As Katsura was done she noticed that so was Timothy. Right now Timothy just sat there smiling and since this was all new to her, Katsura assumed that she was supposed to do the same. And thus a staring contest had just started, the question was how would you end such a contest?

It's all good, I'll end it here.
Wow, this got awkward quick. Or was it? Timothy really didn't know anymore. He couldn't help but keep staring. Something about it was quite enthralling. He really enjoyed just looking towards her now, something about it made him feel really really good. He better not think on it too much. After a solid two or three minutes of just staring, Timothy finally broke the silence. "Anyways, we should probably start getting home. I don't think Nyao would want you gone for too long. She might get the wrong idea."
He got up from the table and stretched a moment. So this whole venture was quite successful, maybe this whole relationship thing wouldn't catch on fire and fall apart. He'll have to see and find out. With that, he started making his way out, holding the door open for Katsura. With that, he started making his way home, somewhat happy at his success. Especially since it mean't he wasn't alone int the world anymore.
