It's nothing that serious. [Oop. That sentence leaves his mouth and he winces immediately. That's only direct confirmation that there is something on his mind.
Ichiro scratches the back of his neck.] It's actually kind of stupid. [Okay, he takes a deep breath and he puts down whatever dishes he was holding while helping Tsumugi dry.] I got all up in my head thinking about how you're my first boyfriend...
[Which only scratches the surface of his overthinking. He might as well be out with the rest of it.] So I don't have any experience and I can be pretty dense about these sorta things. I feel kinda at a disadvantage but more than that, I don't wanna be a crummy boyfriend.
[Ack. He said it. Ichiro's been looking down at his hands while speaking, but he finally looks up to meet Tsumugi's eyes when he's done.]
