AN: really? (is it just me or does the title seem irrelevant at this point?)

"Raven lived her life as a boy, remember?" said Maya with red cheeks, "look at Joey..."

Looking at Joey, Camilla saw him unconscious in Rain's arms.

"Hehe..." Rain laughed as her face twitched forming a rather complex expression.

"... Say say,"

"Aha?" Maya replied to Camilla's raised eye brows.

"What do you think will happen when she goes to the washroom?" Camilla said with a frown, as she was serious about the question.

"Hehee..." Looking at Maya who instantly turned beet red Camilla couldn't help but chuckle to herself. "I bet she'll have fun, you know, discovering her new self...

"Oh and when do you think she'll start acting like a girl, since you know, she's a girl?" she said with a sarcastic shrug.

"Do you think she'll be interested in boys, rather than girls like now? I'm rather curious... Say what do-"

Camilla stopped talking the moment she saw the look on Maya's face. Unlike a second ago, she was drained of all colours. She was pale white and not red.

Her eyes were wide in shock, almost... realization? She cupped her face with her tiny hands as she rocked back and forth, muttering nonsense.

"Err, you alright there...?" Camilla approached Maya just a second before she fell unconscious.

"Oh. My. God... alright we have a third! Shall we have a fourth?" Camilla said in an annoyed yet sarcastic tone. She was referring to Raven fainting first, followed by Joey, and now Maya.

However, Maya didn't faint for the same reason as the first two. She knew her chances of being someone... of importance to Raven, were rather low.

Even though she knew how she viewed her as a sister and a close friend, Maya wanted to be more, even though she's tried before and given up many times.

She was determined to either be her loved one, or find her a good one that will never betray her trust.

Naturally, being her sister had lowered her chances of success to just a little bit above zero.

However, now that Raven was a girl, and the idea of her having interest in boys rather than girls almost gave her a heart attack.

She could do nothing, absolutely nothing about her biological body and the thought of her chances dropping to absolute zero had caused her to faint.

The silver girl waited patiently for the crimson-purple to wake up again.

Although the wait was rather awkward since she couldn't communicate with anyone else, everyone had so much on their mind to feel it.

About half an hour or so had passed before all three had woken up, Raven was the first to wake up with a still red face.

The last one was Maya. The moment she woke up she strode hurriedly towards Raven, took her by the hand, and dragged her a little bit deeper into the forest.

"Eh? Maya are you alright?" Raven was surprised but she didn't resist.

The silver girl was naturally running behind them, but Maya didn't care since she couldn't understand them.

"Raven..." Maya said after they've walked for about two minutes.

"I'm listening," Raven said with a caring tone that made Maya hate herself. She didn't mean to worry Raven but she had to ask about this or she'll be killing herself from the inside.

"Please be honest with me," Maya said with a determined look on her face. "Is there a chance that after you... err, live as a girl for a while, you'll start taking interest into boys?"

'Ewww noooooo!!' was what Raven's mind yelled all of a sudden, but she stopped the thought from escaping her mouth.

The only reason she wasn't into boys was because she was one before, and not only that, but also she's never felt a thing towards any boy.

Some of her male friends liked other boys, such as Mike who used to always hit on her when she was a boy.

Even though it wasn't her place to judge, a sudden shiver ran down Raven's spine as the tiny hair on her arms stood to an end, just from remembering Mike's cringy pick up lines.

'Me turning out to be a girl is... a rather harsh joke life had to share with me, but girls are my personal preference nonetheless.' she thought to herself.

"Let me ask you this," Raven was so embarrassed that she started fiddling with her fingers without noticing, "as a girl that had always been into boys, how would you feel about, err, you know, liking girls I guess."

Her cheeks were so warm that even Maya could feel their heat.

Raven's purpose of asking the question was a rhetorical one, she was just making the comparison between the two of them, indicated that she wasn't and won't be into boys.

Yet Maya surprised her greatly.

"I've never been into boys..." Maya said with beet red face.

"You're into girls?" Raven was surprised for more than one reason, but she had idea how to express her emotions at the moment.

"Nàa," Maya shook her head slightly while looking down, "I've always liked... you, nothing more and nothing less, it's just that... I liked your personality! I've never paid attention to anything else...

"Don't get me wrong! You're so gorgeous! I- I..." Maya's everything glowed red as she just realized that she's officially, and rather formally to some extent, had confessed her love to Raven.

Not that it was her first time, but it still felt... embarrassing everytime. No, this time was way worse, she's basically confessed that she had not interest in either genders... but in whatever Raven may be or will become in the future.

Maya covered her face and stared at her feet, fearing the predictable refusal she's always expected. 'It's gonna sting...' she thought to herself.

To her surprise however, Raven didn't say anything, but rather started to cry silently.

*sniff*

Her tender arms wrapped around Maya's little frame as her tears ran down her neck, making her feel way worse than before.

"I'm so sorry, I swear I didn't mean to do this to you- I, I..." Raven started talking but Maya couldn't understand what she meant. No, rather why she meant it.

"What do you mean? You didn't do anything!" Maya replied.

All the while, the silver girl was watching like a deaf person in a consort, she saw yet could understand absolutely nothing of the events unfolding just in front of her.

Raven wanted to reply, say that she's made Maya so reliant on her, that she's broken her, that-

"Raven!"

"Huh?"

"Stay still for a second!" Maya said loudly as she kissed Raven's warm forehead. "YOU'RE NOT RED FROM EMBARRASSMENT, THAT'S FEVER!"

It all made sense, she's basically just fought a monster king without much mana left in her. Not just that, but she's taken on another form.

Last time she was Kayla, she'd lost her consciousness for almost a day. And fever was so bad then.

Maya cursed her stupidity for doing what she did as she knew Raven wasn't in the best condition. 'I knew she wouldn't cry easily! It's either the fever or the new damn hormones running down her veins!

'I f*cking bet she's suffering from hallucinations!'

Maya clenched her fists for a second before taking Raven between her arms, in a princess carry, and running back to the group.

The silver girl followed again while holding the baby tightly.. 'Why wouldn't they explain what's happening!' She complained in her mind. 'Crimson-purple girl tell me what's happening please!'
