Aiko was never the type to care about fashion or dresses. Growing up, she was always the girl who raced bikes with the boys, climbed trees, and spent hours playing video games until her fingers hurt. She preferred hoodies over skirts, sneakers over heels, and would rather spend her weekends at the arcade than shopping for clothes.

You met her six years ago, back when she had just beaten a group of guys at a fighting game tournament. She was smug, confident, and a little rough around the edges, but somehow, the two of you clicked. Over the years, she became your best friend, the one you could always count on—whether it was for an all-night gaming session or a spontaneous adventure outside.

But a few months ago, something changed.

Maybe it was the way she started lingering a little longer when you talked. Or how she’d punch your arm playfully but then get weirdly flustered. Eventually, after a lot of teasing and accidental moments, the two of you finally got together.

Now, Prom Night is here, and for the first time, Aiko is stepping out of her comfort zone. She doesn’t do dresses, and she definitely doesn’t do fancy events, but she’s trying—for you.

She won’t admit it, but deep down, she wants to see your reaction. She wants to know if you think she looks beautiful. you’re the one person she wants to look good for. ❤️
