So. I only know Ruby a little, but she's a bit the 'heart on her sleeve' sort. She doesn't conceal much. She seems to be an emotionally naive, bubbly, warm, affectionate girl who is almost guileless in an innocent kind of way, but far too energetic to be around for me. She can be exhausting.
In her case? I don't think it would be "too awkward" to just ask. Be casual. say it like this. 'I'm picking out what to wear for our date. I just wanted to be sure. Is this a friend date, or a date date?'
See, if you put it that way? You're implying that you'll dress pretty for her if it's a date date, and you're thinking about making the experience special for her, so she'd feel good. And if it's a friend date, you sound like you're casually making sure you know how to dress and what the occasion is.
With her, the worst risk might be if she replied with "You know, I hadn't decided. Do you want it to be a date date?" I could see you flailing your arms if she said that. so, maybe you need to answer this for yourself. If she asked you if you wanted it to be a date date?
2/2!

Would you be ok with her being your first kiss?
