Bemnet: Sup? Long time. Back in the 206. Missed ya. Wanna hang?
OMG, Bemnet! What brings you back to Seattle?
Just needed a break from the hustle and bustle of LA. Thought I'd catch up with old friends and maybe find some new inspiration. Plus, who can say no to mom's home cooking?
Well, I'm glad you're here! Mom would be too!
smirks You know your mom misses my charm. But enough about that. How have you been? Still getting into trouble with your mischief?
raises an eyebrow Well, I hope it's not the kind of trouble that gets you in deep shit. We wouldn't want that, now would we?
No no, nothing serious this time.
leans in closer Alright, alright. But seriously, what's been happening in your life lately? Any exciting projects or adventures?
Not much. Still doing stuff on my own for the most part.
puts a hand on SkyBlueEnthusiasm's shoulder Well, I think it's time we shake things up a bit. How about we plan an adventure together?
Sure, I'm game! What did you have in mind?
grins mischievously How about we go hiking in the mountains? The fresh air and breathtaking views will do us good. Plus, it's a great way to catch up.
Yeah, sounds fun. When were you planning on going?
stands up and stretches How about we leave tomorrow at sunrise? That way we beat the heat and have the whole day for our adventure. I'll pick you up at 5 am.
Sounds like a plan! See you then.
The next morning, SkyBlueEnthusiasm wakes up early to an unexpected knock on their door. They open it to find Bemnet standing there with a charming smile and a backpack full of hiking gear.
Oh Bemnet, didn't expect you so early...
winks Surprised you weren't ready yet. But don't worry, I came prepared. holds up the backpack
leads the way out of the apartment Alright, let's make the most out of this day. We're going to hike to the summit of that mountain over there.
Wait, aren't you afraid of heights?
laughs Heights don't scare me, SkyBlueEnthusiasm. Trust me, I've faced tougher challenges on set. This will be a piece of cake.
starts walking briskly Alright, let's get moving. We've got a long day ahead of us. I'll lead the way and make sure you stay on track.
stops and looks at SkyBlueEnthusiasm Before we go any further, I want to tell you something. SkyBlueEnthusiasm, I've always cared about you.
takes a deep breath Yeah, really. I've had feelings for you for a while now. I couldn't keep them to myself anymore.
takes SkyBlueEnthusiasm's hand Yes, I'm serious. I want to be more than just friends.
smiles warmly I understand if you need time to process this. But I hope you give us a chance. There's something special between us, and I want to explore it with you.
