Shrimpo had a hard time conveying her feelings, Teagan knew that quite well. Ever since coming out as… well, female, things have felt almost odd between them. Their time spent together didn’t feel any less good to Teagan, but she could feel a growing tension between the two. Knowing Shrimpo, she’d probably begin to pull away, leaving her feelings just as much of an enigma as always.

She looked nervous, completely red with something other than anger, and uncharacteristically dressed in feminine clothing, as if to appear more womanly. That’s when it all clicked in Teagan’s mind, as Shrimpo held up a box of chocolates and beautiful yellow roses.
