A lot of thinking had been done. A lot of consideration and some more self-loathing and what have you that lead to the fact that, yeah, something had to be done here. He had to get Teddy back. Somehow.

Potentially embarrassing himself in front of the whole school seemed to be as good a solution than any, and, really, couldn't be worse than the whole cheerleading thing (which he wasn't getting to like, really, honestly...shut up).

After a few very carefully aimed and tossed rocks up at the window to room 422 (hey, Chad had a pretty good arm), he picked up the boombox and pushed play, holding it up as he filled the morning air with the sounds of Peter Gabriel's voice. In Your Eyes.

Hey, it worked for that one guy in that one movie, right? Chad actually couldn't remember how it went, but he'd been up all night after a long day of emo and work, and this was what he had to offer as a result.

...He really hoped he had the right window...

"So, like..." Chad frowned, still trying to make sense of it, thinking it kind of weird, but, at this point, he'd do almost anything if it meant getting back together with Teddy, so he'd go along with it as best he could. "...How, uh, does that work?"

Chad was so very lucky he was darn adorable when he was confused.

"Go on a few dates, hang out, you know, like normal couples do," Teddy said patiently.

The thing that had Chad confused was the fact that he pretty much figured that's what they did now. Well, okay, they didn't really go on dates, unless you including borderline inappropriate cuddling in the lounge at Caritas after gigs as dates, which Chad totally did.

"Uh, okay..." he said, kind of nervously because he still felt he was missing something about this whole thing and really didn't want to screw things up.

Ah, but with one big difference...

"Not starting with sex like we did last time," He continued.

...It wasn't like he had intended for it to start like that! In fact, if Chad recalled, he wasn't intending to start anything back then, and one thing lead to another and...

...okay, he could kind of see where Teddy was coming from a little better now.

He...could do this. Never really had before, not really, but he could...He hoped...

Chad nodded. "So, uh, when do we start?" Sooner they started, the sooner they could, theoretically, get back to where they were before this whole mess.

"I'm going to get ready for work now, and you," He said jabbing Chad in the center of his chest and lifting his chin to look him in the eye. "Are going to ask me on a date."

Chad gingerly rubbed at the spot where he'd been poked as he looked back at Teddy, thinking it rather silly to be asking him out on a date, but, then again, he had just stood in the middle of the school grounds playing...ugh, Peter Gabriel.

Nope. Still weird and awkward. But he did it anyway.

"So, uhhh, Teddy. You wanna go on a date with me?"

That wasn't so hard now, was it?

Teddy smiled and nodded, standing on his toes to give Chad a very quick, chaste kiss. "Love to."

Hard, no. Awkward and weird, yes. But at least Chad didn't get shot down?

"Cool. Free tonight?" He tried to think of what might maybe be a good false-first date thing to do.

But it was adorable and totally earned him brownie points.

Teddy nodded. "Stop by my room after work."

Chad nodded back. "I think I can do that."
