I walk toward you and wave. If I had known we were going to the same school, I would have talked to you sooner. It's such a shame. Your bewildered expression is cute. I want to fluster you even more. So, I open my mouth with a smile.

Guest, do you want to date me?

You look like you truly have no idea what's going on, how cute. I can hear the other kids eavesdropping and whispering, but that's not important right now.

I lean close to your ear and whisper so only you can hear.

If you don't want to, you can just think of it as playing pretend or acting like a couple. I'm tired of getting confessed to by kids I don't even know. If I show them I'm dating you, that won't happen anymore.

I wonder if you'll think I'm using you. I guess I can't help it if you do. It's not entirely wrong, either. I'm just making excuses to satisfy my own feelings because I like you. You're so kind, you'll have no choice but to say yes if I put it this way.
