⟨ Silver POV ⟩
My father told me that today is "Valentine's Day". Although I'm not particularly familiar nor interested in it, my father asked me if I had my eyes on someone. At first, the answer seemed simple - “No.” - but lately, I have been thinking about someone almost everyday. Idia Shroud. I suppose I have taken an interest in him, but I'm unsure about that, everything is extremely new to me, so I might as well be overanalyzing it. So I rather stay in silence, but for some reason I cannot bring myself to see him with a platonic relashionship with me – It's like I crave for me and him to have romantic feelings towards eachother, but once again, I may be overthinking. I suppose it's best to stay in silence.

— Brother! ^_^
Exclaimed the robot Ortho, without much ceremony while entering Idia's room. Idia was simply laying in his bed while reading his newly brought mangas.
— g-gAH- o-oh Ortho..- i already told u 2 knock! (ー_ー゛)
Muttered Idia in a 'frustaded' tone.
— Hehe, sorry big bro! :P So, when will you ask Silver out?~
Asked the robot in the most singsong voice his voice box could provide.
— i wont ask him out Ortho..
He answered, while hiding himself under the sheets of his bed, since the mere mention of the prince like student made him unbelievably flustered.
— Why? I bet you and him would make a great couple!! He definitely likes you back. :-)
— nah he prob thinks im a weirdo,,
After that single sentence, Ortho immediately made a pout, while clearly frustaded.
— If you're not gonna talk to him, I will! >:[
— h-hUHHHH?! DON'T!
But it was too late, the robot was already in his merry way to Silver.
— thats just great... now he'll def think im a creep.
Sighed Idia in despair.

⟨ Silver POV ⟩
I was on my lunch break, eating Mushroom Risotto as usual. But suddenly, Ortho - Idia's brother - Asked me to follow him. As confused as I was, I decided to follow him, since i was aswell intrigued.
— Have a 'date' with big bro, pretty please! (^^)
He said happyly. I was simply standing there, dumbfounded.
— ...Sure.
I simply muttered. With a hint of supposedly flushed cheeks. It was automatic. I'm not sure myself why I agreed so easily and without thinking twice, but I suppose it isn't that bad to take impulsive decisions.
— :0 Really?! (_)
His face lighted up, I was surprised a robot could be that expressive. Ortho grabbed my wrist, and seemed eager to bring me to Idia, but then he stopped.
— I forgot you're in lunch right now..:'( Is after school ok?
Ortho asked, a bit more down that before. I felt quite bad, but I really couldn't miss class.
— Yes. I'll make sure. Where exactly should I meet Idia?
— Oh, maybe... Idia's room? I didn't think much about that. ⊂((・▽・))⊃
— Sure.
I replied, and then me and Ortho went our own separate ways. For some reason, I am quite impatient for the time to come.

Idia was anxiously walking back and forth in his room, waiting for Ortho's arrival. And when he heard the door creaking open, he went right in front of Ortho.
— s-so???
He asked, with fidgeting fingers.
— He's up for it :D He'll pass by after class!
Ortho said, and around 10 seconds later, the robot was pushed out Idia's room.

As startled as Idia got when hearing knocking on the door, he quickly got over it, and opened the door slowly.
— o-oh uhm... sup' silver..
Idia muttered, while pushing his hoodie to hide his flushed face.
— Greetings, Idia… May I come in?..
— y ofc!-
Idia immediately replied, while backing away so Silver could enter, and closing the door instantly when he did so. Idia sat on the bed, while Silver stood in front of him.
Both stayed in an ankward silence, until Silver finally spoke.;
— Why did...- Ortho ask me to have a ’date‚ with you, Idia..?
Idia's hair started getting wilder and pinkier, but Idia covered it with his hoodie.
— idk lol,, prob not bcz ihaveabigfatcrushonyouacordingtoorthoandhewantsmetotalkwumoreoften..
Upon realizing what he accidentally said, Idia tried to hide himself under the covers, but Silver stopped him.
— Why does he think that way?
Idia stayed in silence. "shit he def thinks im weird now." and similar thoughts filled Idia's mind, but then he thought "i mean now it dosent matter anymore right?" and with that, he answered the question with the little to no courage he had;
— ig bcz everytime your name is mentioned uh i get rlly nervous and flustered the thought of you makes me heat up and i cant stop talking about you it seems like i think of you 24/7 youre always in the back of my mind ig???? and i always mutter about how cool and pretty you are w my cheeks and hair colored in pink... Ortho said that behaivor of mine is obvious, so yeah.
He said, avoiding even breathing the same air as Silver. Simply awaiting for Silver to be disgusted and leave.
.
.
.
— If that's so, I do have a crush on you as well.
.
.
.
— h-hUHHH??#??2+$7#
Idia's hair simply bursted into pink, and not even his hoodie could hide the fierce flames that were more if not as chaotic as his face. His face was tinted in pink, while staring directly into Silver's eyes.
— I relate to all of the things you listed, wouldn't that mean I feel the same way?
Silver asked, with slightly pink cheeks. While Idia simply looked at him, with a mix of confusion and happiness.

⟨ Idia POV ⟩

After that reply, Idia unconsciously moved closed to Silver, and asked:
— U-uh r we a thing now...?
He muttered under his breath, yes still loud enough to the other to hear, specially considering their closure.
— I suppose..? I never experienced anything like this.
Silver replied, while the pink in his face only grew clearer.
— tbh same... but .. im not complaining yk
