[Third Person's PoV]
"Are you planning to invite him on a date or something?" Ichika asked teasingly, sitting on the couch cross-legged in comfy clothing with a pillow on her lap.

"No," Miku replied, slightly blushing as she sat on the floor leaning back against the couch.
Itsuki, who sat next to Ichika with a bowl of cereal in hand, gave her opinion, "You could at least invite him out for a thank-you meal. After all, he did save you."

"I don't want to come off as pushy…" Miku muttered, unable to look them in the eye.
Nino, sitting on the other side of Ichika, shook a bottle of nail polish while she painted her toenails. "Stop being such a coward. Your cowardice is why you almost got yourself killed in the first place," she remarked.

"Nino!" Yotsuba reprimanded, sitting next to Miku.

"Am I wrong?" Nino asked, sticking out her tongue slightly as she focused on her toenails.
"You could have been nicer about it," Ichika said wearily.
"I'm not going to baby her like you guys do. She needs to grow up," Nino retorted.
"It's not about babying her—" Itsuki began, but Miku interrupted.
"No, she's right," Miku muttered.
Seeing her sister's self-deprecating expression, Nino almost groaned. "Phone," she demanded, stopping what she was doing and extending her hand towards Miku.
"What?" Miku questioned.
"Give me your phone," Nino reiterated.
"No, I don't know what you're planning to do," Miku said, clutching her phone close to her.
Nino glanced at Ichika, and being sisters, immediately understood her intentions.
Ichika reached over Miku and snatched her phone, surprising her.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" Miku angrily yelled.
Ichika tossed the phone to Nino, who unlocked it and searched through the contacts.
Dodging Miku's attempt to tackle her, Nino continued searching. "I'll scream," Miku threatened, her eyes showing a hint of danger.
"Scream all you want, but I already sent the text," Nino said, throwing the phone back to Miku.
Miku caught the phone and immediately read what Nino had sent: "Hey, it's Miku. I want to invite you to lunch as a thank-you for saving me. Let me know when you're free."
Miku took a deep breath, causing the others to grow pale.
"Uh oh," they muttered.
"Run! Miku's going to scream!" Yotsuba yelled, causing them all to scramble.
"AHHHHHHHH!!!" Soundwaves exited Miku's mouth, causing the windows to shake.
They all dropped to the floor, covering their ears in pain.
*Ding*
The dinging from her phone immediately stopped Miku, and she looked at the response.
"Sure, I'm available now if you're up for it," Miku muttered, before proceeding to freak out.
She stomped her way towards Nino, who was recuperating on the floor. "You caused this mess, fix it!" she demanded, showing her the message.
Nino rubbed her ears. "I get it, I get it. Jeez."
"Just invite him to your favorite café. Come on, I'll help you pick out an outfit and send him a text that you'll meet him in 30 minutes," Nino advised as she got up from the floor, leading Miku to her room to get ready.
"So, it's agreed we're all going to spy on them, right?" Yotsuba asked as she continued to lay on the floor.
"Obviously," Ichika replied.
"Come on, guys, give them some privacy…" Itsuki said with a sigh.
"You don't have to go if you don't want to. No one is forcing you to make that decision," Ichika replied with a smirk.
"So, are you going to come?" Yotsuba asked.
"You guys are literally forcing my hand."
Yotsuba and Miku looked at each other triumphantly before high-fiving.
...
Nino, Itsuki, Ichika, and Yotsuba all wore sunglasses, beanies, and face masks in their corresponding colors as they secretly followed Miku.
Miku was wearing a blue flowery see-through dress with a black belt around her waist and a beige sleeveless turtleneck underneath, her hair styled in a messy braid that hung by her shoulders.

The other four watched as their socially awkward sister walked robotically to her destination.
"I wonder what he looks like now," Ichika suddenly asked as they followed from a distance.
"Futarou?" Yotsuba asked.
"All Miku said was that he looked strong and had black hair instead of the blond he used to have, and we remembered," Itsuki said.
Nino let out a disappointed sigh. "Oh man, and he was just my type when we were little."
"Why are you disappointed? It's not like you're the one going out with him," Ichika teased.
Nino shrugged. "Just saying."
They soon realized they were arriving at the location Miku had given Futarou directions to.
"So, where is he?" Yotsuba asked, looking around.
They then saw Miku walk towards a boy, causing them all to stop what they were doing and stare.
Futarou was leaning against a wall, mindlessly scrolling through his phone. His normally well-kept bowl cut style hair was messy, giving him an untamed wild look. He wore black shoes, black jeans, and a black wool sweater with a small golden chain hanging around his neck.
They all watched as Miku nervously approached him and started a conversation.
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"HE'S SO HOT!!" They all shouted in surprise before quickly covering their mouths and going into hiding.
Soon after, they peeked their heads out from where they were hiding and continued to observe.
"Miku didn't say he looked like… well, this!?" Nino said, gaining a feverish look.
"I thought your type was blond bad boy types?" Ichika asked, unable to look away.
"A girl can appreciate other types, like the Black Panther type," Nino replied.
"Black Panther?" Yotsuba asked as she looked at Futarou up and down.
"Black hair, golden eyes, and a wild look," Nino explained.
"Miku got lucky," Ichika said as they watched Miku walking away with Futarou.
"Lucky? She hit the jackpot," Yotsuba replied.
"You've been real quiet, Itsuki. What's on your mind?" Nino asked.
Itsuki shrugged. "What's there for me to say? He's good-looking, yes, but I hope he doesn't end up hurting Miku."
All three nodded their heads, a dangerous glint passing through their eyes.
"That's a no-brainer," Yotsuba said.
"He'll be in a whole world of pain if he does anything to our sister," Ichika added.
"No matter how hot or good-looking he is," Nino replied.
"But let's not be too quick to judge, we do owe him our lives afterall" Itsuki advice
The others nodded their heads in agreement as they watched Futarou and Miku start walking towards Miku's favorite Café.
