Mika couldn't help but give a nod of 'touche' when he pointed out he would be pretty crap friend if he didn't come to her rescue every now and then. She had to admit he did make a valid point that it would make him a crap mate if he just left her to be bullied and tormented by the other students but she also was always raised by her mother (and father) to be a polite and considerate person, that no matter who it was, she had to thank them for any kind gesture that was given to her. So for her, Dean was no exception, even if he did always tell her not to thank him, she would do it every single time. 

She didn't even think about what his thoughts were when she was wearing his jacket, she just kept thinking how comfortable it was and how much it smelled like Dean. Although it swamped her torso, she couldn't help but feel slightly invincible when she wore it. She followed him down the stairs, noting how he still kept the alarm rig in tact for them so they always knew if they would disturbed or not. She made it downstairs with no problem but always noticed how he stayed close incase she tripped or fell in some way, and when he almost prtected her whilst he checked the coast was clear in the school hallway. 

Stepping out onto the halls, she looked up at him briefly before looking in the direction they were walking again as he told her where he thought they could go for lunch. She was honestly so glad not to be going to the school cafeteria for lunch as the school's food was utterly awful in her opinion. She heard him as he kept rambling and starting to stutter on certain words which made her smile and she had to chuckle when he told himself to shut up. 

"Dean..." she started saying, making him pause for just a brief moment as they etched closer and closer to the exit of the school. She saw him blushing and for the first time she actually got a clue that he possibly liked her the same way she liked him. "If you're wanting this to be a date because you like me more than best friends, then yeah, we can talk about it because...because I've feeling the same way" she told him, her own cheeks getting tinted slightly pink from her own blushing.
