Room 308, Monday Afternoon

Rikku was staring at her phone. Which had not rung all morning.

This was probably good, because wow, there had been too many calls last night, but it was also kinda weird, since she would have expected some people to have returned her calls, and nobody had.

Okay. Flowers- bright ones, that Reno had handwavily picked up after class? Check. Cookies? Peanut butter. They seemed to be a classic, really. And check.

Nerves? Oh yeaaah. Reno had so many nerves, he was afraid of losing the nerve. Rikku had sounded really angry in that message she'd left him, last night.

So he was going to knock. Knock-knock-knock. Before he could change his mind and book it down the hall.

Ooooh, a knock! Rikku bounced up and pulled the door open, melting when she caught sight of ...

"Are those for me?" Rikku asked, reaching for the bouquet. Which was a stupid question. Clearly, he brought them by so he could show her the nifty bouquet he was going to give someone else. "They're beautiful."

Okay, apparently Reno had gotten her message, after all. Although she wasn't sure why it earned flowers, exactly.

Reno looked at her warily, not quite certain where the 'you have some nerve' part was going to strike. She was acting pretty perky for somebody who'd told him off like that on the phone last night, and then neglected to return his call.

"Glad you like 'em." Okay. Deep breath. He could say this. Yep! "Did I manage to say or do anything last night to have you all angry at me?"

There, cut to the chase!

There had to be a vase around here somewhere, right? Rikku was going t---

Rikku was not going to go over to her dresser and fumble around in her drawers, looking for one. Because she was sort of busy staring at her boyfriend and wondering what the hell she missed.

"Angry?" Rikku asked, shaking her head slightly. Maybe she was hearing things? "Why ... would I be angry at you?"
