[ She chuckles behind her hand, so tickled at her silliness. ] Oh, I'm just kidding. I don't want to make things too serious on our first date. Though with how cute you are, I might not be able to keep from getting carried away!

[ Monika pushes up, leaning her elbows on the desk so her face can get uncomfortably close to his. ] Besides. I haven't even confessed to you yet. It'd feel wrong not to.
