Tales of Spinel and Anon, part 6:
>It had been a month since Anon had met Spinel. The pair had spent a decent amount of time together, hanging out, watching movies, playing video games, reading books side by side, even taking Spinel's warp pad to travel to a few different spots.
>Their friendship was strong, but Anon found himself longing for more. He hadn't told her yet, but when he was around her, he felt like everything was right, like his life was complete. He wanted to spend even more time with her, he wanted to become more than just friends with her. He wanted to hold her closer than the brief hugs they had shared. He wanted to really feel her in his embrace.
>It was with that thought in mind that Anon met up with Spinel in front of the billboard heading out of Beach City, like they usually did. Anon had gotten to their meeting spot ten minutes early, had been running what he wanted to say to Spinel in his mind during the minutes before her arrival.
>The sound of her squeaky shoes snapped him out of his thought and brought a smile to his face. Her squeaks were just one of many quirks about her he found so lovable. "She's so full of joy and energy, and still new to a lot of things on Earth. We've shown each other a lot in this month, but I want to show her more, and I want to learn more from her too. You can do this Anon, just keep your cool and do it."
>Spinel's voice called out to Anon as she stopped walking, her legs stretching back down to their normal length as she arrived at Anon's green car. "Heya Anon! Boy, you love getting here early lately, just couldn't wait to see little old me again, could ya? What are we getting into today?"
>Anon swallowed hard. This was it, an opportunity to say what was on his mind. "Before we hang out today I.....I want to ask you something."
