~ After the kiss from the previous day, after their Sunday adventure, Flint wanted to fully commit his feelings to Ion, he stayed up all night finding the perfect words, writing a letter crafted of pure love, tomorrow at school he would have a chance to give it to him, if he could get up the courage. Monday came as they went to the academy like any other school day though Flint seamed distant from Ion, try as he might, Flint just couldn't get up the courage to give Ion the letter, constantly think tomorrow, tomorrow I will have a better chance. Tuesday came and while Flint worked up enough courage to face Ion, when it came down to it he shuddered before he could give him the letter, running away just as Ion asked him "what's wrong?" leaving him confused, Flint was mad with himself, not being able to confess his feelings the way he wanted, he felt hopeless and embarrassed, so much so that he left by midday, he just couldn't face Ion right now, not until he could give him the letter. Wednesday came and Flint slowly made his way to the academy, it was now or never, he had to do this, it was killing him, he just had to confess his feelings, no matter the answer from Ion, working his way through the halls, he found Ion by his locker, him wearing the female uniform this day like Flint who decided to do as well, it was something they usually did on the midweek, sometimes also on Friday as Ion enjoyed wearing it from time to time, he said he felt at home with it on sometimes and Flint just liked to help Ion feel comfortable, wearing it himself so Ion would not stand out by himself when he did. "This is the perfect chance" Flint thought, "I can do this... I need to do this...." he continued as he walked up behind Ion who was just shutting the door to his locker. "Ion!" Flint blurted out as he started to take deep breaths, "oh, hey! What happened to you yesterday..." Ion said as he turned around but was cut off, "he..r... here, please take this!" Flint blurted out in a blushed face, interrupting Ion's question as Ion eyed the letter in Flint's hands, figuring out the answer to his question, blushing himself.
"Was that why..." Ion started asking as Flint shut his eyes, "please take it, I can't hold back anymore, I... I need... I need to know your answer... whatever it may be... and I... I hope... I hope no matter what you don't..." Flint stuttered saying as Ion smiled and took the letter, "don't worry it is alright" Ion said in a calming voice as Flint opened his eyes and look back up at him, "thank you I will accept the letter" Ion said reassuringly as Flint's face beamed as Ion stared opening it, "take your time" Flint blurted out, "you don't need to read it right away, but I would like an answer when it pleased you" Flint continued as he looked down and twiddled his fingers as Ion resealed the letter and placed a hand on his shoulder "how about this? Give me a few day to read it over and think about it, is that acceptable to you?" Ion asked as Flint looked up and nodded, "Good! Meet me at noon on the rooftop of the academy this Friday, you will get my answer then :3" ~
