"I promise you it will be fine." Lizzy said, trying to be as reassuring as possible. But it was a little difficult given how exhausted it had been trying to explain everything to Chi. Lizzy was relived that it all seemed to finally be coming to an end.

Yet Lizzy also felt a sense of pride. It definitely hadn't been easy, but one of the couples that she'd been trying to make a thing almost since they had met was finally getting together. Just as long as Chi took her advice at least.

"Look, if you want more advice on stuff like this, you can text me." Lizzy offered, a little concerned with how Chi might handle everything if left to her own devices.

Michi hummed with great consideration. Yes, she was stumped with this new knowledge; she wasn't sure how to proceed or interact with Rowan the next time she sees him. Well, if she were to follow Lizzy's coaching, she shouldn't be and theoretically, she could probably act as her usual and it would just be fine. She deliberated for another few, "...Any other advice you can offer?" she began. "Because chances are... he's could text me any time today..."

"WAIT, WHAT?!" Lizzy yelled in a mix of shock and confusion. "Why are you just telling me now!?" The fact that Rowan could text her at any moment completely changed things, especially given the way Chi had reacted to the news of Rowan's crush.

After taking a moment to collect herself, Lizzy let out a sigh. "What might he text you?" She asked, unsure of exactly what Rowan texted Chi, but if Rowan was flirting with Chi, it'd probably be reflected in the text messages. Still, Lizzy wanted to be sure before she gave Chi any extra advice.

Michi seemed to flinch at Lizzy's sudden reaction, nearly driving her to silence. She didn't seem to come out with any response at all, and the silence between the two girls was filled with murmurs that seem to reflect Michi's discomfort. Only after Lizzy spoke again with a calmer voice did Michi respond. "Well. I'm not really sure," she admitted. Sometimes, Rowan just texts her mundane things, other times, invitations, and some others were just asking how she was. Mostly, she responded with short replies, considering she was never a conversationalist over text. "That really depends. Sometimes he just checks in to say hi...?"

Lizzy felt a pang of worry when the voices took over. She shouldn't have snapped at Chi like that, she knew that. But Chi had also withheld vital information, so could you really blame her?

But when Chi did respond Lizzy wanted to bash her head through a wall. How had Chi not realized Rowan was flirting with her if he constantly texted her..

"Hey Chi, can I look at the text messages that he's sent you? Also, you can't say no because I'm doing it anyway." She said, working her way over to the messenger, and finding Rowan's name. And there was a lot of stuff in there. Things Lizzy didn't even know about. It was pretty obvious from the texts Rowan sent Chi that he had a crush on her. And It baffled Lizzy that even with all of this, Chi still couldn't figure out that Rowan had a crush on her.

"Okay, if he texts you, I want you to try to act normal. Flirt with him a little, but don't let him know that you know he has a crush on you. Got it?

"I mean, I wasn't going to say no either way," Michi mumbled. She had nothing to hide from her messages in the first place, so Lizzy rummaging through her inbox would have been no problem at all. That aside, she wasn't sure what was about her messages that Lizzy had to see? Michi was patient, watching Lizzy scroll through her exchanges with Rowan from quite literally, the back of her own mind. She never found anything particular with Rowan's messages but if Lizzy were to be the judge of things, much of Michi's responses were rather lackluster unless it was a joke or something similar. "Define... flirt?" Michi asked. Despite sounding sarcastic, it was an honest question. Flirting never occurred in her vocabulary, and the act itself was... rather foreign to her.

Lizzy took several deep breathes. This was ridiculous. Chi was older then her, and she didn't know about things like flirting or crushes? A part of her felt like Chi was hopeless, but Lizzy wasn't about to give up that easily.

"Well.. Flirting is... You know.." Lizzy said. "It's a way to make him want you more. Let him know you like him, but without saying it out loud... Just give him compliments, text him frist every now and then, and go do things with him." That was the best definition Lizzy could give.

Hopefully Chi understood what she meant. Flirting wasn't so much as a single thing, as it was a way of acting around someone. Then again, given Chi's record Lizzy was fully prepared for all of this to go well over Chi's head.

Michi narrowed her eyes -- or well, visually at least, Lizzy could imagine her doing so. How does that work, she wondered. And what was the point? Rowan was her friend so of course she liked him. Compliments didn't really come from her unless she was trying to get someone to do something in her favor -- something she picked up from her sister when she was younger -- so she wasn't sure how that would go. Texting him first... could be something Michi could work on, but what was se supposed to say? Doing things with Rowan was a given as far as she was concerned. "So... mostly be nice and play a long sort?"

"Ehhh, sort of?" Lizzy said, Chi seemed to have a very basic idea of what to do, even if she didn't understand that in order for it to work she had to proactive in flirting with Rowan. But it was a start at least.

"Think of it more as, helping him along into a relationship with you.. He wants to date you, now you gotta make him want to date you, morree.. That makes sense right?" Lizzy asked. It made sense to her at least, but with Chi it was harder to tell.

Michi hummed thoughtfully, which probably sounded more of a muffled groan the longer Lizzy would hear it. She was trying to process Lizzy's explanation but it all came to Michi as a broken thought process. "Can't this just go straight to saying he wants to date me though? What's with all the the suspense?" she whined. Why does she even have to worry about this in the first place, she really didn't know. "I swear I don't wanna think too hard about this."
