Now alone with Fiora, Orion gently turned his gaze toward her, his voice soft and inviting as he carefully asked, "What do you think about going out for some fun, Fiora?"
Fiora's eyes widened briefly in surprise, a faint blush spreading across her cheeks. Quickly composing herself, she shyly nodded her head, "Y-Yes, I would like that. Let me go and t-tell Rina about this."
As she moved to rise, Orion reached out gently, his fingers softly encircling her delicate wrist. Fiora paused immediately, her heartbeat quickening at the contact. Orion shook his head lightly, a warm, comforting expression upon his face.
"No, this time, only you and I will be going," he softly clarified, his voice filled with reassuring warmth.
Fiora's eyes widened again, surprise and shyness mingling deeply within her gentle gaze. Her voice grew quieter, soft and hesitant, filled with worry for her friend, "B-But… Rina might feel hurt by this."
