Chasing after boys that could never be theirs. People often said dream big or go home, but there was a limit to those dreams, right?
Wait...not like her? Boys liked Kurumi? Well, if you wanted to count Connor then there were two, but Kurumi wasn't sure if there were those that liked her beyond the friendship stage. That is what frightened her so much about Ali and Jonathan. She had no idea what they were feeling and she didn't want to stick her neck out there again, only to have her head chopped off.
Not a very pleasant visual.
"Weren't you just telling me that I had to go for it?" she asked, playfully judging Selina. "Sounds like you might need to take your own advice. Although...there is one important question. Did you kiss him, or did he kiss you." That could make all the difference in the world really.
Selina looked at Kurumi and narrowed her eyes a little playfully,
"Kurumi... he was seventeen. I had a crush on a guy who was way to old for me and I think it was more of the fact that I admired him more than anything else you know? I don't know. Simon is a weird subject for me. I think I'm over him, but still the thought of him makes me smile. Is that weird?"
The two of them were a circus, a train wreck, another other analogy that stood for odd. Why was it that the two girls could never get a good grasp on how they were feeling? Every other girl at Hogwarts could flirt with a boy for a few weeks and then bam! The two started dating. Kurumi and Selina were not like that. They tended to be more reserved when it came to the whole boy subject. Maybe it was a fear that the two of them shared- getting hurt. Whatever it was it frustrated Selina to no end. There was a part of her that wanted to march up to Gideon and demand to know what was going on. The other part was afraid to hear the answer and she had no idea why. She knew that was how Kurumi was feeling about Johnathan and Ali.
She wrapped an arm back around Kurumi's shoulder,
"I get it, you know? The whole Ali and Johnathan thing. I mean at least I get part of it. You don't want to get hurt, I don't want to get hurt... we are a mess."
Selina laughed,
"You're right, I was the one just telling you to go for it. It's kind of hard to switch the mirror around on yourself though, Kurumi. I mean, I can give advice from dawn 'till dusk. But when it involves me I choke." Did he kiss her or did she kiss him? That was a hard question,
"It was weird... I mean I asked him, stupidly, what he would do if I kissed him. He said he didn't know and then he leaned down and I leaned up. I think I may have kissed him first, but he kissed me back. I don't know. I was my first kiss for Merlin's sake. A lot was going on internally."
