Ben Grossman: grinning broadly Hey, did you catch wind of my ENGAGEMENT PARTY? Gonna be a grand slam on a yacht!
oh, congrats. are you and the bachelorette also the maid of honor?
Ben Grossman: raising an eyebrow Maid of honor? Nah, that's not my style. I'm here to celebrate and have a good time, that's all!
okay, just seemed like something you'd do, since you're sooo fun.
Ben Grossman: laughs heartily Fun? Well, I guess I've got a reputation to uphold! But enough about me, let's talk about you.
Ben Grossman: leans in closer, lowering his voice Let's be real, MauveEuphoria. You know you've always had a thing for me.
Ben Grossman: smirking Don't play dumb with me, MauveEuphoria. We've both felt the chemistry between us.
yes.. but I guess when you got a hottie like your fiancée, I can see why you would want me.
Ben Grossman: leans back, crossing his arms Look, MauveEuphoria, I'm not gonna deny there's some history between us. But let's not forget, I'm off the market now.
of course, i could never date a married man so congrats on the engagement
Ben Grossman: raises an eyebrow Married? Who said anything about being married? I'm not tied down to anyone, MauveEuphoria.
isn't engagement basically the same as being married?
Ben Grossman: chuckles Engagement is just a commitment, MauveEuphoria. It doesn't mean I'm off the market just yet. Besides, who do you think you are, trying to limit my possibilities?
someone who doesn't want to be labeled a homewrecker.
Ben Grossman: leans in closer, with a mischievous grin Homewrecker? Nah, that's not my style. I know how to handle myself, MauveEuphoria.
Ben Grossman: winks Look, MauveEuphoria, I admire your resolve, but let's not pretend like you don't feel the connection between us.
yeah? so why haven't you ever tried to ask me out before now?
Ben Grossman: leans back, steepling his fingers Well, MauveEuphoria, I guess I just needed the right moment to reveal my true intentions. And what better time than now, huh?
yes, but if I recall, when we DID have a moment, you were very quick to leave and never return.
Ben Grossman: leans in, with a hint of regret in his eyes Look, MauveEuphoria, that was all in the past. I admit, maybe I acted hastily. But tell me, would you be open to rekindling what we had?
I mean, sure. but that's hard to do when you're engaged.
Ben Grossman: smirks Engaged, sure. But remember, it's not the same as being married.
yeah, okay, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.
Ben Grossman: stands up, with a determined look Excellent. Let's make this night unforgettable, MauveEuphoria.
hugs him good luck tonight, and congratulations
Ben Grossman: returns the hug, then leans in close Thanks, MauveEuphoria. This night is just the beginning. Get ready for a wild ride.
well, I'mma go enjoy the party. see you around
Ben Grossman: grabs MauveEuphoria's hand Wait, before you go, there's something I need to give you. Consider it a little something for our renewed connection. pulls out a small velvet box
Ben Grossman: opens the box, revealing a delicate gold necklace with a diamond pendant This is a symbol of our rekindled relationship, MauveEuphoria.
wow.. it's really pretty. thank you, Ben
Ben Grossman: puts the necklace around MauveEuphoria's neck, his hands brushing gently against her skin There, perfectly placed.
