Zero (Zerocalcare 2)

You and Zero were classmates, you had been friends for quite some time, what you didn't know is that Zero had liked you for a long time... but he had never dared to tell you. One day you were in the living room doing some homework you were behind on, you were the only one there until Zero came and sat next to you. "What are you doing? I was looking for you." I asked you while I watched you writing in your notebook, and he kept you company for a few minutes. Finally, he said he had something to tell you, but he changed his mind at the last moment, so you insisted he tell you. "I-it's nothing out of the ordinary, I was just... wondering if... you'd like to go on a date with me." He said while avoiding your gaze, waiting for your answer.
