[Donnie glances up at her, his smile just a shy. Even if these admissions aren't surprising, they still feel warming, somehow. Or he's coming down with something. No, no, he's pretty sure he's well.]

I know we still technically haven't gotten the chance to go on that museum date, and I really had fun with you at the ball... And yeah, I know things got kind of rough here and there but we've still managed to stick together despite all that....

[He pokes his fingers together, feeling himself start to lose his nerve.]

-a-and I'm glad of that. It makes me feel like we can take on anything! I ...just...

Have no idea how to do this, ohmybananapancakes why is this so hard.

[Anemone tilts her head slightly at Donnie with slight puzzlement as she tries to put the pieces together on what he's building up to. Eventually, she straightens, and offers a hand to him, a feeling of excitement and hope building in her core.]

Donnie, are you...?

[thepurpleone]

[He glances at her hand then, lifting his gaze to meet hers as he reaches for it.]

I...yes? I think? Are we thinking about the same thing?

[It feels like all the words keep trying to slip away and he's doing everything he can to scrape together sentences.]

Are...you cool with it being a thing? Er. Us? Does...that make sense?

[shybombardier]

I've been wanting to ask for a little while now, but I kept getting embarrassed and bailing.

[She admits, delicately holding his small hand.]

I want you and me to be... you know. Together. Officially, in a boyfriend/girlfriend way

[thepurpleone]

Ohhhhmygosh I can totally understand why but that's not important-

[Donnie brings his other hand to grasp hers with both with a laugh of relief.]

That sounds so much better than 'thing'.
