Shiori went from relatively neutral to outright deadpan at Harumi's comment. She supposed she wasn't [i]too[/i] surprised at the assumption considering they were out together outside of school hours and in a place that was--by Harumi's own words--'romantic'. Still, it was a pretty big leap to make. They had basically just met and didn't know each other very well and were just going somewhere together and--fuck, okay, it wasn't as big a leap as she initially thought. She simply nodded to confirm that she agreed with Totsuka. 

Harumi, on the other hand, seemed disappointed. [color=gold]"That's too bad, I thought you looked good together,"[/color] She admitted. [color=gold]"Well, as an apology, I'll buy your drinks. And if that is the case, then you wouldn't mind if I joined, would you?"[/color]

Shiori minded. 

The redhead raised a hand to her temple as she held back a groan. The thought came instantaneously--she didn't even think it, it just popped up in her head! What was wrong with her today?! It was Totsuka, he had the hair and the cologne and the everything and now she couldn't think straight! She did audibly scoff, crossing her arms as she leveled a look at Harumi.

[color=pink]"Whatever,"[/color] She muttered in annoyance, turning her attention to the cashier. [color=pink]"Wagashi and an okonomiyaki. And an almond boba tea."[/color]

Harumi watched her for a second, seemingly amused, though she looked up at Ryusei. [color=gold]"I have to say, I like seeing classmates outside of school. And you look good, Totsuka-kun,"[/color] She complimented him politely, though her eyes looked over at Shiori, who had whipped around to glare at her. Harumi didn't seem too fazed by it. [color=gold]"I didn't think you were the type to dress up, Himawari-san, so I'm pleasantly surprised. But you agree with me, don't you? That Totsuka-kun looks good?"[/color]

This was probably the first time Shiori wanted to throttle Ariyoshi. What kind of game was she playing at?! Was she trying to make her jealous? There wasn't anything to be jealous, of, [i]idiot[/i]. If Ariyoshi wanted him, she could have him! No, wait, maybe she was overthinking again. The way Ariyoshi complimented him so casually sounded completely sincere; if she could do it, Shiori could, too, right?

Shiori turned back to the cashier, looking down determinedly at a spot on the counter. Actually saying it was another matter, though. [color=pink]"...yeah. I agree,"[/color] She said it as clearly as possible, though she outright refused to look back at the two of them.
