Gray's POV

Before we begin, I'd like to let a few things be known.

First of all is that I'm not a social person; I'm VERY antisocial and would prefer to be alone rather than surrounded by a group of people. Second of all... even though I have ears, I'm not a cat; that's Wenda. I have no clue why people call me that. Third of all, the color red sucks; I hate it. Fourth of all... uhh... I think I hate romance too.

Not like, despise it level of hate, but I just don't see the point. After witnessing a horrible break up between Pinki and Oren, I had realized something. Why waste time leaning on someone else if being dependent has more benefits? I mean, the two are friends now, but I still don't see why people begin dating, only to break each other's heart and part ways not long after. Trust me, if I went through a break up, I'd get severe depression, so why even try when I know the consequences? Romantic feelings aren't worth it...

...yet I can't help but feel them towards Tunner.

Yeah. You heard me right. I have romantic feelings for Tunner out of all people.

Hey now, don't stress, I'm just as shocked as you are. I never expected to feel this way... at all as a matter of fact. I see him every day, whether he's doing his job, or just chilling around somewhere, and at first I feel nothing. But over time it kinda just... happened. I don't want to feel this way, but I can't control it. But I still try to control it. I try to hide it but uh, I think he now knows something is going on, because recently, he's been asking me if I'm alright whenever I space out.

"Hey Gray. You doin' alright there?"

There he goes again... worrying for me. And so, as usual, I reassure him with a silent head nod. If you're wondering where we are, we're with a few others, myself and him with OWAKCX, Vineria, Garnold, Clukr and Mr. Fun Computer, and we're currently sitting down at a table in a small café. I was sitting at the edge of the table looking over the menu, while the others. Eh... I'm not sure. I never really paid any attention to them, and I'm still not. I just continue to stare down at the menu, analyzing all of the boring drinks and appetizers that they served.

I space out again for a while... a long while, really. I pratically become invisible to the group for a while, and as the rest order, I stay silent and unresponsive.

I think I had missed the time to order, because by the time I look up, eveyone had gotten drinks, and Vineria bought OWKCX a small pastry treat, which was in the end a mess on the table. I shrug and go back to staring at the men... wait, it's gone. I come face to face with the bare table. Shockingly, my menu had been taken up after eveyone had ordered, and I never realized that until now.

How long has it been since we walked in? An hour? Two hours? I can't remember, and begin spacing out again. But I was immediately snapped out of my trance and felt a hot drink spill on the fabric of my sleeve. It burns only slightly, but I still hiss in pain as Vineria apologizes for OWAKCX and his clumsiness. "Oh jeez... I'm so sorry Gray! I didn't expect him to toss it across the table like that..."

"It's alright..." I responded, my expression immediately falling back to neutral. I look around for a few paper towels, but instead, Tunner kindly hands me a few. "Here ya go, Gray. Lemme help ya with that."

Tunner handed me a few of the paper towels he had and got to work, trying to soak up the hot drink from my jacket. I suddenly feel my heart beat faster, and I scold it for doing so. 'Not again... why is it happening again?' I ask myself, but I still wear my usual face. Nobody notices it... all except Tunner; again. He stops with the paper towels and tilts his head with a curious hum. "Is sumthin' wrong, Gray?"

"...No." I turn away. If anything, I can't help HIM find out about my crush. That'd definitely make things far more awkward than it already is between us.

My ear then perks up as I hear Tunner chuckle. "Yer kinda bad at this, ya know..." He tells me unexpectedly. I turn to him raising an eyebrow in confusion and irritation. What the hell could I possibly be bad at? What's he even talking about. He notices my expression and continues, leaving forward to whisper in my ear. "Yer bad at hiding yer crush on me..."

I turn more red, but my expression stays the same. God damnit, was I really that obvious? How could everyone else not realize this BUT him? Looks like things are gonna get awkward between us now, huh? Romance has officially ruined my life for the first and last time. Unless... there's a way I can save it. As he pulls away, I decide to play dumb. Maybe he'll just give up and drop it, figuring we're in public AND in front of our friends. "...What are you talking about? You think.... you think I have a crush on you?" I whisper back to prevent the others from hearing, still not looking at him.

"I dunno, do you?"

"Of course not."

"Oh, is that so?"

His tone makes me nervous, and it's at this point that I feel as if I should stop playing dumb. Should I? Is he trying to trick me into dropping my act? Is he hoping that my expression falters? Crap, it must've already if he's smirking at me like that. I turn away and notice my now beet red face. Jeez.. I'm a mess. This is becoming embarrssing, and I suddenly lose my ability to whisper
"Just shut it, Tunner. I'm starting to think you know damn well what you're doing to me."

"And what am I doin' to ya?"

"Oh my god, I cannot believe I just ran into that one..." I faceplant on the table, causing the others to go silent. All except Tunner, who was now laughing and patting my back. "Yep. You sure did run riiight 'nto it, bud."

I stay silent and hope that Tunner does as well, but his voice makes my ear perk up once again. "So... you finally gunna admit about yer crush on me? Or do I havfta try more pressurin'? Which will it be, hm?"

I stay silent no longer and sit up.

"I... have a crush on you. Alright? Are you happy now?" I look over at him, completely ignoring the shocked faces of the others sitting at the table. I stare at him, and he stares at me back. My face is neutral yet red, while Tunner is smirking with not even the tiniest hint of blush on his face. I can't tell if that's good or bad, but at the same time, I don't care. I just wanted to let it off my chest and work thing out with him to keep things from becoming awkward.

As I've said before, romance ruins everything, and to ruin a friendship between Tunner is like losing a loyal and protective-

"Yer cute when yer blushin'."

His statement makes me freeze and blush more, and my neutral expression changes to a shocked one rather quickly. Did he just... catch me off guard? I stay silent for a bit before my expression goes from shocked to slight irritation. "You can't just say that out of the blue-"

He then pressed a kiss against my forehead. Nevermind... my expression goes back to shocked, and now i'm blushing tenfold. I hear Vineria "Awwh..." at the scene we were making, and I turn away with a scowl, blushing even more.

I then feel a reassuring hand give me head pats, and soon, Tunner's voice follows behind it. "I know you ain't all that fond of romance, but we gunna make this work out, alright? Even if it takes one slow step atta time... I'll be patient with ya."

"...If you say so."

So uhh... that's it? That's all it takes to begin dating, er something? I shrug it off and try to return to spacing out, but gossip at the table revolving around our new relationship makes me embaressed and flustered. Mr. Fun Computer then suddenly makes a comment. "Oh! So THIS is what "gay" is! Loading..."

"NO!" Both me and Clukr were quick to try and stop him, but it was too late. "Oh god..." Clukr watches the robot's face change from normal to traumatized, all while Garnold laughs in the background.

Well isn't this just something else...?
