"Okay, so, um..." How to start? To be honest, she wasn't even sure what she wanted to say - it was all still really, really confusing. But in a good way. Maybe. If she managed to salvage this.
Taking a deep breath, Leo started; "okay, I was really not expecting that. Not," she held up a hand, "to say that it was a bad thing. I was just... really not expecting that."
She took a second to mull over how to untangle this whole mess before continuing; "I've - I hadn't really considered this. Us. More than creeple regularly do that is - I mean, you're the most beautiful ghoul I know and maybe there was once or twice -" blushing, she tried to pretend that her voice wasn't going weird and soldiered on, "but anyway, what I meant to say is that I really didn't see this coming." Wait no, she'd already said that - what had she been working towards again?
"But I like you! You're my best friend in all of the worlds and you're, um, really attractive and -" she flailed, "we could try? Maybe? I've never had a ghoulfriend before; or a boilfriend for that matter, or anyone at all so I'm probably going to be really bad at this but if you're okay with that we could try?"
Fidgeting, it was her turn to be on the spot; had that been good enough? Words really weren't her strong suit and Leo was a bit afraid that they'd failed her today.
Yayoi
